My Missing Girl

23. shocked (II)

 There is no news from the person who is missed like an endless leaf. That's how Fred feels now. The teenage boy had been very busy for a few days because there was no news from Hannah. The girl should have come to teach him to draw. But the girl had not been to his house for three days. Fred had tried to contact Hannah by phone, but the number Fred called was off.

Jessica, who saw her son glum, came up to Fred and asked, "Why you, boy?"

Fred remained unmoved, ignoring Jessica's question despite hearing what his mother had to say.

It turns out that longing is that heavy, some say being sincere is a difficult thing. But the fact is that for Fred patience is a difficult one to delay. He can't wait to get a reply from Hannah's phone. He was worried that Hannah wouldn't teach him anymore. And worse, Fred was afraid that Hannah wouldn't see him again. If that's the case, Fred can't imagine if it's true, Hannah left and didn't want to appear in front of Fred.

"I don't want that to happen!" Fred exclaimed hysterically, and it took Jessica by surprise with the behavior Fred had just shown. Fred's hysterical attitude that he had never shown in a long time.

"Hi, boy? Are you okay?" Jessica is closer to Fred, about to grab her son ─ Jessica wants to calm Fred down. But Fred quickly raised Jessica's hand who was about to hug him. "Mom, don't be like this. Can you leave me alone?"

"Boy? ─”

"You kicked me out?"

Fred shouted in a loud enough voice, "Mom! Please leave me alone." Jessica's tears fell when she received this kind of treatment from her son. With tears streaming, Jessica leaves Fred's room, leaving Fred alone as her son wishes.

At first, Alex is worried about Hannah's condition, in every sleep he always thinks about Hannah, about how Hannah is? Is Hannah healthy or not? But his worries for Hannah change when he gets to Hannah's house. Once there, he became worried about himself. Because Adam, all Alex knew was Hannah's brother confronted him with a lot of questions. Like...

"Who are you?"

"Are you Hannah's friend?"

"Since when did Hannah befriend you?"

"Why hasn't Hannah ever spoken to me about you?"

"I apologized before, judging by your appearance. You look more au than Hannah. So are you sure it's Hannah's friend?"

Oh my God, if only this man in front of her wasn't Hannah's older brother. Surely, Alex would chop it up with his kitchen knife. But since Adam is Hannah's older brother, Alex abandons his intentions.

"Sorry if I'm too presumptuous, and interrupt your free time. But the truth is I'm Hannah's friend. I came here to see Hannah because when I went to the hospital and asked the nurse, she said Hannah had been sent home."

Adam still couldn't believe it and looked at Alex with a full look. Adam was all over Alex's body with his eyes. He looked from top to bottom to make sure this man in front of him wasn't a dangerous person.

"What's your name?"

"Alex."

"You wait a minute, I'll ask Hannah first."

"Thank you," Alex was about to step forward ─ into the house. But Adam immediately stopped Alex by intercepting the tall man with his hand. "You wait outside, I won't let you in."

Brak...

The door of the house was roughly closed by Adam. Inviting an annoying talk from Alex, "oh watch out if you!" swears Alex inwardly upset.

Adam went upstairs to go to Hannah's room, arriving at Hannah's doorstep. Adam knocked on the door. "Hannah?" Adam called Hannah a few times. But the girl didn't answer the call, was the girl taking a nap?

"Hannah? Are you sleeping?"

"I just finished taking a shower, Ad. What's wrong?" the girl replied but did not open the door for Adam.

"Hannah? Don't you want to open the door for me?" Adam Gomel because he felt ignored by Hannah.

Hannah opened the door, she showed part of Ashe si body. "What's wrong? Why are you looking for me."

"Do you want to do something?"

"Yep, I want the marathon radio broadcast I left yesterday."

"Ck, why do you like that unimportant radio broadcast anyway?"

"If you come here just to bully me you can go!!"

Hannah is emotional because her favorite radio broadcast is insulted like by Adam.

"Alright, though I'm here to let you know if someone is looking for you."

"Huh?!" Hannah was so surprised, who was looking for her? Her friends did not know if she was hospitalized.

"Don't overdo it, if you want to enjoy your time off. I'll tell him to go and tell him if you're on a break."

"Who's looking for me?"

Adam said, "I don't know either, he said he was your friend."

"Boy or girl?" Hannah asked.

"Grown man."

"Don't be kidding me, Adam! I'm seriously asking!" Hannah was talking while gassing.

"I'm not kidding, Hannah. He is indeed a grown man."

"That means he's not my friend. Since when did I have friends grow man. Do you think I’m a Sugar baby?"

"Okay, if he's not your friend. I'm going to kick him out." As Adam was about to leave, Hannah intercepted the man by dislodging her body in front of Adam. Hannah hadn't asked which of the person's name — the person who came to see Hannah.

"Whose name is he, Ad?"

"Who was that? I forgot, for a moment..." Adam seemed to be thinking. Think and remember who the man's name is. It was only a few minutes, but Adam had forgotten about it. You young people today.

"Adam! What's his name?" Hannah asked once more out of annoyance. It had been a while but Adam didn't answer quickly.

"For a moment... Give me a moment."

"Ck, slow bottom." Hannah sneers at Adam who behaved foolishly like this.

"Keep your mouth shut, Hannah." Hannah just rolled her eyes, being very stupid about whatever Hannah said."

"There is! Come on what's his name?"

"For a moment?"

"When, Adam!"

"Patience, I have truly forgotten his name."

Hannah remained patient even though in her heart, but Hannah's heart was very angry.

"Ah, I remember his name!"

"Who?" Hannah is as enthusiastic as Adam who has just remembered the person who claimed to be Hanah's friend.

"Alex's his name!”

"Hah! Who did you say?" Hannah chided in, then asked again to be sure.

"Alex, Hannah. He's your friend when he's your friend."

"Now where is he?"

"In front of the house, I wouldn't let him in, because I was afraid he was just a crazy person.”
