sorry for the late reply ^^

Her worries had eased as Arsenio pressed his nose to Zulema's head. Glancing between the two she nodded in response, voice failing her in the moment. The way her mother had said it, a pretty place to sleep forever, further contributed to calming her anxious thoughts.

She wished there were flowers to line the grave with. While she hadn't been very close with Leona, she had made an internal note to come back with the return of flowers and further decorate. For now, the girl would try to aid her parents in whatever they had planned. Zulema wasn't sure how to respond on the topic of remembering the girl. Leona seemed quiet, stoic almost to Zulema. She hadn't failed to notice the competitiveness Leona had around her brother, the confidence.

A faint sadness had registered in her as she thought of Jack and Leona. She wasn't sure how she would handle her siblings absence, it was difficult to think about. Zulema wished Jack would return in the moment, perhaps he could spend time among her siblings, drown out the longing for Leona, the grief.

❝She was pretty quiet around us, but I know that she was always messing around with Jack. They were always wrestling or teasing each other.❞ Zulema's eyes trained back on her mother after wandering around the grave.

There was a feeling of regret, she wished she had known the girl more.
