"She died"

That made the whole surrounding dead with silence, not even the sound of crawlers or droplets of water can be heard.. the throbbing pain seeps out to their surrounding and he knows that he was letting his emotion gets the better of him. But this is something that he need to tell his daughter, so she wont do the same mistake as what 'she' did before..

"She thinks that by dying for my sake, it will change the course of event... she jump and took a sword right to her heart, dying in my arms. And the painful part was that, she laughed at her own stupidity. She realised that what she thought as a solution was actually the starting point of what will happened to me. Her death was what made me want to die over and over again.."

Ailee frowned and look at him.

"She is really important to you..." it wasnt a question, but affirmation of what she had heard. He didn't bother to deny it and kept silent.

"Who is she to you?"

"My brightest and darkest past.."

"No, I mean.. is she your girlfriend or something?"

"She was my fiancee."

"Oh.." another drop there, and that made him worried about what is turning inside that child's mind.

"Then.. my mother is just a replacement huh?" That totally surprised me.

"No! Of course not! Its true that woman was important to me and I cared for her.. I can't deny of that feeling. Even if it had happened a long time ago, it doesn't changed the fact that my feeling toward her was real, as much as it is real now toward your mother."

"I don't understand grown up.. heart or feeling. I can't even begin to imagine it.. I just wanna know if you truly want this works with my mama.. my mama is a sensitive and cry baby, despite her tough look. I don't want her sad again"

"As I am, my child. I am serious with your mother, that I am sure of. What I'm trying to say is that my fiancee is in the past and your mom is my present and future." He stopped and raised his eyebrow. "How did our talk turn to me? I'm trying to convince you, its good to have a second opinion about your vision. So we can tackle the problem"

Ailee shrugs.

"I dont know.. I mean it does sounds too much that we can change our future too."

"If we cannot, do you think god even bother to gift people that kind of skill? Vision about future can only meant two things: it's served as warning and to tell us that may happen if we didn't heed the warning" that made Ailee deep in thought and finally nodded after few minutes later.

"I guess that's logical.. then hear me out.."

Ailee told him everything what she saw in her vision, not leaving even one little detail. The whole vision weight him down and made him pity his daughter. Heavy vision such as that shouldn't be shouldered by a child. Especially one that foretold of her own death.

Now, they had to think a way how to utilised the whole vision to avoid it from happening. He knows one thing about vision. It will happen, but that is only what is seen by the seer. What hasn't been confirmed can still be changed. They mentioned that three of us were dead, my wife believe it so too. But there is no proof nor anything in the vision that showed us dead.

"You said, she was frozen into statue?"

"Of ice, yes"

"I think I got an idea.." it seems he really had to pay a visit to 'that' man.
