Chapter 2: Chapter 2
Alia dialed the number of her father on her phone, and Luis immediately answer the phone.
"Yeah, darling?" Luis said with a teasing voice.
"How did my last name become Armstrong? It's supposed to be Hemlock." Alia looks annoyed while talking on the phone.
"Because Marco is Armstrong. His name is Marco Armstrong." Luis said.
"So? You made me come here without telling me exact information about that Armstrong. And besides, I am the grandma here, and not him!" Alia shouts on the phone.
Alia hang up the phone and Luis seems annoyed, he wanted to throw the phone but realize that it's important than the other things.
"No, I should throw the book," Luis said holding tight of the phone.
Luis goes to his bookshelf and throws three books.
"That's right, I like it." Luis smirk.
Alia realizes that Alberto is listening to all her conversations with her father.
"Ahm, Alberto.." She was about to say it but Alberto interrupt her.
"It's fine Ms. Alia. I already know." Alberto said with a smile.
"But how?" Alia asked.
"Mr. Armstrong told me that you're not a human. And I already know because your skin tone is not normal like others." Alberto said.
"So, you know it. Well, I think I have so many things to learn now that you are with me." Alia said with a smile.
"You can rely on me, Ms. Alia," Alberto said while focusing on the way.
They arrive at the Armstrong mansion.
Alia saw that the mansion is really big and well designed.
"Are you Ms. Alia?" An old man's voice said.
Alia turn around and saw Marco Armstrong in the wheelchair.
"Are you Armstrong? The person that handled our company for 78 years?" Alia asked.
Marco smile and nods at her.
"Nice meeting you Ma'am," Marco said with a smile.
"Marco, please. Call me Alia. You look too old than me." Alia said.
Marco nod again and smile.
"Yes, Alia," Marco said.
Alia sigh and keep looking around.
"Your mansion is really big," Alia said with a soft voice.
"But I don't owe this one," Marco said with a weak voice.
Alia was kinda surprised to hear that.
"Huh? But why?" Alia asked.
"Sir Luis still don't give this place to me. But that's alright, I'm dying too soon." Marco said.
Alia gets close to Marco and kneels her right knee and looks at Marco.
"Marco, from now on. This place is yours. I'm sorry to give it to you this late, but I will make sure that your generation will have it." Alia said with a soft voice.
"I have one daughter, and her name is Yasmin. I want you to give this mansion to her after I die." Marco said with a weak voice.
"Does your daughter know that your generations ought to serve the Hemlock family?" Alia asked.
"No, Alia. She doesn't have any idea of the promise I made to your father." Marco said with a weak voice.
Alia just shows a frown expression, and Marco suddenly holds her hand.
"Alia, can you grant me a wish?" Marco asked.
"Sure, what is it?" Alia asked for the wish.
"Can you let me see my daughter before I die? Because even once I never become part of her life." Marco said with a smile.
"Yeah, give me her picture or something," Alia said with a soft voice.
Marco gets a picture in his pocket and shows it to Alia.
"That's my daughter now," Marco said with a smile.
"You have a very beautiful daughter," Alia said while holding the picture.
Alia keeps looking at the picture and smiles at Marco.
"I'll make sure that you'll see her. I promise." Alia said with a soft voice and smile to Marco.
Marco embrace Alia and Alia seems surprised about it.
"What is this?" Alia asked.
"It's a hug," Marco said.
"In my entire 497 years, no one hugged me like this before. Because my mother died when I was three years old." Alia said with a normal expression.
"So, I'm honored to be your first hugged," Marco said.
Alia just hugged him back.
"So, this is the feeling of how to be hugged," Alia said with a warm smile on her face.
