He was sitting there for how many hours. Sheri was just waiting for his next move but from how many hours he never moved in his place. Sheri was bored looking at his face, so she started walking in the cemetery or doing something until Devon's phone rings, and she walked beside him to listen. When Devon saw who called. He picked up.
Sheri listens to their conversation.
"It's grandma, where are you? Janice called me that you didn't come home?" His grandma said.
"Grandma, I am infertile," Devon said.
Sheri was inexpressibly shocked.
"What do you mean infertile? You had made one before if that Hoal girl didn't push Janice maybe you already have one now and Janice is also pregnant now. How can you say your infertile?" His grandma asked.
"I merely found out that I'm infertile, and Janice has never been pregnant before. The one that is in her belly now is not mine also." Devon said.
Sheri places her shaking hands in her mouth. She doesn't comprehend what to feel or do.
His grandma was silent on the other line.
"Come home now, and we will get another opinion. For Janice, we can do a DNA test there must be a mistake, come home." His grandma firmly said.
Devon calms down and wipes his tear and calls his personal assistant they arrived at the entrance of the cemetery and went home at his grandma's place, leaving Sheri alone in the cemetery.
Sheri was speechless. She doesn't know what to do. She covers her mouth when she recalls she only saw blood in Janice's head and not between her legs.
She mindlessly walked thinking and pondering how and why would Janice do something like that.
After a few more days. Sheri stayed in her graveyard. At least her family changes her graveyard in a private place overlooking a field with a beautiful landscape. Her name was scribbled in her gravestone with a beautiful design. She appreciates the design of it. It was Sheva who made it. She loves arts. Sheri was enjoying the scenery when she saw someone approaching her graveyard with a purple hyacinth on his hand.
She looked and was dumbfounded.
It was Eric in his suits. He placed the flower in her grave looking solemn, and his odd expression was unexplainable.
He caressed her gravestone. He was silent for how many hours. Sheri observed him.
"I'm sorry, I" Eric withhold his words. What would he say to her? He knows precisely, that she was heed over heels him, but he killed her for harming someone who he naturally thinks is special. He was deceived, and now it's too late. How to properly compensate her and her family of what he did to them. He was undoubtedly lost on what to do.
"If there is a second life. Allow me to pay for what I have done toward you. I know you can never forgive me and don't blame you with it." Eric gently said
He sits next to her grave while Sheri on the other side sits. Both were looking at the sitting sun.
Sheri didn't respond. What would she say? It's tiring to be consistently in fear. It's tiring to hold a grudge. It's tiring not to forgive. She's now dead. She can't do anything. Do scream and hating help? Sheri thinks no. She is not a saint when it comes to what they did toward her, but she will never burden her self anymore about something that she can't control.
