Trapped Loving Mysterious Girls
CHAPTER 4 - WEAK BUT PURE

The clock sounds louder. The sound of the engine of the vehicle as well as the noisy horn could not beat the silence that enveloped us. With her hand held, Sinta waited for an agreed answer from me. From his eyes was like shouting an aura "don't reject me!". She locked her mouth so tightly that I couldn't guess her reaction.

"Why do you want to date me?"

"Can't it? Do you have a boyfriend?" Say it in a cute tone.

"Hehe. You underestimated me!" I asked while sipping coffee. He must be confused.

"That means not yet, right?" He grins.

Pfftts... Uhh! I'm gushing my coffee again. I haven't had a drink at all, but my coffee is half gone.

"How are you?"

"meaning?"

"Didn't you have a boyfriend?" I asked while looking at his hands.

"Of course I don't have." Sinta answered cheerfully. His right hand held his head while smiling widely.

She wears a female mainstay posture that can raise the level of beauty by 95%. Almost every girl I've ever dated has used this trick. He really insisted.

"alright. We dated but only once. How's it?" I gave him an offer.

Usually I would just refuse and leave the woman I didn't want to date right in her place. But the situation is different...

Despite smiling like that, his eyes were extremely threatening. I could feel a sinister aura even though she herself was not as strong as the woman in the Head Office.

"HEWS? HAS HE? FUN!!" He screams pleasure.

"Then it's our date tomorrow"

"What do you mean tomorrow?" I cut his words. He seemed confused to hear my words.

"Are we not dating now? So there's no date for tomorrow." I hid my mouth behind my interlocked hands. I lowered my gaze but occasionally glanced at his face.

Here's strategy...

I'll get him stuck in his own words so he can't blame me. I didn't accept it because I gave up.

She is a dangerous woman, but I am a man. I'm still the superior one here. I just had to calm down and make him lose his composure.

IT'S A MIND FIGHT!

"HUH? WHATISIT? NOT FAIR!" his protest followed a pouting face. With a face that is young and cute like that, he is suitable to be an artist but why instead choose to be an Editor.

"But you lied to yourself, right?"

"What do you mean by lying?"

"Actually you've got an engagement, right?"

He put on a face pretending not to know. How long can you hold out?

"On your left ring finger is a ring mark. Even though you removed it the former is still visible." My answer. That should have been enough to make him.

"Just because I'm wearing a ring on my left ring finger doesn't mean I'm engaged, right? Many other girls wear rings on their right ring finger even though they are not married." He defended himself.

"Why then be hidden? If it's not an engagement ring, why are you hiding it?" I cornered him again. He should not be able to say anything more.

"I'm not hiding it. I lost it this morning in a hurry I didn't wear it." Answer's calm.

He can still dodge. Let alone panicking, he did not even tremble in the slightest. I'm running out of questions.

"Is this how you treat the girl you date? Introgating him? You must love your job very much." he said. He started attacking me.

"I just can't date just any girl. That's all."

"So for you I'm a random girl but Helen's different?

"HELEN HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS, RIGHT?"

LUSTY! I'M ANGLED. You sly woman! He used Helen in this fight. I subconsciously snapped it with my hand against the Cafe table. Our glasses spilled their contents. Lost already coffee 56,000 - me.

"YAHAHA!!!" Suddenly she was crying out loud to surprise me. The whole cafe was watching us.

"I GAVE YOU WHAT YOU WANTED BUT YOU APPROACHED ANOTHER WOMAN!" he screamed while crying loudly.

"OO! STOPIT! YOU'RE MAKING WHAT'S HERE MISUNDERSTAND!"

The insolent! He dared to embarrass himself just to corner me. This woman is crazy! I lost a landslide.

"ALRIGHT... HYX... EVEN IF YOU HURT ME LIKE THIS... HYX... I'LL HELP YOU MEET THE GIRL... HYX... I'M IKHLAS... NIKS."

SINCERELY PUNDULMU! YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVE REVENGE ON ME. Ahhh!! People started whispering to each other. They showed an aura of disgust to me. I need to quickly finish this hellish meeting and leave.

"I'll pay for all the help you've given me but meet me with Helen. If I lose contact with the counterfeit money dealer, I could get fired. I beg!" My whisper.

With both palms together, I lowered my head begging Sinta to help me. My meeting with Helen was the only way to find the perpetrator. I have no other choice.

"alright.. Come to my room tomorrow. I'll bring Helen to you." she said.

"Can't I see him today? The case is urgent."

"can't. I've got a schedule to meet the author so I don't have time to persuade Helen."

"All right then. I don't think there's anything to talk about anymore. I'll meet you tomorrow at the same hour." I got out of my place, ready to leave Sinta.

I walked towards the cashier as Sinta shouted from her desk.

"SEE YOU TOMORROW! HOPE WE CAN DATE AGAIN LIKE THIS!"

I WON'T! WHETHER YOU'RE DATING OR NOT, I'M NOT GONNA ASK YOU TO MEET AT THE CAFE AGAIN.

*******

The next day, I came to Sinta's office. Because the Lobby officers still remember me, they let me in. They even drove me to Sinta's room even though I didn't ask for it. I hope this is because Sinta's orders are not special treatment.

I entered the room but there was no one in it. The lights were turned off and the contents of his desk were scattered as usual. But compared to Teddy's desk, Sinta is worse. Don't blame me if I mess up your desk, Sinta.

I waited 10 minutes, but Sinta never came. I contacted him too.

"Oh.. I've reached the office parking lot. I was with Helen. Wait a minute." she answered and ended the call. There was nothing I could do but wait for him.

Shortly after, Sinta enters the room but she is the only one.

"Don't you say you brought Helen?" my many.

Suddenly he took out a brown map from inside his bag and gave it to me.

"What's this?" many confused.

I took out a piece of paper from inside the map. I read every word on that white sheet.

"THIS IS-"

"If you sign it, Helen will cooperate fully with you. Didn't you say the case is urgent?" he nodded with a big smile.

From her gestures I've realized, she's planning something. But I don't understand if he's trying to help me or frame me. His hand poked my arm many times. He obviously asked me to sign this right away. Sadistic Woman!

Next to Helen's signature, I signed this file, and photographed it with Sinta's permission. After that, Sinta walked out of the room. Shortly after, Helen came into the room.

His arrival surprised me because this time he was much prettier than our previous meeting. Despite wearing only trousers and a hooded jacket covering his white shirt and hair he was born on his right shoulder.

Relax Stevan, remember he's a suspect! He's suspect! FOCUS UP!

Helen sat in front of me. Without accidentally touching our fingers. He pulled his finger right away but I didn't respond in the least. My gaze was immediately drawn to her familiar-looking lips. I remember something big happening in his house. Ahhhh!! I could feel my body starting to heat up.

FOCUS, STEVAN!!!

"Finally thank you for taking your time"

"Please, get to the point." He cut my words.

AAA!! THE COLD!! Is he still angry about the incident? It's been over 4 days. Although I know you can't forget it, but at least your anger should be less.

"Anu. I understand you're still angry about the incident and you certainly won't be able to forgive me, but right now I'm dealing with an important case and I want you to cooperate fully. I'm not asking you to forget about the incident but I beg you to put the matter aside first and focus on the case. I beg you." I said in an imploring manner.

"I don't understand what you mean. Even if I remember I must have wiped it from my memory."

SAKIITT!! EVEN THOUGH HE DESERVES TO DO SO BUT HEARING DIRECTLY FROM HIM IS PAINFUL.

"Alright, then please tell me what you know."

"As I said, I met a buyer in person. He bought the casing for 200 grand. More details are in the chat. I've printed it out" he said, giving the map a light brown.

"Actually the reason I forced you to cooperate was because only you had ever seen the person. Even if you try to say you're not the culprit but if you can't cooperate fully then the culprit won't meet......"

"...... Plus, because transactions are not through online buying and selling platforms so it is very difficult to track them. So inevitably you have to be fully involved in this case."

I tried to make him accept my reason for approaching him. Although not visible on his face, but it feels he has begun to soften.

"When we met on the side of the road, there was supposed to be a CCTV camera filming it."

"Then, come to the office and talk to my assistant. He'll find out"

"alright. I'll work together because you signed the deal." The answer.

That deal, huh? It seems like she is quite confident but somehow I feel that something is awkward.

"Helen, about the deal we signed. Are you sure?"

"of course. I made that deal."

Helen did it? It's getting unbelievable. It's not that he just got rude to me why even make a different deal like this.

"It's a little personal, but I want to get things straight. Don't you still hate me, do you? Why even make a deal that requires us to be together for a long time?" my many.

"Yes, you could say so, but as long as you don't break what's written in the agreement, it doesn't matter."

Breaking through? There is not me who broke but you. Something's not right. But if he was real, I would have screamed.

"Helen, are you really sure you don't have a problem with me?" I made sure of it again.

"Why are you asking like that? Just being a temporary bodyguard."

Something's broken but I'm not sure what it is. Was it Helen who was just using me or was it because I was disappointed Helen wasn't looking at me like I was looking at her?

But now I know it was Helen who misunderstood here. And I know who did it.

"Actually Helen, I did sign the file but I don't think it's the file you created" I said as I opened my phone.

I showed Helen the file photo. His reaction changed drastically. Pale and fret-wash mixed. His body trembled looking at the file that was clearly written that...

"The two of us didn't sign the bodyguard agreement but the MARRIAGE AGREEMENT. Plus the file stamp is LEGAL." I confirm our current situation.

He put my phone down slowly. Suddenly he ran out of the room, I tried to chase him. But he quickly swerved followed by me.

******

Arriving there, there was no one but the empty lobby hallway that was illuminated by the sunlight that pierced through the large windows.

Although it looked empty, but I sensed the existence of someone with a strong aura of fear. The fear that was wafted from my sensitive nose.

In this world there are some humans who have natural talents in them without them noticing. I realized this ability when I was small and alone. Losing my parents at a young age sharpened my sense of smell to continue living alone among self-centered people.

Surrounded by fake smiles and attention that makes me cramped and fed up. Until I hid them all away. Making sure no one's trying to take anything away from me.

But no matter how comfortable I am in my solitude, my heart still feels a deep loneliness.

Many times I stared at the dark and silent contents of my house. Hoping that when I opened the door, someone stood up to welcome my return. Simple things I don't know when I can get. Until I finally found you at the cafe.

The pure aura....

Behind the hoodie you used to wear hidden the face of a weak and pure woman. Without makeup is also a mask, indicating that you want to remain pure even if the world forces you to change.

Walking through the lobby hallway, I found yourself outside the window hugging herself. You immerse your face in it with a searing fear. Did I scare you that?

"Love, isn't what you're doing too much?" ask me on the phone. I stood away from Helen's place.

"I knew. But he deserves it for trying to enslave a cop like you."

"In spite of that, you don't have to get involved in our problems."

"I'm already involved in it! The day you asked me to bring Helen together, and Helen asked me to prepare her file. I've been involved a long way, you know!" snapped it.

I can't answer his words.

"As far as you know, Helen depends on me. Even though I'm his friend, he's hanging his life on me. Even though she knew I was engaged she still hung her life on me.... That's why, I hate that side so much." Sinta expressed her frustration. Although I don't know how the aura is right now.

"If you hate him you should tell him directly."

"Where might I do it. If I do, it's like knocking down a person who's already limped his leg." he said.

"That's why you're doing this to get back at him?"

"It doesn't matter, does it? You like it yourself, don't you?" I was surprised to hear his words. Right too, after what happened at the Cafe there's no way he doesn't know.

"Listen Sinta, we can indeed get anything in this world with hard work. I know we have something in common, but not for love. Love cannot be obtained by makeup and hard work, but it is obtained by trust and compatibility. Although I like it, but if Helen doesn't then this marriage won't happen...."

".... Marriage is not a mere promise but a decision to always be together to accept each other."
