CHAPTER 45

　　PERCIE

　　It had been a while since I came back to visit her. I had been dwelling with grief, pain, and regret of losing her. I was still in denial until I found out I wasn’t alone anymore—so was Larkin.

　　I cleaned up dried leaves on her grave and placed lilies just right beside other lilies. My brows knitted while I took a seat.Who came to visit Emma??These flowers still looked fresh.

　　“I’m a bad brother, aren’t I? I missed you so much, Em. I know it's been a while. I haven’t come here often, it's not because I don’t love anymore or I have forgotten you. I just can’t accept the fact that you’re not here with me anymore. It still hurts. I’m so sorry.” I pulled one of the callas out of the vase.

　　“You’re beautiful as this calla. You’re pure, always faithful to the people you cared about. I wish we had more time together so that you had the chance to tell me the special guy you ever loved. Did you ever plan on telling me about him? Why didn't you tell me, Emma?”
