Daehyun s the shovel back into the dirt and grunts with exertion. You stand behind him, nervously checking the surrounding graveyard. 

“Hey, shine the light back over here. I can’t see ,” Daehyun grunts again as he tosses another shovel full of soil on top of the growing mound.

“Daehyun, I know I’ve said this a hundred times already, but we shouldn’t be doing this.”

Daehyun halts and wipes the back of his hand across his sweaty brow, leaving behind a streak of dirt.
