Episode 62 : Two Glowing Pearls

It is now the next day and at the underwater castle of Aman's family, Aman was at his bedroom sadly hanging out alone.......

Aman: (sits up on his bed) (yawns) (looks around) (takes a pearl out of his pocket) (watches Bulan, Sidapa and the rest of the gang preparing their leave at the land) (tears fall on his face) (in his mind) only if I did not have the conscience so I can come.... (takes a deep breath) but I just can't...... (wipes his tears)
*Saidon and Sinaya slowly and quietly opens the bedroom door and peeks at Aman*
Sinaya: (sadly watches Aman feeling alone) (whispers to Saidon) this is what I am telling you..... why not talk to him.... he is holding back things because he still thinks of you....
Saidon: I know... (whispers to Sinaya) (sadly stares at Aman) we might be fine but I think I made him more afraid to look at the bigger picture of this world.......
Aman: (notices Sinaya and Saidon peeking at him) mother? (keeps wiping his tears immediately) father?? have you guys been there watching me????
Sinaya: ugh... (guiltily looks at Saidon) actually.... your father has something to say to you... that is why we are here.... (enters the room)
Saidon: I do??? (looks confused at Sinaya)
Sinaya: (nods and looks annoyed at Saidon)
Saidon: (nods) (sadly looks and approaches Aman) ugh... (sits on the bed) Aman??
Aman: what is it father? anything to do for you?? (smiles slightly) I mean... I think I learned a lot from my friends to become a king.....
Saidon: yeah I ugh... I actually am here to ask about your friends because I am too lazy to swim up and ask how they are or if they need something.......
Aman: (watches Bulan packing up with everyone in his pearl) they are so brave to be needing somebody, father..... but still.... if they are travelling.. I wish them all the best protection against this cruel world......
Saidon: (sadly watches Aman watching Bulan and everyone else in his pearl) well... I really think.... I really think you did great with them.... and I am so happy that you learned something.... and I am impressed that you learned so much more from Sidapa... Hala.. and those brave mortals than your own father...
Aman: (sadly looks down) (feels guilty) I am sorry father.... for running away..... (tears fall on his face)
Saidon: oh Aman.... (wipes Aman's tears) I am impressed of you doing that because.... it made me interested to know what you want that made you run away? what is there that you want to be in???? I will listen....
Sinaya: (smiles watching Aman and Saidon talk)
Aman: (shakes his head) this is what I want.... to be what I am meant to be..... a king... a real guardian of this sea... any water forms... a guide for the lost ones in the sea......
Saidon: but why not be that for everybody and not just in the sea???
Aman: (eyes widens at Saidon)
Saidon: (immediately grabs and throws the pearl away from Aman)
*the pearl floats away from the bedroom*
Aman: (watches the pearl floating away) father! what did you do?? why did you throw that????
Saidon: how ironic to want to stay here and watch them right??? why not follow the pearl and let it show where you want to be???
Aman: (smiles slightly at Saidon) are you sure father? where does it lead? does a pearl do that????
Sinaya: (smiles at Aman) go and see it for yourself.....
Aman: (nods happily) I will... I really will follow where it would lead me.... (immediately runs away) (left)
Sinaya: (smiles at Saidon) I am so proud of you...
Saidon: better become a good father will there's time... (smiles down)

At the old Dagatan tribe at the middle of an empty area, Bulan, Sidapa, Hala and Liksi were together still packing up to leave in the afternoon.......

Liksi: (approaches everyone) I am back... (feels tired)
Hala: (notices Liksi feeling tired) ugh hey Liksi.. where are the others? why are you the only one back here???
Liksi: (sits on a wooden log) I got lost on the way because the 3 boys and Lakam seem to be having a good talk while hunting for food.....
Bulan: (walks out of the tent) I am sorry for you haha.. (approaches everyone) but I am proud that Lakas is doing everything to get to know his brothers...... (smiles slightly down) and I really am happy to be one of the people who helped those 3 long lost brothers reunite.... (sits on an empty log)
Sidapa: (silently listens to Bulan)
Hala: (nods) so... what do you think would happen Bulan?? you think he will finally have a reason to not be part of the Batumbakal tribe anymore??? to not aim for the crown??? and instead... just go and live with his real brothers....
Sidapa: (looks annoyed at Hala) Hala... what you said was okay until it wasn't... do not make Bulan look like he is not a real brother when he did everything to love Lakas......
Hala: (feels guilty) oh I am... (takes a deep breath) I am sorry....
Bulan: it is fine.. I really do understand it.... and who am I to be greedy against the real brothers right?? I did my best and me and Lakas successfully became fine......
Liksi: but you know what Bulan... (approaches and sits next to Bulan) if he really does chose to be with his brothers.... I am  pretty sure that doesn't mean he will forget you... and... (hugs Bulan) I am here... always been close since kids...
Bulan: (smiles widely at Liksi) oh Liksi... you are making me emotional.... (feels emotional) (hugs Liksi)
Sidapa: (happily watches Bulan and Liksi hugging each other)
*a pearl suddenly floats in the air towards Sidapa, Bulan, Liksi and Hala*
*the pearl shines and glows brightly*
*everyone notices the pearl*
Sidapa: huh? (looks confused at the pearl) why is this pearl floating??? (touches the pearl)
*the pearl sparkles from Sidapa's touch*
Hala: that is a pearl from Aman's family.... what is it doing here??
Bulan: wait... (takes his pearl out of his pocket) (notices the pearl glowing) (smiles)
Liksi: (looks confused at the pearl glowing) what are those Bulan? why do you have one???
Bulan: (stands up) (walks closer to the floating pearl) (looks at both pearls glowing) as what glowing stuffs are expected to do.....
Sidapa: (seriously looks at the 2 glowing pearls)

This is so magical and I am so happy we have episodes closing Aman's arc....
