303 A Place In Your Life

Two days later...

The funeral for Lilith was in the morning but Ru had stood before her grave till noon without any intention to leave. The weather was very pleasant on this day. It wasn't exactly sunny but neither was it cloudy. Perhaps nature was just as confused as Ru's inner feelings.

The only person who had been standing not far from her was Zhang Han. Donning a black suit, his fair complexion looked rather pale and waxy along with his red puffy eyes. His eyes looked void as he lifted his head and spoke, "Do you think she deserved to die?"

Ru's head tilted as she looked heavenwards, "She had already been dead from the day her right to live freely was taken from her. So what if she's buried now? She had long been dead inside." Her hands clenched tightly as she lamented over the fact that if only she hadn't shown Lily a way to live again, maybe her death wouldn't have been this painful to her and the people around her.
