An hour later, the car stopped infront of their house and she run out rashly in her dad's bedroom. She slowly opened the door and walked towards him sleeping soundly on the bed. Elizabeth squats down and held her dad hands.

" I'm really good now. Seeing my beloved daughter came back. I feel more relieved." He patted her back and wore a fix smile.
Elizabeth stare at her gloomy and wary eyes.
"Dad did you know how worried am I there when I knew something bad happened to you? I wanted to flew back here immediately as if I have a superpowers!" She saw her dad smile brightly when she raise her right arms just like what super girl did in the movie. That was one of her dreams to have a drama role in supernatural plot.

" I'm full already, sweetie. Help yourself and take some rest."
" Okay dad. Just call me if you need something Okay?" She saw her dad nodding and
" Good night, dad!" Elizabeth wave to him then she turned off the lights and left the room closed.
