Bab 145: He Came

Breakfast was a tension-filled affair between the siblings. With their parents gone, it was just the two of them. For reasons known only to their parents, they were given a mansion to occupy outside the palace.

Their mother told them that she wanted them to learn to be independent. The two knew that it was more than that. Between the two, neither broke the silence.

The day felt quite ominous. From the dark clouds that have shrouded the world in darkness to the lack of the morning sun. Nothing felt right.

Between the two, one was worried while the other was trying to read her brother's emotions. On a normal day, Angelo could mask his feelings from his sister.

At the moment, however, he was nowhere near normal. He was distracted. Deep down, he had always known that with each passing day, they were getting closer to the inauspicious time.
