My Beautiful Lawyer
39
A sunny morning, Vino had breakfast with Bima at the dinner table.
"Tomorrow, Hasna and I will get married in the religious office. Regarding the reception, Hasna and I agreed to carry it out after Hasna's case was resolved" said Vino.
Bima stopped eating, spoon and fork he put cupped on the plate. His eyes glanced to the right and to the left.
"What?" ask Bima.
"I'm..."
"Aren't there any women better than him?" bima asked without looking at Vino.
Vino looked at his father with a strange feeling. But then he thought that his father did not know Hasna well.
"Dad, I know she tried to fight dad for Mr. Dudung's case, but dad, she's the only woman I've loved since High School. He's a very competent person in this field, he even handles some cases very responsibly. Mr. Dudung's case, he's just too focused on the victim. Just because of her fellow women, she felt it was very unfair if all the women were treated like Mr. Dudung did" explained Vino trying to change his father's thinking.
"First love, let alone High School, it's just monkey love. You'll realize after you get to know another girl. I will introduce another girl, do not first make the decision to marry her" said Bima.
He stood up and was about to leave without hearing Vino's reply. But Vino held him back.
"I will marry him even if you disagree. We only met after you ignored me for a few years. You don't have much right to rule which girl I should marry" Vino said.
Bima stepped up regretfully. He walked into his office and kicked his desk.
"Damn it! I can't say that the girl has smeared me twice" Bima said with clenched hands, red eyes and a stingy breath.
He was very upset with Vino's decision. It will keep him away from Bima. He will return to the apartment and Bima's chance to take power over all the property in Vino's name from his mother will fail.
"Dad, I'm leaving!" vino from the outside.
Bima looked at the door, he lazily answered the saying of Vino. But the sound of Vino's car was already heard lit up and the sound of the fence opening. The postman was heard greeting him.
Bima called someone and waited for an answer.
"Why haven't you killed him yet?" ask Bima.
"Sorry sir, Hasna moved into the apartment. Security was tightened by installing some CCTV in front of the door and around his apartment"
"Are you this bad? I paid you very dearly. You can't make a woman as weak as her die? Quickly do it, or I will kill you" said Bima.
He threw all the files on his desk. His frustration was so high, he really felt that he had no chance to prevent the marriage of Vino and Hasna.

Vino arrives at his apartment, he enters by inserting the pin he agreed with Hasna to wear. However, Vino did not know that Hasna had just finished bathing. He saw Hasna wearing only a towel with wet hair.
His eyes were round, staring at Hasna from the tip of the hair to the feet. When he realized it, Vino turned around with a face flushed with embarrassment.
"Sorry! I didn't know you were bathing anymore" Vino said as he walked closer to the door.
Hasna just she looked at him.
"Wait on the couch. I'll change my clothes soon" Hasna said.
His face was flat, as if it already felt meaningless that his body was seen or not by a man. He felt himself to be worthless. Thus making himself flat with a situation that is quite embarrassing for ordinary people.
Vino swallowed his saliva. She did not dare to turn around, but Hasna casually swept her entire body with body lotion. This morning the wind was very strong, the ac in the apartment was lit at 19 degrees. But Vino felt angry after remembering Hasna's body that had been recorded in his brain.
Vino fixed his tie, Hasna who had finished paying attention to him.
"Come, I'm done" said Hasna who was suddenly nearby.
Vino was aghast, he did not dare to look at Hasna out of nervousness.
But Hasna hooked her hand on Vino's arm after the elevator door opened. Vino looked at her face, then turned to her still wet hair.
"You didn't dry your hair?" tanya Vino.
"I never dry my hair, you forget?" answer Hasna.
Vino smiled as he remembered.
"You're nervous about seeing me half-naked?" ask Hasna to the point.
Vino breathed out his breath towards his own hot face.
"Darling, you're too full, I feel hot" Vino said as if giving up.
"Ok, I won't discuss it" Hasna replied flatly.

Fajri gathered all the evidence, he kept it in a box and was about to store it in a locker in the daycare section of the inner office. But when he was about to re-examine all the files he saw, he lost some pretty important files.
Fajri's eyes looked at Beno who was completely indifferent to him. He remembers asking Beno to keep the file, but he remembers Hasna telling him not to trust anyone.
~What is Beno who intentionally omitted evidence all this time? No way, he's been working with me for a long time. I'm sure he didn't do that~ Fajri's heart rejected all the bad thoughts about his comrade-in-arms.
"I'm just too focused on Hasna's words, I have to focus on these evidences" Fajri murmured.
Fajri keeps everything at the office daycare counter inside. Beno stared at his disappearance. Then sat back down after seeing Fajri back.
Fajri stared at the message that went into his phone. His eyebrows shot up, Vino's message about the clock of their wedding schedule left him speechless for quite a while.
Beno saw him, he grabbed Fajri's shoulder from behind.
"What's up, bro?" ask Beno.
"Hasna is married to Vino tomorrow" Fajri replied.
"Waaah, he already does not need your blessing as a foster brother" said Beno deliberately make Fajri feel upset.
"I already know, and I'm leaving tomorrow. So do all the tasks yourself tomorrow, because I'll be gone all day" Fajri said.
"Ouh, so yeah. Well, you leave all the same to me" said Beno with a smile.
Fajri smiled too.

The day that awaited arrived, once in the morning he was ready. Hasna dressed up with a simple kebaya and makeup. She was waiting for Vino to pick her up at the apartment. Her eyes could not be separated from the message Fajri sent her.
[I can't come here let alone be a witness to a wedding that's part of your plan. I also had to do something that was part of my plan. Be careful, that's all I want to say]
~He already knows, he already understands. That's enough Hasna, do it all according to your new plan~ Hasna told herself.
Not long after, Vino came. Nothing changed from his appearance, he was always handsome and dashing with his suit. But his face looked very happy that day.
Vino's eyes felt all over Hasna's body which looked very beautiful. He was very fascinated by Hasna's appearance.
"You are so beautiful" said Vino in praise.
"All women are beautiful" replied Hasna.
"But you're the only one who's made me fall in love for years" Vino said.
Hasna is completely expressionless. Vino is used to Hasna's attitude and response. She falls in love and is even more convinced Hasna will not turn her back on her.
They got into the car and drove towards the religious affairs office. Armand and Bianca who were witnesses of their marriage were waiting, and from Vino's side were two people from his new office.
Getting there, Vino was happy to see everyone ready to wait for them. Penghulu and KUA officers have also been waiting because their turn is about to begin.
Vino said kabul ijab firmly and steadily. Bianca recorded that happy moment. He was also slightly moved by the married Hasna who had no father and no mother. Even her foster father had died not too long ago.
Bianca congratulated him, then hugged him tightly and rubbed his back several times. Hasna's feelings began to be lured to tears, this situation should have been a happy moment for her. But his heart was full of resentment and anger. Happiness is gone and all that remains is revenge.
Vino looked at Hasna affectionately, she was so happy to have become an important part of Hasna's life now, her husband.
"Now you belong to me completely. Be careful!" vino whispered near Hasna's ear as they were about to take a photo.
Hasna did not react, her mind only remembered Fajri's message if she heard the word "be careful".
