Sea Who Plays

Sea was indeed very good at acting, just tears alone were enough to make Alice believe.

Even now Alice was overcome with guilt.

"Sea, I'm sorry, Sea...." Alice said with a guilty expression.

"You evil, Alice, why do you accuse me like that? I am not a murderer, nor am I a person who has a habit of hiding corpses!" said Sea.

"Sea... why are you talking like that? I'm not accusing you of being a murderer, or that you have quirks and like to hide corpses?" said Alice, and now she was filled with wonder and suspicion again.

Because it felt strange, Sea spoke off-topic. Her thoughts had soared too far, to even become something Alice hadn't thought of at all.

"Sea, this feels weird, you talking like that makes me even more suspicious," said Alice.

'Damn, why am I so stupid,' said Sea to herself.

"Ah, I mean... you're not accusing me directly, but somehow I feel if your mind gets to this point. And you must think I'm a weirdo too, right?" said the Sea, and now the tears were flowing again.

Again Alice was deceived. Sea managed to toy with Alice's mind with her words.

"No, Sea, I didn't think that far. You're overreacting," Alice said, "okay, I'm sorry, Sea, I didn't mean to offend you," Alice hugged Sea's still crying body.

But behind Alice's embrace, it turned out that the tears were just decorations, Sea smirked without Alice knowing.

'You idiot,' Sea cursed in her heart.

"You'll forgive me, won't you, Sea?" Alice whispered.

And Sea nodded "Okay, I'll forgive you, but I beg you, Alice...don't do that again. Because you know if it hurts me, being accused of something I never did by someone I trust, it hurts, " concluded Sea, she went back to pretending to be sad again.

And now it was Alice's turn to nod her head.

"Yes, Sea, I promise, that I won't accuse you of anything wrong," Alice answered.

'And besides, I was just asking, but why is Sea overreacting like this? Am I being too much?' said Alice quietly.

Her heart was very easily touched, moreover, Alice also didn't want her relationship with Sea to be damaged just because of a misunderstanding.

The only close friend and neighbor here are Sea, of course, she doesn't want to fight with Sea, moreover, Sea has also helped her a lot while in this city.

Because the problem was solved, and Alice also thought this was just a misunderstanding, Alice finally went home empty-handed.

Although she hoped to find some light on Archer's disappearance, so did Livy.

But Alice didn't want to offend Sea with her words.

And thinking about Sea's feelings, Alice didn't understand that behind Sea's sadness there was a lie.

***

Alice was about to open the door of her house, and just at that moment, a middle-aged woman came up to her.

"Miss Alice," the woman patted Alice's shoulder.

"Uh, Mrs. Rose?" Alice faced the woman. Rose Jones immediately hugged Alice's body.

"Miss Alice, help me... Miss, I can't take it anymore," said the woman with tears breaking in Alice's arms.

"What's the matter, Mrs? Let's talk inside my house," said Alice.

Rose nodded, and Alice led the woman to her house.

"Have a seat, Mrs," said Alice.

Rose sat up, wiping her face with a handkerchief.

"Wait a minute, I'll get you some water so you can calm down," said Alice.

She went into the kitchen for a while then came back with a glass of water in her hand.

"Here, Mrs, have a drink," said Alice, holding out a glass.

Rose drank it, and now her face calmed down a bit.

"What, you, have calmed down?" Alice asked, and Rose nodded her head.

"Then tell me slowly, Mrs," said Alice.

"Look, Miss Alice, for the past few days, I've been having nightmares about my daughter, Livy, she's always crying with her body full of wounds as if asking for my help," said Rose. The woman lowered her head, and it seemed that she had started crying again.

Alice immediately approached and rubbed Rose's shoulder.

"Mrs, wasn't it just a dream?" said Alice.

"But the dream feels real, Miss, I'm the closest person to Livy, and I'm sure Livy is hinting at me at this point," said Rose.

"But what should we do, Mrs, even the police haven't found it yet, Livy?"

"Nor do I know, Miss Alice, I came here because only Miss, would listen to me. In this world only I care about Livy, even her father doesn't want to hear about his missing daughter again. I am alone, Miss, and the only person who wants to hear me is Miss Alice," said Rose and started crying again. "Sorry, Miss, if my arrival bothers you," said Rose, holding her forehead and lowering her head.

"Patience, Mrs," Alice tried to comfort Rose by hugging and rubbing her shoulder again.

She couldn't bear to see a woman cry for her daughter, this made Alice remember her late mother.

Her heart was moved and wanted to help Rose find Livy, but unfortunately, Alice didn't know where to look for Livy?

Archer's problems haven't come to light either, let alone the only person she suspects is Sea. But unfortunately, the suspicion was lost because Sea's game was able to convince Alice.

"Well, Mrs, don't be sad anymore," said Alice.

"I miss Livy so much, Miss, what if she is in danger?"

"Believe me, Miss Rose, if Livy is all right," Alice said.

Drtt...

Her cell phone vibrated there was an incoming call, Alice immediately picked it up.

"Hello, Bella?"

[Hello, Alice, how about, Archer? Have you got any information about him?] Bella asked over the phone?

'Ah, what should I talk to Bella about, she'll be sad to hear that because until now my film crew and I haven't found anything, Archer?'

[Alice, why are you still silent? Is Archer okay?] Bella asked.

"Bella, I just arrived at Archer's work, and Archer wasn't there!" Alice replied firmly, though it was hard to tell her sister, she had to be honest.

[What! He is not here?! Where is she, Alice?!]
