CHAPTER 54
FLASHBACKS
“Huh huh huh”, the breath sounds of a teenage boy hiding behind a big tree. His leg was injured when he fell while running.
Aleandro Leonard Torres, watching for himself how one of the bodyguards accompanying him was killed, had a bullet lodged in the bodyguard's left chest. The teenage Leon ran as hard as he could to enter the bush and forest, until his body rolled over, his feet hit by rocks.
“I have to where?”, shirking Leon, the sapphire blue netra is watching around, not knowing any direction. It's a strange place, from the sky that he saw can be ascertained if the day will soon turn dark.
Leon heard some people screaming calling his name “Hey boy, come out you, come with us. We'll find you naughty boy”.
Little Leon's body trembled, a sweat the size of corn seeds filled his face, the pain in Leon's legs was unbearable, he had drowned not eating anything since this afternoon. Leon hopes his parents will come soon, he is really scared at this time.
Leon gasped at the sound of a broken twig nearby, his breathing was held back and his heart was pounding more and more. Wanting to run but Leon's legs hurt so much, not to mention where to get out of the forest. He is blind to everything, used to living under guard and comfortable making Leon can not be anything.
Leon turned his head to the left side, astonished to see a much younger child holding many twigs. “Hey you go”, drive Leon how can a child be in the forest, he thought. Don't-don't the boy also lost like himself, but judging from the clothes is impossible.
“What are you doing here?”, the plain voice and typical chirps of girls are quite loud.
“Ssssst, don't be noisy little boy, I'm hiding”
“Oh play hide and seek, I can come?”, his smile is sweet with a row of neat teeth, clean white.
Instead of answering, Leon left the girl and took an ear. He was reluctant to get caught and die at the hands of the kidnappers, holding his numb legs, only to be able to limp in and fall down many times.
“Hey you're off”, hardik Leon who was surprised his arm was over the little boy's shoulder.
“I will help big brother, said our grandmother should help each other”, her smile is plain.
“BOCAH RANCID EXIT NOW ALSO”, the voice is more clearly heard and can be ascertained they are also getting closer to the existence of Leon.
“Bad people”, exclaim Pamela. “Come brother, through here”, take him through the bush in front.
Increasingly do not understand why this small child can be in the forest and yes now both are in slums, this makes Leon allergic also nauseous.
“Come ka fast, the villain will not get here”, his smile, because the big fence they just passed only contains the body of a small child or thin person like Leon.
“Where is the nearest police station?”, asked Leon staring at the flashing clear bead in front of him.
“Mauh”
“What?”
“But I have ide”, he said laughing.
Leon followed his small footsteps, and got closer to the highway.
“Uncle, may I come to the city, I want to meet granny”, beg and love, yes even at his young age he used to live alone and independent, from morning to night, she waited for her grandmother to come home.
“Of course you can, uncle will take you there, who is he?”, looking at Leon's messy appearance, he said, looks foreign face but from the hairstyle and style of clothes can be concluded that the boy was not a random person.
“Antar that brother to the police station ya uncle”
“Alright let's go up”
He who was curious asked how could the little girl be in the forest alone and very paved the way home, really absurd.
“I'm used to, the forest where mainku” is, her smile is so sweet and innocent. “Ah this, said our grandmother must dress the wound so as not to be exposed to germs”, he said removing a long ribbon that remembers his hair, then with a potluck to treat the wound on Leonard's leg.
“Aaarghhh, oh this doesn't hurt”, lie Leon don't want to be considered weak. “Ah this, I only have this as payment, accept lah”.
“Waaaah, thank you handsome brother, I like to read fable”, received the book with a happy twinkle, even if the blood stain is not a problem.
FLASHBACK OFF
Leon opens a book that has significance in his life, even traces of blood stains are still visible even though they have been cleaned. His eyes stared without direction, reading the messy writing on the cover of the book ‘ Pamela's from the handsome blue-eyed sister’.
“How can it?”, muttered Leon.
He immediately ordered Alonso to find information related to the fairy tale book found in Pamela's outdated room.
“Everything you have to get tomorrow, I don't care anything, send all your men”, Leon's orders firmly from inside the car.
The book that only a few people in this world have is a limited print, what little Pamela might steal from someone else's house. But the scratches of the pen on the cover of the book, can not be denied make Leon fly in the past.
Wasn't that little girl all this time the woman he loved? It's said the fairy tale book disappeared on the way home, but why could it be in Pamela's rundown house.
Various questions teased Leon's head, now he had to find out something that stuck his heart. Leon decided tonight to go home to the mansion, he was looking for a worn hair ribbon neatly tucked away in a glass box.
“Who among you helped me ?”
Leon continued to wonder, impatiently waiting for the morning to come. He was sure he would find the answer tomorrow, and wanted to close his eyes immediately. But the sound of the phone ringing disturbed him.
“Ya what's wrong?”
“Tell him to use the money, otherwise cancel all”
Firmly Leon on the caller, all will be completed in the near future. Do not want to be dissolved in everything that started and now increasingly make him confused.

Tok.
“Young master, Mr. Alonso came looking for you”, the voice of the butler was faint but Leon's ears caught it clearly.
He washes his face and wears the clothes he opened last night, rushing down the stairs to make Mrs Torres suspicious.
“APA AGAIN?”, he exclaimed preventing Leon from descending, really one of the traits of this Madam is declining on her only son.
“What is that model? Beware of you if you marry her, I make you suffer, do not underestimate me because I am old”, threatened Mrs Torres, and Leon was careless about the attitude of his mother this one, he said, likes to threaten also use power for everything, ah he does not reflect whether he is the same always using power to suppress someone.
“That's Alonso. Do you think right now that I like Alonso?”, exclaimed Leon, his footsteps blocked.
“Ah so, meet the young man, I think the unclear model was”
