The end or the new beginning?

When Alec and the reapers reached the location they saw Ivan was continuously digging in the debris with his bare hands.

Alec quickly ran towards him and grabbed him by the shoulders and pulled him out of the hole he digged himself.

Ivan pushed Alec away with tears in his eyes and started to move towards the debris to continue digging.

Alec pulled Ivan towards himself again and this time he hugged him not letting him go.

Ivan struggled to get out of the embrace because it was comforting and he didn't want comfort, he just want his sis back but when Alec hugged him even tightly, his struggles weakened and he held onto Alec's shirt as if his life was depending on it.

Alec never saw Ivan in this state. He silently hugged him and letting him hold on to him.

Alec despite being an emotionless straight man had tears in his eyes after watching Ivan breakdown.
