The back terrace of Grandma Sofi's house was bathed in the warmth of the morning sun, signaling the beginning of a beautiful day. The fresh air filled the atmosphere, inviting anyone who felt it to breathe in the natural freshness. After a night full of joy celebrating Lisa's birthday, it was time for Grandma Sofi to rest. However, as she woke up on that bright morning, she felt energized and happy. Around her, the scent of delicious breakfast began to waft, tempting the appetite.Grandma Sofi sat on the back terrace, gazing at the beautiful flower garden surrounding her, a smile etched on her face. She felt grateful to have such a warm and loving family like her daughter, Lisa, and son-in-law, Devan, along with her two grandchildren, Dylan and Aurora, who made her life so meaningful.As Lisa and Devan appeared carrying a breakfast tray, the smile on Grandma Sofi's face widened. They placed the breakfast tray on the table in front of Grandma Sofi and sat beside her with cheerful smile
Sandra continued to gently kiss Grandma Sofi's forehead, tears flowing endlessly. She felt so devastated by the loss of Grandma Sofi, a person she loved so much and meant so much to her. Beside her, Remos stood with sincerity, trying to provide support to his grieving wife."My love, I know how difficult it is for you to lose Grandma," Remos said softly, embracing Sandra tightly. "But we must be strong and accept the fate we are facing now. Grandma is in a better place now, without pain or suffering."Sandra took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. "I know, Remos. But it feels so hard to let go of someone we love so much."Remos gently rubbed Sandra's back. "I feel it too, Darling. But let's remember all the beautiful memories with Grandma Sofi, and let the love and warmth she shared throughout her life continue to strengthen us in facing these difficult times."Sandra gazed at Grandma Sofi's face with love and respect, then she kissed her forehead gently once again. "Farewell, Gra
Aurora happily took the uniform. "Thank you, Mom," she said, running to the bathroom to get ready.Meanwhile, Lisa helped Dylan put on his school uniform, making sure everything looked neat and perfect."You look handsome, sweetheart," Lisa said lovingly, adjusting Dylan's red tie.Dylan smiled proudly. "Thank you, Mom. Let's hurry, I can't wait to go to school!"After the whole family was ready in their outfits, they gathered back in the living room to wish each other well for the new day. They exchanged hugs and kisses, making sure to give each other support and love before starting their day."May your day be filled with happiness and success," Lisa said softly.Devan nodded. "Same to you, honey. Don't forget to always remember what grandma Sofi taught us about spirit and courage."Dylan and Aurora nodded in agreement. "We won't forget, Dad," they said together.With that, they parted ways to start their day with the same spirit and happiness as taught by grandma Sofi. Although gra
"Come on!"Devan pleaded while caressing Lisa's cheek.Lisa stepped back in fear."I'm sorry, sir. I can't. I really can't! I have to leave right now!" Lisa said, half-pleading, as she pushed away Devan's hand that was caressing her cheek.The 21-year-old woman pleaded with a trembling body out of fear.She resisted as Devan pushed her onto the bed, but her strength couldn't match Devan's robust and slightly muscular physique.Devan pressed Lisa's hands onto the bed, and his face continued to approach hers, forcing Lisa to keep moving to avoid any contact with Devan's face."Just a moment, I beg you! I can't take it anymore. Later, I'll reward you with a year's worth of your salary at this hotel," Devan said, pulling Lisa's hand and embracing her tightly."I can't, sir! Please let me go!" Lisa replied, pushing Devan's body to break free from his embrace."I really desire it!" Devan growled in Lisa's ear."Let me go, you bastard!" Lisa screamed, hitting Devan's chest. Lisa's legs were n
The sound of Devan's room bell rang repeatedly. Devan, still half-asleep, opened his eyes with difficulty, his head throbbing slightly. He approached the door and peered out to make sure who was coming."Robi!" exclaimed Devan in surprise.Devan glanced at the wall clock; it was already 7 in the morning."No way! Robi can't know that last night I slept with someone, and it was a hotel servant!" Devan panicked.Devan quickly cleaned and tidied up his bed, noticing fresh bloodstains on the white sheets."Is the woman still a virgin?" mumbled Devan, speaking to himself.Realizing that the room bell kept ringing, indicating Robi was still calling him, Devan couldn't think of anything else. He quickly covered the stain with a blanket, put on his sleepwear, and went to open the door."Huaaa... what's going on?" Devan asked, yawning at Robi. Robi waved his hands in front of his face to keep the air from Devan's mouth away from his nose.Robi looked around inside Devan's room, making Devan wor
A day before the incident happened.On a luxurious sailboat, a 28-year-old man in a black long-sleeved shirt stood gallantly, gazing straight ahead after just finishing a call with his girlfriend."What's up?" asked a man around the same age, patting his shoulder."Nothing, just finished talking to Eca," he replied with a smile on his lips."Already missing her after a short while, but I understand. It's your first voyage for work, so you two aren't used to being apart.""Yeah, she asked me to come back quickly.""Don't worry; we'll definitely go back. You're getting married in a month, so we'll surely return before the wedding day," said Devan's cousin.Devan just smiled in response to his cousin's banter. "We'll soon make a stop at Telu Island; it's known for its delicious cuisine. I plan to take you to taste the food there soon. Are you in?""Of course, you're more experienced than me. I have a lot to learn from you about managing the ship business," Devan said.Robi smiled with a
It's been almost an hour, and Devan is still at the bar, talking to Eca on the phone.Several attractive women come to flirt with Devan, but they are immediately chased away by Robi."Don't bother him; his girlfriend is prettier than all of you combined. He just wants to relax here," Robi says to them, making the women leave in annoyance.Devan laughs at how Robi dismisses the mischievous women. Devan has finished three glasses of wine, and he starts to yawn."Love, I think I should head home now; I'm getting sleepy," Devan says to Eca."Yeah, go ahead, take Robi with you," Eca replies."No need, I'll go alone; you keep me company on the phone. Robi seems to be discussing something serious.""Alright then, be careful on the way, my love.""Sure thing, and don't hang up, I still want your company," Devan requests, smiling sweetly at Eca."Okay, my love."Devan approaches Robi, who is deep in conversation with his friends, and asks for permission to leave earlier."Rob, I'm heading home
The day has turned dark, and Devan still hasn't met Lisa, resigning himself to going home that night.Before leaving, Devan leaves his phone number on a paper on the table, still hoping to be contacted by Lisa. After all, he hasn't given her any money yet.Devan is already on the ship, choosing to stand on the top deck. His eyes keep staring towards the hotel, as if something is left there, but he doesn't know what.On the dock, Moni and Lisa are enjoying the cool night breeze, gazing at the luxurious ship in front of them. Lisa has to take a break from work because she still feels pain in her groin."Mon, you know, besides working at the hotel, I really want to work on that ship. How does it feel to enter such a luxurious ship?" Lisa asks while sipping her coffee."I don't know. I never imagined going there. The passengers inside are not middle class like us, but elite class. Look, there's no one dressed as simple as us; they're all in luxurious attire," Moni replies."Looks like you
