Trapped in Brother Love
TCS 1'S

At the Praja Hotel, two beautiful women stand behind the reception desk. One of the two looks much prettier, with makeup that is so natural, but can make it look more stunning. The name tag on the shirt she wore was Alice Lorina. Yeah, that's the pretty girl's name.

Where the hell is he? Didn't he come today? Alice's mind was repeatedly seen glancing at the clock on her wrist.

Alice looks restless waiting for someone she wants to see every day, admiring someone in her heart is what Alice does and what Alice admires is her own boss. General Manager at Praja Hotel.

An hour had passed, Alice was still hoping to see the man she admired. Alice looked back at the elevator where the figure she was always waiting for was seen. Shortly after, the elevator door opened and from inside came out a figure admired by Alice. Men with a stocky body and a face that is so handsome, making Alice and many other women will not get tired of looking at the man.

"A truly beautiful sight," muttered the woman standing beside Alice. Alice who heard that admitted it in her heart.

Now I can finally go home quietly after seeing her. If only he felt what I felt. If only he liked me as much as I liked him. Aware Alice, awake. He never even glanced at you. Alice spoke in her heart, and prepared to go home because her work hours would be over in fifteen minutes.

Alice, who had just arrived home, was shocked to see her mother stuffing her clothes into a suitcase. "Where are you going?" alice asked in a panic as she thought her mother would leave her.

"You've come home. Clean your things! Because tonight we're leaving here" Esme told Alice.

"Where are we going?" alice asked increasingly confused by what her mother said.

"Didn't you always ask where your father is? Today I'm going to meet you with your father. He'll pick us up to stay with him" Esme replied, leaving Alice speechless trying to digest her mother's words.

"What are you waiting for? Pack quickly! Soon your father will come" Esme snapped at Alice, who quickly exited her mother's room, and went to her room, which was right next to her.

Arriving at her room, Alice fell silent again. Alice obviously felt happy if at the end of the day Alice would meet the man whom Alice had been questioning her existence, but somehow Alice also felt that something would happen to her.

Alice tried to think positively, breathe deeply and give thanks for finally meeting her father.

An hour passed. The sound of a car stopping right in front of her house rang out, Alice who had just finished cleaning her belongings peeked out of her bedroom window. "Is that him? Is that my dad?" he muttered with teary eyes rushing out of the room.

Alice's tears trickled when she saw her mother and the man she had just seen hugging, the love between the two and it made Alice even more sure if the man was really her father.

Esme lets go of her embrace, when she realizes Alice's whereabouts. Esme and the man looked towards Alice who was still speechless with teary eyes looking at them. "Alice. You don't want to hug your father?" ask Esme.

Alice who heard it all quickly rushed into the man's arms, letting go of all her cries and longing all along. Alice was really happy. "Dad's sorry for everything" said the man whom Alice didn't even know her name.

"Dad doesn't need to apologize, seeing you here is enough for me. I miss you so much, "Alicia answered, holding her arms together, enjoying the warmth of being in the arms of a father.

Happiness enveloped the three, Alice and her parents enjoyed some time with a little chat about their plans ahead. What Esme said earlier was true, if her father would bring Alice and her mother to live together, starting a happy life.

Thank you, Lord. I feel very happy today. Inner Alice.
