'Whatever's gonna happen, it's gonna be exciting.' I thought with a slanted smile.
"Send him to come." Han replied as he folded his hands together on his chest. The woman just nodded and left.
'When Mom's smile was good, Han cut it off, I miss Mama.' My complaint is silent.
Mr. Zerl and the mothers who had come out were followed by 2 girls who were about 5 years old and the other 3 years old.
'These kids are coming out, I hope they don't understand what's going to happen.' I thought looking at those children who were looking at Han in confusion. After looking at the boys, I pulled out Mr. Zerl's fingerprint file.
Han turned his head towards me, I directly gave him the file. Then Han opened it in front of Mr. Zerl who was still calm while the woman beside him was still confused.
'Mental Mr. Zerl is very good, he can still calm down.'
"Why did you arrive at that budget file and get me cornered, Mr Zerl?" Han asked opened the conversation.
"Sorry Mister." said Mr. Zerl who seemed unfinished while kneeling before Han.
"I am forced, I will take responsibility and will not repeat it again." Mr. Zerl continued, I can still see his face. He looked very regretful, whereas Han remained staring ahead with a flat and empty gaze.
'Lord, I hope Han doesn't lose his respect for Mr. Zerl.'
"You come with me to the police station to testify, to his decision." Said Han in a flat tone and held onto Mr. Zerl's shoulder, hinting to stand up. Mr. Zerl's response just nodded, and now the reaction from Mr. Zerl's wife.
"What have you done?" Asked his wife confusedly to Mr. Zerl who seemed to have guessed the question.
"Later I'll explain, don't make the kids and Mom panic." Mr. Zerl replied in a patient tone.
"Dad! Where are you going? You want to leave me and Kayla?" Ask the girl who is about 5 years old. At this time, I was only looking at the people who were there. And those who speak, and their gestures.
"Mother? Why are you crying?" The boy asked after feeling his mother's tears drip down his arm.
'This child is sensitive, it would be unfair if he lost the attention of both his parents.' I thought I was looking at the boy.
"Sasha, I'm only gone for a minute. Tell Grandma not to worry, tell your sister Runo to take care of you when I'm not back." Mr. Zerl said looking at his two daughters.
'Runo. Sashas. And Kayla.'
"I'm ready to take responsibility now." Said Mr. Zerl to Han who had been silent with a flat look.
"Follow me to the car." Han's response while walking but I was still in my place looking at Sasha and Kayla who were hugged by her mother who started to grimace. Seeing her mother grimace and shed tears, Kayla wiped the tears that ran down her mother's face. Kayla didn't cry, I don't think she understood anything.
'Kayla's a sophisticated child.'
"Yeah!! Don't go with him, please." The boy shouted with red eyes and nose and was held by the mother who used her right hand, the other to hug Kayla.
I crouched down to align my body with Sasha's. Sasha just looked at me with a sad look.
My mentality is not strong to see a child like this crying right in front of me.
"Sasha's." Sapaku with gentle effort, but I was still nervous to smile.
Sasha wiped her tears and it made her eyes and nose grow red.
"You must not cry now, remember the words of your father yes. Take care of your sister, don't worry your grandmother, help your mother as much as you can." I said and hugged Sasha, I thought Sasha would be scared. But no, she returned my embrace tightly.
"Yes, brother," he replied while holding back his tears.
"Sister promised you'd get your dad back soon." My whisper in Sasha's ear.
"All right, brother." His answer tightened his embrace again. I feel very, very happy to be accepted like this by the kids.
'Sasha and Kayla are really smart kids.' I thought while taking off his embrace.
"Sister go first yes.remember brother's message, don't forget brother's promise as well." I said as I wiped the tears on Sasha's face and convinced her. Sasha nodded with a smile on her face that was still red on her nose and eyes.
She just nodded with a glare, whereas Kayla waved her hand at me as I turned towards her with a flat expression.
I quickly followed Han and Mr. Zerl who were about to board the car.
After we were in the car, the three of us were silent until we finally arrived at the police station.
30 Minutes later
After getting there, Han went straight to the registration of the complaint followed by Mr. Zerl who was sitting next to him. Give evidence and then give evidence calmly. I just sat in the waiting area and watched Han, Mr. Zerl and the Police take notes. This cop's face looks familiar I guess.
In the midst of taking notes, the policeman picked up and spoke by phone.
.........
About 30 minutes later, Yura, who was escorted by two policemen, sat beside me and was ordered by the police to take her. Yura lowered her lethargic face with her handcuffed hands, seeing that I approached her and touched her arm. One of the policemen turned to look at me, I just nodded towards the policeman. Then the two policemen walked away from me and Yura.
Yura ventured slowly to look at me after the policeman passed.
"Sorry." One word came out of Yura's mouth forcefully, then her tears trickled down. There was a regretful face on Yura's face.
"No need for me. Save it for Han." I hugged my long lost friend. I could feel Yura's tears begin to wet my shoulders.
"I can't return your embrace, neither can I
missed Blyss. Lucky for me, you haven't changed." Yura said softly in my ear, her hands in handcuffs.
"I'm sorry it took so long to remember you. We should go both after this." I said excitedly while taking off my embrace.
"I also need a long time for that, to go both ways. I really want to, but you have to wait for me for about 10 more years." He answered with a smile.
"No. I'm not gonna let that happen, your dad should have been there long enough. His whole life if need be." My words are emotional. "Eh. I'm sorry, I got carried away by that emotion." I said when I realized.
"It's okay. He's my father, but he looks more like a demon than a father. I can't see my mother suffering because of Dad." Yura answered making me quite surprised.
"I know you're not wrong. Soon I will take away that suffering." I said with certainty.
"Huh?"
"I hope you'll tell me what's really going on, if you're told to by your father. Then I'll help you."
"How did you know?"
"I know the character of your father, from a long time ago if he was not the mastermind who else."
"Thank you for your misgivings all along." Yura was moved and shed her tears again. Quickly I rubbed it, I actually did not want Yura to cry, however she remained my first best friend.
"You don't have to cry anymore. Your bullying is about to start, please tell me what
it really happened to you. Fear not, the police protect you and I also fully protect you and Mr. Zerl with all the rights I have over reporting on behalf of both of you. I trust you."
"Sure, I won't waste it." Yura said confidently then stood up and walked towards the examination table.
Then Han came and sat down next to me.
"I need to talk to you." Whisper me when Han just sat down.
"Ck. All right, outside." He seemed reluctant, but he did not refuse either.
'He was always sniffing at me, wanting to kill from behind the STONES.' (Stonks means increased ๐). I thought while holding my hand by folding it in the chest and following Han's footsteps from behind.
