2023-12-05 08:00:00Driving Olive home, Thomas couldn't stop smiling. Even though, well... he had to be magnanimous about Olive's outrageous behavior in his eyes. As long as he had known her, his eyes had never met a girl like Olive. All the women he knew, whether at the office or the headquarters, or those he accidentally met, whether in a mall, gym, or cafe, they all spoke softly. Calm. Their smiles were shy and seemed polite.
Thomas realized that he was handsome. He maintained his body posture with regular gym classes. He also always sharpened his intelligence with stacks of books on banking. Not to mention, he had to work extra hard for his wallet to always be thick and support his comfortable life in this foreign land. Maybe because of this, he often became the center of attention where he was sometimes favored. Sometimes, someone would take the initiative to get to know him.
One or two times talking on the phone or meeting in person, Thomas withdrew regularly. Most of the women were

No.To him, Olive was just a girl he could easily tease and prank. Somehow, in front of that blonde-haired girl, he was always tempted to tease her. Make her angry, blunt, and speak her mind. You know, when you were a kid, did someone like to tease you until you got angry? Well... Thomas seemed to be back in that phase. This time, Olive was the victim. Has there ever been another victim of Thomas? Clearly, there wasn't. Everyone closes to Thomas wanted a serious but flat relationship.For Thomas, marriage wasn't something flat. He didn't want to have a marriage like that."She's just my teasing material. There are no feelings or anything," Thomas said confidently. He then hurried into the bathroom. Showering to freshen up and hopefully have a peaceful sleep. His phone rang loudly, causing him to stop the flow of water from the shower. "Who's calling?"Suddenly, Olive's image danced in the back of his mind. Without further ado, Thomas quickly ended his sho

Olive took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. She gently patted her cheek to wake herself up. Her gaze was fixed on the building that had become a part of her life, where she worked due to the usual staff rotations, like Olive. Although she didn't like it very much, Olive tried to do her best. However, in reality, she always encountered obstacles.She tied her hair up high. Earlier in the morning, she deliberately tidied up her bangs and emphasized them. Although it might look childish, this time Olive intentionally emphasized her eye makeup. She thickened the black eyeliner that usually was just a thin line. Not to mention, she put on her beloved emerald-colored contact lenses. Feeling ready to leave, she checked her phone.Since half an hour ago, Thomas had messaged her saying he was on his way to pick her up. If her boss was driving, he could have already arrived, right? It was still early, not too much traffic, and sure enough, a message came in where Thomas announc

"Next time, wear a slightly thicker jacket if you're riding a motorcycle. It'll protect your body, Liv."Olive grumbles. "How was I supposed to know you were bringing a motorcycle? You didn't tell me, did you?""But it's a good thing I brought it, right? So you can use it. Thanks for that, Olive."If only it weren't an issue to smack Thomas on the head, she would have done it already! But Olive's hand would definitely hurt because Thomas is wearing a hard helmet. She's been complaining the whole time since she got on the bike. If it were a scooter, she could maintain a more comfortable position. But, oh God, ever since she got on this bike, she's been reciting prayers non-stop! Why does Thomas seem so deliberate?It's a glossy black Kawasaki Ninja 300 that Thomas is using today. It's making Olive uncomfortable because she has to be much closer to Thomas. She can't create any distance to put her bag between Thomas's back and hers. And on top of that, Thoma

Marta's been clenching her fists since earlier. Her face isn't as smiley as when she walked into the office. She exchanges greetings with a bunch of folks in the lobby. Most of the people she passes by say hi and wave to her. Her special treatment is all thanks to her position at the CBD Senayan Branch. Marta has every reason to be proud.Ever since she graduated from college, she didn't want to sit around doing nothing. She immediately started looking for a job that she thought matched her interests. So far, it was only at SAVEFUND CBD that seemed like a good fit, and she felt appreciated in terms of time, thought, energy, and effort. Resignation never crossed her mind. Her world at SAVEFUND CBD was just that enjoyable.That includes the staff she knows well, especially Thomas. But why hasn't he even glanced her way? Marta was certain that Thomas knew what she was getting at. Now, he's openly getting closer to Olive? Olivia Charlotte, the new kid in town? Oh my goodne

"You're starting to take over my job. You're my replacement here.""Really?" Olive is really puzzled now. Her request to be promoted to head teller was denied, so why is she allowed to replace Ayana? "I think there might be a mistake. Did you check with Mr. Thomas?"Ayana furrows her brows. "Because he told me that my evaluation is being repeated. There are still many shortcomings in his eyes. He's a perfectionist, right? So, I've been discussing this for the past few days," her eyes glance at Dela, who doesn't seem to care about what Olive is saying. "And his decision is to postpone it for three months.""I'll confirm with Mr. Thomas first, then."Olive nods. But after that, she also helps Yossie when the security guard opens the door. There are already two people waiting to be served, but luckily, they want to meet with customer service first."You look really pretty today," Yossie compliments while counting money manually.

Olive glanced at her phone unenthusiastically. It wasn't because of the flood of messages but rather the boring chat going on in the Gajah Mada Group (they were all excitedly discussing preparations for the upcoming gathering event, and it made Olive jealous. She felt like crying because she couldn't join in on the fun with them. Her communication with all the Gajah Mada staff was still very close, and even now, she hadn't been removed from their group. She could still have casual chats just like when she was there.)She placed her head on the table immediately. There was a sudden sadness that overcame her because their chat was so lively. She quickly shut her phone screen. This time, she chose to have lunch with Ayana alone. It was safer, with fewer antics, and Ayana didn't ask too many questions about what was happening. She asked the office girl to buy lunch and ate it in the pantry with Ayana.Meanwhile, Yossie was left alone at the counter. Lunchtime wasn't too cr

"What should I do?" Olive asked with a distressed expression. "And who shared that photo anyway?" She felt like crying, but she couldn't. Everyone already knew, and it was causing a commotion. How could it not?The perfectly angled shot, the right lighting, and impeccable timing when Thomas handed her a tissue during their breakfast at Sonatopas. It coincided perfectly with the moment when the chicken curry broth had splashed onto the corner of her lips. But it appeared as though Thomas was exceptionally attentive to Olive. His eyes were locked onto her.And this was the worst part of it all.Olive looked bashful in the picture due to Thomas's actions.Lord! It felt like not only Thomas needed to be submerged in the waters of Senayan Bay, but her too. Not because she wanted to be with Thomas forever! Oh my, please get rid of such thoughts! But Olive felt like she had no face left to meet other people, especially during the upcoming gathering.Once

As Olive walks along, she's not sure how she feels anymore. Well, it's not just about her feelings, but her expression says it all! She's beyond embarrassed! Oh my god! If there were a competition for the most absent-minded girl, Olive would win it hands down. Yeah, right! Olive ended up parking in the wrong spot. The one she went to was slot B2, lane C6, while her beautiful, beloved motorcycle was in slot B2, lane E9.So far away!!!Oh my god! This embarrassment is unbearable!She feels like hiding her face, but it's already too late; Thomas noticed."You should be more careful next time," says Thomas, patting Olive's head gently. "I told you, didn't I? You're not very careful. This is one example.""I'm just glad it didn't disappear. No need for scolding, sir," says Olive with a sulky tone. Whatever. She'd rather swallow her pride than argue and risk being laughed at. It's better to act a bit childish and, in return, get... attention?"Sin

Seira adjusts her glasses again. She wraps Olive to move away from the grave while whispering to pay attention to her steps. She doesn't want Olive to slip, even though the cemetery area is dry. There's nothing to worry about, but still, Seira doesn't want to take any risks.Before she truly leaves the grave of the woman who was once part of her life, Seira says, "I forgive you. Forgive me for not being the prideful daughter-in-law like Marissa, okay? I could only work at home and spend Tedy's money. Yes. That's just how Seira is. May you rest in peace."Olive can't stop staring at the large bowl of beef soup with broth. It contains carrot slices and sprinkles of fried onions and fresh slices of scallions. Olive inhales the aroma emanating from her ordered bowl several times."It's still hot, Bee," Thomas warns."Yeah, Sweetie." Olive grins satisfactorily. "The aroma is so delicious.""This beef soup place is Papa's favorite, Olive," Robert says wi

The gentle breeze brushing against Seira, she doesn't care at all. Her red hair has changed, much darker than the color she used before. But when she could enjoy the result in the mirror's reflection, it turns out to be truly suitable for her face. Koni said she looks much fresher.I don't know. She doesn't take the praise seriously or not. Not that she doesn't want to appreciate it, Koni always praises her every time she wears something new. So, according to her thinking, whatever Seira wears always fits her perfectly. Blessed with a face with a fairly sharp jawline, a pointed nose, and perfectly round eyes, sharply staring at her interlocutors, plus her beautifully split lips, making Seira even at her current age, as if time has stopped near her."I didn't expect you to come too."Since earlier, the man who met Seira right in front of this public cemetery gate didn't talk much. Not that he didn't want to, just greeting seems to be lost somewhere. All he could

"You always want more from me.""Come on." She nudges her husband's back gently. "I'm gonna make some smoothies. You want some, right?""Whatever you make, I'll eat it."Before Robert truly leaves the kitchen area, Seira grabs his arm. This makes Robert furrow his brow. "What's up? Earlier you wanted me to leave for work right away?"Seira's smile widens. She steps closer and when she's right in front of Robert, she gives him a quick peck as a form of encouragement. Unfortunately, Robert isn't content with just getting his lips wet."God, just be enough for his heart. Don't let anyone else break us apart. Make this man the only one who loves me with all his heart. It's only You I ask."***Olive grins widely. Like a lottery winner who just hit the jackpot today. Her eyes refuse to go anywhere else but to the printout of the ultrasound she just had. Even though she's still sitting on the edge of the examination bed. Listening, albeit n

This morning in Sydney, it's been pouring pretty heavily. The droplets drenching the smallest continent in the world have been hitting since last night. The weather forecast says it's better for folks to stay indoors. They're saying there might even be a pretty strong storm hitting. Seira's not bothered, though, about being inside this spacious unit.Two bedrooms and a kitchen area with plenty of food stocks keep her from getting too bored. She actually makes good use of it. She spends a lot of her time doing yoga. She doesn't need a private instructor. She declined because for her, she just needs privacy. Plus, there are plenty of tutorials she can watch on YouTube channels.Unless she's back in Senayan. Maybe the private issue with a special instructor is something she can consider. Honestly, Seira isn't too fluent in English. She can't just say yes or no! Oh God! Just remembering it makes her stomach suddenly cramp.That's why she chooses to be alone. She onl

Thomas's smile widens. "Patience, okay?" He then releases his hold on Olive's face. He chooses to tightly hold his wife's hand, intertwining their fingers, one of which has their wedding ring on."First, you're the most beautiful. This isn't a lie. Among all the women I've been close to, you're the winner." What Thomas says is the truth. Even when she's pregnant, although her belly hasn't grown too much yet, it seems like Olive has gained some weight. Proof is her chubby cheeks.But it doesn't matter. For Thomas, she's even sexier now. Plus, Olive's body is fuller and perfect for cuddling all night long. Even though sometimes he wonders, Thomas still goes along with whatever Olive eats within her control.Her mother says, "You're lucky, Thomas, Olive isn't picky about food. Thank God, Mrs. Giana, you know her, right? Lina? When she was pregnant with her second child, she couldn't eat at all. Had to be on IV. Weak all the time until she became skinny. Pitiful to

Olive pouts. There's really no remedy to coax a smile out of her, even a little. It feels like her heart is wrapped in annoyance and being overly emotional. Well... why not? The day she feared has arrived.Wait.A frightening day? Is there such a thing?For Olive, there are days when she feels like she no longer has Thomas's attention. It's like being in a long-distance relationship, not seeing each other for a long time. Especially not being able to see his face while he's at Senayan. Oh God! Sometimes Olive does tend to overdramatize things, but what can she do? She really feels that way.It's been two weeks since her mother's wedding. Almost every day, Seira keeps her updated, and Olive herself often gets absorbed in gossiping through the airwaves. Even though there are often signal problems, Olive doesn't mind. Proof is, she just enjoys spending a lot of time chatting with her mom, especially after work.She shares a lot with her mother, especi

"Hi, Wife," Robert greets when their eyes finally meet. Full of closeness and intimacy. Even their breaths seem to greet each other's faces."Hi, Husband," Seira replies just as warmly."Finally, today has arrived."Seira smiles tightly."Darling, last night's anger wasn't continued."The woman's brow furrows slightly."If it continues, I won't deny my words about smudging your lipstick.""Why so quiet?" Robert asks, slightly loosening their embrace. "Did I not hug you enough last night?""You're always talking nonsense, aren't you, Ro?" Seira says with a chuckle. "Come on, Johan must have been waiting since earlier, right?"Robert laughs. "When else will I get the chance to see Seira blush again?""Ro!"***Their journey to Sydney was accompanied by several family members, including Olive, whose in-laws also joined to see them off for a while."Don't forget to keep in touch, Mom," Olive says

Robert's departure back to Sydney couldn't be postponed. Besides having many projects that needed to be completed urgently, the man also prepared a special trip for himself and Seira."Nothing left behind, right?" Robert double-checked before they headed to the car Johan had prepared."Nah, I don't think so," Seira replied softly, but her eyes glanced again at the two large suitcases already at the apartment door. Her mind smoothly recalled the contents of the suitcases and what needed to be brought. "I'm pretty sure not," she said with a faint smile."Is Olive coming to see us off?""Yeah, she is," Seira laughed. "Wouldn't want to miss the moment waving goodbye to me, Ro."Robert just smiled thinly. His eyes focused on Seira standing by his side, showing a radiant face just for him. She looked even prettier in Robert's eyes, although he knew this dress she was wearing had been worn before. But it seemed different this

"Delicious or super delicious, Sir," Darius quickly responds. "Olive's taste buds don't know the word 'not delicious'. Everything is delicious to her. That's why inviting Olive to eat is the most fun. Not much comment. Before you know it, her plate is empty."Thomas chuckles. What Darius said is true, isn't it? It's rare to hear Olive comment on the taste of food that's already been ordered. Instead, she says it's a shame if it's not finished. A waste. It's a sin to waste food, she says. Better to go into her stomach.The problem is, no matter how much Olive eats, her body doesn't widen sideways. She remains slim and unchanged. When Thomas first met Olive, his wife rarely exercised. Thomas is confused, huh."Shut up!" Olive glares, not pleased. "Instead of worrying about my appetite, you better tell me what you've tried at the food booths over there. What's good?""If you like Zuppa Soup, I think it's good," Riana quickly says, pointing to the place on th
