After recovering, Hasna underwent a trial that was ready to wait for her. The trial will see him dismissed from the profession as a lawyer and serving a prison sentence.


Fajri came to give him some encouragement. He was standing near the door where he was waiting for the trial to begin.


A prison officer approached him.


"Sorry sir, you can't see him" the officer said.


Fajri reveals the identity of his officer and the man ducked and invited him to enter. Fajri approached and sat down by Hasna's side.


"You used your identity to get in here" Hasna said.


"Yes, that everyone used to do when they got the chance" he replied casually.


Fajri's hands were coiled and hugged Hasna's shoulders. Hasna's hands shifted her hands to stay by their side. But Fajri did it again.


"You'll be free soon" whispered Fajri in Hasna's ear.


Hasna's eyes were rounded, she turned her eyes on Fajri's face that was so close to his.


"You drunk? " ask while sniffing his face.


Fajri took off his embrace and looked at Hasna with a face that implied annoyance.


"I was drunk only once, and that's when I was really upset with you thinking about Vino. Don't talk about it anymore"


Hasna turned her gaze towards the officer who gave the code that the trial would be conducted.


"Go! " said Hasna.


Fajri. Again, after being repeatedly expelled and asked not to stay longer with him. Fajri's heart felt very sick every time he heard that word from her.


"Can't you just say "Don't go Fajri, I beg you, I really want you to be here with me" instead of always asking me to go away from you" Fajri lamented.


Hasna stood up and faced him. Fajri retreated a little because Hasna was standing so close.


"So get out, I'm going through! " said Hasna.


Fajri let out a loud sigh, he was getting annoyed with Hasna's attitude.


"Sorry sir, the trial will start soon" said the officer behind him.


Fajri closed his eyes, getting increasingly upset with the two of them.


"Yes, take him away" said Fajri.


He didn't turn around when he let Hasna go to the courtroom.

Trial begins. Everyone stood up when the judge came.


Prosecutors read out a speech to Hasna. Everyone listened, including a man sitting among the audience.


His eyes looked at Hasna's lowered face and occasionally looked at the prosecutor's face speaking in front of her.


At one time, their eyes clashed and stared at each other. Hasna did not blink, her mind wanted her to keep staring at the man who was also looking at her.


"Miss Hasna, please sit in the front seat" the court official said.


Hasna's attention was distracted, she complied and sat down.


The trial went well, Hasna said everything she did. All eyes were staring at him cynically.


"Please consider the honorable Judge, Miss Hasna did everything right. But because of that, the police can also arrest drug kingpins. The name of the chairman who gets praise while Miss Hasna herself who has been directly helpful, even in the law"


Armand gave his defense. The other Judges and lawyers whispered to each other about what Armand said. He approached and gave a file containing all the evidence of his words.


"Please defend, present the scheduled witness" said the judge.


Hasna's eyes were round, she didn't know Armand's plan that day. He even refused to be defended by Armand. But Fajri persuaded him to accept his defense.


Sir Wira came and swore in the name of his religious book.


"I swear, everything I say is the truth" said Mr. Wira.


Mr. Wira smiled as he looked at Hasna. He had come to the hospital before, but Hasna was unwilling to see anyone. He didn't come to see her to tell her all the plans.


~What is he doing here? She wants anything else from me? ~ heart words Hasna.


The testimony of Mr. Wira made the Judge and everyone dumbfounded. The police chief asked that all the incidents be investigated thoroughly.


"The "advance hearing will be held next month on the 12th. Thanks"


The judge knocked his hammer once. The trial that day is over. Hasna was taken to a special waiting room. Fajri came and hugged her.


"I told you, you'll be free" he whispered again.


Hasna took off her embrace.


"Why is he here? " ask Hasna upset.


"What do you mean you ask? Of course he wants to defend you and get you out of this case. I expected you to do it nicely. There is always a good purpose. That's my Hasna" said Fajri happily.


Hasna was about to get angry, but her eyes were immediately fixed on Mr. Wira who was standing on the doorstep.


Fajri followed Hasna's eyes.


"Sir, please come in sir! " fajri said.


"Witnesses cannot meet the defendant while the trial process is still ongoing" Hasna said.


Pak Wira's steps stopped, Fajri looked at Hasna in surprise. He didn't understand why Hasna was so strict with Mr. Wira.


"Hasna, this is him... "


Fajri was about to get angry, but Pak Wira's hand restrained his shoulder and asked him to hold back.


"Hasna's right, I can't just walk into this room. Especially if the defendant does not want it" said Mr. Wira with eyes staring at Hasna.


Armand came, in inviting Pak Wira and Fajri to come out and talk about the next step. Hasna stared at their departure. He was in jail again after a while of waiting.

"Thank you, Mr. Wira, thanks to you, we easily removed Hasna from this case" Armand said.


Mr. Wira smiled, Fajri looked at him. He thought of the reason Hasna had snorted at him.


~She's a private voter, if she's snoozed, it means the person she faces is the one who has a problem with her~ Fajri's heart said.


Mr. Wira shook Armand's hand, they separated after Mr. Wira left first.


Fajri kept looking at him, Armand was astonished by his attitude.


"Why look at him that way?" ask Armand.


"Hasna doesn't like to be defended" Fajri said.


"Heuh, what does he like, doing everything himself? He also does not want me to defend. Hasna and her husband are the same" Armand said.


Fajri looked at Armand who mentioned Hasna's husband.


"Yes, Vino didn't use a lawyer to defend him either. He accepted all the demands put on him" Armand explained because Fajri's eyes seemed to ask for it.


"I'm not upset, but, if they do something, I suspect there's something they're planning behind us" Fajri said.


"That's right, maybe because they are reliable lawyers, we are affected by all their events and behavior" Armand agreed with Fajri's argument.


"Did he really say nothing to you? " ask Fajri.


"No, he just asked me to fully investigate the Bima Sebastian case" Armand replied.


"Maybe it was also because Bima shot Vino, everything she planned to fall apart? " Fajri asked Armand.


"I don't know for sure, I just hope he's not severely punished for this case. I heard some prisoners behaved badly to him" Armand leaked the story Hasn asked to keep secret.


"WHAT? " Fajri was surprised and unexpected.
