The Greatest Monster

Shin had many questions that he wanted to ask his daughter in that moment.

Why did she lay in the house with those dragons instead of out here with them?

Had Abaddon or any of them done anything strange to her?

Why didn't these French toast sticks taste like the ones you buy in the grocery store?

Okay, so maybe not all of his questions were as dire as the rest. But they were still very pressing.

And yet, he was afraid to ask them. He didn't want to compromise the fact that his daughter was talking to him again by making her upset.

So instead, he asked something much simpler.

"Can I hug you?"

Fiona never seemed like she was going to deny him for even a second.

Though she did seemed a bit fearful of what hugging him would feel like.

When he leaned in and took the initiative, she didn't pull away and hugged him back.
