No one knew why she let go of him, maybe she lost hope. She lived in a nightmare, but it wasn't suppose to be one. Someone loved her, and she didn't know that until her final moments. She's resolved, her nightmare has ended, and she's gonna wait for her lover...as long as it takes...even if it means forever.

The Funeral took place the following day. It was hard for her parents to say goodbye. They had raised a terrific young lady, and her life ended all because of one guy. They tried not to think about it, but deep down, they knew He didn't take care of their baby like he should of. They didn't want put the blame on him though, seeing how hard he was taking it.

Everyone left after they paid respect to Sora one last time, but Matt stayed behind. The sky grew dark, and lightning flashed, soon rain followed. But this didn't bother him, he just wanted to stay and watch Sora's grave. He wanted to be with her, he had wanted to die along side her. The cemetery keeper saw Matt come every morning, and he would stay there until evening, not moving, not even eating anything. It went on for days, then weeks, then months.

" Occasionally he would talk to her, whispering comments that no one could hear . Comments that he knew she would hear. But what was strange was that he didn't show up one day. I think it was the anniversary of her death. How strange is that..."

After that day, he never came back to visit the grave. He disappeared from his apartment, leaving Christine to fend for herself. He knew the truth, he was angered, but more lonely then ever. He couldn't stand the sight of seeing that girl and her baby again, he couldn't stand listening to her talk, she was the one that caused Sora to die, and he would never forgive her.

Matt moved to another apartment, and started a new job. His band fell apart since that day, he just didn't have the spirit to sing anymore. Sora's death had had a huge impact on him. His whole lifestyle changed, he became a cashier at the local supermarket, and he would occasionally daze during the day. The customers eventually complained and he was out of a job, again.

He still had the money he had made from his world famous tour, but he didn't want to use it because it was the money he had saved up for Sora. The money he would use to buy her a happy life, but he knew that the money wasn't what she had wanted, it was him that she wanted. And now he wanted her. He had always wanted her, he loved her, and he still did...In his dreams, the words "We'll always be together" echo, it was true, they were always together... in spirit, through the soul, and in their heart...
