Rio closed his eyes and gusts of wind
resuscitate his existence. Rio looked around Kaori's room, a glance of her
I felt like I was dreaming. Rio rubbed his tears, he changed clothes
his shirt was in the black shirt he used to wear in college.
After washing his face in the sink, Rio came out
from Kaori's room. Everyone was ready to go to the funeral. Rio was standing
next to Jodi who was preparing to lift Kaori's coffin. He replaced Jodi
lifting keranda Kaori.
15-minute drive to the cemetery,
Rio felt his body very light. He did not hear the voices in
surrounding. He simply walked to where his steps took him.
Everything was so fast that Rio realized himself
it's already piled up next to Kaori's headstone. His hands and feet were full of mud
the Kaori cemetery. He rubbed the headstone with his dirty hands.
Seeing that the tombstone was so dirty because of his actions, Rio wiped the mud onto his shirt and
cleaning mud on Kaori's tombstone.
Rio was not crying anymore. He began to hear voices
katty's crying next to her and also the sobs of papa and Katty's mom
it's still there. Alex and Mia pull Rio to wake up, they already have to
going home and it is impossible to leave Rio alone near Kaori's grave.
Mia : “Help her, Rio. Let her be happy
there.”
Alex : “Come, we go home, son.”
Rio followed both his parents despite his steps
it felt so hard leaving Kaori alone there.
