The rest of the entries are about his grief on mother's disappearance. I closed the book and looked up at grandfather.
"What do you plan to do now grandfather?" [Angelica]
"It may be an impossible request, but can you ask Elaine to forgive me?" [King Alex]
"I'm sure that mother will understand..." [Angelica]
"Thank you, Angelica." [King Alex]
"You should rest so that you can recover." [Angelica]
"Yes." [King Alex]
I was about to leave but decided to return to him.
"Is there more you'd like to ask?" [King Alex]
Clueless about why I went back. I kissed him on the forehead.
"Ah." [King Alex]
He showed a smile, I bowed to him and slowly closed the door as I left.
