"This is the first time I've seen you bring a friend, honey!"

Mama walked up to me and Alliando. Judging by her appearance, she must have just come home from work. I just smiled awkwardly when Mom asked again, really not sure how to react. My eyes checked Alliando's reaction, who had been silent all this time without saying anything. However, his expression was very unpredictable. I thought Alliando would walk away as soon as he heard mother's voice. I didn't think he would still stand where he was even if he just silent.

"Wow, I didn't expect you to have such a cool friend!"

Mama nudged my shoulder while move her eyebrows up and down to tease me. But still, I couldn't help but laugh awkwardly. It seems like mama didn't notice the awkwardness between us as she kept talking about how happy she was that I finally brought a friend home.

"Ah, sorry for the nagging!"

As if realizing that Alliando had been silent all this time, Mama then walked

    New semester, new class..I looked at my face in the mirror, to be more precise at my now wavy hair with a contemporary cut. Thankfully this model fits my face perfectly. Though at first I was hesitant when Wayne offered to do my hair in order to welcome the 'new beginning'. Ah by the way, lately I rarely see Wayne. Though usually he always appears suddenly in front of me. I even thought that he no longer lived there because his house was empty.Not only do my hair, Wayne also gave me a bag and shoes which I'm sure are very expensive. Again he said it was a gift from him to welcome a 'new beginning'. Hmm, looks like when I get my salary from Alliando, I have to treat him to dinner."Well, let's go!"I smiled as I punched the air, then joined mom at the dinner table. I can see mom's happy face when she looks at me. Lately she's been telling me that I'm a lot brighter than usual. Moreover, these few days Alliando always stopped by my house every tim

    “Wow, your painting is really cool!”"Why? Are you having trouble studying chemistry? Take it easy, girl! Smart does not mean good at math, physics or chemistry. Smart is when you do what you can earnestly and wholeheartedly!”I still remember the enthusiastic face of Mr. Thomas at that time. Like an oasis in the middle of the desert, Mr. Thomas gives his own freshness to my life, which often feels like a failure. Although when I first saw him, I was skeptical and thought he was just like any other teacher. He will turn a blind eye for the good name of the school and ignore people like me! Sad? Of course! But didn't anyone say that life can be that sad and unfair sometimes?Whether it's because he's young or because he's a principled person, Mr. Thomas really hates bullying. He did not hesitate to stand between the victim and the perpetrator, then forced the perpetrator to apologize to the victim. One of them is me. He

    "You!!"Before I stepped into the living room, the sound of my mother's shocked screams was heard in my ears, making my body instantly feel weak. I wish Alliando was the one who opened the door instead of mama so he could take Uncle Jackson away as soon as possible. Although the reason Alliando prevented Uncle Jackson was so that Mama would not know that he was Uncle Richard's son.I can only clench my fists while biting my lips, my brain seems to be stuck and can't think of anything. My eyes only fell on Mama who widened her eyes with a look of horror. Her forefinger was pointed at Uncle Jackson's face with a trembling body. Meanwhile, Uncle Jackson, his reaction was not much different from his mother. His eyes were also wide with a pale face, as if he was seeing a ghost."E.. Elena?"He muttered softly. Whether consciously or not, Uncle Jackson began to step forward with outstretched arms, as if to reach out to Ma

    Well, the sky really looks pretty when you're really enjoying it.I walked with my head raised, staring at the white clouds hanging in the sky. This is my first time coming home when the sky is still clear after starting work at Alliando's apartment. Today I deliberately asked permission to take a day off from work and go home early. I want to prepare a nice dinner to cheer up mama. Because, for me and mama, good food is the best medicine for our sad hearts.Huh?My steps immediately stopped right in front of my house, staring in shock at Uncle Jackson who was standing in front of my door with his head down."What are you doing here, uncle?"As soon as he heard my question, he immediately raised his head, looking at me with a sad and regretful look,"I'm sorry, Sha. Uncle didn't know that you were Elena's daughter..."He said in a weary voice. His shoulders seemed to be drooping, as if he was carrying a very heavy burden,"Uncl

  • Billionaire's First Love   Why is He with Mom?

    Since that day, grandpa has been constantly coming to the house to have dinner with us. I'm actually quite happy because grandpa doesn't usually come empty-handed. He often brings premium groceries and snacks which I believe can cost more than my salary working at Alliando's apartment. Of course, Mom was still very awkward around Grandpa. The only one who looked comfortable was grandpa. He laughed and talked a lot, making the image of himself in my previous life that was so cold and rigid instantly disappear from my head.Besides grandpa, there is actually one more person who always comes to my house. Of course that person was Uncle Jackson. Almost every day I see him in front of my house. And for that reason I decided to clean Alliando's apartment as fast as lightning and then rushed home. So that I can get home earlier than mama and can ask uncle to come home. As for Alliando, for a while I asked him not to stop by my house or take me home until I explained ev

    Moments before…Alliando stared at the window of a bakery shop, or rather looked at a woman who was serving customers with a big smile on her face. Every now and then he sighed, who knows how many times his feet had stepped forward as well as stepped back, unsure whether he should approach the woman or not.Maybe people will say he's weird. Just a moment ago, that woman was still the woman he hated the most on this earth. But, just by spending a few moments with that woman, he realized that his feelings were shaking. And now, he didn't like seeing her sad. Ah, he was sure his mother would be very angry up there if she found out how close his son was to the woman who ruined their household."Can you think of me as your aunt? Because taking your mother's place is impossible!”Alliando smiled faintly as he remembered Elena's words when he told her about he no longer having parents. He remembered how Elena

    "Why are you two together?"I whispered in Alliando's ear after making sure mom was in her room. To be honest, I was really surprised when I saw the two of them go home with both eyes red from crying. But that's not what surprised me, what surprised me the most was, they seemed to be talking casually as if nothing had happened. Just imagine! Though I thought they would at least be awkward with each other!Alliando who was currently washing the dishes seriously as if it was a very important state duty glanced at me briefly, before turning his attention back to the plate in his hand again,"Hmm, by any chance?"He said nonchalantly while shrugging his shoulders, making me instantly feel annoyed and pinching his stomach in exasperation."Ouch!"He groaned in pain, although from his expression I could tell he was just faking it."Come on! Can you not answer my question properly and correctly?”"Well, are we working on sch

    "Well, they must be really busy..."Andreas immediately responded to my words with a nod of his head. Currently we are standing by the window, looking at Siena and Alliando who are busy working on something in the field with Mr. Thomas and the other field trip committee members. I laughed when I saw Siena and Alliando start fighting again. I don't know what they were arguing about, even though a few seconds before they were just fine."Don't they look good together?"I subconsciously turned my face towards some of my classmates who were looking out the window too. They also looked at Siena and Alliando.“Yup, I feel that way too. Wow, if they really were dating, I'm sure they would make a phenomenal couple in the history of this school!"They started laughing and nodding their heads in agreement. Even some people who are members of the Alliando fan club agree with the idea that Siena and Alliando become lovers. They said, if it was Si

  • Billionaire's First Love   Happy Ending

    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
