"Good morning, Andreas!"
I greeted Andreas while patting his shoulder. As soon as he realized that I was the one greeting him, he immediately smiled and answered my greeting,
"Morning too Sha. How was your morning today?”“Hmm, very good!”
I answered, then walked side by side with Andreas towards class. Even though my morning wasn't as good as I said it was. This morning I was greeted by the arrival of someone I didn't really want. I unconsciously sighed. Huhu, if this continues, maybe my weight will drop drastically because of stress. There are too many things on my mind, and all the problems still vague and unsolvedThis morning, when I left the house to go to school, a car was waiting for me right at the crossroads to my house. At first I ignored the car, but someone got out of the car and introduced himself as Julius, my grandfather's personal assistant.
“Master hopes that the lady can join h"Who are we?!!"“Red Devils!!”"Who are we?!!"“Red Devils! Red Devils!!!”“Hey, lady manager, come join us!”I was about to go to dry the towels that I just washed and was immediately intercepted by Leon. He took the basket from my hand and placed it on the floor. Then pulled my hand to join the other baseball club members. Uhh, anyone who see us right now would probably think I was their manager for long time. In fact, I've only been with them for 10 days! Although sometimes I still feel awkward when I'm with them, somehow these people are not bothered by my cold or indifferent attitude. In fact, they thought of my cold and indifferent attitude as something cute and cool. Uurgh, I really don't understand their way of thinking!"Come on Shasha let's shout together!"I immediately smiled awkwardly when all the eyes of the baseball club members turned to me. They all looked at me with s
"So, what are you two doing here?"Siena narrowed her eyes sarcastically at Alliando and Andreas who were standing behind me. It was obvious she didn't like the two of them being here. Indeed, according to the original plan, I should have just gone with Siena to the sewing supplies shop. But in the end, these two men behind me suddenly joined me. I sighed while remembering the reason they were able to join us a while ago.."Oh, sorry!"I withdrew my hand when I realized what I had just done. Awkwardly I immediately fanned my face which suddenly feel hot. Meanwhile Alliando now turned his face to the side. And I saw his ears were a little red."Ahem! Thank goodness you want to cooperate with me! Take it easy! I really mean it when I say that I will show you proof that our parents are innocent!”I said quickly, trying to clear the awkwardness between us.Alliando just nodded his head without saying a word, still t
"Aunt Ratna?"I looked at Aunt Ratna's eyes, which looked wide in shock. She quickly brushed my hand away, then put on a straight face. It was as if the shock I saw on his face earlier was just an illusion."Who are you? Sorry, you seem to have the wrong person. I'm not Ratna!"She said, tossing her long hair before continuing in a stride that was more like someone running. No! I'm sure that she is Aunt Ratna. Even with just a glance, I could tell right away.Among the teenage photos I saw in Aunt Donna's purse, Aunt Ratna's face was the most memorable. Especially with her two gray eyeballs and the scar on her cheek. I immediately ran after Aunt Ratna. Trying to get her to stop walking and talk to me."Not! I'm sure you are Aunt Ratna! Sorry if I'm being so presumptuous aunty, but I beg you! Let me talk to auntie even if only for a moment!”I tried to hold Aunt Ratna's hand again, but she swiftly pushed my body until I fell. It
Failed again!I sighed heavily when I saw Aunt Ratna's house which was tightly closed. Even though I had been deliberately waiting since morning in front of her house like a stalker. As if she already knew that I was coming and was stalking her.In fact, Aunt Ratna is one of the most important sources of information to get directions about my problem. How can I be sure? The reason was simple, because she was clearly avoiding me! Didn't someone say that only the guilty don't dare to explain things?I cupped my face in my palms, tiptoed in surprise when I felt my cellphone ringing, indicating an incoming call."Hello, auntie?""Oh, sure! OK!"After talking for a while with Aunt Donna. I finally decided to leave Aunt Ratna's house. Of course with a heavy sigh and hope that I can meet her soon.The place where I met Aunt Donna was the same cafe where we first met. It is not difficult to find Aunt Donna among the cr
"Have you thought about what Uncle said carefully?"Alliando looked at a man wearing glasses sitting across from him. He looked calm and relaxed with a strong aura radiating around his body. The man was Jackson Evans, his father's cousin and best friend. Since his father died, Jackson is the one who manages all of his father's assets, including the large company that has been managed by their family for generations.Because his father is the only child, Alliando should be the one who gets the right to continue this company. But.. just thinking about it can make him wince full of hatred. Imagining he had to sit where his father always sat. Occupied by a traitor who made his mother's life full of suffering.“Our parents never cheated!”Shasha's confident words rang in his ears. In fact, he still thinks that what he has known so far is the truth. Although now he was trying to trust Shasha. He does not know
Find Jackson!I don't know how many times I've repeated that sentence in my brain. Starting from before bed until waking up. Who is Jackson really? Hearing Mama's story, I believed that Jackson was a bad person. Meanwhile, based on Aunt Donna's story, he is just a 'normal' person. The only thing abnormal about him was that he was too obsessed with my mother.Based on that, I made the assumption that Jackson was most likely the mastermind behind all the unfortunate things that happened to my mother. Maybe because of his love for my mother and what happened in the past, he became crazy and obsessed with destroying my mother. Like a saying that says 'if I can't have you, then no one else can either!'. And for Uncle Richard, maybe he has a grudge with Uncle Richard. Or he just have guessed that Uncle Richard and mother would be close again after father's death.As for Aunt Ratna, I suspect that all this time she has known about U
“Weren't you the one who spread the rumors? Stop pretend to be so innocent!!"One of the female students whose name I don't even know stepped forward, shoving my shoulder repeatedly with a disdainful smile. I suddenly realized something, if they thought I was the one spreading the gossip, was the first person they talked about besides Alliando... Siena?“You, is the person you called a same-sex lover Siena?”I asked, gritting my teeth, holding back my anger.I really can't stop thinking about Senine!Can't she just bully me without involving other people? Again, the face of the history teacher in my past life flashed in my eyes, making me wince sadly."Wow, you're really funny aren't you? Stop pretending you don't know! You two-faced woman!”I caught the student's hand that was reaching out to grab my hair."You.. you.."She winced in pain as I tightened my grip on her wrist. Aft
Fernando Dawson..One of the entrepreneurs who is now plunged into the world of politics. He is known as a man who is firm and very authoritative. In the past, one of the things that made me jealous of Joana was because she had a father who was so perfect. I often wonder what it would be like if I had an influential father like him, maybe my life would be a lot better. Maybe I can get whatever I want in this world.Ah, back then I was really a child with low self-confidence. With many ugly traits that I can't be proud of. I get jealous easily, easily curse the world. I was too absorbed in thinking that I was the most suffering person in the world. But now that I think about it, I'm not really jealous of them. After I was reborn, I realized that my weakness was my fear of myself and my attitude of always feeling mistreated.I looked at Joana's and Senine's faces in turn. When I learned of the fact that Senine is her fathe
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
