"Yank, are you ready?" ask Tom when he goes to court.
"Kok arrived - arrived lemes yes Bang." replied Maudy.
"Why gold?"
"His mind went where - where Bang."
"Yes, you better not come, so that later you will be there."
"No, I'm in Bang. I will speak before the judge, based on the evidence I fear. If we are declared wrong, we will be separated from the prison bars. We're not the same anymore - and I'm pregnant."
"Don't think like that, we won't be in jail. You know, the police are clear, they're the ones who prolong things."
"Is it enough for the trial?"
"I hope so, if they don't demand much. Believe me brother, justice will be on our side."
"Yes Bang, let's go yuk."
"OK."
*****
"Fuck, no more lawyers?" ask Papah Hadi.
"No, we're facing it together, right, baby?" said Tomi.
"Yes Bang, Papah calm down." said Maudy.
"Father is worried about your pregnancy, afraid of why - napa."
"Relax Pah, our son. Like your Mother's Father, isn't it, dear Brother?"
"Yes right" Tomi said.
"Jude, we're in."

All stood up, as the judge entered the courtroom. The two Axel's parents, who had been present with a lawyer.
From afar the two were so very cynical, as if feeling the most righteous. Tomi and Maudy, just smiled thinly and looked at the calm face of the two.
"We will win." whispered Tomi.
"For Brother Johan and Sister Yuli, please come forward" said the Judge.
The two sat down in front of the Judge, and were ready to answer some questions, from the case that befell their son.
"Brother Johan and Sister Yuli, are the parents of the late Axel. Who was found guilty in this case, but you feel this is unfair, why?" ask the Judge.
"We feel that this is not fair to our son. Especially stated as a suspect, the real evidence of our son died because it was encouraged by Tomi's brother" said Mr. Johan.
"But here, the deceased died because he was accidentally hit by a large truck. And Brother Tomi too, accidentally. The CCTV footage is clear. It was the beginning of the incident, the deceased followed the car driven by Brother Tomi. Means the deceased has planned something, and indeed there is an intention to harm both. But baby, even his own life is floating away."
"Sorry, your majesty, we as parents, want justice, so that our son is calm there. And if the woman, Maudy, hadn't married the man who killed our son, our son would still be alive. From here, we want their justice to be punished." said Ms. Yuli.
"Sister Yuli, do you think the judge will immediately convict? not because before the evidence is gathered much, I will not directly impose punishment on both. And here, it's clear that your son is the real culprit."
"But this is not fair, your honor."
"For the two of you enough, please sit."
"Sorry, my majesty, here I feel that my client is, as he looked down upon, completely oppressed by justice. I feel like there is a legal game here. Sorry, Your Majesty."
"You do not talk carelessly in front of the Judge, it could be the two of you who will replace the position of the deceased" said the Judge.
"Sorry your honor" he said.
"Brother Tomi, I ask you to come forward."
Tomi sits in front of the judge, who was sworn in first. Tomi looks relaxed, compared to Mr. Johan and Ms. Yuli.
"How long have you known the deceased?" ask Judge.
"I know him because he's my wife's ex-boyfriend" Tomi replied.
"What had a grudge before?"
"Not your Majesty."
"Because of love."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"What before the incident, the brother with the deceased had met?"
"Here is His Majesty."
"Where?"
"The deceased came to my office."
"Can you tell me, a meeting with the deceased?"
"Whoever, Your Majesty, the deceased came to see me and said, If a real man, do not take a woman from another man. If a real man, do not damage a relationship until it breaks up, and leave a wound on the person he hurt. If it's a real man, it will give up and return what is not his. " said Tomi who remembers in detail Axel's words.
"There again?"
"Well, what time did the deceased say before the attack?"
"I went down, came to the late Majesty, I just said what other matters would be explained, because it was clear that my wife preferred her husband."
"Good, enough."
"Thank you, your majesty" Tomi said.
"Sister Maudy. "
Maudy came forward and was sworn in first, before answering a question from the Judge and telling him truthfully.
"Sister Maudy, are you healthy today?"
"Alhamdulillah be well, Your Majesty."
"You're pregnant?"
"Ready, Your Majesty."
"Tell me about your relationship with the deceased."
"Whoever Your Majesty, my relationship with the deceased is a former lover's spouse. We've known her for a long time, and our relationship ended after I married Bang Tomi."
"That means you're cheating?"
"Everything is Your Highness, but originally it was after marriage. Because I got married, but over time, I decided to leave him, but he didn't want to."
"What before the incident, the deceased came to you?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"What did he say?"
"The deceased said, You are evil Maudy, I sacrificed a lot for you. But you chose instead to be with him, I now had a lot of money, until I bet my college, until I decided to work. But you chose him instead, when I expected you to leave him, that's what he told me Your Majesty." Maudy mimicked Axel's words.
"There again?"
"Sorry, Your Majesty, this is all."
"Here, you hit the head of the deceased while the two were fighting?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, but I did it for a defense."
"You're conscious?"
"Every one is aware, Your Majesty, seeing the deceased does not want to let go of my husband. And I watched how he stabbed my husband, but his head hurt."
"Okay, you can come back."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"The video that I saw, is this is a proof, that this video recording is the answer to Axel's death case" Judge said.
"Sorry, Your Honor, I want to interrupt" Axel's parents' lawyer said.
"I'm talking, you're not politely interrupting the judge."
"Sorry Your Majesty."
"Both victims cannot be made suspects, because they do so in self-defense. And Axel's death, is purely the accidental death of Tomi's brother, based on evidence from CCTV cameras. And Brother Maudy was also the same, the beating in self-defense as the deceased continued to beat Tomi's brother. I decided, this thing is closed. Geck.. Tok.." said the Judge while knocking the hammer.
"No, Judge, that's not fair. You must have paid the judge to blame my son, hiks.hiks..you are evil." cried Mother Yuli.
Tomi and Intan felt relieved, Papah Hadi was the same. Victory favors the son and his son-in-law.
"Alhamdulillah Maudy, Om Tomi turns out the case is clear" Susanti said.
"Thank you for helping out with prayer" Tomi said.
"Same - same with me." said Susanti.
Mr. Johan, Ms. Yuli and her lawyer came up to them with their cynical gazes approaching, but Tomi, Maudy and Papah Hadi were normal.
"Remember, now you are winning, but God's trial is fairer" said Mr. Johan immediately left.
"Had known to lose, there was no shame vein. That one there, get a punishment to go to hell" said Maudy annoyed.
"You can't talk like that, we pray that they'll come to their senses" Tomi said.
"I've sprained om, the same model of people so be it."
"His name is also a parent defending his son, already let us go home. If here the heat continues to be hot" said Tomi.
*****
"You've paid a lot, but still losing can't win this case" Johan told his lawyer.
"Sorry Mr. Ma, the problem is that the evidence they have is very strong, whereas we do not have strong evidence. So don't blame me, want to change lawyers or other lawyers also if this is the same as going to lose" said the lawyer
