2024-10-29 19:42:56The woman wandered around. Counting the many possible encounters with the man made her a little uneasy. She was at a loss for what to say, while in the frequent chats sent to her, the man convinced Lily to work there.
She was supposed to come today to fulfill the invitation to sign the contract. But she refuses with full conviction.
In front of her, Cheryl seemed engrossed in her cell phone. Occasionally her head sways, making her pigtails move. Sometimes her forehead furrowed, and her lips pursed, perhaps annoyed that her game was lost. Often she cheered cheerfully when she got a high score. Lily actually recorded it clearly in her mind.
Her uniform had changed into an Ice bear printed T-shirt complete with her name. On the sleeves, Lily had deliberately made creases up to the base of the sleeves. For some reason, a sweatshirt with such a style combined with short jeans with lace accents at the bottom, looked sweet and cute on the girl.
Cheryl didn't fee

In the room, Lily opened a large red folder containing important documents regarding her identity. They were not originals, but they were all legalized, showing the validity of the documents. There was only one original sheet, which she would hand over until the time came. Submitting to her ex-husband and this would definitely lead to a meeting. She did not expect the time requested in every prostration to be granted by God so quickly.Lily should have been ready, right? Although she could not deny it, the feeling was still so suffocating. It made it difficult for Lily to breathe normally. She had to prepare her heart for all possibilities. All the memories that were vividly imprinted on her, played out without her being able to control even just remembering his name. The name that she used to pray for in every moment with the Creator.The beautiful memories with Levi Mathias were worth the pain the man had inflicted on her. Twelve years of a crumbling marriage and two

James read Lily's written report carefully. His forehead occasionally furrowed but he couldn't help but smile."I'm glad Cheryl hasn't been making my head spin lately."Lily only responded with a small corner line on her lips."You can really keep up with my daughter, huh.""Basically, every child is not naughty, sir. It's only us adults who can't get inside her head."James chuckled. He got up and took his usual stance."I think the report on Cheryl is finished, right, sir?" It seemed that the employer didn't really hear Lily's voice which was indeed unclear. "I'll take my leave then.""Wait. I still want to talk."Feeling that she was still being held here, Lily stopped herself from walking out of the room."It's about Mr. Levi."Lily froze. Letting the minutes pass cruelly because she was too busy listening to what her employer had just said."He wants to talk to you, Miss Lily."James seemed to c

The waves greeted Lily, and the salty smell had been wafting from the speed boat with the final destination of Tiger Island. The scorching sun before noon welcomed them there.A flurry of beautiful memories of the beach surfaced. Begging Lily to remember them, she ignored them. She took a deep breath and started focusing on how to at least enjoy the time without thinking about anything else.Anna took her on a vacation. Everyone in the big house was going without exception. Nina was excited when Anna made the announcement of the vacation. She said, "Nina will cook a lot there, Mrs. Anna. Grilled fish, grilled squid, if you can get crabs, mom. Later, Mr. James and Mr. Ahmad will do a lot of fishing."The middle-aged woman laughed at the ramblings of one of the people who helped her at home. Even Sari and Ahmad. They welcomed it no less cheerfully. For them, it was a free vacation."Miss, let's not take too long. I want to swim already!" Cheryl's shout made

"Do you really have to?"James frowned in surprise at the news Denny had brought. All the way from home, his mood, if put into sLily percentages, was at a thousand. Then it was destroyed by the information Denny had just told him. She had to attend an introduction session for their company's new ambassador candidate. The contract was no joke, for one semester. Usually the selection of a new face is only for one quarter."She's in the top ranks of famous models, anyway."James' movements, who was inking one of the contracts, stopped."Model? Usually artists.""Big boss if you want something different, James."James shrugged. "What time are we scheduled for the day?"He wanted to stay in his room. While later in the day, making video calls to his favorite daughter was the sneakiest way he had to hear Lily's voice.He still vividly remembers the casual conversation during the walk along the beach two nights ago. Just a casual conv

"Lily, don't you want to go home?"Her mother's voice trembled slightly on the other end. Lily held back the tears that were already rolling down her cheeks in one blink. Don't ask her how much she missed her mother. But it all vanished as she slowly remembered how the middle-aged woman had dealt with her."I haven't gotten my leave yet, Mom."There was a sigh of disappointment ringing in her ears."Don't stay too long in Jakarta, Lily. Help me here better."It wasn't that she didn't want to be with her mother at the shop. The two years she spent at home helping her mother in the shop did not make her heart feel better. Lots of questions, not a single ounce of compassion, not to mention the advice that led to her being blamed for what happened to her. Lily had enough of that. Her mother? Instead of defending her or giving her a shoulder, she was often talked down to. If it wasn't for her father who occasionally warned her, her mother

James took his work screen quite seriously. Every now and then he slides over another sheet and makes comparisons. Marketing design said this was the final concept. But James felt there was something missing in some parts."James, aren't you eating?"James looked up. He glanced at the Tag Heuer, it was twelve minutes to five. He sighed softly."You should call Mr. Levi first. After lunch, I want to discuss with him. I'm afraid he's going out for a meeting."Denny just nodded and immediately carried out James' orders. "What a coincidence, Mr. Levi was just discussing with you after lunch."Just as James was about to get ready and turn on the sleep mode on his laptop screen, the cell phone that was still on the table rang. A video call came in that made James smile."Hello, Princess.""Hi, Papa." His cell phone screen immediately displayed the tired yet smiling face of his princess."How come you're home?" James was surprised but

It had been a week since Lily had last been to her employer's office. Now, she had to go back there, to take the young lady to pick up her father. She counted the chances of meeting the man as enormous. Very high. Moreover, the scope of her employer's work, according to Lily's belief, must be close. This time, James allowed Lily to wait for him in the car. For some reason, the permission James gave her earlier made her relieved. In the evening, she would thank him sincerely for that.She did not want any coincidences that could not be tolerated anymore. Even though her employer had asked, Lily didn't feel it was worth mentioning. It was her zone of privacy. She was not just anyone who would tell a story just to get sympathy. She wasn't.Nevertheless, Lily did not stop trying to make up her mind that the day would come when she would have to meet Levi. Her ex-husband. And she had decided on this night. Lily had calculated the various possibilities that would happen. Esp

Lily let out a long breath. She tightened her grip on the strap of her tote bag. She got out of the car slowly, determined that this would be the last time. After thanking the middle-aged man profusely for making time for her."Mr. James is worried about Miss Lily. I'm not bothered either," he said, which made Lily feel even worse. Sunday was supposed to be his day off. Mr. Ahmad was asked to drive and wait for Lily, as per his employer's orders. At first he refused, but James always had a way of keeping Lily quiet.James said, "Jakarta is big. You will get lost. It's better to be dropped off and waited for. It won't take long to meet Mr. Levi, right?"Not to mention he had to persuade Cheryl not to come along. It wasn't easy considering Lily was with him almost every day. Just like stamps, inseparably sticky. He promised that after he was done with his business, he would accompany Cheryl swimming. She also made cookies topped with colorful choco chips.C

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. "Morning, Grandma. Morning, Papa." Cheryl, cheerfully approached her father as well as her grandmother. Giving a good morning kiss befor

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
