Nicholas loved the old woman. She was the only mother figure he had and he respected her a lot. "Dont tell me gibberish." Was all he said before they laid the girl to the pit they had dug. They didnt let him do any digging because they all knew the man was not in the right mood. And in few minutes will be his birthday. Will he be taking such foul mood into a day that was suposod to be considered beautiful? Nicholqs wanted to tear up but he decided this wasnt the time. Phantasy hadbetter give him a reasonable explanation as to why she did this. Even though no explanation she gives, will be reasonable.
The old woman simply kept quiet. She knew that there was nothing she could say that would be in the ladys' favour right now. Nicholas was too clouded by his thoughts to even be able to see the truth of the matter. As they covered the corpse and the workers made silent prayer fr the girl, the old woman pats Nicholas shoulders again.
