O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm for Allah, witnesses in justice, and do not let the hatred of a people prevent you from being just. Be just; that is nearer to righteousness. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is Acquainted with what you do.

Kamzan's wound was slowly closing and healing now but unlike his wound, his doubt on Yerein case was still not closing.What Yerein did to his wounds was still enigma to him.He felt like he was paralyzed ,he was caught in between, to believe the evidence or to dig more to the case.
He didn't move,there was no progress happened on his interrogation. He couldn't easily step forward because he didn't know which path to take
And the result of his prolong doubt was brought to the higher officials.So here he was now trying to answer the interrogation of his master
"What took you so long,did the current suspect stole your expertise?" The lines on his master's forehead were visible at the moment.He tried to create alibi for his favorite young captain but the captain didn't even care about his situation.
"One month passed and we didn't get any information yet" he continued
"Maybe she has nothing to say" Kamzan answered calmly he was sitting across from his master's table
"That woman damaged your camp"
His master tried to elaborate again what he had forgotten
"Should we kill her then?"He was testing the patience of the old master.He couldn't answer properly for he couldn't think logically at the moment
"Force her to talk,torture her"
The old man suggested another kind of punishment which Kamzan was not fond of
"She is "she" master,what method will I use,electrocute her?hang her?" He wanted him to suggest some methods but his master knew that he didn't use those kind of methods.He didn't torture to the extent that the criminal would almost die.He didn't own their life ,as much as possible he wanted them to die in a natural death not on his hands especially if the evidence of their crimes were still blurry.He couldn't afford to kill an innocent soul
"I don't know,they are suspecting that.. you are protecting her"
"Ya Rabb,you mean me? Protecting the terrorist?"Kamzan reiterated further while looking seriously in his master's eyes
He had nothing to do with the terrorist.He wanted to believe that his confusion was about justice and not about his heart
"Then what is taking you so long?they are pressuring me,you are holding the heavy case here"
"I am only in-charge of the interrogation,the evidence is still on the White moon"
"Then do your role"his master thought that he needed to knock some sense to him.As much as possible he didn't want to admit that his best student was enjoying his interrogation process that's why he wasn't trying his best to find the truth.
"Don't worry,just like what you said this is a heavy case,I need more time also,or else I can give a wrong verdict here" Kamzan stood up and bid his farewell to his master
_____________
Days and nights came to Yerein's life but for Yerein all she could see was doomsday.The day of account was already happening on her life,but the only different was the judge of her "alleged" sin was not the best judge it was also a creation like her.After they returned, everything back to normal too, except the camp,it needed a major repair,in fact she just put in a temporary jail.
"Why did you come back again?"Yerein was flabbergasted when she saw the familiar face again.
"I bring you hijab and food"Fragya answered her as if it was the perfect answer to be given
"Fra-fra you don't have to do this,how did you get in?"there was a fear in Yerein's voice while inquiring her best friend.
"I have a friend here,officer Nico,he is a colleague of my brother"Fragya was happy when she met officer Nico ,in her mind the officer could become her gateway to Yerein's cell.
"Don't come often, both of you will be punished if they discovered that you helped me"Though Yerein was happy to see her best friend she was also anxious.She was scared because her best friend seemed willing to dive deeper together with her to the sea of chaos.
"Ye-re this is the least thing I can do to comfort you since ...Jarannya left you hanging"it was the fate that made Yerein like this but for Fragya no matter what the fate would do to her buddy she would never leave her.She would never do what Jarannya did.
"She betrayed me Fragya"Yerein bowed down her head.She didn't know if she did this due to shame or due to hopelessness.
"Allow me to help you Ye-re"she was begging Yerein,she was willing to offer her hand but Yerein wasn't willing to hold it not because of pride but because she wanted to protect her soulsister.
"Stop doing this,you are putting your life on danger by doing this"while saying these Yerein finally got the paper bag brought by Fragya.
"Don't sound hopeless,you need to fight for your family, for us"Fragya was trying to cheer her up although she could see that Yerein was already being drowned by misery.
"I can only fight through prayer"Yerein weak reply but for her this was the courageous answer she could give.
"Ye-re that's the most powerful weapon"
Captain Kamzan removed the headphone from his head,this was the second visit of Fragya and in every visit he would hear new revelation.
After he left his master's office ,he immediately went to his office and this was the the scene popped up on his lapton screen.
Kamzan looked at his laptop for the last time and closed it.He put CCTV and voice recorder in Yerein cell. Although he monitored all the visitors he was only interested on the conversation of Yerein and the attorney.Another thing that flicked his curiosity was everytime Jarannya's name popped up.He seemed doubtful to the connection of Jarannya to Yerein's case and he would make sure that he would clear his doubt.
-----
Officer Nico was being asked by Fragya to stop the punishment because her best friend's back was almost giving up.Yerein didn't tell her best friend about it but it was him who told Fragya.That's why when Fragya learned the whipping thing she forced her best friend to check and see her back.
"You are being harsh to our suspect" officer Nico said while entering the office of the mighty captain Kamzan..captain Kamzan looked at him with void in his eyes.
"She is not just a suspect,she is a terrorist" he said while returning again to continue what he was doing.He seemed engrossed on writing something
His wounds disappeared now and his senses came back too. Officer Nico thought that their escape would make Kamzan's heart soft on Yerein but nay everything back to zero again
"That...we are not sure about"officer Nico said while sitting on the chair across to the table of captain Kamzan
"Don't be tamed by her innocent look"captain Kamzan answered while still continuing on writing.
"What if she is innocent,captain?"
Captain Kamzan looked at his buddy again,and observed him for a brief moment and with a low tone he said"what if she isn't?"
Officer nico lowered his gaze,and captain Kamzan spoke again"look if you are doubting the evidence because you are in love with her friend,I am warning you,don't mix your heart to this case"he said while raising up the file in his right hand.He knew his connection to her.He heard their conversation and based from their conversation, officer Nico appeared to be the super hero in the story of the two women.
He wanted to call the attention of officer Nico and punished him for letting in the attorney but he was craving for information too and the attorney was giving it to him through conversing with the terrorist's wife.So for now he would let officer Nico did his "love thing" and allowed him to be the knight and shining armour of the two rebel princesses.
"Cap-"...the truth was officer Nico came with 20% of hope that he would be heard by his captain and now he needed to face Fragya to tell her about his failed mission.
Captain Kamzan stood up and arranged some papers"I will leave you here officer Nico,I need to forward this report" captain Kamzan's last statement before he exited his office
-------------
Kamzan brought the report to captain grandpa.It was not about Yerein it was another case of old prisoner.The two decided to meet in their favorite coffee shop
"You seem in deep thought"captain grandpa spoke while drinking his coffee "did "Mrs.Terrorist"gave you some riddle?"
Captain Kamzan diverted his gaze from the outside view to his cup of coffee"she didn't say anything"
"I know you! based from that face,you already hold something"old grandpa said while getting another teaspoon of sugar to add to his cup.
Captain Kamzan looked at the old man"that's enough captain grandpa,that's not good for your health"
The old granpa hung the teaspon on the air and looked at captain Kamzan"this is what I hate about you,you always care about my health,Jarannya never scolded me"
Captain Kamzan's coffee immediately became more bitter after hearing the name of Jarannya,he knew that this girl was hiding something;after what he heard from the conversation of Fragya and Yerein he started to doubt the girl
old grandpa was still talking about Jarannya but these were the only lines absorbed by Kamzan"why it is hard for you notice her?"
"Captain grandpa same topic again?"kamzan said with irritated look,he didn't want to talk about her, not yesterday,not today and probably not tomorrow
"I mean what's lacking on her son?she is a perfect package"old grandpa said while imagining Jarannya in a beautiful way
"old grandpa my eyes and your eyes are not the same"because captain Kamzan's eyes were still clear compared to the old man.
old grandpa laughed"you are insulting me again huh"
"Papa!"Jarannya ran immediately after she spotted her two favorite men"what are you doing here Papa? Captain?"
"I guess that's all for today,just call me if I forgot something on that report and don't forget our meeting adios old captain"Kamzan stood up and smiled to his old grandpa and continued to walk without giving a glance to Jarannya.
"he is leaving already Papa"Jarannya said while taking the previous seat of captain Kamzan"he is a busy captain princess"old grandpa answered and sipped his coffee again
