My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

I took a step back, lowered my voice, and said, "I'm about to sleep soon. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

There was no response as if no one was there, but I noticed that the shadow under the door never moved.

Then, his shadow flashed and disappeared in the direction of his room.

It was not until the footsteps disappeared that I let out a sigh of relief and murmured to myself, "To fulfill my wish... Is Irvin bringing me to see my child?"
