The 'we'll talk tomorrow' part came after five long months. 
The following morning when Kai went back home to get some sleep and put some sense into his wife he was shocked at not finding her in their home. He made a bee-line for the fridge i.e., after wandering around the whole house- where he found her note as usual. 
'Mom called after you left. Papa had a stroke. Don't wait up for me. There is food in the fridge, get some sleep and have your breakfast. I might be back around noon.'
He couldn't sit still after that note but he couldn't reach his wife who had forgotten her phone at home. As a last attempt he tried calling his mother-in-law and luckily she answered on the last ring. 
Kai: Mom, I just found Min-Soe's note. Where are you all at now? How is Papa?
Cerise: (tiredly) Kai, we are at City Hospital. Min-Soe has gone out to bring some medicines. I'll tell her you called. Min-Soe's Papa is stable now.
Kai: yes, mom I'll be there in an hour.
After that, he didn't bother freshening up and made a straight bee-line for the hospital.
After that incident, the couple became busy with their careers. Kai had to tour different cities around the world with his group and hold shows there- the result of the new album and the need of his fans. On the other hand, Min-Soe became busy with extending her father's business in foreign countries. They both came back home just for a bath and change of clothes. Kai had late-night concert rehearsals while Min-Soe had long hours of gruelling meetings with people she couldn't remember. They were living like two room-mates in the huge house.
The proof of each other's existence was Kai's video notes and her handwritten notes. The situation became like as it was at the start of their married life. 
He sent her video notes and messages, telling her about where he was, what everyone was doing and how much he was missing her. He made the others record messages for her too. Sometimes the guy's didn't hold back and sent their own recorded videos to her involving Kai who was caught off guard by their rapid-fire at him involving her or all of them just being a crazy bunch. 
Min-Soe too didn't hold back and sent pictures of her having a great time of her own during her free hours in the different cities she was visiting as a part of her business expansion tour. To top it off, she also left him her handwritten notes on their fridge door. Which mostly included scolding's from her when he didn't take good care of himself and also telling him how much she loved him. 
The notes were a great source of hope for Kai who was coming back to an empty home week after week. Some days he found piles of notes stuck to the fridge. Usually filled with all the chores he was supposed to carry around the house while she was gone. 
The five months of their separation came to an end finally and one fine night the couple sat on their porch in silence just enjoying the noise of the night. The stars shone brightly in the dimly lit area which made their moment much more meaningful.
Kai: (breaking the silence) do you remember that one of our talks is pending?
Mel: (leaning her head on his shoulder) um- so how did you find out about my previous CEO?
Kai: (glaring in the distance) the hosts on the show I was shooting there were loudmouths. Also, we did some research.
Mel: (looking up in his eyes) you want to say something?
Kai: Min-Soe I was really angry with you back then. I couldn't understand why you didn't tell me such a big thing.
Mel: (casting down her eyes) at first I thought that it would die down but it just went on becoming worse. (Shuddering at the thought) I considered telling you but then I couldn't understand how you might react so I kept quiet.
Kai: (softly) don't you trust me?
Mel: (looking in his eyes) I do trust you.
Kai: (pecking her knuckles) sometimes you do make me feel like an outsider you know? 
Mel: (bowing her head down) L-Love I-
Kai: (placing a finger on her lip to silence her) I know baby, you want your space in certain situations even I do, the feeling is mutual but I am your husband too. You need to understand that I worry for you. It's my duty to worry about you. I am not saying that you should tell me everything but I do feel like I have the right to know if something is bothering you. I would appreciate it if you tell me rather than I hear about it from others.
Mel: (nodding in understanding) I understand Love, I'll try not to hold back. It won't be easy and I may slip up sometimes but you have to know that old habits die hard.
Kai: (pulling her closer) I know it and I am also aware that our jobs don't make it easy for us either but we have promised each other that we will work hard for our relationship and for our love. For that promise to be fulfilled I want you to be with me by my side not just as my support system but also as my everything. We have promised each other that we'll be for each other in sickness and in health; it won't be fair if only you get to keep your end of the promise.
Mel: (slightly smiling) no Love, it won't happen again. I promise. 
Kai: (kissing her forehead) I hope so. (Picking her up bridal style) let's get you in bed now.
***
On their anniversary's eve, the couple had luckily got another free night in between their busy schedules. Kai sat on a stool playing his piano checking out different melodies which were making way into his mind one after another. Mel sat beside him absently going through her phone looking for one or another update. 
It had been a month ago when they had made it public, revealing that they were dating- rather than coming out with the huge bomb of being already married. 
Kai had posted a few pictures of both of them in his private social account to share them with his closest friends and family but someone had hacked his private account and leaked those pictures for the whole world to look at. It sure did cause a huge uproar as many hearts were broken but many even admonished the hacker for being a big-nosed prick for doing something shameless as putting his long nose into someone's private life. 
The couple had been quiet in the beginning but once Kai's president approved for them to come out as couples who were dating they had agreed and together released an official statement to confirm what the general public already knew. Their relationship got mixed reviews but they could care less about it. They were partly relieved about the fact that the news had seen the light of the day. Truth be told keeping the whole thing a secret was becoming tiring for both of them. 
Mel: Love, I'll have to leave tomorrow night for Shanghai.
Kai: (absently) hmm-
Mel looked up at him frowning. She could clearly tell that he hadn't heard a word of what she had said. He just sat there humming to himself and pressing random keys on the piano- well random for her. 
Kai: (to himself) I think this melody sounds good.
Mel couldn't take it anymore and bit him hard on the shoulder. He was shocked by the pain that rushed through his 'moments ago perfect arm' and blinked in surprise to see Mel biting him hard. A random scream tore through his lips a beat later. 
Mel stopped biting him and met his angry eyes calmly, she patted him once on the shoulder which she had been treating like a loaf of bread not moments ago and got up from the bench to head back to the kitchen. Too bad for her, the luck wasn't on her side because Kai recovered quickly enough to grab her retreating arm and pulled her back to the place she had vacated. 
Kai: (glowering) What was that for?
Mel: (flushing red at the proximity) you were ignoring me.
Kai: (licking his lips) well, you have my complete attention now.
Saying so he crashed his lips onto hers before the heated kiss turned to something much more intense and fiery. 
Thus, the couple celebrated their first new year's eve in each other's arms before the imminent separation coming towards them the very next night.
Next night, Kai came to see off his wife at the airport. He was holding her hand tightly not ready to let go of her just yet. 
Mel: This is the first time you've come to see me off, Love.
Kai: This does remind me, our honeymoon is still due.
Mel: (grinning up at him) I had completely forgotten about it.
Kai: believe me even I had. My tours will end next month baby, will you be free then?
Mel: (nodding) yes. This will be my last trip anywhere for some time.
Kai: (groaning) it's really hard when your wife is one of the young leading tycoons in the country. 
Mel: (swatting his shoulder gently) I had to find a way to keep myself occupied when I've got a world star for husband. So where will you be taking me?
Kai: (pecking her forehead) I have several destinations in my mind. We'll pick one when you return.
Mel: (hearing the last call for boarding and sighing) I should probably leave.
Kai: hmm-
Mel: (feeling low) why is it hard this time? You shouldn't come to see me off in future. It's your fault.
Kai: (staring deeply into her eyes) ok.
Mel: I've left notes for you, don't forget to water the plants and take care of my home and my husband-
Kai wouldn't have it if she started to talk about plants at such a crucial moment. He silenced her ranting by pulling her closer and gently kissing her forehead. 
Kai: (letting her go) I'll be waiting for you. Come back soon.
Mel nodded mutely but a small smile on her lips made a huge difference, it worked like a charm and lifted the melancholic air around them into the one filled with waiting and love for each other. She made sure to turn around and wave goodbye at him still beaming while Kai stood looking at her retreating back until she vanished from his sight.
Kai spent his days- i.e., a week- reminiscing about the memories they had made together. 
The first was about their time spent together working on projects in their middle school. He had been intrigued about her back then when she didn't even spare a second glance in his direction while the whole school swooned at just his single smirk. 
The girls around him had labelled her to be an egoistic bitch but he knew better than to believe others words. He had often found opportunities to observe her outside the school environment. She hadn't seemed like a stuck up to him in her natural environment. 
Then the day came when the teachers announced them to be the partners for an upcoming project. The whole class population had groaned at the most non-interactive pair of the class. He still remembered how she had taken a deep breath whilst giving herself a pep-talk and found the courage within to greet him for the first time. It was then that he knew she was different from others. When their project was completed and they had developed a pretty strong friendship Mel had broken the news of her moving out of the country. She hadn't told him for how long as she too had zero ideas about it. 
Fast-forwarding to a point a decade later that they met again- all thanks to their parent's meddling. He was awestruck when he saw her again for the first time. She had been grown up into a confident and beautiful young woman who lived by her own rules. Although both of them had been wary about the idea of getting married they just knew deep down that it would work. 
Kai sat alone in their love seat puffing out the smoke from his cigarette while he doused it out by pressing it hard on the ashtray. He closed his lyric-book as no idea came to his mind in his current lovesick state. He heard the door click open in the silence of the empty house. 
He couldn't remember anyone with a key to their home visiting him that day. His wife had told him that she would be coming back the next night as an urgent meeting was scheduled at the very last moment. 
He really didn't understand how she changed her priorities so easily. He still had a hard time wrapping his head around the idea that the journalist he had married was now one of the most sought out youngest entrepreneur- adding beautiful to that list too.  
Curious about who could have been visiting him he made a beeline to the front door. To his shocked surprise, he was met with beaming eyes of Min-Soe who was grinning from ear to ear. His words got stuck in his mouth and he stood there once again surprised by her. Mel chuckled to herself when she saw him shocked beyond surprise before she sprung onto him hugging him tight and whispering that she missed him.
Kai responded not a moment later now completely sure that their decision of getting married when the opportunity presented itself was the best thing that they could have ever done before he inhaled deeply and buried his face in her neck.

The second book of the series: 'Runaway Rich Guy's Love Endeavour'
The third book of the series: 'Chance Encounter (love at first sight)'

After witnessing all quirks of family of Mr. Hwang, the two just don't mind it because they can relate it sometimes. 

Both Tae and Rei wondered if the kids will meet someday and they don't know how they communicate to each other when they have all different personalities. Tae's niece Jia is too innocent and Rei's nieces and nephews are all smart that if they can detect that it's going to this topic they will automatically covered their ears and yet Na's son is too shameful when his still 3 years old.


Both Li's couple already left when Rui running away and Aron go back to his work without figuring that both Rie and Tae are the same person who help his daughter in law leaving Mr. Hwang, Annie and the couple in the room.

Annie : That's my family dear but let me process you're dischargement first.

Rei : Ahh yes Doctor Li

Annie : Geez, just call me Mom, dear.

Rei : That....

Annie : Don't worry about that and you're the first friend of Na that she's been worried like you're her sister.

Rei : Ahh I see, thank you Mom.

Annie : Good, good and I'm going now. Just be careful dear, you're already 5 weeks pregnant.


Rei : Yes Mom


Hwang : Alright while my sister is processing you're dischargement, the two of you can talk. I'm just standing outside.


Both : Thank you Mr. Hwang


After Mr. Hwang leave from the room, Tae caressing the face of his wife.

"You're pregnant wifey"

"Uh-uh" then suddenly realized that Tae's crying "eh, hubby why are you crying?"

"I don't know Rei" then hug her but not so tight 
"I was too shocked and surprised when Mr. Hwang said that you're here in the hospital and heard that you faint. Then when I heard that you're pregnant I was too happy. My emotions is going upside down, happy for the pregnancy news and sad because you collapse and faint then I will be away for 2 months for the concert"

"Don't even think about not joining the concert,  don't worry hubby, I can handle it"

"Geez, you're more important to me wifey"

"You've been rehearsing all day and night Tae, and don't forget I've been busy also for completing and fixing the team schedules for my job and for you Dear"

"Geez, if I know it then I won't go against you to come with us"

"It's alright and you make a good decision hubby because if not, then they will be aware that I'm pregnant"

"...."

"Don't worry hubby, I will take care of myself and I will priority my health first."

"Geez you always remind me and the team that our main priority is our health and yet here you are"

"Sorry"

Then release his hug and facing face to face with his wife. 

"I will be leaving two days from now and then I will be coming back after two months. I would be really miss you, Hon"

"Same here dear"

Then kissing his wife passionately and release her.

"Sorry for being unreasonable that time and I was upset for nothing"

"It's alright Tae" then wrap her arms around Rei since she doesn't have IV Drips on her wrist "and it's our first fight you know"

"Yeah right and by the way"

"Mmm?"

"I've seen your letter and notes"

"Notes?"

"Yes and it's about how to coax your jealous husband"

"Eh, how did you know?"

"You forgot your private phone Hon and the notes was place on the dining table"

"Eh, so don't tell me you saw it all?" 

"Yup, yup"

"Geez, that's too embarrassing"

Tae laugh and then touching her womb "we will become a parents soon Rei"

"Uh-uh and I'm 5 weeks pregnant"

"Counting that one, today is Feb 14 so Jan 14 would be it's 4 weeks and so mostly it's around January 7-14. The last time we did it was last Jan 8"

"Geez, why are you counting that one?"

"It's because that's the day I put my seeds to you, wifey"

"....."

"Ahh, that's right both Bro El and Mei are having twins so maybe we might have twins Rei"

"Do you want it to be twins?"

"Uh-uh but well whatever it is I will still accept it because it's our first baby" then put his head to her womb "baby, how are you? It's your Papa"

"Papa?"

"Uh-uh, I like that one and I want our kids to call us Mama and Papa, the way how you call you're parents Hon"

"I see"

Tae continue talking to her womb like his talking to his baby and then Rei stop him.

"Alright you can stop it already because they might think that you did something perverted to me"

"Okay" then the moment he return to his seat, both Mr. Hwang and Annie entered the room.

"I'm already done with your dischargement dear"

"Let's go now Rei and Tae"

"Yes Mr. Hwang"

"I will drop off you at the company Rei and you can drive but be careful okay"

"Yes Mr. Hwang"

Then the three of them left in the room while Tae carry his wife things and they've arrived at the company. Tae just looking his wife before she drove off and go to the studio. His been suddenly become lively because he is soon to be a father and have a baby with his love of his life. The team notice it but they didn't know what is it.

After 2 days, Tae and the team leave for the concert tours while Rei still on break because she still need to recuperate and regain her energy back. After 1 week pass, Rei got back to work and become the schedule Manager of all the artists signed in CA Entertainment, in other words she got promoted but she's still part of M'Dols manager team and just working behind the scenes. Tae just send her a message of how she is and how's going on with a replied to him doing fine and the baby is behaving because Papa is not around. 

The two just exchanging messages because Tae doesn't want to call her wife because too afraid that he might get caught red handed and most of all Rei might get exposes to radiation that can be affect to the baby. Even the couple's are in different country, they can never feel that they're away and only one thing left is their presence to each other. Sending I miss you to each other and I love you to each other is not enough for them but they know that their doing all of this for their future family and sooner or later they will become parents to their first baby.

One month and one week pass, so only less than one month left before the couple meet again, Na got back to work and go to where Rei right away.

Neil: You're a lost cause

What happens when two unlikely people met each other for the first time? They get married! That's right, they definitely did. They were akin to two parallel lines that weren't supposed to intersect or touch at any given  point in time. But in that fateful moment that they did meet, they were thrust into the world of whirlwind romance.

A handsome, thoughtful and cold-heated man, King Margaux Hendrix, who spent most of his years in unrequited love accidentally met a beautiful, introverted and forlorn woman, Violet Hailey Quinn, who was betrayed by her long time and long distance boyfriend. Two people that when put together were comparable to a dog and a cat. They changed the trajectories of their lives in one moment. Never be the same again.
 
Together, they tread and explored the waters of love, the unknown and uncertainty. Through twists and turns, they gradually fell in love as their adventure called marriage, unfolds. Their encounter created a butterfly effect that seeped into other people's lives and set off chains of events with the resounding click like that of a falling domino. 

-----

The whole story is about two people that shouldn't have met, always at each other's throat, sort of fell in love I think?

Violet: "What sort of? Damn it! We have no choice!!! You wrote us!" 

YoureMySun: "Y-you!!!!! You can't be here! Stop crossing dimensions! You're ruining my synopsis for your story!" 

King: "Can you change the female lead? Someone who's more beautiful and cultured?" 

Violet: "Bastardddddd!! You're dead!!!" 

YoureMySun: "Cut it King! You're not supposed to be here too! Stop agitating Violet, ok?" 

King: "Hahahahaha me? stop? Dream on! I'll annoy the heck out of this woman. Even if it's the last thing I do! Gyahahaha" *evil laugh

Violet: *pulls out bat from somewhere then charged at King

YoureMySun: "Oh my God!!! V where the heck did you even get that! Stop right there!" 

King: "W-woman! I-i know how much you love me so don't you dare hit my face!" 

Violet: "Me love you? You of all people? Only an idiot will fall for you" *said through gnashing her teeth

King: "You're the idiot that fell for me, you know? G-get away from me barbarian!" 

YoureMySun: "You guys left me with no choice" 

*Our dearest author left with no choice, pulls out the magical keypad as she wrote,

YoureMySun: "As Violet was gunning for King, she tripped and fell in his embrace. And end up kissing each other. Then a good samaritan from the story's dimension accidentally throws a rope through the worm hole while trying to catch the running horse. The two got tied in the same position. The samaritan pulled and was shocked to see two people instead of the horse. He blinked then they disappeared, and wondered if he gone crazy. The two was transported to their love nest stuck in that position for the whole day. Until Violet had enough being taken advantage of by King. She ripped the rope and starts bashing King with a pillow. While King's laughters and ouchies reverberates throughout the house. And they lived happily ever after"

*closes keypad, bows in apology to the readers

YoureMySun: "Finally got some peace and quiet. Sighhh... I apologize dearest readers. It's been too lively?" 

"Where was I? Going back" 

They fell in love through twists and turns. Violet, a beautiful, charming, quiet, and a kind girl unexpectedly met King, a handsome, rich, playful and iceberg-man. 

"She's really kind and quiet you know, believe me. It's just that, King happened" 

Join me dear readers in exploring their lives, how they met, what will become of them, their adventures and their story :D

Akito understood what Natasha was getting at.
"We found a book from the future among the notorious killer's belongings. If Setsura knew about that, she would get involved for sure. So, why don't you say?"
"That's why I'm not saying," Akito trailed off and whispered. "Say, Natasha. Murderers can become time travelers too? A subject?" he said. It felt like he asked somebody else this question before too.
Natasha nodded, "Yes, that's why we inform the onmyoji or spiritual beings from the time. So, they can keep an eye out on the situation."
"The thing is Natasha if we told Setsura that then she would personally search for the other time travelers. They aren't supposed to come in contact, properly, right?"
"Ah," Natasha nodded. "Right, it's not uncommon for subjects to brush past one another. However, they aren't supposed to get involved as in seeing each other daily. Or speak with them long. Do you know why that is?"
"It messes up the time paradox?"
"Yes, since the subjects all come from different times. A subject comes here from the future or the past, they come in contact with the people who live in this time. That's already messing up the time paradox. But, because of our rules we can bend things. However, if multiple subjects become acquainted, then we will get in trouble."
"I see, so that's why you don't normally send out more than one person."
"Were already messing with time as it is. We can't have people from multiple times meet. Otherwise, it will cause physical damage and harm to the world."
"So, what if it happens?" Akito questioned.
"If it happens, then .. something terrible will occur."
"Something terrible?"
Natasha nodded and opened up one of the boxes, "You see, let's put this way. What if you end up meeting your ancestor from another time?"
"You might cease to exist."
"Right, it's the same as that."
Cease to exist, something similar? Like how his wife vanished? Akito didn't want to think about it that way. However, now that he thought about it. Even long before his wife disappeared, there were times at night where it felt like her hand was disappearing. At first, he thought he was just imagining things. As time went by though, he changed his mind. There was a time where he was holding her hand, and then suddenly it felt like he was holding air. If that really is the effect, then he can't allow Setsura to get involved with this.
The problem here is, Setsura already saw the case files earlier. Most likely, she's already hunting up on whatever lead she found. He has a bad feeling about this entire thing. Maybe he ought to call her, however, if Setsura has found a trail. Would stopping her cause more people to die?
For the first time, Akito hesitated. Does he have to make such choices once again? Choosing between his loved one and saving lives.
What kind of situation is this? This seems to happen to him a lot. Akito placed his hand on his forehead, what a mess. It seems like no matter what he does, the people around him have to get hurt. It's not even funny anymore.
He could remember everything about that horrible night, and stand here and cry about it. Like it'd just happened moments ago. As if she was still right there at his feet. The last person who saw her properly was Chauncey; by the time he saw her, she was injured severely before vanishing. Contrary to what people say, he saw her one last time. It was brief since he came too late. However, he saw her.
Akito remembered the feeling all too well. His legs were shaking and heavy. His chest throbbed due to the pain. He got shot in the leg several times. He bites his lip to stop himself from crying. He had to be strong and not cry. That's the last thing he wanted her to see. Akito wondered if she saw him from that distance. If she did, did she cry too?
He could remember the looks of horrors of the people she became close with as he delivered the news. The students she taught all looked at him with a loathsome glare. The one thing that stood out in their eyes was hate.
"I know, it's hard to accept," Natasha said. "But, when Setsura completes her job. She has to return anyway."
"She said she would stay."
Natasha blinked, "She did? Well, I guess people do make that decision. Still, I'm a bit surprised. Didn't she have someone in the future? Is it okay for her to leave him and pick you."
His sweat fell at that remark, "Hey, what's wrong with me?"
"I'm not saying there is anything wrong. But. You have to admit Akito. It's a tough decision to make. Sacrificing the life she knew just to be with you."
"I know," he mumbled. He knew that all too well. How difficult and how complicated it was. That's why this entire procedure bothered him.
Akito didn't say any more to that and returned to searching the boxes. He was in deep thought. A theory came to mind when he saw which book left at the scene. It seemed familiar to him, this pattern. Exactly what does it remind him of?
No good, no matter how many times he thinks about it. Nothing comes to mind; why is that?
When his wife left him, so many things happened at once. Akito remembered how worthless he felt.
He no longer had a purpose in this world. He was...worthless.
Worthless...
The wrong person had died back then. The wrong person had lived. The one who should have died was him. He should've died or disappeared with her. He deserved death.
No matter how much he repeats it to the point that he would lose his voice. It wouldn't bring her back from the dead.
Dead…
Is she actually dead, or did she return to the place she came from? Now that he thought about it, didn't his wife have a partner from the future too? It seems like he always takes people away from their loved ones. He feels terrible; this entire time, he thought his love for her was pure. The same goes for the love he has for Setsura. But how is it pure?
It isn't pure at all; those two never belonged to him.
"You know, didn't your wife have her own place?" Natasha mumbled.
"Right, you got her one, sir."
Ah, "Maybe she took it?"
....
Outskirt of town - Harbour -
His wife's little safe house was nothing more than a plain building. It resembled her appearance a bit. Small, fragile, and innocent.
Nobody would think his wife was a fighter.
When Akito first saw her, he didn't think that this little girl could be a capable officer since she was shy and didn't believe in herself. But she proved him wrong. His wife and Setsura weren't alike - however...
Akito blinked when he saw the interior, black walls narrow grey stripes in huge intervals rising from the ground to the top, all over the black wall. The floor made of dark wooded. The black-haired boy couldn't believe his wife choose this place. Now that he thought about it, this was one of the places he never went to. He bought it for her, to respect her privacy. He didn't want to invade her little space.
A place like this doesn't suit her, at least doesn't suit the her he got to know.
They skimmed through each room. One was completely empty. Another was a kitchen, but even that seemed abandoned. No kitchen tools whatsoever. Usually, when one enters a place, somebody hasn't entered in so long they would find old dust.
The next room filled with boxes and papers. A sofa and a small table. In the surroundings, there were papers and books.
Both walls contained notes and some drawings. 'So, she was secretly investigating something here?' Akito made his way over to the wall. Quite some time has passed since he last saw her handwriting. He threw away anything related to her at the main house after all.
'Nostalgia,' he brushes his hands across the small notes on the wall. She always had this bad habit of making strange marks whenever she wrote notes.
He heard his companion sighing after a few moments.
"Huh? What's..."
Natasha and Kai looked up, and he immediately recognized the old grey cloak Kai held up. Ah? That's his old cloak, isn't it? The one he had on when they first met. It's a bit surprising, Akito didn't think she would keep something old like this. Then again, it seems like he is learning more about his wife than he did back when she was around.
That woman wasn't as innocent and naive as he thought. Then again, didn't he think the same when he met Setsura? There was something about her that differed than all the others.


Love across time [Meiji 1895- Tokyo 2019] "You..you murderer!"

'It...it wasn't me,' she wanted to say. But the words would not leave her lips. The colour of blood covered her hands, proving the other persons point. It wasn't her, but why?

Framed for her Mothers murder when she was ten year's old. Kaname Setsura spends the following eight years gathering information on the case. 

Against her families wishes, she accepts her scholarship to a famous art University, ST Rinkan. In that place, there is a 'clue' to the events from what happened eight years ago. However right as she is about to marry the man she loves, on the day of their graduation, an accident occurs, leading to her fiance to fall into a coma. Distraught, lost and uncertain Setsura shuts herself away from the world, and her half brother uses this chance to send her away abroad. 

Setsura accepts, but on that day, a grand scale earthquake occurs, right as she is about to board the plane and she wakes up in the middle of the roadside and finds herself in the year 1895. With the help of a man named 'Akito,' she settles into the Meiji era and discovers that the three major "accidents" in her life that occurred, one in 2011 and the two in Tokyo 2019, are connected to a series of cases in 1895 "Mysterious cases of the shard"

"Who calls their wife by her name?" Changqing snatched the phone over vexedly and changed it to "Qing Bao."
"Really… shameless." Song Chuyi moved his lips.
"That would make it look more intimate." Changqing pouted her lips high up and threw his phone back to him, saying tyrannically, "You're not allowed to change it."
Song Chuyi looked at the two words helplessly. If Zhan Mingwei and Li Shaobin were to see it, they would definitely mock him again.
"Also…" Changqing said again, "Next time, you're not allowed to have a candle-lit dinner with Li Shaobin. We didn't even have a candle-lit dinner together before, we've never watched a movie together yet and you haven't even cut sashimi personally for me before."
"When did I have a candle-lit dinner with him?" Song Chuyi frowned. What nonsense was this?
"Tonight." Changqing crossed her arms and looked depressed. "When I called you, Li Shaobin said the two of you were having a candle-lit dinner at sea and said that I've been hogging you. When have I always hogged you?"
Song Chuyi clenched his teeth. Li Shaobin, that b*stard. If I don't beat him up the next time I see him, I'm not a Song. "You believe whatever people tell you. How could I possibly have a candle-lit dinner with Li Shaobin? We were having dinner out at sea but Mingwei and his wife were there too. The four of us went out to sea. I was cutting the sashimi because I have good cutting skills while Mingwei's wife was in charge of cooking. Li Shaobin was teasing you, silly."
"What?" Changqing was in a daze. When she came back to her senses, she was still quite happy. "You can't fault me since Li Shaobin was the one who picked up the call. Besides, the relationship between you two was ambiguous, to begin with."
"Since when was my relationship with him ambiguous?" Song Chuyi's handsome face tensed up as he stared at her. If she dared to say anything else, he would definitely teach her a good lesson.
Changqing shuffled to the side guiltily as she said, "Because… because I've never seen Li Shaobin with a girlfriend. Besides, he treats you like you're an imperial edict. You were on a break but instead of accompanying me, you went to accompany him."
"What do you know about the things between men?" Song Chuyi let out a deep sigh. He had to calm himself down. Even if he were to become homosexual one day, he wouldn't want Li Shaobin, that fool. "We went out to sea today mainly because Shaobin managed to get tuna and Wagyu beef from Japan. That was why the few of us gathered together."
"You guys actually gathered to eat good stuff without inviting me along?" As a glutton, Changqing felt that them having good food without her was worse than him having a candle-lit dinner behind her back. "Song Chuchu, have you ever taken me to be your wife? You're simply too, too, too much. I love Wagyu beef the most. The meat texture of Wagyu beef simply melts in your mouth and is fatty yet not greasy whether it's Shabu Shabu, pan-fried or grilled. You have no idea how much I want to eat it."
Changqing pounced over and pounded on his chest with annoyance.
Song Chuyi really didn't understand the world of a glutton. However, seeing her going hysterical, he found it interesting and crossed his legs. "You're right—it was indeed good. It was such a huge piece that the four of us almost puked towards the end. In the end, we didn't finish it and we threw it to feed Robben. If I'd known earlier that you liked it so much, I would've brought some back for you."
"Song Chuchu, I hate you. Robben, I hate you too." Changqing stared daggers at both of them.
Robben whimpered and placed his paws on her knees but was pushed away by Changqing mercilessly.
"I'm ignoring the two of you.
Changqing went upstairs to take a shower in a huff.
Song Chuyi watched her back and his mouth curled into a gleeful smile.
Robben was gloomy. He seemed to have been despised once again.
When Changqing came out from the shower, Song Chuyi had also come up. She looked disapprovingly at him and ignored him, walking towards her computer.
After Song Chuyi finished his slow shower, he entered the study room. Changqing didn't even look him in the eye, staring intently at her computer screen.
"Are you still angry?" Song Chuyi asked casually as he leaned on the study table. After his shower, he was topless and water droplets trickled down his skin sexily, exuding a strong sense of testosterone.
Changqing replied with a snort.
Song Chuyi tilted his head and pondered for a while before taking out his phone to call Li Shaobin.
"Old Song…" Li Shaobin was guilty when he picked up the call. Would Song Chuyi find out about the things he said to tease his wife?
"Shaobin, ah." Song Chuyi said coldly, "The Wagyu beef you brought today wasn't bad. Changqing wants to have some.
"Tonight, bring some over at the fastest speed possible. Make it as large as possible. I hope I can taste it by tomorrow night."
Li Shaobin was guilty and because of that, he heaved a sigh of relief. He nodded immediately like he received an order from the Commander-in-Chief. "No problem, no problem. I guarantee that I'll get you a piece of Wagyu beef freshly slaughtered and while I'm at it, I'll get you some fresh prawns and crabs." 
"Sure." Song Chuyi hung up, bent down and his thin lips hooked up into a sexy curve towards Changqing, who pricked her ears up trying to listen. "Are you satisfied now?"
Changqing bit her lower lip and suppressed the sweetness and glee within her eyes by looking around.
Song Chuyi inched his head and lips closer towards her, burying his face calmly into her alluring neck which was fragrant with the smell of shower gel. His voice was charming and bewitching. "Tomorrow night at Lakeview Residence, I'll make you a candle-lit dinner. Will that do?"
Changqing's head hung lower and lower. Song Chuyi stared intently at her earlobe which was reddening quickly and he kissed it.
Changqing's body shrank. Her amorous eyes blinked as she turned to look at him, saying with her sweet lips coyly, "That's more like it."
"Glutton."
"What's wrong?"
"My period came this afternoon," Changqing said with embarrassment.
Song Chuyi's burning body suddenly froze.
He stared at her without a word with his dark pupils. Changqing hid to the side. "I have no choice; it's always a few days each month. Actually, it's good for you to rest for a few days. Isn't it bad for our bodies if we keep acting like this every day?"
"It's not every day," Song Chuyi corrected her.
After watching her for a while, he turned around without a word and went out to study his surgical notes.
Chuchu watched an episode of a variety show on her own and felt that it wasn't particularly interesting and she went over to pester Song Chuchu again. "Chuchu…"
She put her arms around his neck. "I forgot to tell you that I'll have to go to Hong Kong to film in two days' time."
Song Chuyi was deep into his notes and didn't raise his head, only asking casually, "How long will it take?"
"I'm afraid I'll have to be there for half a month. In the meantime, I'll be back to record two episodes of my program but it will be rushed," Changqing said.
Only then did he put his documents down and frowned. "You're just a second female lead; why did you get so many scenes?"
"The production team changed the script. I have as many scenes as the female lead now," Changqing said.
Song Chuyi's gaze became increasingly cold. Good one, Fu Yu. This trick again. "When you're done with this drama, don't film any more dramas again."
"Oh," Changqing replied obediently. She felt that it was easier to be a host after she started filming this drama anyway and didn't really care for it anymore.
Song Chuyi wasn't at all surprised at her prompt reply.
Although they weren't married for long, he knew very clearly how much ambition his woman had.
He lowered his head and continued reading his notes.
Changqing was unsatisfied and blocked his view with her hands, grumbling, "I'm going to Hong Kong, yet you don't seem like you can't bear to part with me at all. You're still in the mood to look at your things."
"I have surgery tomorrow morning—have you forgotten?" Song Chuyi reminded her in a low tone.
Changqing blanked out for a while and recalled he had to do an operation on a girl called Xiao Yu.
"But I didn't hear you saying you wanted to look at your things just now when you carried me to bed," Changqing said softly. What she meant was that she didn't see him acting busy when he wanted to roll around in bed with her, but when they weren't going to do it anymore, he busied himself. "You men are too much. I'm not your tool for rolling around in bed."
"Even if I did roll around in bed with you, I would still crawl up to look at my notes afterwards." Song Chuyi pulled her to sit on his lap without a choice, cuddling her while looking at his notes. 
Only then was Changqing satisfied. She followed his gaze and looked at his notes. She didn't understand a single bit. Hence, she raised her head to look at his face.
He really treated her as invisible.
In any case, he had a beauty in his embrace.
He actually wasn't a single bit distracted.
Changqing played with his hair dejectedly and fiddled with the collar of his pyjamas, opening it to reveal a large section of his chest. Lastly, she centred her attention on his chest. She looked at hers then at his again. Finally, she touched it with her hand. His chest was quite big.
Song Chuyi's patience ran out and he pushed her away once again. "Do you think I can concentrate on my studies with you acting like this? Go play on your own." 
Changqing pressed her lips together. However, thinking about that little girl, she also understood that it was a life at stake and it wasn't a small matter. Hence, she ran off to the study room again to watch her romance drama.
After half an hour, the sound of the car engine came from downstairs. Changqing recalled that she hadn't accompanied Yan Lei for a long while. Hence, she rushed downstairs and to her surprise, she discovered her Dad wearing a green polo tee, looking refreshed and he even looked a few years younger.
Changqing was astonished. "Dad, when did you get something like this? Why haven't I seen it before?"
"Ever since you got your husband, when have you taken notice of your father?" Yan Lei looked at her scornfully.
Changqing felt even more apologetic and quickly went up to him to pass him a watermelon to curry his favor. "Dad, think about how you put it. If I hadn't taken notice of you, would I have stayed around at the Yan household every day after getting married? I've just been too busy lately."
Yan Lei accepted the watermelon and nodded with satisfaction. "However, it's not nice for you to stay at home every day. After all, you're married. You should move back to Lakeview Residence with Chuyi tomorrow. Don't keep staying at home."
"You just said I wasn't concerned about you. Now you're chasing me out," Changqing snorted.
"It's all for your own good. Staying at your parent's home every day—it'd be difficult for Chuyi to say it…" Yan Lei was in midspeech when his phone rang. He quickly pushed Changqing, who was clinging onto him, away and picked up the phone as he walked upstairs, saying with a chuckle, "I'm home, I'm home… you, on the other hand, are you tired…"
Changqing watched as Yan Lei closed the door to his room quietly. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat. This didn't sound like the tone Yan Lei usually spoke in.
Chuyi felt like she had fallen out of love. She returned to the bedroom gloomily. When she saw that Song Chuyi was still reading his things, she suppressed herself and didn't bother him.
It wasn't until ten when Song Chuyi was preparing to sleep that he asked lazily, "You look like you've held it in for a very long time. What did you want to say?" 
Changqing was fired up immediately and pounced over, saying, "I think there's something wrong with Dad. It seems like he's going to get me a stepmother."


Changqing has always felt that she's incomparable to Guan Ying in every aspect. Even though she is pretty and has a good family background, this world is nothing more than a world where Princes are more attracted to Cinderellas.

Her first love that she dearly remembers in her heart for years eventually becomes Guan Ying’s current boyfriend and her fiancé is Guan Ying’s ex. He has yet to forget Guan Ying.

A business marriage brings Changqing and Song Chuyi together despite the absence of love.
In public, he is her friend’s ex and in private he is her husband who cannot be publicly–known.
At the hospital, her good friend enjoys her husband’s embrace while she can only act as though he's a stranger.
At a gala dinner, her good friend hooks her arm around her first love’s arm shyly and she can only smile and give them her blessings.

…

In this marriage, Changqing thinks that all is well other than the fact that Song Chuyi doesn’t love her.
First, her husband is a doctor and he can treat all her illnesses while saving up on medical expenses.
Second, doctors love cleanliness and her husband would always ensure the cleanliness of the house.
Third, at the end of every month, her thin wallet would grow thick with cash that her husband stuffs in secretly.
Fourth, as a person who doesn’t like to exercise, she always get dragged around by her husband day and night to do some pleasurable exercise that is beneficial for the body and mind.
Fifth, she would never have to worry that she would be out of money.
There are always so many uncountable advantages that Changqing enjoys.

…

After the marriage, on a certain night, Changqing looks at Dr. Song gloomily. "Hubby, why are you so nice to me when you don’t even love me?"
Dr. Song continues reading his medical books and ignores her. It's sometimes quite a headache when your wife is too stupid and daft.
Until one day, Changqing realises that there's really no free lunch in this world…

"Oh…"
Yanee had never felt such a strong urge to gush out at how cute something was until now. If she didn't know about the strict and intimidating side of Cube Inc's CEO, she'd have crossed the distance between them to give him a pat on the head for a job well done. She's talking about his evolution from a hard CEO to a model on fatherhood, of course.
Unlike when Yunjae told the story and she cried, Yanee now couldn't help but let out a satisfied sigh and smile. If she could describe her feeling, it'd be all marshmallows and cotton candy.
Fluff. Fluff.
"Aww… Honey, you're so cute," Yunjae voiced out Yanee's thoughts, as she poked her husband on the cheek.
However, in spite of her teasing tone, her eyes shone so brightly like diamonds. It was very obvious that she was very happy with her husband, and Yanee couldn't approve more. She deserved it. He deserved it. After all that they'd been through, even if for other people, they acted like fools, she believed that the happiness they had now was very much warranted.
"Are you sure, you don't need to write anything down?"Jinho asked Yanee, who once again failed to take down notes.
Realizing this, Yanee palmed her face, much to Yunaje's amusement. She laughingly poked her husband again as she defended Yanee. "Ya! She has a good memory. I'm sure she'd be able to remember everything."
Yanee Lee embarrassingly nodded her agreement as she gave them a megawatt smile. "Don't worry, Mr. Kang, I won't forget a thing," she promised, and the CEO nodded.
In his part, Jinho was not at all worried about the book, anyway. It's just that if he did not ask, Yanee might find it strange that he didn't seem to care. If she started getting puzzled over these little details, she might accidentally discover the truth behind this project, and it's too early for that to happen.
It just started! He shouldn't let their love-sick little brother, who was left in Japan down.
"By the way, Ms. Lee," Jinho changed the topic, and both ladies turned to him, waiting. "We're you informed that we don't want our real names used on the book?"
Yanee sat up straight as she smiled reassuringly. "Yes, sir. My boss had instructed me to use different names for the characters of the book."
It was totally normal for them to request this as they were people known by many. Even if she would be basing her anthology on real people, she was instructed to change all names and never mention real companies and places unless it's a known landmark.
"Alright," Jinho nodded before glancing at his wife and taking her hand in his. "We're leaving our story in your hands, then."
Yanee smiled warmly at them and thanked them for trusting them with the story of their lives. After that, she was invited by the couple to have dinner, and they even took her personally back to the hotel as Yanee told the hotel's service she left the café earlier where she was supposed to be picked up.
That night, Yanee didn't sleep immediately even if it was getting late. She actually had three days there in Soul. Today was just the first day, but she already finished her interview. She was supposed to spend tomorrow sorting out her notes and writing a bit before she returned to Tokyo the morning after. But she was in the mood to finish writing her notes tonight.
She closed her eyes and images the words Yunjae and Jinho told her flooded her mind, and her hand automatically glided across the paper as she wrote each and every detail she remembered from their story. This continued on for a few hours. She wrote not just words but the feelings she had while she listened.
When she finished, it was already almost four in the morning which surprised her. She didn't think she'd spent that much time writing as she worked continuously and only stopped twice to go to the toilet.
"Wow…"
Yanee was amazed. She couldn't believe she'd work this efficiently. She's even more hardworking just a while ago compared to when she worked to impress someone at her previous office.   
"WAAAA!"
Realizing she thought of something she shouldn't have, she tugged at her hair as a form of punishment. She had promised herself not to look back into the past anymore. It took her a while and she worked hard on forgetting her bitter memories. They were better left where they should belong: out of her mind, just as that person was now out of her life.
Then again, as she went over her notes for one last time before going to sleep, something bothered her and she frowned. She read her story outline again, and once more felt disturbed. Why?
"How can I say that this is an office romance?" Yanee wondered out loud.
It was true that Yunjae and Jinho worked in the same company, and were even boss and secretary at some point. In their case, they worked together for two months before they got married. However…
"But they knew each other since they were in college," Yanee stated problematically.
The two met and fell in love as students in the same swimming club and not at work. They even conceived their first child during that time, before their misunderstanding happened and they separated. Their flames were only rekindled when they met again after two years. They had an office affair and found out the truth about their past, and then got back together again.
It was truly a heartwarming and magnificent story.
"But is that considered an office romance?"Yanee wondered again.
She was expecting to be interviewing people who met and fell in love at their workplace. If they already knew each other before, then she had no idea if that was still okay.
"I guess I better ask the potato then," Yanee commented with a sigh.
She wondered if Tohru James had an idea what Yunaje's story was about. It's good if he did. Because if he did, then it meant that her interview and the Kang couple's love story wouldn't be in vain.
Remembering Yunjae and Jinho, Yanee Lee smiled as she let out a satisfied sigh. She didn't notice that her pessimistic heart felt like she could believe in love at that moment in time.


An Office Romance Anthology...

Yanee Lee was a budding lifestyle writer. She was always aiming to become the best in her chosen field. Sadly, a brutal take over in the publishing company happened just as she was about to get it big.

"Caw caw, Master, you have finally succeeded! From now on, you will embark on the road of a powerful sorcerer!" Little Myna yelped in astonishment and opened the Dimensional Gap with his wing.

"Master, now that you have established the foundation to become a powerful sorcerer, I can put my mind to rest and pass you that old fellow's experiment notes about the Dimensional Gaps. Oh yes, besides the experiment notes, I'll also give you the Soul Energy he left in my body…" Little Myna said in a deep and stern voice.

Grimm, on the other hand, stood still without saying a word. He was zoning out, watching the series of events unfolding one after another.

Was it because he was simply shocked by the great achievements that he was no longer able to express his joy appropriately?

Knock! Knock! Knock!

There was another series of knocks on his door that Grimm had already somehow expected. As Little Myna skipped happily towards the door to open it, Grimm mumbled to himself, "I am guessing… It's Nairo."

Clink-clank! Clink-clank!

The noise of black metal chains clashing resonated across the castle. The eyes under the wavy blonde hair glanced at Grimm. It was a glance of sympathy and compassion. Her eyes were blood-shot and slightly drenched.

"Grimm, I didn't know… When you asked me for my brother's self-sealing spell, the 'Crystallized Time', I didn't know it was for your wife. Mavrica Nevichy has enlightened me with your news," Nairo uttered, she was so moved that she was in tears.

"I'm willing to help you realize your 'Crystallized Time of Lefay's Wonderful Moments'!"

Grimm's dual-colored eyes under the Mask of Truth were exceptionally calm. There seemed to be a dispute between emotion and reason. He said in a deep voice, "No, I don't need it."

"No!"

Little by little, Nairo removed the black chain that bound her body, revealing her well-balanced curvy body in front of Grimm.

Nairo said in a resolute tone, "You need my help because this is not just your wish, but mine too! Can you see it? These chains represent my brother's love for me, you can't…"

Suddenly, Grimm sighed regretfully.

He lifted his head, watching the Demon-Hunters bustling about and flying in the sky, admiring the towering Tree of Life that swayed with the wind, gazing at a row of Demon-Hunter Castles, and feeling the warm breeze that blew gently on his face.

"What a wonderful world."

Nairo and Little Myna were stunned in surprise. Vivian approached them and said in a very admirable way, "Yes, Senior Grimm, the Sorcerers World is a wonderful place with you in it, you are the beacon of my Sorcerer's journey."

Grimm shook his head. Out of the blue, he shredded the experiment notes of the Destructive Force Gauge in his hands, tearing one piece after another and throwing them into the air.

"Caw? Master, are you out of your mind? This is the experimental result that you have spent hundreds of years gathering!" Little Myna shrieked upon the horrifying sight.

Grimm shook his head again with a mocking smile on his face. "But this is also a very awful world."

Grimm threw all the shredded notes into the air and heaved a sigh of disappointment. "If this is what the endless world is supposed to be like, everything is achievable, everything is so wonderful, what's the point of my naive ignorance and long-term pursuit? Is it… just to do whatever I please?"

Nairo mumbled, confused, "Grimm, what's wrong with you? Isn't it one of your wishes to perfect the 'Crystallized Time of Lefay's Wonderful Moments'?"

Grimm received a similarly confused glare from Little Myna, with a hint of doubt and skepticism. "Master, what's the matter with you?"

Vivian mumbled, intimidated and worried, "Senior, please don't be like this, you are scaring me."

Again, Grimm shook his head, a scornful sneer emerged under the Mask of Truth. He opened the Dimensional Gap with one hand.

Lefay, who was sealed, surfaced.

The dual-colored eyes under the Mask of Truth ignited like a wildfire, carefully searching for something. In an instant, Grimm opened the sealing apparatus and pulled out the necklace on Lefay's chest.

Lefay's soul was sealed inside the necklace, preserving her complete consciousness.

"Grimm, you found me, finally."

The necklace in Grimm's hand communicated with the Soul Echo which did not surprise Grimm. He asked, "Lefay, how can I save you?"

Lefay heaved a sigh of relief. 

"Using the Self-Rebirth Sorcery that only machinists can own! However, based on my current situation, you need to make a trip to Sky City, or maybe ask a Stigmata Sorcerer to use the Void Fortress's…"

Perseverance and sorrow flashed across Grimm's dual-colored eyes under the Mask of Truth. He resolutely put the necklace back into the sealing apparatus.

Ignoring Nairo and Little Myna's rambling discourse, Grimm headed towards Millie's Demon-Hunter Castle.

"Grimm! How can you do that to my sister? She loves you so much!"

Mina's interrogation resonated as soon as Grimm opened the door. He smirked as he felt the attraction of the Body of Flame and teased, "Because the one I really love is you."

Mina, who was supposed to be angry, blushed bright red at Grimm's words.

"Really? I love you too, but… No! If you really love me, then please, let's remain friends, I hope you and my sister…"

Grimm sneered a contemptuous smile under the Mask of Truth, but the words blurted out of his mouth were like the sentimental dialogs orchestrated by a comedian actor.

"But, Mina, I love you. Let's be together, you are the most important person in my life other than Lefay!"

Mina bit her lips in embarrassment and gazed at Grimm. 

"Grimm, don't be like this, please."

Although Mina was refusing him verbally, she threw herself into Grimm's embrace and whispered timidly, "Okay, Let's be lovers, I don't care about your past, I don't care about your future, I don't mind if you have other women, as long as I'm always on your mind."

"Hmm."

Grimm suddenly pushed Mina away indifferently. He left Millie's castle and laid his eyes on the streets. An old sorcerer was walking leisurely on the street, smiling with ease and amusement.

With his emotionless expression, Grimm strode towards him.

"Huh?"

The old sorcerer stopped beside Grimm and asked in astonishment, "Did you use up your governing souls?"

"Yes, I did," Grimm replied sluggishly, waiting for the sorcerer to continue after him.

"Hahaha, what a coincidence! My expertise is the research on souls. I was only planning for a leisurely walk but I didn't expect to encounter such an interesting matter. One hundred Sorcerer Essences, and I'll help you restore your governing souls. How does it sound?"

In order to prove his credibility, the Demon-Hunter flashed the Rank-1 Honor Badge on his sorcerer's robe, his face cheerful and amused.

Grimm ignored the old sorcerer. He squatted on the ground, pondering on his bizarre encounters.

A thought suddenly struck him. He lifted his head abruptly.

"Destiny! The thing this world lacks is the cruel destiny of the endless world, that's why everything in this world seems to be revolving around me without any objective relations, hence, this so-called 'wonderful world' is created."

Grimm raised to his feet.

"How am I supposed to leave this Spectral World? It is as if I am cursed by the mind control sorcery under the Spectral Law."

"Sigh… Well, there's only one way, the most primitive, stupid and fundamental method," Grimm relented.

Grimm took a deep breath, waved his Sabbatic Goat Staff and struck his own head.


"Grant me infinite knowledge, and I shall be as a fulcrum, to move the endless world!"
...
Sorcerer Continent—a world where sorcerers exist. Wielders of arcane knowledge. Masters of all elements. Sovereigns of space and time. These sorcerers governed the world with their unrivaled prowess. One day, a young man awakened into this world with his past forgotten and no place to call home. Follow along as Grimm, by relying on his luck and wit, tries to survive and advance in this unforgiving world. Entangled within the machinations of fate, political schemes, power struggles, and wars, he forges his own path and creates a place for himself.

Su Yang had obtained the brick when he first moved to the neighborhood. The moment his eyes had landed on the brick, he felt like he was connected with it, so he brought it home.
After that, the brick followed him into several 'conquests'. Wherever Su Yang went, the brick followed. It helped him complete the missions of saving damsels in distress and even brought the evil villains to justice.
Actually, all of that was made up in Su Yang's mind. The brick was just a normal brick that he had picked up near a construction site.
However, he might be able to add some intellect to the brick, similar to what had happened to the little twig monster, Gru. It was a dead twig, for God's sake!
With that in mind, Su Yang made up his mind and added the newly acquired Random Point to the brick.
Based on his previous experience, Su Yang washed his hands with soap carefully in the bathroom. He made sure that his hands were as fragrant as a flower before he went back to his desk to pick the brick up.
He opened the Point System and a translucent [+] icon appeared at the top right corner.
Praying hard, Su Yang tapped on the icon.
Just like every other time, the brick gleamed and the point was added.
The brick did not change in terms of appearance. Su Yang felt that it was strange. Did the point-adding fail this time? However, even if it did, there should have been some changes, or at least, an explanation should have been provided.
Just when he started to wonder, a translucent window appeared above the brick.
[Brick +1: Special ability acquired. Appraise?]
A special ability? Another special ability again!?
Excited, Su Yang pressed [Yes].
Right away, the description of the brick changed.
[Lucky Disfiguring Brick]
[Ability: Smash your face with the brick. The harder you smash it, the luckier you will get]
[Limit: Limited to one use per month and the luck will only last for 30 minutes.]
[Remark: Come on! Break your head, young man!]
Soo Yang was rendered speechless once more. 
'What the…? Is this lousy ability trying to kill me?'
Even if he smashed his own face, the luck could only last for 30 minutes and it could only be used once per month. This lousy ability could only be treated as a last resort and could not be frequently!
With that in mind, Su Yang decided to keep the brick away and only bring it out when he truly needed it. Of course, he would not want to use the brick for the rest of his life. His face was quite valuable after all.
After he put the brick away, Su Yang looked at Gru who was still dancing to the music. The little fellow was really lucky.
Su Yang had added points to more than a dozen items and the special effect [Life Evolution] had only appeared once for the dead twig, so its birth on this earth was actually a blessing from the earth itself.
Su Yang stretched his body after he was done being sentimental with Gru. He stood up and wanted to wash up, but when he turned around, he saw the bag on the floor.
His expression instantly turned heavy.
'Sh*t, I forgot I still have to copy the lecture notes…'
He opened his bag and took the straight-A student's notes to have a look, but after a few pages, he felt sleepy and wanted to go to bed.
'Why don't I start tomorrow since Chu Xia has already bought me another week? No matter how long I have, I still have to copy it on my own. I really don't want to. If only someone could help me…'
With that in mind, his gaze unintentionally shifted to the waving Gru. His eyes gleamed. 
'Hmm, since Gru is a little monster, maybe it can help me copy the notes…'
Su Yang placed the notes beside Gru and pointed at the words. "Gru, do you know how to copy things?"
The dancing twig stopped moving and a tiny spout stretched out to scratch its head. "Gru, Gru?"
Judging from its looks, it could not understand what Su Yang said. However, Su Yang sharply noticed a second of delay in its reaction. With a twist in his thoughts, he tried to bribe the twig. "If you help me copy the notes, I'll give you a packet of milk."
"Gru!" Gru instantly put its sprout above its head and saluted him.
'This little twig! I knew it was trying to play dumb. [Simple Intellect] is its description, huh? Hmph…'
The deal was made. Su Yang grabbed a packet of milk from the box under his bed. He cut it open and watered it over Gru's head.
"Gru! Gru!" Its two little sprouts were wiggling happily as it joyfully absorbed the milk.
Su Yang accidentally discovered Gru's love for taking a milk bath. A little black withered twig was somehow living better than a delicate woman.
After the milk bath was over, Gru curled its sprout around Su Yang's pen and flipped the straight-A student's notes open and Su Yang's notebook. The copying process then started.
When the pen started to write, its handwriting was exactly like Su Yang's. 
'This little b*stard was really hiding something…'
The lecture notes were settled and Su Yang happily went to brush his teeth before he threw himself on the bed. The scratching of the ball pen writing on paper sounded like a lullaby as he slowly fell asleep.
The next morning when Su Yang woke up, he noticed a stack of notes arranged neatly on his desk. 
Gru was asleep beside it. He knew it was asleep because whenever the twig was sleeping, it would mumble its name with bubbles coming out of a fish's mouth, "Gru, Gru…"
Su Yang picked up the stack of notes and went through it. He originally planned to copy only several pages of that particular class, but he forgot to tell Gru about it. The little fella copied the entire stack in a night!
His packet of milk was extremely worth it! Since Gru worked hard for this, Su Yang did not want to procrastinate anymore. He planned to visit Old Zhou later today.
Even though Chu Xia had pleaded on his behalf, he still had to complete the work on time, especially after Gru did an amazing job.
After his breakfast, Su Yang checked his timetable and realized that he had an English class in the morning. Unfortunately, it was Qu Xiaomeng's English class. Based on what Chu Xia told him yesterday, the dorky lecturer was asking about him, so it would be better for him to attend the class.
However, the class was at 10 a.m., so he was in no hurry. He could see Old Zhou first before the class.
Su Yang tidied up his things and put the notes in his bag before he headed to campus to meet Old Zhou as planned.
Old Zhou was usually in the office of the faculty building. Unlike other lecturers, even if he did not have class in the morning, he would still go to the campus early in the morning and spend time in his office.
The girls in class even gossipped about him. They said that Old Zhou had married his wife through an arranged marriage and that they did not love each other and always argued.
The rumor was not entirely groundless either because several students had caught a glimpse of Old Zhou smoking at the entrance of his apartment before he headed home with a dismal expression as though he was going to meet his end.
Standing outside Old Zhou's office, Su Yang knocked on the door and Old Zhou's firm voice came from within. "Come in."
Su Yang opened the door and saw Old Zhou reading the Shanghai Morning newspaper with his glasses on. He greeted the lecturer, "Mr. Zhou."
Old Zhou lowered his glasses and glanced over at him. "Oh, Su Yang, come here."
Su Yang walked over. He opened his bag and planned to hand the notes in, but Old Zhou gestured for him to wait and he started another topic, "I heard about what you've been going through lately."
Su Yang's hand froze in his bag as a big question mark hung over his face. "Excuse me?"


Su Yang was an average university student in Shanghai when he received a system that allowed him to add points to things. The point system provided him with missions and by clearing them, he would gain points. 
Add a point into an object, the object will receive a special ability; add a point into a plant, the plant will come alive; add points on himself, he will get talents or superpowers.
With the mysterious point system in hand, Su Yang aimed to become rich and alter his fate. On his path towards success, he encountered many interesting matters and people, including famous actresses and business tycoons. Fueled by determination, Su Yang set his sight on adding points into all things to help him achieve his goal. 


"What the hell! This... you called...you tell us The Shack? What kind of shack is this? The luxurious one or what?"

Danny keep on rambling and mumbling non-stop! Too much unbelievable-ly faces he put out for us. Smiling and laughing like a crazy person. Himself showed much like a Po the panda but double excited compared to the cartoon character.

For both of us, Romeo especially... didn't feel a thing right now because at first he was like Danny but I could say...much worse than that and now...he was neutral. 

So much to be seen so nothing special about this place for him anymore. I guess so...

But he still fascinating about the open pool! How much he love the scenery from the shack's pool area. 

Well, the rectangle pool was built to face the sea and actually...used the ocean itself as the source for bathing. The pool elegently designed slantly facing the ocean. When lower tide, the pool were fill till the edge of the dark glass (the body of the pool not the tiles) but when the high tide, it's simply to said overflowing with the current. What a perfect view of sunrise and sunset!

The shack built-in near much to the shore line actually more to filled of coral reefs and fish habitats, hidden from the wild wave of the open ocean. The enclosed bay area makes the water a little bit calmer than the wide open sea and thus avoids from any danger, so far...

The house is also equipped with the latest disaster warning system to provide residents with the opportunity to save themselves as well as essential items from disaster, literally.

What a perfect house, right!

"Can I stay with you here?" Danny making a cute face to me making me stop narrating about the house.

"Nope!" I reply it with flat tone.

"Can we have a family meal once a while here?" another attempt.

"Maybe..."

"Can we hang out here when you feel bored..." the third.

"Perhaps?" I keep on teasing him.

"Can—"

"Enough with all that, Dan! We can rest out our head at the pool. The scenery...beyond comparison, dude!" say Romeo elbowing Danny's rib.

"And will you stop hurting my body? It's hurt like a b***h, bro! Was you sharpened your elbow this time?" Danny gave Romeo his usual stupid faces.

I let out small chuckled and unlocked the main door.

Taraaa!!!

Here we go again!

Bamboos everywhere in it's glory neutral golden colour, spread organize-ly everywhere. Then, came with off white in colour of every piece of clothing including curtain, sofa cover... everything with the trace of tiny flowers in gold. Then with wooden crafted furniture and accessories.

Did I mentioned about bamboos? Yeah... bamboos and rattan art handicrafts mostly in the house. Lady boss exclaimed with more like authentic Asian style. Hmm...I couldn't agreed more to her saying.

It's also completed with soft rugs everywhere. For me, it's kind of plain but comfortable one and I did love it. The house itself not to big and not to small because boss and his lady always be with themselves not having any children and happy with it.

They did pregnant but all of four times were being miscarriages. Then, lady boss aka my aunt did gave up and my uncle just gone with that. He doesn't want to see his wife struggling to have a baby and really wants to see the wife happy of what they have. 

If God really want them to have a baby...it will and if not...keep going with our life and be happy with anything surrounding us. Making our own mesmerizing memories and etc. That's what my uncle said it to me and leaving me with very thoughtful mental notes.

—You can create the dreams but in the end you got to chase the reality because it's everything. Dreams can be created to the reality but reality can never changed into a single dream, that's nothing!—

Back to the house...

Much the colourful decoration came in the form of tapestries, wallflower, picture frames and other geometrical accessories.

"Wow... beautiful! Last time I checked none of this existed! What happened actually, babe?"

Romeo's eyes wandering everywhere. While Danny ooh-ing and ahh-ing with every single items he sees.

Romeo was right, it's really captivating my eyes about how the minimalist it's look from the colour scheme but too luxury about the stuff here.

"I don't know...maybe they pay someone to change all this to new looks. I don't know..."

We walked to the kitchen and found a envelope attached on the fridge got magnetic with cute little baby faces magnet.

To my lovely niece from us boss & the lady *love* *love*

That's what it written on the envelope with bright red love shape in marker pen. The smell still strong.

From the writing I could knew that that was from the lady! I did recognised her writing style because she's a left-handed person.

"Open it!" Danny hurrying me up to open the A5 size white envelope.

There...her writings again.

"Read it!" Romeo nudge me on my elbow, rushing me to read the letter.

I opened the half folded foolscap paper with a few pages! 

Wow, such a long notes for me.
          ____________&____________
**my dear cutie pie,

I know you've already 30++ in your age but I do love to called you cutie pie because I like it. It doesn't matter because once you read the letter, the shack is yours!

Yeay!!!

It's not crazy but...the truth!

Your boss really wants you to have this because we're no longer need it. Actually, we're not going back there anymore for this...hah! Just kidding!

We will be back but not sooner but will be... we decided to let you run yourself to this very journey. Make your own life and don't worried about us. Worried about yourself, instead.

Value every time you have with others and binds the bonds tightly. We will watching you from afar but for the crucial time...we will be by your side. Just know that we love you so damn much!

I love you my favourite daughter! My niece! My little one!

Be whatever you wanted to be...

Okay...we got to go now!

We will see you soon

We love you!

The lady & the boss 
*kiss* *kiss*

PS: your favourite staff hidden in the fridge. Dig in!***
          ___________&___________

I smiled throughout the letter.

My favourite aunt truly funny on expressing her feeling for me because only me she could be like that NOT on to anyone else. Never!

"Wow...babe! It's yours!" Danny clapping and jumping like a kindergarten child right now. I chuckled getting with his antics and Romeo hug my shoulder when I read the letter.

"Congratulations! We should having some eating festive here to welcome you right? That's sounds fun!" Romeo gave me widely smile.

My heart fluttering and overwhelmed filling in my system. I have never thought about all this and of course never asked to have all this just for myself. It's too much!

"Hey...you should be happy, babe. Why are you crying?" Romeo concerned and take a step back before placing both his straight hands on my shoulders. He facing me.

"This is a happy tears...but it's all in here. I don't know what to say..." the dam broke even more. I cried because the feeling mixed up together.

I did happy but sad because both my uncle and Aunt not here.

I did happy but both my parents no longer here to celebrate with me.

I did happy because my most favourite person always be here but I felt empty instantly when they leave me alone get back to their life.

Got everything swirling in togetherness. 

Romeo removed the tears. He hugged me and patting my back without saying a word and I felt another pressure on my back. I know, Danny hugging me too.

We all silence and I still shed my tears until I hiccuping. Soon, the tears stopped and I composed myself back. 

"There she goes...feeling content now?" Danny released me from his embraces. So as Romeo.

I nodded, "Yeah—thanks!".

I swept away my tear's trailing down my faces and smiling- hiccuping towards them both.

She has got plenty of summon 'love' letters whenever she was finishing her shipments delivery. All the love letters including her traffic errors by the speed driving, dangerously driving, the red light, and so on. Not to mention about the truck condition when she was having her hand on the 'wheel'; severed scratches, slightly dented almost making her boss losing his mind about her recklessness. 

But, nevertheless she was the only female that always done with the job perfectly. How did she managed it all along her reckless driving? 

No idea...

She was a bit crazy and huge fan of sillyness. Be friends with Romeo and Danny did makes her even more silly about everything. Talha, he never stopped hitting on her...

The triplets really annoying her to the core! Their life style really suffocating her especially they happily making her their private maid. The Hibiscus, their mother never like her or she loathe her very damn much and can't wait to let her vanish forever.

Then, came a guy keep on disturbing her whenever he likes and at the same time, her memories that she kept hidden slowly resurfaces when another man approaching her to gain her interest. He wants to bring her home after he saw her for the first time!

"That is my life. I will live with her not you so I know what I'm doing. Stop pestering me about suitable or not she is to me because look at yourself...*scoff* you are still alone...oops...a divorcee...hope you got it! Now move!"

Oh my...just because of Didie, I'm talking this much? I thought I think to much...weird!

There were someone who doesn't want to be discovered but something happened and she...came out from her true 'hiding'...

Diddy Aulia (Didie Owl-lia)- the silly girl.
Daniel Zackery @ Z- the biggest scoundrel.
The Master @ Jace Damon- her previous master.
Hibiscus- the lady who always desperate!
The triplets- Orchid, Poppy and Lily; whatever!
The friends- Romeo, Danny and Talha; very rarest human being.
'She'- claiming what was belong to her. Full of secret! Did she?

"..."

Little did she know, the baby girl guy came into her life after a year of her previous 'love' events. With simple text of messages, at first she's just ignored it but it turn out to be something serious from time to time.

"Hey, baby girl!"

"I miss you baby girl and hope to see you again!"

Her life became a mess because of her own imaginary love, the unexpected swarming of the crowdness at the same time...they all required something that belong to her...

Her self either to be love, to be hate, to be died or to be kept...

Everything turn upside down and she was once again experiencing her previous life fully...another dark episode clouding above her life waiting for the thunderstorms of trouble to resurface once again leaving her wet dangerously of her misery that she had to endured.

"I just wanted to be in a simple relationship with a simple man. Love could combine us all but looks like...love have to fight much stronger than the other..."- Didie Aulia.

So hard to be amongst the lovely feeling calls LOVE...
