Chapter 52 - Strength

3rd Person's POV

Flowers were thrown left and right as the coffin slowly goes down the ground. Sound of sobs, weeps, and loud cries are heard around. Gabbie is holding her mother who cannot be calmed as she is draining herself with her nonstop tears coming out.

Gabbie was sitting silently as she stare at nowhere. She cannot even realize that her tears are flowing on their own and wetting her cheeks. She doesn't understand any of the happenings. It was too fast and she can't ride on it. She must be walking too slow.

Where did she lack? What part did she overlook? Was she tripping over something important?

She was thinking hard until she felt a skin tapping her left hand. Her right is currently hugging her mother. She realized then that Xander stayed on her other side and didn't go far at least once. He is now holding her hand as he looked her with comforting eyes. Gabbie is still wearing her expressionless face since the funeral started and it begins to worry Xander so much. Not showin
