On a clear, serene night, with the bright moon hanging high in the sky, Nan Yu felt the girl she was clutching in her arms slowly fade into nothingness.
SOB... SOB...
She hadn't been able to cry at the funeral. She just felt numb. Though she was sad, it was as if something had clogged her heart, preventing her from shedding a single tear or even letting out a whimper.
But now, clutching nothing but air, she was completely overcome with grief.
True heartbreak and sorrow leave you speechless. In the first few days after Lili passed away, Nan Yu hadn't processed it.
Before she could even begin to grieve, strange things started happening.
She'd had no time for sorrow; she was too consumed by fear. But now, she felt it with absolute clarity: Lili was truly gone.
The girl she'd known since kindergarten had just vanished from her arms.
Even Su Nian found the scene heart-wrenching, but she had never been good at comforting people.
