Until the night Alex was still awake next to the Arga Dinata bed. His eyes don't want to be closed one bit. Every now and then he checks his cell phone to find out the development of the search for three people who have fled from his captivity.
Denis is with Alex's men. Combing some of the alleged hiding places of Bisma, Tania and Reno.
At ten o'clock in the night Alex felt her stomach was asking for the right to be filled. Alex looked at his father who was still in the same position. He was a little worried about having to leave his father alone in the room.
He called a man to come in his place. Not long after, a man came into the room.
"I'm gonna eat in the cafeteria for a second. Please take care of my papa, lest you leave her even a little." Alex said to the man.
"Do I need to buy food and bring it here?" His men offered help. Alex nodded slowly. Actually he wanted to move his legs that felt stiff because he continued to sit guarding his papa. He also needs fresh air to calm his mind that feels tangled due to various problems that occur.
"I want to eat at the hospital. If there's anything, call me right away." He said as he left the place.
His men nodded obediently and sat down where Alex had sat before. Outside the room two men in charge of guarding the room Arga Dinata appear to be standing next to the door. They nodded respectfully as Alex walked out of the room.
The canteen on the ground floor of the hospital becomes Alex's destination. After ordering food, Alex sat at a table in the corner of the room. There were only a few canteen visitors at the time. Most people wear white uniforms. Maybe the nurse and also the doctor who got a night watch.
Alex pulls out his phone and calls Denis.
"Where are you?" The question is so connected.
"Gue again at home yesterday. Lo know? Reno is here now."
"What's? Reno?"
"He asked to meet you. But we'll hold him here."
"Where are Bhishma and Tania?"
"Reno said she didn't know. He said they were separated. Do you believe it?"
Alex was silent for a moment. His jaw hardened without Denis knowing.
"We just follow the game. You know what I mean?" Alex growled in a low voice.
"okay."
Alex is still staring at his phone after Denis disconnects.
A waiter came with food and drinks ordered by Alex. Believe me, his appetite was gone when he heard Reno's name. I want him to go to see his sister. But he abandoned his intentions for a while. He believes Denis can handle his sister.
A little lazy he started eating his food.
A woman who had just entered in a white coat was suddenly his concern. Alex was stunned for a moment. The woman stares at Alex, who is facing the entrance. His eyes narrowed and his steps went straight to where Alex was.
"Do we know each other?" The woman looked doubtfully.
"It looks so." Alex got up from his seat. Look at the woman in front of him to make sure that he does not mistakenly recognize people. Actually he's not sure. But considering the woman reprimanded him first, now Alex feels that there is no way he's wrong.
"Mother Fani?"
"Alex?" The woman's eyes were wide open. Seemed so shocked to see the person now standing in front of him.
"It turns out I still know me." Alex reached out his hand and was greeted with joy by the woman. The shock on his face began to melt away.
"Yes my. Is this really you, Alex? So, you survived those criminals? Yeah, God. Mercifully. It's very hard to believe. Are you still alive?" Fani's brother shook the hand of Alex he still held. After being released, Alex invited the woman to sit in front of him.
"Yes. I survived that time. Actually, it barely survived. Only the miracle of God has kept me alive today." Fani's mom still stared at Alex in disbelief.
Alex calls a canteen waiter and asks Fani to order a meal.
"Mr. I have returned to my own home. Denis is with me. We used to call mbak house, also to the workshop. But it never connected." Alex answered one question at a time from Fani.
"When did you call home?"
"A few months after the incident. Maybe two months."
"What's? Two months after the incident?"
"About that.."
Ma'am Fani sighed.
"We had moved here by then." he said regretfully.
"Why move? Did bang Theo move too?"
"Yes. We moved because we kept getting terror from unknown people. We're sure it's the same person who's been harming you."
"Diterored?"
"Yes. They threatened us that until it became known to the police or anyone, they would harm our family. Therefore, bang Theo decided to move here. Our phone connection broke. Our mobile number is changed. Trauma after the incident. Afraid that it will happen again. Sisil was always scared. We got to see a psychiatrist to help Sisil recover." Alex was stunned to hear the woman's words. It was unexpected that the problems caused by him would have a big impact on the family of the person who had helped him.
"I'm really sorry, ma'am. Because of helping me, my family's safety is threatened."
Ma'am Fani sighed. His eyes were dimly staring at Alex.
"Then, what happened to you guys back then? Why are two months calling?"
Alex told me briefly what happened to him as well as Denis. Especially what happens after an unbalanced fight because it turns out that the person who attacked them has a firearm.
Fani's brother held back his screech as Alex recounted how he was shot at close range by the man who was hunting him. The tension on Fani's face does not go away so Alex ends the story.
"You were shot and fell into the abyss?" The woman's eyes opened wide, staring at Alex.
"That's how mbak. Denis and I could not have survived if there had not been a God to save us. It really is a miracle. I never thought I would live to this day."
"Yes, God!" Fani covered her mouth with both hands. I looked at Alex in amazement.
"Where do you live? If there was time I would definitely meet mbak and bang Theo. Denis would've wanted to meet you guys, too." Alex switched the subject.
"Of course you have to come to the house. Our house is always open to you. But..What..your dealings are done with those criminals? Who are those people?" Fani's brother becomes hesitant given how ruthless the criminals who hunt Alex are. He had already sensed how they were not playing around in doing his act.
"Yes. I'm solving this problem. If this is over, Denis and I will definitely meet mbak and bang Theo." Alex breathed heavily.
" She wishes everything was okay." Mbak Fani said sincerely.
"Thank you."
Alex stared at the food that had been delayed because it was cool to tell Fani. So too with that woman.
They then both ate their food while talking lightly again. Fani told me how she could work at the hospital. And also her husband who opened a carwash and workshop in an area that is quite famous. Alex knows the area mentioned by Mbak Fani. He promises to come to the place with Denis if the problem is over.
Alex also told me about his father who was hospitalized. Madam Fani seems so serious listening to everything told by Alex.
At the end of their meeting, Alex asked Ms. Fani's phone number for her to call at any time. Fani happily gave her phone number and she also kept the man's phone number.
Then they separated because Fani had to return to where he was doing his duty. Alex went back to his papa's room.
