"Let's just say I believe you, ma'am!" gintani replied, though in her heart she was still gripped by all of Jessica's words. But one is for sure, whatever the form, Gintani is never curious and has no interest in finding out.
"I'm sure if Ilona comes back with bad intentions, be careful Gin!" Jessica warns Gintani.
Gintani smiles. "Thank you for your attention, Ma'am. I never knew Ilona myself. However, whatever had happened between him and the Argha, it was only a past. And we agreed to never discuss the past. For us, looking to the future, it's far more important than being lulled by the past." Gintani tries to be wise in response to Ilona's arrival.
Jessica's cynical smile expanded at both corners of her lips. "You don't know what Ilona looks like, Gin. But, yes, it is ! I just wish you could take care of each other." Jessica took her breath back. "If there's nothing to talk about anymore, excuse me!" jessica said, about to get out of the chair she was sitting in.
"Mom!" Gintani held Jessica's hand. "Thank you for the time."
Jessica smiled, "Together, Gin."

APA Architecture
Throughout the night, Bram could not close his eyes as he remembered Ilona. Wasn't it! Actually, it wasn't Ilona's shadow that was the reason she couldn't sleep. But the words of Ilona who wanted to take Argha from his wife.
Although Bram felt sorry for Ilona, Bram could not justify the actions of Ilona who wanted to get Argha in any way. Perhaps, Bram used to be able to tolerate the deed, because after all, Argha was a single man. But not for now.
Bram kept pacing back and forth in his room. He was still thinking about how a wise way to convey Ilona's intentions back to this city. "Will Argha believe me, if I tell Ilona her true intentions?" murmuring Bram. With determination, Bram went out to go to his boss' room.
Outside, he seemed to be frowning his forehead as he saw another person sitting at the secretary's desk. "Well, where's Nadhifa going, Ris?" bram asked Riska the deputy secretary.
"Mbak Nadhifa has a leave of absence for several days, sir. He said he had business first" Riska replied.
Bram was stunned to hear Riska's reply. This must have something to do with my words last night, Bram's mind as he sighed.
Come on, come home from the office, I'll see him. Now, there's something more important I need to take care of. Bram again swung his steps towards Argha's room.
Geck... Geck... Tok... !
Bram knocked on the door of Argha's room, but there was no answer from inside.
Geck... Geck... H.... !
Once again Bram knocked, but things still remained the same. After a third knock, Bram finally opened the door to Argha's study.
Chequek!
The door opened, Bram poking his head behind the door. Trying to find the whereabouts of his boss. But Argha's seat looked empty. Maybe he was in his private room?
Finally, Bram ventured to open the door of the room. Bram saw Argha standing in front of a huge window. Habits that he always does when his heart is troubled.
"Dhh...." Bram sighed, he then walked up to Argha and stood to the right of his boss.
Argha glanced as he felt someone standing beside him. A moment later, he again turned his gaze straight on the increasingly congested streets of the capital
"It's almost 12 noon, don't you want me to order lunch?" bram asked, looking straight at the highway below.
"No need! We'll have lunch later in the office cafeteria" replied Argha flatly.
No more cave language came out of their mouths. That means, they are in serious mode today.
"Did Gintani ask you something about last night?" bram asked carefully, afraid of offending his best friend.
"He's not the type of person who always wants to know the affairs of others," replied Argha, still the henchmen pay attention to the traffic under the vehicle.
"So.., to him, you're still someone else huh, hehehe...!" joked Bram, trying to melt the atmosphere.
"Don't you say, you! He did not ask because we had agreed not to discuss the past" replied Argha, furious.
"Dhh...." Argha took a breath and blew it slowly. "I don't know if Ilona's presence is bothering her or not? But my anger last night, made him very scared. And I feel guilty about it."
"Then, what are you gonna do? Do you know if Ilona came just un_"
"Can you not talk about him anymore? To me, he is just a past. And my future is Gintani. I don't want to make a mistake a second time. I don't want my future ruined just because part of my past is coming back."
Bram patted his best friend's shoulder. "I'm proud of you, man!" said it. "Oh yeah, after lunch, we have a meeting with Richard and Mr. Hanzel. You better prepare yourself!" continued Bram.
Argha only smiled faintly in response to the words of his best friend.

Meanwhile, in the city park. Gintani begins to leave the park after a few minutes of Jessica's disappearance from her sight. He glanced at the clock that was coiled around his right wrist. The time shows at 12:21, the time has come for dzuhur. Gintani decided to go to the mosque opposite the park.
15 Minutes passed. After folding back the face and tidying the hijab, Gintani immediately came out. Before going home, he decided to buy food. Today, she's going back to her apartment, and she certainly doesn't have anything for lunch.
"Assalamu'alaikum, huh? Gintan's at the minimarket, Mas want to be cooked what's for dinner?" ask Gintani to her husband.
"What a hell, Gin! Whatever your cooking is, it's always good" said Argha on the phone.
"Hmmm..start the fight back. Yes, Gintan closed yes, Mas! Assalamu'alaikum!"
Gintani hung up. He went back down the shelves that were storing food. Half an hour later, Gintani came out of the minimarket. While he was waiting for his online taxi, Gintani accidentally saw two women who were fighting on the side of the road. Gintani frowned when she realized she knew the two women.
"The line? Jessica's mom?" muttered. Gintani immediately ran over to them.
"Mr Jessi, Celine..What is this?"
Instead of answering, Celine pushed Jessica back a few steps.
"Eh, lookout....!"
Gintani ran towards Jessica when she saw a motorbike passing so fast. Gintani immediately pushes Jessica's body, but she herself is unable to evade the impact of the two-wheeled vehicle.
Accidents cannot be avoided. Gintani sling bag stuck in the handlebars of the motor until he was dragged as far as a few meters. In a semi-conscious state, Gintani immediately released her sling bag.
Brugh!
Gintani's body rolled over until it finally stopped crashing into the road barrier.
"Movie!"
Jessica immediately ran towards Gintani who had been covered in blood. "PLEase..! Help me!" scream Jessica.
People immediately swarmed around Jessica who was hugging Gintani's head. His hands began to get wet by the red viscous liquid. "Blood.." murmured Jessica.
"Please call an ambulance, please call an ambulance!" pinta Jessica to the people.
Suddenly...
"We're taking my car, ma'am!"
Seriate....
