My Missing Girl

28. Hot potatoes

Now James is very dizzy again, let alone his mind is full again. And unfortunately, there is a guard schedule from day to night, of course, he is getting dizzy. Fortunately, James didn't go crazy.

James does not work also has been rich and rich. But the name of fighting must be totality. And fortunately, he had a doctor's diploma at that time, so he had to make good use of it now so that his life was safe - prosperous all his life.

James intends to find a machine to buy a canned soda drink, intentionally James buys it to relieve his stress that is already very full to meet his head.

When James was in front of the drink machine, he accidentally saw Alex there. Out of curiosity, James came to Alex. But later after he gets the canned drink he wants. James also picked up one for Alex. Although James is still a little annoyed with Alex's behavior, he still feels disrespectful if he meets a friend with his bare hands. He brought his drink.

James walked up to Alex who was in front of the female staff room — usually, the female employees changed clothes there. Strangely, Alex was there. What's the same thing as him? Moreover, Alex is not a worker at this hospital.

James rebuked Alex, "what are you doing here man?" honestly Alex was a little surprised when James reprimanded him suddenly.

Alex replied casually, "It's none of your business."

"It's my business because as one of the hospital officials I have to make sure foreigners get into the hospital." James was looking for the right reason he told Alex.

"Hell, it's a hospital, that means it's a public place. It doesn't matter if I'm here."

"I know. But this isn't your domain, Alex. You did not see the sign on the front door writing 'staff only'" because Alex was fierce when talking to him earlier, As a result, James replied.

"I know, I got permission to come here. So you don't have to say a lot of vague talks."

James snorted, with Alex's pretentious reply in power when this hospital was not where he was. As a result, James dragged Alex away from there. Although James looks indifferent he cares about what happens, let alone this is Alexander Dyo. He was not an ordinary person who at any time could be a bomb to his surroundings.

"Let me go, James! What do you want anyway?"

"I need to talk to you, important." James stopped, he put his hand which he used to hold Alex's hand earlier.

"I don't think there's any important talk between us if we're like this — Alex intends to lead into their normal lives to be ordinary people."

"I don't think it's important, but I think it's really important, especially about Hannah."

"What do you mean?" Alex knew what James meant. But he's pretending to be stupid. He and James are the same.

"You're too dangerous for, Hannah — always near Hannah. Please stay away from Hannah and stop bothering her." James said firmly, this time he had to take maximum care of Hannah. He doesn't want to hurt Hannah, especially if he's near Alex, he's bound to attract a lot of people.

James didn't want that to happen.

Even James speculated if the terror message had anything to do with Alex. Because before Alex was with Hannah the message never came again, other than at that time. That's been a long time coming. So it's natural? James was prejudiced like that.

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"I'm talking about it, and no longer kidding, why am I talking about it? Because long before Hannah came safe, she never even got a message of terror —" James who was aware of what was said was wrong, stopped.

But Alex, who already knew, was managing for James to continue what he said earlier." What do you mean? Can you continue your words?"

"No, I was wrong to say that." James tried to dodge, but Alex was not deterred from trying to get James to tell him everything.

"I know you. And you won't be wrong to say, so, please be honest with me."

"I'm sorry, but I can't. It's for Hannah's sake. So please stay away from Hannah, that's enough. For all the questions in your brain. How to take care of Hannah, I know your good intentions. But I suggest you don't have to go to the point. Because Hannah would be in danger if it was near you."

Alex feels strange about James's behavior that suddenly advises him to such an extent. But James doesn't explain the root of the problem, which makes Alex even more emotional.

Alex pulled the collar of James' shirt, bringing his face closer to James'. "Whatever you say it won't make me give up Hannah."

Alex left not wanting to make a longer fuss with his friend. He better relent with his emotions if he doesn't want that great fight to happen.

"Do you like Hannah? What about Lili?"

Alex's move stalled, then turned his body to James, "none of your business." Alex just left James filled with a high sense of anger.

*

It's not Alex's name if he's a deterrent and gives up, he sticks with his stance of looking after Hannah. Especially after yesterday's incident where James said that he would harm Hannah if he was always with the girl. Alex didn't want to believe what James was saying, he knew about himself. Hannah needs to take care of him. Hannah needs his figure, a tough all-rounder like Alexander Dyo.

So Alex can't give up for the sake of himself and Hannah. To hell with James' words, he is not the God who created the Will over circumstances. Man can control, but if God doesn't allow it never happens. God never sent man where he shouldn't have been. So according to Alex, he's here now by the will of God who told him—perhaps, to take care of Hannah.

Alex exclaimed with delight when he saw Hannah step lightly—right in front of her. To liken her position to Hannah Alex stepped quickly to be next to Hannah. A moment later Alex embraced Hannah's shoulder with his big hand, "Hello Hannah. Morning." Alex greeted Hannah with a very bright smile.

But Alex's efforts were fruitless as Hannah brushed off her summary and encouraged Alex to stay away from her. "Why the hell? There go, don't be near me."

"Hannah, are you still angry with me?"

"I have no right to be angry with you. It seems we're not that close to having anger for each other. So, please stop being dramatic like this."

"Hannah, I'm sorry." Hannah left Alex in her place. Hannah doesn't want to be a faculty child spectacle. Ever since Alex approached her and suddenly hugged her shoulder Hannah was immediately noticed by the people who were there. Hannah didn't like that.

Alex is still chasing Hannah, he is still very eager to take Hannah's heart so as not to get angry again. Caring for the devil with self-esteem, Alex was even willing to auction his life for Hannah, such a willing person was just him now. Whatever it is Alex would do it if it was for Hannah's sake.

"What the hell, Al? I've been sorry. But I'm asking you to stay away now."

"Don't want to." Alex is still with his stance. He even hugged Hannah's shoulder again. Of course, Hannah was a result story, until at the end Hannah could no longer contain her emotions. "Please do the same. I need time. So, stay alone!" Hannah passed away after that talk. Hannah swears. And why did Alex's attitude become that? Don't realize what? If he and Hannah are different generations - that means the distance between Hannah and Alex is too far.

Arriving in the classroom, and want Hannah to get is calm. But what did she get excited about? Because what did Cindy come up with with a million questions...

"Hannah, what does Alex have to do with you?"

"Are you dating him?"

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"We are Hannah's friends! We're even best friends. So why don't you tell me the same story?"

Hannah deliberately let Cindy's chatty mouth ask everything according to her heart's will. When Hannah feels good enough, she'll just cut it. And now is the right time, so Hannah...

"Don't slander, I have nothing to do with Alex, are you satisfied? And I'm not going to say his name anymore."

It's not Cindy Fang if she doesn't become a journalist all of a sudden, "You're fighting Alex?"

"Fighting as a couple? Isn't it?"

"Oh my gosh, I said I don't have anything with Alex. So stop, don't talk much."

Cindy immediately stopped asking, she understood very well. If her best friend is already angry it means the problem has been quite complicated. As a result, Cindy stopped asking questions and let Hannah find calm. Although Cindy talks much she knows the limits because she knows Hannah's circumstances. If Hannah has too much thought and ends of stress it can affect Hannah's mental health.

Cindy returned to her chair and there was already Alex sitting in an empty place where next to the empty place was Cindy's bag—Cindy accidentally put her bag there as a sign if it was where she was.

Because Cindy is still curious as a result she has to extract information from Alex.

"Hey, Al?"

"Yeah?"

"Why are you sitting here? You usually sit next to Hannah." It's time Cindy dug up information between these two couples who might be in a relationship as Cindy suspected.

"She's angry with me?" WAW, it turns out that guys are more open to what they feel. As a result, Cindy had to use this opportunity.

"Why is she angry with you?"

"I don't know either, but Hannah said because I've always been with her. Is that normal?"

"Follow? what do you mean?"

Alex explains everything, the reason Alex follows Hannah everywhere is that he's worried. Moreover, Hannah was alone, Adam returned to work because Hannah told him to. Hannah doesn't want to make it hard. Plus Aunt Laura also went for a while to visit the brother who was again sick. So Hannah was alone, and Alex couldn't bear to let any of that go. Especially after the accident at that time Alex was really worried about Hannah. Because the incident at the location did not match Hannah's explanation. And from there Alex is convinced that something is wrong with Hannah's true situation.

Cindy is shocked by all of Alex's very detailed explanations, even those who have been close to Hannah and Adam for a long time don't know that far. When she asked Adam, his answer was always the same, "Hannah's been fine, she's okay. Hannah was just a little shocked."

But from Alex's explanation, Cindy concludes that something happened and that's a pretty severe situation — Hannah's real situation. "Aren't you kidding Al?"

"Kidding me what do you mean? I know, I took Hannah to the hospital, I got the story directly from the eyewitnesses who were there. But when Hannah realized her answer was different from the witness story. I became suspicious, but because I didn't want anything to happen to Hannah I was silent."

"I became suspicious..."

"Suspicious of what the sing?" Alex responded quickly.

"There's a point. You don't need to know."
