If You Met Me First...

If You Met Me First...
Thea and Hugo at the Cafe


The Cafe One Stop Manhattan New York


Thea had arrived at the cafe mentioned by Hugo Melker and the girl ordered coffee and waited for the man to arrive.


"I seem to be part of it." muttered Thea as she sipped her coffee.



Thea Ramadan


The phone rang and the girl smiled and accepted. "Hi Stefan's. How's England?" greet Thea to her twin sister who works at Land Rover Ltd in Whiteley Coventry UK.


"Well, this is how it is, being saturated with design... Need refreshing." replied Stefan who works as a machine engineering and is taking S2 at Coventry University in the Department of Manufacturing and Engineering.


"Work or college design?" ask Thea.


"Two - both because the plan I will make as thesis material. How about yourself? Your job as a lawyer? Mas Nelson and Nadya are all right?"


"Alhamdulillah is fine..."


"Alhamdulillah. What about the case of your client who was the author ?"


"It has been cleared of all charges for not being proven to do so..."


"Beware Thea, because your work is very risky. Nelson's protecting you, right?"


"Alhamdulillah Stephen. I work in a suitable place and Nelson's mas protects me as long as I keep working in his corridors." Thea's brown eyes see Hugo's arrival inside and her heart thumping... what a strange beat ... Is it because that guy looks good?


"What's Thea ?" stefan asked who heard his sister go silent. Stefan was fifteen minutes older than Thea.


"Eat my lunch comes Stefan..."


"OKAY. Have a good lunch. Don't get too suspended." said Stefan.


"You too's. Spirit of the thesis."


"i will's. Love you Thea." by Stefan.


"Love you too Stefan." Thea turns off her calls as Hugo sits in front of her.


The man slightly raised his eyebrows when he heard his lawyer say a friendly word to a man named Stefan. It is only natural that Thea Ramadhan has a lover because she is beautiful and attractive.


"I'm sorry I'm a little late Miss Ramadhan. It's hard to find parking at lunchtime..." Hugo reached out his hand and greeted Thea.


"It's okay. I was the one that arrived too early in the morning. Will you order food ?"


Hugo nodded then called out to the waiter. After ordering his food and drink, the man looked at Thea fixedly. "We had lunch first Miss Ramadhan. Our full stomachs are just having a serious chat."


"As far as you are, Mr. Melker."


"Do you have any business in court or your other clients ?" ask Hugo.


"No, today I don't have much work and I did make time for you."


"Do I have a charge ?" hugo's smile.


"It's not a formal meeting, Mr. Melker. But if you want us to charge, yes no problem" replied Thea straightforwardly.


Hugo laughing. "Okay, I'll send you the consultation fee..."


Thea smiled. "No need for Mr. Melker..."


"But I forced Miss Ramadan. Let me call secretary Nelson later..." The two stopped talking when Hugo's order came.


***


Thea and Hugo enjoy coffee after lunch. The girl was waiting for Hugo to talk about the photo.


"The man was Jovan Malkovich." said Hugo. "He was a big-time criminal in Serbia and one of the people we had to arrest at the time. When I was in the army..." Hugo looked at Thea who looked unsurprised. "You already know it..."


"I already know that you know when you are silent to see the photo I gave you." replied Thea calmly. "I mean, I didn't know who the guy was yet but I know you know him. And I investigated myself and knew who that man was."


"Then ?"


"Then I concluded a little bit that either you or Mrs Melker knew Jovan Malkovich well and you both knew him very well. " Thea stared flatly at Hugo.


"What's on your mind, Miss Ramadhan?"


"Are we talking the same thought?" reply Thea.


"That Jovan most likely killed Bila?" answer Hugo.


"That's one possibility because the FBI and Interpol don't have Jovan Malkovich's DNA until it's still unknown who owns the DNA from Sper*ma another one besides yours, Mr. Melker."


"Interpol doesn't have Jovan Malkovich's DNA? What about the Russian and Serbian databases?"


"Are you aware that you are dealing with a country that is known to be difficult to ask for information ? Of course they don't want to give it away." replied Thea.


Hugo seemed to think. "What if I get Jovan Malkovich's DNA and you guys can test it, compare and capture it ?"


"How?"


"To what extent is your investigation miss Ramadan?" Hugo looked into Thea's brown eyes with a glance. "Do you also know the strip club*tis the man who is in the debit card data When ?"


This time Thea was surprised.


"Miss Ramadhan, not only are you curious, I am as her husband. And as a writer of crime novels, of course I use my investigative skills."


"Are we going to work together?" tanya Thea was still hesitating.


"If we have the same goal of knowing who is the affair when and alasana kill him, yes surely we should cooperate with each other, Miss Ramadhan. You also want to clear my name right?" hugo said firmly.


Thea seemed to think. Bang Omar and Bang Billy can't get close to Jovan Malkovich, but if Hugo Melker can get the suspect's DNA, why don't we work together ?


"All right, Mr. Melker. Let's work together." Thea and Hugo shake hands. "By the way, who did you break into that club ?" asked Thea after shaking hands.


Hugo smiled smirk. "My manager. Larry Hughes."


Thea gawking.
