Ephemeral: lasting for a very short time

He reached home and when he was scrolling through the social media in his phone laying on his bed, he noticed a post from the University confession account.

"What the-" he suddenly got up to sit.
He was still in shock, hoping it to be a prank or a bad dream.

But sadly it wasn't.

He clicked on the comments to see people confessing about their crush on her, or saying rest in peace.

When the fvck did this happen!

Then he remembered, she usually come to him to talk to him in University but she didn't came today!

She was absent...which wasn't normal for her to be. She was a regular student. As she always wanted to see Shrinkhal around.

He was feeling extreme guilt and he didn't knew why.

Tears formed in his eyes.
She was his classmate, whatever she was doing was a different thing.

He saw her daily, she tried to talk to him daily and he wasn't nice to her.

He recieved a call, he looked at the name

Kim Yoona
calling....
(Accept/decline)

He accepted the call.

"Hey did you hear that?.."

He was too shocked to speak
"Hey listen, SR its okay"

"It wasn't your fault, she was murdered"

"What?" Shrinkhal let out in shock.

"Yes, she was definitely murdered so brutally"

"Why? How? where?"
He was shocked, she wasnt that bad person whom could get murdered though.

"Police is investigating, but the thing is..."
"They couldn't find a single evidence related to the murderer"

"What the..."

"It's okay, you calm down" Yoona said

"I was never nice to her"

"SR it was HER attitude, it's not your fault and please keep calm, you can not like everyone in this world! Sometimes there are people whom you dislike, don't blame anything on yourself okay?"

Shrinkhal nodded "Okayy, thanks"

"And yeah there's a 5 day leave, at University.."

"You rest now, don't think much and let's meet tomorrow...at her funeral"

he said, adding a "bye"

All He could say was a "bye" in reply.
Her words did comfort her, but he couldn't her but still be in shock of her death. Who could kill her?

Next day, at her funeral...

Wearing a black coat, he watched her friends cry.
Everyone there was in a black attire

Her mother was having no expression and clearly, she was tired of crying.

His dad was near her coffin holding her pale hands.

Her rest body was covered.
They said it was not in a condition to be shown.

Yoona stood beside him as a company.
"Don't think much SR"

He just stood expression less in grief seeing everyone so sad.

"What do you think, who did this to her" he finally spoke.

Yoona was clueless herself.
Arya joined them, "nobody knows...maybe her ex?"

"She definitely had affairs with alot of men" she added.

"Can we not talk trash about her at her own funeral please" Shrinkhal requested, he looked angry.
Arya decided to keep quiet, he has scary eyes when he's angry.

"I need some time alone please"
He said after taking a deep breath telling them 'its time for you both to leave' so they back away from him.

He looked forward to Eris's picture on a big frame with few candles around it, he can't believe she's dead. He expected her to come to him at any moment and ask him to go hangout with her. And this time he would say yes.

He was guilty for a crime he didn't do.

Police entered the hall, and asked questions to her family and friends about her.
Shrinkhal went to the police and asked, "what's the case sir"

"Who are you?" They asked
Ofcourse, they can't let information out to anyone who's stranger.

"I'm her friend, we were close" he didn't cared, he wanted the information.

"She was murdered, and was found in an alleyway"
"She was stabbed 20 times in face and 30 times in heart, and the killer tried to take few body parts out, the killer was definitely a psycho"
