David Mayfield, head bowed, stood with one arm protectively around the shoulders of his wife, Tess. His three girls, three out of four, stood with him. Benny, his son, stood apart. David's family were grieving the loss of their niece, their cousin. Imploding, crushing, yet David was more concerned for the health of his pregnant wife. Since she'd heard the news, Tess had become a shell, barely eating enough to keep the unborn child alive. The man, wearied beyond his years, looked up at the crowds milling about the hall. He recognised only a few, but they all knew Aroha, and they all wanted to say goodbye. His eldest, Riley was supposed to be officating this ceremony, but she'd not spoken since they arrived. "Riley," he murmured lightly, heart bubbling with pain and misery. "You sure you want to do this honey?"
