Secret Denis
The Forty Six

By midnight Alex's car entered the yard of a house with a fairly tight guard. Alex quite salute to see the alertness of his men, even though it was midnight but they are still on standby in the place that has been determined. Their existence is not too noticeable because Alex does not want them to be the subject of attention from the surrounding residents.

Around the house it looks lonely. Plus the location of the house far away from the nearest neighbor. It makes the house seem uninhabited. However, as soon as Alex's car stopped, a man came to him.

The man swiftly opened the car door for Alex and stood waiting until the man got out of his car.

Without saying anything Alex immediately stepped foot into the mansion. On the sofa of the family room Denis was sitting leaning back with his eyes closed. Her thin lips looked slightly revealed.

Alex's steps were swallowed as his eyes were fixated on seeing Denis who was a little messy. There was a subtle sigh in her chest looking at Denis who was sleeping with his innocent face.

Alex squeezed his hair with a huff. Closing his eyes for a moment while neutralizing his feelings. Trying to get rid of the crazy thoughts that are getting more and more painful every day.

'I have to see a psychiatrist soon.' He muttered to himself.

"Dennis!" He called out to the person who seemed to be so exhausted.

No need to repeat the call because Denis immediately woke up. He squinted at both corners of his eyes. Then look at Alex with narrowed eyes. Perhaps it still felt glare by the light rays because its eyes had just opened.

"Lo just came?" Ask in a slightly hoarse voice. Unwittingly by Denis, Alex squeezes his own fingers.

"Where is he?" Ignoring Denis's question, Alex soon searches for the person he really wants to meet right now. Not because of his longing, but because he wanted to finish all the affairs that were bothering him as soon as possible.

Denis reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a key. His chin pointed at the room not far away as he handed the key into Alex's hand.

Alex headed straight for Denis' designated room. Open the room door using the key given by Denis.

"Alex..!" A man in the room approached Alex. But Alex's sharp gaze and Alex's hand gestures beckoned to him to stop his steps, making the man's steps stop. But his eyes implied regret and fondness.

"Tell me, where did you hide the two men?" Alex's voice was low and heavy. Ignoring the man's longing gaze.

"I'm sorry for making them run away from you. But now I don't know where they are." His voice sounded soft. But it wasn't enough to make Alex's heart touched.

Alex grinned at the man's words, which unfortunately, was destined to be his sister.

"You think I believe in your bullshit? She's your mama, of course you'll defend her and hide her from me." Alex growling. If only there was no blood relation with the man, it would be like he was beating the man.

"I'm not lying. When they got out, they ran in a different direction than me. Alex, trust me. You can do anything to me as long as you forgive me."

Alex smiled cynically. There was no trust left in his heart. Reno was just looking for his attention. I don't know what he's planning. Alex should find out right away.

"Then why did you come back here? Why not run away with them? Are you out of money?" Ask Alexis cynically. Reno gulped for a moment. Suppressing the real anger was so lodged inside his chest. The humiliation that Alex deliberately threw was very hurt her self-esteem. But he had to be patient against Alex, he had expected this before.

"I want to meet papa. After all, your father is my father as well. I also want to apologize to you because I realized all this time, I've been bad for you." Reno lowered her gaze. Then looked at Alex with a glare looking for the man's sympathy.

"Do you think I'll believe everything you say?"

"Have you forgotten that as long as you're not home I've been taking care of papa?" Reno chimed in on the question Alex asked.

Reno gnawed her forehead in despair. I don't know what to say to Alex. But his determination has been unanimous to keep trying to get Alex's trust back.

"I.I don't know my mama's behavior all along. I think my mom took good care of my dad. Believe me, I was so angry that I knew that my mom and my mom had a special relationship. All this time I trusted them so much. Just as you believe in them. I was so embarrassed to know the truth. That's why I wanted to meet with Papa, I wanted to apologize to him. Please let me meet with papa."

"Just you're sorry. Papa can't do anything right now. He's in critical condition. And it's all because of your mama and her lover!!" Alex shouted at the end of his sentence. He slammed his fist into the wall until his knuckle bled.

"If you don't survive, so will your mother and her lover!"

Alex walked out of the room after uttering a threatening sentence. Close the door hard and lock it from the outside. Then he threw his body on the couch. He ignored the voice of Reno calling his name from behind the door.

Denis, who did not miss a single scene in the room, immediately took the P3K box. Sit next to Alex and grab Alex's injured right hand.

Without saying a word, he cleaned Alex's finger wound. There was no pain when Denis washed the wound with alcohol. He just fell silent and looked at his hand that was being treated by Denis. His breath still sounds hunting. Either because of his unfinished anger or something else made him so.

Denis returns to save the P3K box to where he came from after he finished treating the wound on Alex's hand.

"Sleep for a second. You must not have slept a bit." Denis said slowly.

"I have to go back to the hospital." Alex clenched his finger that Denis had just treated. Feels stiff and sore of course.

"Tomorrow in the morning. Now you better take a break."

Alex was silent for a moment. Considering Denis's words just now. It seems like he needs a break. It's almost early morning.

According to Denis, Alex finally laid his body on the sofa. He didn't want to go to the room even though Denis had told him to sleep in the room.

Denis himself sat on the other sofa. Playing the phone in his hand while occasionally glancing at Alex who was already asleep in his sleep.

*****

It felt like just an instant Alex closed his eyes when the phone in his pants pocket continuously rang. I don't know what the ringing was, Alex had to take the thing. With eyes not yet fully opened, he answered the call.

"What??" Like being stung by an electric current, Alex's body straightened out of position. With messy hair he moved from inside the room. Denis who was still awake was very surprised to see Alex who looked very panicked. Even half-run the man had already got out of the house and entered his car.

"Lex!!" Alex almost hit Denis who followed him out of the house. Luckily Alex braked his car in time. His face was so shocked when he saw Denis in front of his car.

Without caring for Alex, Denis opens the car door next to Alex and tells him to move into the passenger seat. He felt very dangerous that Alex was driving in such a state of panic. With no objection, Alex immediately moved on and Denis sat behind the wheel.

"Hospital?"

"Yes." Yeah."

Mobilpun drove at high speed splitting the streets were quite quiet. No conversation during the trip. Both of them were staring at the road they were going through. It's just that Alex seems so agitated, waiting to arrive at the hospital feels too long, even though Denis has been driving at an above-average speed.
