บท 256: When Dad and Daughter Meet

"Okay, okay, I'm coming right now," Alicia said, her eyes shining with joy as she replied quickly.

After hanging up the phone, she was filled with joy, yet also a sense of sorrow. To her, the role of a father had always been missing. Because of this absence, she yearned for it even more, but the more she yearned, the less she seemed to get. Over time, this longing turned into an obsession. There was always a void in her heart, which would occasionally feel like a draft. Whenever she saw her friends being pampered by their fathers, she would feel extremely envious.

She never believed she would meet her real dad in her life. She wanted to tell everyone: from now on, she also has a dad. Alicia, who's usually calm, was now walking around the room, her bright eyes shining like they were full of tiny stars, giving off a light of joy.
