章 539: Babysitter

The black sky finally began to be painted over with the color of dawn. But the two figures standing before Riev's grave had yet to move or say a single word.

Alicia had kept her head down, finally whispering her prayer, her last goodbye to Riev in silence. The sadness that had weighed heavily in her heart hadn't subside one bit but when she opened her eyes, she lifted her head and looked at the horizon.

It was already dawn. A slight and emotional smile curved on her face as Riev's grinning face appeared in her imagination, waving goodbye, slowly disappearing, as the rising sunshine swallowed him.

'Goodbye, Riev,' she whispered within her and then, she turned to leave.
