Chapter 12

(18 months left) (February)

Today is the day.

Lissa was notified a week before and now the day had arrived.

Today was the day, that Lissa lays her best friend to rest.

Steph's funeral.

Lissa managed to find an elegant black dress to wear, and Jace was dressed in a black and white suit.

Lissa couldn't contain her tears today, especially at the cemetery, when they descended Steph's coffin six feet below the ground.

There were alot of people at the funeral — some family, some friends. Stephanie sure made herself known, and it shown.

•

There Lissa was. Sitting on her bed, with her head against the headboard, eyes closed, she took slow breaths, and tried to process the incident that occurred the month before. Emphasis on tried.

She opened her eyes, very slowly when she heard her bedroom door open, she waited to see who it was.

It was Jace, and he had two to-go coffee cups in his hands.
