Love Agusd The Handsome Cat
122. Five Star

"What's? That's not true! She lies. Maia!" pekik Archi who did not accept Maia's statement.

"Please relax!" the Chief Judge.

"Relax Archi." With a gentle whisper Agust embraced the crying Archi.

"Well take Archi out. Let him calm down." ask dad.

"I didn't take it out." said Archi firmly wiping his tears.

Sitting next to Mr. Ludwig, Mr. Nicholas gave a sly smile glancing from the corner of his eye towards Archi.

"I don't accept the witness statement" suddenly in a cold tone Jeremy spoke. Surprised his lawyer team as well as Mr. Nicholas.

"Mr Jeremy!" whispered one of the lawyers gave a code for Jeremy not to continue his statement.

"What do you mean by not accepting witness statements?" ask the presiding judge who heard Jeremy's statement.

"What he said was a lie. Because Archi never approached me first let alone teased me. I did that purely because I love Archi, I've loved Archi for a long time." Jeremy honestly and clearly surprised everyone.

"Jeremy!" archi's inner self was slightly touched by Jeremy's attitude that even rejecting Maia's true testimony could ease the punishment for her.

Archi looked at Jeremy. With his sad eyes Jeremy met face to face with Archi. Seems sincerity in him. Although he has done evil but actually behind it all there is great love for Archi in his heart.

His lawyers were sitting in a doldrums, feeling they had lost the war. After hearing all the witness statements. The trial is closed with the next agenda of the Verdict which will be held in the next week.

"How can you say that. We have tried to alleviate the accusations against you. But you destroyed everything."

"I told you. I don't want to demonize Archi. He's innocent, don't leave my guilt to him. The only guilty person here, only me. Not him." Bela Jeremy is undaunted.

"I don't want you to be able to get the judge to ease the prison term for Jeremy." Mr. Nicholas warned his lawyers. "I'll pay you more if you succeed."

"We will do our best" said one of the lawyers.

Jeremy walking will be back in the prisoner's car. It was then that he accidentally crossed paths with Archi. Archi threw his face away, not wanting to see Jeremy. But Jeremy throughout his journey he continued to look towards Archi until his maniknik can not see Archi again.

"You're okay, right?" ask Agust.

"Yes." Yeah."

"We're going home now." take Dad. They also went home.

A few days later at the office.

"Arachis!!!" call someone when Archi will enter the office building.

Archi turned his head and was very surprised when he saw his friends running after him.

"Susan, Andini, Icha!" Archi was happy to see his friends coming.

"Why are you here early in the morning? not work?" Tanya Archi's.

"We want to work." they answered. Makes Archi feel confused.

"We accepted work here tau." said Susan.

"Make sure Mr. Ridwan is behind it."

"Hahaha.iya." answered Icha.

"When you're in court, we're here for a test and an interview."

"Preet...doang formality right?" Archi Goda.

"The examiner was Mr. Ridwan. It must be getting away with it."

"Let's go in!"

Archi walked to his room alone because his friends were different. In front of his desk Maia confronted him.

Maia cried, "I'm sorry Archi!" said sorry.

"I was just told by Mr. Nicholas he threatened me to testify. If I don't want to, he will fire me and boycott me from any company so that I can't work at any company" Maia said.

"Yes Maia. I understand your position." Archi said trying to understand him. "Yes already. Don't think about it anymore. I'm okay."

"Yes Archi, thank you."

"Yes Maia."

At Archi's house, when all had left to move, Agust was at home alone cleaning and tidying up the house. When you throw garbage into the trash can in front of the house.

"Son!" call out the voice of someone who is shaking weakly. Agust turned his head and found Mr. Ludwig behind him.

"You?" gumam Agust was surprised.

"May I speak with you for a moment?" ask Mr. Ludwig. Agust weighed in his mind.

"certain. Let's go in the house!" bring Agust.

"Eu...we can talk somewhere else?" ask Mr. Ludwig again.

"Elsewhere?.Well. Wait a minute, I have to get my jacket" said Agust rushing into the house.

Upon his return after picking up his jacket, locking the door and the fence, he headed to the car where Mr. Ludwig was waiting for him. Just then from a distance, in her black car, Irene saw Agust with Mr. Ludwig.

"Grandfather? He already knew of the existence of Agust who resembled Yoongi apparently. But what do you want Grandpa to do with Agust?" ask her heart to be curious.

Agust and Mr. Ludwig enter the car. Agust noticed Mr. Ludwig's fancy car. Look in awe of every interior, luxury and sophistication in the car. He understood how rich the grandfather was just by looking at his car but could not just by looking at Mr. Ludwig's simple clothes. White collared t-shirts, makeshift pants, regular sandals but an unexpected exorbitant price.

Mr. Ludwig took Agust to a restaurant. Five star luxury restaurant. Again Agust must be amazed by the choice of place Mr. Ludwig.

"My grandson and I often eat here." a glimpse of Mr. Ludwig made Agust aware of his admiration. Agust turned his head to look at Mr. Ludwig who was smiling and recalling his memories with Yoon-gi in his mind.

"Yoongi really likes the food served here. It felt authentic, that's what he always said." Mr. Ludwig laughed a little. Agust laughed a little.

They sat across from each other at a table dedicated to two people. The usual place Mr. Ludwig and Yoon-gi sit together. A familiar feeling slipped within Agust. A dejavu but he can't remember how or when he came here and felt this atmosphere.

While waiting for the food they ordered, Mr. Ludwig asked a lot about Agust's life. A story that Dad wrote for him, like a hereditary fairy tale that he finally told to Mr. Ludwig. He was the son of a friend of the father who had just died.

He lives in a neighboring city close to Jakarta. School at the best public school in town. Which is all lies. And Mr. Ludwig believed it. Besides chemist Father Archi also seems to be good at making up stories.

In between their meals, "Are you not working?" ask Mr. Ludwig.

"I was working, but I quit because me and Archi were planning to open a culinary business."

"really? But if there's a chance to work, do you work?" asked Mr. Ludwig to surprise Agust.

"Working?" Agust seems enthusiastic, more precisely excited by the proposal. "Where to work? As what? But...," Agust's enthusiastic face turned grim as he recalled something.

Mr. Ludwig looked question mark with the one in Agust's mind.

What was in Agust's mind? What kind of work did Mr Ludwig offer him? Look forward to her answer in the episode tomorrow 😉
