Jagoan was taken aback when Claudia called him. He never expected her call to be about treating Maria’s headache.

As he recalled the last time he saw Maria, when he dropped subtle psychological hints, he realized he had intensified the transmission of reiki, which seemed to have caused some lasting effects. He had been a bit heavy-handed and now that Claudia called him, it was difficult for him to avoid the situation. “So, you wait for me for a while. I’ll drive over to you,” he told Claudia.

Claudia’s voice was filled with joy as she replied, “Okay, Brother. Call me when you arrive!”

“Alright,” Jagoan agreed before turning to Jagoan. “Honey, I have something to attend to and need to go out. I’ll be back soon.”

Curious, Jagoan asked, “It’s past 8 o’clock. Who’s looking for you at this late hour?”

Jagoan didn’t hide anything and answered frankly, “It’s Claudia. Her classmate is facing a little trouble and wants me to help.”

Perplexed, Jagoan inquired, “What kind of trouble? Is it serious?”

Jagoan smiled and responded, “She’s feeling a little unwell. I have a feeling she’s been bewitched. I’ll go and check if there’s something wrong with the Feng Shui in their bedroom.”

Jagoan nodded and said, “Alright, go ahead, Just make sure you don’t come back too late.”

“Okay,” Jagoan replied with a slight smile. He grabbed the car keys and left the house.

On his way to the university, Jagoan couldn’t help but wonder if Maria still remembered him. Although he had confirmed it once, something in his heart felt off. However, he didn’t dwell on it too much. For Jagoan, the best way to uncover lies was through psychological hints. If Maria truly remembered him,

he had no reliable way to prove it. Regardless, he didn’t let himself get entangled in this matter because he firmly believed that he and Maria were not enemies. Setting aside the fact that he had saved her, the deep rooted animosity between the Warriors Den and himself placed them on the same side. With this understanding, whether Maria lied or not wasn’t that important to Jagoan.
