When break time arrived, noisy sounds could be heard coming from Citra's desk, making Ethan, who had already finished his work and was just pretending to be busy on his computer, glance at the girl out of the corner of his eye.He could see how the woman was making hurried movements, ready to go somewhere.Without saying anything else, after fiddling with her phone, Citra quickly slung her bag over her shoulder and rushed out of the room.Ethan, who could only watch the woman's departure in silence, suddenly leaned back in his chair.Rubbing his face roughly, the man then ran his fingers through his hair aggressively."What are you doing, Ethan?! Your behavior is only creating distance between you and that woman," Ethan muttered, cursing his foolishness.A long sigh was clearly heard escaping the man's mouth. He couldn't think clearly after realizing how Citra seemed to prioritize her reputation over Ethan's feelings."What's going on in your head, Ethan? Of course she won't think abo

Citra and Ethan walked out of sync. The man seemed to have already harbored great anger towards Citra.He walked ahead, letting Citra follow behind him.As she walked, Citra could only remain silent, believing that the truth would surely be revealed there later.Citra would never do such a lowly thing. Besides, why would she steal evidence that she herself would gain nothing from?Ethan had also helped Citra a lot so far, so automatically the woman wouldn't have the heart to do such an inappropriate thing."Please play the CCTV footage starting from 3 days ago, sir."Upon arriving in the CCTV control room, Ethan immediately told the man there to play the CCTV footage.This was because Ethan had last checked the contents of his safe and still found the evidence exactly 3 days ago."Yes, sir," the man replied obediently.He then extended his hand, moving the mouse to play each footage there.Nothing happened. One day passed, as did the second day.Until precisely, when the second day wa

A long sigh escaped Citra's mouth.In her current state of uncertainty, she continued driving her car aimlessly, wherever it could go.She didn't know where to go now. Her mind felt blank, all the feelings in her heart turning cold and untouchable again, just like before.Citra tried to remember the last time she felt so happy, celebrating that happiness until it ultimately ended up destroying her.The corner of her lips curved into a bitter smile.Citra closed her eyes, taking a deep breath to try and control her unstable emotions."Argh! Why did everything have to turn out like this?! Why do you keep torturing me with all this pain?! Why does God always punish me?! What great sin have I committed for you to do all this to my life, God?!"Her thoughts spiraling out of control, Citra began to question the fate God had created for her.The happiness that people always said would come to those who remember God and are grateful for His trials was nowhere to be felt by Citra right now.Sh

Citra looked uncomfortable as the bright sunlight now pierced sharply into her eyes.She tried to avert her gaze, looking for a place where she wouldn't face the sun directly.However, suddenly someone pulled open the curtains covering the bedroom window, letting the bright light flood into her room."Ah! Can't you see I've been trying to avoid it? Come on, close those curtains again!" Citra ordered, trying to cover her face with the pillow and bolster there.A man's voice clicked his tongue, making Citra try to fight against the bright light."It's not good to keep wallowing in your sadness. Come on, let's go! We're going jogging together this morning," suggested the man, who was none other than Nike.He tried to wake the woman up. Her dark under-eye circles were clearly visible, indicating she hadn't slept since last night.She had just been crying, feeling sad about what had happened in her life."No. I don't want to go anywhere this morning. I just want to live in peace. You go an

Citra stretched all the muscles in her legs, which felt tight because she hadn't gone jogging like this in a long time."Weak. Just from that, you're already giving up," said Nike as he handed a bottle of water to the woman.Ignoring the man's words, Citra rolled her eyes lazily, choosing to gulp down the water until it was almost gone."I haven't done a morning routine like this in a long time. It's natural that I get tired faster than you," Citra replied sarcastically.The man could only laugh, making fun of the woman."Come on! Let's go back home," said Nike, inviting the woman to leave.Citra, who was actually still feeling tired but didn't want to be considered weak again by the man, then strengthened herself to stand up straight and walk away with him."A woman must be strong, don't be weak and easily mistreated by others," said Nike during their morning run.Citra could only focus on the road ahead, feeling like she wanted to faint right then and there."Want to order an online
