Prince Hotel
I Hate You, I Love You

Feeling used but I'm still missing you

And I can't see the end of this

Just wanna feel your kiss against my lips

And now all this time is passing by

But I still can't seem to tell you why

It hurts me every time I see you

Realize how much I need you

Lidya laughed at her son's words, some days Lidya was quite sad and hit with the events of Luckas. However, he realized that he could not continue like that because he still had Ayles.

"I have to forget everything, forget Luckas!! I have to be independent, strong for Ayles' sake" muttered Lidya himself.

"mami bicala what?" ask Ayles.

"ah.no, Ayles.mommy is just thinking of cooking fried chicken-"

"mauu... Ailes mauuu" cried Ayles suddenly.

Lidya smiled "well, dear..."

Ayles again enjoyed his cookies but his eyes saw someone he knew from a distance "mami.deedi.."

Lidya's heart stopped beating when Ayles called daddy "what, baby?" sahut Lidya who pretends not to understand his son's words.

"it..deedi, mami.." he said, pointing forward.

Lidya stared at the location that Ayles pointed to, Lidya saw Luckas who was in his car? '*was that true, Luckas?? Why is his face like that*?'

Luckas' car slowly left, Lidya rushed down to look at the car that had moved away. He also carried Ayles and his groceries while entering the house.

Louis opened the door and welcomed them "hello, little banditlll" Louis said enthusiastically.

"unclleee.." reply Louis was no less enthusiastic while thrusting a package containing three cookies.

Louis looked at the package confusedly, Lidya laughed "happy, Louis.he shared you his favorite cookies that means he likes you very much. If not, do not ever expect him to share with you even if only a cookie." said Lidya while putting his tass shopping.

Louis laughed "really?? thank you, little bandit.."

Ayles laughed as she walked into her room.

Lidya immediately walked into the kitchen "Louis... Did she come here again??"

Louis was surprised "ti..no.why do you say that?"

"really?? or maybe I saw it wrong, I think I saw it but his face looks battered, like it just got hit.."

"maybe you're looking wrong, Lidya.. hey..are you going to cook dinner??" louis tried to divert the conversation.

"of course!!" louis was relieved that Lidya had not asked about Luckas again.

That night, the time has shown almost midnight.However, the eyes of Lidya did not show any signs of wanting to sleep. He walked slowly, turning on his television with a small volume of sound.he did not want to wake Louis and Ayles.

A romantic drama film is being spun on television, seen in the film the woman who cries because the lover who doubts the woman's pregnancy is her flesh and blood. Without Lidya realizing, Lidya shed her tears.she sobbed.how could the impression remind her of herself.

"you promised to forget it, Lidya! Why are you still crying.." muttered Lidya softly to herself. He tried repeatedly to forget Luckas, but always failed.

Louis's bedroom door opened, he looked at Lidya who was sobbing. Slowly she approached her brother "you..all right?".

"Louis..me..I'm really stupid, aren't I?? after everything that happened.I still think about it.I miss it.." isak Lidya.

Louis pulled Lidya's head to dock on his left shoulder.

"i.i hate it, Louis!! But I love him too.. My heart hurts so much because of it but I also crave it!!" isak Lidya's.

"cry.please everything, Lidya.so that you feel relieved.." whispered Louis.

Hearing Louis's words, Lidya's cry grew more and more. Louis could only mute, letting his shoulders impinge on Lidya's tearful outburst.

"You want to go home to Lexington?" bargain Louis after Lidya began to feel relieved.

Lidya was silent, not answering.

"come home.settle yourself..we can celebrate Christmas together there.." said Louis "or you want to go somewhere else? You can leave Ayles to me if you want to travel alone.."

Lidya shook her head "I miss mommy.."

Louis smiled "well, we went home to Lexington. I'm sure Elena won't mind your sudden sabbatical, will she?"

Lidya smiled "maybe, Louis.or I'll be unemployed after returning from Lexington"

"are you serious?"

Lidya chuckled "i'm just kidding, but I'm serious, I don't know if Elena will allow me or not"

"i'm sure he won't ban you, Lidya.."

The next morning, the,

Lidya called Elena.

"Hello, Lidya.." said Elena kindly.

"Elena.I'm sorry I didn't go to work for a few days"

"you don't need to think about it, Lidya. During these three years, you rarely even asked me for permission"

"thank you, Elena. but it looks like I'm going to take a sabbatical.i.e.I want to go home to Lexington for a few days.." said Lidya "I'm so sorry and ashamed of you, Elena"

"what should you be ashamed of, Lidya. You got my permission. I know you haven't been together with your parents for a long time.."

Lidya smiled happily "thank you, Elena.I owe you. You don't have to worry about my work.I'll keep an eye on it and Sheila will keep helping me on the field"

"i believe you, Lidya.."

"oh yeah.one more thing.Can you keep my existence a secret to Luckas?"

"of course.happy vacation, Lidya.." said Elena while ending their phone call.

Elena looked at the figure that was staring at her. The man smiled and thanked Elena as he walked out of Elena's room.
