Rika has made an appointment for Altesa. The two will meet a young lawyer named Gavin. They arrived at the lawyer's office.
Talks about the Altesa case were made. But Gavin clearly had a problem with the evidence.
"You really don't have any proof?" Gavin looked questioningly at Altesa.
"There's one. But just a picture of two strangers I don't know." Altesa immediately showed the photos stored in the mobile phone gallery.
Gavin took Altesa's phone. Take a good look at two photos of foreign men.
"It's useless to have these photos if you don't know who they are. We have to figure it out. It's possible that he's the key to everything that's happened" Gavin said.
"I don't know if it's a coincidence or not. But the date written on the back of the photo is the same date as the accident that happened to me" Altesa said.
"really? Well then, these two men might know something bigger. We need to find out who they are!" Gavin Response.
"But how do we find out? There's no way we're forcing the police to track them down, is there?" Rika expressed her concern.
"We can start from Wildan's work environment. I'm sure they know something. But there's no way I'm intervening to look for him. You too, Rik. Wildan will definitely be suspicious." Altesa tried to think of someone who could help.
"Gavin?" Rika moved her eyeballs towards Gavin.
"I might be able to. But it's gonna be hard. Because Wildan's employees couldn't possibly give information to a stranger like me" Gavin said. As a lawyer, he is more experienced.
Altesa sighed. Then lean on to the sofa. Trying to find the name of the right person to help him. Until the name Revan came to mind Altesa. Given that the man also worked at the Wildan entertainment company. Revan was even quite close to Wildan.
"I know who can help us!" cetus Altesha. He immediately tells Rika and Gavin the name of Revan. Now they just have to persuade Revan to be willing to help.
"I'll talk to Revan today. It just so happens that at two in the afternoon there will be a filming schedule" said Altesa. He and Rika leave Gavin's office.
"Regarding the contract with Gavin. I'll pay as soon as I can." Altesa felt bad for Rika. His friend had indeed paid the cost of cooperation with Gavin.
"Gosh, Al. Do you consider me a stranger. Just relax. When you were in high school you used to treat me very often. Let's just say this is the reply," said Rika while focusing on driving a car. He escorted Altesa to the set.
Altesa's phone suddenly rang. He got a phone call from Beno.
"Al! You're trying to get away from Wildan, aren't you?" ask Beno from across the phone.
"Yes. Why?" Altesa replied while frowning.
"He asked about you to me. Maybe you shouldn't have to work for a while."
"Thank God you told me. I had to buy some time before Wildan could figure out my real plan. We're trying to find evidence." Talks Altesa and Beno ended there. Altesa decided to return home. He'll talk to Revan later.
On the other hand, Wildan and Erma's relationship is increasingly stretched. Wildan did not want to work because he kept thinking about Altesa. He is a very determined man. If you have a strong will, Wildan will do anything to get his wish. Including making Altesa return to him.
After asking Beno, Wildan tried to contact Rika. He went straight to the woman's office.
"Wildan, what are you doing?" ask Rika who pretended to be shocked. He could certainly guess the intention of Wildan's arrival. Sooner or later, Rika will definitely be the target of Wildan to be asked about Altesa's whereabouts.
"What do you care?! Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell. Take care of your second wife!" rika Ketus balas. He already hates Widan.
"Please, Rika. I want to improve my relationship with Altesa. I promise I won't betray her again" Wildan said expectantly. But Rika replied with a whimper.
"Curtain! Your talk is so sweet. But if you want me to be honest, I don't know where Altesa lives. So you better go now!" rika said as she turned around. Just leave Wildan.
"Damn it! Just act like him. Altesa alone did not come to that," Wildan commented cynically. He had to leave without any results.
Wildan rubbed his face rough. He feels frustrated. Everyone closest to Altesa had met him. But no one knows where the wife is.
"Maybe it's time for me to ask Romi for help" Wildan murmured. He took the phone out of his pants pocket. Immediately contact his close friend who works as a policeman.
...***...
Altesa stared at the phone screen. He hesitated to call Revan. That guy helped a lot. Doubt is increased when considering Revan has a nature that tends to be blunt and cold.
'I have to how? But I have no one else but Revan. He's the only one who can figure out who the two men in the photo are, ' Inner Altesa. He finally contacted Revan.
"Why?" Revan replied in a flat tone.
"Are you busy after filming? I want to talk" Altesa said.
"Speak it here. Why is it so hard to meet."
"Hard to talk on the phone. Because it's about your willingness to help."
"What's? Just say!" Revan urges.
Altesa breathed a heavy breath. He then tells Revan his wish.
"Will you help-" Altesa's words paused, upon hearing a phone call turned off by Revan. Obviously the man refused to help.
"Already expected," muttered Altesa. He threw his body into the bed.
At the same time, Azka was in the room. He had met Erma several times. But the woman continued to nag him for no apparent reason.
As a result of Erma's attitude, Azka tries to talk to Wildan. But again he received a casual response. Wildan was too busy with work and his search for Altesa.
Azka is home alone. Erma and Wildan just happened to be going somewhere. Azka felt lonely now. He suddenly thought of Altesa's words the last time. Especially the lies that my father told me.
"Actually who is my mother? Who here is lying?" Azka muttered to herself. His mind kept wondering. Until finally he took out a piece of paper containing Altesa's number.
Azka thought, the only person who cares about her now is Altesa. He finally contacted the woman.
In a different place, Altesa was still lying on the bed. He received a phone call from an unknown number. At first, Altesa ignored. But as the number kept calling, he chose to answer. Even so, Altesa did not make a sound at all.
"Auntie Al?" azka's voice can be heard clearly from across the phone. Altesa's heart was pounding with excitement because he felt so happy.
"Azka!" call Altesa enthusiastic.
