"It's not your family that's buried here. Why are you so anxious? This entire cemetery belongs to our Finley family. You don't need to worry about the compensation."
I pushed Erin away angrily, picked up the scattered ashes with my hands, and buried them in the soil.
I couldn't help but cry out,
"Don't be afraid. As long as the sun hasn't risen, your soul won't fly away, and you'll be able to reincarnate..."
But as I cried, my tears dripped into the soil, blending the ashes into the earth. I could no longer pick them up.
How could it be...
The more anxious I became, the clumsier I became. In the end, I tripped over a tombstone, and the white porcelain urn broke into pieces. The ashes in it scattered everywhere in the wind.
"It's just a graveyard. Grace, why the hell are you doing here?"
Jason grabbed me and stopped me forcefully.
"Jason, the priest said this piece of land was a great burial spot for Danny, and it can't be changed."
Jason's sorriness for me disappeared immediately.
"Continue!"
Erin walked up to me.
"Grace, they are just strangers, and their death meant nothing. Why do you care about them? The deceased's family might be happier if we dig them up and compensate them with money."
I couldn't bear it anymore!
I pushed Jason's hands away, held the sharp porcelain piece in my hand, and stabbed Erin with it!
My hands were stained with blood.
