The Final Wish (English Version)

Chapter 18

"I chose her because I loved her with all my heart and she gave her heart to me," Professor Diwa said.

"Well that's too bad, you can't have her anymore," Chloe replied.

"What do you mean," Professor Diwa asked.

"You honestly don't know or you're just saying that because you're talking to me," Chloe said.

"No," Professor Diwa said. "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Well that's too bad," Chloe crossed. "It's better off that you don't know. You lived a good life, and so did she. I bet you can get another girl, possibly better than her. I mean, with that face and personality, who could deny you! That little pious and conservative girl did not even resist!"

Chloe stood up from her seat. She was about to return to her cell, until she remembered something to say to Professor Diwa.

"And to put it this way before I eventually forget," Chloe said as she turned back. "We were only best friends because: we were co-teachers at Ferrydell University and we both share the same circumstances. We are both adopted. Good bye Dave. I hope you find someone new to love."

The next day, Eloisa and Rose finally went on with their normal lives. They can finally go on with the search without any obstacles in their way, unfortunately, where can they get any more clues.

"Rose," Eloisa exclaimed. "What now? We don't have any more sources of clues. The diary did not even say any other place to search. It's the end! Even if we read the diary all over again, we can't find anything. The poem is useless. The couple is dead! We might have brought justice to the deaths, but we cannot turn time back. There's no more hope!"

Eloisa tends to be pessimistic at hopeless situation. She had this trait since she was in elementary school, and she carried it to her young adulthood.

"I know," Rose exclaimed. "I know!"

"What should we do," Eloisa asked.

And they saw Professor Diwa passing by with a pile of test papers. He appears to be struggling to carry it to his office.

"Should we help him," Rose asked. Eloisa sighed.

"Yes," Eloisa answered hesitantly. "He helped us after all." Eloisa and Rose then followed the young professor on his way to his office. They managed to catch up to him moments later.

"Professor, would you like some help," Eloisa asked.

"No, dear," Professor Diwa said as he carry on. "It's alright. I do not want to bother you."

"Come on, sir," Rose said. "You are struggling. Don't be so prideful."

A memory triggered at the professor's memory and it seems that this memory let him agree to the girls' offer.

"You sound like... never mind...." Professor Diwa said. "You may help me."

And then the girls helped their professor carry the pile of papers to his office. It was a long walk, but the girls were fine with it. When they got there, they placed the papers on the table.

"Thank you for helping me," Professor Diwa said.

"Thank you for helping us too," Eloisa said. "Now, we can go on with our lives normally and continue what we started."

"And you may now go back on your search," Professor Diwa continued. "I must go. I have a class."

Professor Diwa left the girls at his office. He seems to be in a rush to go to class.
