ALICE

Belle woke up with the sound of her alarm clock. Turning it off, yawning--she stretched, her left hand grabbed the picture of her mom on the bed, and then place it on the side table.

As she opened her door, an amazing smell totally wake her up. Walking towards the kitchen, the two old people are sitting on their spots. She cheerfully greeted, "Good morning uncle Kevin, auntie Julie!" This caught the attention of the two who's having a very enthusiastic conversation- "Oh, good morning too, Belle" the woman said. As she pull the chair on the dining table, she notice an extra plate and just disregard it. "Maybe these two misses their daughter so much that they place an extra plate today. Well, it's fine as long as they're happy" she thought. Squinting her eyes, she grabbed the plate then took a toasted bread, an egg and bacon as she try to read the vibes of the two.

Taking a sip in her hot chocolate drink, a creak sound on the room upstairs bothered her. As she was about to stand up due to curiousity, she heard faint foot steps that keeps on getting louder and louder towards their location. "Morning!" a loud but sweet and charming voice echoed in the dining hall. Both her companions on the dining area, nodded and smile widely as a response. Belle took the last bite of her toast before turning around. The moment she looked back--a complexion so fair, a pair of deep blue eyes and a long wavy copper hair flashed in her eyes. Looking so dumbfounded, she gasped as she was shocked about the presence of the lady behind her--that girl is so beautiful that she can't even explain if what she's seeing is a human or an angel! She couldn't understand what she's feeling at that moment, but all she knows is "it will be a pain to be acquainted with this girl, not only because of her looks but also she looks so humble and nice. Perhaps she already have lots of friends" she murmured.

Pulling the chair across her, the girl sat. The old couple smiled earnestly as they look at the two beautiful ladies dining with them. The old man patted the girl's shoulder as he broke the silence by talking, "Why won't you introduce yourself to her, sweetheart" he suggested.

Pouting, she nodded "Hello! You must be Belle! I heard about you from dad. Anyways, I am Alice Wright, also in my twenties and taking up Modelling in the same school as yours" she introduced herself smiling widely. "Hi! Nice meeting you" Belle replied, took a glance then looked away. "Oh! Mom and Dad was right! I wouldn't regret it if I go home right away. Finally! There's someone I can talk to, also to go to school and go home together with, now! I'm super excited to get to know you better!" she blurted out.

Belle--who is enchanted by the overwhelming welcoming and warm-heartedness of the girl, she lost the words to response, so she gave her a smile and did nod. "Let's get along well okay? Sissy!" She is shocked for the endearment which partly made her so happy, she looked at Alice who is blinking, which sounded very sincere and enthusiastic about their encounter. Blushing, she looked away and responded in a very low voice "Yeah. I think that's very likeable. Thank you very much." which made Alice feel grateful and at ease.
