In the silence and in the darkness, a sleepless night went by. Sun came out and a small stream of light came in through a sewer opening like vent on the top.
Yue's hands gently touched his knife. Each and every grove of it imprinted in his mind from his fingers touching it all night.
'what to do now... I... I don't know.... I don't want to go back home. I don't want to face an empty house once again...' he hugged her knees tightly.
Taking a deep breath, he stood up. 'No, it's time to go home. Even if they are not alive anymore I have to.... to arrange a funeral..'
His heart was no longer in denial.
"You up so soon," ray whispered handing him a bottle of water.
Yue shook his head no. "I'm leaving,"
"What so soon? Stay for a bit. You have everything here..." he mumbled, glancing at Tian. She ignored him completely.
