Chapter 1: Side Story Part I

A few minutes after Hinari and her son, Zach left Zaki's gravestone, Sei and Yu Chen came next.

The two men did not talk, nor did they move. They were just quietly standing before Zaki's gravestone, staring at it with their own thoughts filling their minds. Both were reminiscing on the good old days and when times were better.

Sei's reminiscing continued until it brought him back on the time when Zaki was on his death bed. And that was not too long ago thus, the memory was still sort of fresh in the timeline of his recollection.

"Sei…" Zaki said while he lay on his hospital room. Hinari had just left Zaki's room to go check on Zach and to give the brothers their time to speak in private.
