Interrogation 1

Part 31.

Realizing that I was still in Calvin's arms, I let go of his hand. He laughed showing his neat rows of teeth. It was like a dream to be in a situation like this.

I immediately remembered that Calvin was the boss in the office where I worked. Suddenly, the shame came back. Calvin frowned as if he knew my heart.

"Clara... when outside the office, we are

lovers! That's what you need to remember!"

"Yes," I said slowly.

Suddenly a nurse appeared from behind the door and said.

""Visiting time is over yah!"

"Yes, Suster," I replied.

"Calvin, I'm home, yes! Tomorrow promise to come here again to see you!" I said holding his hand.

Calvin smiled as he nodded his head and kissed my fingers. Hm, the taste drifts in sweet treats like this. The nurse standing beside me couldn't help but smile shyly at the romantic scene in the afternoon.

*****

It's been three days, and Calvin was hospitalized. He has been transferred to the treatment room. After two days in a coma, his consciousness immediately returned, when I came and entered the ICU. Yesterday, Calvin's parents almost gave up seeing their son's condition.

Alhamdulillah, thanks to the power of prayers from those who love him, his consciousness has recovered. Now must rest fully to heal the wounds on his body.

This afternoon after work I went back to visit Calvin. This time he came alone, not accompanied by Miss Catherine. Because he was on business outside the office.

Thankfully, I didn't go to campus today, because the thesis work was finished. It's just a matter of waiting for the court hearing schedule.

I drive the car at a moderate speed. This afternoon was not so jammed because it was approaching the weekend. Only fifteen minutes had the car arrived at the hospital grounds.

As soon as I got out of the car, I saw Doctor Steven talking to the Nurse at the entrance. Hm, if he saw me, he must have asked, I said to myself.

"Hey, Clara! What are you doing here!" asked Doctor Steven. It's useless to dodge, it turns out he has seen me from afar.

"Want to see a friend, Doc!" I said.

"Oh yeah?! How's your mother doing?"

"Alhamdulillah, it's getting better."

"Is your friend sick, Clara?"

"Duh, the doctor asked a lot of questions, deh," I teased.

"Ha-ha, it's unusual, you came alone!" he answered.

"My office mate has been hospitalized here for three days, Doctor," I explained.

"I see," he said.

"I'll excuse myself, okay, Doc!" I leave Doctor Steven who still wants to ask.

I took a step towards the elevator to go up to the third floor of the VVIP room. On the way, I stopped to buy two servings of chicken porridge. Luckily the porridge was still warm when I touched the box. I hope Calvin is happy with my arrival.

Either by coincidence, when I got out of the elevator, I ran into Miss Silfi. Calvin's ex-girlfriend. He frowned when he saw my face. Moreover, still wearing the office uniform.

"Hey new kid, what are you doing here?!"

"I want to see Mr. Calvin," I replied curtly.

"Hm, want to get attention in front of the boss, huh!" he sneered, pointing at my face.

"Hmm, none of your business!" I said.

"Don't dream of getting the girlfriend of a handsome CEO! Your status is just a subordinate, not on our level!" he said proudly.

"We'll see, the CEO chooses you or me!" I don't want to lose.

"Shit...!" the more. Without replying, the woman went straight into the elevator.

*****

After ending the debate, Miss Silfi got into the elevator. And I continue towardsWard.

"Good afternoon," I said quietly, knocking on the VIP room door.

"What else did you come back for?! I kicked you out!" shouted a voice from within.

Looks like Calvin is angry with someone. I peeked through the door, there was no one, I mumbled. As soon as he saw me coming, Calvin immediately said sorry.

"Oh-sorry, Clara! I thought she was back again!" he explained.

"Whose woman?" I asked to be sure.

"Who else, that cheating woman!" he said annoyed.

"You're alone, aren't you? Mrs. Mentari isn't taking care of you?" I asked again.

"Mama is working at the office! So Mbok Asih is on duty here!"

"Oh-I see! Here I brought chicken porridge

still warm to you!"

"Aih, you know that this afternoon I'm hungry!" said Calvin.

I sat in the chair next to the metal bed. then

copy the chicken porridge into the plate. When about to feed Calvin, a knock on the door came from outside.

"Excuse me, sorry to interrupt!" a nurse

came with medicine in his hand.

"After eating, take this medicine, Sir!" she said with a smile.

"Okay, Suster!" I answered.

After the nurse came out, Calvin asked me to put some porridge in his mouth.

"You're being spoiled, here!" my joke.

"He-hee, thanks already have beloved! There is who give enthusiasm and attention," he praised.

I blushed, this face immediately warmed hearing his praise. Soon there was a knocking sound from outside.

"Excuse me, sorry to interrupt! Eh, there's a guest!" said Mbok Asih who was standing behind the door.

"Oh, a lot of people are bothering you! Mbok Asih just sit in the waiting room, okay?" Calvin ordered his nanny.

"Oh-okay, Sir," said Mbok Asih.

"Ha-ha," I laughed at Calvin's nagging.

"Just want to be happy, why is it so difficult, yah!" he said looking at me.

"I'm grateful to have met you..."

Calvin stopped what he was saying.

"Maybe if it wasn't for this, we wouldn't be alone together often!" he said again.

I was touched, and could not answer. I can only hold her hand tightly.

*****

"Good Afternoon, we from the police would like to ask for a moment!"

Suddenly two police officers in full uniforms entered Calvin's room. They wanted to ask for information about when the incident happened. I was surprised to see their arrival.

Sweat started to wet the shirt I was wearing. What if I was asked too? What should I answer this?!

"Based on the CCTV in front of the cafe where the crime occurred, there are three men with thug faces riding a motorbike. Does Mr. Calvin recognize any of them?" asked the skinny cop.

"I don't know them all!"

"Are you alone in the car?" asked the police again.

"Yes, myself, Sir!" he said.
