The smell of fresh soil fills my nose as a light current of water droplets begins to fall upon its surface. My feet begin to sink slightly into the soft earth like it's trying to pull me in. The suction only makes me feel heavier and heavier. A few drops of water get caught on their way down my eyelashes. I try to blink them away, but they just get mixed in with the salty current already flowing from my eyes. It doesn't take long before I can no longer tell the difference between my the sky's tears and my own. I suppose it's fitting for it to rain today; it's like the world is mourning with me. I don't even care that I forgot my umbrella. The cold, damp feeling that is slowly taking over my body can't compare to the numb, frozen feeling in my heart. So I stand there, unmoving in the rain. My eyes stare down wistfully at the stone standing before me, but I'm not really looking at it. My mind is somewhere else, far, far away. I barely even comprehend the feeling of Creed wrapping himself around my legs and whining. Then all of a sudden, the rain stops. Startled, I look up to find an umbrella being held over me. Dazai silently wraps his coat around my shoulders and holds me close. He doesn't ask any questions or try to console me. He's simply there. And that's all I need. As my eyes fall upon the figure of Lucky, his melancholy form laying down on the fresh grave, I completely break down. The trickling of tears that had been falling down my cheeks turns into an incessant current. If Dazai's arms weren't holding me up, the sight would have caused me to crumple into the wet ground. The only sound louder than my crying is the heartwrenching howling of Creed sitting below me. His deep, bellowing voice resonates within my chest. I can't help thinking about how I've lost my first and only girl friend. We were just becoming close... but now we'll always be six feet apart.
