Ashgard: Ambition and Purpose
I'm Home #95

"Join and come with me, my brother Carlos," without a doubt Berlin said so before Carlos.

"Wait on! Berlin, are you crazy?!"

"You invited him to join?!"

Of course, Berlin's invitation and request to Carlos immediately got rejection and opposition from his friends. But Berlin just stood still and glanced sharply at his comrades, and made his comrades speechless after seeing his two sharp eyes staring at them.

"Well, but are you sure of that decision, Berlin?" cetus Adam's.

But Berlin just kept quiet and stared at Carlos who seemed still stunned by his request. "Of course I'm sure, but I'm not the one who decides" Berlin said, looking at his brother Carlos.

Carlos sighed before then giving his reply, "Berlin, I don't think I can accept your request, I can't" he said.

"I just feel inappropriate" he continued.

"Then, where are you going after this, Carlos?" sahut Berlin asked.

Suddenly Carlos put on a doubtful and confused face. At first he planned to go straight back to the Federal after the task given by Berlin to him was completed, namely ensuring the safety of Nadia. But suddenly there was doubt in his heart to return to the place called Federal, because of course it was a very cold and uncomfortable place to live.

Berlin could see the doubt in the eyes of his brother. He approached Carlos and said, "after this I'll be at the Central Hospital, go there and see me if you change your mind" he said without any coercion.

After saying that, Berlin decided to leave his residence with his colleagues, and he left Carlos alone there.

"Boss, is it okay to leave Carlos there?" ask Kimmy.

"Yes, you know what Carlos is like, right?" timpal Sasha was in the same car as Berlin.

Now it wasn't Berlin driving the car, it was Adam. He was made silent for a moment by the questions of his two colleagues, before he replied, "I just want to give it a chance."

Along the way, Berlin and his colleagues did not notice any signs of other humans, as if all they had left were them.

"I still can't believe it was Clone Nostra" Sasha murmured.

"Clone Nostra is a big syndicate, and I thought that they could do all this easily" Adam said.

"However, I'm not sure if Clone Nostra is just unilateral. I feel there are other parties who help him to do the action like this" Kimmy said.

"Yes, based on what we have witnessed and experienced so far, we have faced Cassano who is indicated to have an attachment to the Clone Nostra, and we can also see how massive the Red Rascals are moving all the way" Adam said.

Some conversation and chatter took place between the three of them, except for Berlin. Berlin seems to be quiet more often without caring so much about the surrounding. His mind is currently only focused and focused on one thing, namely the existence and condition of Nadia.

"Berlin, are you okay?" cetus Kimmy who realized that Berlin who was sitting next to the steering chair was daydreaming.

"Yes, I'm fine" said Berlin so aware of his daydreams.

"Boss, seeing the state of the city being so chaotic, do you have any particular intentions or plans?" adam asked slightly turned his head and glanced towards Berlin beside him before finally returning to focus to the streets ahead.

Berlin glanced at his colleague who asked like that, and tried to examine what he meant before then giving an answer, "well, for a while maybe not."

"My plan is up, Dam," he continued.

When viewed from both eyes of Berlin, it was seen that the man was exhausted and even difficult to think if he had to think about plans again. After everything that happened on the island, it was natural for Berlin to look so tired and it was supposed to take a break after going through all the conflicts on the island.

"In addition there are many officers who will intervene to handle this situation, we just trust them" said Sasha.

But it seems Berlin did not agree so much and gave little opposition to the thought of his female colleagues. "Yes, just trust them, but I still can't trust them completely" said Berlin.

His disbelief in the apparatus was already in the past, even though Berlin itself came from a family that had a police base. His friends already recognized his nature so well, and already considered it a natural thing for Berlin.

"If you have a decision and a plan, just tell us, boss! We are ready to accept and carry it out in accordance with what decisions you will take" said Adam.

"Yes, at least invite us if you make a decision and also maybe if you're going to take action" Kimmy added.

"We will always follow you, Berlin. I don't know what your decisions and orders are" said Sasha.

Berlin smiled at all of this and said, "you have nothing in exchange, you have always been like that."

"Haha!" Adam chuckled at Berlin's expression and then said, "yes, that's how we are."

"Yup, yup!" exclaim Sasha.

"Because we have always believed in you, Berlin," Kimmy chimed in and then commented on her thin smile.

Arriving at the hospital, Berlin and his colleagues were made quite surprised by the condition of the hospital so crowded. In the morning of this blind day, the hospital was filled with people who were displaced by the invasion carried out by Clone Nostra. Not only that, there are also some innocent people who were injured due to the invasion.

"You guys, stop and don't move!"

"Thank you both hands, and let no one take any uncooperative action, nor will we act decisively!"

When entering the hospital area. The move by Berlin and his colleagues was halted by several military and police officers there. They were stopped for carrying firearms, and even the officers were not reluctant to crack down if Berlin and his colleagues were uncooperative.

"What the fuck?!" cetus Aryo looks not welcome.

"Have, just follow their request and don't act as you please ...!" said Kimmy.

Forced, Ashgard had to kneel with both hands on his head, but not with Berlin. He immediately confronted one of the officers who appeared to have high rank, and proposed to talk to them.

"I'm sorry, but we are not one of the 'them'" Berlin told reporters. His gaze was sharp, and he did not erase his cold attitude and expression when dealing with the apparatus.

"What can make me believe in your words" the official said. The face of the apparatus could not be seen because it was wearing a mask and tactical clothing that was so complete.

Berlin grabbed an identity card from his pocket, and then showed his identity card to the officer.

"Berlin Gates?!" both eyes belonging to the apparatus were shocked when they saw reading the full name of Berlin on the identity card.

"Pardon us, get back on your feet and raise your heads!" pinta the apparatus to Berlin colleagues who are still kneeling.

"Well, that's it, dong!" murmured Kent felt a little annoyed by the unfriendly welcome from the officers who were guarding there.

"They don't know if we're the one who snatched up Nicolaus, what?" timpal Aryo with a whisper and tone and speech that is quite rancid.

"Hush!" kimmy insisted and made the two colleagues stop talking and fell silent.

"Have we been able to pass?" ask Berlin.

"Oh, sure! Of course, please!" sahut the apparatus.

Berlin and his colleagues are welcome to enter the hospital without losing their firearms. Even so, Berlin still warned his friends to be professional and not to issue firearms at will in the hospital area.

When stepping into the hospital, Berlin was immediately greeted by a large number of people who used the place as a temporary place for them to take shelter. Both eyes caught not only adults, but also people who were elderly up to small children were in that place. He could also see that they were all harboring deep traumas and fears.

Looking at the condition, it seemed enough to shake his heart a little. Berlin felt very sorry for them, and also at the same time felt sad when he saw the scene.

"Oh, Berlin!" a voice that was not foreign enough was heard through his ears. A woman walks towards Berlin who turns out the woman is Netty, Prawira's secretary.

"When did you come back? Thank goodness you are safe again" Netty said, looking quite pleased with the presence of Berlin and his colleagues, although incomplete.

"We've just arrived" replied Berlin.

Netty smiled broadly as she looked at the handsome face of the man before her, and as if hinting at something through her gaze as she said, "Berlin, meet him immediately ...!"

"Where can I see him?" berlin Sahut.

"Follow me!" pinta Netty and then walked towards the hospital hallways.

Berlin followed where Netty would take him, before he had told his friends to be free to rest without having to keep following him.

Berlin's move came to a halt when Netty also stopped and turned to a hospital room door. Netty gestured through her eyes and smiled as if she was telling Berlin to open the door.

KLeeeKk ...!!!

By slowly Berlin opened the door of the room, and when the door was wide open. Both of his eyes were immediately fixed on the figure of the woman who really made his heart happy and calm when he saw her.

"Berlin ...?" said the woman who was sitting on a gurney with a full gaze and happy to see the presence of Berlin again.

DRAPP ...!!!

Without further ado, Berlin took quick steps and immediately embraced his beloved wife with longing in his heart. Realizing the presence of the husband who was hugging him, it made both eyes belonging to Nadia tear happy and full of gratitude.

"I'm home, Nadia" said Berlin as she embraced the pregnant woman with tenderness and affection.
