Chapter 53 - Sheri Hoal (2/2)

Both were silent until Eric leaves that place. Day and night Sheri stayed, roaming around different towns and different areas. She's waiting for the system to get her.

During those times Eric keeps on visiting her grave every day for the past year. He always brings a colorful flower and stays there until dark.

The only thing that Sheri was frowning is, he seems like he's starting to get thinner and thinner. His robust body cannot be seen anymore. His handsome face starts fading away. He doesn't also bring anything to eat. Every time he comes at her grave from morning until evening. He never eats nor drinks. She can't ask anyway why.

In one case Sheri was waiting for Eric to appear she was customary for her to sit with him every afternoon. Both of them don't speak bȧrėly looked at the sunset. While waiting for Eric to show up that afternoon.

That particular afternoon was different. It was Devon who came. Wearing a white shirt and jeans. Sheri frowns when he saw him.

”What is he doing here?” Sheri said to herself.

Devon looked at the beautiful curved name of Sheri and Sheva's beautiful engraved art. He never speaks. He clenches his hand while looking at her grave.

At the same time, Sheri was observing him, but he was silent the whole time. She can't see any emotional expression on his face. He left afterward. Sheri merely shrugged and waits for Eric to come. Eric came afterward.

After sitting in the same place. Sheri was looking at him. He becomes so very thin, looking so unhealthy.

”What's wrong with you?” Sheri asked, but he never responds because he doesn't hear her neither can see her.

”This might be my last visit to you” He scarcely paused for a while and continues to talk.

”I will be going far. I will atone for my sin to you and desperately hope you will forgive me.” Eric put the flower on her grave and waits until it was dark and slowly walked toward his car.

Sheri looked suspiciously at his back. He looked like he's sick. She felt there's something wrong with him.

After how many days pass indeed Eric didn't come. Sheri was pondering over his words before.

Sheri waited but he never appears. After a few months, She walked toward the streets and went toward her favorite spot where she is watching her noontime show. Sheri was watching when a piece of news appears.

”Eric Cooper, the young entrepreneur who owns one of the largest businesses in the world was declared dead in his home. His parents found him dead in his room. According to the police, there is no foul play in his tragic death. He left a note saying ” to atones once grave fault, is not enough.” The newscaster kept on speaking while Sheri places her quivering hands on her mouth. She was very shocked.

”Why would you do that?” Sheri asked toward the picture of Eric on the Tv.

Sheri went toward his funeral after locating his address. She followed them going to the cemetery. It was a private burial. There were so many paparazzi on the side. While his parents were bearing a picture of him crying.

Sheri thought they would bury him in a private cemetery but no, they went toward the private place where she was buried.

She was dumbfounded and furrows her brows. When they are burying him.
