St Thomson's, Dallas

Chequelek

The forty-year-old woman opened the door of a girl's room lying weakly with an infusion hose in her hand.

"Angel wake up..Do you feel good, baby?" asked Victoria while putting a tray filled with porridge and then opened the dark green curtains so that sunlight into the room.

Hana opened her eyelids slowly. "Ergh.my head.." Hana groaned softly on her head which was painful when she got up from her sleep.

"Lay down.the doctor says you're malnourished and you're undernourished, Angel" Victoria said. The woman was sitting on the bed next to her hand and pulled over Hana's hair which had been strung over her beautiful eyes.

"Thank you madam. If I may know why you keep calling me Angel" Hana asked. Victoria smiled, her hands grabbed the tray on the nightstand and placed it on her lap.

"I don't know myself or the instincts of a mother who did that" Victoria said, raising both her shoulders. Victoria subconsciously fed the beautiful girl in front of her painstakingly. "You were like my late daughter, Angel when I first saw you. What is your name dear" asked Victoria holding Hana's chin which moved slowly chewing the porridge in her mouth.

"Rayhanas. You can call me Hannah, madam"

"Victoria. Or you can call me Mommy.or whatever you like." Victoria waved her hand.

Hana smiled, "Thank you.mom" said Hana accepted Victoria's feed and hugged the woman. "Suddenly I miss my mother." she continued to shed tears and rubbed with her back.

"You can call me dear mother from now on, oh.yeah how did you get there.e.mean mommy was in a Rolex place that mommy knew the man was quite dangerous. Especially with a businessman with a background as a mafia boss, Mr. Mitchel Gavind. Mommy hope you don't deal with them. They and their black world are terrible. Although all this time mommy worked as an owner nightclub as well as MUA but mommy tried not to follow their aura too far" said Victora then gave a glass of water to Hana. The girl gulped it down the toilet.

Victoria smiled as her right hand rubbed the wet end of Hana's lips from the white water with a tissue. "It seems I was kidnapped mom.and the first time I opened my eyes I was in a foreign place. I'm afraid mom.." explained Hana lowered her head. Victoria hugged Hana again to calm the frightened girl.

"Mom.you mentioned the name Mitchel Gavind. Do you know him?!" Victoria was surprised to hear Hana's question and nodded "Can you call for me. Besides mom I don't know anybody but Mitchel"

"Looks like you know the person you mean by Hana. I hope she doesn't hurt you or hurt you if she finds out about you" Victoria said, holding her phone.

Hana shook her head, "Trust me mom, because she used to treat me when I was in a coma" Hana replied playing her finger.

Victoria looked up at the beautiful girl, "How is it possible? He's a cold guy and with eyes as sharp as eagle eyes wants to take care of you? Ah..except___" Victoria paused her sentence because someone across the street had received the woman's call.

"Good morning sir Febio, I'm Victoria.

"Mrs. Victoria.." said Febio remembering Victoria's name. A famous woman works in the field of makeup artists as well as one of the owner night club.

"Yes. Is Mr Mitchel at his residence?"

"Sorry that his mistress is on important business and is not at her residence. Sorry if I can know what needs with him later I will convey directly"

"Rayhana was at my residence in Dallas. The girl knew Mr. Mitchel so she asked me to call you"

"Miss Hana is in Dallas with you mistress. Oh. shocking news. Well I'll immediately deploy a bodyguard to pick him up. And I thank you very much for your help even though I don't know how you got that nice girl out of there, Miss Victoria" Febio said happily.

Triings.

Mitchel blinked his eyes, distracted by the sound of a cell phone ringing.

"Ish.have punched me now look at your behavior. What's this hugging me" Mitchel complens to Reymond who somehow sleeps next to him.

Mitchel grabbed the phone and brought it closer to his ear, "Yes Febio.." Mitchel replied as he removed Reymond's arm which was on his chest.

"Sir, Miss Hana is in Dallas. I'll send the address via message"

Mitchel turned to Reymond who was asleep then smiled with a grin. A great idea was laid out in Mitchel's head this morning.

Half an hour later, the handsome man full of charm was already in the center of Dallas as Febio said that Hana was there with a woman.

**

The black BMW stopped in front of a simple two-story house. The path to the terrace of the house with a stretch of green grass cools the eyes. Some trees towering in the yard of the house covered the rising sun.

Someone in the car seemed to be making sure of something. It was evident from the expression of confusion on his face.

"Why is there no house number and not a___" Mitchel saw an old woman coming out of his house and the man rushed out of his car, "Excuse me madam, sorry to interrupt your time. I'm looking for this address. Maybe you can help me" Mitchel handed his phone to the elderly woman.

The woman stared at Mitchel's phone for a long time

Mitchel sighed. "Patience.patience. If it wasn't the old woman I'd have shot her in the head" he grumbled. But before long his phone rang a swearing tone from the caller made Mitchel keep the phone away from his ear and then decide unilaterally.

"What's going on here? Please forgive this old lady. He's senile and deaf so...You.." said Victoria suddenly surprised to see Mitchel in front of her house.

Mitchel seemed to wrinkle both eyebrows, "You're Victoria...?" Victoria nods to let Mitchel into her home.

"So grandma was deaf?"

"Yes.age factor. Come in. I know what you're coming here for. So I hope you don't bother me. Youunderstand?"

"Do I look sad, when you keep my precious possession in your house." Mitchel replied with arrogance.

Victoria smiled in response. "Well then at least let's have breakfast first. I see you didn't take the time to have breakfast. Hows it? tawar Victorians.

"Are you deliberately stalling my lady Victoria Abraham?" michel said the name Abraham.

"Of course not dear. And one thing I hate is Abraham behind my name. Oh. yeah, how valuable is something in my house that you came in such a hurry like this" Victoria asked pointing at Mitchel's shirt upside down.

Mitchel immediately covered his face in embarrassment. "Suddenly happy in the morning..."

"Or because of that girl you're so happy like this, hem?" sela Victoria's.

Mitchel lowered his head to cover his reddened face. "Well eat your breakfast I'll see Hana's condition. Maybe she's feeling better now." said Victoria, then rushed to Hana's room on the second floor.

"Mitchel fucked up. How dare he leave me in his apartment. Where'd he go. Ahh.yes.yes mobile. Where I put my cell phone" Reymond told him. Finally the man found what he was looking for and then it was seen that he was issuing his oath of absorbency to the person across the phone but he was increasingly visibly angry when his connection was severed unilaterally.

"Hallo Eric.so how did you find any clues to his whereabouts. Mami took a few days off and asked me about my marriage to Hana. I can't tell the truth"

"There has been no development of uncle. Excuse me. Mitchel's men who held Rolex said the man had arrested Hana before but the woman ran away and how could anyone take her place as a sandra, Rolex himself did not know uncle?

Reymond ruffled his waist as he stared at the tall building in downtown Texas. "I'll call you later. Okay" Reymond turned off the phone.

"Where are you, Hana.ck! I miss you, really" Reymond said.

The head covering made of grey wool thread adds to the pretty aura of a girl who is daydreaming. His face looks so sad.

"What makes my princess like this" asked Victoria slowly widened the door and stepped closer to the pensive Hana.

Hana looked up for a second then was surprised to see someone she knew standing behind her adoptive mother. "Mitchell...." Victoria turned around to find Mitchel right behind her back.

"Sorry madam I followed you because I miss you so much__" Mitchel said when her body suddenly pushed back as Hana lunged at her with a hug.

"Mitchel.I know you must have come to find me. Thank you" said Hana then unraveled her embrace. Netra was a little glazed over. Victoria too.

"You're fine" asked Mitchel tilting his face scanning. "It seems like my arrival doesn't make you happy. Oh.. I feel sad" Mitcel said full of made-up expressions. Victoria was astonished to see the familiarity an ice cube master could joke around with just a girl in front of her.

Hana hits Mitchel's arm, "What the hell is it anyway. I just miss papi, Mitchel" his accent in Indonesian.

"Daddy is fine in Indonesia so don't worry because I've told him your condition"

"Daddy what!" hana asked continuously hitting Mitchel's body.

"Ehem.I'd better go to the kitchen. I don't want to bother you both" Victoria interrupted and then she walked out of Hana's room.

"Mitchel.why did you do that to me!" hana asked after Victoria closed the door to her room.

"What I've done to you Hana. I came here to pick you up. Aren't you happy about that"

"You sent your men to ambush me. They say that you sent them to take me to a safe place but what? I'm almost the cheap woman that's going to be auctioned at the nightclub" the tearbub just drips away without being prevented.

Mitchel was surprised to hear Hana's words. "I...? sending my men to kidnap you couldn't have been Hana. What am I doing that for?"

"Didn't you ever do that to me. Did you forget?"

"That's another Hana story. You were dying then. And only advanced medical help can you stand up as you are now"

Hana turned her body to look at the dark brown bead before her to trace the lie but there was only honesty implied in it

"I'm sorry. I didn't know they used your name to make me hate you or what it was. I don't know" Mitchel immediately hugged Hana tightly. Really let even for a moment it can be like this without having to separate the distance and time so far.

Until one day he was able to release or even bury his feelings deeply. He knows his love is unrequited no matter how hard he tries. His background as a mafia became one of the factors. Mitchel feared the woman he loved would be the target of his enemies in the black world. At least let it be this way.
