Chương 20: TRAGEDY

"Ah, yes—It's okay. I'm also sorry for getting too emotional and getting carried away," Biserka replied, stuttering because she was still embarrassed by Pavlo and confused by the current very awkward atmosphere.

As the highly awkward atmosphere continued, the doorbell of Biserka's apartment rang. What a lifesaver for Biserka and Pavlo.

Biserka wanted to open the door, but Pavlo walked ahead of her and opened the door, "Let me open the door."

Biserka could only say yes and bit her lower lip, thinking about what stupidity she had just done in front of a stranger she had only known for a week. "Kayf ghabayun ymkn 'an takun, Biserka! (How stupid of you, Biserka)!" Biserka cursed quietly to herself using the official language of her homeland, Arabic.

"Stupide idiot stupide! Oh mon dieu, je suis tellement gêné en ce moment! (Stupid idiot! Oh my God, I'm so embarrassed right now)!" She continued to curse himself in a different language, French.

"What's wrong with your stiff expression like that, Pav?" said the person who pressed the bell earlier, who turned out to be Benvolio.

"Ah, nothing, Ben," Pavlo replied evasively.

"Pavlo!!! Finalmente posso rivederti! È passato un po 'di tempo dall'ultima volta che ti ho visto in Italia! (Pavlo!!! I finally get to see you again! It's been a long time since I last saw you in Italy)! " said a girl who had been next to Benvolio and immediately hugged Pavlo tightly.

Pavlo was very embarrassed when Callista hugged him. Callista still thought the two could hug like that all the time, like when they were kids.

"Callista, per favore, lascia le braccia. Il tuo abbraccio è troppo stretto, non riesco a respirare. (Callista, please let go of your hand. Your hug is too tight, I can't breathe)." Pavlo immediately pushed Callista's arm away.

Biserka, who heard the commotion in front of her door, immediately approached the direction of the racket.

She was surprised to see there was a girl carried by Benvolio and was hugging Pavlo very tightly. She had no idea who the young girl was and what her needs were in this apartment.

Biserka looked around and found the girl carrying a relatively large suitcase. She was still wondering what she was going to do and what her business was here.

Why did Benvolio bring the girl here, and why did she hug Pavlo so tightly as if she had known him for a long time.

So many questions crossed Biserka's mind. She wanted to ask her questions immediately and get the answers as soon as possible.

"Yes, hello, Ahmed? What's wrong?" Mataya said on a phone call connected in her car.

"Where are you now, Taya? I wanted to tell you and discuss a few things regarding the investigation into the Constanzo family and the project they are offering to your airline company," Ahmed answered in the phone call linking the two.

"I'm on my way to see my psychiatrist now. I'll call you back after I finish consulting with my psychiatrist later," Mataya replied, explaining her current location.

"Okay, I'll wait to hear from you. Take care, see you later, Taya," said Ahmed.

"See you later." Mataya immediately disconnected the call connected to her car and continued on her way.

Mataya then gets a call again. However, this time it was Vla who contacted him. Mataya immediately received her phone call back. "Yeah, what's wrong, Vla?"

"Biserka ... Mataya," said Vla briefly and did not finish the meaning of her words in the call.

"Get in the habit of finishing your sentence, Vla. How many times do I have to remind you about this? What's wrong with Biserka?" Mataya snorted in annoyance because of Vla's habit of half-talking and not getting to the point.

"Ah, sorry, Taya. Biserka finally managed to wake up from her coma. You must hurry here to see how she is, and it looks like you should postpone meeting with your psychiatrist first, Taya." Vla brings good news to Mataya by reporting that Biserka has managed to wake up from her one-week coma.

"Oh my God! Thank you! I'm going to the main base right now! Please take care of him for me, Vla."

It didn't take long for she thought about it. Mataya immediately turned her car around at a crossroads and sent a voice message to Ahmed to come to her main base directly, "Ahmed comes to my main base now, Biserka is awake."

After she finished sending her voicemail, Mataya drove her car very quickly towards the main base.

On the way to the main base, Mataya saw two mysterious people through the car window. The two weird people rode a motorbike right behind her car and looked like they were following him.

Mataya, who realized and knew that the two mysterious people had followed him, immediately stepped on the gas and drove her car at a faster speed than before.
