A sort of flash her mind from the  past. Alysia used to come home from vacation with a friend. She saw that they had guests at the Mansion because they had prepared and had a celebration.

When she saw their maid whose name was Sunya, she immediately asked her who her Dad's guest was.

"Señorita, is that you? It's a good idea to go home to meet your stepmother and siblings," Manang Sunya's said.

"What? Second Mother? When else? Besides, who are these sisters you say? Are you kidding? " She said.

"No. Señorita! Your Dad remarried, didn't he tell you? " Manang Sunya answer.

When Alysia found out from Sunya. It was as if, cold water had been poured on her. She immediately sought her Father. She wanted to know the truth of it.

But when she saw them happily chatting with his so-called new wife. She felt jealous and for a moment she looked badly at them. She saw the shock on their faces when, she came and especially her Dad.

"Alysia?" Daddy calls her name.

"Dad. Is it true that I found out that you've replaced mommy now, why? " She asks an out loud voice.

Alysia looked at it sharply with the feeling that they were an opportunist for they had won the Lotto that her father had married. Because she believes money is just chasing her father.

"I explained..." Domenick said calmly.

He tried to calm him down and hold her hand. But Alysia walked away from her Father.

"Now you explain! Is it true that you replaced Mommy and why didn't you tell me you were married and you even brought them? Don't you know I'm the one hurt? " She sobs.

"I'm sorry, Alysia... I can't wait to tell you, I'm remarried Daughter, your mommy has been dead for five years... it's time for me to love again. I hope you understand, Alysia. I still want us to be together as a family,"

"NO!? I can't accept them, sorry Dad! I don't want them for you! because they are only chasing you for the money, one day their true nature will also come out,"  Alysia angrily taught them to make her father conscious. But, what she received was a strong slap from her father. It was so painful that he chose them more than her daughter, out of resentment. She left the Mansion and ran away and never go home.

TWO YEARS LATER...

After the lawyer informed of her Father's condition. Alysia did not hesitate to wrap. The time she endured and did not show two years away from her father and now she needed it. It was also time to go home and face her father's second family.

Alysia was grateful that her friend had not neglected in her time of need. Even though they are far away from each other, they still talk in Group chat. The call continues. Unfortunately, they had to separate after graduating from college.

Alysia was in front of the Mansion. Why did she leave it with his new family?

For two years she stood firm. She endured not being able to see and talk to him. She couldn't stop crying, As she approached the Gate her steps are getting heavier.

Alysia chest was very heavy. She wanted to run and hug her Father. Apologies him. But she did not want to move her legs, holding her chest so heavy, she in turn, open the big gate. Manang Sunya the butler of the Mansion was released.

Sunya was surprised to see her. But for a moment, Sunya was Smiling approached, Alysia.

"Señorita.. you are here, why don't you go inside? It's cold outside here!" Manang Sunya said and worried. It was fun when Alysia saw her after two years she was gone.

"The Daddy..., Manang Sunya, where is he?" Alysa shook her voice.

"Señorita, he is in a room, after taking the medicine, he enters his room!" Sunya answer.

"Okay. I'm going with Daddy. You'll take care of my belongings," Alysia walked first. After wiping the tears from her cheeks.

Alysia slowly walked closer to the room, where her Daddy was. Over two years much has changed. The big portrait of her mother is no longer in her former place.

Because someone else was there, her stepmother. That it looks like a queen in the whole Mansion. She made it even bigger than her mother's picture. Its rugged aura can be seen on her face.

Alysia entered her Daddy's room when she reached the second floor of the Mansion. The whole Mansion is quiet. She did not see any shadow of the mother and daughters.

The room was dark and she wondered quietly. She presses the switch at the nearby door. When she turned it on.

She immediately looked for her Father. Alysia toured her eyes around the room. She saw someone lying on the side of his bed. She immediately approached it when she recognized it.

Alysia father was unconscious in his room. "Why? Where is Aunt Sheilla? Why did she leave my father alone in the room?" She wondered, but she couldn't stop herself from crying. When she saw her father. Her Father's body was very thin.

It moaned calling Alysia's name. Its eyes are closed. Alysia sat down and placed her father's head on her thighs. It has something to say, but not much to understand.

"Daddy..." She called with a shudder.

He moaned again, trying to open his eyes. It is very difficult to speak.

"Daddy... I'm here, your daughter is Alysia. What painful you.. You want me to take you to the hospital? Aunt Sheilla where is she? Why are you left alone here! " She immediately attended it. She asked her father a tearful question. It is very weak.

"Daughter..., thank you for coming home..., I'm happy to see you..., I won't be long..., take care of yourself huh? " Her father smiled at her. He tried to ease his heart.

"No! , Daddy..., you are not going to die! I will take you to the hospital! "

Alysia cried knowingly. She tries to make her Father stand up.

But he refuses her hands are prevented from forcing Domenick, to stand up. Domenick is the name of her father.

"Don't Alysia, I no longer.. So, I felt..., I love you so much sorry," He said the slow voice. Domenick's palm, tried to reach Alysia's face to caress it. She approached him as she bowed to her father So, that she could feel the caress of her departed Father.

"I love you so much, Daddy.. sorry if, I leave. But here I'm... I will take care of you!" She is sobbing.

Alysia last glanced at her father with a frugal smile. Before he passed away, he was still holding her hand.

"Daddy!! " She Cried out loud.

Alysia slumped on the floor. She looked at her lifeless Father. Only her moan was heard in every corner of the room. She stood on both knees and rested her head while crying.

"Daddy... I'm sorry... I became selfish... If, I hadn't walked away from you... I wish... I hadn't been with you for so long.." She said, whispered repeatedly to herself while staring her father. But she crawled closer to it and hugged her father again. Alysia head rested on her Father's chest, as she hugged it sobbing.

Alysia was left alone in the cemetery after her father was buried. She wanted to be alone, even at the last moment.

When Alysia glanced off him. Immediately their eyes met. The expression on its face was serious. She first looked down when she  could not bear to stare at him...
