After contacting the cafe manager, Boy opened his phone to simply reply to a message from his motorcycle gang members. Satisfied with that, Boy again turned on the CCTV footage to see Khaira's whereabouts.
"Well, where is he?" Boy opened some CCTV footage from a different place on the first floor, but still did not find the girl he was looking for.
"Excuse me, here's the food, sir."
Boy was surprised to hear a voice he knew so well, did not want to be caught, he quickly put on his hat and glasses while bowing his head.
Boy can see Khaira starting to serve food and drinks on the table carefully, but the girl suddenly accidentally drops her spoon on the floor, made Boy quickly duck to pick up the spoon.
Unexpectedly Khaira reflexes came down to take the spoon simultaneously, but their heads were actually hit to make the two scream in pain.
"Okay, sorry, sir." Khaira stood up again while rubbing her slightly aching head.
Unlike Khaira, though his head hurt a little, Boy tried not to make a sound and did not lift his face, he really did not want to be seen by the girl in front of him.
Not without reason, after hearing the words of Zafran at that time, Boy felt himself so bad for a girl like Khaira, even to show his face he did not have the guts, he said, let's just say he's a loser at the moment, but it's better than having to get Khaira in trouble again because of his identity which is a Bad Boy.
"This, sir, I've changed the spoon, please, sir," Khaira said, throwing a friendly smile that Boy could not see because he was blocked by the hat he had pulled to cover his face.
After Khaira left, Boy breathed a sigh of relief and raised his face again. "Hufh, almost," he said and began to eat his food voraciously.

The clock has now arrived, as usual Boy back to follow Khaira far behind so as not to be caught in the rearview mirror and make the girl suspicious. Along the way Boy monitored the entire side of the road if anyone wanted to re-injure the girl.
Until the moment Khaira arrived and put his motorbike into the fence of his house, Boy stopped with a feeling of relief. Being able to make sure that Khaira is safe at home is now something to be happy for her.
"Good rest, Ra," he said smilingly as he looked at Khaira who had now entered his house.
"Excuse me, do you live here?" Two men in police uniforms suddenly appeared behind him.
"No, sir, I was just visiting for a while" Boy replied.
"Sorry, we received a report from one of the residents that you often come here and tail a girl, for that, for security's sake, we have to take you to the police station to be checked."
"What's? Sorry, sir, I'm not trailing, I'm just being ...."
"You can explain at the police station later, now come with us."
"But, Mr ...."
Although not willing, Boy was forced to finally follow the police into the office. Inwardly, Boy confirmed the police charge, because in fact he always followed Khaira wherever the girl went, but his wits refused, because the goal was only to keep and not interfere.
When he arrived at the police station, inexplicably the feeling of Boy immediately not calm when thinking about Khaira, he felt unbearable to leave Khaira that night, but usually when the night was late, he'll go back to his house.
"I'm sorry, sir, am I allowed to call my friend for a second, it's about someone's safety" Boy said.
At first the police objected but after trying hard to persuade the police, Boy was finally allowed to contact his friend . He wanted to ask Ifan to take his place to stand guard at Khaira's house tonight.

Khaira arrived home at 10:15 p.m. He immediately landed his body on the sofa right next to his friend who was busy watching TV because he was very tired.
"What's that, Ra?" shaza asked as he looked at the paper bag still hanging in Khaira's hand.
"It's a gift from my grandfather, Sa, cobain, deh!" Khaira took out a few snacks from inside the paper bag.
"Whose grandfather? Isn't Opa you've been dead a long time?"
"Grandfather Abah, Sa. His father Aisyah aunty, he happened to have a tausiyah schedule in one of the pesantren in this city, so he came and stopped by the cafe after the maghrib prayer earlier," explained Khaira and Shaza nodded his head.
Tok tok tok tok
Khaira and Shaza instantly silently looked at each other when they heard the knocking on the door. For a moment they were silent and did not move from the sofa, until several times the sound of knocking on the door continued to sound unceasing.
"Is that Grandpa Abah?" Khaira immediately got up from the sofa and went to the front door leaving Shaza.
Khaira did not immediately open the door, she chose to peek through the window to make sure. There was a man with a white peci and black jack standing behind him.
"Eh, look like Grandpa Abah." Khaira immediately opened the door because she felt it was her grandfather.
"Grandfather A...." Khaira stopped her words when she saw the man turn around.
"You who? A.." - A...." Not finished Khaira asked, the man quickly covered Khaira's mouth and nose with a handkerchief that had been anesthetized until the girl was unconscious.

"Rho? How long was it outside?" Shaza who felt Khaira had been out for too long finally caught up with the friend. However, it was not Khaira that he found, but a door that was wide open and there was no one there.
"Khaira, Khaira!" Calling Shaza several times, his face now looked so worried and panicked
***
A few hours had passed, Boy had just finished going through the interrogation stage when a phone call for him went off again.
"Hello, Ifan, how?"
"Boss, Khaira is gone, boss!"
"What?"
Boy clasped his hand, without waiting for Ifan to finish his words, Boy immediately ran away from the police station. He did not care about the police who had not allowed him to leave, all he had in mind right now was Khaira.
