The world didn't care about me.
It didn't care in the slightest.
That's what I told myself as I watched my parents' casket lower beneath the dirt. I had nothing without them; the world had taken everything from me.
"Oh, my. What an untimely death." Nonchalant voices spoke as if it was just another piece of news. The many ties my parents had in the business world had proven to be both a blessing and a curse; hundreds of seats were filled, yet not one of them truly cared about their passing.
"I believe they had a son...what was the boys name Josh? No, Jason? We should arrange a marriage between him and Annabel, can you imagine the amount of money he would inherit?" They murmured. I jolted in my chair, and I turned to face them with a glint of violence in my eyes. They choked on their words, looking down and ceasing their chattering. Did they not know I was seated right in front of them? These women were idiots.
The many speeches given by "friends" and business partners lasted for much longer than they needed to. I forced myself to stay until the end; staring blankly at the ground where they lay buried. The people began to blend together, along with their advice to "stay strong", rubbing my shoulder and giving me their condolences. My vision blurred with tears, making the greater amount of faces in the crowd unrecognizable.
My dad's condescending words returned to my head, and I wiped my tears before the last thing he would see would be them falling down my face.
My legs carried me to the limo waiting at the entrance, but half way there, my knees gave out from under me. Dirt and sediment stained the pants of my favorite suit, but I had no emotion left to spend on them.
It all hit me at once; my parents were dead. What would I do now that they were gone?
