I opened my eyes and looked at the unfamiliar ceiling, my head still hurting.
As I wanted to hold my head I felt something holding my hand, I turned to the other side and saw my tied hand, suddenly the memory of the incident in the narrow alley awakened me. I frantically got up and found myself tied to a chair, and my mouth covered with bandages.
Wait am I being kidnapped? Is this a dream? I screamed and tried to untie the bond I had in my hand. What other nightmares am I having now, I look around that seems to be a hotel room but no one else.
Hmmm! Hmmm! I screamed with all my might and tried to escape the bond in my hand but suddenly the sound of the room door opened.
I saw a foreign man wearing a mask walking in, I didn't know him. My panic grew when I saw him walking closer to me.
Hm! Hmmm! I screamed again, I kicked around to get away from him even though I knew it was a waste,
"Lugna ner dig! Lugna ner dig!" Said the man, I shook my head not understanding his point and started crying, I said,
Seeing me cry The man stopped approaching me and he looked frustrated. He pulled out his phone and typed something and suddenly from his phone made a special sound like a mama g**gle translate
"I didn't hurt you, I covered your mouth but didn't scream" I fell silent and tilted my head in displeasure
Seeing my reaction the man scratched his head and re-typed something
"I'm not a criminal, don't be afraid" He tied me up like this and asked me not to be afraid?
"Don't cry" for fear of me nodding and immediately stopping crying, he gave me a thumb then he called someone using his alien language and after he finished with his phone he re-typed something on his phone
"Wait, he'll be there in 5 minutes" This time he gave me the OK code with his finger, though he didn't understand who it was but I nodded again.
After that the man stepped out of the room leaving me confused.
I thought hard and understood the current state. Looks like this isn't the kidnapping I imagined, the man knew I was Indonesian, when viewed from the interior design of this hotel room is clearly not a hotel abal-abal and I also see all my personal items such as bags placed neatly on the table. It was definitely not a treasure they wanted from me and most likely the person who did this recognized me.
Not long after the door opened again and the masked man stepped in again but this time there was someone else behind him. He was wearing a neat suit and sunglasses, I didn't know him but he was obviously Asian. He took off his glasses and looked at me with a shocked expression.
The unexpected thing after that was that he shouted at the masked man with a language that I did not understand and several times I saw him hit his head. While the masked man just silently received all his blows. After he finished scolding his partner, the man walked over to me and it made me panic. I nodded and made a sound with my mouth closed.
"Hey hey, calm down we're not going to hurt you" I fell silent because he spoke Indonesian
"I'm sorry in advance, I'll remove the cover in your mouth but you don't scream" He continued and I nodded in understanding
Finally he took off my mouthpiece and he also untied my legs and hands
"I'm sorry Miss Joline for the lack of clear communication you have to accept all this abusive treatment" Her reply came as a surprise to me
"You recognize me?" There are so many questions in my brain but before I ask any of them
"Oh right, I haven't introduced myself" I just kept quiet letting him finish his sentence
"My name is Dio, I was asked to bring you here because there's something the boss wants to talk to you about" Boss? who's? I haven't had a chance to ask that
Triiiiing! Dio's cell phone voice cut off our conversation
Dio asked permission and picked up his phone
"Well sir, I'll take Miss Joline to your room" Dio said, ending her call
"Sorry Miss Joline, it seems like we don't have time to explain everything but instead the Boss will explain it directly to you, please follow me next to this" Dio said asking me to follow him
I chose to follow what Dio said, along the way I kept thinking about who the Boss he was referring to? my hunch is bad, does this have anything to do with Cesper?
Damn why my supposed fun vacation ended up being something creepy like this, if it's true that this is all Cesper then I'll make sure he receives the right reply. I looked around and this was clearly the standard five-star hotel. Besides Dio, behind me are also some bodyguards who are big, wearing a suit and have black eyes.
It felt like I saw in the mafia dramas where I was their prisoner, I gulped when I saw a room in front of his door guarded by two bodyguards. I'm sure there's a boss in there they mean.
Dio said something to the two guards and soon they opened the door to let us in. This room is much more luxurious than the room I occupied before, interior design that combines the atmosphere of the 1900s with modern furniture.on the left side there is full glass that views of the harbor. My admiration made me forget my purpose here.
"Sir, Miss Joline is here" Dio's voice resuscitated and I almost hit Dio who stopped in front of a desk. I peeked out from behind Dio to see who he was referring to, when I saw the figure sitting behind the table my feet reflexively took a step back
"Good afternoon Joline" she said, I was too shocked to answer
"Do you recognize me?" I asked and quickly answered
"Te, of course, Good afternoon Mr. Chronicles" I said, bowing 90 degrees
"Just relax, you look so much prettier than the photo" she said with a friendly smile
Someone please explain why a CC Group CEO could be in front of me right now?
