FINALE

"Ahhh! Ahhh! Ahhh!" Fernan screamed louder and rushed to Shola. The pen knife was taken out of his pocket.

Alexis can see this clearly: he will not let the woman he loves get hurt; no matter what sin she has committed, his love is still dominant in his heart.

"Sholaaa!" he shouted.

Shola's gaze turned to him, so she couldn't avoid Fernan's rush.

Shola felt the pen knife buried in her body; it was near her heart.

"I told you I would kill you!" And then Fernan grabbed the mask.

But Shola didn't let it last and pushed Fernan hard.

Fernan hit a tree.

Even though Shola has a wound, it's nothing to her; she's strong because of the mask.

He ran to Fernan to end it.

Alexis ran to Shola; he saw the blood coming out of her.

"Shola, enough!" Alexis said.

Shola stopped a meter away from Fernan. But her anger was there; no one could stop her.

"Ahhh!" Shola shouted as she waved at Fernan. Alexis suddenly intervened, so he's the only one to hit her.

"Sho... shola!"

"Alexis..." seemed to pour cold water on Shola.

Alexis hugged her. "I love you, Shola!"

"No! Alexis?"

Fernan saw the shotgun and picked it up.

"Now he's going to die by your own hand, isn't it painful? Shola Monticello, because you love him! Come together!" The shotgun was attached to her.

Shola pulled out the knife from Alexis' body. Before the bullet went off.

Shola threw the knife at Fernan. The blade was straight to his forehead.

Shola didn't care to see Fernan's body lying on the ground. Seeing Alexis bloody "Alexis..." She backed away.

Alexis tried to stand up, but he fell to his knees, but he stood again. Every time Shola steps back, he steps forward.

"Alexis, I'm sorry!" Her tears flowed.

"It's not your fault, my love."

As Shola continued to retreat, they were already at the cliff. Shola has only one thing in mind: for Alexis to live. And she prayed that he would be happy and build a happy family. Because she was going back home, it was known if she would live. You will live, Alexis." Shola removed the mask; she could feel the pain from the wound, and she felt that the body would give up at any moment. She waited for Alexis to approach her.

Alexis immediately hugged her.

Shola put the mask on Alexis wound, and it immediately stuck to it.

"Goodbye, I love you, Alexis!" She pushed him so that he wouldn't be with her while her body fell to the cliff.

"Sholaaa!" Alexis shouted when she saw that she had fallen. Alexis didn't waste a moment. He also jumped off the cliff.

"Alexis." Shola's eyes widened when she saw him following her.

Alexis made his body heavier so that he could match her. When he reached her, he hugged her.

"Alexis, why?"

"I love you; we will die together."

Shola started crying.

Alexis touched Shola's face. He smiled and captured her lips.

Shola kisses him back, and they are kissing in the air. The mask is slowly disappearing. Because the blood that sticks to it has a clean personality, and its heart loves it purely.

As they fell to the ground, the ground suddenly moved.

IN THE TRIBE.

"What's going on? Why is the ground moving, Anig?"

"It means something, Amina."

"Mother, Father!" Their son was afraid to approach them.

They left their house. Everyone in the tribe came out.

"We are free!" said the oldest of the tribe.

"What do you mean?" asked Anig, the old man.

"Everything is back to normal, Anig!" The curse of the mask is gone."

"You mean Shola is here?"

"Yes, Anig."

"Mother, let's go see sister now," Abet said.

Amina smiled at her son. Yes."

Shola and Alexis were wondering what was happening. It only took a few minutes for the ground to level above where they came from. And they saw Fernan's body.

"Sister, Shola. Sister Shola!" shouted Abet."

They turned around.

"Abet," Shola said happily, seeing him running towards them. It follows the people.

Even if there was wonder and question in Alexis's mind, seeing that he did not ask what wonder he had witnessed, he would just bury it in oblivion, and what was important for him was that he was with the woman he loved.

"Sister Shola!" He hugged her very happily. Finally, you're back, Sister!"

Alexis was just looking at them when Abet noticed Alexis. Sister, Shola, who is he?" he snorted at the man.

"He's your older brother, Alexis."

Alexis smiled. How are you, Abet?"

"It's good, Big Brother!"

"Welcome to Monticello, Abet."

"Sister, what is that?"

"He said you were at Monticello."

People came to them.

"Shola?" Anig and Amina said.

"Fathe, Mother." Shola hugged them.

"Thank you, Shola," said the people.

Shola smiles at them.

The tribe has changed, everyone has gone back to the way they were before, and everyone has an easy way out of the mountain. It used to take several days before you could get out of the tribe; now it's like one nation.

They saw the dead bodies, and people didn't ask any more questions.

Shola looked at her arm. She thought that the mask was coming back to her arm because Alexis hugged her, but it was gone. She felt her wound, and it disappeared earlier while he and Alexis hugged. The young man's blood stuck to his wound, so it healed immediately.

Alexis also felt her wound; he was surprised because he didn't feel any pain. When he looked at it, there was no sign of a wound on his stomach. He looked at Shola.

Shola smiled at Alexis. Because of the mask," she said.

Shola no longer asked the people why the tribe was at the bottom of the cliff a hundred years later. Shola was right to know that the mask belonged to a woman who had evil intentions and was a plague on the tribe. Before, it was condemned to death by the old people of the tribe. The woman also cursed the mask she was wearing. And the curse is that whoever gets the mask that has been hidden in the cave for a hundred years will also become evil, especially if there is a bad past. The mask can only be removed if it falls on a good person. Alexis is a good person. So the mask completely disappeared.

Alexis called the precinct to collect Fernan's body.

The citizens of Monticello still have no questions about what happened to Fernan Morela's family. Everything is back to normal, and people are happy now that there is no more fear and dread in their faces and hearts.

Days and months passed.

The Monticello mansion has been repaired here, where the family that Shola recognized lives. They still go to the tribe that is now Shola Village, named after her.

A night at the Monticello mansion Alexis and her mother and sister visit often so they can get to know each other.

They had a happy dinner and were chatting. Especially Abet and Amber.

Alexis' mother and sister said goodbye. He stayed because he and Shola had something to talk about.

"Ehemmm! So, now everything is fine; can we talk something, Shola?" At that moment, they were in the garden.

"What are we talking about, Alexis?"

"A family, a happy family." Alexis smiled at what he said.

"Okay, like, what if we have a happy family?"

"Hmmm, like we have ten children."

Shola's eyes widen. Ten? That's a lot!" she complained.

"A lot, no, how about we make a dozen so that a lot, can you?"

"Oh, you!" but she was smiling.

Alexis hugged Shola and whispered.

"SHOLA MONTICELLO, will you marry me?"

Now that everything was settled and Alexis understood her and what she did, they buried it. Absolutely yes, Alexis," she answered.

"Yes!" Alexis hugged her so tightly.

"I love you, Shola!"

"I love you too, Alexis!"

Amina, Anig, and their kids see them and have a smile on their faces. especially Amina and Anig.

Alexis caressed Shola's cheek, making her feel how much he loved her. After that, he kissed her.

"Mother, what are they doing?" the siblings asked innocently.

Anig and Amina looked at each other.

"Come on, you've gone to your rooms; it's late," Amina said to the children.

"There is no answer!" Abet said because he wanted to know what Shola and Alexis were doing.

Amina's eyes widened at her son. Come on. You will find out in time."

They entered their room together.

Whatever happened before, they have buried it in oblivion. And no one will ever mention the bad incident.

Shola and Alexis. Travel around the world for Alexis to show Shola. What's outside of Monticello? And to have knowledge about anything in the world.
