Time passed in the blink of an eye, three days had passed since Merry left the house.
There was still no news of Erika's whereabouts.
Everyone Samuel sent to investigate gave him relatively the same report.
Erika seems to have completely disappeared from the world, as if the earth had swallowed her up whole.
Samuel was seen walking back and forth in his house every day, looking as if nothing had changed in his life.
However, it was the little things that made him realize everything had changed.
For example, when he wore a tie, he couldn't help but call out Erika to help him put it on.
Or when he couldn't put his cufflinks on, he stretched out his hand, and the smiling woman would come to his aid.
Now… every late night when he had trouble sleeping, the glass of warm milk was no longer by his bed.
And it got worse when Merry refused to go home.
