The Conqueror of the Miss Heart
156. I'm your Son
"Dad ...."
Dad Alex and the troupe have just decided to return. Actually Alex's own dad was so heavy to leave the place, his premonition said that there was a possibility that his son was still alive. And just as he was about to get into the car, he heard someone calling him Dad.
Soon he brushed his mind off, maybe he missed his son too much until his ears were like hearing his son's voice or it might just be the puffiness of his men.
"Dad..."
Again, the voice was heard even this time more clearly. Dad Alex still doesn't touch him.
A man and Alex rounded his eyes, when he saw who had just called his boss. Soon he rubbed his eyes, maybe he saw it wrong. Or maybe it is a ghost who wavers because it died unnaturally. Repeatedly rubbed his eyes and the shadow was still there, now it was getting closer.
In the darkness and out of the forest, surely the beholder would think the same. Because the bonfire that was burning there had been extinguished when they decided to go home, its position close to the forest was feared to be the cause of forest fires later.
"Dad, don't you hear me. I've been calling you from a distance." With breath chasing after running in the forest, Daniel grumbled.
Is he human? ask the man who saw how Daniel protested.
Looks like he's human, Mr. Alex seems to think like me so he's quiet. I have to tell him.
The man approached his master. "Sir, someone called you" he said.
Dad Alex gasped, meaning he wasn't the only one who heard the voice. But he still could not believe it, he asked the others. "Did you hear that voice, too" asked Alex's dad to everyone in the car with him. Because there are only two cars left there, others have already returned to bring the bodies. Everyone who was asked nodded, so they all kept quiet thinking that it was a ghost.
Daniel was so careless to see their behavior, how could they think that he had become a ghost.
"Your son is alive dad, how can he be a ghost" Daniel exasperated.
They all turned their heads including Alex's dad who settled down in disbelief at someone who was now standing right in front of the car until the light of the car lights highlighted him. Is that really his son, Daniel still alive?
"Dad, do you still not believe that I'm alive?" Daniel was getting upset.
" Are you really, son, you still alive?" Dad Alex is approaching. He saw the face and body of his son who looked very different but he could still recognize that it was his son.
"Abroad!! Maybe Daddy has another son. Daddy's loyal to your Mommy."
"Yes, that's the time." Blinking shoulders.
A second later, they fell silent. Their eyes looked at each other. Unmistakably, the brat in front of him right now was the son who had been lost for days like being swallowed by the earth. He's Daniel who's been making everyone panic and worry for days.
Their lips both curled upwards. Dad Alex first stretched out his hands, Daniel went straight into the warm embrace of his daddy.
"I didn't think I could still see Daddy" Daniel said.
"Bad boy, where have you been! Your wife and Mommy passed out several times when they heard the news about you. It turns out you're okay here." Patting his son's back hard enough. The corner of his eyes was already watery, but Alex's dad didn't want to show it to the son.
"Awww. Dad's sick. My body is like a crumble like this, Daddy hit him instead," Daniel stirred in pain.
"You deserve to be punished for worrying everyone. Daddy told you not to go, but you're a wayward, this is how parents don't listen."
"Sorry Dad, next time I won't leave without your permission anymore."
The men who saw the father and son hugged were also moved. They also did not expect that their young master could survive the rampage of nature and beasts. This is truly a miracle.
Daniel's other colleagues emerged from the forest one by one. What was lost was found, everything was complete.
"Son, I thought you were killed by a wild animal." Yeah after finding Daniel's stuff, Alex's dad's mind is screwed.
Dad Alex and everyone else told me what they saw when they got there. While waiting for the pickup car that will transport them all away from there.
Everyone shuddered to hear the story of the discovery of a body torn apart in the tent. Somehow their fate if it was also in the tent.
"Cons will reap what they plant." The Islamic youth who was among them, maybe he was the only resident of A city left. During this time he wandered outside the island, devoting himself to boarding houses. Never once did he do what the residents of town A did, even though his family did the same thing.
