A chest.
He opened it.
Inside, there were small bones.
And a necklace.
Elvira recognized him.
I had seen it in the drawings.
Lucia.
Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
—I’m sorry… I’m so sorry…
Suddenly, the air changed.
The wind blew strongly.
And the girl appeared in front of her.
But he no longer seemed sad.
He looked at her calmly.
As if someone had finally listened to her.
—Thank you… —whispered a voice that seemed to come from nowhere.
And then…
He disappeared.
Silence returned.
Elvira remained there, kneeling, with the chest in her hands.
