Today is a holiday.
Today is a special day for Alice.
Alice came out of her room.
He sees all the family members gathered in the living room and wishes Kate a happy birthday.
Currently they will be busy preparing for Kate's birthday event held every year.
Alice smiled.
He then approached Kate.
"Happy birthday, brother."
"Thank you Alice.."
"Sorry about yesterday, brother."
"It's okay Alice.
It wasn't your fault, anyway.
We also made up.
You don't have to worry."
"Thank God, then, Brother."
"Oh yeah, you're coming tonight, right?
Brother has already provided a special dress for you."
"Sorry Brother.
But as usual I'll help Rihanna's mother prepare for everything."
"Alice, you have the right to come to Sister's birthday.
No one can ban you."
Kate understands the worries Alice is feeling.
Not just from his mother but also from his friends.
"I'll try, brother."
"So, I'm expecting Alice."
"Yes, I'll come Brother."
"Then I'm very happy to hear it."
Deep in Alice's heart, she also actually wants to be present at Kate's birthday event.
It's just that circumstances are not very possible.
His presence must get a negative response from people who come later.
Including her own aunt.
Every year her aunt forbade her from attending Kate's birthday party.
Her aunt said that her presence would ruin the event.
And that made him reluctant to come.
Alice smiled.
At the very least, he must prepare what is needed for the evening event.
Even if he does not attend later, he will exert his strength as proof that he loves Kate so much.
--
All preparations are ready.
Outdoor themed birthday events.
Until the birthday event is held in the yard of the house.
Kate and her parents are currently welcoming the guests.
Laura and Sergio also stood beside them.
"You're so pretty, baby.
I'm sure all the guests who came must have been amazed to see your beauty."
said Marine to his daughter.
"Thank you Mother.
Oh yeah, where's Alice Mom?
I haven't seen him."
"Mom doesn't know Kate either.
Never mind, don't think about him.
You should focus on your birthday.
You can't disappoint the guests who have come, baby."
Kate then returned to welcome the guests.
He occasionally circulated his gaze, looking for Alice's whereabouts.
But he had not seen Alice there.
Alice is currently helping Rihanna's mother clean up.
"Miss, why isn't Miss getting ready yet?
The show will start soon.
I can do this all by myself."
Alice smiled.
"Alice didn't come to the show, ma'am."
Rihanna's mother was not surprised by Aliece's reply.
Because he knows the reason.
"Is it Mrs Marine that forbids Miss from coming?"
"No Ma'am.
It was just that Alice was uncomfortable with such an event.
People must be a lot there.
Alice also wants to help Mom here."
Rihanna's mother smiled.
Actually, he knew that Alice was lying to him right now.
Over the years, she has known Alice's personality.
Alice was a good girl and so strong.
She witnesses how Alice has been treated so badly.
Often he felt pity and at the same time proud of the figure of Alice so strong to face everything.
"Alright then Miss."
Alice slowly moved her legs.
His eyes stared at the event.
Many people were there.
Even all of his friends at school were invited to the event.
"I'm sorry Kate.
I can't come."
Alice had considered it several times.
And she decided not to come to Kate's birthday party.
Even though Kate had persuaded him, he still felt reluctant to come there.
He didn't want to ruin Kate's special.
--
Alice cleaned some tables away from the event venue.
"Looks like you fit that outfit perfectly."
marcell.
Alice turned her body.
Right now Kesha, Marcell and also Dion were standing before him with disdainful gazes.
"Thank God you weren't at Kate's birthday party.
Because if you were there, the show would end in chaos.
You yourself know that everyone does not like your presence.
You better stand here and do your job as you should."
Alice was silent and did not respond to their words.
"But it looks like he's starting to realize where Cell's supposed to be."
"Hem, you're right Dion.
I congratulate you.
But until now I still don't understand why Kate's so good to you."
"Oh I know Cell.
All this time she pretended to be a good and obedient girl.
She tricked Kate by showing her innocent face.
Even Rayn managed to get into his trap.
You sly girl!"
Alice clenched her hands tightly.
Their words hurt him a lot.
"I have to do another job, brother.
I'm sorry."
Alice carried a tray of glasses on the table.
Alice intended to go and pass them.
But it was unexpected that he fell because his leg was cut off by one of them.
As a result, the glasses broke and scattered on the floor.
The three of them laughed when they saw him fall.
"Your eyes don't work at all."
They laugh back.
"What are you guys doing?"
The voice instantly made the three turn around.
Alice also looked towards the figure that had just come.
"You guys want to create a scene here?
Are you guys trying to ruin Kate's birthday?
Aren't you his friends?
You guys should have kept your attitude."
"Ell, we can give you an explanation.
This girl who has made a fuss.
He walked without looking around.
Until he finally fell.
You see those glasses?
He himself dropped it.
You sloppy girl!"
Alice looked towards Ell.
Either Ell would believe their words or not.
Alice then picked up the broken glass scattered on the floor.
Unexpectedly Ell helped him.
This surprised Alice.
And so did those three people.
They looked at Ell in astonishment.
Alice paused for a moment, staring at Ell who was picking up the broken glass.
When he finished, Ell stood up and approached his friends.
"Ell, you..."
Marcell's sentence was broken.
"Kate must be looking for you.
Go back to the party and don't make a fuss again."
ell said with a warning tone.
Kesha, Marcell and Dion finally left there and returned to the party.
Ell looked at Alice briefly.
Alice immediately moved on and wanted to thank Ell, but the man hurried away from there.
Alice paused for a moment and then carried the broken glass into the kitchen.
--
Alice stepped into Rihanna's mother's room not far from the kitchen.
She smiled as she saw Rihanna's mother sitting on the edge of the bed folding her clothes.
"Mother Rihanna.."
"Miss Alice..."
Rihanna's mother immediately stopped her activities.
"Does Miss need my help?"
Alice then sat down next to Rihanna's mother.
"I just want to be with Mom here.
Can't Ma?"
"Of course Miss.
I'm so happy to see Miss here."
Alice smiled and then laid her body on the bed.
He put his head on Rihanna's mother's thigh.
"Have something happened?
Miss can tell me."
ask Rihanna's mom.
Rihanna could see the sadness on Alice's face.
"Nothing happened, ma'am.
I'm just tired and want to sleep on Mom's lap.
It's been a long time since I graduated Junior High.
I'll sleep well every night I sleep on Mom's lap."
Alice smiled.
Rihanna's mother then gently stroked Alice's head.
"Mother.."
"Hem?"
"Alice wants to thank Mom."
"Thank you for what Miss?"
"Thank you for loving Alice so much.
You've been taking very good care of me since I was a kid."
"Sama-sama Miss.
It's my duty to love Miss.
Every time I see Miss, I will think of Mr. Raphael being so kind to me.
His kindness made me so respectful of him.
No wonder she has a good personality.
I'm sure Miss Mother is a good woman figure as well."
"Mother's right.
My mother was a very nice woman, Mom.
Even though we haven't met, I'm sure you must love me so much."
"Patience Miss.
I believe that someday, Miss will be reunited with Ms. Sera."
Alice smiled and then nodded.
"I've always been patient waiting for that day to come Mom."
Unwittingly someone stands there and hears Alice talking to Rihanna's mother.
At first he wanted to check the broken glass in the kitchen.
After seeing the broken glass was already in the trash, he intended to return.
But when he turned around, he heard Alice's voice from Rihanna's mother's room.
He approached the room and heard everything.
