THE LONG JOURNEY TO YOU
ISAZ

“If you want the woman to get out of this place, take the heirloom she keeps! It should be that once the heirloom is taken away, the obligation of the woman will stop and she will probably live like a woman in general!!”

            Deon found his mind constantly twisting the sentence. What's with my brain? Deon complained annoyed that his mind was thinking of something evil.

            Buk up! Deon felt a small pat on his shoulder. Deon turned his head and found Madahrasa coming at him.

            “What's with your face? Why is bruising so?” ask Madaharsa.

            Seeing the figure who has the same face as Algiz without his black mask and the location Deon is in, Deon knows he is now in the dream world again.

            “This .. “ Deon's hand moved without his orders, touching some of his bruised and injured parts of his face. “I was careless and fell when coming down from the hill.”

            “Ohh really??”

Madaharsa touched Deon's scar and soon Deon's scar, which was painful, no longer felt sore. 

            “What did you just do?” Deon's mouth asked according to what Deon asked in his mind. Deon even bowed his head to the river to see his reflection and sure enough, the scar and bruise that had felt painful disappeared without a trace. “You!! You can-“

            “Ssssttt!!” Madaharsa immediately covered Deon's mouth with her index finger. “Please keep this a secret! Can??”

            Deon turned to his right and left, making sure no one had seen him and that Madaharsa had just. “This you!!” Deon spoke in a slightly angry tone to Madaharsa. “If it's a secret, why are you using it on me? What if someone sees it??”

            “But aren't you my friend? Like you said, friends should help each other.”

            This innocent reply from Madaharsa reminded Deon of his previous dream in which a man whose face resembled Isaz-Baram struck and was angry at Deon for giving an empty wish the Madaharsa.

            So this means. Deon looked towards Madaharsa. “Other times don't do this again. Even if it was injured, the wound would have healed later. I just need to hold it in and be patient for some time.”

            “But you will feel pain, Akmana!”

            Deon smiled at the tone of voice filled with anxiety. Deon looked inward at Madaharsa. Deon saw both of Madaharsa's eyes and they were exactly the same as Algiz's. What distinguishes him is that this time Deon can see the look on Madaharsa's face that is anxious, worried and one more. Could this woman named Madaharsa like me? The question came to Deon's mind.

            “Where are there humans who do not feel pain, Madaharsa? In this world, all people will feel pain in any form. Wounds on the body, wounds on the heart and wounds on the mind. The three types of pain-causing injuries were something that would be felt by a human in his life.” Deon clasped Madaharsa's hand. “Other times do not do this again if indeed your ability is a secret. Yes??”

            Madaharsa nodded her head. “Ya.”

            “Who else knows that you have this ability besides me?”

            “Only you and Baram.”

            Baram, yes. Deon remembered Isaz again. Whether in this life or my life, that person is someone who is always around you. Here, he is your future husband and in my life, he is your partner. Deon let go of his grasp in Madaharsa's hands. “Remember this, Madaharsa! Don't trust anyone easily!”

            “I understand!”

            “One more. There's something I want to ask.”

            “What is it?”

            “You are bound in this village, this mountain because of the heirloom you guard. What if the heirloom disappears or is captured?” Deon's mouth asked the question Deon wanted to ask. To get to the roof of his apartment building, Deon needs to go upstairs

            “I don't know. But maybe I'll die. My job is to keep that thing until the owner is born again. If I fail, then maybe I will die.”

            “Why do you think so?”

            “You mean??” Deon doesn't understand.

            “It is possible that if I fail with my task, all the abilities I have will disappear.”

            Deg.

            Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhsh!! Deon awoke from his sleep with a racing heart. Deon woke up with a single thought in his mind. If the heirloom is taken, then maybe Madaharsa will lose his life because he neglected to keep his duty. Could it be the end of the story in my dream

            Deon immediately shook his head, not wanting to think badly with something that was still uncertain. The script! I need to find the author! The author may know how the end of Madaharsa's life story and the heirloom he preserves!

            Deon's eyes stared at the script of the screenplay that was on his bedside table. Tick, tok! From the script, Deon's eyes moved towards the small digital clock that was right next to the script. The gawat!! I'm late to meet Algiz!!

            Deon rushes up from his bed, grabs his jacket and cell phone, and rushes to the roof of his apartment building. From the top floor, Deon must find a special door that will take him to the roof. The door was locked and because in the past, Deon often visited the rooftop as his practice site, Deon had a spare key to the doors leading to the roof of his apartment building.

            Krett!!

            As soon as the roof door opened, Deon thought he was going to see Algiz. Deon had even prepared his apology for being late. But the figure waiting for him on the roof was not Algiz but Isaz. Unlike Algiz who always wore a black mask to cover his face, Isaz blatantly showed his face to Deon.

            “Who are you?” Deon asked that question as a form of his pretense.

            “Leo. I'm a friend of Rae.”

            Pseudonym? What might those names be the ones they used when they were undercover and met with a commoner like me.

            “Ke-why are you here and not Rae? Where is Rae??”

            “Rae is in a job that can not be delayed.” The man who claimed his name as Leo with the code name Isaz was talking casually. But Deon doesn't believe it. Because Algiz never once came and he didn't send anyone else.

            “Then, did Rae send you here?” ask Deon.

            “No.” Isaz approached Deon and clutched Deon's pajama collar.

            She was! What Isaz did to him, made Deon remember his previous dream. He really looks like Baram! Possibly …

            Deon is not an Akmana - the man in his dream who just accepted the bad deeds of others to him. Buk!! Deon, with his hand, immediately released Isaz's hand on his lapel. “What do you want??”

            “You!!” Isaz seemed to be angry with Deon's reply. But it quickly changed the expression of his face that almost looked angry, returning to his flat expression. “Already!! I came here just to give you a warning!”

            “Warning?? What warning?”

            “Sway Rae!! As much as possible avoid him!”

            “Why??” Deon obviously did not accept the warning because it was not an easy thing Deon could meet and be close to Algiz up to this point.

            “The fate that connected you is very bad! If your relationship continues, that bad ending will repeat itself!!”

            A bad ending?? You know what happened in the past between me and Algiz??  Deon looked at Isaz with shocked and incredulous eyes. Could it be that you were the one who wrote the screenplay and used Madaharsa's name as his pen name??
