Alice looked at herself in front of the mirror with her hands tightly clasped.
She was done dressing up and soon she was going to the altar.
His heart beats so fast.
He was so nervous and it felt like he wanted to run away at this moment.
Suddenly a hand held his hand.
Alice looked towards the owner of the hand.
Kate smiled at him.
"You're so pretty Alice."
He knew his brother must have intended to calm himself down.
"You don't have to be nervous, baby."
Yeah, Kate must have known her nervousness.
Seen from his face that was so agitated earlier.
"Sister, I just..."
Alice could not finish her sentence.
"So I don't know Alice.
You just have to walk with your eyes looking straight ahead, right up to the pastor.
You can get through it."
Kate stroked Alice's shoulder gently.
Alice then nodded her head.
Yeah, he can get through it.
A few moments later, Mario came to pick her up.
Alice walked towards her smiling uncle.
He held Mario's arm.
Before leaving, Alice looked back.
Kate nodded at him.
Alice and Mario then walked towards the altar.
Arriving at the altar, Alice saw many people standing while looking at her.
All eyes were on him.
And of course it makes him nervous.
Alice closed her eyes for a moment, trying to regain her strength.
His eyes then looked straight ahead.
And it looked like a man in a full suit was standing with eyes staring at him.
The figure still gave him a flat look.
His steps stopped when he reached Ethan.
Mario hands Alice to Ethan.
Alice's heart rippled as Ethan's hand touched her.
They stood before the priest and took the wedding vows.
Upon hearing Ethan take the wedding vows, Alice looked at the man.
Without realizing it, tears escaped from her eyes.
It felt like for a moment he heard someone was promising in front of everyone to look after and protect him.
Alice returned to shed her tears.
It was as if the sentence was not real.
His marriage to Ell was only a tool to restore their family's good name.
Now it was time for Alice to take the wedding vows.
"I...."
"I...."
Alice could not continue her sentence.
His eyes looked towards the Priest and also towards the Cross which stood upright within the Church.
(I will lie to God and many others.
Actually I can't do this.
What should I do God?)
The whispering sounds of the people who were there began to sound because Alice had not yet said the Wedding Oath.
Ell stayed in his place.
Not intending to look towards Alice who was standing next to him.
"Miss Alice, can you continue the marriage?
You can cancel it if you don't approve of this marriage."
said Reverend.
That made the Dakota Family nervous.
"What is that kid doing?
He intends to destroy everything and humiliate our family in the presence of our relatives?"
Mario could only remain silent with his eyes staring at Alice.
She was sure Alice would not do what her wife had just said.
"Alice darling..."
laura said, hoping Alice would speak soon.
Alice slowly took a breath and then opened her voice.
"I'm sorry, pastor.
I was just too nervous.
Now I'm ready."
The priest smiled.
"All right, Miss Alice.
Now you can say the wedding vows."
Hearing Alice's words just now made the Dakota Family finally able to breathe with relief.
Alice then uttered the wedding vow.
When she finished, Alice's eyes looked back at the Cross.
(I'm sorry God, I don't know what else to do. I can't hurt them.).
"Now you are legal to be a couple of Husband and Wife.
You can kiss Miss Alice."
From the tail of her eyes, Alice saw Ell change her position to face him.
Is that guy really gonna kiss her?
Alice slowly shifted her body.
Now she is confronted by Ell, who is her husband.
Alice looked down, not daring to look at Ell.
Slowly he felt his head covering open.
Alice clenched her hands tightly.
Moments later Alice felt a kiss clinging to her forehead.
Alice looked straight ahead after Ell finished kissing her.
For a moment his eyes met those of Ell who was also staring at him.
Ell's gaze was instantly sidetracked after hearing the sound of people clapping.
Kate is currently shedding tears in her place.
He was saddened to realize that Ell was married to someone else.
Then she wiped her tears.
Trying to convince her that nothing will change between the two of them.
The marriage is not real and everything will be back to how it was.
Ell will come back to him.
After the wedding ceremony is over, then proceed with the next event.
All events went according to what was expected.
The Dakota family returns home and gathers to discuss their next plans.
Ell and Alice have changed.
"Do you have to go tonight Ell?"
ask Mario.
"Yes Uncle."
"Well, if that's your decision."
"Alice, you can take care of your things, baby."
"Aunt will help you Alice."
Alice smiled and nodded.
She and Laura then went to her room.
Arriving at the room, Alice began to stuff her clothes into the suitcase.
"Alice..."
"Yes Bi..."
Alice stopped her activities and looked towards Laura.
Laura smile.
He then asked Alice to sit on the bed.
Laura stroked Alice's cheek gently.
"From now on, you should call Auntie Mom.
Because after all you've been Ell's wife."
"But Bi, this wedding.."
"This marriage isn't real and one day you and Ell may go their separate ways.
But remember baby, even if your marriage is only temporary, but Auntie wants you to do this wedding as you should.
Auntie knew Ell would be bad to you Alice.
Aunt please hold on.
Ell just still doesn't understand everything.
Hang on, baby, hem?"
Alice smiled and nodded her head.
"I'm sorry Aunt Alice.
All this time Auntie let you suffer like this."
"No Bi, Auntie didn't do anything wrong."
Alice shook her head.
"You always sacrifice yourself, baby.
You even have to lose your dream."
"It's okay Bi.
I've given it all away."
"Auntie loves you so much Alice.
You're like Aunt's biological daughter.
Aunt always pray for your happiness.
Hope you get your own happiness soon."
Alice shed her tears.
"Thank you so much Bi."
Alice and Laura then hugged.
Alice spilled her feelings in Laura's arms.
--
Kate follows Ell from behind, trying to talk to the man.
Lately Ell has been avoiding him.
"All..."
call Kate from behind.
Ell did not stop his steps.
"Ell, please stop."
kate said in a desperate tone.
Ell stopped his steps.
Kate approached Ell.
"Hurry up, tell me what you want to tell me."
ell said in a cold tone.
"If I talk to me, look me in the eye at least."
Ell took a breath and then turned around.
"What exactly do you want to tell me?"
"I just want to say that I don't want you to be like this anymore Ell.
Until when do you keep avoiding me?"
Kate looked at Ell with a sad look.
"I have no reason to meet you Kate."
"Even if I wanted to see you?"
Kate's eyes slowly began to glaze over.
"You chose this path Kate yourself."
"You're still using that as an excuse to avoid me?
You know for yourself we have absolutely no other reason."
"But you don't have to ask me to marry Kate!
Even if they force me to marry, I don't want to hear that sentence from you."
"Well, I know I was wrong.
But would you marry me if I didn't?"
"At least I didn't hear that sentence from you."
Because basically, Ell will do whatever Kate wants from her.
The girl also asked him to marry.
He was disappointed, very.
The girl he loved asked him to marry someone else.
Kate lowered her head.
Well then, there was no way for him to make Ell willing to forgive him.
Ell leaves Kate.
And there Alice also heard everything.
When he wanted to get out, he accidentally heard Ell's talk with Kate.
She believes that Ell loves Kate.
Seen from the look of disappointment on his face when he said that Kate was the reason to marry him.
Alice's guilt returned.
If only she had not agreed then, Kate would not have had to ask Ell to marry her.
And the relationship between the two will be fine.
The driver put Ell and Kate's suitcase in the trunk.
All the family members escorted Ell and Alice away.
Ell and Alice then parted and gave a hug.
Alice hugs all the family members, but except for Marine.
Marine turned his face away and dodged as Alice was about to give him a hug.
"Be careful, dear.."
"Good Mom."
"Take care of your health, baby."
mario said to Alice.
"Akj will take care of my Uncle."
"All right, we're leaving."
"Be careful on the road."
Ell and Alice get in the car.
They both sit in the back.
Before leaving, Ell and Alice waved their hands
Eventually the car drove up and left the yard.
During the journey there was only silence between the two of them.
Ell stared straight ahead and occasionally played her hp.
Alice looked outwards.
He did not dare to look beside her.
It feels like a very gripping atmosphere.
What if they were just two?
They were in the same room later.
He must be the one to start it all.
