TRAGEDY AUGUST 13 '98
SECTION 084
“Please. Take back the car keys and the resignation letter. You can think about it later.”
Zaid took a long breath. He had to put an end to all of this, and continue on with the next mission.
“I'm sorry, sir, but, I'll stick with my stance. And also, thank you for all the kindness you've given me. It's a great honor to work with a famous artist like you. I'm sorry.”
Zaid lowered his head, then stepped away leaving the middle space space.
While Can, he was still speechless peeking at the sofa. Looking at the resignation letter, also the car keys that Zaid left behind.
Banging on the sofa, throwing sofa pillows on the floor, to all the furniture on the shelf. Can is really exactly like a little kid who was left behind by his parents.
Shortly after, Anna came to Can's house. He was quite surprised by the middle space that now looked like a ship had broken apart.
All the furniture is messy. Some glass was also scattered on the floor.
“Jeez, Brother. What the hell are you doing? Why are you doing all this?” Anna walked slowly avoiding the glass shards on the floor. Approaching Can who sat on the sofa.
“Zaid's bodyguard has resigned before you arrived earlier.”
“Jeez, but, you don't have to do all this.”
Can grunt annoyedly.
“Omong-by the way, why did he resign?” Anna curious.
“Once, I don't know either. All of a sudden he gave a resignation letter, just because he was sick and wanted to take a total rest.”
“Sick? What pain is he?”
“How do I know, Anna!” snarled Can annoyed. “I've persuaded him over and over again and lured him a raise, but, he still resigned.”
“And yet, I and Zaid's bodyguard have promised not to keep secrets between us. Ah, crap! What am I supposed to do now? Now there's no one to protect me like him.”
“I'm sure it will be difficult to find another bodyguard like Zaid.” Guards
Anna was stunned for a moment. Thinking, did Zaid resign because he did not return his love? God, that woman really thinks so.
“No! He's not acting,” says Anna.
“Lantas what?”
“He is sick, but, not sick that any doctor can cure. It's a different pain.”
“Hah, what do you mean?” Can doesn't understand.
“She's hurt,” chirped Anna. “You take it easy, Brother. Let me take care of all this. I'll get Zaid's bodyguards back to work with you. Only I can take care of this.”
Anna turned around, leaving the middle room.
“Hey, hey! Where are you going?” Can scratch his head without itching. I don't know what Anna's gonna do.

The Zaid headquarters. It was Zaid who was cleaning up some of his clothes. He left behind unnecessary items, and brought only some of his most important items.
It was a look on his face that was overjoyed that he had ended his first mission, and completed his task of becoming a dull bodyguard.
He turned on loud music, sang, danced little, while continuing to tidy up the things he would take away from the place.
*ding dong!!!
Suddenly the sound of his headquarters bell rang. It must be from someone else. There's no way it's the Emir. He would definitely enter the headquarters directly, without pressing the bell button.
How shocked Zaid was to see Anna pushing the button. He stood in a daze in front of the headquarters and was confused. Looking at Zaid's headquarters that looked like a haunted house, and pressing the bell button repeatedly.
The scene was clearly visible from the monitor screen from the existing cctv camera.
“Jeez, what did that woman do?” mummified Zaid. “Sial!”
Zaid immediately put all his belongings back, then approached Anna who was in front of the door of his headquarters.
