Chapter 1

The sky was bleak and the weather was cold.

The church was full of people today.Nope....not for Christmas celebrations though.

It was a funeral procession for a girl.....she died

yesterday.

"I heard that the girl suicided......",a person whispered to another when others were stealing glances towards a broken father,an ill mother,and a solitary sister,who was so heartbroken and depressed that all the tears in her eyes dried.

She was standing far away from the crowd of the people who came to attend the funeral procession.

Many of her relatives came...an unprecedented situation though. Because they didn't have so called 'good relationship ' with them.Some were glancing towards the deceased's boyfriend.He was weeping continuously and consoling the parents who have just lost their daughter.

The girl standing in the corner suddenly came forward to proceed with her sister's last rites.She was hesitating but seeing the condition of her parents she decided to move forward.

The girl was emotionless when the church bishop called her.She was expressionless, gazing at the relatives a little ,who were still chatting with no remorse.And she also felt pity for her parents who completely were broken ,and disgust towards the boyfriend,who was continuously crying.

She spoke up...addressing the last rites for her sister's funeral.

"Thanks to all who have come to attend her last rites and pray for her departed soul.....Please stay here for a while,until the procession is over."The girl replied,her face much more dim than before.

"I am Shen Xiayu,the elder sister of Shen Xiayan,the person who have died and sleeping forever,resting in peace.I am here in the representative of my father,Shen Haoqian and my mother,Shen Yourou.I pray so that her soul may rest in peace."She continued.

"To describe my sister.....I have nothing to say more than this....She was a gentle soul who had rekindled kindness into passion but at the same time...bringing her own death.She was a moth who tried to be the butterfly but finally burned her wings by the fire.She was rebellious but obedient....she was a good sister ,a good daughter ,a good fiance and a to-be -good mother,who was bearing her children through the most depressed years of her life.She was supported but her mental health was declining. She was abandoned by a ruthless man but still supported by a good person.She had been struggling a lot.Whenever I felt pain,she was the one who would alleviate it.She was a guiding light...shining in the darkness,while...I was a black charcoal that was a mole in the very decent rays. I only have a small request to God...."

She could speak no more.She could feel that her tongue was so heavy.The tears she succeeded to hide were coming out .And her cold demeanor broke down to reveal her soft spot.

"'Tears??"',She thought by herself...."'I never cried though.Why I am crying today??""

""So this the pain of losing someone.How ironic...."' She continued to think
