The ringtone of his phone woke up Ferne. He couldn't fall asleep again after he had answered a call. Then he checked the message from Christy. He was stunned at the sight of the picture because he hadn't seen Vincent like that.

Ferne noticed that today was November 17th, the anniversary of Vincent's younger sister's death.

Each year, Vincent would go to the cemetery and stay there for a long time.

Earlier this year, he had moved to Happisland City, which was far away from City Y. Emily thought that Vincent would not come back tonight. However, he opened the bedroom door and came in before Emily could fall asleep.

Their bedroom was comfortable. It was the result of Emily's design and decoration. Several green worms sent by Sydnee were hiding under the desk. On the desk were PVC figures given by Randy as a gift for congratulating them on moving into a new house. There were several pictures on the wall which Ferne sent. And the woolen slippers were made by Lynn.
