"Good evening honey, come sit down and eat your dinner"

Mama's smile greeted me as soon as I out of my bedroom. I looked at my smiling mother, even though I could tell her eyes were swollen from crying last night.

'Was my decision wrong?'

I bit my lip, remembering the conversation I had with my mom last night. Mama said what I saw was not true and she never cheated on father.

"Believe me honey, mom never cheated on father. The only person mom loves in this world is your dad and that won't change."

After saying that mom just cried. She then went into her room and locked herself. Even when I go to school, mom still hasn't come out of her room.

I didn't know that my question would hurt Mama so much. But I also don't want to walk around a sense of uncertainty. I want to have something I can hold onto. A reassurance in the midst of the miraculous things that have happened to me lately. A

    "W.. What are you doing?"I approached Alliando with a look of disbelief. My eyes only focus on the brochure that had been torn into several pieces in his hand. There were 10 brochures that I managed to do yesterday, in fact I purposely went home later than the others.And the brochures now.."What have you done?"I asked again, this time raising my head and looking at Alliando with a look that demanded an answer. I don't understand what he really wants. Even though I was worried that it was Senine that would destroy my work, but it turned out that I was wrong, Alliando was the one who did it."Ah? This.."He suddenly stood up, then bowed deeply with a very regretful face“I'm sorry, Shasha, I'm sorry! I accidentally destroyed the brochure we had worked so hard to make. Please forgive me!"Alliando kept bowing his body many times, making the members who were watching us start whispering to

    Who would have thought that after the day I caught Alliando threatening Senine, my life would be a little more peaceful. Hmm, not too peaceful, but at least they won't interfere with my work for the festival later. Andthe rest, they still act the same.What about Alliando? Yes that annoying boy is still the same. He still treats me very 'unpleasantly'. It's just, somehow I got a little used to his annoying attitude.Maybe because after that day I realized that Alliando was not as bad as I thought. Still, I just think he's not bad in this life. In my previous life I still thought of him as a 'demon' who dragged me into the hell of high school."Yeah, done!!"I shouted while clapping my hands when I saw the brochures piled high in front of me. After a long struggle, finally my and Alliando's work is done.And as usual, Alliando's curt response immediately sounded in my ears"Very noisy.."But of course I'll b

    Isn't it.. Isn't the one standing in front of me right now is Alliando?!But, how...I looked at Alliando with wide eyes. Even my mouth fell open from the shock.Just like me, Alliando also looked very surprised. His gray eyes that always fascinated many people, now trembled, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing."Y.. You.."I couldn't finish what I said, then frantically reached into my bag to see the details of the address the domestic helper association had given me.'Mr Fredly Muller'Obviously the name listed there is not Alliando's name!! Urrgh, did I get the wrong address?I looked at the paper again, before taking a step back to take a closer look at the apartment number sign. Huhu, and unfortunately the number listed on the board is the same as the one on the paper.After repeatedly checking the paper and even rubbing my eyes which are now sore, I finally can only sigh heavily. Ah, lo

    Subconsciously I raised my hand, touching Alliando's forehead with the back of my hand. Then put one palm to my own forehead. As if making sure that Alliando doesn't have a fever"Huh? What are you doing?”Alliando's face immediately turned sour, making me quickly withdraw my hand and smile awkwardly"Ah, sorry, I thought you had a fever"I answered."Hah? Fever? What do you mean?""Ehm.. that.. usually people with fever often say something that doesn't make sense"As soon as he heard my words, Alliando immediately looked at me sharply“So you mean, I just said something nonsensical?”he asked in a fierce voice.I subconsciously nodded my head, although the next second I immediately shook my head because I saw Alliando's face getting redder."Ah.. I mean..""Don't bother explaining!"Alliando rose from his chair. He then walked into the r

    I stood beside the dining table, looking at Alliando who was enjoying the breakfast I served. Thankfully he ate quietly and didn't say anything. Though I thought at least he would sneer at the taste of the food I brought."Are you done, sir?"I asked when I saw Alliando put down his cutlery. He answered my question with a nod of his head, making me quickly walk over and clear things up.'Alright, there's still half an hour before school starts'I mumbled while glancing at the clock on the wall for a moment, then in a light-fast motion finished all the remaining work."Yeah, done!!"I shouted softly, took off the apron I was wearing and put it back at its place. After making sure that everything was in order, I immediately grabbed my bag, rushed out of Alliando's apartment to head to school.Alliando's apartment is actually not too far from the school. It only takes about 15 minutes by

    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

    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

  • Billionaire's First Love   Empty Shell

    "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
