[ at the cemetery ]

"where are you?" he whispered as he roamed his eyes around the cemetery. darkness fell, and only the moon above helped him see his way through wherever she might have been.

a few moments later, his eyes fell upon a woman who seemed to be familiar. she was there, smiling at him. his eyes lit up as he sighed in relief.

"there you are! i've looked everywhere for you!" he ran as fast as he can to minimize the distance between them but as soon as he did, she vanished into thin air together with his precious smile.

"i'm fine, you have nothing to worry about," says a familiar voice that made him shiver in fear. there was no one there but him.

he stiffened and went deathly pale when his eyes fell upon the stone lying in front.

the stone was engraved with her name.

"she can't be! i-im pretty sure i saw her earlier!" he convinced himself.

but what terrified him more was the fact that... the girl who led him here was lying beside her grave,

and both stones say:
