The guard who had greeted her earlier smiled awkwardly at Seira. "I'm sorry," he said, slightly lowering his head. "Someone is looking for Miss Dena outside."
"I don't have any guests today," Seira said once again as she took a cigarette from its pack. This time, she had taken it out of her bag and placed it on the table, complete with the lighter now in her hand. Ready to light the tip of her cigarette.
"Um... but she's really insistent," the guard said.
Seira sighed. "You know the rules, right?"
The guard sighed deeply. "I know, Miss. It's just..."
Seira waved her hand gently, silently asking the guard to leave her room.
"The person looking for you is a little kid. They caused a scene in the lobby, saying they wanted to see their mom. Their name is Seira Denaswari. There's only one person with that name here, right?"

Olive frowned as she stared at her phone screen with a pout. Her mother hadn't responded to her call. Even

"This is so delicious," said the girl with messy and slightly damp hair. While chewing, her smile never faded. Her eyes, especially, were fixed on the woman in front of her without any fear at all. Even though the woman had folded her hands across her chest, looking at her disapprovingly, this time, the woman sighed deeply.She picked up the water bottle near her, took a sip to dispel the irritation that had been building up because of the little girl."I've told you to go home.""I haven't eaten yet, Mom," the girl replied with a mouthful. She tried to chew quickly and wiped her mouth, which might still have some sauce on it. "I told you, right?""You can eat at home, can't you?""No one's cooking at home." Once again, she took a big spoonful of rice. "I haven't eaten since morning. There's nothing delicious at school either."God! This kid is so talkative! Doesn't she know how dangerous it is not to get enough sugar intake? Seira wanted to

Olive entered the lobby area with a smile that refused to fade. Not because she was holding hands with Thomas. Come on! That was already a routine thing, right? But her steps were light because she was eager to gossip. She had some juicy material to share with Yossie this morning.One of the things that made her excited about work was not just the salary, but also the enjoyable atmosphere at the office. Especially when Dela wasn't around. Well, Dela's name was going to be the gossip of the day, so that's why Olive was so enthusiastic."Why are you so smiley all the time?" Thomas asked, curious. He had been asking the same question since earlier, but Olive never gave him a straight answer. Well, there was an answer, but it was too simple, which was typical of women."Nothing's wrong, okay?"Even though it had a million meanings, especially the part she didn't want him to know."Just don't ask now, Bae," she said, this time her smile was much wider t

Last night, he couldn't vent his anger because when returned, the person he wanted to confront was sound asleep. Curled up under her favorite Minnie Mouse patterned blanket. He couldn't bear to wake her. Besides, the girl had just returned from who knows where. He wanted to scold Parjo, the person he trusted to look after this child, but he was already fast asleep too.Maybe it was because she came back too late last night?Well, it doesn't matter now. What matters is that this morning, he woke up much earlier than both Naina and Parjo. Just look at the two of them! Nathaniel wasn't a patient person when it came to dealing with anger, especially when it came to Naina skipping school for three days.Oh my, Lord! Naina was about to graduate from elementary school. Why would she act up like this? That's not to mention the reports about her declining grades. Nathan felt like he was about to lose his mind dealing with a child like this!Wait! Naina..."

"No need to pout, Liv," Seira laughed. "It's not like you. Usually, you go straight to Thomas when you get to work."The teased response was just a smile. Olive's behavior since returning to her mother's house had been giving Thomas a headache. He would rather analyze a lot of application data and what was causing a new customer's three-month search to stall.Just imagine, since yesterday afternoon when her workday ended, Olive had called him several times. She said, "Come on, Thomas, let's go home. I can't wait to see Mommy."Lord! Even though the distance from Senayan to Gajah Mada took over an hour plus an additional dozen minutes due to traffic, it was still within Senayan! Goodness! His wife.Oh, that wasn't the end of it. She kept talking about what she needed to buy for her mother along the way."How long has it been since you met Mommy, Bee?" Thomas couldn't help it either. He had been holding back his laughter since earlier. Finally, he co

Seira sighed repeatedly. Her hand gestured sharply towards the girl sitting in front of her. She had to admit the girl looked much paler than last night. Well, Seira could guess that she would fall sick eventually. When she left, the girl was already half-soaked. Not to mention, she was furious after being kicked out. So, her clothes were even wetter now."I don't want to take medicine. Just hug me, Mom," the girl pleaded while reaching out her hand. "Plus, I haven't had breakfast yet. My head hurts so much I've been trying to get up since earlier."Seira sighed."Don't you want to hug me, Mom?""I'm not your mom," Seira replied quickly. But seeing the thin hand still reaching out to her, and Naina's pleading eyes, Seira gave in. She let out a heavy breath that made her move closer. She sat on the edge of the girl's big bed.Naina was overjoyed!Although her headache had left her powerless, seeing Seira here and feeling the warm hand was all

One thing Thomas really liked was looking at Olive's face in the morning. It felt like a dose of dopamine that made him addicted. Well... what could he do? His wife was a sight to behold, especially without a hint of makeup."What time is it, Bae?" he asked, stretching lazily. "Why do you always wake up earlier than me?"Thomas didn't answer except with a kiss. "Morning, my fairy girl.""Don't try to be so romantic in the morning," Olive pouted."Why not?" Thomas chuckled while tidying up Olive's hair. "What's it for?""Why are you staring at me like that?" Thomas was confused. Olive had a lot of weird and quirky vocabulary. Where did she learn that stuff? He wanted to laugh but was curious about her meaning."After staring at me like that, my faith gets weaker," Olive complained. "I have to make you coffee, prepare breakfast, and make sure I don't leave the house in a mess while we're going out all day. You know how it feels when I have to

Olive fell silent."Why are you quiet, Bee? What's up?" Thomas asked, his eyes filled with confusion.She had been talking at length about what she wanted to convey, and now it seemed to be postponed? Although it was delayed due to something enjoyable, she couldn't help but wonder if her words warranted a response of silence.Did it sound strange?Oh, not at all. Thomas had explained everything very well."Just thinking," Olive replied softly. She seemed to be gently stroking her chin. The road ahead was clear of any traffic. Taking the outer city toll road was a good option. Thomas was driving carefully; he was not a reckless driver, which relieved Olive.Speaking of getting carried away, Olive had been feeling quite helpless this morning.Her gentle demeanor, her touch that made her feel like she was floating up to the seventh heaven, and even when it got a little wild, Olive didn't mind at all. She was indulged and sa

Thomas looked at Olive intently. The road was clear, the car's speed stable, and he felt it wouldn't be a problem to occasionally glance at Olive. As long as he could control his vehicle, right?"I've been in your position before, Bee," Thomas said with a smile. "I really started from the bottom and finally got to where I am now, and it wasn't easy. Just like you who worked hard to prove that you have the capacity to be the Head Teller. If I dimmed that by asking you to resign, I'd be selfish.""Why is that?" Olive asked, her brows furrowing. "I mean, according to what I know, a wife should obey what her husband says.""That's true. It's the way it should be. Moreover, when you think about it, even if you don't work at all, I can fulfill any request you have, as long as I'm capable. Making your wife happy also has great rewards, you know."Olive smiled faintly."Especially the kind of happiness we had this morning."Olive's eye
