(Charlotte's POV)
I couldn't go down for dinner. I couldn't face mum or dad but I heard him knock on my door.
'Queen, you okay?' I heard him ask.
I roll on my back, wirh my gaze fixed on the ceiling. Giving no reply. The room was silent save for the cricket sounds echoing outside.
'Charlotte!' Dad's soft tone turn strict.
'Coming.' With a sigh, I alight from bed and walk to the door. I don't know why but I hesistated. Holding unto the door knob but I don't hold it out.
'Charlotte.' Dad says again.
I open the door this time but it's ajar.
'Hey.' I give a small smile but the stoic countenance on his face discouraged mine and my smile fell.
