“ Irish. You know the reason why I became a programmer and Hacker?” ask Ed to start the story.
“ eh? Because...., to investigate your grandfather's death?” answer Irish.
“ yes, I feel my grandfather's death is no ordinary death. Every day grandfather is always healthy - even always able to go down the mountain and up the mountain to make medicine. But one day, when I came home alone from fishing - suddenly my grandfather was gone. The doctor said my grandfather died because of his old age.
Do you think I would believe if someone who is always healthy could suddenly die?” ask Ed.
“ did anyone poison your grandfather?” ask Irish.
“ possible and could be. Grandpa's medicines use herbs and can not be compared with medical drugs today - Miss Alice's pregnancy is proof of the greatness of my grandfather's medical techniques.” explained Ed.
“However, why?
What's the reason people poisoned grandfather?
We are just apothecaries living in the mountains. Did my grandfather have enemies before?” ed paused his words.
“ then? Have you found the reason-from your search all this time?” wonder Irish.
“ the answer is; i.” says Ed.
“ you? What do you mean?” wonder Irish.
“ in Italy there is the Mafia, in America there is the Criminal Gang, in Hong Kong there are Gangsters, in Japan there are Yakuza and in Mexico named Katel.” said Ed divert.
“ WHAT? Don't tell me if your origins are the Mafia?” irish did not believe it.
“ yes, my grandfather is not my grandfather. I myself just found out if my grandfather was part of the Mafia who served in drugs more precisely - poison.
It is tasteless, odorless and can not be detected using advanced medical devices because it mixes directly with blood and does not make blood clot.” said Ed.
“ what exactly did you kidnap your grandfather?” ask Irish.
“ no! Grandpa protected me! You know the dark world? There is no such thing as peace because there is only bloodshed and fighting. My biological mother was only a concubine - however, because it contained me who was predicted to be born as a boy even in the womb - made my mother spoiled by my father and loved more than her legal wife.” reply Ed.
“ has become a habit of being the rightful heir is a descendant of a previous mafia chairman - unfortunately, even to the point of having three children - my father's legitimate wife only has daughters. It is common for women to be considered weak - that is why, my father loved me while still in the womb.” continued Ed.
“ yes, the legitimate wife sent grandfather to poison my mother, unfortunately - one thing the legal wife does not know is; the grandfather loves my mother like his own biological child. My mom doesn't want to, if I keep being on the dark side of the world. Because it was tantamount to risking my life-from the pursuit of the enemy, not to mention the grudge of the legitimate wife. My mother can't focus on protecting me nor protecting her herself.
That's why, mother pretended to be poisoned from the poison belonging to grandfather. My father only knew that I was gone, but quietly I grew up and happy in a place far from my father.
Grandpa himself chose to live in the mountains to avoid the life of the Mafia.”, Ed explained.
Irish speechless. It was unexpected that Ed's life was more complicated than he thought.
“ then? What does your past story have to do with revealing your feelings?” ask Irish.
“ you don't matter if I'm a Mafia descendant?” ask Ed.
“ haven't you been in no contact with your Mafia family, Ed?” ask Irish.
“ reason I don't express my feelings is not just because of my family's origin. However, I was afraid, there would be a day when my Mafia family knew about me and put the people closest to me in danger. That's why I don't express my feelings. I'm afraid that my family will use you because they know you're my biggest weakness.” Ed said holding Irish's hand.
“ then? Why are you expressing your feelings now? You even asked me to get married?” irish lirih.
“ because I have conquered them.” Ed said.
“ ha?” wonder Irish.
“ I have conquered the one who betrayed my mother and allied with my father's legitimate wife.”
“ AP? Really?”ed Sunggung's speech was immeasurable for the Irish.
“ yes, I have even legitimately become the Mafia leader of my family. So that they will not dare to make you my weakness.” chuckles Ed.
Hearing that, Irish was silent. Between surprise and disbelief.
“ so? Do you want to be the wife of a Mafia, my dear Irish?”ed said he took Irish.
“ Ed! The title of this work Affair with my Ex-Wife is not The Mafia is My Hubby.”
