Experiment #83

Part 3

There I sleep peacefully, inside a coffin. I was about to get burried. Everyone came, my family and friends, and all of them are dressed in black. I just stand here, beside my little sister who's holding a bouquet of white roses. The coffin is lowered, and people start to cover it with dirt and soil. I look at Yuki's sad face. I want to comfort her, but the fact that I'm lifeless and I'm not in my physical body, I can't.

Soon, the coffin is buried deep under the ground. Yuki slowly walk towards the tombstone, and place the bouquet right under the tombstone. She walks back to our parents and hugs them. "I can't accept this..."

"We can't..." mom mutters with her teary eyes.

"H-he's not dead, is he?" Tears start to swell in her eyes, "He's still waiting at home... waiting for us, r-right?"

Warm tears flow from her eyes, "TELL ME IF HE'S STILL ALIVE!" she shouts at the top of her voice and lets go of her parents. She broke down on her knees. "Tell me.."

"We're sorry..."

"It's unfair..." Yuki stares at the ground.

Dad kneels in front of my fragile little sis. "Life is unfair... he's happy in heaven now... he's in a better place." Wrong, I'm not happy to be standing here, seeing that my little sis cry just for me. Dad picks up Yuki in his arms and carries her as she hold on to her dad, just like what she did everytime I carry her.

"Let's get you home..." Mom pats Yuki's back as the three of them walk towards our car. I follow behind them.

Yuki calmed down a bit and softly says, "Mom? Dad?"

"Yes, what is it?" Mom says.

She takes a deep breath, "Can you do me a favor?" She tries to not look at our parents.

"Anything for you."

"Bring onii chan back." Her voice turns serious, but still a little bit shaky. Mom and dad somehow know what she meant, and that is to revive me back. But I don't think that's possible...

Dad puts a finger on his chin, "But, we never do that and we don't know how."

"Please, both of you are scientists, you must find a way." Woah, is she that desperate to want me back?

Mom and dad stopped walking as they look at each other. And then they look at Yuki. Mom took a deep breath, "Of course, sweetie. We'll try our best."
