Love Story: Gabrielle and Eleanor

Crying In Silence

The news of the death of the mega mode makes things very uproar. Before this they had indeed heard the news that the beautiful woman surnamed Wu was in a coma. But they did not expect that today would be his last day in the world. This news first came when Bryan Young, almost had a heart attack when he got a call from relatives who reported that Mrs Clarissa Wu had died. Also with his son-in-law, Morigan Junio, who left the meeting room immediately upon hearing the news. Because these two people are high-ranking people in the business world, of course their unusual attitude invites a lot of attention, especially for news hunters. Until finally Grand Master Greg Ma as besan of Bryan Young made a brief statement that it is true that Mrs Clarissa has returned to the lap of God and will be buried immediately today as well.

On a sunny afternoon, it looks like a motorcade of luxury cars that are so crowded. The motorcade moved slowly behind the ambulance carrying Ms Clarissa Wu's body. Seen on the right and left side of the road lined with flowers of condolence greeting from people who know close all family members. They knew enough how to put face to face in front of the Bryan family because he was a besan of the Ma family. Of course, indeed who would not want to get sympathetic from this famous family?

"Darling, you're okay, right?" gabrielle asked anxiously to see Elea who was just silent while hugging a photo of Grandma Clarissa. They were sitting in the car driven by Nun. Actually, Elea wanted to get into the ambulance with Yura's mother and Bryan's father, but it was not allowed because she was pregnant. So it was with a heavy heart that Gabrielle persuaded her to get into this car. And just so you know, ever since Elea found out that Grandma Clarissa had died, she had shed no tears at all. Elea was just silent as she continued to look at the grandmother's face that had been stiffened. This of course made everyone anxious, even more so Gabrielle. She fears Elea will be depressed due to the loss of Grandma Clarissa.

"Is it still okay when I lose my family, brother?" sahut Elea asked back. "It's very painful as long as Iel knows. Why Brother. Why in this world should there be such a thing as farewell? And why does it feel so bad? Can't God present a sense of beauty when this death comes?"

"Darling, this is all fate. You can't say that. Not good," said Gabrielle then pulled Elea's body into her arms. While stroking her hair, Gabrielle tries to comfort Elea by talking about their children. "Oh yeah, baby. Do you have any reason to name our daughter Florence?"

Elea looked up at Gabrielle's face then nodded. A faint smile appeared on his lips. Gabrielle, who saw the smile, was powerless not to smile. He felt a little relieved.

"Florence has different meanings, Sister. But the Florence I want means a flower that blooms beautifully. And characteristically the name Florence means loving and gentle. Our daughter-in-law will be everyone's favorite flower" replied Elea. For a moment she forgot her sadness once Gabrielle alluded to the meaning of their daughter's name.

"Hmmm, so this is why you like to collect flowers from the street? Florence, flowers, loving girl. You're really very smart about picking a name for our daughter, baby. I'm proud of you" said Gabrielle, glad to know the meaning of the name that will be given to their daughter later.

"Flow will be surrounded by her seven brothers. She will be confined by their possessiveness" Elea said with a small smile.

"Seven?"

Gabrielle.

"Yes, seven. Bern, Karl, Cio, his sons Kak Jackson, Kak Levi, Kak Lusi, and his son Kak Cira. They will all have their first male child, Sister Iel. And our daughter is very lucky because I've got the idea that Flow will be Kak Levi's son-in-law and Dr. Reinhard. We're going to talk to the actor."

Nun who was driving the car seemed to smile faintly when she heard how great the madam was able to penetrate the future of her own daughter. Although Nun was a mutant, but she could sense that what the madam had was something quite extraordinary. She's amazed.

"I don't think there's any harm in messing with that actor, honey. But by the way, have you seen what profession Flow will choose?" ask Gabrielle.

Elea shakes. His eyes were then fixed on the row of condolence flowers neatly lined up near the entrance of the cemetery. Realizing that the motorcade had reached the final resting place of Grandma Clarissa, Elea was no longer able to hold back the tears that had been in her hands. He wept in silence, imagining that soon his mother and grandmother would be united in a place of God.

The atmosphere in the car turned so sad that Elea finally let go of her crying voice. And Gabrielle always hugged Elea, letting her chest become a container to hold her tears flowing so fast.

"Honey, everything that is created will one day return to its creator. Our lives and lives are just entrusted, not least Grandma and Mama Sandara. Sincerely yes. You must let Grandma go so that her path to heaven is not dark. Believe me, God must have prepared a beautiful scenario to replace your grief. God is fair, you believe that, don't you?" gabrielle said softly.

"I believe that, Brother Iel. But now I want so much to cry, my heart is sad. Of all the memories of Mama only Grandma Clarissa remained. But now God has taken it too. My heart is broken, Brother Iel. I'm too sick now" said Elea with tears in her eyes.

"I knew. Yeah, well, blow all your grief today. My shoulders will always be there to be where you lean" Gabrielle said. "But after this you have to promise me that today will be your last day of sad crying. Promise me that in the future you will only cry because you are happy. I love you so much, Elea. I'm sick to see you like this."

Elea immediately buried her face into Gabrielle's chest, she let her tears and so her sobs muffled there. Elea and Gabrielle's car stopped. Elea's body trembled, too scared for her to see Grandma Clarissa's tomb that would be next to Mama Sandara's and Grandpa Karim's tomb. This is all like a dream in which three people involved with a painful past will be in one adjacent bed. Horrifically.

"Darling, we've arrived. You want to come down no?" gabrielle asked softly. He knew his wife was very fragile now.

"Did Brother Cira come here, brother?"

"He was still unconscious from his stupor. Most likely Ares and Cira will not come to the funeral" Gabrielle replied. "Why? Do you want them here?"

Elea shakes.

"Please don't leave my side, Sister Iel. I can't if there's no Brother."

"No, baby. Don't be afraid, I'll stay by your side forever" said Gabrielle, then slowly pulled Elea's face to face. "Honey, it's time for Grandma to meet her loved ones. I know you're sad, but it's not good that we delay time. Poor Grandma, he had waited a very long time to meet with Mama and Grandpa Karim. We're out, right?"

For a while Elea was silent without responding to her husband's persuasion. But after that he nodded. Gabrielle, who saw this, asked Nun to prepare a black umbrella for her and Elea. After that he guided Elea out of the car and then hugged her while walking towards the tomb where Grandma Clarissa would be buried.

You must be strong, honey. I'm sure it is.
