Chapter 292 Symon's Funeral

As expected, Sean was not found in the living room. He stayed in the bedroom where Symon used to live.

When the lights were turned on, Shawn saw him holding a picture in his hand, hugging his knees, and crouching in a dark corner, as if he was out of place in the world, or he wanted to leave the world.

"Sean."

Shawn and Nancy walked over and called out to him, but he didn't react at all.

"Sean." Nancy gave him a gentle push, calling out to him cautiously.

Perhaps because Symon liked Nancy the most when he was alive, Sean finally responded to her this time. He slowly raised his head and looked at Nancy with empty eyes.

Looking at Sean's haggard face, even Shawn looked sullen, let alone Nancy.

They did not know how long he had not slept well and eaten well. In fact, since Symon died, Sean wouldn't have eaten anything if no one forced him to.

He probably didn't sleep last night, and there were dark circles under his eyes. The flesh of his face was a bit flabby, and the messy beard made him look slovenly. Anyway, Sean looked downcast and gloomy.

Nancy looked at him with distress and said, "Sean, don't wallow in despair. Jinx will be sad about it if he knows you are so down."

Sean was silent for a while before asking in a hoarse voice, "Will he feel bad?"

Nancy nodded affirmatively. "Yes."

Sean stared at the photo in his hand blankly. His eyes had dried up, and no more tears were shed.

"But I'm just like a disposable pet for him."

He had always known that Symon only took him home out of sympathy and never took him to heart.

Nancy said, "Pets can be family too. Adolph, Harley, Macy, Marcy, and other animals are my family. I care about them. I am afraid they are sick, and I want them to be happy because they are my family."

Sean was silent. Shawn couldn't stand it. He reached out and pressed a certain acupuncture point on Sean's neck.

Then Sean passed out.

"Let's take him to the hospital. I know a psychiatrist who can help him."

Nancy nodded and went with them to the hospital.

It was a long time before Sean woke up. He opened his eyes to find himself in the hospital and didn't struggle. He just stared at the ceiling blankly.

The door to the ward was opened. Then a young man in casual clothes walked in with a steaming bowl of porridge.

"Are you hungry? Have some porridge."

Sean looked at the young man but said nothing.

The young man didn't care either and just smiled gently. Then he started chatting with Sean as if they had been friends who had known each other for a long time.

After Sean started the treatment, Nancy was ready to go to school.

She asked for leave for a long time. After Symon's funeral was arranged, everyone had to live their lives and move forward.

And they would keep Symon in their mind forever.

When she returned to school again, Nancy was a little homesick. When she went to the class, she wondered how to answer when her classmates asked her why she had taken such a long leave.

"Nancy?"

A familiar voice came from behind her. Nancy turned around with her small school bag on her back, and a figure immediately hugged her.

"It's really you, Nancy. I thought I mistook you for someone else. You have not come to school for a long time. If the teachers didn't say that you asked for a leave, I would have thought that you transferred to another school. I even went to your home to look for you, but I did not find you."

It was Jane who hugged Nancy. She missed Nancy so much, hugging her and rubbing her face on Nancy's.
