TRAPPED IN THE PAST STORY
CHAPTER 36. MEET ALEA

As he was walking from the opposite direction, Daniel caught a glimpse of a girl. Intrigued by the girl he saw at a glance, Daniel walked back and tried to say hello to the girl. But the girl ran away because accidentally their eyes clashed with each other, the girl who panicked trying to run as fast as possible because she herself was still in disbelief, unsure and unprepared.

He was afraid that the person he saw was not the person he meant because in terms of appearance the man he met was so very different even though he still memorized the face. But not for Daniel, when their eyes clashed with each other plus the panic of the girl who suddenly ran away made Daniel pursue the girl. Daniel who is still not too familiar with the streets makes him lose track. After all, he saw his watch that had shown the time where he had to immediately get to the office and do his work.

A few minutes later after running away from the man, the girl immediately entered the house with a large enough size. He opened the door and sat there remembering the incident.

"I was almost caught!" said the girl while adjusting her breath.

"What are you talking about?" ask the girl's mother.

"Ti-no .. nothing." said the girl lying.

"Remember, never act! If you act up, I'm not afraid to hurt that weak woman. Don't you think I'm really nice to you, I just love your father but not you especially that weak woman."

"Yes mother." said the girl flatly.

"Quick you feed him in the barn! then meet me and your father up front. Remember don't mess around if you don't want that weak woman to get more tormented." threatened the owner of the house to the girl.

In office.

"Joe ... Jo ...!" call Daniel a little scream as he runs towards Johan who just got out of the car after driving his boss out.

"What's wrong? it seems serious." replied Johan cuek while playing the car keys.

Daniel tells Johan in a whisper.

"Really?? Don't bother talking!" johan asked in disbelief.

"So when I was about to enter from the opposite direction I saw a girl dressed strangely in my opinion. He doesn't dress like the people around him. Her clothes are so simple and tend to be far from the word fashionable. After looking at his clothes I accidentally saw his face, yes half the face to be exact, the face was not very clear because he left his face covered with the hat he was wearing. And I saw a file of burns." Daniel explained. " Our unintentional look made him run fast. From the look in his eyes I was sure it was him and he seemed to want me to find him but he was also afraid of being wrong if I wasn't the person he was referring to." Daniel again.

"What's chasing you calling his name?" ask Johan.

"No, I just call her noona, because I'm afraid of the wrong people." Daniel explained.

Johan was happy with the news from Daniel, but there were so many big questions in his mind.

The two of them begin to devise a plan to meet the girl they think is similar to her relatives.

Early spring in the morning.

"Lu'm sure he'll show up?" ask Johan.

"No." he said flatly as he continued to look at the road without noticing Johan who was talking to him.

"Why lu--" said Johan cut off.

"Lu can't be pinned! let's just pray he's through here. We wait until noon if he doesn't show up we go down the road that I was trying to chase after him, while giving a picture of him to the people around" said Daniel.

"Daniel, I admire you this time." Johan Ledek.

A few moments later.

They spent time alternating ordering coffee across the street from the office. When Johan finished buying a drink and was about to cross over to approach Daniel, Daniel called to come and walk slowly and then to the public telephone in front of the office to pretend to call and be able to at a glance ensure a face with a fairly close distance, he said, daniel, who hid behind the newspaper he read, was convinced that it was the same girl because her clothes were similar to yesterday's, namely torn jeans, white T-shirts with jackets, tall thin body with hair wrapped in a hat.

Daniel who had given a warning immediately approached the girl from behind followed by Johan. The two of them seemed like pickpockets who were about to take a wallet and cell phone and haap, the girl managed them to pepet and invited him to follow the steps of the two men who mepetnya.

The girl tried to obey everything that was being ordered there was no way she was trying to wriggle, because Daniel was near to put a gun into the girl's jacket. They deliberately brought the girl who was patted earlier into their mess which happened to be quiet mess no one.

Arriving at the mess, they put the girl in the room, then directed the girl to sit in a chair that has been prepared. Feeling that the gun was no longer near the girl began to dare to scream.

"Let go. let go of me!" said the girl shrieking while crying.

From his voice they were sure that the voice was very similar, not only that the girl he kidnapped was shouting in Indonesian. They both looked at each other in wonder. Johan quickly took off the hat that covered the face. When they saw the faces they both could not believe that the face they saw fit their minds even though there were some burns, like scars, to make sure again both of them immediately pull the jacket worn by the girl and peeped in the presence or absence of a small birthmark on the right shoulder. And right, Johan hugged immediately followed by Daniel.

While the girl who initially resigned still closed her eyes without seeing who the two people who were now in front of her and had brought herself by force like this. He felt shocked when he felt hugged, the hug he felt was so warm he seemed to have felt that hug once. It feels cured because it has not felt it for a dozen years.

Curious about what happened, he tried to open his eyes to ascertain who they were, his eyes were fixed on Daniel's eyes, he saw Daniel was shedding tears.

"I didn't expect you to be my sister" Johan said, smiling at his sister's forehead.

Not only Johan, Daniel who shed tears also saw it with a smile.

"What are you guys really?" aela asked curtly as Johan hugged her so tightly that she found it hard to breathe.

Johan then let go of his embrace while wiping Alea's tears.

"Lea, this is brother. Happy brother you are still alive." said Johan happily while wiping the tears of his sister who came out rushing.

"Lea, besides you are om and aunty safe?" ask Daniel full of questions.

Alea just nodded.

"Then where are the two now, let's take us there."

"Don't, if you go there, you'll be tortured" Alea lirih said.

"How do you mean?"ask both at the same time.

"We stayed at Aunt Ratih's house, she saved us from the plane crash. But the help he gave was not free. With our helplessness we could finally just keep quiet. Mama was paralyzed, and placed in a separate room from us. I can only visit him if allowed. And papa,-." It was clearly Alea who suddenly stopped telling stories.

"Why with papa?" ask Johan.

"Pa-papa lost his memory. He doesn't remember mom. After the accident papa fell into a coma for two months, and after realizing that he did not remember mama because of what he saw first when it was Aunt Ratih and me. So the woman confessed that she was papa's wife."

"Some time he! said Daniel furious. "Then what is this?" daniel asked, holding the scar.

"It's a scar from the explosion, lucky not to be so bad. When it happened, I was the only one who wasn't too bad, enough of this wound. And I heard that he didn't want to sign the surgery file that the doctor suggested to operate on these burns. She was on purpose because she thought my mama-like face was now covered by this burn. The goal is one, he doesn't want papa to remember mama's face."

"Does papa know you?" ask Johan.

"Yes, but papa is not like before. The woman dominated. So whatever the woman asks is always granted by papa while papa is like keeping a distance from me.

Hearing that Daniel became furious, he did not expect that the mother of his former lover had no heart. 'It looks like the woman's been brainwashing uncle Joshki.' "Why didn't you call us?" ask Daniel seriously.

"No way," Lea said as she shook her head. "I tried to contact you then, but it always failed. And I just found out that the old lady had a signal breaker installed. Even at home there is no internet or television. There are only available adult magazines with Asian models, daughter."

"Then, your school?" ask Johan.

"All my activities were restricted, including school and homeschooling. Not only that, he tapped my phone too."

"Why did he do that?" ask Daniel.

"Because he still loves papa, brother! every time I look at the old woman's face I think of Xavier, it should be that after he lost his son he was trying to improve himself, instead of scattering our family, bang!!" he said it while he pleased.

"Yes. Brother promises to soon unite our family again." said Johan while hugging his sister.

"Did the accident have anything to do with the woman?" ask Daniel.

"Yes, Richie deliberately crashed the plane. I also just found out that Richie loves Ratih. Richie always tries to comfort Ratih from his adversity that is still not accepted by his marriage with Leon. Richie who always accompanied Ratih made them both fall in love with each other and the two twins were their two children."

"What?! so Asia and her twin sister are the result of an affair between Richie and Ratih?" daniel asked in disbelief, because he knew Leon loved his twins so much.

"Yes brother. When Xavier leaves, Richie is happy he who knows that Ratih does not love Leon is sure they will get a divorce and he plans to marry Ratih. But Ratih always rejects it so that it makes Richie curious until Richie knows that the man who loved Ratih is none other than papa. Richie was jealous and had bad intentions to harm our family. He planned to hurt us on a trip to Korea to celebrate my birthday. But Richie's plan to kill us and the family is known to Ratih. But it's unfortunate that he died in that accident."

"It's good that he's killed! I myself wish that the old woman would follow her affair into the afterlife!!" daniel said emotion. "Why his love for uncle is not lost, if only he could forget his love then none of this will happen.!" daniel is still emotional.

"Then I go home first, it's almost afternoon, I have to come back before he suspects me" Alea said.

"I'm coming" said the two at the same time.

"Don't, please don't follow me. Listen to me carefully. We live two blocks from Dady's office. Give me one to two years to get Papa's mind back, and I'm trying to get you well and healthy from the paralysis."...

"Okay Alea, wait for us too. We promise to save you." Daniel said.

Alea, who saw her two brothers, could only smile bitterly when they did not meet for a long time, now met again even if only a few hours. And now he must return to the curse house so that the old woman does not suspect because if she was out for a long time it will not be safe for her mother, because Ratih did not hesitate to torture her mother, because, it was not the physical that was tortured but the mental mother. She knew the old woman's purpose was to mentally torture her mother because she wanted her mother to go crazy and not recognize her father anymore. Two people will lose their memories.

After Alea's departure, Daniel and Johan begin strategizing. Daniel's target in two years' time is to prove that he has become what the dady hopes to become because that is the first way he must do before saving Alea. As for Johan, he who is not too ambitious to be a businessman can only encourage Daniel so that his adoptive family can gather as before.
