The Mastermind In Tenassie's funeral home, there was a rule that the departed had to be cremated before the memorial ceremony commenced.

As Raegan waited, reluctance to say goodbye to her grandmother held her heart hostage as if she wished to etch her grandmother's face indelibly into her mind's eye.

When her beloved grandma's body was silently ushered into the cremation chamber, the heavy iron door swung shut.

The finality of it struck her hard.

She could never again see her grandma's smiling face, the person who loved her most in the world.

Her trembling hand reached out and patted the iron door as she sobbed.

"Grandma, have a happy life.

Don't forget me...” Yet, all that met her ears was the echo reverberating through the solid metal.

An hour dragged on, and the iron door swung open once more.

The clerk returned, carrying the urn that now held her grandmother's ashes, and gave them to Raegan.

With a heavy heart, she walked with the urn to the church.

In that solemn chamber, Raegan gently placed the urn on the altar.

Standing in front of her grandmother's picture, she remained in silent reverence, her posture unwavering.

Kendra's well-intentioned offer of food fell on deaf ears, as Raegan could only manage a sip of water amidst her overwhelming grief.

Kendra's sympathy led her to stay by Raegan's side silently, providing a little comfort in this sea of sorrow.

As the evening went on, a figure entered the church.

Luciana, after a long and harrowing journey, had arrived, her initial shock giving way to the stark reality upon seeing Raegan, cloaked in black and lost in grief.

In just two days, Raegan had lost some weight, her features etched with exhaustion and distress.

Luciana longed to offer words of comfort after paying her visit to the deceased but struggled to find a way to comfort Raegan.

Ultimately, she broke the silence, her voice heavy.
