Chapter 7 Anomalies

The sudden noise left Dennise's parents and siblings frozen.

Fear appeared on their faces.

But it vanished in an instant.

All that remained was...

Expectation.

It was the expectation of regaining a 'treasure' once lost.

Two youths were eager to try, seemingly wanting to open the coffin to see their sister, while Dennise's father walked decisively towards the coffin.

Dennise's mother, on the other hand, began to murmur to herself:

"They all say fools live long lives."

"How could you possibly die so suddenly?"

"Are you unwilling to miss the feast of the autumn harvest?"

"Are you worried about the pocket money hidden under your pillow?"

"Are you thinking about the biography novel you haven't finished reading?"

"I was planning to burn it for you."

"Now..."

"No need."

Jason watched this family.

Without a doubt, they loved Dennise.

To them, the deceased Dennise was still their daughter, sister, an important family member.

But,

some things

are irreversible.
