Renjun
It's been two weeks.
Renjun
Your seat in school was empty today.
Renjun
I closed my eyes and wished that when I opened them you would be there.
Renjun
But you weren't.
Renjun
They keep asking me questions.
Renjun
They want to know what you told me. But I promised you.
Renjun
I'll never break that promise.

Renjun watched as his mother worriedly talked on the phone with his father. She was worried because her son had stopped talking. He wouldn't answer her, or anyone else for that matter.

The police had questioned him and he had kept quiet, he promised her after all.

"Renjun, please." Her mother begged him, tears leaving her eyes.

But Renjun kept his mouth shut.
