MHM - 1.5

Alexa was, as always, lazily flopped on her comfy bed as she awaits for an upcomming invitation letter to arrive.

Just when is that letter going to arrive? She thought.

(Host what letter are you talking about?) A floating screen asked whilst hovering above Alexa.

Alexa's eyes gleamed a dangerous light as she looked at the screen floating above her.

"Zero, haven't I already told you about how I feel when someone is eavesdropping on my thoughts?" Alexa asked as she smiled slightly but it didn't reach her eyes.

Zero felt a chill crawl down it's back as it glanced at Alexa and immediately blocked itself.

(I have blocked myself.) Zero said.

"Good."

A moment of silence fell for a while before Zero decided to ask once again. (What letter were you talking about host?)

"It's an invitation letter for the Madam of the Donmer Familys birthday."

(You mean....)

"Yep. Zed and Sebastians parents."

A knock came from the door and Alexa happily jumped off her queen sized bed and bolted her way towards the door as she hastily opened it....

"Young Miss there's a letter for you from the Donmer Househo--"

Alexa didn't let the poor maid finish as she quickly grabbed the letter and slammed the door close.

Alexa leaned her back against the door as she checked the invitation that was lavishly bundled in a golden colored envelope and she smiled expectantly.

Thank God. I was starting to feel bored.

_______

You are cordially invited to Mrs. Hera Donmers Birthday Celebration. To be celebrated at the Donmer Kingly Hotel on August 18, 2XXX at 6:00 PM.

We are highly anticipating your presence.

_________

Alexa felt an upcoming excitement .

(Host what are you planning.) Zero asked as it can't help but grow worried because its host was currently grinning at herself like some lunatic villain.

Alexa smirked when she heard Zero's question.

"Secret."

(....Host is being mean.(╥_╥) Why did I get the mean one....)

Zero: walks to the edge of the room and draws circles on the ground feeling wronged.

Alexa dialed her father's phone.

It's about time I start doing the missions properly.

If Zero could hear what Alexa had said it would've spurted out blood and say: So you weren't doing it properly before?!

Alexandra's original soul was spoiled so Alexa simply went with the spoiled rich girl and be a daddy's girl character to fulfill her 2nd mission. It isn't considered OOC since Alexa didn't immediately change. She did it slowly and carefully to make sure that she won't raise any suspicions.

The other line was ringing and after a few rings it was picked up.

"How may I help you young miss?" Eric's voice sounded from the other line.

"What took you so long?" Alexa complained in a whining tone even if it only took a few rings before it was picked up.

Eric helplessly sighed on the other side, "My apologies young miss." He said in a tone as if he was comforting a child.

His tone made Alexa's left eye twitch.

"Is dad there?"

Alexa heard the other line drop the phone sounding shocked at the fact that she just called Clark 'dad'

A few shuffles sounded before Eric spoke again.

"Y-Yes young miss..."

"I wanna talk to him." She simply said. The other line went silent and soon Alexa heard her father's manly voice from the other side.

"Dad?" she called out.

"What is it?" He asked. If other people would've heard his tone they would have thought that the man was an unfeeling father but only Alexandra noticed the slight quiver in her fathers voice, clearly he was shocked by her sudden call.

This father of mine had an adorable side to him after all.

"I received a letter for Mrs. Hera Donmers b-day party." Alexa informed him.

"I see... if you don't want to go then don't. No one would speak ill of you. They wouldn't dare. Cuz you're my daughter."

His last line made Alexa feel warm.

Even though he may seem like an ice block it seems like he cares in his own way-- even if it's not noticeable.

Alexa let out a smile at what he said. "I know."

The other line was once again enveloped in silence.

"Dad?" she called out again. The other side merely answered in a 'Hmm'

"I don't have anything to wear tommorrow."

Zero glanced at Alexandra's walk in closet and rolled its eyes.( Is this what she meant by nothing to wear?)

"Is that so? Would you like me to have you made a new customized one?"

"Yes please."

"What color?"

"I don't know. You pick for me."

".... okay."

And silence...

"If you have more concerns tell them to Eric." Clark said and passed the phone to his assisstant with a slightly trembling hand. Eric received the phone and spoke into it.

"What more do you need young Miss?" Eric gently asked.

"You know Eric.....I've been meaning to tell you this but calling me young miss all the time seems pretty tiring so why don't you just call me Alexa." She suddenly proposed.

The other line had fallen silent as it was taken aback by what she'd said.

"No, i wouldnt da--" Eric immediately responded but Alexa cut him off before he could finish.

"Dad~ Eric won't listen to my request." Alexa loudly whined hoping that her father could hear her through the phone.

Clark glanced at the phone before turning his gaze to Eric.

"Just do as she wishes."

Eric was troubled and he seemed to hesitate. Clark simply gave him a pressing look to pressure him more and he shifted uncomfortably before sighing indefeat. And he responded to the lady on the phone.

"If that is what you wish, then I shall call you that."

"So in what way will you call me?" Alexa teasingly asked.

"Young miss are you in need of anything more? If not then please go continue what you're doing before."

"Nope, " i said while popping the p. " I won't end the call unless I hear you call my name."

Eric hesitated for a bit before finally ending his contemplation.

"Is there anything else? Alexa."

Alexa grinned in victory for she felt like she had accomplished something. And she was right, she did accomplish something.

Zeros robotic voice rang through her mind.

(Missions:

Protect the Family Business - 0%

Get closer to Father- 21%)

Hearing this piece of news made Alexa smile widely.

"Nope. That would be all. Oh before I forget! The same thing goes for you to Dad. Calling me Alexandra all the time is a waste of saliva so just Alexa will do."

Alexa heard no response from the other side.

"Dad do you understand?"

"....."

Still silence.

"Dad!"

"Yes..... I understand, Alexa."

"Good! Okay that would be all! See you Dad, Eric!

"See you too young mis--- I mean Alexa."

"Bye!" And she finally ended the call.

After the call was ended she immediately ordered Zero to check on Clark and Eric's side.

(Do I have to?) the screen whined.

"It seems like you've grown lazy."

(Well lazing around is something I learnt from you.)

"What did you say?" Alexa asked with a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

(I'll go now.) And Zero escaped and did as Alexa requested.

Eric and Clark both stared at the phone looking dumbfounded, the  call has ended but these two grown men was still looking at the phone as if it grew two heads.

"Di- did Young miss just call you..." Eric trailed off sounding unsure.

He had been working under Clark for years and he was aware as to how distant the pair of father-daughter had been when they lost Jenna, Clarks wife.

Clark made some distance and focused his everything in work that he had forgotten to guide his only daughter causing her to drift- further away. Now that the young miss has almost reached the age of 26 Clark had no way of decreasing their drift since he himself wasn't knowleadgable in this department.

Yet today in God's grace the young miss was the first one to reach out!

Eric stared at Clark's shocked face and he can't help but let out a softened smile.

Soon tears were brimming on the sides of Clarks eyes and he was trying very hard to control it.

Eric couldn't help but reach out and envelop him in a tight yet unexpectedly warm embrace and soon he felt his suit dampen with Clark's tears.

------

Zeros mouth was hanging open when it finished narrating what it saw after Alexa ended her call.

"So you're saying they embraced each other? And quite tightly at that?!" Alexandra asked for confirmation as she glanced at Zero with a knowing gaze.

The floating screen nodded slowly for it is still feeling a tad bit weirded out when it was seeing two grown men hugging and embracing each other intimately.

A shocking thought passed through Alexa's mind as she smiled slyly.

Is that what's going on? Hmm.... I would need confirmation. But if so, so what? As far as I know I have nothing against them so I'll let them be.
