JiHan (Promise and Betrayal)

Tombs

Alice was ready with her casual clothes. The girl sat at the dinner table. Breakfast is available on the table.

"For Al.." Sapa Roy who had just entered the dining room and immediately shifted his seat beside Alice.

"For Roy." Alice replied, "I've ordered some breakfast.. Eat Brother." Alice continued while drinking her milk again.

"Thanks Al's.. Where are the others?" Asked Roy and looked around as yet neither Juna nor Galih were seen. The man chose to take the cream soup that was on the table. Alice replied, Galih and Juna have already appeared in the dining room.

"Morning.. Looking for me?" Juna asked and immediately took a seat beside Alice and Galih sliding the chair beside Juna.

"I've just finished preparing for our departure." Continue Juna and then take a piece of sandwich and put it in his mouth.

"Ohh I deserve not to see you." Said Roy and nodded in understanding.

"We're going straight to the BBC company right Al?" Tanya Juna made sure to return to today's schedule. Galih only listened to the conversation while drinking his coffee.

"Emhh, may I go for a moment to the graves of my parents? Then we go to the BBC?" Pinta Alice and put the finished milk glass in her drink.

"Of course." Roy answered Alice's question quickly.

Juna slightly frowned. Previously Juna had told his men to follow their car to the BBC just to do their job looking for evidence at the company. But if so, it should not be changed again the arrangement.

"Let the other boys go straight to the BBC and start their work as early as possible. Let's just keep Alice at the funeral and just go to the BBC." Obviously Roy is fast. As fast as lightning, Juna's previously confused face immediately returned to how it was and nodded in understanding.

"I'm sorry I've been troubling you." Alice said a little reluctantly to the three men in front of her.

"We do it of our own volition Al.. We are family anyway.. No one bothers anyone." Say Galih and go back to sipping coffee relaxed.

"Truely it/Agrees." Juna and Roy answered at the same time.

"All right lest we be late, we hurry now." Galih put down his coffee glass and got the approval of the three people.

Alice, Roy, Galih and Juna who had finished their breakfast got up from their seats and rushed out of their penthouse. As they were about to get into the car, they ran into Doctor Imanuel who had just got out of his car and was about to go to see Alice.

"Ahh what a coincidence, are we going straight to the BBC?" Imanuel asked and approached the car the four men were going to ride in.

"Sorry uncle, I'll go to the cemetery first and then to the office." Alice explained her purpose.

"Ahh.. I'll accompany you." Immanuel said and chose to get into the car with Alice and Roy who were sitting in the middle seat. While Galih is sitting behind the wheel and Juna is sitting next to him.

Their journey to the cemetery is 45 minutes from their hotel. Actually, the location of the cemetery is located not far from the Baskoro family mansion which is behind the mansion. There is a beautiful hill and there are several tomb centers with nisa on it.

"Adels.. This is your Grandpa Buyut's grave Lucifer and next to it is your Grandma's Grandma's Grandma Grace." Immanuel told Alice both tombs that looked old but well preserved.

"This Adel is the tomb of your Grandpa and Grandma" Immanuel said and told Alice the other two tombs, the two tombs not much look different like the two previous meals.

Alice stood in front of the tomb and paid tribute and prayers to the two dead, as did Immanuel, Galih, Juna and Roy.

After a few moments of remembrance and prayer, Alice went to the other two tombs that looked like they were new to Alice.

Both of Alice's eyes immediately dewy and began to soothe the tears in both of her eyes as she approached the two tombs.

"Adels.. This is the tomb of your parents.. Frans and Amelia." Immanuel said and stood in front of the tomb.

Alice, Immanuel, Galih, Juna and Roy pay their respects and then pray. After they finished, they immediately left slowly leaving Alice who was still standing looking down.

The tears that had already dripped down both of his cheeks accompanied the grief in his heart. Slowly the girl advanced towards the navel with the name headstone inscribed on the dark-black ceramic with gold ink scratches on it.

"I'm sorry for Adel's negligence, Ayahh.. Hicks." His words were stammered along with heartbreaking cries.

"I'm sorry Adel just visited.. Forgive Adel for fighting for your rights.. Sorry Adel also can not hate people who have hit our car.. I'm sorry for making Mom and Dad worried all this time.. Huaaa.." Spills and spills of grievances and tear spills flooded over the dark black tomb.

The little girl roared while clenching her fingers and hugging the tombstone above her mother's belly button holding the tightness that was inside her chest.

Galih, Juna and Roy who were not far from there looked at Alice's bent back as it shook violently. Alice's cries and wails slashed their hearts, the three of them felt the rush of tears that wanted to spill to accompany Alice. But they held her back and tried to turn her face away from Alice's body and exhaled her rough breaths of tightness in their chest.

For a few moments they gave Alice time to pour out her whole heart. When he saw that the girl was much calmer with the position still hugging the headstone, Roy took the initiative to approach Alice slowly and rubbed the girl's shoulder.

"We can visit next time, right now you have to be strong and finish what we started." Roy said soothingly as he continued to rub Alice's shoulder.

Gradually Alice let go of her embrace to her mother's headstone and began to sit up straight. The girl quickly cleaned the tears on both of her cheeks and began to calm down.

"Mom, Dad.. Alice will be right back and get the mastermind behind all this back." Alice said stiffly and and began to stand up from her seat.

Roy who was beside Alice strengthened the girl by grabbing Alice's body and rubbing the girl's shoulder. Galih and Juna also approached Alice and rubbed the girl's back and head.

"Tante and Uncle don't have to worry, we'll always be next to Alice and protect her." Roy said in front of both centers of Alice's parents and was nodded by Juna and Galih together.

Alice looked to her left and right, the girl was moved towards the three men who had always protected her.

"We say goodbye, Mother.." Alice said and then left the two tombs.

Unbeknownst to them, someone noticed their interaction from behind an evergreen tree not far from the cemetery.

Seriate....
