The heavy rain was still pouring.
The image of an adult and three kids kneeling in the rain made everyone sad.
Luna turned around, and, as soon as she caught sight o f the four of them, tears started falling from her eyes.
She was not a heartless person at all.
When she decided to part ways with Joshua, not only was it difficult for her to leave Joshua behind but the three children as well.

Luna closed her eyes. It felt as if a knife was piercing through her heart.
It was so close, so close.
