Love doesnt kills
... his love for the importance of his nation. Maria did not object but to make sacrifices to. She believes that if he is meant for her, they will meet up finally. On 15th August 1942, when Maria was asleep, she heard riot from outside her mansion. The Japanese had entered their region. Mr. Richardson grabbed her daughter and they headed to the basement. Down the basement, there was a car ready to take off. “Dad, where are we going? We can’t just leave like that. How about Megat?” she asked her father. Without even replying, they headed to their own hangar. She saw some of her father’s people waiting for them and all of them wanted to escape from the Japanese. The entire incident went in a flash that Maria was still gasping to absorb everything one by one.After a few moments of thinking, some tears dropped from her eyes. She never cried before as she has never been hurt. In her heart is filled with lust towards her father. She would imagine that he could be so mean to her. According to the route they are taking, it is clearly seen that they are heading towards Britain. Every single moment on the private jet was spend on imagining what could happen to Megat.

As usual Maria had a hard time convincing her father why they should return to Tanah Melayu after his factory had been badly destroyed in the war. Maria never gives up. She made her father choose. To have a daughter who will not talk to him for the rest of her life or to let her meet her true love. Mr. Richardson had no choice but to let her go. He himself had not seen her daughter ever smile after they move back to Britain. All he wanted was her happiness and he finally regrets for acting so harsh on her daughter’s true love. She was back in Penang, searching up and down for Megat. Her instinct told her that he is still alive. She tried visiting to his grandmother’s house but the house was empty. She was starting to feel strange. It cannot be. She stayed there for nearly a year and a half now. As an English teacher, she ...
