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.

(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. Her position as an HRD Manager at a labor supply company is notable enough to be talked about in their hometown.Risa is somewhat surprised by Lily's determination to move to Jakarta, but it seems like a good choic

Lily sits trying to appear calm. There's an underlying anxiety, but she tries to push it away with the small smile she has. In front of her sits a man wearing a faded green Polo shirt, seen flipping through files she recognizes as her own data."Don't you care about your degree?" the man asks, chin resting slightly on his hand. The file is now back on the table.One of the many things that makes Lily unsure how to respond."What's your work experience?"This part, especially, makes Lily quite nervous."None.""No experience, but a bachelor's degree," James murmurs softly, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. "What makes you want to work like this? I mean, as a babysitter? Oh, sorry. I mean... as a caregiver.""I need a job," Lily responds bluntly.She clearly hears her interlocutor sigh deeply. "Need, huh?"Even though she only sees it from the corner of her eye, Lily is sure with a very high level of certainty that the man's

"Miss Lily, where's my bag?" Cheryl asks.Lily takes a deep breath."Miss Lily, oh... don't take too long. I need my bag. I haven't even put on my shoes yet. I'll be late!!"Lily can do nothing but hasten her steps up the stairs to Cheryl's room. "Hold on, I'll get it."As soon as she finds the pink bag with the Unicorn motif, Lily grabs it. Today is Cheryl's first day back to school after the semester break. She checks her employer's child's readiness once more. Last night she reminded and helped Cheryl pack her notebooks and school supplies. Feeling it's enough, Lily quickly heads downstairs rather than having to listen to the child scream again."Which shoes?" Lily asks, holding the pink bag."The black ones are in the corner.""Hey, Cheryl... why didn't you take and put on your shoes yourself?" Anna sighs in frustration. Her granddaughter is already on the edge of being too spoiled."I want to have breakfast, Grandma. I won

Lily lets out a slow breath. Right now, she's stepping out of that rather large room. She glances at the silver clock that faithfully accompanies her; Cheryl will be out of class soon. She has to go back to the waiting room that she's been visiting every day. She walks a bit faster down the stairs to get there soon. When she arrives at the waiting room, many parents are already waiting for their sons and daughters to return. Most of them seem similar. Waiting for their employer's child to come home from school. A small part of Lily knows them. Lily has been escorting and waiting for Cheryl at school for two weeks now. Actually, the girl protested a lot to her grandmother. She said the girl was already grown up. She didn't need a caregiver to accompany her to school. However, Anna responded to the protest with a smile. She completely ignored her granddaughter's wish to just be escorted and picked up without being supervised like Lily is doing now."Miss Li

"Cheryl, don't rush your breakfast, honey," Anna gently strokes the top of her granddaughter's head.The little girl sits a bit tense, but tries to act normal. She knows there will be many questions from Grandma and Dad. That's why she hurriedly eats her sweet cereal soup. Occasionally, her eyes sneak a glance towards her caregiver with annoyance. But it seems like the caregiver is busy preparing food at the kitchen table."Yesterday, Miss Rina told Grandma about what happened at school.""Oh," Cheryl responds without daring to look at Grandma. Just as she feared. She's sure she'll get a lot of lectures later. Just as usual."What were you doing at school, Princess?""Anka snatched my pencil, Dad." Cheryl starts to slow down her chewing on her cereal."And then?" James asks without taking his eyes off his daughter. This morning, the little figure who is the source of his energy, looks very beautiful with her double braids in her hair.

The night breeze makes Lily button up her cardigan to the top. She hugs herself but doesn't want to move from where she's standing. Her eyes gaze up, reluctant to close, choosing instead to indulge in the spread of stars above. The moon is no longer shy to show itself.Here, where she is now, is the spot Sari usually uses to air out the clothes. Sari, one of the housemaids here, just like herself and Nina. While Nina is assigned to cleanliness duties in this big house, it's a different story for Sari. The woman, quieter than Nina, is entrusted with the responsibility of cooking, washing, and ironing all the residents' clothes in this house.All her tasks are done. From giving her employer verbal and written reports, ensuring Cheryl drinks her milk before bed, to leaving the already asleep child, checking Cheryl's textbooks and homework again, and providing her uniform so her young miss doesn't scramble to find it in the morning.There's a long wooden bench in th

Every time Lily enters the room, which is now becoming familiar in her life, there's always one large frame that catches her attention. The frame fills almost half of the right wall intentionally unobstructed by tall shelves. The painted smile is so charming, paired with those truly beautiful eyes. Lily admitted it the first time they locked eyes. This child was gifted with something that amazed and envied many people at the same time.She's already sitting in front of the man who's now wearing his bedtime pajamas. He's seriously reading the report she handed him a few minutes ago. Lily occasionally holds her breath, still trying to cover up her nervousness, afraid something might have been missed in her report."Is Cheryl giving you trouble, Miss?"Lily furrows her brow, puzzled by her employer's question. "Not at all, Sir." That's the safest way for Lily."Tell me about Cheryl at school for the past three days."Lily's eyebrows knit even tighter.
