She tried to bury the demon of her past but unfortunately, there were times that it was still haunting her, in a form of nightmare.
'Elle, my daughter, please believe in yourself. Don't let these scums destroy you with their lies. Get a grip of yourself.'
Phantom's face was painted with worries and concerns. He was still hugging Elle when he felt that she finally moved. He released her and held her shoulders to look at her.
Elle's expression was back to normal. Her empty eyes a while ago were now filled with life. She was smiling at Phantom with a grateful look coming from her eyes.
Phantom's hug helped Elle to escape from that darkness which was drowning her at that moment. She felt the familiar fatherly love from that embrace. If her father was alive, he would also do that to make her feel better.
"Sorry Master for making you worry. I am okay now. Thank you for comforting me." She said to Phantom as she felt grateful to him.
