CHAPTER TWENTY ONE.

The funeral hall was already filled up and everyone was sitting quietly, Emilia was shedding a lot of tears and Nessa was not left out. Only the men had composure on themselves but Gregory was nowhere to be found, he was already on his way to the Philippines.

Chris was sitting downcastly near his wife’s casket and Kira was a few feet away from him, she wasn’t crying but to an extent she understood what was happening around her.

“Dad, why is mummy in that?” She asked childishly after a while.

Chris gestured for her to come over and she crawled towards her dad.

“Mummy has gone to heaven and she will be watching us from afar”

“Why? She told me she would be back to tuck me into bed so why is she not doing that?she is the one sleeping though”
