Everyone was quiet and the atmosphere was gloomy as the coffin was being lowered into the ground. You could hear a few sniffs and sobs. Others were staring silently. One of them being Sehun.
Yes, he was back, just so suddenly. He just showed up without telling anyone. He stood there with his no facial expressions and cold eyes that most people see on him. But all I saw was pain written all over his face as I watched from afar.
The coffin reached the ground and they started covering the coffin with dirt. The people started throwing their flowers onto the grave.
After a while, people began leaving. And eventually they all left but Sehun didn't move so neither did I. I didn't know whether to comfort him or greet him or just leave him alone. I couldn't talk to him in fear of just hurting him more.
I stayed put in my spot waiting for Sehun to move or do something. Soon the sky became dark and cloudy before it started to rain, and it only kept getting heavier. But even with the rain and the gray sky, he did not move. We stayed in the rain for half an hour till I thought that was enough.
I grabbed the umbrella that was sitting in my car and went back to my spot. I approached Sehun and cleared my throat. I stood next to him and held the umbrella over his head, without saying a word.
After a few seconds, he glanced over at me with the softest eyes and then back at the grave. He sighed and stayed put.
"If you continue to stay out here you'll get sick." I whispered
He didn't move nor did he say anything. I waited a bit for him to respond but nothing came out of his mouth. I waited another ten minutes but that was all I could take. His clothes were all wet and he was starting to shiver.
"Sehun, please." I whispered again while shivering
My heart skipped a beat when he turned to me with his glassy eyes. He looked at me for a few seconds with a frown while I stared back. This wasn't the reunion I had in mind.
I stepped a bit closer towards him, leaving a small space between us. He leaned his head down, and onto my shoulder, without saying a word. I slowly raised my hand up, hesitating for a moment, before I placed it on his back, seeking to comfort him. He suddenly pulled me closer to him and wrapped his arms around me, holding me tightly.
That was when I heard him sniffing and crying. He sounded so broken, so in pain. He seemed so weak, it broke my heart to pieces. I've never seen this side of him before. He always had that cold wall up so no one could see his emotions.
"I missed you so much." He sobbed as he held me tighter
I felt my own eyes watering as tears were forming. My hands wrapped tighter around him, urging myself not to cry.
"I guess he won't be there when I go home." He said with a broken voice
"I'm so sorry." I spoke with a shaky voice
"He's so burdensome, I don't ever wanna see him again." He whispered
I stayed quiet and held onto him tightly. His head was still placed on my shoulders as I pat his back with my free hand to try to get him to calm down.
****************
I woke up feeling something heavy on my legs. I looked down and saw Sehun asleep with his head resting on my lap. I fell asleep while sitting on the couch in my apartment. We ended up coming here to rest and talk.
I looked at him and saw that he was still fast asleep. I slowly caressed his face and brushed his messy hair with my hands. He stirred up a bit in his sleep then opened his eyes slowly and looked at me.
