He clung to lan’s hand, his eyes murky betraying no emotion.
“Promise me

The hand in lan’s suddenly lost all strength
lan held on tighter as the doctors began to work on his grandfather. The world around him seemed surreal, and he
couldn’t hear what they were saying.
His eyes were fixated on his grandfather’s face, watching a single tear slide down his wrinkled cheek.
Only then did lan realize how much his grandfather had aged during his absence.

grandfather’s side.
Now that their grandfather was gone, the person hurting the most was surely lan
Ryan only patted him once before pulling his hand back it felt like he was touching a statue
lan was so stiff his hand still clutching his grandfathers, unwilling to let go
Other Raymond family members also arrived to discuss the older mans funeral arrangements
They talked for a long time noticing that lan sat there the entire time, not uttering a single word
He didnt cry and his face showed no grief

calm.
Everyone was watching him Some even whispered amongst themselves
“Holden raised fur wasn’t he? How come hes not shedding a single teat?
But the whisper was too soft lan didn’t hear it
Perhaps even if he had he wouldnt have said anything
He simply stood up glanced at the body covered in white, and after a few seconds of adence, began grandfather’s
funeral
Then he walked past everyone and left the room
Ryan watched his back, feeling as if something was stuck in his throat leaving him unable to speak
