Wilkinson stood there and still couldn't believe it. What was it supposed to be? Why is Jikyo lying here?
"J-jikyo...?" The blonde whispered and then approached her husband, discovered him and looked at her beloved. "Why are you lying here? Why don't you open your eyes? Why don't you wake up? " Tears appeared in her eyes. "Jikyo? " She moved closer and took his face in her hands. "Why are you so cold?" She cried. "You hate the cold, Jikyo. " She looked at the dried blood that was dripping from her husband's forehead. "Why won't you say anything?"
The nurse standing next to her couldn't control her tears, she cried next to Lily.
"Jikyo? " Wife cried. "O-open your eyes. " Her voice was breaking. "This isn't real, this can't be real!" She called. "Jikyo! " She stroked his cold cheeks. "I'm begging you, open your eyes! Look at me! " She cried, tears streaming down her cheeks. "You can't leave! I forbid you! Jikyo, I beg you! Don't go..." She despaired and laid her head on the dead man's chest. "Don't leave me..." She sobbed. "What am I supposed to do without you...?" She couldn't hold back anymore.
No matter how much Liliana begged Jikyo to wake up in that moment, the man couldn't grant her wish, not this time. In one brief moment, life made fun of them again, and this time separated them forever.
Lily broke down completely. Seeing her dead husband, she was shocked, she couldn't accept that Jikyo was gone.
She had to bury him and get him ready first. Liliana herself, carefully and thoroughly washed her beloved, washed off all the blood and changed his clothes. She wouldn't let anyone else touch him. She didn't allow it. She didn't listen to the words of her friends, she didn't care anymore. Now she didn't care anymore.
The day of the funeral, and she was silent. She couldn't say anything, not even a single word.
"Mommy..." Ben pulled her hand. "Why is dad still sleeping?" Boy asked, looking at Jikyo lying in the coffin. "I called him, but he doesn't wake up, Mom..." He looked at the broken woman. "Try to call him, dad always listens to you. "
Liliana said nothing. She remained silent, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"Why are they doing this? " Ben called, seeing how the men wanted to close the coffin. "Mom! Stop them! They want to lock up dad! Dad! Daddy, wake up! Appa! " Little boy cried, Jade tried to calm him down.
Lily walked over to the coffin and looked at Jikyo one last time.
She smiled faintly. He looked like he was sleeping, just sleeping.
Wilkinson adjusted his suit and shirt, then smoothed his hair and took his cold hand. Woman looked at her husband with tears in her eyes. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't find the words, so instead she stood by him in silence for a moment longer, all the while gently stroking his hand. A moment later, she softly hummed the lullaby Jikyo loved so much.
"Nae salang..." She whispered in a broken voice. "My honey..." She cried. "My Jikyo..." She looked at his hand, which had a wedding ring on it.
Unable to take it any longer, she cried louder and bent over the coffin. Jade gave Ben Andre on his knees and ran to her broken friend and then wanted to pull her away from the coffin.
"Come, sweetheart... "
"No, let me go. " The blonde jerked back and looked at Jikyo again, then leaned over her dead husband and kissed him on the forehead, letting tears fall on the man's face.
Later, Liliana had no choice but to let the men close her husband's coffin.
"Mom! Stop them! " Ben cried. "Appa! Dad! Daddy..." Boy cried. "Why are you ignoring me?! Why did dad stay there? Mom... " He looked at the woman and then ran to her and grabbed her hand. "Do something, please. Dad is..."
