My Beloved Hybrid
Father?
Another peaceful morning, I jumped out of the bed and went to college.
I was walking to my class and a pair of arms suddenly wrapped around my waist.
Alice
God, Jay! You scared me!
Jay
There's no need to be scared. It's just me.
Alice
Ugh, never mind. I forgot that you're an idiot.
Both me and Jay turned towards the familiar voice.
Sarah
Wow, you're early today. And Jay, are you trying to steal her from me?
Jay
I rather not. I don't want to get myself beaten by you.
Alice
Jay, are you actually scared of Sarah?
Jay
I'm not, okay! I just don't beat women.
Sarah
Let's go, or we'll be late.
Alice
Hehe, alright. Bye Jay.
We bid our goodbye and I went to the class with Sarah
Sarah
So, tell me. What's going on between you and Jay?
Alice
W-what are you talking about? Jay is my best friend.
Sarah
Eh? I thought you guys are dating.
Alice
W-we're not. After all, I'm sure that I'm not his type.
Sarah
But he seems to like you.
Alice
Impossible. We're just friends
Sarah
Alright. Do you have any plans after class?
Sarah
We could go out for some fun.
Alice
I'm going to visit my mother.
Alice
It's been a long time since I last visited her
After classes are over, I went to the cemetery to visit mother.
Alice
Mother, are you doing well?
Alice
It's been a long time. I miss you so much.
I turned around and saw a guy in front of me.
Edmund
Don't be afraid, Alice. It might sounds crazy but.. My name's Edmund. And I'm your father.
Alice
Impossible! My father died years ago!
Edmund
Here, maybe this could make you believe me.
The man took out something from his pocket and give it to me.
Alice
That's mother! And me! Is that.. you?
1
Edmund
Yes. Your mother is a great woman.
Edmund
In fact, she's the only woman that I have ever loved.
Alice
Where have you been all this time!?
Alice
You left us alone and now you come back for what!?
Tears running down from my eyes and I didn't even bother to wipe them away.
Edmund
Alice.. I know you're mad at me
Edmund
But everything I did was for you
Alice
For me!? What about mother? Have ever thought about her?
Edmund
I'm sorry. I didn't plan to left but it was your mother wish..
Edmund
She wanted you to have a normal life.. as a human.
Alice
As a human? I am a human! What kind of excuse is that!?
Edmund
Well, you see.. You're a half human and half vampire.
Alice
Stop making stupid excuses! Vampire doesn't exist!
Edmund
It's okay if you don't believe me but take this.
Edmund
Your mother gave me this before she died and she wanted you to have it.
Edmund
If you change your mind, you can go to the address.
Edmund
You're always welcome, Alice.
Edmund
And I hope you'll change your mind and come home.. as my daughter.
I open the letter and read it out loud.
Alice
'Dear Alice, I'm sorry that I didn't tell you anything. Your father is a vampire. Which means that you're a hybrid. He didn't abandoned you and please don't blame him. It was my wish for you to have a normal life. Please forgive me, and go home back to your father. Love, Mother. '
Alice
He really is my father?
Alice
And he's a vampire!?
After a few hours of thinking, I made up my mind to move back to father's house.
I packed up my things and went to the address by a taxi.
Alice
Is this really my father's house?
Sophie
It's so nice to finally meet you!
Alice
Um, I'm sorry but who are you?
Sophie
I'm your personal maid. My name is Sophie.
Alice
Oh, hi Sophie. And you can just call me Alice.
Sophie
But I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to call you by your name..
Alice
It's okay. You can just call me Alice.
Sophie
If you insist. Now, let me show you to your room, Alice.
Alice
What about my luggage?
Sophie
Don't worry, I'll have someone to bring it up.
Alice
Alright, thank you Sophie.

Sophie
Here we are! This is your room. The master prepared this room for you by himself.
Sophie
He didn't let anyone help him! He said that he want to make it up to you.
Alice
Did Edmund really do all this?
Sophie
*nod* now, come on! I'm sure that you haven't met the young masters!
Sophie
Oh, well. Young Masters are Master's adopted sons. He was so lonely all these years so he adopted them.
Zachary
I'm not interrupting your conversation am I?
Zachary
So.. You must be Alice. It's nice to have a new face around.
Zachary
I'm Zachary by the way. You can call me Zach.
Alice
It's nice to meet you, Zach.
Zachary
You ladies have a chat first. And remember to come down for supper.
Alice
Is he one of Edmund's adopted son?
Sophie
Yes, young master Zachary is quite cold but he actually have a kind heart.
Alice
What about the others?
Sophie
Young master Leo is the youngest and he's quite a cheerful one. He would always play with the animals and sometimes he would even asked the servants to play with him.
Alice
Hehe, he sounds like a a cute little boy.
Sophie
He surely is, and oh my god-! Look at the time! We should go to the dining room. Come Alice, I'll show you the way.
Edmund
Alice! I'm so glad you're here.
Alice
Don't get me wrong, I'm here just because mother wants me to.
Edmund
Of course, I'm just happy that you're here now.
Edmund
Let me introduce you to everyone.
Edmund
Everyone, this is Alice. My daughter. Alice this is Zachary..
Zachary
We've met just now
Edmund
You know each other?
Alice
Long story short, yeah we know each other. We went to the same college and we've been best friends for years.
Alice
You know about my father and yet you didn't tell me!?
Alice
We promised not to keep any secret between each other. I can't believe you broke that promise.
Without thinking, I run back towards my room.
Edmund
Jay, stay right where you are.
Edmund
Sophie, can you bring supper to her room?
Zachary
Tsk, Tsk.. Someone's in trouble.
I sit on the bed hugging my knees and trying to process about everything that just happened.
Alice
My father is a vampire and my best friend is his adopted son!?
Alice
Ugh, can this day get any worse.
Sophie
Alice, can I come in?
Sophie
I brought you some food.
