Vio came out of the CCTV room. She was looking for the whereabouts of the person who had harassed him. She was furious because she couldn't find that person either. Vio ran outside the Minimarket. She looked left and right, but nothing.
"Where's that bastard?" Vio squeezed her hand. She felt immense anger. She couldn't just let that person go. Because if left unchecked, there will be other victims. She had to teach such a pervert a lesson.Most women in the world are deliberately silent when harassed. They may feel embarrassed if others know about the incident. However, Vio is different, and she will still make that person learn a lesson.Vio narrowed her eyes. She saw someone who she had ultimately remembered from in the CCTV room."I got you!" Vio smiled crookedly. She immediately ran towards the clumsy-looking man holding a hat.The man kept looking behind him as if afraid of being chased by something. The girl wearing jeans and a leather jacket tried to catch up with him. She didn't want to get away with this problem."That's fine. I want to leave. What kind of woman does he think I am? Already accusing someone else. Ouch! I hope I won't see you again. If I did, I'd prefer to hide under the table rather than face him."Tonight the streets look very quiet. There were not many cars milling about. Maybe because it's just a tiny road, not a highway, plus it was already ten o'clock at night, the curfew had already taken effect. Not much is outside the house."Stop!" Vio shouted. The man immediately glanced over. He was surprised that Vio was after him. The man kept running. He crashed into everything in his path. Vio tried to run as hard as he could and....BUGS! Vio threw a kick at the man's back until the man fell to the ground. How can a woman's strength be that strong? The man directly touched his nose, which was bleeding. Vio, who felt angry, looked at the man with hatred. Right now, she wanted to swear, spit out all the dirty vocabulary she knew."Why are you suddenly attacking me?" The man got up instead of looking at Vio with an angry look. He would be very embarrassed if anyone saw this incident."You have harassed me at the Minimarket. Still asking why?!" accused Vio. The girl was fearless, as if she had no fear. The man looked embarrassed. His expression immediately changed."Who said? You have no proof!" said the man. He felt confident because he didn't know if Vio had seen everything through CCTV.Vio pulled the corner of his lips up. "Who says I don't have evidence? I can provide as much evidence as possible," said Vio confidently."You talk too much!" The man started attacking Vio. He threw a punch at the girl, but Vio swiftly caught the man's fist with one hand. Vio gripped the man's hand with all her might until the man felt pain.The man's eyes widened in shock; maybe he didn't think a girl like Vio could make him sick. It turned out that the kick was not a coincidence, but it was because the girl did master martial arts.The man who knew one hand could not immediately let go. He threw a punch with the other hand. However, his fate was not much different. Vio can catch them all."You think I can't fight just because I'm a woman? I'll take you to prison right now. So that there are no other victims!" Vio threatened. She has a trauma of abuse like this, making her a different person."Ow...!" Vio felt a kick on his leg until he looked down slightly in pain. She did not think that the man would aim at her calf. Finally, the grip on her hand loosened."Do not expect!" replied the man. The man didn't want to be battered and chose just to run.'Instead of me going to jail, it's better just to run away,' said the man on his run. "Do not run!" Vio shouted."Ouch!" The furious Vio finally threw the shoes he was wearing. The man screamed when something hit the back of his head. "Eat my stinky shoes!" Vio ran again and jumped at the man.She made his body fall on the man. Now the man's position on his stomach with Vio sitting on it. Vio tried to tie the man's hands behind his back so he wouldn't move anymore. She always hangs a rope in her trouser pocket."Hey! What are you doing?!" They were both startled by a scream from behind.'He is again. Why should we meet again?' Vio thought. She felt lazy to meet again with the man she accused earlier, perhaps more precisely embarrassed—shame for being wrong.Brian looked at Vio, tying the man's hands behind his back, then turned to look at the man. Why did he even want to laugh?"Why are you here?"The air felt heavy, as if the remaining oxygen was dwindling. The wall clock ticked slowly, each second sounding like an eternity. Five people sat there in silence, each trapped in their own thoughts.On the long sofa, Anthony Wijaya sat with his wife, Wening. They stared intently at Brian, who looked dishevelled in front of them. He hadn't stopped fidgeting since his wife had gone into hysteria because of him. Next to Brian was Kyra, still visibly shocked, witnessing the reality of her mother's condition.In the corner of the room, Adrian stood, leaning against the wall. He folded his arms in front of his chest, his eyes constantly watching the four people in front of him. The atmosphere in the room was more chilling than a cemetery. Even for Adrian, this was more horrifying than encountering a ghost.Although he was Azzura's best friend and doctor, he was confused by the situation. Both sides were unable to reconcile. Although Mr. Wijaya seemed more lenient than usual, he still felt
The father and daughter stared at each other for a long time. There was a sense of longing conveyed in Brian's gaze towards Kyra. He wanted to run and hug her, but he was also afraid that Kyra would reject him."Daddy…!" Finally, Brian felt relieved when Kyra approached him first. She ran and then hugged him. Brian happily returned Kyra's hug. He held Kyra tightly, as if he didn't want to let go anymore."Kyra, I miss you." One word that could explain all he had felt all this time. They had met a few times, but the closeness of a father and daughter had been lost for a long time."I'm sorry, Daddy. Forgive me for always blaming you. Forgive me for not understanding you." A sincere apology came from Kyra's small lips. She also longed for this, hugging her father with feelings of love and affection."No, dear. I am the one who needs to apologise to you for being selfish and never understanding you."Wening and Anthony Wijaya just watched silently. Although they were upset with Brian's s
Kyra remained silent after meeting Vio. She was still pondering over what had been said. For a long time, she had turned a blind eye and deaf ear to what happened to her parents. She simply wanted to blame Vio for everything that had happened.Kyra still held the agreement in her hands. Several times, she only glanced at it and was afraid to open it again. She still couldn't believe that her mother had planned all this. She still denied that her mother had schizophrenia.Kyra shook her head. "This can't be true, right?" Kyra asked more of herself. She took a deep breath and then lifted her head, which had been bowed down.Kyra remembered her grandfather, who had been in Switzerland for the past few days. Vio had mentioned earlier that her father was in Switzerland to pick up her mother. Could her grandfather have been with her mother all this time?"Sir! Can you go faster?" Kyra commanded the driver, who responded with a nod. The car sped up faster than before. Kyra sat anxiously in t
After hearing everything from Handoko, Vio decided to visit her mother's grave. Handoko had never told her about her mother, always keeping the truth hidden. Vio had grown accustomed to not asking. The most important thing for her was that she had a great father.Vio sat in front of the tombstone for a while, saying nothing. She didn't know how to address her mother because she had never done so in her life.With her mouth still closed, Vio began to move her hand to pull out the weeds growing on the mound of earth. Occasionally, her eyes would glance at the name on the tombstone."I wish I knew you before, Mom. I’m sorry it took so long for me to come here." Vio took a deep breath, trying to hold back the tears that threatened to fall. Although she didn't know anything about her mother, Vio could feel the sadness her mother had experienced. Thankfully, Handoko had finally made her stay, even if it wasn't for long.No more words came out of Vio's mouth. She just wanted to enjoy this mo
Wijaya didn't forbid Brian from coming after that incident. He was pleased to see Azzura becoming more cheerful. Although he would occasionally flare up in anger, Azzura's smiles were more frequent.Every day, Brian came with Adrian and always accompanied Azzura, whether reading novels or knitting. He was so attentive and meticulous in caring for Azzura that he seemed to forget about Vio's existence. He hadn't even contacted Vio since that day.Vio kept glancing at her phone. It had been days since her husband left without any news. Naturally, she was worried that something bad had happened to Brian. Brian had only called once when he left the airport on his way to the hotel."What's wrong, dear? Why do you look so anxious? Hasn't Brian contacted you?" Handoko emerged from his room. His right hand pressed a button, causing his wheelchair to move automatically.Vio winced. She hadn't even told her father about this, so how could he know?Vio shook her head. "No, Dad. Mas Brian usually
Wijaya strode quickly towards Azzura's bed. He then grabbed the back of Brian's shirt and shoved him hard, sending him crashing into the wall. Still not satisfied, Wijaya moved closer to Brian and pulled off the wig he was wearing. Wijaya's face turned crimson when he realized that Brian had been with his daughter all along.From the moment he saw the man carrying Azzura, Wijaya had suspected it was Brian. After all, there was no way Adrian would allow another man to touch Azzura. And this time, his suspicion was confirmed. Wijaya was furious to learn that Adrian had deceived him."What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you not to look for Azzura anymore?" Wijaya snapped at Brian. His blood was boiling because he couldn't stand the thought of Brian touching Azzura again. Even though Wijaya knew that Brian's second marriage was Azzura's wish, he hadn't accepted it yet. He didn't care who Brian was with now, but he didn't want Brian with Azzura anymore.Brian, who had been silent until
