The Passion of the Guards
Chapter 45 - TGSP

"So, I saw the car parked in the hotel. Why are you going to the hotel?" Roberts asked, making Juan's face instantly pale. Got to answer what? He had not discussed this with Shera, then what answer would he say now?

"Why, pah?" Syera asked, making Juan able to exhale his breath with relief. At least, if there is a Syera he can reason.

"So, papa's meeting at the hotel on the orchid road. Look at this car parked in the basement of the hotel, then papah nanyain the same Juan, why in the hotel." 

"Ohh, ordinary Pah. There was a task from campus, still around the data collection." Syera answered while winking one eye at Juan, giving a code to say Syera's words. 

Yeah, well, there's no way that he said he checked in at one of those hotel rooms, right? Mister Roberts could be angry and again, his work would be threatened as well. If he is fired, his mother and sister will eat what later. 

"What's that, Ju?" Ask Roberts. 

"True sir, I even accompanied Non Syera to enter and do the data collection." Juan answered while nodding his head. He also tried to look as calm as possible for Roberts to believe in him.

"Yes, then. I believe in you, Ju." Roberts smiled slightly making Juan's heart slightly pinched. How could he continue to lie to this kind-hearted middle-aged man? But, he was also not ready to lose this job. 

"Alright, Sir. Then, excuse me first."

"Yes, be careful on his path, Juan." Say Syera with her sweet smile. 

"Good, Miss. Good afternoon." Said Juan, then he immediately resigned from the presence of Roberts and Syera. Adjacent to Roberts, it always makes her heart beat faster. That is, if people have one is always nervous when he acts ordinary. As Juan had experienced.

Roberts just asked, but that simple question could make him fall asleep on his own. Roberts was just asking, not accusing. 

Juan got on his motorcycle and drove him away from Roberts's mansion. Several times he shook his head, suddenly feeling dizzy. But, he still has to focus because he is on the streets, it can be dangerous if he falls or bumps into something. 

But he just nodded and fell. His gaze felt blurry and finally darkened. Juan was unconscious, the road user immediately helped Juan and took him to the hospital. 

"How's this? We have to inform his family, right?" Ask someone who helped Juan.

"There's definitely a cell phone or something." 

The man grabbed Juan's pants pocket and took his cell phone, lucky that his phone wasn't in the lock so the man could open his phone and call someone Juan last called. 

"This is the time? It's like her boyfriend's number." Said the man asking his friend's opinion. 

"Yes, a sprawl phone." 

The man also dialed a number that supposedly said the number of the man's lover who was unconscious in the hospital gurney. 

'Hallo, baby.' A soft voice rang out shortly after her call was raised.

"Sorry Miss, the owner of the phone fell on the street and is currently unconscious. I took her to the hospital, I was confused as to who to contact, so I contacted you, because you were the last person the victim contacted." Obviously the man was long.

'H-ah, what? In which hospital?' her tone of voice was rising, as her girl across there was worried about her lover's condition.

"At Kenanga street hospital, miss. In the IGD."

'Yeah, I'm there now. Thanks.' The girl also turned off her phone. 

After getting word that the lover was unconscious, Syera immediately prepared to go to the hospital. 

"Where else?" Roberts asked as she watched her daughter walk in a hurry.

"Juan fell her word, Pah. Now in the hospital, Syera has to be there."

"Well, what fell? He was fine."

"Syera also did not know, just now someone called from Juan's number said Juan unconscious. Sherah go there first, pah."

"Be careful with the car, don't speed it." Roberts' sweat, Syera nodded her head and immediately ran out of the house.

"He looked very panicked, but Juan was just his bodyguard." Roberts muttered while shaking his head. 

Syera is driving her four-wheeled vehicle at high speed, she doesn't care about anything right now. All he wanted was to get to the hospital and see the state of the lover.

"Wait a minute, baby. I'm coming!" Murmured Syera, she was driving her car insanely. 

Until almost half an hour passed, Syera finally arrived at the hospital indicated by the caller. Syera immediately rushed to find the IGD room, she again dialed Juan's number and was still the same man who raised her call.

"Hallo, Miss."

'I'm in front of the IGD room, can you come out for a minute?'

"Good, Miss." Her reply, shortly afterwards a stocky man with a body filled with tattoos came out. Honestly speaking, seeing her appearance made Syera shudder in horror. Afraid? Surely, who is not afraid when he comes to such a rogue man. 

"Miss Sherah?"

"Yes, I." Answer Syera. 

"Come, come with me." Syera was tailing behind the man, in her heart she was already prejudiced badly at the man in front of her. What if this is just robbery mode? But, where does he have Juan's phone?

Eventually, the two arrived at a room. Syera sees that Juan is still lying on top of the hospital gurney. 

"Darling.." Screeched Sera, she immediately ran closer towards the lover, hugging her even pecking her face shamelessly.

"Which, what the hell are you doing? You were all right."

"Sorry, Miss." 

"Where did you find Juan?" Ask Shera slowly.

"So, we're passing by on a fruit road. But, we saw the victim was already unconscious. So, we took her to the hospital to get treatment."

"Is this some kind of hit-and-run or is my lover a victim of stumbling?"

"I thought this was a single accident, Miss. Considering her motorcycle is still there, Miss's cell phone and other belongings are still intact." Obviously, making Syera inexhaustible. Juan was fine. Then, why did he faint all of a sudden. Fainting on the bike again, what if there is a car passing? Oh, my God, just imagine that he can't. 

Syera looked at Juan's face affectionately, rubbing his forehead with plaster. Like there was a wound on Juan's forehead, probably from a fall.

"Sorry Miss, then we'll excuse you. This is Miss's girlfriend's phone." The man gave Juan's cell phone to Syera.

"Thank you for helping him, if without you I might not have known Juan had passed out on the street." 

"Together, Miss." Answer them simultaneously. The two prepared to leave, but Syera quickly held out a few pieces of red money.

"W-what is this, Miss?"

"Take it, just think of it as a form of my gratitude, because you've helped my girlfriend."

"But, we're doing this sincerely without expecting anything in return, miss." Reject them. 

"Receive, this is not a reward. Just as a form of thanks."

"All right, thank you, miss. May Miss's boyfriend heal quickly and your relationship last until you age together." His words, made Syera smile sweetly and then nodded her head.

After the two men left, Syera sat in a plastic chair near the gurney where Juan lay. Syera also thought, her prejudice was really far off. The two men turned out to have a good heart, even though his appearance was very frightening.

"Wake, baby. I'm here, what's wrong with you?" She muttered as she gently rubbed the back of Juan's hand. Her eyes were staring at Juan with a warm look full of love.
