On his way back home, he felt empty as by the end of this year he will be left alone again by his parents. He got this message at Adrian's birthday party where Oriana’s family was invited as well. Mr. Horus was discussing his business progress with Mr. Summer and mentioned about his upcoming project.

The day after Adrian’s birthday, he was informed by Mr. Horus that he was going to start a new business company in Hong Kong and planned to bring his wife as she was his business partner and needed some advice from her. Upon hearing this, he asked about Adrian and Mr. Horus said he hasn't thought about it yet. Adrian, who accidentally heard about this while visiting them at his father's room, started to cry. He was crying the whole day until he fell sick. After discussing everything, Mr. Horus planned to bring Adrian with him to Hong Kong as he could still attend school in Hong Kong since he was just in his primary school. As for Eleo who was in secondary school, it was important for him to attend school. His father also mentioned that they will be leaving after Christmas since they needed to prepare for Adrian's school. Eleo, who had no choice, just listened to his dad about his plans and agreed to it.

During Eleo's school break, he spent most of his time studying in his room without interacting much with his family members. He tried to get used to their absence later when they left for Hong Kong. He continued avoiding his family members even after the school reopened. He started to leave the house earlier than usual and came back from school later than he used to. When Mrs. Horus questioned regarding this, he insisted that he had extra classes to attend and group meetings as some reasons for his actions.

While at school, Estella noticed Eleo's behavior, asked him if he had any problem, and told him that he could share it with her. He briefly mentioned his parents' decisions and he got used to their business trips. Estella saw Eleo's pitiful reaction and she began to stay with him after school. Even though Eleo rejected her offer, she adamantly stayed with him. Both of them did their homework and Eleo also helped Estella with her studies. In the midst of them studying together, Eleo felt that Estella was a great friend and he hoped his friendship would last longer.

Despite their busy schedule, they went through their final examinations and last semester break came right. The day began to chill more than before, Eleo got lonelier as well. After a week into their holidays, Adrian knocked on Eleo's room door. At first, Eleo ignored it, but Adrian kept on knocking on the door and Eleo opened the door with a stern face. Adrian, looking at his brother's serious face, almost teared up and even his voice started to shake, he said "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to disturb you..." Eleo dumbfounded and tried to calm his brother. Eleo asked Adrian the reason for him to knock on the door. Adrian answered, "You didn't spend much time with me. Let's go to Oriana's house. I miss both of you."

Nevertheless, Oriana knew that Adrian forced Eleo to her house but she welcomed them wholeheartedly. While playing with Adrian, Oriana noticed that Eleo looked dazed and gloomy. Adrian mentioned his studies in Hong Kong later and said that he would miss Oriana very much. At that moment, Oriana remembered that Eleo's parents and Adrian were leaving after Christmas day. Thus she welcomed both of them to her house throughout that holiday as they can spend some time together. Upon hearing this, Adrian was overwhelmed with happiness and shook Eleo's hand happily. Eleo just smiled while patting Adrian's head. Behind the smile, Oriana saw loneliness through Eleo's eyes.
