The Woman Next Door

The Funeral

Three days had passed...
It seems like it was just yesterday they first met..
But the sounds of laughter was replaced by emptiness.
Belle walked, voices screaming in her mind and her heart racing. Her expression was blank, she was feeling no emotion. She held the hand of Shawn, Who was once her most hated enemy but now a brother.
Too much had happened for a past few days, it was a lot to take in. Especially when she had lost the one person who she would always go to when she felt sad.

"You okay?" Asked Shawn with a mature voice, He had gone through so much too. Losing his mother had completely broken his heart and he had lost his identity, he had lost who he was.
"Yea" replied Belle quickly, trying to force a smile but she couldn't.
"I know you aren't, I have been where you are!" Shawn replied.
Belle was taken by surprise. She was completely speechless. Silence reappeared. Belle let go of his hand.
And sat next to Crystal. Crystal was smiling.
"Clara would hate for us to be sad" Crystal said.
Belle nodded. She felt a bit better at Crystal's side.
Belle's parents tried and made attempt to speak to Belle, but she was just so depressed that she wouldn't talk, Especially about the horrible event.
Sitting next to Crystal was Kai. He was puzzled.
"Why is everyone sad?" He wondered.
"Clara would have loved today's weather" Belle said looking at the bright sky.
"And she would be cracking silly jokes" Crystal added.
And all of a sudden, they hear Kai laughing, And he said the following words,
"You're right, she does love it....."
