17 Shattered Hopes(2/2)
At the same time, the Hosnian system was showing a strange spectacle to all its inhabitans who saw the sky. It had became of an intense red color not matter if it was morning or night.
- "Mother..."- said Genti after finishing to send the message to his mother and sister.
- "I love you..."- said Rebar and Aima while hugging each other.
- "Calm down everyone... let's eat while enjoying the spectacle"- said Nalah with a comforting voice to all her family.
- "Just wait for my vengeance"- said Torm who was asking for another drink.
- "Yahoo! Ambassador Linaki..."- shouted Kristah who was already drunk.
The red light engulfed all of them in an instant and they knew no more. Their stories and futures were destroyed in an instant as well with the planets in which they lived. Love, hate, revenge, ambitions, hope, good and evil... all was vanished and forgotten in an instant.

Kalei Dana received the holoprojector from the messenger and quickly called her daughter Aurine to listen to it together. After clicking on the button of start the figure of his son who was taller and more mature appeared in front of them. He beamed with happiness and confidence and his voice was tender and with the most hopeful tone.
"Mom,
I finally did it. The money I'm sending is more than enough to pay off all our debts. Do it immediately and also separate something for the dowry of Aurine. Invest the rest in the store you always wanted so you can have one of the many dreams you have finally realized.
I'll return in some months to finally be reunited as the family we always be. I'll finish some things here in Cardota and then I'll head back to at your side from where I should never have left. I look forward to hug you and kiss you once more.
Kisses to Aurine. Tell her his big bro will bring presents.
I love you two.
Your son and brother Genti."
- "He's returning!"- shouted Aurine who started to jump and dance all around and then she hugged her mother.
The old woman smiled while crying next to her daughter. His son had saved them and with the money he had sent, they would be able to change their lives forever. However, all that was nothing in comparison with the promise of seeing his beloved son again. Kalei Dana placed the comm in her chest and blessed his son in the distance, waiting anxiously for the day when her son would finally return.
