My Missing Girl

34. The hot

Alex was very upset when Hannah talked to him. Alex felt his mistake was huge. Alex realized he was wrong, but he got too carried away. He also didn't know where the urge came from so he dared to kiss Hannah.

Alex wants to say sorry but Hannah avoids him instead.

Like today Hannah avoided it again. The girl did not want to respond, Hannah also sat in the front row rather than in the back row, when the class began. That's why Alex concludes Hannah is very angry with him.

It just so happened that Cindy was sitting with him, they were sitting next to each other. "Why, Al?" Cindy asked because of the poo.

Cindy has been watching Alex since then, Alex looks so moody he also always glances where Hannah sits. If Cindy could guess, surely their problem wasn't over.

"I'm fine, Cin."

"Come on, Al. please tell me the same story. I know you have a problem? With Hannah?"

"Why are you talking about that?"

"Because of the real awesomeness, get used to it as a negative magnet - positive - both pull each other - pull, but now you two are even like positive magnets - positively reject each other." Cindy is a special author.

Alex exhaled, he replied to Cindy's words with, "Lo's talk is not appropriate, Cin?"

Cindy said, "What do you mean?" Cindy asked again to be sure.

"yes, it's not appropriate. If I think personally the circumstances between me and Hannah are more like dumplings," Alex lowered his head, briefly. Before he continued his remarks but had not had time to continue, Cindy replied with a sneer, "should you liken it to dumplings?"

"Yes, the dumplings, there are two types. Gravy dumplings and fried dumplings. If the dumplings are chewy and warm, while the fried dumplings are savory on the outside and soft on the inside."

Cindy echoes very much because this old man is not connected from before so she who can't wait to jolt Alex with, "What do you mean anyway? I don't swear."

Alex remained calm, then continued— pouring out his heart. "The parable is following the same circumstances of me and Hannah. If it's like, Hannah the dumplings and I the method of serving, whatever dish is chosen remains the main star dumplings. I think I'm the Iike that, Hannah."

So Alex likens him and Hannah to dumplings because Alex feels Hannah is the dumpling while he is the method of serving, why is that? Because whatever the taste of gravy or fried if there are no dumplings will not be useful. Since dumplings are the main star, suppose dumplings are eaten soberly —without being processed with some other seasoning. Dumplings still have a taste even though it is not arbitrary if processed. But if it's just broth (for dumplings) or cooking oil, what do you get? There is no taste or tenderness there. At least that's what Alex is experiencing now, Hannah could be happy and feel safe even without her, but if Alex? He couldn't because Alex felt Hannah was his world.

Cindy gaped in disbelief at Alex's explanation, "the story of irises."

Alex didn't want to give up, when the lecture hours were over, he followed Hannah from behind—from out of class to on the main doorstep of the campus.

Hannah rebuked the man, "What are you doing Al?" Hannah glared at Alex with her sharp gaze.

"I just want to go home with you, Hannah," Alex said in a low voice and settled Hannah with a look full of sadness. Alex was so sad to be away from Hannah like this.

"I told you, I don't want to see you just yet. Are you deaf? So I didn't hear what I said." Hannah vented all her anger.

"I know, but I don't want to be far away from you."

Hannah was slightly stunned by her saliva when she heard Alex speaking like that. In her deepest heart, Hannah felt warmth when Alex spoke like that. But on the other hand, her enormous ego defies all that, because Hannah has to be a woman of high self-esteem, she doesn't want to melt her feelings just because of that simple seduction.

"Don't talk much, please shut up and please go away from me," Hannah would step away but her steps were stopped by Alex's grasp on her wrist.

"Hannah, I beg you, I'm sorry. We need to talk." Hannah didn't answer that what happened was Hannah blew Alex's hand tightly.

When Hannah was feuding with Alex, suddenly someone called her name out loud, "Hannah!" the man raised his hand excitedly towards Hannah. Hannah who was happy with the person's greeting also replied to her greeting.

"Fred! Why are you here?" asked Hannah enthusiastically from a considerable distance from where Fred was. That's when Hannah approached Fred's place. Then she repeats the same question "why are you here Fred?"

Fred did not directly answer Hannah's question, which there was a teenage boy instead hugging Hannah tightly, Fred missed Hannah very much. He was also worried that something would happen to Hannah because since he last met Hannah could not be contacted. Then Fred asks his father for help to find information about Hannah's circumstances. And the news Fred got from his father was the girl he missed so much had just had an accident and was hospitalized within a few days. Although Fred is here now to make sure Hannah's condition, is in good shape.

"Fred, are you crying?" Hannah asks because she feels her shoulders wet, Hannah creates a distance between her and Fred. Hannah looked at Fred intently, then he reached out his hand to wipe away Fred's tears streaming down his cheeks. "Why are you crying?"

Fred still didn't answer, the boy asked, "Are you okay?"

"What do you mean? As you can see, I'm in a very good state." Hannah spoke in a reassuring tone of voice. He wondered why Fred arrived at his college and strangely again Fred cried while hugging him earlier.

"I heard you just got out of the hospital? Are you sure you're okay?!" Fred interrogates Hannah with a question he's been answering for a long time.

Automatically Hannah was surprised, in her mind there were various questions such as, "Where did Fred know? No one knew about his condition other than his immediate family. Adam told him not to tell anyone about her condition."

Alex who had been silent behind Hannah, with a fair distance near Hannah heard all that Fred said. As a result, Alex is suspicious of the person because as far as Alex knows the situation Hannah is experiencing is very secretive, even he is not told in detail by James because 'patient data is a hospital secret and only the family can know.'

"I'm not sick Fred, where do you know the information that came from?" Hannah tried to be as calm as possible when answering Fred's question.

"Really? Looks like you lied to me." Fred who did not believe Hannah's statement was still trying to interrogate the woman.

Hannah was so confused as to what to answer, so she just fell silent. Because Hannah is not good at lying. What happened was Hannah was stricken with panic suddenly, Hannah also did not know why to feel this way. When she wanted to answer Fred's question, Hannah's tongue complained that her head was stricken with fairly tight dizziness. Alex who saw Hannah's change also panicked, he approached the girl supporting Hannah's body from behind. "Hannah, what are you?" Alex asked in a panic.

"Al?"

"Yes, is it me?"

"Are you okay - what?"

Hannah did not answer the girl instead embracing Al's arm very strongly, she said softly. "Al's headache, my body feels stiff," Hannah complained in a very quivering voice. Alex, who noticed Hannah's changing condition after talking to Fred, said he was emotional, "What did you do to Hannah!" Alex jerked Fred who was standing stiffly in front of him.

Fred was terrified, nor did he know why Hannah had turned out to be like that. Because he only asks Hannah's circumstances instead of doing anything bad to Hannah.

“A bastard boy,” Alex cursed Fred in a loud voice. Fred was even more afraid when he was hit like that.

"I'll take you to the hospital, hang on." Hannah nodded, Alex held Hannah in a bridal style. When Alex was about to leave it stopped when someone called his name. "Alexander?"

Automatically Alex stopped seeing who was calling him because he felt familiar with the voice. When he looked, it turned out that the man was Jordan. Exactly he is Fred father

When he found out the man was Jordan, Alex quickly went to take Hannah with him and before actually leaving he said, "Lest you come before Hannah if I don't want to Bill you."

Upon arrival at the hospital, Alex was discriminated against by James. The man hit Alex with all his might, James was already like a raging bull when he beat Alex. James is surrounded with a million emotions so he doesn't give Alex a chance to explain the situation that happened before so Hannah's condition became like this,

"James, please stop, I'll explain."

"I don't want to hear your excuse, Hannah like this must be because of you." James is still confident in his belief in Hannah's circumstances if Hannah becomes like this because she hangs out with Alex.

Alex held James' sturdy body with the rest of the energy he had, he said quietly, "Please stop, I have something important to say. I know you take great care of Hannah because I'm also like you I want Hannah to be in good health and no one should bother Hannah."

"Say quickly," James finally gave Alex a chance, although in his heart he was still very angry with Alex. That seemed very meddled with Hannah's life.

"I met Jordan earlier."
