With a deep sigh, Sei threw his head back and stared at the sky. After staring at it until his eyes felt blurry, he placed his arm across his eyes and covered it. It has been a year since they lost him… but the pain was still like a fresh cut. It still bled and was yet to fully stop. Sei sometimes wonder if it would ever stop. None of them, especially Hinari could still move on. That was why Sei was hoping that one day, things will be better, most especially for Hinari. All of them prayed that she would somehow be granted that blessed numbness – more for her sake, than anything else.
"I didn't think you'd finally appear, Chen." Sei turned to his side and looked at the still silent and sombre Yu Chen.
