Faith and Zion looked at each other. They both look shy. No one dared to disturb those lovers. They deliberately gave Zion and Faith time to be alone.
"Mama's still busy hanging out with the others. I'll tell Mama about this tomorrow morning after breakfast." Zion stuffed the burnt sausage into her mouth. After this the man wanted to taste the meat.
"I haven't told Papa this matter either. I'll tell papa in the morning I'm afraid Papa's in the mind." Faith took the fresh juice on the table and drank it slowly.
Zion nodded in agreement. "Yes, you're right. Looks like tomorrow afternoon our boat will dock. Where are you going after that? Did you go home to Dominic in Las Vegas or back to your American home? Because Dominic isn't around, let me drive you and Uncle Zean later."
"I haven't talked about this to Papa. The doctor said Papa should be in control once every 1 month. That means we no longer need to live in America.
Actually, I'd like to go to Las Vegas to see Dominic. I also want to invite Papa to stay there. But I don't know what's on my mind. Before we get married, I'll go wherever Papa goes." Faith turned her eyes. She enjoys the beauty of the ocean at night.
"Then after we get married, where do you want to live?" zion asked suddenly to make Faith look at him in disbelief. "We're getting married soon. That means from now on we have to think about a place to live" Zion continued.
Faith narrowed her eyes at Zion's question. "I'll go wherever Brother Zion goes."
"It can't be like that. You have to tell me where you want to live? Is there a special country or city you want to live in? It just so happens that I haven't built a house until now. I'll think about it from now on. So just decide where it's located."
Zion is happy because now her life does not melt discussing the issue of power and enemies. Talking about the house made Zion look excited that night. It feels like Zion can't wait to live in the house they built just alone.
"Although far away, won't it be a problem?" ask Faith to hesitate. Actually the woman had a dream that she would have a house in the city that has 4 seasons. Faith wants to feel like living in a house that will snow every year.
Zion held onto Faith's hand and rubbed it gently. "No problem. I'll build a house where you want it. Wherever it is. Even to the end of the world."
Faith looks happy to hear Zion's answer. "If our marriage is to be carried out in the near future, it looks like building a house will not be completed in such a short time. We better find a ready-made house. There are many simple houses out there that are suitable for us to live in."
"simple?" asked Zion again with a serious face.
Faith agreed. "If it's too big I can't afford to clean it up" Faith replied with a timid laugh. That made Zion love him even more.
"You're a different woman than any woman out there. It could be when your future husband asks what kind of house you want you answer a simple house. Alright, I will buy a house that is simple but in accordance with my version," Zion murmured inwardly.
"I want to have a home in a country that has four seasons. I'm tired of living in a hot place." Faith looked at Zion seriously. "Can I?"
"All right." Zion seemed to agree. The man did not mind at all if he had to settle in a country that had four seasons.
"Sir Zion, is Brother busy?" Suddenly Daisy was standing there. The woman was with Foster beside her. Just like the others, they both wore all-black clothes.
"What's wrong?" ask Zion. He doesn't like to be disturbed.
"There's something important I want to talk about." Daisy looked at Faith with a smile. "Sister-in-law, can I borrow my brother for a moment? I'll get her back soon."
"Of course," Faith replied quickly.the woman did not mind at all.
Zion immediately moved from the chair she had been sitting in. The man followed Daisy's steps. The two of them ended up standing on the outskirts of the ship like they were talking about something serious. Foster is still near Faith. Daisy did assign Foster to keep Faith from eavesdropping on their conversation.
"Actually what do you want to say? What'd you take me this far for?" Zion's a little protest. He did not like to play around because the man still wanted to be near the woman he loved.
"Sister Foster just got word from someone that Las Vegas was attacked by a mobster gang. They know that for a few months Dominic did not occupy Las Vegas. So they took this opportunity to take control of it and drive Dominic out of Las Vegas."
"What?" zion did not believe. Now the man knows what the main reason Dominic left secretly was this afternoon.
"Will Big Brother just shut up to see sister-in-law's candidate being attacked there?"
"Of course I'll be there to help him!" answer Zion steady. "Tonight I'm going to Las Vegas."
"There's one more problem. If you disappear, everyone will be suspicious. What else if this news reached the ears of Uncle Zean and also Kak Faith, they would definitely think. We have to figure out a way for Brother Zion to leave this ship without anyone suspecting it. But what's the right reason for everyone to believe?"
Zion's speechless. What Daisy said is true. "Do you have any ideas?"
"I can't think straight now. All I know is that Brother Foster will come with brother to help brother. Because we can't possibly involve Brother Norah and Brother Austin anymore. They already have Harumi, I don't want to until something happens to them and make Harumi sad."
"Then his business will be easier. I'll tell Faith that I left because I want to help Foster solve his problems in Japan. That way no one will be suspicious because as far as they know I went to help Foster instead of helping Dominic."
"We better be honest with Mama because it will be much better. So that Mama can also calm Uncle Zean and Faith as long as I'm not on this ship. I'll also ask Mama to return to continue the journey so that as long as I help Dominic, Uncle Zean and Faith remain stuck on this ship. I hope others agree with my idea."
"Alright, I'll help Brother Zion. I hope no one realizes that we're covering something up. Especially the Opa Zen. I hope they all continue on this journey again."
"Then I'll go first. Faith's gonna be suspicious if we talk too long."
Daisy nags. "I'll wait for Brother Foster here. There are some important things I want to talk to him about again. Oh right, there's one more thing I want to ask Brother Zion."
Zion who had wanted to walk away had to stop again and look at Daisy. "What do you want to ask me?"
"As long as Brother Foster accompanies Brother Zion, please take good care of Brother Foster. I don't want him to get fucked. Same with Zion herself. I want these two men I love to come home safe. Because we also do not know what kind of enemy we are now facing. It could be that their abilities are carried by Brother Zion and there is a high possibility that their abilities are above the abilities that Brother Zion has. Plus they've been sitting around in Las Vegas for a long time. It was definitely a plan they prepared that was very mature."
"alright. I promise you I'll be back safe." Zion shuffles Daisy's hair before leaving. Daisy smiled warmly at that moment. Although the heartbeat is not calm anymore, but this is a risk they have to face because they are a mafia family.
"Sister Zion had to sacrifice so heavily just to make Kak Faith his wife. I hope that after marriage they will find endless happiness."
...***...
Dominic has arrived in Las Vegas. Even now his arrival did not get a warm welcome again from his confidants. Until then Dominic has been suspicious that indeed now his territory is being harassed by foreigners. To the extent that the person working under his leadership did not have the opportunity to welcome him at the airport.
Dominic remained calm. The man got into a taxi and asked the taxi to take him somewhere. It was clear Dominic could not go straight back to his residence because it was tantamount to surrendering himself to the enemy.
When you arrive in Las Vegas, the clock is still showing at 10:00 p.m. Dominic looks relaxed in a taxi that now takes him to a modest house in a corner of the city.
"Nothing has changed. Looks like they just attacked my residence" Dominic murmured as he watched the city of Las Vegas at night.
The taxi driver sitting in front was seen watching what Dominic was doing back there.
"Sir, you seem to be tired. Would you like a drink?" hail the taxi driver and hand Dominic a bottle of mineral water. Because Dominic was thirsty at the time, the man immediately received the mineral bottle and looked at it a little. Dominic checked his phone again after he had drunk the water.
Dominic suddenly felt sleepy. The man looked for a comfortable position before leaning quietly. The taxi driver in front was smiling happily when Dominic fell asleep. The man took his taxi to a place opposite the direction of the destination Dominic wanted to go to.
The car drove quickly through the silence of the night. From the expression on the taxi driver's face, it could be seen clearly that he was impatient to bring Dominic to his master.
Suddenly Dominic wrapped a rope around the neck of the taxi driver so that the taxi driver was no longer concentrating on his taxi. It turns out Dominic wasn't that easy to pin down. What else is his territory. Obviously he knew which Las Vegas residents were real and which were outsiders.
"Who are you? What do you want? Where are you taking me?" Dominic still gave the man a chance to explain.
"Sir, why are you doing this to me? What's my fault?" asked the taxi driver, still with a face pretending to be stupid.
"Do you think I don't know that the drink has something you've put together to put me to sleep! That way you'll easily take me to a place that's already determined by the person who paid you." Dominic's guess was 100% correct until it finally made the taxi driver upset.
The taxi driver widened his eyes. "Wine. It turns out he's not as stupid as I thought." He had no idea Dominic knew his plan. "I'm sorry, sir. I am also saving my family. They threatened me. So inevitably I do this to you" the cab driver lied. The taxi driver is a hitman who is assigned to kill Dominic.
The taxi driver immediately stopped his car so as not to get hurt. He chose a quiet place.
Dominic thinks the taxi driver is not a worthy opponent for him and he also feels sorry when the taxi driver says his family is in danger. Until finally Dominic took off the rope that had wrapped around the neck of the taxi driver.
"Comedown. Let me recover this cab. I don't need you anymore!" expel Dominic.
"Okay, sir" replied the taxi driver. He got out of the cab. Likewise with Dominic because now Dominic wants to get into the taxi again and take the taxi to the location he wants to visit.
Just got out, suddenly the cab driver hit Dominic. Dominic quickly parried the man's hand and then beat him back. He felt sorry for believing what the taxi driver said.
"I won't let you get away!" The taxi driver pulled out his firearm. He wants to shoot Dominic but Dominic quickly raises his hand and kicks the gun until it bounces. At the same time Dominic beat the man again until battered. They beat each other and wrestled on the silent streets.
Because the situation was so urgent, finally the rowdy taxi driver pulled out a dagger. He wanted to thrust the sharp weapon into Dominic's stomach. But Dominic realized it first. Dominic quickly pulled out his gun and shot the man repeatedly to death.
After making sure his opponent was lifeless again, Dominic sat down beside the man and set his breath. He did not expect that he would get this kind of welcome in his own territory. "I need to move quickly. I can't let them rule Las Vegas!"
