Lightning stood in silence as she watched the coffin descend into the floor below. No tears would flow from her face- she wouldn't allow it. She stared at the head stone.
Fang Yun
Died at age 27
A loving mother and a good friend
Lighning furrowed her brows. She didn't know she had children. Her eyes looked around and landed on two people. The girl had short dark brown hair and deep blue eyes. She looked around 14 years. The other boy had steel blue hair and the same blue eyes. He was older, maybe 16?
They looked nothing like her, not really. But they're the youngest at the funeral.
The girl got up from her seat and walked over. She lifted her hand and dropped a flower onto the lowering coffin. It was a single blue flower that fell gracefully to the ground.
"I promise, Momma. I promise." she whispered, holding back her tears and walking over to her seat.
Lightning then left, not wanting to stick around for much longer. She hated funerals and plus she had to go see her darling sister and annoying brother-in-law.
Lightning was just enjoying a glass of wine her sister poured for her when her phone rang. After taking a small sip of the glass she reached into her pocket and took out her phone. She pressed the simple green button that read "answer" before placing it to her ear.
"Hello?" she asked, looking at the floor.
"Is this Miss Farron?" a male asked.
"Yes, this is she. Who is this?"
"Miss Farron, I must ask you to come over to the recently deceased Fang Yun's house. Her two children Xion and Zexion Yun have been placed in your custody."
Lightning's mouth went dry. "What?"
