CHAPTER 1

It has been more than two years since the last incidents related to Arthur and his dark deeds. All these events were outdated and no one remembered them anymore. Conversations related to crime and the abduction of girls eventually subsided. Other owners have replaced cafes and restaurants that once belonged to Arthur. The Oriental Fairy Tale has been closed since the day of his death. Even the Sultan, who I had to go through the terrible moments of her life in this restaurant, sincerely regretted the fate that befell the «Oriental Fairy Tale». – Don’t be sad. The Eastern fairy tale is outdated. It ended with you. Soon you will have another fairy tale.

– What do you mean?

– «Don’t forget you’re my assistant. I have already started my medical practice, and yours will start soon.

– «I’ve got plenty of time.

– «That’s what you think. Time does not fly noticeably.

– Yes. I did not notice.

– That is what I am talking about. That you do not notice anything.

– What do you mean?

– The fact that it has been three years and you have not noticed.

– «And what does that mean?»

– Nothing. Simply. After my practice, I will start working days, and you will come to my practice.

– Great!

– What does it mean?

– It means that it is great when you know what is going to happen next and there is nothing to worry about. Amir did not respond to this statement. The guy and the girl fell silent together and each thought about his own. Amir reflected on the fact that he actually always decided everything for two, he believed that he was simply necessary for the Sultan as a support and thought that she liked it. Sultana actually liked it, and she never objected. Perhaps it was a continuation of the family law. In Amir’s family, his father always decided everything, and his mother always agreed with all the decisions made. Sultana loved Amir very much and his decisions were like a normal course of life for her. She just lived, was happy and basked in Amir’s love.

This conversation made Amir think, maybe he is wrong? Maybe the Sultan does not like the life he has chosen for her. He did not bring up the subject today. And I decided to postpone it until better times. Sultana did not think about it, she was quite satisfied with her married life and the choice of her profession.

The family life of Amir and Sultana Wangrat began in Cambodia. Amir was of rather noble blood, and he could not afford himself and his wife to live in the city of Poipet. This city is located in the east of Cambodia, on the border with Thailand, and is one of the important points of border communication between the two countries. This city is also considered the gambling capital of Southeast Asia. The streets of the city are full of colorful lights of gambling houses and numerous casinos. This business is rapidly developing in the border area, since it is banned in neighboring Thailand. Poipet is very crowded and is an unsafe place at night. Here you can see a lot of begging children, beggars and homeless. These people have no documents, as well as no official citizenship; they are only engaged in speculating in goods transported across the border and begging. A casino and many gambling houses have been built at a distance of 200 meters between the border with Thailand and the checkpoint. For Amir, living in this city was simply unthinkable. It was decided to suddenly move to Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, to continue his studies and start a new life. All family members approved this decision, and Ahmed managed to quickly sell his old house. Sultana started her first academic year at a prestigious educational institution Mahidol. The confluence of life circumstances turned out as well as possible in favor of Sultana. There was no point or opportunity to stay in Moscow. Amir completed the transfer and continued his studies; his medical practice began in one of the prestigious clinics.

The love of Amir and Sultana was envied by many, but this couple was invincible, she did not notice the envious, and did not let the separated people near her. A new life in a new home, took away the painful past, making the present happy. The same could be said about their training, it started from scratch, but it was worth it. The luxurious life in Bangkok forced the Sultan to forget about the painful past and the poverty left in Poipet. Bangkok is one of the most amazing tourist destinations in the world. Bangkok is the port and economic center of Thailand. The city is located on the eastern bank of the Chao Phraya River near the Gulf of Thailand. The Gulf of Thailand of the South China Sea is the entire eastern coast of Thailand – Pattaya, Sattahip, Rayong, Hua Hin, Koh Samui, Koh Chang, Koh Sichang, Koh Lan, Trat Province. Thailand is being washed two Pacific and Indian oceans, two Andaman and South China seas, on different coasts of which the most famous resorts of the Kingdom in the world are located. Bangkok, washed by the waters of the Pacific Ocean. Pattaya and Hua Hin are located on the mainland of the Kingdom, with a drier climate, not affected by tropical storms. Bangkok’s nightlife is bustling: many clubs, discos. This nightlife reminded Amir of Moscow in some way, but he did not talk about it aloud, afraid to remind Sultana of her painful moments associated with this city.

Vina’s life did not turn out as well as it seemed too many who once knew her. Having been married to a lawyer for no more than a year, she could not fall in love with this man and over time, life without love turned into a nightmare for her, and ended in divorce. Her family life did not start in the best way, it all started with the termination of pregnancy, which this girl got from Arthur. At its core, the Fault itself was an unhappy person. She was born and grew up in a poor family, then not so prosperous love, which so crossed out her life, left an imprint on her family. She just had to get rid of this child, and no one knew about it except herself. This act was her mortal secret. Vina simply could not tell about her situation to the lawyer who took her as his lawful wife, and even more so the days spent in prison, they undermined her health. All these blows of fate-accumulated anger in this girl, evil grew in her every day and Guilt decided to take revenge. Only to whom and for what, she has not yet decided. To some extent, it could be said that a monster had awakened in this woman and it was asking to come out to destroy everything around.

Over time, Vina managed to sue her first husband’s apartment back, not without the help of a lawyer, and she moved to her lair. This apartment was originally a den, and the monster in the form of a woman returned to its place. Vina stood on the balcony in the pose of Napoleon with her legs wide apart and looked horizontally, not noticing the beauties of evening Moscow. – I will start from the bottom. I will build everything that I had to destroy. In the name of our love, I will create even more and even scarier than it was. Vina decided in honor of her late husband to create his business from scratch, and take revenge on all those who prevented their happiness. If we consider this situation in detail, then two people were to blame for their misfortune with Arthur – this is Amir and Sultana.

No one remembered about the Guilt. Everyone believed that this poor girl was one of Arthur’s victims, and no one betrayed the significance of this incomprehensible connection. Guilt returned to her and Arthur’s apartment two years after his death. Initially, she was afraid to cross the threshold of this dwelling, but after making an effort, she went into this apartment and felt a taste of revenge. Vina did not consider herself guilty, for reasons unknown to herself. She believed that their happiness was destroyed by strangers who envied her and hated Arthur. Vina had completely forgotten about after the premature death of his sister, this tragic event faded into the background. The head of this monster girl was occupied with the irrevocable departure of her lover, whom she killed herself and this stigma lay on her soul. Feelings of guilt were still strong, and therefore, to some extent, this girl had a split personality, one-half loved Arthur, the other hated him with all her heart and soul. Vina understood that it was he who killed her sister and could not forgive him for it. Another part of her mind defended him, saying it had to be done. The guilt was going crazy. At night she heard the cry of her unborn child, this act was killing her from the inside. She had no one to share it with. She had no friends; it was in these difficult moments that she missed her sister. The walls of this apartment reminded her of the happy moments of her life, and at the same time about how it all ended. This apartment has undergone cosmetic repairs, a complete change of design and interior has done their job, and Vina entered this apartment as a full-fledged host. Vina herself did not feel like a murderer, she just felt empty, lonely, and defenseless. This emptiness was caused by the lack of love; it was Arthur’s love that was sorely lacking. She felt safe with him. – How little time God has given us for happiness. Why is that? Vina was sitting on the sofa and looking at the tasteful renovation.

The monster girl was completely ready to start reviving everything that was created by Arthur, and so ruthlessly ruined. This «monster» understood that she was involved in this, and her first action was to find a partner. Vina needed a second Jamal, she understood that she could not cope alone, and she just needed a second person. That is just where to get it? By going over to the head of all the people who are imprinted in her memory, her choice stopped at the bartender who worked in the «Oriental Fairy Tale». This bartender had the same Arab roots as Arthur, and now lived in Morocco. It was not difficult for Vina to find this man, and he gladly made contact with this woman.

Said did not take long to wait and flew in a few days after receiving the call. Their meeting took place not far from the still closed restaurant. – Arthur and I did not have a long, but a happy fairy tale ended here, in this institution. That is where we will start, with this institution. You and I need to revive the «Oriental Fairy Tale». This restaurant, like many other establishments, was closed for one simple reason, quarantine reigned in the country, and such establishments as a night restaurant simply could not work.

– When do we plan to open?

– For the New two thousand twenty-third year.

– «As you command, my lady.» I am ready to serve you. Vina smiled happily when she heard these words.

– Who else is with us? Do we still have people dedicated to our cause?

– There are a couple more people. And these people will bring more people accordingly.

– That is great. I need to fly home to Indonesia; I have not been there since my sister’s funeral.

– Should I fly with you?

– No. Stay here and start doing things. We will keep in touch. Vina ventured on the trip home, her heart creaking. She herself did not know how everything would happen. These incidents and a long separation distanced her from her parents, and she was already flying not only to see them, but also to find the people she needed. The wine arrived without warning. A lot has changed in these three years of her absence. Vina’s parents, despite their age, have waged a lot; have become not crowded, and not verbose. The older brother brought his girlfriend to the house, and she lived with them, he thought that this would somehow brighten up the mourning in the house. The parents were glad of such a revival, but the mourning continued and it was noticeable. The arrival of Vina brought a noticeable revival, and it seemed that the sadness did not recede for long. Nirmala literally clung to her daughter and did not leave her side for a minute.

– How you have lost weight. What happened to you? Vina could not tell her mother everything, and she wanted so much. But she understood that this could not be done and she had to be silent. Vina’s mother understood that something was wrong with her daughter’s soul, and she so wanted to know what was wrong with her. It was at this moment that they both missed Diana, but they were silent about it, and sat hugging each other. Mansur immediately realized that something was wrong with his sister and in the evening, he went to Vina’s room.

– Tell me what happened to you?

– Why did you decide that?

– I can see that something is depressing you.

– Maybe it is, I cannot tell you everything right now. I just feel bad.

– Okay, fine. I will not pressure you. Know that you have us, and we are always there. My girlfriend Sarima, she is very nice. You will make friends with her.

– I know. Vina smiled sweetly. Thank you. Mansur quietly left the room and Vina was left alone. Nothing has changed in the room since she left. The same furnishings, the same furniture, the same mourning. It seemed to her that she had come to a wake. Most recently, she was in the apartment where she killed Arthur with her own hands, and now she found herself in her own home, where the spirit of her late sister, whom Arthur killed, dwells. It was hard for Vina, a heavy task fell on her shoulders, which she took on herself loaded up. Besides, there was a heavy burden on her heart that she could not tell anyone about. And this black spot, or you could even say the stigma that was considered self-defense in the murder left an imprint on her reputation. Vina did not notice how she turned into a black creature. Everyone noticed it, except herself. She looked at her sister’s empty bed, «it all started here, our happiness with Arthur ended here. It was here that our love was born, and died at the same time. I will resurrect everything. And that will be my secret. My revenge. Vina did not notice how she fell asleep. When she woke up, she did not understand where she was, so strong was her sleep, which did her good. Glancing at her watch, she realized it was already noon.

– We did not wake you up. You were sleeping so soundly. Vina had not yet recovered from her sleep and was looking at her mother’s aged face.

– Mom, I am so glad to see you. Nirmala brought coffee into the room. «How did you know I was awake?»

– I am your mom. You always woke up at this time when you were a girl. These words painfully echoed in the soul of Guilt, but she did not show it.

– Have I aged so much?
