My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

After a long time, Minnie came up and saw me squatting on the ground. She was at a loss for words when she saw me. She could not help but sigh, "Ah, you both..."

"Minnie, I want to be left alone!" I yelled, exhausted beyond belief. I got up, left the study, went straight into the bedroom, and locked the door.

I had been lying bed in a daze until midnight, when I was suddenly woken up by a nightmare.

I noticed that there was no one around. I got up and poured myself a glass of water. I looked at the time and saw that it was three in the morning. Even if I went back to bed, I probably would not be able to fall back asleep.

I hadn't eaten anything for dinner. So, I went downstairs and found that Minnie had left some food in the kitchen for me to eat. However, after taking a few bites, I couldn't stomach them anymore.

When I went back upstairs, I subconsciously took a peek in the study. There was no one there, and everything in the room that was broken had been cleaned up.

It seemed that Hendrix did not return all night. When I got back to the bedroom, I read the e-mail sent by the Fantasia Company.

It didn't take long for the weather to get cold. The second snowfall in Jarold City had arrived just as predicted.

The whole yard was now covered with snow. Someone in the neighborhood had already begun shoveling them away to prevent it from causing any traffic disruptions.
