"Did you find her?" asked Zanara, with an icy gaze fixed on Bryan from the moment he arrived. Bryan had been checking Zanara's apartment since they came, and Zanara didn't prevent her brother-in-law from continuing to check with a skeptical look because she couldn't be of any help. She might know where Shienna was, but to tell this man it wouldn't be that easy. Shienna must have a good reason for avoiding and leaving a man like Bryan. Bryan sat down, tired of searching and finding no sign of his wife at his twin sister's apartment. He almost gave up hope, but his mind instantly returned to their night together. It was beautiful, and he didn't want to bury that moment, even though Shienna might want it to be. Bryan would never let Shienna go. He would bring her back, no matter what. "Wait, a sec. I'll make you a cup of tea." "No need. Thank you. I'd better go and continue my search," Bryan replied passively. "Where are you going to look for her? Shienna is a stubborn girl. She mus
Reading the letter Shienna had left for him made Bryan's chest tighten. He was a strong and resilient man, and he would always be that way because his mother still needed him. However, the pain he felt this time was much heavier.Where should he turn to share his pain this time?Bryan felt unable to get through the day and hopeless, looking for Shienna and hoping for her love. Maybe Edward was right; it was time to give up and forget all his dreams about Shienna that never materialized as expected.Bryan still clutched the paper to his chest, lost in sobs and the pain that resided within him.He was broken...He was falling into pieces this time... However, once again, he had to manage to get up and live with the bitterness that continued to decorate his life.There would never be a sweet love life. He should have known that from the moment he learned of his father's affair with Amara, the woman he believed would be the love of his life and make him forget Shienna.Shienna might have
"Hey, Jo!" greeted Shienna, and immediately, the man she called Jo grabbed her into his arms. They hugged for a while until they realized that Jennifer was watching them."Ahem! I knew that you guys missed each other. Uhm, I mean, maybe Jo misses you more, Shie. He keeps asking how you are since you disappeared."Shienna just smiled at Jennifer's words and looked at Jonathan, whose cheeks were flushed like plums."It's only natural that I worry about you, Shie. You're usually the life of the party. Since our mom and dad moved out and you disappeared, the house has been quiet," Jonathan replied."You prefer a private life in your apartment, where beautiful women warm your bed every night, which is indeed lonely, correct? Hmmph!" Jennifer struggled because Jonathan was now smothering her mouth as she continued to talk. Shienna, meanwhile, was watching the twin's cohesiveness with a smile on her face.She had missed this kind of atmosphere, and three months had been long enough for her t
"Shie? What are you doing here?" The man asked with a gesture that looked awkward and like someone who had been caught committing a crime. He looked around as if confirming who Shienna had come with this time."Damn it! Do you work at this place, Jo?" Shienna asked back awkwardly."Uhm, yes, that is... Are you a new employee who will be applying as a teacher?""Yes. I think so. However, I don't have the detailed information, and I'm afraid I've come here by mistake.""Oh, of course not. We are indeed looking for teachers to fill the cello and piano classes. But you must know that cello masters are quite rare.""You said 'we'?""Yes, I mean, this school needs a cello and piano teacher. Come, I'll introduce you to the owner of D'Maestro." Jonathan guided Shienna to come with him and she met a man who looked confused when Jonathan introduced Shienna to him. "This is Damien, the owner of D'Maestro, and he will explain all the information you need.""Shouldn't you be?" asked Damien. "Didn'
Months had passed without success, making Bryan reluctant to get out of bed today. The whole world seems to be nothing but meaningless debris to him since Shienna's departure. Nothing excites him like it used to.When Shienna broke up with him, he could still get up and try to be a real man because he hoped to meet Shienna again, but when she left him for the second time, Bryan no longer had that faith.He, staring at the ceiling, finally turned on the television and found the news that made his memory turn back to Shienna, who had been the center of his life.'The latest news about Shienna, the Diva. Shienna has returned to her father's surname after separating from billionaire Bryan Sanders. She also decided not to return to the entertainment world that had made her name. However, no one knows where she is, as she prefers to be in a place without painful memories.'"What the fuck is that? No one can provide information on Shienna's whereabouts. Are they stupid? All this time, they ea
Shienna is still in her room, thinking about what she saw on television. Bryan had said such sweet things, making her resolve to bury everything about him waver. Since last night, even until the sun came up, Shienna was still awake and felt her head start to feel dizzy. However, closing her eyes and forgetting everything wasn't that easy. She was already planning to find a place to live after selling her old house. She couldn't delay, even though Jennifer didn't mind her being in the house, but Shienna felt uncomfortable constantly, inconveniencing her best friend. Shienna picked up her cell phone and dialed a number that immediately got an answer from the other side. "Uhm, Jo, I'm sorry to bother you. Could you tell Damien that I'm taking today off? I have some things to take care of," Shienna said to the man on the other line, who was listening with only half a consciousness. "Oh, you're leaving? Then I'll accompany you," Jonathan replied. "No, it's OK. I don't mean to refuse y
"Bryan, stop! You're going to get sick if you keep doing this!" Edward interrupted as Bryan was about to down the drink in his glass. He couldn't count how many glasses Bryan had drunk since he arrived at the club. But Bryan didn't care. None of Edward's words even entered his ears."Don't stop me, Ed. I'm enjoying life and celebrating God's gift to me.""What do you mean? You're sick, Bryan. You must remember that. Do you want to die on purpose, huh?!"Bryan stopped the laughter that had been going on. He was laughing at his misfortune that, after losing his true love, he was about to lose his life. So what else was he to do but celebrate his misfortune?"He should have taken my life back then. Right?" he reflected.Edward was annoyed at Bryan's unchanging attitude. Bryan would let himself fall to the ground before finally waking up and getting up. But most of the time, he had already lost time by then. And this time, Edward wasn't going to let it happen again.There were many things
Bryan opened his eyes slowly, and he felt his head throbbing and pounding. He didn't immediately leave bed but remembered what happened last night. He looked at his body, which wasn't wearing a single piece of clothing, and remembered that he and Shienna had spent a night of love and passion, and it was time for Bryan to make sure he wasn't dreaming last night.Strangely enough, Bryan's feelings right now are unhappy. It's as if today he will never find Shienna again, who last night allowed him to release a deep longing that he could never express because he never managed to see her.Slowly and hesitantly, Bryan turned his head to make sure their night was the real deal, but instead, he found another kind of madness and drama that he couldn't believe.It's not Shienna lying next to him naked, but another woman—a woman he never expected to come and appear in front of him, especially in this way."Shit! What are you doing here, Amara?" Bryan rolled off the bed and rushed to put on all hi
