Chapter 28

Bella's POV

I put on a white blouse, black pants, and black heels, a little bit of make up, then put my hair in a neat ponytail.

"Bella? Are you ready?"

I turn around and saw mom, wearing a white dress.

"Yeah, lets go?" I asked.

Mom nod and we both got out of my house, and into her car, with dad, Alessandro and Casandra.

"All of your friends from high school will be there," Casandra said.

"I know, they told me last night."

Casandra nod.

We arrived at the cemetery and we got out of the car.

We walked over towards Parker's body and sat down on the chair.

Someone put an arm around my shoulder, I look at my right, it was Alessandro, I leaned my body towards him, resting my head on his shoulder.

"You'll be fine," Alessandro said.

"Yeah, I'll be fine." I said, more to myself.

When all of the people is already here, including Jessica, she's seating on my left side.

I held her hand, since her husband can't go.

I put her head on my shoulder, she cried on my shoulder, sobbing uncontrollably.

I turn towards mom, she handed me a bottle of water and a box of tissue.

I gave Jessica the water first, she drank most of it, and I gave her the tissue.

The priest then came, saying his blessing and all.

When he's body was beginning to lower down, I stood when Jessica stood up, we both held a white rose, I put an arm around her shoulder, she just kept on crying, we put the flower on his body.

Jessica stayed a little longer, then we both sat back down.

***

We all got in my house, the guest in the living room, while I'm in the backyard, smoking.

"You still haven't cried," I heard Casandra say.

"I don't even know why I didn't cry, I mean, I cry that easily, but ever since Parker died, I haven't shed a single tear." I said.

"That's because your bottling it up," Jessica said, seating down on my other side.

"Huh?"

"I mean, your not showing emotions, which is not you, you don't even smile that much." She pointed out.

I smile, "See? I smile," I said.

"That's forced," they said.

I sigh, "It's just that, if I didn't cross that road, he will still be alive."

"Many things happened. Your not the only one who suffered lost, your not the only one who got depressed." Casandra said.

"Who said I'm depressed?" I asked.

"It's clear your depressed, I'm just stating the truth." She defended, "I don't want the past to repeat, even if it's not the same person."

I sigh, "I won't do that. Why are you guys even here? Why aren't you inside with the others?"

"We wanted to check up on you," Jessica said.

"I'm fine, let's go inside." I said, standing up.
