HE IS ME
..... ......
The black car, driven by Alex, slowly enters the courtyard of a house. There is nothing interesting from the house because everything still looks natural like a house in general.
"Come on." Alex's hand made Jenita look up.
"Whose house?" He asked but again and again Alex only answered him with a smile on his lips.
They entered and opened the door. Jenita was still silent but her hand on Alex felt tighter.
"You scared?" The man smiled gently as he stroked Jenita's hair beside him with his free hand.
"Whose house is this?"
"You know them. Don't be afraid, am I not here?" Jenita nodded but her grasp still felt tight.
Alex breathed a heavy sigh. It's true that the doctor said, Jenita was just pretending to be okay. The trauma has not healed completely. And also, Alex recalled back when Andrian told her about Jenita's reaction when reading a message written by Angia at that time.
"Believe me. Everything's gonna be okay, you can and you can." A warm hug and a gentle kiss were felt by Jenita at the top of her head.
True, he still often felt excessive fear. Especially when he feels that he is alone. That fear and distress will come on its own.

In the back yard of the house. It seems like some people are gathering. They are waiting for Alex to arrive who has informed him of his arrival. As soon as the door to the garden opened, they turned their heads simultaneously.
"Non." Strangled a middle-aged woman who immediately stood up. But his steps came to a halt when he saw Alex's sharp eyes.
"Bibik, Su?" Jenita muttered as she looked up, looking at Alex as if looking for answers.
"Hemm, do you remember?" Jenita nodded.
Jenita clearly remembered it, bik Su was the woman under Anto during her captivity. Starting from the warehouse to occupy the empty house last place himself in the room until it is saved by Alex and his people.
"He's a bibik, Su. But why is he here?" His hand is getting tighter. Even now the sweat grains have begun to be seen on his forehead.
"Let's sit down and I'll tell you everything." Alex squeezed Jenita's body slightly to get to a sofa.
"Sit mom. Others can wait outside, soon Rendi will come with Anto. We'll eat together after." Said Alex calmly but not with Jenita.

The motor stopped not far from the gas station. He does not want to buy gasoline or anything, believe me in these two days he gets a little heavy duty. How not, following a car that every time will rotate and change the direction of the destination but will eventually get to the same house. Lucky he wasn't alone. The arrangements Alex makes may be a little complicated but in the end they understand the reason behind it all.
A large house that is no less large than the property of Sulastri's eyes is not far from the house. But access to the house through many roads. Whether it is intentionally or not, but even if it rotates in a slightly distant direction it will return to the house.
Already for more than a week they followed the car that was seen at Jenita's shelter at that time. And the car will end up in a luxurious house that stands there.

Rendi stepped in together with a young man whom Alex had mentioned earlier. The young man named Anto had a sturdy body with a beautiful face with slightly narrowed eyes and hair that was left long. Dragon tattoos appear to adorn his arms.
Jenita again squealed because she recognized the figure. But he was more able to control himself and act calm but his hand was still tightly grasping Alex's fingers.
"They're my people. Don't worry." Alex whispered softly.
How can they be Alex's men? meanwhile, Anto was the one who fed him every day even he was the one who bribed him before the woman called Bik Sum joined there.
Jenita did not want to comment first. He knew Alex wouldn't do things that would harm him.
"Master." Rendi slightly bowed her body as well as Anto.
"How's it?"
"It's getting clearer, it's just that we still can't go inside to be able to better confirm everything. In the meantime we can only monitor from the outside." Anto answered Alex's question.
They sat in front of Alex and Jenita. Bik Sum came up with a tray filled with orange juice for all of them.
"Non sorry, sorry auntie." The woman had been holding herself back from speaking. She knew the girl before her was still shocked to see her presence in the house.
"Sit down bik." Alex is the voice.
"I asked Rendi to bring them here. I know a lot of questions you want to ask. I'll explain slowly." Alex took a slow breath, glared at the softly still girl beside him before beginning to speak.
"When I hit him, you remember?" Alex pointed at Anto who was sitting right in front of him.
Jenita nods, she regains consciousness at the time and asks Alex to stop hitting Anto. With a weak voice even Jenita asks Alex to let go of Anto and also bik Sum. Those two people were the ones who treated Jenita well during her captivity.
"I asked my people to take him and Bik Sum to the hospital. The same hospital, where Rendi and the others were undergoing treatment. When I decided to take you back to S. I asked Andrian to watch over them. But I first brought Bik Sum here. In short, Anto and Bik Sum are people who are used by others to harm you."
"Sorry miss. I kidnapped the lady back then. But I was forced to because I needed money for my father's care. I have no other way, to get the money so do bad things to miss." Anto lowered his head.
"But still, my father could not be saved even though I had the money. My father died two days after I kidnapped you. My father refused to take medicine and even refused surgery. Dad didn't even accept the food I brought because he thought that I got it all dirty. Father had heard when the man who met me to hand over the money. At that time my father pretended to be asleep so he knew what I was doing. He chose death over using the money." Anto was silent again. The young woman repeatedly took her breath in.
"After my father's departure, I took the lady away from the barn and moved the lady to an empty house. It was my home, the home where my father and I lived before my father became ill. I was determined to make up for all the mistakes I made. But I can't just let go, miss. Because I know, those guys are still after Miss. I was with friends hiding the lady as long as we could while looking for the best way out. But we failed, our existence was known to them. I had to hide the lady in the closet to fool them. But Mr. Alex came before I got you out of there. Sorry miss." Anto held tightness in his chest.
