Chapter 27

“No Sera, no fingerprints and evidence were left behind. All of this is pure accident. All right, let's go home. Sam, Jimmy and Rosie are waiting for us in the car."

Uncle Diego left his place, he looked very sad but he tried to be strong, She knew that Uncle Diego's relationship with his father was very good, they were very close brothers, now that father is gone he must be confused about what to do because all this time he has always depended on his older brother. that boy.

Sera looked at the man's back with a sad look, Diego's uncle didn't want to tell him everything, there must be something that if he said it would be difficult for everyone to accept.

When he arrived at the house, the atmosphere was quiet and the smell of grief still enveloped the house. Mother is still locked in her room, she doesn't want to speak a word, somehow she can be this weak without a father, even her children are much stronger to accept this painful reality.

In Grandma's kitchen preparing dinner alone, Grandma was no longer crying but the sadness was still on her face.

"Let's have dinner first." Said the 95-year-old woman in a low voice, even though her pace was slow but she was still able to do housework.

Before Elen and her family came, Grandma lived alone with Uncle Diego, Grandma's youngest child. He used to live and work in France with his wife and children, but after his grandfather died soon after he divorced his wife, Diego's uncle returned to England while the children lived with his ex-wife who resided in France.

Grandma's eldest child died of lung cancer 15 years ago at the age of 57 years, if he was still alive he would be 72 years old now. Grandma is already living with her husband and 2 children, for sure at this time she feels very sad and is getting worse.

Elen didn't want to think anymore, she decided to go to her room and went to sleep. Forgetting all this for a moment, he knew sleep wouldn't solve his problems but at least it could ease the sadness in his heart a little.

"Brother..." called Rosie who was standing behind Elen's door.

"What is it ?"

"I want to sleep with brother, I don't want to sleep alone." He answered with watery eyes.

"But you can sleep with mother right? you want to be alone Rosie."

"Mom doesn't want to open the door to her room, Mom doesn't let me in..." she answered with tears already flowing, Rosie hugged her beloved teddy bear.

"Okay let's go..." said Elen softly.

Rosie lay beside her sister and pulled the blanket over her.

"Dad..." she said quietly, she started to sob when she remembered her father who was gone.

"Don't call me again Rosie, daddy's gone." Elen cursed annoyed, she turned her back to her sister, she didn't want to see Rosie cry.

"I miss daddy, why did you go...?"

"God has picked him up, so we must be sincere." Elen replied trying to give understanding to her sister.

“I miss dad… I want to hug dad…”

Shut up Rosie, I want to sleep. Stop crying." snapped Elen getting annoyed.

"Father ... father ..." Rosie shouted getting louder.

“Rosie…” Elen snapped, her face red with anger, Rosie immediately fell silent and stopped crying.

There was no more crying sound from the little girl, she closed her eyes while sobbing. Elen looked at her sister with annoyance, actually she felt sorry but her mind and soul were bad at this time making her emotions unstable.

Elen closed her eyes, just as she had expected. When asleep, Elen's subconscious moves to a world that will continue to bind her. Elen returns to the ship, When she wakes up in the real world it means she will wake up in her dreamland, she seems to live in a different dimension.

"Hey Elen..." Charly greeted, her face right in front of Elen's. He always gave a sweet smile, but that smile made Elen feel scared. He knew who the real Charly was, he wouldn't let Elen go just like that once he caught her.

Elen froze, she stared at Charly's face which was looking at her with a cold and deadly gaze. Elen remained silent, she tried not to do anything.

"What do you want ?" asked Elen flatly, her eyes unmoving.

"What do you mean ?"

"What more do you want? what else do you want from me…” shouted Elen, she held tightness in her chest.

"What's wrong Ellen? why do you look sad?” asked Charly gently, she touched Elen's face with her very cold hand.

“A… dad… my dad died Charly…” Elen answered while sobbing.

"What ? your father ? why?" Charly asked as if she didn't know anything.

"He was electrocuted, no one saw him at the time." Elen replied, her tears starting to fall, she seemed to complain to the male figure in front of her.

"I'm sorry for Elen, but didn't you see it at that time too?"

“No, i…I…” Elen's words stopped for a moment, she remembered something, her dream last night.

“I think you know something, but yeah… there's no way you did it, how could you kill your father, right Elen?” said Charly with a smirk.

His words just now were like a heavy blow to Elen's mind at this moment, why didn't she notice it? in a dream he kills people the same way his father died. Broken power lines, water soaking the floor and electric shocks, it's all the same.

“N…no way I… no way I did it! Impossible!"
