The cemetery was rather remote. Not only were there large thickets around the area, the paths were quite rocky as well.
The thick smog enveloping the area could easily affect one’s sense of direction as well. If headed in the wrong direction the forest would seem like a confusing maze which would make the journey even more dangerous than it was.
Renee was completely immersed in her phone wondering if she should tell Leia about William’s complicated past with Briar. Then suddenly she felt her entire body falling forward…
Renee screamed as she tumbled down a cliff. She hit her head on a large rock going down and instantly faded into unconsciousness.
Meanwhile Stefan and Briar had already arrived at the child’s tomb. A small gravestone stood there forlornly with the baby’s name and death date engraved on it.
“Hi baby! Mommy and Uncle Stefan are here to see you again. How are you feeling today? The weather’s getting kind of cold so I prepared lots of
warm clothes for you. Do you like them?” Briar mumbled as she knelt in front of the grave placing some bags of clothes onto the ground.
Stefan was no longer feeling guilty and instead looked slightly annoyed. However knowing that Briar was mentally ill he remained silent allowing the woman to live in her delusions for now.
Under normal circumstances a fetus wouldn’t be considered a person and in their culture those who set up a tomb for the unborn would be besieged by bad luck. However this child was considered a special case as it was the late Tristan and Briar’s only child.
Stefan had only agreed to bury the fetus after the woman’s constant begging. They had placed it in an expensive coffin and found a powerful shaman to safely bury the child in this secluded area.
Stefan was starting to space out as Briar continued muttering in front of the grave. He would occasionally glance at the cemetery entrance his brow furrowed.
‘Hmph why isn’t that woman here yet? I left her only a mile away from this place and the path is a straight one too. It shouldn’t take her more than twenty minutes to arrive but it’s been over an hour! Where is she?!’
Once Briar was finally finished she looked up and asked “Stef where is Miss Everheart? I’m done talking to my baby now. Should we keep waiting for her?”
Stefan checked his wristwatch and replied tonelessly “Let’s wait a little longer.”
They waited for another thirty minutes but Renee was still nowhere to be found.
Briar wiped her tears her voice quivering with sadness. “Let’s just go Stef I don’t think she’ll be coming anytime soon. I can tell that Miss Everheart doesn’t regret hurting me back then nor does she think she is responsible for my child’s death.”
“Maybe she still sees me as the horrible mistress who destroyed her marriage. Maybe she thinks I deserve to lose my baby and end up this way! She’s probably gone home by now. I mean she’s no saint so why would she visit the grave of my child? Let’s not force her to if she doesn’t want to…”
Stefan fell silent his expression growing colder.
Briar continued “And she kept talking about that artificial uterus procedure back in the car urging us to have more children too! She was just mocking us wasn’t she? It was like she was trying to add insult to
injury! If she’s not genuine in visiting my baby’s grave I don’t need her here and my baby doesn’t need her here either! Let’s just go.”
The man clenched his fists tightly as he had thought the same. He had no idea what Renee was thinking by urging him to have more children when they were on their way to visit a dead baby’s grave.
‘She definitely had bad intentions!’
“You’re right I was too naive. She’s always been a cold-hearted and selfish person; if she really was feeling guilty about her actions she would’ve come to visit the child’s grave a long time ago. She wouldn’t have just disappeared for four whole years.”
Stefan took a deep breath telling himself to keep a clear mind and to stop hoping the woman would change. Thus as dusk approached he drove out of the forest with Briar in his passenger seat.
Under the dim moonlight Renee had finally regained consciousness. Her head was spinning her left leg was fractured and she was unable to move.
