To the one who has a good heart it will come out in the end, even though they always show fake attitude it will show naturally. Some people hide their real attitude to hide what is inside them, to hide those secrets, to hide their weaknesses, and to hide their feelings.
And to all people who keep hiding inside the cage and keep covering their real self, sometimes that person is the most precious and naturally beautiful. The people who didn't show kindness to them, they didn't allow it to enter in their life, and those people who naturally show cares for them is the one who allowed to enter in their life.
It was Yohana's last day on the hill, Marriel did nothing but put perfume and make-up on it. Yohana is literally beautiful, but no one criticizes that because for them Yohana is ugly because she has no children.
"Poor Yohana, if only they knew. They might think differently of Yohana." Marriel said softly while observing Yohana.
This family really believes the beauty of the woman is defended if you have a husband or wife and have a kids, but if you died all alone and never experienced having a kids or husband— it means you're being cursed or ugly forever.
"How about me? It's a good thing they're not my relatives!" Marriel said while observing the people on Yohana's hill.
Disappointment is visible on their faces.
"What if that man who has worse attitude died, but I hope it doesn't come true. Will his parents hate him too?
There are many traditions that are done while there are people praying and crying. Because the family of his client believes that when there is a lot of crying, the soul arrives quickly in heaven.
"I don't believe there is a heaven, but if there is— she doesn't belong in heaven." Marriel said sadly to herself.
Suddenly, winds blow differently. Marriel noticed the dark aura of the whole place. She noticed that man with worse attitude looks to have a panic attack, she came to him immediately and asked him if he's fine.
"Are you okay? Does something hurt you?" Marriel said? Nobody noticed the changes of the whole place, it became darker as if in a horror scene.
"Please get my nebulizer!" The man said to Marriel.
"Okay!" Marriel replied.
And Marriel reached for the nebulizer, at that moment Marriel noticed that the dark smoke was getting bigger. The man approached Marriel and spoke calmly.
"Did you see that?" He asked and then pointed to Marriel the dark smoke outside. They heard Yohana's voice.
"My son, keep my son alive!" Yohana's voice said.
"Keep his son alive?" The man with the antipathetic plug said in surprise.
"Where are they?" Marriel whispered in the wind.
"Santa Cristina." Yohana's voice said. After Yohana answered, Marriel immediately pulled the man while still wearing the nebulizer.
"Where's your car! The black smoke only gives a warning once. Hurry up while there's still time." Marriel said, the man immediately pointed to the car and they got into his black sports car.

Sometimes, it's hard to believe those things that impossible to get in real life. But in the place that full of mystery it was nothing impossible. The dark smoke who get talk and giving warning is a blessing? Or it will give dangerous to those people who believe in it?
Owen is now with the ugly girl. He still couldn't believe that this girl had followed him. But, he couldn't understand what his cousin's voice was saying.
"She has a child? But how? She doesn't even tell me she has a child?" Owen asked himself one question after another.
"Maybe she's afraid when others find out that she had a child even though she's not married yet. I know that Chinese families are very sensitive about such matters." Said the ugly woman.
"Why do you know?" Owen said to the woman.
"Why can't people like me know about your tradition and beliefs?" The ugly woman said to Owen.
"Not at all," he answered with a frown. When they reached the boundary of Santa Cristina, the nervousness crept through Owen's system. Even more, he remembered what Hector Miguel told him.
"Is it true that I will die, when I go to Santa Cristina?" Owen said to the girl with him.
"Why? Do you want to die?" The woman said to him.
Owen closed his eyes in annoyance and clenched his fist. If it wasn't a girl, he might have hit her. But because the person he was talking to was a woman, he hesitated.
He is not quick to believe, but it is also difficult for Owen. Even more, there seem to be a lot of weirdos in the Santa Cristina area.
"Last question," he said and hung up on what he was going to say.
"Is it true that anyone who is sick will die, when they go to this place. Answer me, because if that is true, my life is dangerous because I have asthma." Owen said to the woman, but she only answered him with a shrug.
"What's wrong with? I'm asking you, because I'm very curious. And I just wanna live longer than I think." Owen said this but the woman just laughed at him.
"You're so quick to convince me, if you don't want to come here you can say no, and if you're a coward don't push it anymore. I know this will cause you to have an asthma attack, so if I were you, just accept it you are afraid of something. Instead of pretending to be brave, even if the truth is not really. I just want to tell you that there is truth in the barber stories, there is no such thing. Because all the superstitions and folk tales here have truth and are not just made up anyone who wants to scare. Being me, I saw them and I will never forget that." The ugly woman said and Owen felt even more scared.
