Don Gabriel Emerson lantern
Eps 1 - Meeting
A man came to a hotel and checked in on behalf of Gabriel Emerson. The man was escorted to a room that was quite luxurious.
"Did anyone rent this hotel for an event?" gabriel asked a waiter who was dropping him off.
"The owner of the hotel is hosting his wedding reception here, sir" the maid replied and Gabriel nodded in understanding. He asked because the VIP parking was full and he also saw a lot of officials and important people who entered this hotel.
"Who's the owner?" gabriel asked because this was the first time he entered this hotel and it was without a plan.
"Amar Degazi, sir"
"Owner Degazi Corp?" ask Gabriel again.
"Yes, Sir"
Then Gabriel ordered the maid to leave him while Gabriel immediately rushed to the bathroom.
Unbeknownst to anyone Gabriel was staying at this hotel, he even felt tired and wanted to quit everything.
28-year-old Gabriel Emerson has no choice in his life because since he was born, his father has decided everything for Gabriel. From where it will grow, what will become and so forth.
In fact, his father who owns the kingdom of the underworld aka the criminal world bequeathed it to Gabriel as the only child.
For the sake of his father, Gabriel took over the job and became a very feared Don, disinclined and respected.
But all of that Gabriel had to pay very expensive, because in order to maintain the legacy of the father, the lover and the baby Gabriel left Gabriel alone. Wrestling in the dark of his life, and drowning in solitude.
And yes, not only did his wife and children leave Gabriel because of the life Gabriel had, his mother also left Gabriel when Gabriel was 10 years old and decided to become the heir to his father's work. The mother was forced to leave Gabriel, because she hated her husband's life so much that she couldn't bear it if something happened to Gabriel because of what they were doing. Therefore he left, at least if his son died from being stabbed many times or in the trunk with a bullet, he did not need to see it. The mother simply told Gabriel that she could choose another way of life. And if one day Gabriel chooses another way of life, then that's when his mother will return.
"Oh, Mommy... I miss you and I feel so tired" Gabriel murmured as he closed his eyes, enjoying the warm water in the buthub.
..........
Gabriel was about to leave the hotel after he felt well rested, but suddenly some people attacked him which made Gabriel had to fight them dead without anyone's help.
Enemies are coming more and more, and Gabriel will definitely run out by this time. Actually Gabriel does not care about it, but considering that in this hotel there is a big event and he does not want to mess it up. In addition, he did not want the news of his death to be world news. Gabriel fought the enemy while moving backwards and trying to hide.
In the dictionary of Gabriel's life there is no word surrender, but if needed he only has to delay the war time and for him it is policy.
Gabriel desperately tries to knock out some of his enemies as he calls for help, then Gabriel quickly sneaks into the women's toilet and one of the enemies manages to stab him there, knocking Gabriel down. The man who stabbed him immediately ran out.
"Coward!" "Gabriel's growl while pulling the knife still stuck in his stomach, he groaned in pain as he felt the knife being pulled and Gabriel dropped the knife on his side.
Until arriving...
"Aggh.." a little girl who looked like an angel walked into the toilet and looked very surprised to see Gabriel. Gabriel himself was used to make people hysterical and ran breezed from her, he also suspected this little girl would run scared and might cry pitting to her father.
"Of...!" the girl exclaimed as she walked over to Gabriel, not looking frightened on her face but apprehension. It made Gabriel surprised and astonished.
"Let Firda call for help yes, fearing that Om will bleed to death" he chirped and it made Gabriel smile faintly.
"So her name is Firda?" her inner voice said and her lips still held a faint smile what more as Firda said fearing Gabriel would bleed to death "Is there no more formal and polite word than that?"
"Don't.." said Gabriel then limply "I've called for help, you better go!" tell him firmly. But Firda ignored him while more and more blood flowed.
Boldly, Firda put away Gabriel's hand that had been pressing down on her stomach since. Baffling Gabriel with this fearless little girl. Firda lifted Gabriel's shirt and Gabriel let it go, feeling attracted by this girl's bravery.
"Om, the wound is severe. Oh, my God, the chair. It hurts, Om?" Firda asked again which again made Gabriel stumble upon a smile in the middle he endured his pain.
"Angels are not very smart!" gabriel in the heart
"Om, did Om fall how to his stomach hurt like this? Well, this is a tear wound. Which favor? Too long?" Gabriel chuckled softly hearing Firda's endless chattering. And he also asked how could this little girl say 'how could someone fall in the bathroom and get a tear wound in her stomach'. Because even the dumbest man in the world wouldn't think it's a wound from falling in the toilet.
"Who said it was because of a fall, O little angel?"
Gabriel took the knife beside him slowly so that Firda remained unaware of the whereabouts of the knife and then he hid the knife behind his body.
While the girl seemed to be thinking about something, looking for a way to suppress the wound so as not to continue bleeding until help arrived.
And suddenly Firda released her outer pashmina.
Gabriel was more confused to see Firda let go of his pashmin, and unexpectedly, Firda tied her pashmin in Gabriel's stomach to suppress his wound. Gabriel was stunned to see what this little girl in front of him was doing.
"Om, Firda called for an ambulance yes, Om's wound was getting worse," said Firda and he saw his hands were also covered in the blood of this foreign man, but Firda did not look afraid at all, makes Gabriel amazed.
And soon some men of great stature came by pointing a gun at Firda who was still unaware of their arrival, but Gabriel gave his intention to lower their weapons. They also lowered their weapons.
"Help has come." Gabriel gave Firda a sigh and Firda turned his head.
"Om, it's a long time coming," Firda scolded with a slight yell at some of the men and they seemed surprised to be angry at the little girl, even Gabriel who saw it was also surprised. "He almost bled to death, you know!" he continued still with a sewot tone like a mother who scolded her child.
"It's okay, thank you for the help," said Gabriel, then some men of large stature immediately took Gabriel away from there, leaving Firda who was now sighing in relief.
"May Om be safe, what a pity."
