Afterward, there's a relief that comes along with your body feeling like it's been turned upside down. Even though Tata hasn't tried where the fun lies in those mini cars running on twisty tracks from varying heights, she already feels like her life often makes her heart work harder. Just like now.
Many eyes are focused on her. If she were a model, that's what would be expected. Being the center of attention and what she shows getting more appreciation. Unfortunately, Tata is not a model. Since entering the corridor connecting several divisions in her office, she has felt quite a difference. Including Yessy and Peoni who immediately approach her.
"What's up?" Tata asks, puzzled.
"Ta, is that really your husband?" Yessy asks impatiently. Maybe after telling Tata the news, the woman now sitting in front of her kept silent. Two messages

Every living being will meet their Creator. Tata firmly believes that. Although not overly religious, she tries her best to fulfill her obligations. This includes believing that death is as close as a heartbeat, and therefore, living as virtuously as possible. Good deeds alone may not necessarily be rewarded with beauty, but what if one continues to do wrong? Although everything done has consequences, logic says, "Do good first. God knows how to repay it."Just like now. She never imagined having to stand in a crowd mostly dressed in black. The scorching sun doesn't deter many from continuing the procession. There are tears and mournful glances among the gathering. Especially from the woman always accompanied by the teary-eyed little girl. The woman wails repeatedly, calling 'mother' over and over again, sometimes even having to be carried as she suddenly weakens.However, the woman vehemently refuses to step aside. As if unwilling to leave one moment on her last day s

"Geez, why are you so gloomy, Ta?" Jenni exclaims. For the past hour, her friend has been silent. Not speaking, not touching the food in front of her, and her tea has gone cold from neglect. "What's up? Not just today, you've been like this lately.""It's nothing, Jen. I just need some time to think.""Oh, come on!" Jenni sighs, tapping her forehead. "I'm here, Ta. You can talk to me. What do you think I am, anyway?" She's getting frustrated with Tata's behavior. "You usually spill everything, don't you?"Tata's shoulders slump."It's related to something very private, Jen.""Ta." Jenni presses a little. She grabs her friend's shoulder so they're facing each other. "Listen to me carefully. If it's about privacy and it's bothering you, I get it. But if it's making you as upset as being left at the altar by Levi, I won't accept it!"Tata sighs. "That's not it."She never imagined something like that happening. It seems a bit terrifying.
Hello, My Ex! This is My Daughter from My New Husband [48]
Tata was reading the report Gina had sent half an hour ago through her email. The café she visited this time wasn't too far from where Echa had her counseling session. For the past week, this woman deliberately stayed in Kuala Lumpur. Besides relieving stress, she also had to meet clients in Johor Bahru. Gina had scheduled a meeting for the day after tomorrow with many important discussions.The atmosphere in this café isn't much different from the ones in Jakarta. Most people just stop by for a moment, then leave with a few cups of their orders. Or if someone chooses to stay, they're pretty much like Tata; busy looking at their work screen. One by one, she finishes her tasks. She's not someone who enjoys spending time without doing anything."May I... sit here?"Tata looks up, her eyes widening as she finds out who's talking in front of her. Rahayu."Sorry, don't chase me away just yet. I beg you," she pleads, even though Tata hasn't said a

The night where it all begins.Tata doesn't care what's gotten into her. She knows one thing for sure. Her palm pushes a bit roughly against the chest of the still-astonished man before her."Kiss me more," she whispers. The man's gaze, Levi's, is fixed intensely on hers.He immediately complies. Levi. Planting a long, passionate kiss, this time allowing himself to ignite with desire. He doesn't care that the woman in his arms belongs to someone else. Levi succumbs to Tata's charm and mysterious allure.Until they both collapse in the middle of the bed, the kiss never breaks for a moment. They devour each other, sucking and nibbling away. Exploring every inch of each other's lips, now moist from their play. When Levi momentarily breaks their kiss, he intentionally meets Tata's gaze."Say stop now, Ta. I won't continue."Unfortunately, she shakes her head."Where would I want to stop?"Her hands skillfully start to unbutton Levi

"Ma'am, we're all set," Tata lowers her work tablet. She smiles upon seeing Gina in front of her desk. The girl has a cheerful expression, followed by Tata's increasingly solid team.Her achievements over the past year have made rapid progress. Her projects never fail to meet targets even though she had to work overtime several times a month. There were challenges, sure, but everyone worked together to overcome them. And in the end, it yielded very satisfying results for both clients and the Board of Directors.The name Samanta Kiehl shines brighter at ShopaShop. It puts her among the managers with a shining career. Since the incident that dragged her name a few months ago, almost everyone at ShopaShop knows Tata's single status now.With her beautiful appearance, independence, elegance, and her skill at work, Tata knows she receives a lot of sympathy from men there. Inside and outside ShopaShop. Unfortunately... Tata ignores all that. For her, Levi is enough fo

(This here's the story about Levi Mathias' ex-wife, Liliana Bertha. It goes way back before Levi met Samantha at ShopaShop. Lily, the woman Levi divorced 'cause he thought she couldn't bear children. Back then, Levi was fooling around with Rahayu 'til Echa came along. And it's Lily's story that made Levi realize he'd hurt a woman real bad. Their story goes down in Indonesia. Hope it's clear.)Quiet just kept hanging in the air with those four folks there. One of 'em, a woman with shoulder-length straight hair, just stared straight ahead, blank-faced. While the other two looked at her with pity, like they could feel all the pain she was going through. Ah, then there's one more, seems like he's happy. You can tell 'cause that handsome face cracks a smile, even if just a little."Got this letter from the court. I'll take care of it right away, get all this business sorted," says the guy.The expressionless woman just nods quietly, glancing briefly at the white envelope with the Religious

Lily purposely chose to travel tens of miles tonight. Her prayers whispering full of hiding. Big hopes on time, for the pieces of her pain to slowly peel away one by one. Two years wasted felt enough for her. Drowning in anguish, dimming her own light.The past indeed so mighty in eroding her sanity level. That's why she's here now. Making a big decision called peace. Needing strong determination, fierce desire, and full belief, that the path she's chosen is the best one.According to her version.Old songs from the eighties accompany her throughout the overland journey she's taking. She deliberately chose to use a travel bus instead of a train or plane. She wants to enjoy every meter of distance stretched by the God. Placing each piece of pain she holds at every bus stop she embarks on. Who knows, the wind might carry those pieces to the eye of the storm, where they'll be crushed until nothing's left. Then she'll be reborn, perhaps like a butterfly completing its metamorphosis.Hopef

"You sure about this, Lily?"The woman called Lily forms a curve on her lips. She uses her fingers to gently touch her conversation partner's hand. There's a tone of concern in her voice, she can feel it."Sure. I don't wanna trouble your family any longer. Besides, it's a legit job." Her words are full of conviction. Her eyes hint at a slight plea."But promise me one thing, Lily. If you're not comfortable, you come straight back here. Taking care of a child is tough, you know."Liliana Bertha, only a few close to her call her Lily, chuckles softly. "Yeah, I know." Her determination is firm.Since graduation, Risa Andita—Lily's friend, has been living in Jakarta. Armed with a diploma from a prestigious university in Surabaya, Risa has become quite successful in her career.

Days go by, months roll by, years also add up. But one thing is timeless. Togetherness in the two-story house that is now never quiet again. Sometimes Anna's voice fills the corners of the room where Nika is too active to move. The seven-year-old is like a deer in headlights. She can't keep still. I don't know where her energy comes from. Anna is not afraid that something will break or fall because of Nika. But she was worried that her granddaughter would get hurt because she was too agile. Running here and there, sometimes jumping up and down while laughing merrily. Fortunately, Levant could accompany Nika's activities, although the youngest daughter had to wait until her middle sister came home from school. Meanwhile, Cheryl was really busy with her studies. Levant also started to have a lot of activities at school. Even so, Cheryl never wasted time with her family. Even Levant. Whenever there is an opportunity to get together, they do it with great j

Lily gazed at Nika, who had fallen asleep, fondly. She still remembered how she gave birth to her youngest daughter. Although there was a lot of drama, her gratitude never subsided. "Sleep well, sweetheart. Sweet dreams." She gently kissed Nika's forehead as she prayed, "Oh God, always protect my children from nightmares. From people with evil intentions. From the hypocrites around them. Make them good and virtuous children." Fixing the edge of Nika's blanket properly, tidying up the books that Nika had messed up, and making sure the room temperature was comfortable, Lily left the room. Which turned out to be awaited by James. "Not sleeping yet?" asked Lily, who carefully closed the door to Nika's room. "I can't sleep if you're not around." James sulked exactly like Levant. That's why Lily often joked that her husband transformed into his son when he was five years old. All Lily could do was to mess up James' rather messy hair.

Even though it was loud and noisy in her father's luxury SUV, Cheryl still had a quiet spot. Even though her mouth occasionally asked Levant not to tease her youngest sister, who had no idea where Levant's nosy behavior had come from, it was still a niche that sometimes demanded attention. She deliberately created a void in her heart to imprison the figure of Keana there. The figure that should have been there when she was sad, worried, lonely, read her stories, prepared her breakfast, and all sorts of activities that little Lily used to do. Like the woman who sat beside her father; who was never late to accompany her to do anything, even when she arrived in her red and white uniform. Not in a kindergarten uniform or even a time when her memory was not too perfect. The trip to one of the malls in Central Jakarta didn't take too long. Once in the parking area, James asked Levant and Nika's nanny to enter the shopping center first.

In the past, it took a lot of effort for Lily to get Cheryl to talk. This time, Cheryl could easily tell Lily anything, especially what happened to her. From her activities at school to her friends who she finds annoying. Cheryl had something to tell Lily. For her, talking to her mom is fun. Unlike her father, who often teases her. Especially about relationships with the opposite sex. "What's wrong, mom?" Cheryl folded her arms across her chest. Her face was sullen. The look in her eyes held irritation. "What's wrong with Papa?" Lily folded her smile. She reached out her hand to tidy up her daughter's long hair which was a bit messy. "I was asked about Noah. Am I his friend? When did I become Noah Narendra's friend?" "Drink the milk first, okay?" "I'm not Levant, Mom." Cheryl still didn't accept being treated like a child.Even so, she accepted the glass Lily handed her. She sipped slowly,

The second pregnancy was a bit risky for Lily. Her age made her worry, although not as much as the happiness that surrounded her. The doctor said, "As long as you take care of your womb, condition, and food intake, God willing, it will be fine." For Lily, everything that poured into her life now was more than a gift. What she had hoped for all this time, the millions of prayers she made in every prostration happened so easily. As if without burden, God gave her that wish when Lily let go of everything. When she let go of being a childless woman. Cheryl was enough for her to show off. Risa's advice to Lily was exactly that. So when her first pregnancy happened, the happiness was not only hers. But her whole family. Nita and Rianto often traveled to Jakarta to see their first grandchild grow. As befits the name Lily gave her second child-for Cheryl was her first-Levant Akala Virza. She hopes that her life will be as bright as her name.

The man was still frozen in front of the steering wheel. There was a moment of hesitation before he decided to actually get out and walk towards the place where James Adam's fare wall party was being held. Today, his coworker resigned. He chose to continue the business he had started rather than struggle under the command of someone else. There was a mountain of curiosity in the man's heart. Especially the words that had been bothering him since this morning. "I'm definitely missing Mr. James at work."He said honestly. His coworker this time was very dedicated to work."Mr. Levi could have. I had intended to resign a long time ago but the timing always clashed. It just so happens that my wife is spoiled beyond belief, asking to be accompanied at home.""Pregnant women have different hormones, boss," said Denny, James Adam's assistant. "Ms. Lily is so independent when she's spoiled, it's really funny.""Don't imagine someone's wife. Date someone else!"

"Where's Lily, James?" It was James' turn to be puzzled by such a question. Since leaving the room he had chosen to tidy up the files in his study first and then head to the dining room. Usually his wife, Sari, was preparing breakfast. But this morning, she wasn't there. Plus his mother's question just now. "Probably in Cheryl's room." That was all James could answer.

Lily is tired? She must be.However, her heart was happy because in addition to the wedding party that she had once dreamed of, it was perfectly realized by her husband. Even her wishes regarding the bridal room. Although she had protested, Lily was able to get her husband to comply. There was no bridal suite in the place where she spent her first night after becoming husband and wife. Even though the hotel had offered the most luxurious package to Lily, she refused. James actually didn't understand Lily's way of thinking. Wouldn't she be amazed to see how beautifully the bridal suite was decorated?James was eager to ask, but a smile and a sad look appeared on Lily's beautiful face. He did not want to ask further. Maybe later, when she was in a better mood, he would ask her about it."Tired?" asked James when he entered the room.He glanced at his wife who w

BALI The man frowns. The wedding invitation the receptionist had just given him was enough to make him tingle, but he would still tell his employer. There was no way he could hide this invitation from her."Keana," Andri called out loudly as he entered the long-haired woman's apartment unit."What the hell, you're screaming incoherently!"Keana, who was putting on her eyelashes, felt suddenly distracted. She felt like throwing her assistant with the boots next to her. It took a lot of concentration to put on those lashes and Andri succeeded in distracting her."I have a surprise for you."Andri grinned innocently. Handing the invitation to the woman. Keana snorted in displeasure but she read it anyway. She read the wedding invitation that came to her for a long time."When will it arrive?" She was still flipping through the ivory-colored invitat
