   ❝So the darkness, shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing

   Chapter 13


Chit chats echoe mystically through the forest, skies were dim almost as they lost their loved one as well. Dim and cloudy yet no rain, the clouds seems like me, tears have vanished.

My eyes gape around, everyone in a black dress, men's speaking to one another and setting up the area.

The coffin is about to arrive, but I am not ready for it. I can hear slight whimpers but ignoring it didn't quite help. Everyone is setting up the chairs and a horizontal like patter, and in the middle front stands the priest. I guess everyone has arrived?

Funeral is about to start.

"Miss Green, your parents are calling?"

Ignoring him, I walk my way towards my parents talking to a group a people. "Yeah" I say softly.

"Sweetie, the ceremony is about to start why don't you take a seat in the front row, your friends are coming" shrugging her hands of my shoulder I do as she says.

Honestly, I just don't feel like doing anything, I want to go home pack my bags and try to understand what the note means.

It has never left my mind since the occurrence. Two days ago. I don't even know what to think of it. What I do know is that whatever he may knew was my past and that means whoever did this too him knows me, knows the real me. Meaning my past certainly had enemies. Not sure how many, but someone for sure must have hated me too the core.

My thoughts fade away as I see my friends sit alongside with me. "Hi!" I whisper, shaking each of their hands. Saying there greeting I look behind me to see if the V brothers have arrived. A smile lift up my lips as I see both of them with Bella on Vinter hands, making their way up to us.

"Hey Roe" Vinter said softly giving me a hug, my voice is too dry to speak so I decide to just stay quite. My eyes lock with Vincent, I never really hugged him, should I? Or no, but we didn't we look at each other and he just shakes my hand in sorrow. Why is it so awkward?

The days go by, everyone finally shuts down and all we can hear is the whistling sound of the wind. "Welcome to Alex Davids funeral... A man with the heart of...

The priest kept on talking, and I tune myself out. I am tired of all of this, I was so close to knowing everything, but now he is gone. Gone like the wind.

It didn't take too long for people to go up and speak about him, I didn't go, I don't want to anyways. It is too hard, so I just sit there and watch people come up, many are crying, and many are just plain dead. I? I think I'm as plain as a white wall right now.

"And now for the moment of silence" the priest claims. We all get up, our heads bow in condolence. My eyes slowly look to the left to see his family, ive never actually met them, and now to see them only at this time can only cause my heart to ache.

A little girl stood their, her ocean blue eyes not leaving mines. She keeps shaking her head, as if I did something wrong. Maybe I did? Ignoring her seeping eyes, I look down.

When we finally finished, we all retrieve to greet other guests. I stand far away from the crowd, I can't believe this is happening. Watching the mens start burying the coffin, the girl with the blue ocean eyes runs towards me.

"This is for you, don't show anyone" she says taking my hand and putting a folded paper there.

What? I watch as the girl fades away from my view. What is happening to my life right now? I quickly open the note, it says:
