Beginnings (2)

"Have a good day, Liliana."

Dad smiled at me through the car window and I waved to him slightly, nodding my head in delight.

"You too, dad!"

I cheered, forming a big smile and dad tilted his head to the side. His expression was quite unreadable.

"... Something good will happen today. You just need to look forward to it."

He said which I looked at him questioningly, but before I could ask him some questions, he immediately drove his car away.

(Hmm...? Something good?)

Hearing my own dad say that kind of makes me a bit relieved because it's been suffocating all the while.

Ever since I've met Alex yesterday, I think my condition is a lot better than before.

"I've heard rumors that Willem is the one who killed Viola."

My eyes went wide and I froze on the spot and held my breath.

(What...?)
