Third person's POV.

The pale crescent moon shone like a silver claw in the vast of black canvas named night sky while the blanket of glittery stars were spread out to the infinity.

The howling of cold wind was echoing in the atmosphere as one could hear it.

Stepping out of the car, his gaze went to the side where he saw his wife who closed the car door. Her whole being looked tensed, he could see that as she shuddered out a breath before walking towards the graveyard with the same journal in a firm hold.

The very graveyard where the people are having their eternal peace.

Saints and sinners rest here.

Blowing out a breath, he opened the car door and rested one of his palm on seat while leaning up towards the glove compartment on the dashboard. Opening it, he took two objects which he kept there and stood out of the car while keeping the items in the safety of his pocket.

Two of objects which sure gonna draw an impact on her. Maybe both him and her. Him for sure since it's gonna show an inner perspective on a lot of things.

Two tokens which sure gonna open her eyes and will keep her grounded. He knew it since he was sure on what he's doing.

It sure gonna give an inner eye to their relationship perhaps and he hope he could say the same about her too. Hopefully.

With a shake of head he started to walk a head to the grave yard, following her path where it leads to their destination.

It was late night as the half moon reflected on the grassy ground while the street light which was a far made the path a bit visible for his eyes.

The wind was blowing out onto a particular direction while caressing everything on it's way. He could hear the leaves shaking as some blowed out with wind while he could also hear distant voice of street dogs barking from somewhere distant.

Well, not an appropriate time to visit a graveyard, but did he cared? No, not at all. He don't care since if one should be afraid of something then it should be the outer world.

One should be more paranoid of the humans who change with time to time with that predatory nature more then the dead once here.

And he was damn sure that his wife would agree to him more than anything. At least both of them could agree on something for once.

Walking a head in between the graves of dead and tombstones, Taehyung saw his wife standing ghostly in between a particular grave. When he came closer, he noticed how her lips were quivering. Hands fisted tight with a longing gaze staring directly to the grave deadly.

Standing behind her, looking at the name which was being craved on the tombstone, a frown made it's way to his forehead. That wasn't her late mother's grave. No.

Who was that?

A small thud was heard as Storm dropped herself on her knees, sinking into the ground. Her eyes were glassy as it brimmed with tears while her gaze stayed on the headstone.

The frown on his forehead only deepens when he heard her whispering words softly which was written on the headstone as her eyes bled.

And he couldn't help but look up to the headstone itself and repeat the eternal words carved there while trying to recognize the name from the depth of his memories.

In the loving memory of

SON EZRA LEE
