1st POV: Mayuko's
After the graduation ceremony ended, I was driven back home. And at home, we had our own small graduation party. I had preferred this one than the one that I received invitations to go to, where a large group of people were going to be. That wasn't meant for me.
This here with Tiffany, Mother, Sehun, Taeyeon and Kai.Jr was enough. We talked friendly to one another, eating the dinner that was prepared for us by the servants. Seohyun and Kai had gone out to a restaurant, whether being here at home. That was for the best.
Sunday was the next day and that was the day Sehun kept his promise to me. Taeyeon and Tiffany tagged along as well when we went to visit Jessica at her grave in a mausoleum that solely had her grave in it, like other ones that consisted of many dead ones. We were all dressed in black and brought bouquets of white flowers to replace the old ones. Her name was written on her square stone and above it and had the mark of her family on top. She was the prime ministers daughter.
I looked at the picture of her that was laid against the golden box that consisted of her ashes inside of it. She was smiling in a white dress, looking up as if she was in heaven in the photo that had flowers around the frame. Taeyeon had came over, patting my back as I was shedding tears, while the others stood there looking.
With a deep breath and wiping my tears away, I got to my knees and performed a deep 90 degree bow to show my respect. Then the others followed as well and I could hear Tiffany's muffle cries next to me. Taeyeon and Sehun finished their bow and left us two inside, since we were the closest to her, except Taeyeon that is.
I then sat up, still on my knees, with my hands on my lap, as I looked at Jessica's picture with Tiffany. We then took our turns to speak to her.
"Did you get sent off well? I'm sorry for not being there," I said taking my turn first.
"I never got to tell you how much you affected my life," Tiffany cried out in a low voice.
"I graduated and worked hard just like you told me."
"I watched over Mayuko and helped protected her...we protected her together...this is what you wanted also, right?"
"I'll take your protection to the heart and I'll never see in vain again. You gave your life to protect me and I will see it as precious. Before, I didn't. I'm sorry...I promise I'll take care of my life from now on."
"You do the same. Take care up there in heaven."
Then we both spoke in synch and then did another bow, crying out loudly. It was impossible not to cry.
"Please," We wept.
After cleaning up ourselves, we came out and saw Sehun and Taeyeon standing there sadly. I wiped away anymore tears with my hands and looked at her. "Y-You could have stayed in, she’s your sister."
Taeyeon shook her head, making her hair that was tied back swing. Her face was paler today as well.
