Black Castle, England. Meeting Room.
They speak in English.
"As long as we haven't found your replacement, you can't leave the chair of the Board, Vesper. We all know you're tired, but it's not a decision you can make and it's immediately accepted by everyone. You're a senior and you know the rules. Do not damage the code that has been compiled since the 13 Demon Heads were formed," Martin and Vesper nodded in understanding.
"I know, I'm sorry. I ... just feel tired and it takes time to calm the mind," he replied lethargicly and everyone in the meeting nodded in understanding.
"Have you appointed someone to receive all our reports when our mission takes place?" asked Bojan and Vesper nodded slowly.
Kai stood up from the chair he was sitting in behind his wife. Everyone nodded in understanding.
"Then, Han. All this disaster because your son is the trigger. You, as Father, add to it by provoking Arjuna by asking him to marry Tessa. You don't think long term of this gibberish of yours" Amanda said from her stool.
"OKAY. I know it's all my fault. However, what I did was because I wanted to unite No Face with the 13 Demon Heads. Before all this was revealed, I thought Jonathan had been acknowledged by The Circle, but it turned out that I was wrong. I'm sorry, I'm too shallow in thinking, but I'll fix it" he replied firmly.
"How?" sahut Yusuke squinted his eyes.
Han took a long breath. "I'm guessing they left their wedding that I was supposed to schedule in the fall early next year."
"Don't. You're making things worse, Brother Han. I'm enough to be hated by our son, you don't. Keep marrying them. You have to keep your word," Vesper said quickly with an expressionless face.
"You agree? You blessed their marriage? Have you changed your mind?" tanya Han looked at Vesper in surprise.
"No. I never approved of it. It's just, let it. I want to see how far Arjuna can keep his marriage. He should know what it's like to build a household behind his desire for power" Vesper replied with a downcast look.
Everyone is silent. They could feel the sadness Vesper was feeling.
"alright. We had a deal. Kim Han Bong's. You're under the watchful eye of 13 Demon Heads under Silhouette Jordan's team. If you are proven to betray us and side with the enemy, your punishment is exile. Only fools make the same mistake. I'm sure you don't want to go back to your dark days, do you?" martin asked insinuating and Han took a deep breath while nodding softly.
"We've made a decision and it's all been passed in blood in the black book of the Meeting of the Council Meeting. We'll start moving after this meeting is dissolved" Amanda said, and everyone nodded.
That afternoon, after the meeting. Akbar's funeral was held in the backyard of Black Castle to pay his last respects to Mr. Robert and Wilson whose graves adjoin under the Oak tree.
There were also some gravestones from the predecessors and people in the ranks of the 13 Demon Heads who had perished.
Bojan presided over the funeral and all the mourners bowed silently with grief enveloping their hearts as one by one the people in their ranks were gone.
"Contact Arjuna. I wonder what his reaction will be like. Whether he knew it or not by this tragedy," Vesper pinta said at the funeral.
Han swiftly contacted his son from the cell phone in his grasp. Martin urged to speed up the call and Han was forced to do so.
"Yes, Dad. Tumben you called. What's up?" ask Arjuna from the phone. Everyone was listening.
"Did you know that Mr. Robert and Wilson were killed in the No Face attack?"
Arjuna was silent for a moment. The people around Han glanced at each other with cold faces. Vesper stood still with a downcast look in front of his oldest husband.
"Mm, I don't know" she answered nervously.
"Do you know where Sandara is now?" ask Han again.
"I .. don't know. Why are you asking me all this?" tanya Arjuna sounded agitated.
"You .. You've dared to lie to Dad. You know everything and didn't tell me this. Are you on No Face's side now? The group you chose was our enemy, Arjuna. If you still consider the 13 Demon Heads as your home, return immediately without Tessa. Leave what No Face promised you. Bring Sandara back with you," Han insisted and practically, Vesper's gaze lifted. Han did not heed the wife's words about marrying Arjuna to Tessa.
"can't. I can't go home now. There's something I need to finish, "he replied.
"You're not coming back right now, from this second on, you're expelled from the membership of the 13 Demon Heads. You were exiled and put on the traitor list. You are blinded by power, Arjuna," Han said.
"No! What are you doing, Brother Han?!" peeking Vesper instantly widened her eyes and held both of her husband's arms trembling. Han smiled.
"You let me down, Arjuna. Your mother and also the ranks of the 13 Demon Heads. You don't even obey me," Han replied with a sharp eye. Vesper shed tears and slowly collapsed in front of her husband.
Kai immediately held onto Vesper who was silencing his mouth tightly restraining sobs. Kai hugged his wife tightly and stared at Han sharply from where he was crouching.
"So so. Alright. I-i understand. I thank you for everything you gave me and everyone around me. I ... have said it. I can't go back now. If we live long, we'll see each other again, Dad. Say hello to my mom. Say .. I hate him."
"Goddessa!"
CLAMPS! TUT ... TUT ... TUT.
Vesper crying. Everyone's faces tensed up instantly. Han's breathing roared, he looked so angry at his son's decision.
"You're crazy, Han! If Arjuna is removed from the Council seat, he can attack us! The only reason we're defending it is to make No Face vanish through Arjuna!" said Kai loudly gripping the strong suit on his chest.
"I know, Kai. I understand that," he replied.
"Then why?" asked Kai until his face was red holding back anger.
"I'll stop him, Kai. He's my son. He's my responsibility. And I promise to bring Sandara home. Please, take care of Lily. Make sure that when I get home, he stays home to welcome me" pintanys sadly.
Kai let go of his grip. Everyone fell silent as Han crouched down and looked at the wife's face that looked so sad.
"I'm sorry, Lily. I ruined everything. My selfishness and ambition, took Arjuna away from our side. I'm sorry if Arjuna says anything bad about you, it's all my fault. His hatred comes from me. But I make sure, Arjuna, he loves you, "he said.
Vesper cried and hugged Han tightly. Han hugged his wife, who let out all the sadness he felt in her tears. Han also shed tears of regret.
The terrible things that befell Vesper's family were more sad than the deaths of Wilson and Robert at the funeral that afternoon.
Vesper looked pale and lethargic after hearing Arjuna's words from a phone call. Vesper lay in his room with his eyes closed with Jonathan and Lysa at his side.
They speak mixed Indonesian.
"Mah ... Nathan knows that Mama's not sleeping. Uda, Mah, don't be sad anymore. Nathan was crying when Mama was like this," Jonathan said looking at his mother's face that was back in tears even though her eyes were closed.
Jonathan hugged his mother tightly with the same tears. Lysa turned her face away while wiping away the tears that were dripping on her beautiful face.
Lysa moved and picked up a book on her mother's bedroom shelf. Lysa sat down next to the bed and was seen trying to calm down.
Jonathan glanced at Lysa as his older sister recited the holy Quran to her mother.
Jonathan slowly stopped his crying. He wiped his tears following the mother. Jonathan smiled when he saw Vesper no longer crying and slowly his breathing calmed down.
Jonathan covered his mother's body and stroked her head gently. Slowly, Vesper's tense body weakened.
Lysa glanced as she felt the hand of the Mother in her grasp start to sluggish. Jonathan saw that his mother was falling asleep.
Lysa continued to recite the verses with her sweet voice. Apparently, Jonathan was lulled and instead accompanied Vesper to sleep next to him.
"Rest, Mah. I and others will accompany you" said Lysa Lirih, closing her book and putting Vesper's hand in the blanket. "I love you, Mah," he continued with a smile and kissed Vesper's forehead gently.
