Love Worth Fighting For-Chapter 351
351 Princess X Luna ๐ณ๐ณ๐e๐ฌ๐๐๐ป๐๐๐ฒl.๐๐๏ฝ
Clarke family funeral, 11.00 AM.
The sun was not yet overhead, but the Clarke family cemetery was now filled with big men in black clothes.
The bodyguards strictly guarded the burial area that could not be entered by just anyone very well, because Lunaโs existence had been kept secret so far, so that during the funeral process there were no outsiders present except for a priest who helped lead the prayers in Lunaโs funeral procession.
Christian who hasnโt slept since yesterday stands with his head down beside the grave. Luna Gracelie Clarke, the name is beautifully engraved on a small tombstone in the cemetery area.
โThank you for your help, father. I represent the Clarke family, I owe you a lot,โ Erick said politely to the priest who was about to leave the grave area. โBe careful on the road, father.โ
The priest responded to Erickโs words in a very friendly manner, after giving a few messages to Jack and Christian the priest then left the cemetery area to resume his work.
โDo we need to keep an eye on the priest?โ
Erick smiled. โNo need, that priest is one of the priests Mr. Jack knows quite well. I donโt think he will reveal this secret, so you donโt have to keep an eye on him. Heโs a good person.โ
The bodyguard who just asked nodded his head in response to Erickโs words.
.....
Because his job was done, Erick then rejoined Jack and his family.
โJoshuaโs father is home, Erick?โ he asked quietly.
โYes, he went straight away in his car, sir.โ
โThank God, I owe him a lot. After this is done, remind me to visit his house,โ said Jack again.
Eric nodded. โYes sir.โ
โTake Suri and Charlotte home, they need...โ
โNo! I donโt want to go home yet.โ Suri cut her fatherโs words with a half shout. โI still want to be with Luna here.โ
โSuri ..โ
โI want to be with Luna longer, Daddy,โ Suri asked softly, her eyes looking so red. Continuing to cry since yesterday made Suriโs face look puffy and pale.
Jack shook his head slowly. โYou need rest, look at your face. You look so messed up right now.โ
โI donโt care about my face, I still want to be here. If Daddy wants to go home please go home, donโt take me!โ
โAnne...โ
โNo Jack, I donโt want to go home either,โ said Anne hoarsely. โI still want to be here, I want to accompany Luna a little longer.โ
โAnne.โ Jack squeezed his wifeโs hand tightly. โAll of you will get sick if you continue like this, since yesterday none of you have eaten and rested. If you keep forcing yourself to continue like this then you will get sick!โ
Anneโs eyes filled with tears. โI still want to accompany Luna, Jack. Poor her, she must be scared and lonely in her new home alone like this sob...
Jack who couldnโt stand to hear Anneโs words immediately took Anne into his arms, Jack patted Anneโs back affectionately.
โThink All of us, Anne.โ Jack tried to speak again. โWe all still need your attention, if you get sick then who will take care of us? Nothing can replace the duties of a wife and mother, Anne. We could fall apart if you were sick.โ
โJack...โ
โI am also very sad and devastated by Lunaโs death, but I know that I have to move on. We canโt continue to be sad like this, Luna also definitely wonโt be happy to see all of us keep crying over her death. Luna must be sad if we all continue like this, Anne,โ said Jack again, wrapping his arms around Anneโs body. โLuna is calm now, she is not sick. Luna can already run up there, Anne. She must be playing with Princess right now, Princess must be happy to meet Luna, with her niece.โ
Anne pushed Jack away, her wet eyes staring at Jack. โLuna met princess?โ
โYes, of course they did. Princess must have welcomed Luna happily by now, so Luna wonโt be lonely or scared anymore because thereโs a princess who takes care of her,โ answered Jack a little hoarsely, talking about their second child who died tens of years ago made his chest feel a little tight.
Anneโs tears fell again, being reminded of her second daughter who died in her womb due to an accident made her sad again. Anne slowly turned to Christian who was still sitting on his knees beside Lunaโs grave.
โWe have to take Christian too, since yesterday he hasnโt eaten and slept at all,โ said Anne quietly.
Jack pursed his lips. โYou can talk to him, canโt you?โ
โYes, Iโll talk to him.โ Anne wiped her tears slowly. โChristian has to go home, he needs to rest. I donโt want to lose anymore.โ
โOkay, Iโll talk to Suri then.โ
After wiping her tears, Anne then steps towards where Christian is sitting. Anne then speaks softly to Christian, trying to persuade him to go home. Jack then did the same thing to Suri. Lunaโs death made all of Jackโs anger towards Suri disappear, he even decided to return all the rights that he had taken from Suri over the past month. Starting from the credit card and cellphone that he had previously taken already returned to Suri even though Suri has not touched it, Lunaโs death makes Suri lose interest in her favorite objects.
Anne takes almost twenty minutes to invite Christian to leave Lunaโs grave, Anne speaks so carefully so as not to offend Christian. Even though she knows if Christian is going to be so annoyed when she talks about Princess, Anne is forced to do so. She was forced to bring the name Princess in her conversation so that Christian would go home, just as Jack said before, Anne also told Christian that Luna was with Princess now. Hearing his sisterโs name being called made Christian suddenly regain his senses, his sanity slowly returning.
โWe can visit Luna again tomorrow, but now we have to go home. You need rest, Christ. Luna will definitely be sad if she sees her father sick, Luna definitely doesnโt want to see you continue to mourn her death,โ said Anne slowly.
Christian nods slowly. โI want to rest at the villa.โ
โVilla, but why does it have to be at the villa? Mommy wonโt be able to take care of it if you go back to the villa, dear.โ Anne immediately rejects Christianโs plan to return to the villa. โThereโs Charlotte at home after all, sheโll be lonely if youโre not home.โ
Christian averts his gaze from Lunaโs tombstone to Anne. โI want to calm down in the villa, the place where Elenaโs memories are.โ
โChrist...โ
โIn the villa itโs all about Elena and Luna being so strong, Mom. I want to rest my body and brain there.โ Christian interrupts Anne in a barely audible voice. โIโll be fine, Mom. Donโt worry.โ
โOkay, but only two days. Mommy only gives you two days, after two days have passed you have to go home.โ
Christian nods slowly. โYes mom, Iโll definitely be home.โ
