"You know why I chose you? Sam, you will replace me after this. Become a strong person in the city" Darma occasionally coughs, Sam listens silently. "Sam, tell me. I didn't point you wrong did I? I'll go in peace because you will definitely take good care of my grandson"
"Nonsense! Let me take you, you will recover and meet Riyu again" Sam tried to let go of Darma's hand, but... Darma looked at him smiling and didn't move anymore.
"Grandpa" Sam watched Darma, no breath and no more movement of his lips. "You're trying to prank me old geezer! Get up quickly I said!" Still, Darma silently smiled at him. Sam embraced Darma's lifeless body, immediately bursting into tears accompanied by an outpouring of anger. Guilt for not being able to keep his promise to Riyu. Maybe after this he will not be able to look at Riyu who will definitely feel devastated when he finds out his grandfather is gone.
