“Wow! You're really cool, Sha!”
I gasped in surprise when Siena suddenly put her arm around my shoulder as she finished her basketball game. Of course she won, as would be expected of my school's basketball queen."Cool? What do you mean?"
“Ugh, are you trying to brag or really don't know? Of course I mean the accessories that Alliando uses! I didn't know you were so good at making accessories! Hey, how about you make some official accessories for the girls basketball team too?”
She narrowed her eyes before finally poking my shoulder while raising and lowering his eyebrows."Oh, that..."
Huh? I instantly widened my eyes in shock when I realized what Siena's words meant. Wait! I did know that I was the one who made the accessories. But the fact who made the accessories is only known to me and Alliando. so how did Siena find out?"How do you know if I made it?"
“Of course from A
"You really believe that our parents had an affair?"“Your father is a traitor All! And that woman is his evil partner you must hate!”"You can't trust anyone but mom! Remember that All! Remember that!"Beep..beep..beep..Alliando opened his heavy eyes. He looked at the clock on the wall, it was now 7 in the morning. Ah, it's time for him to go to school, and to be honest, now he hates it. After listening to the constant sound of the alarm, he finally decided to get up from his sleep. Walked out of the room and stared at his empty kitchen.Usually, at this hour, Shasha would be walking around in his apartment, preparing the things he needed. Don't forget her home cooking which according to Alliando fits his tongue very well."Stop thinking about her, All"He shook his head while smacking his cheek, trying to re-establish his faltering resolve.As he had expected, his heart would n
Really childish..I sighed, stroking my shoulder as a chill started to run through my body. Come to think of it I've been in the storeroom for quite a while. And until now, no one has been able to save me. Maybe it was because of the bonfire party that had already started, so all the students were gathering in the field right now. So no matter how many times I screamed, it was in vain. Even Andreas who was aware of the fact that I went to the storeroom didn't show up to save me either. Makes me wonder if this storeroom likes me or what, until I'm always locked in it?"I'm really bored.."I mumbled as I leaned my head on my knees, gazing into the dark storeroom. There is only a small lamp with minimal lighting in this storeroom. In my previous life, this incident had never happened. Because I really didn't attend the closing of the festival and the bonfire. I was too ashamed and envious of Senine's success.Actually, ever since I wo
That evening went on quietly as usual. Until finally a woman came and knocked on my door. She introduced herself as an old friend of my mother. At first my mother welcomed her with open arms. Smile broadly like someone who greets an old friend.I didn't really want to interfere with their conversation, so I gave them some alone time. Only, moments later, I heard my mother screaming, followed by the sound of her heart-rending sobs."What are you saying? So all this time you knew it all! So why are you just silent Ratna? Why?!"Mother screamed with a face filled with tears. It was the first time I saw my mother cry this sadly. Before, I'd always seen mom holding back her tears, swallowing her sadness deeply for whatever happened. Including when she have to accept the threats and cynicism of grandfather's attitude.It was the first time I saw my mother standing, shaking violently, while a woman who introduced herself as Ratna Edwa
Elena.."Thank you aunty!"I smiled as I lifted the empty basket which contained various fresh flowers before. Flowers that I took from a flower shop own by Aunt Anastasia who I consider like my own mother. Since she and her husband had no children, they decided to treat me as their child.Yup, I'm a girl who grew up in an orphanage. Both my parents died in an accident that took their lives. I was the only survivor, and according to the story of the head of the orphanage, my parents had no family. Whether it's because I was abandoned when I was too young, I don't feel sad at all. It's just that sometimes I feel jealous every time I see another child with their parents. I often imagine what if I was in their shoes. Will I have the same smile? Am I going to whine for something like they do? However, my wishful thinking disappeared after I grew up. After all, now I have a nice life. Being surrounded by good people is a gre
Elena..I still remember how his hands started to forcefully touch my body. How he smirked with an evil smile while saying"Just obey my will, then you will get out of your poverty!"It was the first time I realized that Jackson was more than just a jerk!He's a devil!The devil who looked at me with a condescending gaze. As if I was an object that could be treated arbitrarily. He even promised to pay me every time I let him 'touch' me. Saying that I am an orphan will not lack love if I accept his feelings.“Relax, Elena! You will definitely enjoy it soon!”On that cold night, I thought my world would collapse soon. I was too weak to fight because at that time I did feel something strange with my body. That night my body continued to feel weak and powerless. That's why I decided to go home earlier than the others.When I saw Jackson's eyes harassing me with his gaze, I thought the world was ignor
Elena..I don't know when it all went wrong. My relationship with Richard was suddenly misunderstood by his wife. She accused us of having an affair behind her back. Of course I tried to explain that it was all a misunderstanding. Even Richard and I decided to keep our distance.Moreover, Richard said that he loved his wife very much and did not want to lose her. I understood Richard's feelings well because I had also loved someone as deeply as him. However, his wife's misunderstanding just got bigger. She even came to me several times begging to leave her husband, as if I still kept in touch with Richard behind her back. She even promised to turn a blind eye to Richard's past closeness.Then, I, who didn't really understand what was going on, suddenly received an invitation from Freya, Richard's wife, to visit their house. She says, she wants to apologize for all the misunderstandings that happened between us. She sa
He really sleeps soundly..I leaned my chin on my palm, looking at Alliando's face who was still fast asleep, not at all bothered by my presence. Only then can I say that his face is truly extraordinary. Perfectly arched eyebrows without even need to trim, long curly eyelashes, high nose line with a firm jawline. Ah, absolutely perfect! If now his handsomeness still leaves a childish glow, then in a few years his handsomeness will be wrapped with an aura of maturity.In my previous life, I had seen the adult version of Alliando several times. It's just that because at that time my eyes were filled with hatred, I couldn't see his true beauty at all. Instead of being handsome, in my eyes his face is even more terrifying than zombies or goblins in horror films. Just seeing his face for one second alone succes gave me goosebumps with fear!“Urggh, I really hate bugs!”“Get out of my way, you damn spider!”U
"You?"Lily was just as surprised as I was. She opened her eyes wide while pointing at me with her index finger"What are you doing here?"She asked in a surprised and cynical voice.My surprise disappeared as soon as I heard the question. Lazily, I rolled my eyes in annoyance while answering"Of course saving you?"I purposely used a questioning tone in my voice, indicating how her question just now was something that was so obvious that I didn't need to answer.After being in a brighter place, then I can see how Lily's condition really is. The make up on her face looks messy. I could even see the slap marks on her cheeks. Just like her face, her clothes are no less messy, there are many tear marks, especially in the thigh area. The marks of the forced rip that I'm sure was done by the guy in the alley. Even though she was still looking at me with an annoyed look, for some reason I, who was originally annoyed, now t
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
