SINDOORAH PROPHECY
DEFYING DANGER

The insistence of the situation may have prompted Nina to go too far. That thought alone swirled in Gerald's mind, the view of Halimun Hill since last night. Practically, he could not sleep last night because given his decision this time felt rash. Surfing Ricci's villa might give him a new clue, but it would definitely poison the atmosphere between him and Nina.

Stop. He should stop. Gerald can't let dangerous thoughts like this run rampant over the heart, especially when he needs information from the residents of Ricci's villa after getting a report from the forensic team this morning. Gerald also gulped down a rough saliva that felt thorny in the esophagus.

"Report, Commander. The operation team is ready to carry out the task!' Sergeant Andi then entered the room. So, the policeman was surprised when he saw the boss tapping the file of forensic examination report with his finger. Commander Gerald's gaze seemed to be fixated on something unfathomable before him. Just this time the commander's mind was in a floating state in the clouds.

"Commander?" Sergeant Andi called again full of wonder.

Gerald blinked once hearing it. He lost his mind at the wrong time. However, his mind was still seized by the mistake he made yesterday. "No. I'll do it. Alone," he said quickly to straighten out the command he had put down.

Sergeant Andi's eyebrows were tied to his forehead due to the change of command from him. The commander is known as a firm figure, but apparently Gerald's logic now tends to be controlled by considerations of taste that are out of control.

"Did I not hear wrong, Commander? Yesterday the Commander gave us full direction for today's operation plan."

"Government withdrawn. No team, just me. Is that clear, Sergeant?"

"Ready, Commander!" The police came out to inform the other team members. Meanwhile, Gerald didn't have as much time to reflect as he did just now. He immediately put on a leather jacket and took the motor key. Although wandering around on a big bike made it look more like a traffic division, but Gerald was more comfortable disguising it that way. Not many people will know if in fact he is the head of the criminal risk unit who is carrying out his duties.

The habit that has been attached to Gerald since joining the police force actually has its own reasons.

No one can sue Gerald today. The police commander appeared as the sunlight rose from the top of the trees surrounding Ricci's villa. Olivia and the princess are changing roles from employer to ash upik. The two locked up in the room after the incident this morning at the dinner table. Meanwhile, Nina and Sindoorah were in the front yard to sunbathe and take a walk. Nina is now able to move freely in the villa like the rightful owner and she does not mind sharing the privilege with Sindoorah, The Rabbit Lord has the same fate as her.

The sound of Gerald's motor was heard in the distance. Kuping Sindoorah vertical, although the form is now not a rabbit or a child with a rabbit ear hoodie suit. Nonetheless, Sindoorah did not try to warn Nina because she had reason to worry now. So far, the conspiracy between him and Nina has not been detected.

The sound of the motorcycle manages to steal Nina's attention when Ducati's Gerald mount appears at the entrance corner of the main road to the villa. It was too late for Nina to hide after Gerald pulled the helmet down from the head, then looked at the pure white man with slightly messy hair beside the woman. The casual shirt he wore with two buttons open, clearly showing that this man was not a guest just to stop by or pass by.

The appearance of Gerald immediately created a ripple of tension in the air. The commander frowned as he watched Sindoorah's hand immediately perched behind Nina's back and the man pulled Nina closer to his side. There was a threatening attitude emanated on Sindoorah's face. Maybe due to his presence that interrupts the two people's leisure time or he may be thought of as part of a street motorcycle gang that often makes noise.

"He was a detective master, the police chief in Halimun Hill," Nina said with a fluffy smile that seemed unnatural in Gerald's eyes as the commander got off the bike.

Gerald was troubled to hear the half-inclusive tone of ridicule from Nina's words, especially when the woman did not seem to try to remove Sindoorah's hand from her back.

"Good morning, Mrs Nina and Mr ...."

"Sin!" Nina called Sindoorah out loud. He could feel the Rabbit Man's slow clap on his spine line, as if Sindoorah wanted to scout and peel that part of the flesh off if Nina could even mention Sindoorah's name further.

"Declose, I'm Gerald. Mrs Nina had been kind enough to mention it just now," Gerald told the woman who had always behaved above others. Nina did not let him take over the situation as usual.

Gerald also flashed a question mark look at Nina who looked proud to have transmitted a bad habit to the foreign man - dodging his call like a cheap joke. Gerald refrained from snorting or shaking in front of them. Instead, Gerald observed Sindoorah's face more closely. Her jet-black hair and dark eyes prompted Gerald to say, "You're definitely not Madam Nina's husband. To my knowledge, Mrs Olivia and her daughter have brown hair and blue eyes."

Sindoorah reviews irregular grin. "I'm not an ordinary person, Mr. Detective. Especially when compared to Nina's cheating husband who often makes my partner cry."

"Partners?" Sindoorah's confession immediately activates the alert button within Gerald.

"Partner in heart!" Nina chuckled interrupted. "Mr Sin is my confidant in sharing matters of the heart. He's the best advisor in town. Hehe." Sindoorah smiles at Nina's ambiguous claws. The Rabbit Man could see Gerald's expression glued with a flushed face on fire and he admitted it was funny enough as entertainment to enliven the atmosphere in the morning.

Instead of letting her emotions rise to be played with by Nina long ago, Gerald was again interested in observing the man before her more closely. He could find no strangeness in the man other than his unusual closeness to Nina and unusual aura when their gazes met on purpose. Gerald felt something was wrong. Instead, the man before him continued to carve a smile that seemed to be unable to escape from the face.

"I'm sorry, Mrs Nina. I don't mean to disturb the privacy of both of you." A little regretful, Gerald expressed his feelings. Maybe it was better that he just sent the operation team to search the villa and drag Nina Ricci down instead of being a witness to this woman's spree, he thought annoyed.

"I won't be stale either, Detective Chief. I didn't expect you to return to this place after tomorrow." The smile on Nina's face vanished as she said it.

"Wait a minute, we have to talk about this in a more personal place" Gerald said. "I didn't come here to play. There's something important I want to tell you and Mrs Olivia."

"Really, Sin?"

Nina instead reacted strangely by immediately looking at the man next to her who said partner in heart, until the ripple of rage in Gerald's chest became more unstoppable.

Sindoorah just grunts. "Turn your own troubles this time, Nina. I don't want to get involved." Sindoorah removed her hand from Nina's back and turned away.

"Sin, where are you going?" call Nina, hoping the Rabbit Man stays by her side.

"You're just a partner in the heart who's not fun. I'd better find a more realistic in bed partner than a heartless doll like you."

Suddenly Gerald was attacked awkwardly and confused when Nina turned to look at him sharply. "You've already kicked my partner out." Gerald feels more like a criminal than law enforcement whenever he comes face-to-face with Nina and her eccentric attitude. However, a sigh of relief pumping his originally flat spirit back to reach a positive threshold.

"So, Mr Sin isn't your affair?"

Nina approached until Gerald could feel the woman's breath gripping the suddenly sensitive part of her face. His heart thump was out of control.

"That question doesn't deserve to be uttered by you, the one who stole my kiss after the party the other day!"

Gerald bit his lips instantly like an unforgivable sinful criminal.
