I stood under the rain in front of a coffin which will be close and buried in the cemetery. Ignoring the sounds of weeping behind me, I looked at the person inside the coffin for the last time.
Her name was Yua. Yua was my first friend, my neighbor, my best friend, my classmate, and also...my first love. Her husband, who was also our senior in high school, killed her with a kitchen knife when they were fighting. Now, her husband disappeared without a trace and Yua was in a coffin.
With a blank expression, I watched as her coffin was buried six feet under. After that, I turned around and left the cemetery. When I arrived home, I immediately went straight to my room and laid down on my bed while covering my face with my arm. Tears wetted my pillow as the room was filled with crying and sobbing.
"Why did you leave me alone?" I cried, freeing all the pent-up emotions that I held when I was at the cemetery.
"I wish I could go back in time...," I mumbled over and over until the tiredness took over my body.
However, before I fell asleep, I heard a voice whispered, "Your wish will be granted!" At that time, I didn't know that that whisper would change my life forever.
