Even After Death by Lilting Champ

The fireworks shot up into the sky and exploded into a dazzling display of lights.

The kids were holding sparklers, but they weren't the least bit excited.

"Dad, Mom will come back to us if she sees the lights in the sky, right?" Zack said as he sobbed.

"She loves all of you very much.

She'll come back soon.

Don't cry." Connor looked at the plum blossoms in the yard.

He said calmly, "The cherry blossoms will bloom soon.

"She promised me that she would meet me under the cherry blossom trees.

She won't break her promise." Ethan felt horrible as he looked at the faces of the kids.

He wanted to find Olivia as soon as possible, but the kidnappers were well prepared.

They didn't leave any clues.

He could only hope that Olivia was still alive.

Back on the island, Olivia had just finished eating some cookies.

Her stomach was full, but her heart was empty.

She had gazed at the night sky countless times.
