Liam stammered, his words incoherent.
"Please, just let me hold Cecilia one last time, I beg you." His eyes were filled with tears.

Just as I was about to hand over the urn in my arms, a voice rang out.
"My dear Liam."
Mia had arrived without me noticing. She gently wiped away Liam's tears. Her voice was filled with sorrow.
