Descendants To Seven
17 Year

"Esperanza, that's the name that papa and mama gave me" said the saleswoman.

"Good name, how old are you now?" ask Te Apoyo.

"17 years, sir" Esperanza replied.

"Aged with my son, he had a birthday 7 days ago" Te Apoyo said.

"really? Then say happy birthday from me, may he live a long and healthy life always," said Esperanza.

"Thank you very much, I'll tell her that there's a beautiful girl named Esperanza, wishing her a happy birthday. He must be very happy," Te Apoyo said with a smile.

"Hehehe, your master praised me too much" said Esperanza timidly with a chuckle.

"I'm just telling you the truth" Te Apoyo said.

Then Te Apoyo glanced at his watch at a glance. And realized that he had been in the store long enough.

"Oh, yes, excuse me, thank you again for the package" Te Apoyo said, showing the parcel of Esperanza.

"Thank you again sir, don't forget to stop by again" Esperanza said politely as the seller told his customers.

Te Apoyo simply nodded then stepped towards the door. As he pushed the door his footsteps stopped. It was as if he heard the voice of Te Espere.

"Until we meet again, Te Apoyo!"

Te Apoyo turned his head towards Esperanza, Esperanza looking at him with a casual face.

"Is there anything you want to buy again, sir?" esperanza asked as she watched Te Apoyo stare at her without blinking.

"No, no," Te Apoyo replied after subconsciously staring at the girl he had only known for a long time.

Esperanza smile. And Te Apoyo nodded his head slightly and then walked out of the store feeling unwilling. His feet were heavy to step on. But he doesn't know why.

In the middle of the journey he still often imagined the face of Esperanza. Then he shook his head. Then exhale heavily. And try to get his mind off Esperanza.

Although he knew that it was not the mind of a man towards a woman, but he felt unworthy to think of any woman other than his wife. Especially his age as his son.

When he arrived home, he was greeted by his wife. Preparations to go home in two days have been completed. Te Apoyo decided to take care of Nicorazon in his own country. And in his own hospital.

"Darling, I heard around here there's a theater that's performing magic. Before we go home, can we see it today?" primavera told Te Apoyo.

"really? But what about Nicorazon?" te Apoyo asked as he glanced at his son who was watching the television broadcast.

Nicorazon pretended not to hear. And pretended to be cool watching television about the news of some students cleaning the lake to preserve the underwater environment.

Which made him suddenly recall the strange thing he had experienced in the lake. He has not told anyone about this strange incident. Because everyone is too focused on the accident.

"You guys want to go? Yes, you're gone. Let mama take care of Nicorazon. Let's just say you're on vacation. If you go home later, you will find it difficult to get a chance like this again" said Lina.

"Yes that's right," said Dion.

And finally Te Apoyo and Primavera went to watch the show at night after finishing dinner.

In a room a magician is restless as he watches the night illuminated by the full moon as night falls. He has a covenant that he must keep. Confusion and feeling confused and afraid to haunt him.

"Do I have to do it?" she asked her reflection in the mirror, who also asked her the same question.

"Why do you doubt? Being my follower must not have the slightest doubt!" said a voice that was the voice of the lake's daughter.

And the shadowy figure of the princess appeared behind the magician and hugged him from the strip. Gave her a soft touch on her face. Smiling meaningfully.

"Remember why you chose to commit suicide a few days ago. Have you forgotten? Do I need to remind you? "

The magician recalled the bitter events that befell his father. Who died in an accident. And from then on the theater building became quiet slowly because the papa was gone.

He tried to learn magic tricks and tried to do the same thing his father did. But he could not do the trick as well as his papa. And all of his performances seemed to be very disappointing to his audience.

The longer he was worse because he had to pay debts for daily expenses. Plus the cost of capital to do the show. Replace the broken equipment. And maintenance costs of the building.

The economic crush left him desperate and trying to cut corners to get rid of debt. The end that led him to fate met the daughter of the lake's guardian. And now put him in even bigger trouble.

"What are you thinking? Afraid? Or do you not know what to do? Just think of a way that one of your visitors, tonight can be an offering for me. Then those spirits and the abilities I gave you, will help you not be known to have lost someone's life."

After saying so the daughter of the lake's guardian disappeared. The young magician was alone. Now he started thinking about what he was going to do. What magic show he can do. In order not to be seen as an act of evil that takes away one's life.

He watched the spectator chairs begin to fill. And the audience who seemed so excited to watch his magic show. Without realizing that one of them will be an offering for the success of magic tonight.

"Did I put a sharp weapon on the spectator's seat?" ask her for her shadow.

He shook his head, imagining what would happen later.

"No way, I don't think that's possible. I have to think of another way!" said again.

He looked at the magic tools that were there. While cuddling the bad good. And finally he decided to do a magic trick that he could do while doing the ritual offering.

This time he called out to the spirits who were under his control. Give them a cue, about what they should do, while the special show is in progress. The spirits nodded in understanding and took their respective positions.

At that time Te Apoyo and Primavera arrived at the location. Primavera got off first. When he saw the theater building decorated with paintings of magic wand and magical world, it made him feel like he saw the world of fairy tales. A story that his mother often read when he was a child.

"Darling, I parked the car first!" te Apoyo said, making the daydream of Primavera return to where his feet rested.

Primavera nodded and smiled.

Seriate...
