After Damian's departure, Sira decided to clean her kitchen quickly. Since her eyes were already sleepy, she glanced briefly at the clock on the wall.“I'll probably be done in about an hour,” muttered Sira as she looked at Damian's work on her kitchen. Sira suddenly became annoyed, but her annoyance disappeared when she remembered how considerate Damian had been in making her dinner. And she was even happier to know that it was made by Damian's own hands.While cleaning up her messy kitchen due to Damian's actions, Sira put earphones into her ears and started listening to the music that so energized her.“Today we stand, facing a world full of dreamsWe won't falter, we won't back down, we'll keep moving forwardEvery step we take is sure, no matter the obstacles that come our wayBecause we have the determination, to achieve all hopesDon't you ever give up, we can conquer everythingWith a burning heart, we can do itWelcome the sunny day, don't be afraid of failureWe will fly high
Sira was ready to go to work as usual. After taking her body off for two days, Sira felt awkward going back to work as usual.“What will Mrs. Liem say when she sees me coming back to work,” Sira said as she closed the door. Before leaving, she looked at the sophisticated door that Damin had replaced.“That man is unrivaled. He doesn't even hesitate to renovate my house,” Sira continued and descended the stairs.The sky was so clear that even though it was already quite late in the afternoon, the heat still burned Sira's now smooth and clean skin. Over time, the scars and blue marks on her body slowly disappeared. She was very grateful to be free from Mario and his family.“I wonder how their lives will go?” Sira suddenly remembered how Damian cruelly ordered his guards to torture Mario and his family.Sira grimaced, she had been in that position, “It turned out to be more horrible than I expected,” said Sira re-imagining how Mario's family was treated. Until this moment, Sira still re
Sira rested her limbs for a moment, as she had been busy cooking and reading the recipes given by Chef Brian. Suddenly Sira's eyes fell on her bag and hesitantly grabbed the cell phone inside. Hoping Damian would send her a message just for fun.“I hope you're okay. It looks like my work is taking a long time to finish.” Sira's heart was racing, sure enough Damian had just sent a message to her cell phone. She smiled happily, even her face flushed for a moment.“Why am I this happy to receive a message from Damian,” Sira muttered, patting her face repeatedly. And quickly turned her gaze back to the phone screen.“I'm fine. And I hope you are too.” Sira quickly replied to Damian's message. Her heart was so excited, it was like she found a new spirit to work.Without even realizing it, she continued cooking by humming happily. Roy happened to be there, he was quite surprised to observe Sira who suddenly turned 180 degrees different from before who looked very sad.“Does Sira have multipl
It was time to go home from work, but Sira had yet to remove her earphones from her ears. She was still enjoying the songs from her favorite earphones. Even though she had stopped cooking earlier, and Sira had changed her work clothes to her regular clothes. Roy was not long in coming, Sira knew that but she continued to listen to her music casually.The song Sira was listening to was none other than “Sparkling Love”. The girl continued to listen to her music without paying the slightest attention to Roy.Under the sparkling night sky, she walked with a dazzling smile. Her heart fluttered, love grew in the dark, A secret that only the two of them knew.The stars watched, silently testifying, This love was unstoppable, uncontrollable. She is the spring in his arid heart, Turning his world into colors.She wrote poetry in his mind, Carving her name in every stanza. Fate brought her into the arms of the poet, Between unspoken words.The stars watched, silently testifying, This love was u
Sira peeked through the door of her house, the order she had ordered was already at her doorstep. Quickly, Sira grabbed the order and brought it into the house. Before that, she made sure that the door was locked properly.“I couldn't stay still. Even that stranger has entered my dream,” muttered Sira who was annoyed by the taxi driver who had suddenly followed her.Sira was in a confused situation, she wanted to tell Damian, but here was another, Sira felt that she would inconvenience Damian.Sira exhaled roughly, “What should I do? Or maybe I find out information about martial arts training places from Roy?” Sira said, she suddenly remembered. And hoped Roy would tell her the best place to train.Sira looked at the clock on the wall, she almost forgot she had an appointment with Roy.“Ah... of course eating together. I almost forgot about it.” Sira then headed for the bathroom to quickly clean herself up, and put on her usual clothes. Because after finishing the meal together with R
“Bugh!”Damian was still standing where he was, not moving an inch. His body was still upright when his father hit Damian on the back with a stick made of real wood that was very strong.“Do you know why I called you here?” His father looked at Damian intensely. An aura of cruelty instantly appeared, glaring at Damian.“No.” Damian loudly replied. He had no idea what his father was calling him for.“Nonsense!” Once again his father smacked the cane against Damian's back. But it didn't make him collapse instantly. His body was still sturdy and strong enough to take the blows from his father.“Then who is that woman? How dare you play at love! Have you forgotten your purpose?” Damian's father questioned him.“You couldn't even handle Mario's case, could you!” Damian's father was furious, he shouted in Damian's face.Damian was used to his father's temper from the beginning. It even made Damian wonder if his father had no compassion at all, or just a little kindness in his heart.Damian
Tom, following behind Damian. He witnessed how Damian boldly defied his father."Unexpectedly, Damian really changed drastically after meeting Sira. I think Damian is hiding the truth about Sira. It's impossible for him to love a woman so much, and give up all the power he has," Tom thought as he stared at Damian's broad back."Is there an important meeting I have to attend?" asked Damian, he suddenly turned around, frowning as he asked Tom.Tom quickly shook his head, "Nothing for today. Just a normal meeting, you don't need to come," Tom replied then followed Damian anyway."What are you going to do?" asked Tom when he saw Damian walk out of his father's house."Back home, of course. There's no way I'm staying with that old man again," Damian said calling his father an old man.Tom quickly nodded, "Alright. Let me drive," Tom said and opened the door to Damian's car.Damian didn't protest much and sat in the seat next to him. After getting in, he let out a rough breath and loosened t
Damian and Joy were two curious and energetic little friends. One day, their parents took them to visit a farm on the edge of town. This farm was known as a place full of various farm animals, from cows, goats, to chickens and horses. Both of them were very enthusiastic, as this was their first time visiting a farm.Upon arrival, Damian with his messy curls and Joy with a big smile on her face, immediately ran to the goat pen. "Look, Joy, the goats are so cute!" exclaimed Damian as he pointed to a little goat kid running around in the pen.Joy, who had shoulder-length straight hair and sparkling eyes, chuckled. "Yes, Damian! Let's try to feed them!" she said as she picked up a bunch of grass that had been prepared beside the pen.Carefully, Damian and Joy offered the grass to the goats. The goats quickly approached and started eating the grass from their hands. Joy laughed as she felt the goats' rough tongues touching her hands. "This is so cute, Damian!" she said with a big smile.
After returning from his studies abroad, Leo felt ready to take the next big step in his life. He was already preparing to confess his love to Alia, despite being nervous and anxious about the possibility of rejection. However, the courage and confidence he had gained during his studies gave him the impetus to go ahead with the plan.One afternoon, Leo invited Alia for a walk in the park where they often spent time together. The serene and romantic atmosphere of the afternoon was very favorable for this momentous occasion.As they stopped at their favorite spot, Leo took the ring out of his pocket and looked at Alia soulfully."Alia, I've been meaning to tell you something important. During my time away from home, I realized how precious you are in my life. I love you more than anything, and I want us to spend the rest of our lives together."Alia was surprised and moved by Leo's statement. She stared at the ring with teary eyes, and after a few seconds, she nodded with emotion. "Leo
As the new school year approached, Leo finally decided to take a big step in his life. After much consideration and support from his parents and Alia, Leo decided to continue his education abroad. He felt that studying abroad was a valuable opportunity to develop the skills and knowledge necessary to one day become a successor in the family company.The news of his decision was broken to Alia with mixed feelings. Although they had talked a lot about the future, Leo knew that this news would be a big test in their relationship.One afternoon, Leo and Alia sat together in the park, their favorite place to talk. Leo seemed more serious than usual as he started talking."Alia, I have some important news. I've been accepted to the overseas university I applied to. I've decided to study there starting next month."Alia was shocked to hear this news. She felt a mixture of pride and sadness. "Wow, Leo, that's amazing! I'm so proud of you. But I also feel sad that we have to part ways for a w
As time passed, Leo began to realize that his feelings for Alia were deepening. He felt a genuine tremor of love every time he was with Alia, but he felt unsure about expressing it.Although Alia was a kind and caring girl, Leo felt that he still had a lot of flaws to work on before he could claim a place in Alia's heart.Every time they spent time together-whether it was studying, playing sports, or just chatting in the schoolyard-Leo felt a stronger bond. However, he also felt pressured by the high expectations he set for himself. He feared that if he confessed his feelings and Alia didn't feel it back, he would ruin their existing relationship.One afternoon, after classes ended, Leo and Alia sat in the quiet school garden. They often spent time here talking and enjoying the atmosphere. That day, Leo seemed more reserved than usual, and Alia could sense that something was on his mind."Leo, do you have something to talk about?" Alia asked softly, looking at him attentively.Leo le
Time marches on, and Leo, Sira and Damian's only child, is now a teenager. At the age of 16, Leo has grown into an impressive young man. The genetic inheritance from his parents gave him a handsome appearance, with a tall and athletic body. His jet-black hair and piercing eyes have fascinated many people.But it's not just his looks that make Leo special. He inherited kindness from Sira and mental strength from Damian. Leo was always friendly to everyone, never feeling like he was superior even though so many admired him. He was known at school as a smart and diligent student, but remained humble and always ready to help his friends.At school, Leo was the center of attention. Many girls were mesmerized by his good looks and gentle personality. They often admired Leo from a distance, trying to find ways to attract his attention. However, Leo never thought too much about it. For him, the main priority was to study and excel, and maintain the harmony of the family he loved so much.S
After feeling so refreshed and energized after their last trip, Sira and Damian decided to take Leo on a new adventure-this time to a more secluded scenic hillside, where they could get closer to nature. They planned to camp for a few days, build a tent and live in simplicity, away from the comforts of home.They set off on a sunny morning. The journey to the hills took a few hours, but the scenery they passed through was breathtaking. Towering mountains in the distance, lush green forests, and clear rivers flowing serenely accompanied them on their journey. Leo was excited, constantly wondering about what they would find there.When they arrived at their chosen location, a vast green plain with a direct view of the valley, Sira and Damian immediately began setting up the tent. Damian taught Leo how to pitch the tent, while Sira prepared their supplies. The cool, fresh mountain air made everything feel so pleasant.That first night in the hills was an amazing experience for the lit
Sira felt a significant change in her health. After undergoing intensive treatment and complete rest, her lung infection gradually subsided. One morning, when she woke up, there was a tremendous relief in her chest. He could breathe more freely without the pain that once tormented him. His body also began to regain its vigor, and he felt more refreshed than ever.When Damian saw these signs of improvement, he immediately smiled widely and hugged Sira gratefully. "You're getting better, Sira. I know you'll make it through," he said with teary eyes.Sira returned Damian's hug, feeling such genuine love. "It's all thanks to you, Damian. You're always there for me."News of Sira's improvement quickly spread among their family and friends. Damian immediately informed their parents and closest relatives. The next day, their home was filled with laughter and happiness as family came to visit to celebrate Sira's recovery. They brought flowers, Sira's favorite foods, and small gifts as a s
After going through a difficult time, Sira sat beside her bedroom window, gazing out gratefully. She reflected on everything that had happened, especially how Damian had always been by her side, never leaving her alone even in her darkest moments.Sira's mind went back to the times when she felt the weakest, when pain and uncertainty seemed to be a part of her days. Through it all, Damian remained faithful, patiently caring for her, and giving her endless love. There were no complaints or signs of fatigue from Damian; only genuine care and love.One quiet night, when Damian was sitting at Sira's bedside, reading a book to her, Sira stopped Damian. In a soft voice, she said, "Damian, I am so grateful to have you. You have done more than I could have ever imagined. Without you, I don't know how I would have gotten through all this."Damian closed the book and looked at Sira with a loving gaze. "We promise to be together through thick and thin, Sira. I will never leave you, no matter wh
After her last check-up, the doctor recommended that Sira take a full month of bed rest to ensure optimal recovery from her lung infection. Sira felt anxious and frustrated at having to leave her daily routine and not being able to be as active as usual. However, she knew that rest was essential for her health.Damian, who was always faithful in supporting Sira, took the doctor's decision with full responsibility. He made sure that Sira received all the attention and care she needed. Damian organized his schedule well to care for Sira on a full-time basis, including preparing meals, helping with medications, and ensuring that Sira was comfortable during the recovery process.Every day, Damian starts the morning by preparing a healthy breakfast for Sira and bringing food to her bed. He also helps Sira with light physical therapy recommended by the doctor and ensures that Sira follows all medical instructions carefully.Damian also makes the home atmosphere more comfortable and suppo
Sira's still-recovering condition made Leo feel very sad and worried. Leo, who had begun to understand that his mother was not doing well, felt concerned and tried to provide the best support he could. One afternoon, Leo sat beside Sira who was lying on her bed. With a face full of concern, Leo took his mother's hand and said, "Mom, I really miss the times when we could play together and do all the fun things. I want you to get well soon so we can do it all again."Sira was deeply moved by Leo's words. She knew how hard it was for Leo to see his mother sick and feeling helpless. Sira raised her weak hand to gently touch Leo's head. "I miss those times too, dear. I'm sorry that I can't always be there for you like I used to."Sira's guilt deepened as she saw how depressed Leo felt. Sira felt very helpless and worried that her absence from daily activities was making Leo feel less attentive and affectionate. This feeling made her feel even more sad and dissatisfied with herself."Leo,
