Find Me in 1000 Years

Mother's Messages

"Mmhmd. Didn't the warriors who came with you yesterday, help you again? They've been asked to come back this afternoon to start moving, waiting for instructions from you," the Minister said that he wanted to pour tea into his cup but then Ken grabbed his teapot and poured tea for the Minister.

"But I also need bodyguards to signal that this is official from the Kingdom."

"All right, I'll give it to you, whatever bodyguard you need. How much do you need?"

The short-haired man also poured into his cup. "Mmh, I wonder, the murder case has occurred in any area?"

Then it all flows. They are busy with discussions until they give birth to a word of agreement.

"Hah .. You're young and your thinking is brilliant plus your experience makes you skilled. You will definitely become a great leader in the future" the man said as he tidied his beard. "Do you not want to work for the King?"

"For the time being, I want to go back to the forest to continue learning martial arts that I have not yet completed, after solving the dlakula plague problem here. I haven't thought of doing anything else."

"But I'm willing to take you in if you're interested in serving the King."

"I'm just an ordinary person. My work has not yet begun. Maybe after work, I'm not the person you expect me to be" Ken said. He drank the warm tea from the small cup he held.

The minister laughed loosely while tidying up his beard. "Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right. We have to solve this problem first, before we talk about anything else."

Ejiro goes into Ken's room. He took the man's clothes at the behest of his teacher before they left for the Defense Minister's house. Unknowingly, Cia followed him.

The door was closed when the man in the codet put Ken's clothes into a wrapping cloth. He looks. "Cia, what's the need? Want to send a message to Ken?" he said lightly as if nothing had ever happened between them.

Cia still stood scowling at the door. "What would happen if I were pregnant because of you?" It seems the girl wants to cry.

The man paused for a moment and continued his duties without looking. "So what do you want?"

"You really are a man with no feelings! You can do that when I'm fragile." Cia herself did not know what was going on with her at that time, because suddenly she complied with the man's request and it happened that hot night.

Ejiro again stopped tidying up Ken's belongings and began to seriously stare at the girl. He actually wants to laugh. "If the one who fucked you that night wasn't me, but Ken, what would you do now? Asking for responsibility? Heh! That me? You want to be with me?"

"But you've ruined me. You know I like Ken, why are you doing that? You're mean!" The girl started crying.

Ejiro had finished putting Ken's clothes in the cloth and tied it up. He then brought the cloth and stepped towards the door where the girl was standing. "Listen yes, I'm not a bad person. You were the first to come to my room and turn yourself over to me. If you want me to take responsibility, I'm ready. You want me to marry you I'll do it too but don't tell me I'm evil because you're the bad one for putting sleeping pills in that apple last night. Aye, right?"

Instead of answering, Cia's cries became more and more. His bully sense was discovered and he could not bring the man down again.

Ejiro sighed softly. He began to talk softly to the girl. "Cia, I'll be back. Think about this carefully. If you want me to take responsibility, I'll be ready to marry you. I'm not a bad guy, Cia. I'm not as bad as you think." After that, the man left her.

And that girl, she was still crying sobbing there.

While waiting for the volunteers to come to help, Ken returned to the room. At that time he had briefly seen the Minister of Defense's child's room and was still quiet. Then he went into the room.

Now what do I want? Then he sat down on the edge of the bed. Just thinking so, suddenly the door of the room opened. A woman came in with a tray full of tea pots and cups.

"Bao Ki, I don't want to drink yet." But then he was shocked when the woman raised her face. "Mother?"

"Hello, my son." The woman put the tray on the table.

"How did you get past them?" Netra Ken perfectly rounded.

"Oh, usual. Stopping time."

"really?" The man came out and saw that everyone had become a statue. "Mom, you're right."

"Come, here accompany me to tea. I brought this cake for you."

The woman placed the cake on the plate in front of the man. Also pour green tea in a small cup. They enjoyed the cake while chatting together.

"How are you, Mother?" ask Ken with a bright face.

"Good."

"Mmh, you never see Dad again?"

Suddenly the question made it hard for me to get started. "Mom forgot."

Ken noticed a change in mom's face that looked different. "Mom didn't argue with Dad, did she?" The man bribed the cake.

"Oh, no. Just ... Maybe Mom's selfish. I'm just thinking about you now." Slowly, Mom cut the cake on her plate.

"Mother, look at Daddy. Maybe he's lonely. I don't have a reason anymore actually, separate from Dad. Dad might not dare to force it but he must be lonely and miss Mom."

"Why do you suddenly think about Dad?"

Ken finished the chew. "I want to see Dad, but I can't. At least if you can see, Mom. I wasn't there to accompany her."

"Yes already." It looks like the woman's eyes are glazed.

"Mom misses Dad too, doesn't she?" The man tried to guess the language of his mother's tears.

"Mk." The woman nodded slowly.

"Forget me for a second, meet Dad, Mom."

"Yes." Yeah."

They went back to eating the cake.

"By the way, where's Mira, Mom?"

"Oh, that's what I want to say."

"What, Mom?" Ken began to notice the woman talking.

"This dracula case. Now you have to slash his head."

"What's? You mean I have to separate the heads and bodies of people who have dracula venom?" The man's net was rounded, upon hearing the woman's statement. "Mother, why should I do such a heinous thing. Killing alone is horrible enough for me, but mom asked me to slash it. How's the family or kids seeing it, ma'am?"

"This is to avoid anyone sucking your blood or the blood of the dracula. That dracula has drunk your blood so he can be immortal. So do those who accidentally drink the blood of the dracula or your blood, if you are injured, and the only way to kill them is to separate the body from the head. They can heal from any wound if the blood is everlasting."

"Is that true, Mother?"

"That's what Mom's thinking, but actually, I don't know either."

"Oh, what about the one I killed in the woods?"

"It was done by Mira and Gojo."

"Thank God."

Both of them took a slow breath and lowered their heads.
