"You killed my friend." 

Tears came rushing down my cheeks, and even though I tried my best to hold them in, the emotions that were swelling inside of me came out inevitably. My eyes were swollen, my hair was tangled and in my hands was a corpse. 

"You killed my friend, you bastard." I muttered, staring at a male with green hair and amber eyes. There wasn't a single ounce of emotion from the person that had just murdered my friend. 

"Sia." The male said with his cold, usual tone. It felt so unfair to find that the man who had just tainted his hands with blood could speak so calmly. 

"Don't you dare call me by that name!" I sobbed, as I put my face closer to heart of the corpse I held. I trembled, and all seemed like a dream. 

The man came closer to me, taking steps which felt like ones of a demon. As tears continued to fall from my eyes and I cried out in pain, I was soon faced with the man directly in front of me. 

"I'm sorry." He said, and this voice which I despised with all my heart right now, was the same voice that I yearned for centuries. I couldn't face him, I didn't have the courage to face him. In the end, he was still the same murderer that killed my friend. 

"I'm sorry, Sia." He repeated, and every time he apologised, I knew that it contained no meaning. Every time he said 'I'm sorry', all I felt was unbearable pain. I wanted to scream in agony. I wanted to rip him into pieces. I wanted him to feel the same pain I did. 

After that, throughout the whole night, I wailed and cried for my friend who still laid cold buried in my arms, all the while her killer stood beside her without a word.

I wished that this was all a dream.
