I guess I was wrong in thinking that my days had been much calmer after Alliando threatened Senine. Ah, what did I expect from Senine? Stop bothering me? It's absolutely impossible.
After Senine showing her banner, Madam Sharon then asked me to show her the work I had done. Taking a deep breath, I walked to the locker where I kept the banner designs and templates I had prepared.
I could hear the whispers of the entire festival committee as madam Sharon looked at my handiwork and said
"Oh Lord! Your design is really similar to Senine's, Sha.."She then looked at me with a very disappointed look"As someone who really loves art, you should understand the best Sha how plagiarizing other people's work is a no-no"I didn't say anything, just stared at Madam Sharon before finally looking at Senine who was wiping the corners of her eyes that were starting to get wet. Ah, I really don't understand Senine's wa
I peeked from behind the wall, quietly observing Alliando who was still cleaning the student bathroom. He looked very calm, there was no expression of irritation on his face at all.I thought, at least Alliando would be annoyed that he had to accept the punishment. But, to my surprise, he was actually very relaxed about the punishment from madam Sharon.Would it be better if I just help him?I rubbed my chin. Right now my brain is at war to make a choice, whether I should help Alliando or not."Okay, let's just help him.."I finally decided to help Alliando after thinking for a long time. I then approached Alliando, grabbed the mop that was located near the bathroom door.My hunch said that if I had spoken to him about my desire to help him, he would have refused as curtly as he always does. So, without saying anything to Alliando, I started cleaning the bathroom.Alliando's movements had stopped
"Come in!"Alliando spoke again in an urgent tone. His face wrinkled impatiently, probably annoyed that I was still standing where I was like an idiot."Hey!"Alliando snapped his fingers in front of me, making me who was deep in thought slightly jolted in surprise."Come on, quickly!""But.. But.."Before I finished saying my sentence, Alliando immediately grabbed my hand and led me into that very large fabric shop."Welcome young man, can I help you?"A middle-aged woman with a very fashionable appearance approached me and Alliando. She smiled kindly as she looked at us enthusiastically.Alliando then let go of his hand in mine. He then approached the woman who introduced herself as Rowena. They walked a little away from me and started talking. He even took something out of his bag.As soon as Alliando
"Good morning, Sir"I greeted Alliando who was standing in front of the door with his face still very sleepy. He yawned widely before turned around. Then, he walked in and left me standing at the door. All right, let's assume he's invited me in.I entered the apartment, immediately took the apron and prepared a simple breakfast. Meanwhile Alliando chose to go back into his room. Of course I don't really care what he's doing in the room. I just focus on doing my job so that everything is finished soon.Especially now that I feel a little sleepy because last night I stayed up late to finish an example of a headband and wristband using the materials Alliando provided. Luckily, Mom still keeps the sewing equipment, which Mom says is a legacy from Grandma."Stop rubbing your red eyes, you really look like a zombie now!"Alliando's grunts made my hand which was rubbing my eyes to get rid of sl
I rubbed my eyes many times, still couldn't believe what I was seeing."Did I see wrong?"I mumbleBut, no matter how many times I rub my eyes, it still doesn't change anything in front of me. The headband really looks perfect on Alliando's head. Ah, I think Alliando is suitable to volunteer as a model. Even the sparkle of his sweat dripping and soaking the headband made it even more attractive. “Wow, this is the first time I've seen Alliando wearing a headband. And the headband looks really cool! Do you know the brand that produces the headband?” "Um, no. But I'm sure, the headband must be very expensive!” I tried hard to keep my lips from smiling when I heard the conversation of two female students standing right next to me. It felt like there were butterflies dancing around me when I heard them praising my headband. Not only them, I also heard some male stud
"Are you sure you can go home alone?"Andreas handed me my bag which he brought from class. Since my head was still a little sore earlier, the school nurse advised me not to go back to class and wait until school was over in the infirmary.I nodded my head and took my bag from Andreas' hand then put it on."Are you sure?"Andreas asked again, his face still very worried. And again, I only nodded my head.Actually Andreas offered to take me home. But I turned down the offer. The reason? Of course because I have to go to Alliando's apartment before I go home."Okay, then, let me accompany you to the school gate"Andreas said and this time, I decided to accept his offer. All the way to the gate, Andreas and I just kept quiet and didn't speak.After arriving in front of the gate then I bowed my body towards Andreas while saying"Thank you for helping me today. And sorry because you have to t
Huh?I made her life like living hell? Was she delirious when she said that?Though the memories of my previous life are still vivid in my brain. And not a single memory fragment in my head shows that I made Lily's life a living hell."Don't you have other activities besides daydreaming on the side of the road like this?"A familiar voice came from behind me, making me immediately turn my head with bad feeling. Yup, my guess was right, Alliando was already standing behind me with his annoying face as he always showed. He was still wearing the basketball uniform he used to wear, making me subconsciously stare at his head and hands. Suddenly a feeling of disappointment rose in my heart. He doesn't use my accessories anymore.Plakkk!!I slapped my cheek hard. How can I be disappointed because of something so trivial like that?. After all, what's so special about Alliando using my accessories?. Please, w
"So you prefer that woman over me?""Oh Lord! I became suspicious, perhaps that woman’s daughter is your flesh and blood!”“If you prefer her, I'd rather just die! Come on, All!! Follow me!""You won't betray mom, will you, All? You're different honey, you're different from your father.."“No All!! Don't leave mommy!! No!!!"Beep..Beep..Beep..Beep..Alliando opened his eyes wide with ragged breaths. Sweat soaked all over his body, even though the air conditioner in his room was still on normally."Huh, that dream again..."He muttered as he sat up, brushed his hair for a moment before burying his face between his knees. Even after all these years had passed, the events of that night were still vivid in his head. Haunted every night, as if to become a chain that restrains his freedom. If only that night Alliando didn't act
“Thank you for your hard work, guys. Now we just have to wait for the festival activities to finish and we'll get a pretty pleasant reward from the principal!!"Siena spoke in front of the festival committee meeting room with a face full of confidence. Applause and cheers rang out after Siena finished her speech. After being reborn, I can understand what is the reason behind Siena's popularity. Friendly and fun, two things I used to crave. I always wished I was born with a fun and sociable character. Ah, but my mother once told me that when I was in elementary school, I was a cheerful and fun child. Mama said, I became quiet and introverted after my father died.All the committee members started walking up to Siena and talking to her. Meanwhile, I just stood where I was, staring at the table next to me which was empty without Alliando's presence. It seemed he was working on something important until he missed the last meeting of the fe
December, when it rained heavily from the sky, I was forced to go to the funeral of the person I hated the most, the one who made my school life a living hell. I saw a lot of people crying at his funeral, as if they had lost a very good person. At that time I didn't understand why people liked him so much, because to me, he was nothing more than a demon in human form. Ah, I forgot a simple fact, which was that I was the only one he treated badly. Then, in that blue December, I finally learned a surprising secret, that man actually in love with me. He made me the heir to his wealth as well as various mysteries that he wrote in his diary. He didn't give much hint in the book, only about his life, his feelings, and why he committed all these crimes to me. In my desperation, I begged God to let me see him again to ask what he really meant. And God granted my request. And here I am, standing looking at him who was focused on finishing the baby bed he had made since a month ago I laughed a
Am I dead?As soon as I opened my eyes, I was already in a white room that I had never seen before. I've even tried walking to find out where I really am, but no matter how far I walk, I still don't find anything. As if this room is an endless room. Well, maybe I am indeed dead and am waiting for the angel of death to lead me to the afterlife. Being too tired to walk, I finally decided to sit on the floor which was also white. Trying to think about a lot of things that happened before I opened my eyes in this place. I remember that before losing consciousness, I was hit by uncle Sam's knife stab at some point. Suddenly a sense of sadness gripped my heart as I remembered Alliando expression I had seen before my eyes were completely closed. Ah, those somber looks and tears were probably one of the reasons why I suddenly felt indecisive about continuing to walk towards the realm of death."Hi, we meet again huh?"I gasped in shock when I saw the face of someone I ha
I opened my eyes in this dark room again, but of course without Uncle Sam or Roni. Looks like they're off somewhere to clear things up. My body immediately shivered when I remembered what Uncle Sam said before I completely lost my consciousness. Is it true that he killed Alex and uncle Shancez? Uurgh, I can't believe it! There's no way that Alex, who is so sharp and meticulous, can be defeated so easily! I'm sure uncle must be lying, he must be lying!I have to quickly escape from this place to confirm what really happened! I tried to remember how the condition of this room when the lights were turned on earlier. Trying to find something I can use to escape.Ah! I remember! Right in the corner to my right, I saw a pile of iron, maybe I could find an iron sharp enough to untie the knots in my hands and feet. I painstakingly dragged my body towards that place, as carefully as I could feel the pile of iron to find something I could use to untie my hands.Gotcha! I almost screamed when my
The night before..I stared at the building in front of me excitedly, imagining that the day of my victory had arrived. After today, all I have to do is make sure that Uncle Sam really rots in prison. After today, I can visit my mother's grave with my head held high, telling her that I took care of someone who harmed her. Besides that.. I can also freely meet Alliando again.With a faint smile I stepped inside, took the elevator up to the floor Fernando told me about.“Welcome, miss!”The friendly voice of a middle-aged man greeted me as soon as I entered. He walked up to me and started shaking my hand,“I am really happy to have met Elena's daughter. Ah, I'm sorry, but let me express my condolences for Elena's death. I'm sure She's smiling in heaven right now watching you."My brows furrowed as I listened to the middle-aged man say my mother's name as if he knew her very well. I tried to remember if his face was among the few people my mother had friends or acquaintances with. But un
I can't help but laugh when I read the big headline in the newspaper I'm reading'The collapse of Sam Lee dynasty'As for the content of the news, it's almost the same as what I've heard before. That is about Sam Lee who is currently on the verge of bankruptcy, even business observers feel pessimistic that he can rise and improve his image again."Taste the bitterness, uncle .."I muttered as I turned to the next page. This time a slight smile formed on my lips when I saw Alliando's face who was standing quietly. There was written an article with the title 'Sunrise CEO public debut, rookie monster in the business world'. Almost all of them are filled with praise about Alliando's ability to build his company. And of course, there's been a bit of discussion about his personal life.Actually, the discussion of Alliando's personal life in official newspapers like this is not at all interesting. It was the gossip magazine which I read yesterday that won. They explained in detail about the
You destroyed me, so there's nothing wrong with me destroying you back, right?Believe me! I really want to crush your life into crumbs, but it seems that God created my heart too meticulously, until he put too much 'compassionate' side instead of 'cruel side'. If only the second part was more than the first, maybe I wouldn't stop until uncle was actually lying in his tomb! Separating his body parts one by one to give the best torture.I put my bag before finally throwing myself onto the bed. Actually, I could feel that my cellphone was vibrating continuously, indicating that there were a lot of notifications going in there. But I decided to ignore everything. Right now I want to enjoy my rest time. After all, my heart was quite happy after seeing Uncle's shocked face when he found out that his company is now just an empty shell with no contents.Ever since uncle handed over the position of company leader to me, I have carefully managed my steps. Especially after I found out the fact
"Good morning Miss"I nodded my head towards Alex who was wearing black suit, same as me. As a sign that we are still in mourning after grandfather's death. Even though it has been 10 days since his passing. Tucking a strand of my hair behind my ear, I took out the document he handed me. The document contains an investigation about the death of grandfather as well as an investigation about the death of someone I hate the most, Aunt Donna.Actually, on the night of grandfather's death, there was one more big news that shocked the world, namely the death of Aunt Donna. She was found dead after previously slashing her wrist with a small knife whic she got from nowhere. So far, the police have concluded that her death was a suicide, considering that there was no damage to the cell where she was being held.That night I was too shocked because of Grandpa's departure, so I didn't really care about anything else. That day I was too busy to fix my broken heart because again, I was left alone
Rain..I don't know why it always rains whenever something sad happens to me. Be it in my previous life or my current life. I don't know the reason, but maybe it was raining to wash away my sadness, or just to add to the coldness of my already cold heart."Please accept my condolences, miss"I just nodded my head to anyone who came to say a mournful sentence. The energy I had was too little to simply reply to their words. Luckily Alex who was standing next to me wasn't in the usual 'silent' mode. Right now he is the one who saves me and replaces me to greet the mourners or just chat with them.My eyes looked at grandpa who was now lying in the coffin with a calm face. It felt like he was just sleeping and I could wake him up anytime. But, no matter how many times I scream or beg for him to open his eyes, he still ignores my request.Grandpa should be waiting for me..Grandpa should have waited for me to finish my mission a little longer so we could make up for the time wasted during m
Moments before..I feel more tired than the previous days. Facing different kinds of people in one day. Starting from the shareholders, the board of directors to Uncle Sam. And there is one more person who drains my energy, namely Hans. Earlier he had visited my company, and that was after I forced him to come. I wanted to make a plan with him so he could take back the part of Alliando's father's company that was taken by Uncle Sam. I thought he would at least agree with my idea, but who would have thought he would refuse. He said he didn't want Alliando to be involved in anything related to me or Uncle Sam anymore. “I'm quite happy with his memory loss. At least he doesn't have to remember the sad memories anymore-"He said to me."Besides, we are more than capable of building our company again. You see how big we are, right?"Even though he spoke with indifferent voice and expression, but I could see there was a look of care in his eyes. And seeing that, I finally gave up trying to
