Japan point 7
MARY
The Ryuji's family grave was fully lined by the tombstones of the relatives that have already passed away. Mini fresh sets of flowers in baskets were sitting on each of the tombstones.
Aiko held onto my hand firmly. She has been clinging to me ever since the family dinner last night. I have no idea why she was suddenly getting attached to me.
I don't mind though, She was the exact opposite of her brother and it was a fresh welcome for me.
I watched idly as Takahashi paid his respects to his parents. I noticed how he seemed to have bowed more lowly before his mother's tombstone.
He must have loved her so. I have felt the same when I thought that my mother had died.
My entire family would have died, but for some reason, I still have my mother and my brothers.
It made me think of Margie. How would she react when she finds out that my family was alive?
