Who Is The Antagonist?
Episode 02's. The protagonist, Alice (1)

I who had seen the door turned back to my father, but I could not find it. The one who knocked was my mother. He went into the room and sat down where my father was sitting.

I guess I was just hallucinating. According to the soap opera I watched, Alice's parents divorced when Alice was 5 years old. The divorce took me and my mother back to Indonesia leaving my father there alone.

I insisted that I only talk to myself. It made my mother more anxious and took me to the doctor.

I heard a notification sound from my mother's phone. He seems to be busy and taking his time for me for a while. My mom was willing to do her job and I came back alone.

I thought in my mind about the incident. Given my circumstances, I do not have any symptoms that lead to hallucinations.

It wasn't late at night, but I was already feeling very tired. I suddenly thought about the unfinished task I was doing and finished it immediately.

After doing my job, a scream escaped into my ear. As always, it was my mother. Not felt, it was afternoon. I'm downstairs for lunch with my mom.

I walked down the stairs one by one calmly because I was quite used to the environment here.

Arriving there, my mother sat down first and pointed to one of the chairs hinting at me to sit there. I nodded and sat there.

Not long after, some of the servants in my house brought food and arranged it on the table. After they finished preparing, they lowered their heads and left the dining room where my mother and I were.

We had dinner quietly with no one intending to open their voices. A few minutes later, I finished my meal.

I immediately took out my notebook and moved my fingers to describe the thousands of letters that took longer to form a word or even a sentence.

[In this soap opera world, every figure has power. Alice's family has telepathic powers. Only by imagining a certain person, who possessed this power could talk face-to-face like meeting in person.

More like a colored hologram that can walk, talk, even hold objects as he pleases. This power can only be used once a year. This power also uses a lot of energy, in contrast to the duration of its use which is only a little. ]

It was because of this power that I was able to see Alice's father yesterday, even talking a little with him.

I closed my notebook, didn't forget to hide it back so no one would know about me. According to one soap opera about getting into the world of stories, if the person who became the character of ’outside of the story’ was caught by other characters, then the story will be destroyed. Worse, I can't go back to my home world.

It's getting dark, a minute here feels like 30 seconds in my home world. I closed my eyes slowly as I laid myself in bed.

I heard the voice of a man calling the name ’Alice’ walking towards me from a distance. It was so dark here, I could not see it walking towards me clearly, but the sound of it getting closer convinced me.

”Alice? No, you.. Who?” Out of nowhere and when he showed up in front of me and said I wasn't Alice. With my current situation, it is very clear that I am now playing Alice. It was impossible for her to know that I was not Alice.

My eyes getting used to the dark made me start to see my surroundings clearly. Ah, her face feels familiar. The face I saw this afternoon in my room. Maybe Alice's father knew that I wasn't Alice because of her telepathic powers.
