Minho was sitting in the sand, in front of him an ocean. He enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and often came here to calm down, or just to remember all the memories he made on his adventure.
As he carved small figures into the sand, Thomas walked towards Minho, and sat down newt to him. "We set up the stone." Thomas said and stared at the ocean, the sun slightly blinding him. He squeezed his eyes together and then looked at Minho, who still carved things into the sand. "I don't think I am ready yet." Minho said, and looked at Thomas, who had shared a tear. "Me neither. It's okay. Just do it whenever you have found peace." Thomas said and stood up to walk away. "Wait." Minho stood up too, walked towards Thomas and hugged him. They held each other tightly, not wanting to let go. "Maybe we'll find the peace through this." Minho said as he pulled away. Thomas nodded slightly, and walked towards the big stone with Minho.
Minho put the knife on the stone, and slowly carved something in it. With every letter he carved, all the memories came back, and he shared a tear or two. When he was done, he smiled at what he created, and then handed the knife to Thomas. "It's okay. They can rest now." Thomas smiled slightly, putting one hand on Minhos shoulder. He nodded and then made his way to the beach again.
Minho looked down at his hands with the two bracelets in it, and then looked into the sky. He pulled Newts necklace out of his pocked and then stood up. He looked down, and then decided to find inner peace, by throwing them into the Ocean. He watched it, as it slowly sank to the ground, not knowing that there was a letter in the necklace.
And with that, Minho grabbed Newts diary, and started to finally read through it. It was hard for him, because he didn't know what he would read in there, but he knew it would be worth it. As he ran through the pages, he saw that on every single page, Newt wrote Coras name in a little corner. Minho knew, that Newt did that, because he was scared of forgetting her. Of forgetting the person he truly loved.
As Minho was done reading through it, he wrote something on a blank page, telling Newts and Coras story. He was finally ready to let go, and as it was getting dark, Minho closed the diary and dug a hole into the sand, slowly placing it in there. Before he was able to put sand on it, he saw two butterflies sitting on the diary. One was green, and the other one was purple. Minho smiled, knowing that they are together again.
As they flew away, he buried the diary, and carved a heart into the sand where the diary was laying. And with that, he went to bed, hoping to see Cora and Newt in his dreams, because after all, there was no other way.
