The Darkest Dream

Chapter 25

Sky seemed to be thinking about something, suddenly the door of his room was opened by someone without cue.

"Can you use your hand to knock on the door first? this is not a hotel room you can enter at your will!" Sarkas Sky made the look on Mora's face flushed with embarrassment.

"I just want to visit my husband's office? was wrong?" Mora said with a trembling voice.

Sky rubbed his face rough, he did not like to see the woman always crying. His empathy is not the slightest item, see the tears of his wife.

"What do you want? i'm busy!" sky to the point. As usual, he never served his wife if visiting his office.

"Let's have lunch. I want us to look like a couple in general. Be nice to me today, Sky. I'm having a birthday today" Mora said at her husband's mercy.

Sky stared at the wife without commenting. Then grab the algae intercom.

"Come in!" one word and able to make someone who heard her across the same bewildered.

Clamps

"Sorry, sir. What can I help you with?" meggy asked slightly bowed respectfully to Sky as well as his wife.

"You accompany my wife to lunch, buy her a birthday cake to her taste and desire. Your job is to be handled by Louis." That absolute order is quickly absorbed by Meggy's intelligent brain. But seeing the face does not like the mistress, making her guts a little at stake.

"Sky?" Mora slightly raised his voice, "can't you just appreciate me a little, huh?!" mora shouted with a furious rage.

Sky sighed heavily, then looked at his wife with an unreadable look.

"how much do you want me to appreciate, Mora?" mora's eyeballs glared perfectly at her husband's bad words. "Didn't my life pay off without leaving a single debt. Which price do you mean, right? your pride? do you have her?" Again painful sentences came out of Sky's sharp mouth. Mora's eyes were already teary, insults after insults kept coming out of the man's mouth before him. And stupidly he, still persisted in the wounds that had clearly injured him very deeply and severely.

"You're gonna regret this, Sky. You think continuing to hurt my heart, and putting me under pressure with this painful marriage, will make me leave you? you're wrong big time! The more you act rude to me, the harder I stay by your side. Remember, Sky! my daughter is the sole heir of the Belluwig family, so what you enjoy right now, is that of my daughter, Zora! Later you'll beg me, keep it!" Hardik Mora turned around and stared intently at Meggy, as if to say be careful of me.

But not to make a Meggy tremble, his life is full with all forms of threats. If one more threat increases, it doesn't matter to him.

Sky stared at his wife's departure with a mediocre feeling. No look of fear or worry was imprinted there. His face was still the same flat and cold.

"Can I go out, sir?" meggy asked, making Sky's attention diverted to her secretary.

"Get out! and yes, don't let anyone else enter my room after this, without my prior consent." Meggy just nodded then came out without saying anything more.

"You got what I asked for, Jeff?" The expressionless question flashed smoothly from a girl's tiny lips.

"This. You can see everything there." Jeff stared at the girl he had known for 17 years. Many questions remained unanswered in his mind, yet to ask? Jeff is still sane if his life is only one.

Jeff was silent with a lot of hope flashed in his head.

"Can I exchange all my information, with one question?" jeff said hesitantly. His gaze could not be separated from the expressionless face in front of him.

"One question, means one answer?" Lizzie looked at Jeff with her cold gaze.

Jeff could only sigh in resignation, a statement he would give with many other questions. But alas, this girl was much smarter than him.

"Yeah! if you don't mind, I still have a lot of other questions. And I'll save it for me to exchange for other information later." Jeff chuckled softly. Somehow the way to deal with the girl, all she can do is keep the secrecy about Cloey and her children. Then his life, peace.

"Say!"

"How do you know how many things are going to happen in the future, including what you've been through for the past 17 years?" Jeff paused his words then looked at Lizzie who was still unmoved "give this old man a little enlightenment.." Jeff chuckles back to neutralize his heartbeats. Somehow he felt, if he had asked the wrong question.

Lizzie chuckled, "you set me up, Jeff. You're asking two questions at once, in one long question sentence to outwit me." Jeff gasped, now he felt like he was acting silly and stupid. Toying with the real angel of death, right in front of him.

But for the sake of his authority as a former mafia, Jeff tried as much as possible to neutralize his facial expressions.

"I'm sorry, if my questions make you uncomfortable. You can answer one of my questions, and keep one of my questions for you to answer later. After I bring you new information. I hope it's fair enough, don't you?" Jeff offers negotiations to save himself who began to fall asleep.

Lizzie chuckles more and more crisp at Jeff's words, really he's not angry. Jeff's been helping her so much for a dozen years.

"I'll answer all your questions Jeff, no need to hold this tight on me." Lizzie stared at the waves that were fighting in front of them. With a painful look, Jeff could see clearly. If the girl is tough, she is keeping a lot of things in her mind.

"When I was one year old, my life began to change completely. You know how it feels to be a cute and adorable toddler, of course many people will stare anxiously at you? there's even someone scrambling to carry you. But not the pleasure of being flattered and praised, but the fear." Lizzie's blowing a rough breath.

"I have to look at the future of everyone who touches me, be it their happiness or the bad things they will experience. Those memories carried over into the dream realm. And it's really disturbing. The year passed, and I began to overcome it. Toddler Lizzie grows up to be a different child. By the time my mom asked me to move to California, I knew. There will be many things waiting for us there. Including meeting with my father." Lizzie looked at Jeff who was also staring at her full of curiosity. The girl smiled faintly, seeing the tense reaction on the face of the man who became her informant.

"Our quiet life began to change since we met my father. It's also a miracle I have. I'm even able to see the future without having to touch objects, and I know about you, even when I haven't met you. Every day before the Catalina incident, I had a vision of it. But my small age, made me try to avoid him so that all is well. Even when you were going back to town, I knew you wouldn't take Sofi. For that I provoked your thoughts about Aunt Lila. You need someone who can take care of her. I'm the one who set it up, I stole your borrowed satellite postel. Then contacting Luna, I gave her a slight threat, capitalizing on what I saw through her memory piece." Lizzie chuckles again, while Jeff is stunned to hear Lizzie's words. How a 4-year-old toddler, able to make a mature woman like Luna, submissive to him.

"Until Luna finally contacts you, saying that she's going to leave the secret basecamp because there's an urgent family matter. And Luna needs someone who can replace her there as long as she's gone. And Sofilah is your choice. I can't save everyone if Sofi doesn't leave then, her life will end at the end of the assassin's casing. And Mina, will not go with us because she does not want to leave the body of her nephew, then her fate. Bumm!! flat with the building." At the end of his sentence Lizzie wiped her tears, it had been a long time since she had never cried, she had even forgotten how it felt to be sad.

Jeff was stunned and tried to digest every sentence Lizzie, now he understood, how many burdens that girl bear alone without any place for various. And he was happy, being the first person to be chosen as a good listener of all the poignant stories of the girl before him.

"From now on, learn to be different in someone. You can't as long as you endure this miracle alone. I don't want to promise you anything, because I'm sure you know everything. But try to trust one or two people, who you're sure won't betray you later. I could be one of them, if you don't mind." Lizzie nodded her head slowly, I don't know what she meant.

"You're gonna be one of those people, Jeff. But I don't think I'll have the heart to do it. You have a family, just take good care of them. And yes," Lizzie stared straight at Jeff without blinking. "I hope it's the last time, we meet" the line made Jeff gasp.

"Why? is there something bad going to happen in the future? tell me, Lizzie! You've known me all these years, don't you trust me?" jeff's pleading gaze was not touched by Lizzie, the girl returned to wear her sunglasses, denim jacket and a hat and prepared to leave.

"Take care of yourself Jeff, we'll meet again. Even in a different situation, that's where I'm going to judge you. Do you deserve to be one of the people I can trust. I'm leaving, take my aunts and my cousins." Lizzie left without looking again. Jeff stared at Lizzie's small back with an erratic feeling. His mind floated somewhere, thinking about what Lizzie just said. Making her ketar ketir not koruan, she hopes in the future. When he was reunited with the girl, not as a traitor.
