He had held on for two hours, but couldn't hold on any longer.
I couldn't stop crying. The doctors and nurses came in and expressed their condolences.
He was alive and well the day before, but now was dead.
I threw myself on him and cried my heart out.
He just wanted to see his sister who was his only family since childhood.
He didn't even realize such a simple wish.
It seemed that Toby's position in her heart was more important than even that of her closest brother!
I stayed with Vito's body in despair while numbly contacting the funeral home.
Originally, I wanted to give Vita another call.
But I accidentally saw Toby's Moments.
He and Vita had arrived at the drifting site. They were now wearing life jackets and preparing to drift.
Vita snuggled up to him, looking extremely sweet.
I smiled sarcastically and turned off my phone.
When I came to my senses again, the funeral home had already handed Vito's urn to me.
I took Vito's urn back home.
The sea burial was scheduled for three days later. During those three days, I bought white calla lilies to mourn him.
During those three days, Vita didn't call once.
I was heartbroken and just as I was about to leave with the urn, I received a call from Vita.
