Thomas walked out of the room. Thirst woke him up. On his way to the kitchen how surprised Thomas was to see Jennifer still there. The woman remained where she was. How could Jennifer still be there sitting on her legs bent and sleeping?
Thomas immediately turned on the light. Jennifer's feet could go numb if it was like that. Just as the whole room was getting light, Jennifer moved. Slowly her eyes opened.
"What are you doing here, Jennie. Change your leg position." Thomas couldn't bear it. Jennie's face was pale from exhaustion.
"I'm sorry," Jennifer whispered.
"Okay. Sit on the sofa. I'll talk. Drink this warm water," said Thomas, handing him a glass of warm water that he took from the dispenser with a mixture of two types of hot and cold water.
Jennifer complied and drank the water Thomas gave her. Meanwhile, Thomas sat down and waited for Jennifer to finish. Luckily the whole house was in warm mode. So that Jennifer will not be cold.
Jennifer put down the glass. Unusually Jennifer just leaned back and waited. It seemed Jennifer had pondered everything. Thomas hoped that this time Jennifer had really regretted it.
"I've been honest with you, Jennie. I don't know where Alex is. Is he alive or not. But Alex did take one of my works, namely a human with his DNA and already has a face and body exactly like him. At first I wasn't sure if your husband is the state secret police official. But after we had a hard time rescuing Jims, your husband sent help. That's why we survived." Thomas took a deep breath. Then he continued his speech. "Alex just left a message for you to be under my protection for the time being. If you don't believe me. Come with me."
Thomas went to his secret laboratory. Jennifer followed closely behind. When the secret door is opened the two enter and Thomas shows Alex's writing.
"This is writing and a language specially made for international secret agents. I didn't expect Alex to be very good at using our language. This language was deliberately created so that our information could not be obtained even if it was stolen," said Thomas.
Jennifer stared at the writing on the wall. At a glance, Jennifer knows that if you look at the neatness and size of the writing as well as the direction in which the writing stands, that is the hallmark of Alex's writing. But for a moment Jennifer is confused when Thomas says that Alex is the secret police.
"Secret police? Alex works as a novelist," said Jennifer.
"Of course. Do you think Jims' job is also a secret service? No. In the general world Jims is a businessman. Have you forgotten?"
Jennifer was silent. Not like in the movies. Secret agents in the real world do not disappear, but have two identities. One public identity and one secret identity. In fact, it is not uncommon for secret agents to choose to be homeless or crazy people as their identity in society. They choose this identity usually because it is easier to stalk and not attract people's attention.
"I continue. This writing has meaning if Alex takes and uses a human replica of himself and also asks me to be by your side when he is not around. As if Alex knows what will happen to him. I just arrived at this house. This message has already made by Alex three or four days ago. Therefore believe me, I really don't know where Alex is. But if you have decided to join us. Then today I will comb the place where Alex crashed and look for any traces left behind."
"But why do you expect so much from me," Jennifer said.
"That's because you have the potential to win against the enemy. The terrorists are not random enemies. Generally they have an IQ equivalent to Einstein and above. They are smart, cunning and feel right about their actions. That's why International Secret Service only recruits members who have the same qualifications but have a creative tendency and a risk-taking madness. You fulfill all of that." Thomas pointed at Jennifer without hesitation.
Jennifer was silent. Thomas led Jennifer out of the lab and into the study. They sat opposite.
"Is this also my father's wish?" Jennifer asked.
"Of course. When our spies told us that something had happened to you, Jims and I headed straight for the woods and hoped it wasn't too late. Seeing you dumped in the pack we felt hopeless and failed to fulfill Steven's wishes. You were trained by Steven from a young age for all this. Jims and I know your abilities. Although we also don't know why you pretend to be innocent," said Thomas.
Jennifer was very surprised. So Thomas and Jims had known about Jennifer all along.
"We've been waiting for you to show your real face. But things got complicated. Especially when you decided to get married. We're losing hope. But we're still monitoring your progress from afar," said Thomas. "Now, decide well. Will you join or..."
"I'll join," said Jennifer, ending Thomas's words.
Hearing Jennifer's words made Thomas surprised and doubtful. Thomas looked into Jennifer's beautiful eyes, but found no change there. Jennifer wasn't lying. But secret agents can manipulate that.
"I swear that I will join you guys and be ready to undergo any series of fan training duties after," said Jennifer.
"Okay. I accept." Thomas immediately made a quick decision. Isn't that what you've been waiting for?
"Keep your promise to find Alex's tracks," Jennifer said.
"Of course you don't have to worry. Actually, without you telling me, I will definitely do it," said Thomas.
Jennifer felt a little relieved. Meanwhile, Thomas immediately contacted several people to conduct a secret investigation at the location where Alex had an accident. After that Thomas asked Jennifer to rest. Moreover, it was already early in the morning.
"Rest for a while. Later there will be officers who will take our belongings to a new place. We can no longer live in this house," said Thomas.
Jennifer nodded and went into the room. Meanwhile, Thomas went straight to work and reported that Jennifer had agreed to become a member of the secret. After that Thomas separated the important stuff and not from each room to another. It took a long time to finish all of that. But Thomas didn't want anything to be left behind or burnt with other things.
In order not to be sleepy and lonely. Thomas turned on the television. That's when he was very shocked to see the news in the media about Hamilton's death. The news said that if Hamilton wasn't sick, he was just taking sleeping pills as usual. After that the next day did not wake up at all despite being woken up several times until the doctor declared Hamilton died of a heart attack while sleeping.
