The day of the funeral had arrived, shrouded in an air of solemnity. Reina's passing weighed heavily on the hearts of those who had known her, particularly (Y/n). Dressed in all black, she felt the shadows of grief wrap around her like a suffocating shroud. The clouds above mirrored her sorrow, hanging low and gloomy, threatening rain as if the sky too mourned the loss of a vibrant life.

(Y/n) stood on the porch, nervously fidgeting with the hem of her dress, her heart heavy with the reality of what lay ahead. The somberness of the day seemed to settle in her bones as she glanced down the street, watching as Yuuto's car approached. The vehicle rolled to a slow stop at the curb, the sound of tires on asphalt adding to the heavy silence.

Taking a deep breath, (Y/n) dusted herself off, steeling her resolve. She began to walk toward the car, but as she did, she noticed Yuuto stepping out from the driver's side. His outfit caught her attention, an elegant reflection of his personality and the gravity of the occasion. He wore a crisp white dress shirt, the collar slightly unbuttoned to soften the starkness of his attire. A fitted black blazer hugged his shoulders, its fabric rich and textured, lending him an air of quiet sophistication. His black slacks tapered down to polished shoes that gleamed even in the muted light. The ensemble was completed with a simple silver watch, its face glinting subtly, a contrast to the otherwise dark tones of his outfit.

Yuuto walked past his car, his gaze steady and comforting, closing the distance between them. (Y/n) matched his pace, her heart thudding in her chest as she approached. The air was thick with unspoken words, the kind that hung between friends in moments of shared grief.

"Are you ready for this?" he asked gently, extending his hand toward her. The gesture was simple yet filled with a weight that resonated deep within the girl. She stared at his hand for a moment, contemplating the reality of what they were about to face. No, she wasn't ready. The thought echoed in her mind like a relentless drumbeat. But deep down, she knew she didn't have a choice.

With a sigh that felt heavy in her chest, (Y/n) reached out and took his hand, a silent acknowledgment of their shared burden. Yuuto's grip was firm yet reassuring, grounding her amidst the turmoil of emotions swirling inside. He guided her to the passenger side of the car, opening the door with a fluid motion.

As she slid into the seat, the soft music playing from the radio washed over her like a soothing balm. It was a melancholic melody, one that seemed to encapsulate the feelings of loss and longing that filled the air. She glanced at Yuuto as he closed the door, his expression a mixture of sympathy and strength.

Yuuto slid into the driver's seat, the familiar hum of the car filling the space as he turned on the heater just slightly. The warmth wrapped around them like a comforting blanket, a stark contrast to the chill of the day. "Looks like it might rain," he remarked casually, glancing out at the overcast sky as he shifted the car into drive and pulled away from the curb.

"Yeah," was all (Y/n) managed to say, her eyes fixed on the passing scenery, not even daring to look up at the clouds. She could feel the weight of the day pressing down on her, and the reality of what was ahead felt almost suffocating.

She heard Yuuto take a deep breath beside her, and a knot formed in her stomach, sensing that he had something on his mind. "Just so you know... a lot of people are going to be there. My parents, everyone's siblings... Kai." He trailed off, the unspoken words lingering in the air.

Immediately, (Y/n) whipped her head to look at him, her heart racing. "What?" The question slipped out before she could even think about it. They came to a stop at a red light, the silence amplifying the tension in the car.

"He's going to be there," Yuuto continued, his voice steady yet tinged with concern. "(Y/n)... he's known her for most of his life. I'm not asking you to interact with him, but I'm just warning you that he'll be there. Today's about Reina." He met her gaze, his expression a mixture of understanding and caution.
