CHAPTER 172

"Daddy...?" Epione asked while she was eating her breakfast. The mansion is quiet and everyone seems like their moods are not in a great state, rather depressing. Although Epione still isn't able to comprehend the situation, she can tell that the atmosphere in the mansion is quite heavy. 

"Yes?" Phileo asked as he continued to feed her. Epione stared at her father's appearance. He looks like he's fighting demons in his sleep. He doesn't look okay and she could tell he's forcing it. 

"Are you okay?" Epione asked, chomping the food that Phileo fed her. "Where's everyone? Why is it so quiet today? Where's Mommy? She didn't even kiss me goodbye..." Epione said with a sad voice, discouraged about how lonely the mansion was.
