3 Years later
Kira dragged her suitcase towards the white alphard car that was parked in front of the dormitory gate. Today she has completed her education at a girls' school for 3 years. He never came home and never found out about his family. And now the day of taking off the longing has come.
Kira believes that the driver of the white alphard is Noah. Because a few minutes ago he received a call from the man over the dorm phone. With a happy smile, Kira waved at the car. The car glass looks open showing the handsome face of Noah who is getting older.
"Sister Noah." Greet Kira after she gets to the side of the car.
Noah gets out of the car and immediately puts Kira's suitcase in the trunk. After that Noah looked at the girl in front of him who now looked mature and certainly very sweet. Kira grows up well, even the girl looks very very charming.
"This hostel takes very good care of you. You look grown up. How are you doing after 3 years of isolation?" Noah chuckled for a moment.
Kira bit her lower lip while throwing a small punch at the man's arm. "Well, I learned a lot about living in this dorm. And the news after 3 years of isolation is very good. It's just that I miss my family so much."
"Sure you'll miss. That's why I decided to pick you up today. Let's go home." Take Noah who instantly changes the look on his face.
Kira noticed that. But because Noah had moved from his presence into the car. Kira finally decided to come in. Before actually entering, the girl turned to stare at the dormitory building that was very meritorious to her for these 3 years. Then Kira raised her hand and saluted.
'For three precious years, thank you. Because of you I can be like this.'
Kira took a breath and turned around and left the gate. The girl darted into the alphard.
...
8 Hours later they reached the border of the city. Kira further developed her smile in the midst of fatigue due to the distance of the journey they took.
Noah drove the white alphard to the left after the first crossroad of the border. Kira frowned confused.
"For what do we cross the 'Last Conjecture'?" He looked at Noah.
The final contest is the name of the famous cemetery in the city.
"To tell you one important thing." Answer Noah bitterly.
Kira frowned because she was enveloped in confusion. The girl tried to guess what Noah was going to say and what it had to do with the graveyard they were about to cross.
"Well what? Is this something sad?" Ask Kira.
"Better than just pathetic. It hurts more!" Noah replied firmly but with a slow intonation.
Slowly Kira swallowed her saliva. What hurts more than losing? But if this is bad news, who has gone home? It can't be his father or his mother, they'll be fine. It can't be Naura. Then who?
The car stopped in front of the 'Last Complaint' funeral gate.' Soon Noah removed his seatbelt and drove Kira into the cemetery.
Once in the atmosphere haru attacked Noah. Remembering the events of 3 years ago made him instantly weak. The sudden incident took away the figure who had just become his family. Just as he felt the presence of a younger brother, God took it.
Noah clasped Kira's hand and said, "You'll know why we're here. Keep holding my hand, I don't want you to be fragile."
Kira nodded slowly, though she did not fully understand the situation. Finally they continued to walk around some old tombs that had been given diting around it.
A few steps later they stopped at a tomb with black-toothed walls. His head was already worn and overgrown with weeds. Kira squatting. A strange feeling ran through his chest. Like going back to three years ago when he was just a few days adapting in the dormitory.
The girl looked at his headstone. Then hesitantly he turned his head towards Noah who was still faithfully standing. Noah gestured for the girl to reveal the weeds that covered the name of the owner of the navel.
Kira refocused her eyes on the gravestone. Then slowly reveal the weeds from the left. His heart began to beat rapidly when the first letter had appeared. It was clearly a figure that was stifled in his head. But he wanted to see very well the completeness of the name listed. With a heart that felt unsettled because Kira continued to reveal the weeds. And finally he could clearly read the name of the owner of this tomb. His heart almost stopped beating.
"Nonsense." Mumbles weakly.
It was like a bullet was raining down on his chest and into his back. Kira tried to breathe with difficulty. What he saw was something he could not believe. The gravestone was inscribed with the name of the person he loved 3 years ago. Even today he still loves Bara. Once again Kira stared in disbelief at the writing. Tears began to trickle through the corner of his eyes.
Rast in Peace's
Maesa Bara
July 21, 2017
The sound of sobbing the girl filled the silence of the burial area. Bara passed away 3 years ago when she entered boarding school. The day he dropped his lunch tray.
The girl sat on the ground, then looked down to shed tears on the Bara tombstone. Noah crouched down and hugged the girl. Kira needs strength.
"Patience, he's calmed down." Noah Said.
"Sir Bara has promised me that we will wait so that we can love each other like we used to. But.. but it turns out, he left me first." Said Kira stammered while continuing to cry bitterly.
"There are times when a person must let go of the figure he loves. Maybe God loved Bara until He took her first." Noah patted the girl's back slowly.
"Is this way? He didn't even say goodbye to me." Isak Kira's.
"Well or not, we can't prevent. Death is absolute destiny." Answer Noah.
Kira cries in Noah's arms. One more painful thing in his life after his separation from Bara. Now they are truly separated, separated in the fullest sense. Separate nature and nature. Kira took her hug off Noah. The girl then tightly hugged Bara's headstone.
"I'm right. You are an irresponsible man. I promise not to leave. But in fact, today I just found out that you have been lying quietly in your last contest for 3 years. Now I understand why you always appear in my dreams at night. You want to say this, I'm too stupid to understand the meaning. I lost all my love. I'm heartbroken. But honestly you are in love and my most beautiful heartbreak. I'm happy to have loved and been loved by someone like you." Kira wiped her tears.
"Don't you ever think how sick it is to be left for dead? You have given me so many memories. This lip is one of his witnesses. You enjoy the sweet taste on these lips. I didn't expect that last kiss to be our last. What do you think, why give up on life?" Kira then stopped hugging the headstone.
The girl stared at the writing of Bara's name and touched it with a subtle touch of her clasped fingers. "I adore you." Then kiss the headstone long enough.
Noah who saw it was staring. There was jealousy lingering in the recesses of his heart.
'What is your love for her?'
"Goodbye for good. I love you as deep as the ocean. I hate you for betraying promises. Even if I refuse to accept all of this, I still cannot change my destiny. Relax there, I will always pray for you." Said Kira one last time.
He rose up with the rest of his strength that had been consumed by tears. Then he held Noah's hand. With an unreadable look Noah stared at the girl's fingers tucked between her fingers.
"Let's go home." Take Kira with her eyes. The man nodded and immediately set foot leaving Bara's grave.
Noah held Kira's hand with arat. Like a success. Noah seems to have made a handover with Bara over Kira's possession. Because he loves Kira too.
....
After his greatest sorrow passed
Today is the most awaited day for all family members. Because today Naura has become the wife of a single successor of Kitora's Kingdom.
The girl who is now at the age of 22 knows it looks happy with Ren on the beautiful lap. In the end Naura chose to drop her heart on Ren. Ren was the best man of his father's choice.
Undeniably. After getting to know the man Naura found a lot of new things. That's why he decided to get married. Became the son-in-law of a wealthy businessman, and became the successor of his father's company. Naura was certainly happy many times over. He and Ren had planned to make the Amakusa Foundation and Kitora's Kingdom one. They will unite the two companies to become the largest business empire in the city.
On the other hand, Kira stands side by side with Noah. After returning from Bara's funeral, Kira was seen still gripping her sadness. From the look in his eyes Noah could feel that.
"What do you think, if I love you, will you love me back?" Noah's voice was without a stale base.
The man was already impatient from three years ago wanting to express his feelings. Today is the right time, he says.
"Not going to." Answer Kira on an occasion.
"Why?" Noah frowned.
"Because Brother Noah is an old man!" The girl replied with a look of disdain.
"What's? 26 Years, I'm not as old as you think." Noah shrugged his shoulders.
"I don't want to." Reply Kira while leaving the man.
Noah follows Kira's steps. He could not accept if Kira refused without thinking first.
"Please consider. Don't you feel attracted to me even after everything we've been through. Don't you feel the vibration? Come on, I love you." Noah continued to follow the girl.
Kira didn't say. Until their position has been in a quiet place outside the location of Naura's wedding event. Noah could not stand it anymore, the man pulled Kira until his steps stopped.
"What?" Tanya Kira relaxed.
"Please girl, I'm very love you." Noah was helpless.
"True?" Kira raised her eyebrows.
"True. I love you so much, little boy!" Noah said.
Kira laughed with a pair of narrowed eyes. "I thought so."
"What?" Noah frowned.
"I expected it from the beginning." Kira was still laughing.
"So?" Noah's waiting.
"Yep, there's no other choice." Kira confronts Noah as if ready for a hug.
"Really?" Noah confirmed. Kira nodded. "Oh babe, please give me a hug."
Kira stretched out her hand. A second later the tube entered Noah's warm embrace. Kira drowned in the man's burly body.
"Are you satisfied now?" Ask Kira.
"Very satisfied." Noah replied without letting go of his embrace.
"Then?"
"Will u merry me?"
"hum. I will."
Noah cheered triumphantly. The man, so happy he switched to lift the tiny tubub Kira into the air and twist his body. Kira squealed, the girl grumbled.
"Sister Noah, my head is dizzy. Hentikaaaan!"
"No, 'cause I love you Kirara."
Amidst the happiness the two secretly Zara and Ran peeked. How difficult it is for the twilight couple to hold a laugh, in the end it also broke due to the behavior of Kira and Noah.
"Look at them, quickly sign their wedding proposal. I can't wait to get flooded with grandchildren." Chirps Zara.
Ran chuckled, "I'll take care of the madam soon. Don't forget, we'll soon be entering a new chapter. Have grandchildren and wrinkles swallowed up in time. Finally, we've been married for 23 years."
"You're right. We'll snag soon. I hope we stay fine until my head is covered in gray." Zara looked at the man who was her husband.
"Until one of us meets death, I hope we're always okay." Now Ran stroked Zara's cheek.
"The story starts with us. I never imagined I'd be in a position like this. Aging with you with our two queens. Watching Naura get married and meet Kira with her future life partner. Thank you for 23 precious years. I still love you like 23 years ago." Zara.
Ran began to tear up hearing the confession. "I never thought I could love you for 23 years. This is God's destiny and we should be grateful for it. I am so grateful to have been rewarded with a queen as beautiful and precious as you and two empresses who became the light of our hearts. I also thank you for always being patient with my annoying nature for these 23 years." Ran hugged Zara.
"If I die before you, please forget me and all the pain I've left for you." Zara said in the middle of their arms.
"And if I die first, please open your heart. Don't wail me. Keep living in happiness. Because there's or isn't me, you have to stay happy." Reply Ran.
In the end, all the stories that started from their meeting, again converged on their story as well. Because their encounters in the past created a rather long story.
Ran is reunited with Zara to carve out the story of Naura destined for Ren as well as the story of Kira who was left dead by Bara then united with Noah. As well as uncovering the mystery of Bara's identity which is the highlight in the Saga and Tahira household.
Now all these stories go their own way. They will certainly create a more meaningful story in their respective households.
Although in the end Bara who must first face the fate of his death. His story will leave no lament in the hearts of Tahira and Saga as Bara's death is the reason they are back together.
Tahira and Saga return to make sacred promises. Well their story is quite sad but all that is destiny. Issaura chose to remain Saga's wife because it turned out Tahira received her presence well.
The sense of loss will only exist, if you ever have it.
