Luccane
Chapter 50: The Farewell

"No way, Luccane. I won't forget you forever. Even if we can't be together, that doesn't mean we don't have the right to love each other, does it?" I said a stern word, making Luccane a little jolted in shock.

"really? Are you sure?" asked Luccane to make sure.

I know I can easily forget the memories I've been through with Luccane so far in just an instant with the help of magic from Luccane but I still don't want to do it. For me, those memories are too precious for me to forget.

"Yes. Please do not erase my memory. I want to keep all the memories we've shared in my memory forever" I replied confidently.

Luccane smiled, the most sincere and beautiful smile I've ever seen in my entire life. That man, though he was no longer a man like me, but I loved him so much that I could not describe how much I loved him. This love is not enough if only represented by words, not enough with poetry or poetry as written by poets.

For me, my feelings of love for Luccane are more than anything even I myself hesitate to be able to survive my life without love from him again. It is heartbreaking, but we again have no power to resist the will of the creator.

The heavy rain along with the roar of the thunder tonight is a silent witness of how solid the love of a pair of different dimensional people love each other regardless of the differences that stretch wide apart despite whatever efforts are strong exercised.

Impossible. The love of Luccane and I still can't possibly end beautifully like the bedtime story that Mama used to read when I was a kid.

"Then, may I hug you one last time?" luccane asked so gently, filled with sincerity.

Her two charming clear blue obsidians exchanged glances with me, trying to deliver all the love she had for me without rest tonight.

Once again I was fascinated by the beauty of Luccane who had no gap at all, the beautiful arch created by the two corners of his lips again attracted my heart to fall more and more in love with him, a figure I can't have with a wedding ceremony.

I nodded in agreement, stretching out both my hands welcoming the final hug we had to make as the final step of this heartbreaking farewell. With both of his eyes already soaked with tears of grief, Luccane hugged me tightly as if reluctant to let go of the crib forever.

My cry also dissolved, along with Luccane's cry that sounded even more sad in the middle of a farewell embrace that we actually never promised this.

Turns out, it was only here that the journey of my love and Luccane that we had fought with all our energy.

"Even if we part here, for the sake of the earth and the heavens and the whole universe I will always love you, Vishabea Lazuardi" whispered Luccane in a voice that sounded so heavy that it implied a wound in sorrow.

I smiled as these tears continued to flow profusely, making rivers on both sides of my cheeks.

"I love you no matter who you are, Luccane. I hope we can meet in the next life."

"I love you more, Vishabea."

"Yes, I know, Luccane."

Along with the gentle touch Luccane gave me at the top of my head, everything turned dark.

...****************...

My eyes that felt heavy and painful slowly I opened, trying to adjust the light entering the retina to see well.

I woke up in the guest room of the Mang Ujang family home, like the last night before I went across the paradox of time with Luccane.

My feeling was relieved though there were still wounds left in the depths of this heart but I tried to make peace with that pain for a better life.

The light of the sun this morning seemed so bright and warm, making a thin smile etched into my face. I am grateful to still be able to survive even though I have experienced some unfortunate luck during my stay in the city of Bandung which is rich in history.

When I looked to the left of the room, I found Luccane's parents smiling in their best form.

Mama Luccane who looks beautiful and elegant with white Javanese kebaya combined with batik cloth, standing next to Papa Luccane who also looks handsome and handsome with a white djas toetoep suit.

The man and wife of different nationalities smiled gently to welcome my gaze, at first glance they are very similar to humans in general if only I did not pay attention to their feet that do not tread on the earth.

"Father and Mama, I did what I should. I hope your little family can be reunited soon and happy in heaven," I said slowly, just in case there will be Mang Ujang or Bibi who come.

"Thank you, baby. We hope you can continue living happily. We are also sad that we cannot make you a son-in-law" Mama Luccane replied with a warm smile typical of a mother, while her husband only smiled while nodding.

Ah, yes. If Luccane wasn't a ghost I would be happy to be the daughter-in-law of such a romantic couple.

I chuckled. "i'm also honestly sad that I have to lose my future husband and future-in-law, but I have to take this step for the good of all of us."

"I hope we can really meet in the next life as in-laws and daughter-in-laws, Vishabea" Papa Luccane said in a more gentle tone.

I nodded enthusiastically. "yes, hopefully this time God will listen to my prayers."

Suddenly I heard a knock from the bedroom door, making Papa and Mama Luccane instantly disappear.

Staggering, I rose from the bed to the door of the room that continued to be knocked relentlessly.

"Are you alive or not?" gerutu Andri from behind the door.

"Why the hell?" I just sat down after the door of the room opened.

Andri huffed. "you still ask why? don't you have to remember what purpose you came here for?"

Vin Books. Yep, yeah, the book full of mystery that I have to find out the truth in order to release the seal that makes the spirits of Mama and Papa Luccane also can not return calmly to the lap of God along with strange and scary things othersmore.

"Yes, Andri. I finished my business with Luccane last night, so we'll start investigating the book from today to spend the rest of our vacation for the next three months."

"Huh, what?!"
