As they arrived , the sun was setting. Both of them slowly open the back car door, taking out their father's body. They took and put it in the sofa the had in their living room.
"Take the kit.", Revalina said.
Sanexia went and took out the medical kit from the cabinet as Revalina took two towels and water inside a bowl container. They silently open their father's clothing and left boxers there. Dipping the towels inside the water , they started to clean up his body. Tears dried as their eyes went sore.
Rubbing every inch of the bruise hoping they would just go away.They fear facing to their father's face, but they had to. They forced themselves to look at his face once and felt really broken. It was just hours before that they left him on his car. Everything was fine when they left. Revalina stood up from the sofa and head to his bedroom.
Revalina took a set of clothing from his father's wardrobe. It was a really formal clothes. The clothes which he used on his wedding with their beautiful mother. Their picture was still on their desk as she touched another picture consisting of the whole family with her sister and her.
Sanexia , waiting for her sister to come down, she took off her father's necklace which a wedding ring of their mother attached to it, and took off his wedding ring and held it in. The ring was just a simple silver with a simple stroke carvings.
Revalina then walk down and both of them put his clothes on. Both of them stared at their father, the face which always energizes them every morning, protect them in every moment and raised them not only as a father but also filling in their mother figure, his face is peaceful.
"Sister..." , Revalina turned her head watching Sanexia slowly opens both of her hand , revealing their parents wedding rings.
Revalina took her mother's wedding ring , taking it off from the necklace and wear it in her middle finger. Sanexia watching her sister's action followed by putting another ring into the necklace and wore it.
They went outside and searcv the biggest rock they could find and carve out their father's name, 'Johansen'. Both of them pick it up with all their strength and place it beside their house which views the beautiful scenery far from madness .
It was now night and they did not sleep at all , they start digging and digging the ground, until it was deep enough to put their father into. It was sunrise when they stopped digging.
They then took their father and put him beside the hole. It was the last time that they look at his face. Memorizing all of his features one last time before burying him deep into the earth. Their hearts were so broken , tears dried and can't even flood anymore , red noses and hopeless heart. They slowly pick him up and put him down in the hole.
They starts burying him until it was done did they ran out of breath and went inside.
"What do we do now...", Sanexia sat on the counter , looking down as she ask her sister.
"Tomorrow we leave , take all things , take a note what we lack , all weapons , we'll find the mad dog shelter.", she said walking upstair and took knives and daggers , then walking out from the house.
"Where are you going?" , Sanexia tries to walk as she watches her sister walks out of the house but her legs gave up as Revalina stood infront of the old car.
"Find more information about the shelter. Lock the doors , don't let anyone come inside. I'm out.", she opened the door and starts the engine.
"Don't go!"
"No! It's our only chance now! We need to find a home , this house is nothing without dad in it! It will only bring us down!", she screamed , eyes wide as she felt betraying but it was a fact that both knew.
"Please be safe! I can't afford to lose you too!" , Sanexia yelled.
"WE WILL NOT DIE TODAY! LOCK THE DOORS!" , she screamed and then she drove away to the market place.
As Sanexia watches her drive, she closed the doors and locks it. She slowly retained herself, taking a glass of water and drank whole. She then took two backpacks out and went upstairs, with lack of strength packing five sets of clothing for her and her sister.
Opening the second wardrobe revealing all their weapons; AR-15 A2 (rifle), 2 guns of Colt 1911 (hand gun) , silver carved daggers, M16A1 (rifle) and bullets , knuckles , black matte bow carved with gold linings and silver arrows, two swords and a whip.
Shoving all into the backpack as she went to her father's room. Watching her family photo , she took it out of the frame and put it in the front part of the backpack. Packing bottles of water and foods they stored into a bag and then placed it in their backpacks.
Later on she wait for her sister, heart beating loudly yet her eyes starts to shut down. As numbness crawled under her skin, her body fell into the couch where her father had laid before, curling into a ball.
"Father....", then she fell into a deep sleep.
