" Don't take this hat off, there's a lot of people here. Everywhere there are reporters, they must be looking for you." exclaimed Ainsley and returned to tidying up his suitcase.
" Did a flight attendant have a hat like this?" ask Halbert later.
" No." pause Ainsley.
" Someone once rebuked me, saying I looked like Allen Dawnson. So every takeoff, I used to wear hats so people couldn't see my face." she continued.
" I knew you were my brother" he added, leaving Halbert instantly shocked.
" When did you find out?" ask Halbert later.
" Humm.." Ainsley seemed to think. "A year ago."
Hearing the beautiful girl's words in front of him, Halbert fell silent.
" You know, the reason I became a flight attendant was so I wouldn't stay home. So that I would always get out of town with my busyness so as never to see the news about Mama." suddenly Ainsley told me with a sad face, something Halbert had first seen.
" Homeway. Mama must be a little comforted if you're around." Halbert said, switching the conversation.
Afterwards he passed without taking off the black hat Ainsley wore.
*****
Arriving outside the airport, Halbert who was about to walk to the place where his car was parked, suddenly panicked when from behind he heard a gunshot that was so thunderous. Suddenly the atmosphere became violent, everyone was running around protecting themselves. While Halbert, he turned to the source of the voice. And how surprised he was when he saw a woman and a man who were fighting fiercely.
Halbert looked at the two men's quarrel not far from him. His gaze was only directed at the figure of the woman in black hat who wore a mask until almost the entire face was covered.
The more he observed, Halbert realized that the woman who had somehow tried to protect him by hitting the opponent's body with fists and powerful kicks. It looks like she is so good at martial arts.
After a while, two people that Halbert observed are now over fighting— the man who became the opponent has now been sprawled on the ground. While the woman approached Halbert without taking off the hat and mask until Halbert could not recognize him.
" Who are you?" ask Halbert.
" You don't need to know. Take this and give it to your father. After that your family's problems will be solved." the woman gave Halbert— a very small flash drive.
Halbert accepted in confusion. Afterwards, the woman passed away but went back to Halbert.
" Take this, and keep it well. Even if your enemy is only one person, you should still be careful. Oh, one more.. have your father bring the item to the police station so that the thief who kidnapped you immediately goes into custody." clearly the woman— put a gun nailed to Halbert's suit and immediately went away.
Halbert froze in place, staring at the woman who was slowly disappearing as she walked away.
" He knew of the tragedy eighteen years ago?" lirihnya— quizzed himself.

" Dear, relax. The news is getting redam, I've taken care of it." Papa Harvey stroked the wife—'s back gently trying to calm her unrelenting crying woman.
" I have no problem with the news, Hiks.. Hiks.." interrupted by his sobs, Mama Allen voiced out.
