When Eli got home from work, he frowned at the tension inside his house. He found his mother sitting in the living room. She looked sad and she didn't even welcome him home. It was odd. Aside from that, he didn't hear Bell's or Neon's voices. He suddenly panicked and ran to the second floor without bothering to take off his coat.
[What's wrong with this idiotic son of mine? Didn't he see me? He didn't even greet me?] Jojie questioned mentally while following him with her eyes upstairs. He could hear him knocking on some doors. [What's he panicking for?]
Belle opened the door of her room and found Eli standing there with worried a expression on his face. "Eli. Wel-" Before she could finish her words, Eli pulled her into a hug. It was so sudden that her heart started palpitating. She couldn't even find any words to say.
(What is happening?! Calm your heart, idiot Ceres!)
[It is your heart, you moron!]
