Long Journey of Tough Women
93. Habib's Awe to The Master

To admire someone is to acknowledge and believe wholeheartedly that the person we admire is trustworthy and reliable in every way.

Maybe we'll say too naive to trust someone too much. But we need to remember that the attitude of trust is a form of concrete action in giving an honor. Eda Sally

"Of course I believe you, sir." Habib answered without understanding the meaning of the question.

"If you believe me, then don't worry if we don't hire a bodyguard because I trust you, and I just want you to take good care of my wife." Erik said.

"I will look after the young lady with my whole life, sir." Habib said with complete confidence.

"I don't doubt your love for my wife. I know you love him. And I've seen that since the first time I met you. Therefore, there is no man I would trust to look after my wife but you. I know you're very sincere. So, don't ever intend to refuse my request, and never let me down." Said Erik.

"Today, in front of my master I promise, that I will place the young lady above everything related to my personal affairs." Habib said as he bowed and saluted.

"It doesn't have to be so formal, baby. I've looked at you like my own brother. So you don't have to call our masters and our ladies." Said Erik.

"No sir! I feel more comfortable calling you. With such a call, it would make me to always be aware that I should not mess around in looking after and protecting the young lady and the young master." Habib explained his point.

"If it were like that, I wouldn't stand in the way of your intentions. But I hope that you and Alika do not feel sorry for us. What you want, don't be ashamed to say." Said Erik.

"Good young master. I'll remember what you said." Habib.

Alika who had just finished her work in the kitchen immediately joined them.

"I'm sorry if it bothers me. I just want to say that dinner's ready." Alika said politely.

"Thank you Alika." Erik smiled at Alika.

They then headed towards the dining table with Erik's hands still embracing his little wife as if afraid of losing.

They eat with no one talking. Alika and Habib chose to eat without a sound because the master did not invite to speak.

After eating, the four of them sat in the living room while talking about the incident that happened this afternoon.

"Master! According to the master, who was the man who had come?" Habib was still curious.

"I can't be sure who it is. But judging from the way they asked, it meant that they were not my father's men, or Mr. Zain's. Maybe someone else did this." Said Erik.

"Why is it that you are sure that it is not the hand of the great lord or lord Zain?" Ask Habih wonder.

"Because my father was a typical person who never gave mercy. If it was my father's man, of course something happened to the young lady. And I don't want that to happen to my wife." Erik said as he tightened his embrace on Yuana. He was really scared if anything happened to his little wife.

"What if it's Mr Zain's man?" Habib asked curious about the analysis of his master. He thinks his master is too smart.

"I've never met Mr. Zain in person. But from your stories I heard, Mr. Zain was only a pawn run by my father, but he still had compassion. Had it been Mr. Zain's men, they would have recognized you immediately because Mr. Zain would have told you your characteristics. Plus, they must have taken you away." said Erik.

"Very sure. My father doesn't like wasting time. And he won't let go of his enemy if it's found." Answer Erik.

"In that case, who would dare to go after us? Is there anyone else you suspect?" Ask Habib.

"I haven't confirmed the person I suspect. But I'll find out for myself. You guys don't have to worry. Because tomorrow after I get home from work, I'm gonna put a cctv all over this corner of the house. So I can also keep an eye on you from the office." Said Erik.

"I'm scared." That was all Yuana could say after staying quiet for quite a while and listening.

"Not to be afraid, baby. There's Habib who will always protect you. You can also play, right? Habib and Alika will also take care of you. Don't underestimate Alika. Although he was always in the kitchen, but I knew that he had quite good martial skills, not inferior to Habib." Said Erik.

Yuana, Habib, and Alika widened their eyes in disbelief at what Erik had just said. Because they had never told Erik about the abilities they had.

"Where did you know I could run? Didn't we ever tell you?" Ask Alika wonder.

"Don't be too surprised, Alika. I must really know the background of the person who will always be with me and my wife. I wouldn't easily trust a man to live in my house if he didn't trust me." Said Erik steady.

"So where do you know about me being able to defend?" Asked Yuana astonished. At such a time, Yuana's intelligent brain was unable to think clearly.

"You forgot that I'm your brother's best friend in college? There's nothing your brother hasn't told you about you so unfortunately he told you." Erik said as he pinched his wife's tiny nose.

"So you've known all this time?" Ask Yuana.

"Why are you surprised? Someone else I'm just trying to find out, let alone my wife. Do you think I wouldn't be curious and find out about my wife? I've even found out in detail about your habits and likes." Erik said without caring about the existence of Habib and Alika because he had been down the face of Yuana with his activities.

Yuana, embarrassed by Habib and Alika, immediately covered her face with both hands. However, Erik locked both of his hands and continued his activation.

Habib and Alika, who understood the situation before them, immediately got up and headed for the room to each of them. They do not want to be mosquitoes that will interfere with activities that are temporarily walking.

I am really amazed by the young master. He's really smart. He even knew in detail about my background and Alika. Though intelligent, but very humble. I am grateful to be allowed to stay in this house. A house filled with happiness without caring about the problems that are being faced. Habib
