Hari ini adalah hari yang sangat menyenangkan bagi Tommy Ludwinsky dan seorang nenek angkatnya, Maria, karena hari ini Tommy diwisuda. Perjuangan Maria tidak sia-sia dalam mendidik Tommy setelah diadopsi dari sebuah panti asuhan demi tidak ingin masuk ke panti jompo dan menemaninya selama sisa hidupnya dengan menikmati bersama kekayaan melimpah Almarhum suaminya, Pieter. Semua mata yang mengikuti acara wisuda di sebuah Universitas ternama dibelalakkan oleh Maria lantaran hanya dirinya saja di antara mereka yang berusia 75 tahun dan masih sehat bugar dengan daya ingat yang masih tajam dan bicaranya masih lancar dan tegas. Namun, punggung Maria mulai bungkuk sedikit dan jalannya agak melambat sejak dua tahun terakhir yang lalu. Mengenai rambutnya, nyaris putih semua. Tommy termasuk anak yang berbakti kepada orang yang mendidiknya. Seorang pemuda yang berhasil menggenggam gelar Sarjana Jurnalistik dan penyuka fotografi itu tidak ingin membuat kedua orang tuanya yang sudah tiada akibat sebuah kecelakaan mobil 13 tahun silam dan seorang nenek yang sangat berjasa dalam hidupnya itu kecewa. Tommy telah menyadarinya bahwa menuntut ilmu pengetahuan sangatlah penting sebagai bekal dalam menjalani kehidupan daripada kekayaan yang melimpah. Karena ketekunannya belajar, penyuka buku-buku bacaan tentang Fotografi, Pengembangan Diri, Psikologi, dan Ensiklopedia itu lulus dengan pujian. 
 Setelah acara wisuda selesai, Tommy menemui nenek angkatnya di sebuah kursi khusus hadirin. Maria sangat bangga kepadanya, karena Tommy telah berhasil lulus dari sebuah Universitas terfavorit dan tersohor di Negaranya. Selama mengikuti acara wisuda itu, Maria sempat meneteskan air mata dan bibirnya tak henti-hentinya mengucap syukur atas keberhasilannya Tommy menggondol gelar Sarjana Jurnalistik dengan predikat lulus dengan pujian. Tommy memeluk erat nenek angkatnya dan menciumi kedua pipinya berkali-kali.
 "Terima kasih banyak ya nek selama ini telah mendidik saya. Tanpa nenek, bisa dipastika hidup saya tidak ada artinya lagi. Saya sudah tidak memiliki siapapun di dunia ini, kecuali nenek." ucap Tommy yang masih memeluk erat nenek angkatnya, lalu mencium pipi kanannya cukup lama kira-kira satu menit. Kedua mata Maria sekarang berkaca-kaca, karena sangat terharu. Beberapa orang tua dan perwakilan wisudawan dan wisudawati sejenak melihat Tommy memeluk nenek angkatnya, lalu mereka tersenyum-senyum. 
 "Oh my God, lepaskan aku, Tommy! Aku bisa tidak bisa bernafas! Sudah cukup kamu memelukku!" keluh Maria. 
 "Maafkan saya, nek." ucap Tommy sambil melepaskan pelukannya, lalu tersenyum. 
 "Baiklah. Aku maafkan kamu. Tapi kalau kamu ulangi lagi, aku tidak akan memasakkan untukmu makanan-makanan kesukaanmu. Ingat itu." kata nenek angkatnya dengan setengah serius dan setengah bercanda. Kemudian, nenek angkatnya mengusap-usap air mata di kedua matanya dengan sebuah sapu tangan hasil karya rajutannya seminggu lalu. Tommy tersenyum-senyum. 
 "Oke, nek. Saya janji tidak akan mengulangi lagi." jawab Tommy serius. Tommy tidak ingin membuatnya marah.  
 "Apa nenek senang?" tanya Tommy dengan menyunggingkan senyumnya. Maria sekarang duduk di kursinya lagi tanpa melihat Tommy, lalu menghembuskan nafas agak panjang. 
 "Nek..?" tanya Tommy lagi. "Apa nenek baik-baik saja?" 
 "Iya aku senang. Mari kita pulang." jawab Maria agak dingin. Seorang nenek yang sangat cerdas dan hobi masak itu sekarang tidak mau mengungkapkan perasaan bangganya kepada seorang pemuda berusia 23 tahun itu atas keberhasilannya lulus dengan predikat Pujian, karena dia tidak ingin berlebih-lebihan mengatakannya. 
 "Baik, nek." jawab Tommy sambil memegang salah satu tangan nenek angkatnya itu untuk berdiri. Tommy masih memakai pakaian wisuda.
 "Jangan membantuku berdiri. Aku masih kuat." kata Maria. Tommy dan Maria sekarang berjalan beriringan keluar dari gedung wisuda menuju ke mobilnya yang diparkir di halaman parkir di dekat gedung itu. Karena takut terjatuh, Tommy berjalan dengan memegang lengannya yang tak bertongkat.  
 "Nek, boleh saya ngomong sesuatu?" tanya Tommy. Maria berhenti berjalan, lalu menoleh ke Tommy. 
 "Katakanlah sekarang apa yang ingin kamu sampaikan." jawab Maria agak dingin. Tommy menunduk. 
 "Bolehkah saya mampir ke makam kedua orang tua saya sebelum pulang?" tanya Tommy. Kedua mata Tommy mulai berkaca-kaca. 
 "Baiklah. Tapi jangan terlalu lama berdoa." Maria mengabulkan permintaan Tommy. 
 "Terima kasih banyak, nek." ucap Tommy, lalu mencium kepala nenek angkatnya itu. 
 "Ingat, jangan memeluk lagi!" ancam Maria dengan setengah serius dan setengah bercanda. 
 "Pelukan kamu erat sekali." katanya. 
 "Baik, nek!" jawab Tommy dengan tersenyum. 
 "Apa ada lagi yang ingin kamu katakan?" tanya Maria. 
 "Eehhmm...tidak ada, nek." jawab penyuka makanan serba kentang itu dengan mengangguk. Setelah itu, tidak beberapa lama kemudian, seorang wisudawati yang masih memakai pakaian wisudanya sedang tidak sengaja menabrak Tommy dari arah samping kiri. Hampir saja Tommy terjatuh kalau saja tadi dia tidak menahan tubuhnya. Dia tengah terburu-buru menuju ke Ibu dan adiknya yang sedang bersiap-siap pulang dengan mobilnya. Dia tadi izin kepada Ibunya ke toilet. Karena Ibunya sebentar lagi ada acara kumpul bareng dengan teman-teman sebayanya, Ibunya juga terburu-buru. 
 "Maaf aku tak sengaja. Aku sangat terburu-buru." ucap gadis itu yang bernama Agnes. Nenek angkatnya Tommy hanya diam melihat gadis itu saja. Dia juga tidak tahu kalau Agnes tiba-tiba menabrak anak angkatnya itu.
 "Tidak apa-apa." jawab Tommy singkat.
 "Terima kasih." ucap Agnes, lalu berlari lagi menuju ke Ibunya yang sekarang sedang membunyikan klakson mobilnya berkali-kali. Pandangan Tommy dan Maria pun tertuju ke Agnes yang sedang berlari menuju ke mobilnya. Jarak antara Agnes dan mobilnya kira-kira 15 meteran. 
 "Cantik sekali gadis itu." puji Maria. Tommy diam.
 "Bagaimana menurutmu, Tom?" tanyanya. 
 "Iya, nek." jawabnya dengan tergopoh. Raut muka Tommy terlihat tegang sekali dan serius sepertinya sedang memikirkan sesuatu. Jawabannya Tommy datar. 
 "Perasaanku mengatakan kalau dia nanti akan dekat dengan kamu." kata Maria, lalu mulai berjalan mendekati mobilnya yang berjarak kira-kira sepuluh meteran darinya. Tommy segera memegang lengannya lagi yang tak bertongkat dengan tangan kanannya dan mulai berjalan mengiringinya. 
 "Kenapa kamu diam saja, Tom?" tanya Maria. "Apa yang sedang kamu pikirkan sekarang?" 
 "Ehmm...saya tadi sedang memikirkan seberapa persen nenek yakin." jawab Tommy membohonginya padahal Tommy tadi memikirkan bagaimana nasib dirinya nanti dengan ijazah yang telah didapatkannya dari Universitas. Tommy sangat mengkuatirkan dirinya tidak mendapatkan pekerjaan yang layak sesuai dengan bidang yang telah digelutinya selama empat tahun di Universitas.
 "Kamu membohongiku, Tom." jawab Maria. Tommy segera terdiam dan menunduk.
 "Aku tahu kamu sedang mengkuatirkan sesuatu. Aku tidak ingin mengatakannya sekarang. Aku biarkan kamu mengatasi sendiri kekuatiranmu itu." sambungnya.
 "Baik, nek." kata Tommy kalem. Apa yang sedang dikuatirkan Tommy saat ini sudah ditebak nenek angkatnya. Tommy sekarang bertekad dalam hatinya berusaha keras menemukannya nanti. Nenek angkatnya sengaja melatih Tommy mandiri. Tidak beberapa lama kemudian, Tommy membukakan pintu mobil milik nenek angkatnya itu peninggalan Almarhum suaminya. Setelah itu, Tommy menuju ke pintu mobil satunya untuk mengemudikannya. Sekitar 5 menit kemudian, mobil itu berjalan menuju ke makam kedua orang tuanya sebelum pulang. Tommy masih memakai pakaian wisudanya sama seperti wisudawan dan wisudawati lainnya. Hal itu dikarenakan ada rasa bangga bisa lulus dari Universitas terfavorit itu. 
"Apa kamu ingin tahu berapa persen kamu dan gadis tadi nanti bersama?" tanya nenek angkatnya sambil mulai membuka sebuah novel karya seorang penulis terkenal di Negaranya yang akan dibacanya melanjutkan semalam selalu menjelang tidur. Tommy masih memikirkan nasibnya nanti apabila tidak mendapatkan pekerjaan sesuai dengan bidangnya sambil menyetir. Tommy sangat kuatir tidak sukses.
"Oh iya, nek." jawab Tommy dengan tergopoh. Dahi Tommy mengeluarkan keringat dingin. 
"Apa kamu baik-baik saja, Tom?" tanya Maria dengan menoleh ke Tommy. Baru saja nenek angkatnya itu membaca novelnya dua kalimat. Karena telah mendengar jawaban anak angkatnya itu dengan nada kurang baik terdengar di telinganya, dia berhenti membaca sejenak. 
"Iya, nek. Saya baik-baik saja. Nenek tidak perlu kuatir." jawab Tommy dengan terbata-bata. Setelah itu, Tommy mengusap-usap keringat dingin di dahinya dengan lengannya. 
"Apa yang kamu kuatirkan?" tanya Maria untuk menguji Tommy apakah berani mengatakannya dengan jujur kepadanya. 
"Eehhmm..tidak ada, nek." jawab Tommy. Maria menggelengkan kepalanya.
"Kamu payah sekali." katanya.
"Bila kamu nanti tidak menemukan pekerjaan sesuai dengan bidangmu, nenek oke-oke saja." kata Maria, lalu mulai membaca lagi.
"Iya, nek." jawab Tommy, lalu menghembuskan nafas agak panjang. 
"Nenek yakin kamu pasti bisa bila kamu berusaha." kata Maria sambil membalik satu lembar halaman novel yang barusan selesai dibacanya. Kecepatan membaca Maria masih lumayan tinggi. 
"Saya pasti akan berusaha sekuat tenaga, nek." jawab Tommy. Sepuluh menit lagi Tommy dan nenek angkatnya tiba di rumah. Tommy mengendarai mobil dengan kecepatan sedang. 
"Apa kamu sudah punya pacar?" tanyanya sambil membalik satu lembar novel yang barusan selesai dibacanya. 
"Belum, nek." jawab Tommy dengan menyunggingkan senyum.
"Sudah aku duga sebelumnya." katanya. Tommy diam.
"Kamu kurang memperhatikan perempuan." sambungnya sambil membalik satu lembar novel yang barusan selesai dibacanya. Novel yang sedang dibaca Maria tebalnya 650an halaman. Sekarang Maria sedang membaca halaman 315. Seorang nenek juga penyuka berkebun itu sudah satu minggu ini membaca novel itu. Bila waktu senggang, dia menyempatkan diri untuk membacanya dan selalu dibawanya ke mana-mana, termasuk menunggu antrian di bank dan belanja. 
"Saya lebih mementingkan belajar daripada perempuan, nek." elak Tommy. 
"Tapi kamu bisa mencuri waktu untuk menemukan seorang perempuan yang tepat untuk mendampingimu kelak." jawab Maria sambil menutup novelnya. Maria menatap Tommy dengan serius. 
"Saya masih belum mau memikirkannya, nek." kata Tommy. 
"Mulai sekarang kamu harus belajar menemukannya." perintahnya dengan tegas. Tommy terdiam. 
"Nenek ingin anak-anak kamu di rumah." katanya dengan tegas lagi. Pandangannya masih belum terlepas ke Tommy. 
"Baik, nek." jawab Tommy kurang serius. 
"Nenek sudah punya pilihan terbaik untukmu." katanya dengan tersenyum. 
"Siapa itu, nek?" tanya Tommy sangat terkejut, karena nenek angkatnya itu tiba-tiba memberitahukannya seperti itu. Tommy merasa selama bersamanya jarang sekali menjumpai nenek angkatnya itu akrab dengan seorang gadis. 
"Gadis yang tidak sengaja menabrak kamu tadi." jawabnya dengan tersenyum. Pandangan Maria masih belum terlepas ke Tommy. 
"Bagaimana bisa nenek mengatakan seperti itu? Nenek baru saja menjumpainya." tanya Tommy dengan agak terbata-bata karena sangat terkejut. 
"Perasaan nenek mengatakan kalau gadis itu cocok denganmu." jawabnya.
"Tidak, nek. Saya tidak mengenalnya." kata Tommy. 
"Mungkin saja dia sudah menikah. Bertunangan. Punya pacar, nek. Perempuan secantik dia pasti sudah." sambung Tommy. 
"Kamu selalu terlalu cepat memutuskan sesuatu, Tom." katanya.
"Nenek sangat benci itu." sambungnya. Tommy terdiam. 
"Tadi kamu mengkuatirkan masa depanmu kan?" tanyanya. Pandangan Maria masih belum terlepas ke Tommy. Tommy terdiam. 
"Padahal kamu belum berusaha sekuat tenaga mendapatkannya." katanya.
"Jadi, saya harus bagaimana kepada perempuan itu, nek?" tanya Tommy sambil menghentikan mobil di depan halaman rumah yang sejak selesai diwisuda dikendarainya. 
"Bila kamu bertemu dengan dia, ajak dia berkenalan." perintah nenek angkatnya. 
"Baik, nek." sanggup Tommy kurang serius sambil melepas sabuk pengamannya. 
"Kamu kurang serius, Tom." kata nenek angkatnya yang pandangannya belum terlepas ke Tommy. Nenek angkatnya itu belum melepas sabuk pengamannya. 
"Iya, nek. Tommy mengerti." jawab Tommy. 
"Gadis tadi sangat spesial buat nenek." katanya.
"Nenek tidak keluar?" tanya Tommy berhenti sejenak membuka pintu mobil untuk keluar. 
"Ayo dong, nek. Tommy sangat lapar nih." kata Tommy. Pandangan Maria masih belum terlepas ke Tommy. Maria terdiam. Tommy segera menutup pintu mobil, lalu berjalan menuju ke Maria untuk membuka pintunya dan menolongnya membuka sabuk pengaman. 
"Apa kamu berjanji kepadaku untuk mendekati gadis itu bila bertemu?" tanyanya. 
"Tommy berjanji, nek." jawab Tommy sambil membantu melepas sabuk pengamannya Maria yang masih melilit tubuhnya dengan cukup kencang. Setelah berada di dalam rumah, Tommy langsung membuka kulkas untuk mengambil sisa roti kejunya semalam dan segelas susu sebagai pengganjal perutnya sementara ini tanpa mencopot pakaian wisudanya. Tommy menikmatinya dengan menonton tivi. Nenek angkatnya segera ke dapur untuk memasak makanan dari kentang, kesukaannya Tommy. Satu jam kemudian, masakannya matang. Maria membangunkan Tommy untuk makan malam bersama di ruang makan. Selama nenek angkatnya itu memasak, Tommy ketiduran di sofa dan tivinya masih menyala. Tommy sangat capek dan pakaian wisudanya belum dilepas. Di saat makan malam bersama, Maria lebih banyak memberitahukan Tommy soal tipe-tipe perempuan yang layak dijadikan istri berdasarkan pengetahuannya dari novel-novel yang dibacanya. Tommy lebih banyak mendengarkannya baik-baik daripada bertanya. Di malam harinya, Tommy mencari informasi-informasi tentang perusahaan-perusahaan dan kantor-kantor yang akan dilamarnya. Setelah itu, Tommy membuat surat-surat lamaran kerja. Ketika Tommy mengerjakan hal-hal itu, Maria melanjutkan membaca novel di meja bacanya di dalam kamarnya dengan ditemani segelas susu hangat dan tiga iris roti tawar yang masing-masing sudah diolesi dengan selai stroberi, kesukaannya.

Ever since Milia came back from the hospital with her parents, she is busy with doing the household chores and taking care of her sister. She has no time to sit and grieve over her break-up with Stephen. Inorder to remain fit and fine, she works out everyday at gym. She spends one hour practising yoga in the morning and one hour of zumba in the evening. She has started to treat herself better and better, she is now a free bird. Earlier she couldn't figure out how and what to do but now that she doesn't have to bother herself with her boyfriend's work, she utilises all of her time very well. Amongst the positive changes in her routine, there's one major thing that has been affected negatively. Milia, a cheerful, fun-loving and a hard working girl now has no emotions on her face. Her eyes are cold and distant, she has a fake faint smile on her face and her heart is locked. The doors of her heart are closed by her. Just no one now could try to open them. If anyone tried it would be the end of them. 

In a dark room, a pair of distant eyes stared at the computer screen and lips pursed into a thin line. All serious and focused. The sound of fingers on the keyboard was heard. The speed seemed fast as lightning.  (okay.. Dear readers. Not every male lead of a novel is supposed to be a CEO, a successful actor, a politician or a person with authority.) The handsome guy who was about 1.79m tall was playing football with his friends online. He won the first match, lost the second and this game was the decision maker. His expression was the same and the movements consistent, after almost half an hour he won the match.
"Yeahhhh! I won it.! I knew it!" he exclaimed happily… His face contained a carefree smile, his eyes squinted and his face gleamed of happiness. He was much more innocent than other boys of his age. His life revolved around his sister, his parents, his friends and one girl (his longtime crush).

It's said that if a crush exceeds more than four months then it's no longer a crush but you've fallen in love with them. He had a crush on Maria. Maria is his best friend. She is one fun loving girl and believes in enjoying every minute of life. She wasn't innocent enough to be unable to see that Justin loved her. She had some fleeting feelings for him which soon vanished(oh! I forgot to tell you that Justin is the same guy who was playing football online) Justin was very scared of losing her, and thus he couldn't confess his feelings to her for a long time. He distanced himself from her, didn't answer her calls, ignored her messages, never let any chance encounters happen. This went on for another 6 months. When he finally decided to propose to her he came to know that Maria is in a relationship with someone for the past two months. He felt everything falling apart. He couldn't bring himself to accept it. He soon locked himself from the truth and kept on believing that Maria will come back to him one day. 

Two years have passed, he still couldn't get over his feelings for her. Maria contacted him frequently and asked him to go lunch or for some outings with all friends. One day when Maria called him for the same, his frustration rose to peak and he confessed to Maria his feelings, "You know that I love you so why are you still in contact with me? When can you stop pretending to be unknown about my feelings? You clearly know I love you for 2 years still you treat me as a joke. You know what I love you, I hate myself for loving you. If only I treated you the way you treat me, you'd start to hate me. Maria! don't think that I don't know you very well." 

Confused? Whether Maria is innocent or not? The answer is not. The above things were all the first impressions Justin had. Maria did have a crush on Justin for some while. After some time, she met another guy who liked her. She then went on to date him while being good friends with Justin. Soon she found the guy she was dating as someone 'boring', she left him and went on with someone else. The cycle continued. Justin pretended to not know these things. He still wanted to love the innocent girl who ruled his heart, completely neglecting the fact that innocence was just a pretense and not her self. He didn't want to accept the reality. Maria loved the feeling Justin gave her, she used his feelings for her as something to show off to her friends. (God!!!!!! only if playing with feelings was considered a crime)

On one side is the mature, sensible but broken-hearted Milia and on the other is immature, fun-loving, being a person who always smiles but is broken-hearted Justin. They have one best friend in common and that is Ira. Ira is very good friends with Justin and Milia separately. She talks about Justin to Milia and vice-versa. Even though Justin and Milia never spoke to each other they knew about what's up with the other person. Justin knew that Milia was Ira's good friend. She is a hard-working girl, loves a person who was also his friend long back. Milia knew from her ex-boyfriend that Justin loved Maria, Ira���s good friend. 

Wait! Don't get confused dear readers.. Milia's ex-boyfriend was friends with Ira, Maria, Justin and others. Maria got to know Ira because of her ex-boyfriend and Justin knew Ira, Maria and Stephen because they shared the same tution class. 

My dear readers, this is a teen romance novel. Unlike the usual CEOs or the Doctors or Politician's love stories you must be reading. This is a story of high-school love. I guess almost everyone has met that one person who gave them butterflies in their stomach and giddy feeling whilst talking. Our high-school love is very pure and innocent. But today's generation under the bad influence of social media has dirtied the essence of the purity in love. This novel will take you through how kids of age 18 are experts at toying with feelings and live a guilt free life. This novel will also take you to the opposite side, where some broken-hearts don't necessarily fall in love again because they've lost faith in it. This novel will also take you through a journey of transformation. Transformation from being innocent and immature to being the most mature person, from a careless person to someone with the highest amount of responsibilities. 

Maria's good mood from before instantly disappeared once she took in the appearance of the boy who appeared from out of the shadows and appeared before her. He was cute, with a touch of handsomeness as you could tell that he was definitely going to grow up and be a very attractive man in the future. One should expect nothing less from the male lead a.k.a the crown prince of Astral.
Even though he was the male lead in a shoujo romance type novel, without the heroine, Maria could mistake him for a shounen male harem protagonist due to the number of girls that ridiculously fell for him. The temperature outside felt warm. A light breeze ruffled his raven hair; those cold piercing violet eyes of his were pointed in Maria's direction.
"...Y-Yo," Maria nervously greeted, saying the first thing that popped into her head; this greeting earned her an annoyed look from the crown prince.
"Idiot."
'Well screw you too, asshole!' fumed Maria as in her mind Dark Maria was flipping off the crown prince. Unable to sense Maria's anger, the Crown Prince a.k.a the future love interest of the female heroine and number one on Maria's list of Who to Avoid, turned his attention to another boy who stepped out from his hiding spot to stand beside him.
"So it's her, again. Earl Rosendrey's daughter who is low in IQ, annoying, unladylike, and straight-up... distasteful." This time, scrunching his face, expressing his dislike towards Maria, was yet another one of the future heroine's harem members and the crown prince's best friend, Gilbert Andersen.
Gilbert was the son of the Prime Minister. Right after he was born into this world his future was already set in stone and crafted by his father and that was to inherit his father's position and assist Alan when he comes to the throne. Similar to the crown prince, one could tell that this boy with navy blue hair, wearing black-framed glasses and possessing the features of a bishounen, would be highly sought after in the future.
The impression he left on Maria was not pleasant, someone she found just as annoying as the crown prince. He was a snobby, stuck-up, know it all but the fangirls, both in the novel and outside of it, found him so attractive that these flaws were ignored.
"Hey, four-eyes, stop saying those rude things about Maria!" Maria almost cried tears of joy when she saw the one who was sticking up for her was Mai.
'Mai! You sweet, sweet girl! You're a truly good friend. Don't worry, I'll bring you cookies for sticking up for me.' Mentally, Maria was shedding tears of happiness, healing the pain of those hurtful words that were thrown her way.
'Hey, I'm only human, and even though in the novels those transmigrated girls can walk it off, slapping the faces of others like a true OP boss, sadly to say, that's not me. I'm weak! So please stop bullying me for something the past Maria did!' silently begged Maria, who was having to deal with the troublesome people that the original Maria offended.
"Such an unpleasant girl dares to talk back to Gilbert-sama!? Can you not see how the presence of you two is ruining the crown prince's mood?" spoke a fierce and angry female voice. Deep down inside, Maria had a bad feeling that when she encountered the crown prince and his loyal sidekick that things would get worse. Why the heck did she have to go and jinx herself?!
In the garden by the fountain, Maria and Mai stood in front, while on their left stood the crown prince and four-eyes; appearing on their right were four girls that to Maria spelled double-trouble. Now, remember when Maria was talking about all those female rivals that were against the heroine and her relationship with the crown prince?
'Never knew I would meet the A-team so early in the beginning.' Standing proudly to the right were 4-S Beauties of Diamond Academy.
When it came to popularity, beauty, wealth, and status for girls here at Diamond Academy, at the top were the S4 Beauties, the 'S' standing for seasons, due to how each girl's appearance reminded people of a specific season. Starting first with Natsumi Summer, the one who spoke before and was currently glaring at both Mai and Maria in her red dress, embroidered with pink rose designs, arrogantly flipping her fiery pink-reddish-orange ombre tresses styled into a fancy high ponytail.
From what Maria recalled, Natsumi was written as overbearing and fierce like the unbearable sun during summer, the daughter of Marquess Leonard Summer and his wife, Marchioness Haruko.
"Crown Prince, please forgive these two's transgressions; even though they are in the wrong, it's not good to waste anger on those with low intelligence." This time speaking, using that sugary adorable voice of hers, was Lily Bloomdale. When looking at Lily, one couldn't help but be charmed by her gentle and moe appearance.
Seeing Lily in person, Maria understood how people were bewitched by those large lime-green gentle eyes. Long curly bangs framed her cute face, while the rest of her pale blonde hair was styled into twin thick braided buns, decorated with pink, yellow, and light green flowers.
Standing there under the moonlight like a cute fairy in her light yellow and pink frilly dress, Lily was the treasured and spoiled daughter of Earl Vidor Bloomdale and Countess Camilla.
"Is it just me, or is this the second time our intelligence was insulted?" Mai leaned over to whisper in Maria's ear.
"No, it's definitely not you," Maria calmly whispered back to her when a third girl began to speak.
"Crown Prince, Maria has always been an unintelligent and pushy girl. She lacks manners and should be avoided." This time downgrading Maria in public with her sharp words was Belle Autumn, the Beauty of Fall; the tone of her voice was not too harsh or soft. Belle was the type of girl who always appeared mature beyond her own age, holding herself as better than everybody else.
She earned the title of Beauty of Fall due to her chestnut brown wavy hair and apricot eyes, wearing an elegant dress that matched her eyes. Belle's father was Head of Magical Law Enforcement, one of the biggest departments in the Magic Bureau, while her mother came from an aristocratic family.
Standing on the side, constantly taking insults, it made Maria want to leave yet her feet were rooted to the ground. She definitely had nowhere to run when she saw the final and fourth member of the S4 Beauties make her way towards them as the closer that elegant figure got the more Maria understood why this girl had earned the title, Beauty of Winter.
"What is your relationship with Richard-sama?" demanded the frost princess. There was no hint of a smile on her face and being so close to her, Maria could've sworn she saw malice flash in this girl's eyes. Standing before her was Eira Snow, a girl who was known to never smile with words that cut sharp like ice.
She reminded Maria of an ice-princess with her pale skin, icy-blue eyes, and snow-white and pale blue ombre locks flowing down her back, wearing a pretty indigo and midnight-blue dress. The novel stated Eira's father was a powerful aristocrat, her mother also came from an aristocratic background but in her youth was a famous songstress signed under one of Astral's top talent agencies.
Eira idolized her mother and would later follow in her mother's footsteps by becoming a popular idol. At this question, Maria found herself speechless; from a side glance, Maria could see how this question caught the attention of both four-eyes and the crown prince.
Maria was beginning to think she was cursed with bad luck with all the things she had been encountering lately, especially when these four major beauties made their appearance. Which gave Maria a feeling that her life was not going to get easier.
Though neither of the S4 Beauties could actually stand each other, due to having feelings for the same man, they also could not stand Maria. Why? Simply because they found her actions and unruly ways annoying and disgraceful. The original Maria always did things in a loud, foolish, and bossy fashion and that was a huge 'no-no' for these primadonnas.
Things only got worse when it was obvious that the crown prince also did not like Maria, leaving the four to knock her down when in their crush's presence or ignore her like an outcast. The original Maria vainly looked up to these four primadonnas and always secretly wanted to be a part of their clique.
'Life, why must you hate me?'

One moment I'm chasing after a rabbit and the next, I'm falling down a rabbit hole! What the heck?! This ain't Alice in Wonderland?! Though as I opened my eyes, I soon found out that I was no longer in my original body and that somehow I transmigrated into the light novel, A Fairytale Romance. And that isn't all, the character whose body I transmigrated into... is none other than the minor stuck-up, arrogant, and selfless ojou-sama who was nothing more than a comic relief character. Life truly sucks...

Maria and her children look at the sphere each of the element signs light up opening a lock each person puts there finger inside hearing a loud click maria and david, Arthur, and Adrian feel there power draining until there is no more there fingers are removed and the disk teleports a loud crash comes into the room and Maria faints looking at the person who entered it was the principle "you foolish girl you have no idea what you have done," the principle said Maria was a bit dumb stricken and didn't understand "that sphere it's not just a universe unlocking or creating sphere it also gives abilities and it also takes abilities away you foolish uhh oh my god what's happening," she had said but it was too late maria and her kids turned brightly and disappeared

There was a girl who's complete shut-in and otaku— for all sorts of kind in  entertainments when it come into anime, manga/manhwa/ webtoon, games, drama, novels, creepypasta and so on. Unfortunately the terrorist attacked killed her while dining in prestigious restaurant. 

That how was my previous life go and goes in a blinked of eye. I do not have any idea how long it has been since those memories rushed in my mind without a warning. I stared at the familiar reflection in a mirror, blinking many times, a youth looking sixteenth years old with messy long black hair, crimson pair of eyes looking swollen from all night crying, average beautiful haggard face and  this worn out red colored medieval dress. It reminded me, I'm certainly the lady of a poor household named Maria Ebillish, the daughter of Lord Hellethe. 

I feel like swallowing hard against the knot inside of my falling stomach when a harsh realization slapped me. 

Because of a fact the world I'm living in are my own made novel tilted as I love you under thousands drops of snow, it's a romance story in fantasy world set in like medieval era where nobility and royalties are important role in the society. 

The protagonist is a beautiful kindhearted commoner who has majestic power which made her to study at the Mahika Academia and later on she fell in love with handsome crown prince. They fight alongside each other and became a very powerful married couple in the kingdom of Misterilia. On the other hand, those people who opposed them punished severely, for example a villainess character under the name of mine.

I, Maria is one of chosen villainess that bullied and trampled heroine's face. 

She loves the crown prince dearly and had done many ill natured acts. She was kicked out in the school then abandoned by her family. For her punishment, she is ordered to marry the certain cold hearted and black belly character known as Duke of Slendlock, the person who burned her alive to death. 

Which is me–notheneless! No way! As far I can remember, my personality is not that bad. I encountered the said heroine a lot and didn't have any memories of bullying her to extent.

Perhaps, I admonished her when it's about the crown prince's well being, and yet there I was hopelessly humiliated at the ball. The people charged me with threatening and plotting to kill the female for the sake of my unrequited love and a gravely crime of stealing the crown prince Red Ring crest.

I was abandoned by my family after hearing the scandal news. Our household lose face to nobility and His Emperial Majesty Ru Shang of Misterilia condemned me with a noble case to be exiled but Her Majesty the Empress who suggested another idea. 

It's marriage proposal for the infamous Duke. 

Without any title to hold, it's the only best option I can have to prevent myself living in different country or died from starvation at the cold streets of capital city. At first, I'm planning of using this duchy governor for oneself insurance, until today, the sudden thunder from a clear sky changed all of my uncalled ideas. Solemnly, I'm left wondering maybe if those memories are more triggered earlier in my younger years, there is possibility of changing the character's course. Then I'm not dropped to this position. 


However, it's too late to cry over spilled milk now. 

I'm a modern woman once and aristocrat lady from poor Earl's household at the present.


I know this wouldn't be easy in the start but there is no way I'll let myself to die or bullied from my own characters hand.


Shameless woman!
You wretch lady!
A villainess!
The witch!
Whore!
Crazy!
Fool!


All their insulting words echoed inside of my mind, those arrogant ladies, the noble jerks, the heroine, the handsome male lead, the royal family, and mob characters will pay a high-end check for retribution from 'Me' the creator of this novel. 

Just wait. They will bow down before me like pheasants. As for now, let's go with the flow of the water. 

It's been one week since I've arrived here and because of my pathetic first love heartbreaks. I shut myself inside this spacious room. Look, a mini living room set there, the writing desk with tall shelves of books behind, and then also the august bed right there with canopy attached. 

To say briefly, the whole space are decorated with all sorts of luxurious things from smallest to biggest. 


It's too fancy and too sophisticated for my liking. 

The Ebillish family are poor household, our nobility are twenty feet under the ground. 

I only had a small room there with important things such as books, papers as well training materials for my magic. 

Seeing the large space right now and with my memories of previous life living in crappy box apartment. 

I feel like my heartbeats filled of excitement bubbling up inside, so, without a warning my feet move and jumped myself on the bed. 

It's real, it's soft, it's genuine thing. Why I didn't noticed this before and I wonder how soft the famous in my previous world. Maybe it's more comfortable and loveable with a power of the technology. 

Too bad, I'm a poor artist there and this auntie cannot afford to buy it. When I came back to my senses, my eyes seemed heavy. I almost forgot in one week, I hide and cried inside this unfamiliar room. Even last night, for the crown prince and my family.

Ah. Here we go again. 

The feeling of sting and aching rose into my chest. No— I slapped my face hard with both hands and stands up looking fierce.There is no time for depression. Time of turning the page and move on. After dressing up myself with aesthetic red gown and simply braided my hair with little ornaments. I've decided to leave the room with confident. Once the door opened, a silent hallway greeted me. 

No one is around as I continued to wander my feet leaping down the grand stairs. The house interior was magnificently designed meeting my expectations of ancestral house like in the historical drama I had watched before. Every imposing curtains are tightly closed making the house dark and gloomy. 

Walking here in this place I started to think it's a serial killer living here. Where they secretly doing gruesome killing spree and hiding each  bodies of their victims somewhere like hidden rooms. I couldn't helped to curve my lips into smile with the scary thought.
 
Ah, really, memories of modern time slowly changing me back my strange personality. 

" Oh, Lady Maria, you're finally willing to get out of your room."


I stopped and looked at the handsome male with a striking long white hair that neatly tied behind his head, his face expression are stern as he walked closer to me.

He is the head butler, Nickelsi Wardrobelin. 

I know in these past few days, my attitude toward the servants are quite snobbish and my unscrupulous-villainess-reputation are spread like wildfires all over the empire. 

They must have already heard it then started gossiping from here and there.

" Lady Maria, you're a fallen noble and was helplessly thrown out here like trash. I know I'm merely servant as well commoner to say this, but you're becoming handful and ungrateful lady for shunning the servants everyday. Some fallen noble doesn't have a chance to pick up themselves once they're abandoned by their own family or the high society, yet, you has the decree from her Majesty the Empress. Therefore, you must not broken hearted and happily accept it. Today, His Grace is coming back from the long journey, please stop your unladylike attitude and go face the consequences of your deeds." 

"Is that so." I murmured, staring back to him.

Hearing his every words is like there needles pricking my chest, mostly the part where he said to accept it. What? Accept it happily like a fool? Who's becoming ungrateful lady? Me? Did my actions is something really bad to the point you would say those words and gave me that hard stare. 

I do not know whether to laugh or cry as my hands are being itchy to slap the people out there in capital city, let alone my number one beloved smart heroine whom I had made for this world. 


" Well then. Please show me the way where to greet His Grace later. . ." Nickelsi seemed taken aback for what I said to him. Though it still not the end of my words when my pale red lips curved upward into a faint smile.

" . .And what did you say? I must be grateful to Her Majesty the Empress,  for giving me this chance of restoring my nobility by marrying the Duke of Slendlock? Oh, Don't ever make me laugh for their pathetic excuse. " With that his eyes widened for a moment and he glared.

After saying the insensitive words you dared to have a scary face. This character features meet my expectations but not his personality. It's completely different from my novel. 

As the right hand man of infamous Duke you are supposed to be more secretive like what it was written.

"Did I offended Lady Maria? Please forgive this mere servant's words." Ah.I noticed the shifting of his voice, no sincerity at all.

"If you know your mistakes . Do you think it's better to mind your words first right? It will  avoid trouble in the future." 

" I understand. " He bowed curtly and tried so hard not to retort back. 

If you understand then don't ever bully this auntie because she is known as the bad guy!

I'll never let anyone decide what's life course of mine will gonna be, even it's the heavens from above.

"Now, if you could please show me where is the kitchen is?" 

"Kitchen?" 

"You see, I'm really hungry."

The butler was speechless and shock silent as he stared with disbelief. There is nothing wrong in my words right?  He started to lead the way and asked me if there were maids goes to my chamber to deliver the breakfast meals. I shook my head and didn't gave him an answer. 

His emotions changed easily to irritation and subtle anger. 

After of long walks, we finally able to reach the said dining room in this house. He don't show me where is the dining room though. I 

regained my past life memories but the novel parts are blurred and little hazy. 

I couldn't recall some of the scenes anymore. It just there something missing, something is blank on the line. 

Later, I must take the notes about my Novel World.

" Please, wait here for a while. We'll prepare the food right away." I nodded without looking  and then Nickelsi excused himself. 

An hour already had passed where I'm walking around the room like a curious cat examining every details. 

As expected for the infamous Duke House, there many expensive and beautiful materials decorated in this room. I wonder if that Duke wouldn't mind if I steal one or two things here. They will surely sell in the market, for example like this well crafted vase I'm holding. 

"Lady Maria, forgive us to make you wait for too long. " Nickelsi finally here with number of maids tailing him behind. They're carrying the foods in silence. At first glance, they look like obedient servants but when you stare closely you can tell from their stiffened shoulders and forced movements, that, they hated of what  they're doing right now. 

Poor servants. 
No choice but served the villainess! 

I ignored their visible antipathy for me as I sit on my chosen chair at the end of table.

Once they're done placing down every dishes, my mouth left agape for seconds. Too much. It's too much for one person! Wasteful! What this people are thinking? Am I look like a pig in their eyes? My body isn't that skinny either. 


"Is there something wrong Lady Maria?" I felt the veins on my forehead are throbbing and  my brain cells are spinning with this oblivious butler questions. 

" This is too much." I began lowly.

" What do you mean Lady Maria?"

" Explain the portions of these foods today and the portions when I'm inside my room." 

Nickelsi seemed to understand and started his explanation calmly. " Lady Maria, for the reason was because your're insisting of not going outside and locking yourself inside of your room. We lessen the normal portions but since Lady Maria decided to come out and then eat here. Therefore, we must provide you the traditional household normal portions as to follow the rules. " 

"Then sit with me." I retorted. 

If earlier my head was spinning, well then after hearing the explanation my brain cells feels exhausted. Rules? Normal? Is this what they call normal portions? 

I know, it's a duke household to begin with, but for goodness sake this kind of portions are all you can eat buffet ah! 


"Pardon?"

" I said sit and dine with me."  At once, there intake breath's from each of them.

" Lady Maria servants cannot dine with the Master's guests and you are His Grace future wife." 

"Nah.. like you said earlier I'm already a fallen noble and I'm merely sheltering in this house. So please, dine with me and I cannot eat all of this." I'm not a heavy eater when it comes to meals anyway. 

And I don't want to be wasteful person. 

Out there, a lot of people getting hungry every second and here I am, served with portions for ten people. 

Nickelsi face slightly disturbed bowed again from his spot and speak seriously. " Please, enjoy your meal Lady Maria, and don't mind us, the servants." 

"But..." I glanced to each of them and their expressions talked what they really want to say, ' Don't drag us down and make us lose our job' , and then before looking down on the floor. 


The dislike for me are crystal clear without any exceptions. I didn't pursue them anymore and once again my sight landed at the set of blank chairs within this long table. How lonely, to eat all of this by yourself. I'm used to eating alone but not in a this kind of set up when the memories of my family and I, happily sat with each other in our small table. It saddened me deep inside and to prevent myself tearing up I forcefully began eating the dishes presented to me. 


It's delicious. 

Even so, realising your all alone in this table while the servants bowed their heads down. All of the foods become tasteless and bland. As I started to asked myself mentally if I'm eating for the sake of filling stomach or for the sake of not wanting to waste any food.

Too quiet.


Afterwards, I goes back to my room to have a refreshing bath from feeling bad when I didn't eat all of them. After lamenting the autumn and spring, my confidence come back as well  a clear possible ideas to avoid my bad ending.

Based on their reactions to me earlier, they dislike my existence here which is a good thing. Then I can leave the house without pressure behind my back. 

The more they hate me, the more they will chase me out. 

Good. Good. Very good!

Because of this, Auntie have decided to live her normal life in another country!

Exile? No problem. I'll travel the world of seven seas!

Ah. My previous life long dream is here.

My hearts was fluttering in a fit of burst with excitement and aspiration. As this world, no need for passport or any id's for travelling.

Isn't that good opportunity? For the matter of those people in capital. Once I made myself a stronger individual, kicking out their faces to the ground someday would be piece of cake.


For this moment, the step one is important to  avoid my death scenario!


 "Lady Maria, His Grace finally returned."

Oh. Perfect! 

Just in time to meet the herald of my future death!

One Year Later

Its been a year since becoming Celestia after I woke up I found out I was in the body of a Novel character. Turns out before I came to this body Celestia fell sick and was asleep for three months. then all of a sudden I happen to come in her body as Celestia. I thought about it and what if this world's Celestia had died and I just happen to take her place. Getting accustomed to the structure of this world wasn't bad, I had Celestia's memories not to mention I read the book multiple times. The only good thing about being recreated into Celestia as she was the second princess of the Kingdom of Svioner which made her quite the celebrity, and not also but after I woke up I quickly had to do something about the way I acted. In the book, Celestia was a humble person and was a ray of sweet sunshine, but Lily Johnson was the opposite I wasn't quite a nice person and I was only humble to a certain amount of people. The weird part was that Celestia was an actual Goddess her beauty surpassed any Human looks. It was as if when God put a pretty potion powder on her he threw the whole bottle in as if he was too lazy. Celestia had beautiful white hair and beautiful Crystal blue eyes. Even though I had to act cute and sweet it was all I can do to get accustomed to this lifestyle. People did get mysterious but my father the King thought it was maturity. I heard a knock on the door.

" You may come in"

It was the third Princess, Ellie. She was only a year younger than Celestia but acted like seven years younger. In the book, Ellie was Celestia's little angel even after things went wrong Ellie was always there for her.

" Stia are you ok you look stiff"

" Oh I'm fine don't worry"

" I get that it's been a year since you woke up but if you don't feel well then you should see the royal doctor."

"It's fine don't worry about it"

Ellie smiled and left the room. Ellie was a little angel after I woke up she would visit me every day. But I need to focus on the novel, Celestia, wasn't your lovely romance stories, in fact, it wasn't even mainly romance. Celestia was the second princess of the Kingdom which meant she would be a duchess, but Maria the first Princess decided to be a Commander in the Royal Army and Lois the first Prince became a Commander for the imperial army.  So that meant Celestia would be next for the throne since she was only a girl she would have to find the right husband to be King. So she had two options marry the Dukes son Troy Clanson or marry the Marquesses son Isaac le Lorance. In the book, Celestia loved Isaac so it would be natural for her to pick him. Although Maria was against it, Troy would be a better choice because he himself loved Celestia and would be a better King and husband. Still, in the end, Celestia became engaged to Isaac. Isaac didn't love Celestia whatsoever and treated her like garbage. After they got engaged Celestia started being able to see the future so she studied magic from the royal magician Alec Zornel, after months being with him she fell for him. Unfortunately, Celestia couldn't be with Alec because she was already engaged. Alec who also loved Celestia confessed to her. So ever since then, they have secretly been together. When Celestia was gonna call off the marriage she knew she couldn't, her sister Maria fell in love with a general a knight in the Royal Army, but if she calls off the marriage she would have her sister leave the general and have to marry Isaac. So she kept her and Alec a secret even until they were married. three years after that, Isaac became King and I became Queen, Isaac's sister, Benneth, the villain of the story found out about the affair and told her brother. Isaac was furious and for this, he executed Celestia and Alec. Troy who was furious of Celestia's execution went to avenge them and was killed for trying to commit Treason. Maria fell in depression after Stia's death and ran away to a different Kingdom with the general. Ellie was next in line and had to marry Isaac she couldn't bear marrying a man who killed her sister, so she ran away but was found the next day dead after starvation. Isaac was married to another woman and had children he enjoyed his life at the end of the novel and dint feel regret as to what he did. That was how the story went, when the book was online the comment section was bursting with hate at Isaac and people were mad at the author for ending it like that. Well, I wasn't, not all stories end with a happily ever after. But since I'm Celestia now I will give a happily ever after to everyone. All I have to do is find a Survival plan to live even if it means I will not find happiness. As long as I live I'll be fine.

It was Lily`s best day of her life, her boyfriend Luke just asked for her hand in marriage. She grew up in Virginia without parents and no one to love her, but she finally found the one. As she stared at the buildings of New York on a balcony she suddenly felt something push her, and she started to feel herself falling. Soon she realized it was the end she couldn't survive this fall. But suddenly she found her self in a beautiful bed in a room that was the size of her house. She soon realized she was recreated into a " PRINCESS " from one of her favorite Novels. Lily had to get into the habit of this new lifestyle of being Princess Celestia, but what she didn't know, it would be harder than she thought.

Eve tidak punya banyak pilihan selain mengikuti Maria dan Shizu agar ia bisa menemui ibunya,Tearju Lunatique.Di stasiun Kuoh mereka naik kereta lokal untuk pergi ke rumah Mikado Ryouko tempat Tearju menumpang tinggal beberapa tahun belakangan.
Sepanjang perjalanan Maria dan Shizu menanyakan berbagai macam hal pada Eve.
Tapi Eve hanya menjawab seadanya tanpa mau membuka diri lebih banyak.
Sampai akhirnya Mikan membuat mereka berdua berhenti mengajukan pertanyaan,berkat itu Eve menjadi lebih tenang dan tidak terlalu tegang lagi di hadapan mereka bertiga.
"Maafkan mamaku dan tante Shizu mereka berdua orangnya memang begitu."Kata Mikan sambil menundukkan kepalanya meminta maaf pada Eve.
"Namamu siapa?"Tanya Eve pada Mikan.
"Namaku ialah Mikan,Hyoudou Mikan."Jawab Mikan.
"Kamu mungkin sudah tahu namaku dari obrolan sebelumnya tapi biarkan aku memperkenalkan diriku padaku Mikan.Namaku adalah Eve Lunatique Heartnett salam kenal dariku Mikan."Kata Eve.
"Salam kenal juga Eve,mari kita berteman dengan baik!"Kata Mikan dengan mata yang berkaca-kaca.
"Baiklah!"Kata Eve.
Mereka berdua lalu berjabat tangan dan setelah itu berpelukan dan obrolan antara kedua cewek itu pun berlanjut.
"Ara,lihat Shizu putri kecilku Mikan-chan bisa menghancurkan ketegangan dari Eve dan berteman baik dengannya!"Kata Maria sambil tersenyum puas.
"Anak seumur Mikan dan Eve memang lebih baik bersama apalagi dari yang waktu itu Tearju ceritakan pada kita anak perempuannya memang seumur dengan Mikan bukan jadi wajar saja menurutku kalau mereka berdua bisa akrab."Kata Shizu.
"Menurutku kita tidak bisa mengobrol benar dengan Eve tadi mungkin karena kita terlalu banyak menanyakan hal yang nggak penting."
Kata Maria.
"Atau mungkin kita berdua tadi bersikap terlalu kekanak-kanakan?"Kata Shizu dengan muka yang memerah.
"Mungkin juga."Kata Maria yang mukanya juga sama merahnya dengan Shizu.

Rumah dari Mikado Ryouko guru kesehatan bagian SMA Akademi Kuoh.
Di sebuah kamar yang berisi banyak alat penelitian Mikado Ryouko sedang melihat kondisi dari anak angkatnya Murasame Oshizu yang baru saja pulih dari sakit yang dideritanya.
"Bagaimana perasaanmu saat ini Oshizu-chan apakah ada yang kamu rasa salah dari kondisi tubuhmu?"Tanya Ryouko.
"Tidak ada sensei!malah aku merasa jauh lebih sehat dari sebelumnya!"Jawab Oshizu.
"Maafkan aku karena harus mengganti tubuhmu dengan tubuh buatan Oshizu-chan!bahkan dengan teknologi tinggi yang kumiliki cara untuk mengobati kondisi sel-sel tubuhmu yang terus menurun masih belum ada."Kata Ryoukou dengan wajah yang sedih.
"Se-sensei jangan bersedih begitu aku bisa memiliki tubuh sehat yang bisa kugerakkan sesuka hati tanpa ada masalah seperti sebelumnya itu semua berkat sensei.Walaupun tubuhku sekarang adalah tubuh buatan aku tetap senang karena masih diberi kesempatan oleh Tuhan melalui sensei!dan kesempatan ini tidak akan kusia-siakan."Kata Oshizu dengan wajah penuh kegembiraan dan air mata bahagia.
Dengan wajah yang juga berlinang air mata Ryouko memeluk Oshizu dengan erat melihat ketulusan hati dari Oshizu.Dari lubuk hatinya yang paling dalam Ryoukou tidak pernah menyesal menjadikan Oshizu sebagai anaknya.
Di luar Tearju yang tadinya hendak mengobrol dengan Ryouko menahan dirinya untuk masuk karena ia tidak mau merusak momen membahagiakan antara ibu dan anaknya.
Melihat mereka berdua berpelukan seperti itu Tearju jadi teringat dengan anak kandungnya Eve yang sangat ia rindukan.
           XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX
"Kita sudah sampai."Kata Maria.
"Apa Ryouko kira-kira ada di rumah Maria?" Tanya Shizu.
"Ryouko itu tipe yang jarang keluar rumah kecuali untuk pergi ke sekolah atau belanja ke mall."Jawab Maria.
"Tipikal setengah Hikkikomori rupanya?"Kata Shizu.
"Tidak bisa lebih benar daripada itu!"Kata Maria.
"Disinikah mamaku Tear tinggal?"Tanya Eve.
"Benar Eve."Jawab Mikan."Mamamu Tearju-sensei tinggal disini bersama Mikado-sensei beserta anak angkat dari Mikado -sensei Murasame Oshizu."
"Eve-chan,Mikan-chan ayo kita masuk! Aku yakin Tearju pasti akan senang begitu melihatmu Eve!"Kata Maria sambil menarik tangan dari Eve dan Mikan.
"Tu-tunggu dulu Maria-san aku,hatiku belum siap."Kata Eve gugup.
"Jangan gugup begitu Eve-chan bagaimana pun Tearju adalah ibu kandungmu bukan,lagipula kalian berdua sudah lama sekali tidak bertemu jadi sekarang ini adalah kesempatan bagi kalian berdua untuk memperbaiki hubungan kalian berdua."Kata Shizu sambil memegang pundak Eve.
"Ba-baiklah Shizu-san."Kata Eve sambil menganggukan kepalanya.
Setelah itu Maria menekan bel rumah itu dan menunggu seseorang membukakan pintu.
Tearju yang sedang mengintip dari pintu yang sedikit terbuka mendengar suara bel pintu lalu memutuskan kalau dia saja yang membuka pintu dan melihat siapa tamu yang datang.
"Hmm Ryouko dan Oshizu-chan sedang dalam momen bahagia biar aku saja yang membukakan pintu untuk tamu!"
Tapi yang tidak diduga oleh Tearju adalah kalau momen bahagia yang baru saja dialami oleh Ryouko dan Oshizu akan dialami juga olehnya ketika dia membuka pintu.
"Tear."Kata Eve berteriak kencang lalu terdiam berdiri di depan pintu ketika melihat yang membukakan pintu adalah Tearju ibunya.
"Eve."Hal yang sama terjadi dengan Tearju, begitu ia membuka pintu dan melihat Eve ada di depan pintu ia terdiam tak bergerak berbagai macam perasaan yang campur aduk muncul di dalam dirinya ketika ia melihat Eve anak perempuan kesayangannya.
Secara otomatis mereka berdua berpelukan erat.
Air mata yang berlinang mengalir deras di wajah masing-masing.Air mata itu adalah hal yang membuktikan rasa sayang antara ibu dan anak tetap ada walaupun mereka berdua sudah terpisah selama bertahun-tahun. 
"Hal yang indah untuk dilihat bukan Mikan-chan melihat ibu dan anak yang sudah terpisah amat lama bisa bertemu kembali dan saling berpelukan untuk melepas rasa rindu yang sudah mereka berdua pendam selama bertahun-tahun."Kata Maria dengan mata yang juga berlinang air mata.
"Benar,ma.Pertemuan Eve dengan ibunya Tearju-sensei memang pemandangan indah yang mengharukan."Kata Mikan.
"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa sungguh suatu hal mengharukan hati!aku benar-benar senang mereka berdua bisa bertemu lagi!"Kata Shizu yang banjir air mata.
Ryoukou dan Oshizu yang ada di belakang Tearju juga senang ketika melihat Tearju bisa bertemu kembali dengan anaknya.Mereka berdua datang melihat tamu yang datang karena mendengar teriakan dari Eve dan Tearju.
 XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX
Di dalam kamar Tearju.Eve dan Tearju dibiarkan berduaan untuk mengobrol secara pribadi.
"Jadi selama ini kamu bersama dengan papamu yang menyelamatkanmu dari organisasi."Kata Tearju kepada Eve.
"Benar,Tear!papa menyelamatkanku dari organisasi lalu menghancurkan organisasi itu sampai ke akarnya."Kata Eve.
"Train benar-benar keterlaluan ia sama sekali tidak memberitahuku kalau kamu selama ini bersamanya Eve!"Kata Tearju marah kepada suaminya.
"Mama maafkan papa,dia tidak memberitahukan keberadaanku padamu.Karena sampai sebulan yang lalu mama masih di awasi oleh beberapa anggota dari organisasi yang tersisa,makanya sebelum seluruh anggota organisasi dibasmi oleh papa.Aku dilarang menemui mama."Kata Eve.
"Kalau kamu yang bilang begitu Eve apa boleh buat aku juga nggak bisa benar-benar marah lagi padanya!"Kata Tearju sambil mengusap-ngusap kepala anaknya."Oh iya Eve,kamu mau makan apa biar kubuatkan."
"Ma-makanan buatan mama?ti-tidak usah aku sudah makan bersama Maria-san,Shizu-san dan Mikan sebelum pergi ke rumah ini."Kata Eve gemetaran mencari alasan agar tidak usah memakan makanan buatan ibunya yang tidak enak.
"Oh?begitukah kalau begitu aku akan membuatkanmu kopi saja kalau begitu!"Kata Tearju.
"Baiklah tolong buatkan ya,ma."Kata Eve bernafas lega.
Ketika Tearju keluar dari kamar tidurnya dan pergi ke dapur.Eve berkata dalam hatinya.
(Maafkan aku ma,bukannya aku nggak mau memakan masakanmu karena terakhir kali aku memakan masakanmu sewaktu aku kecil.Aku harus terbaring di ranjang selama satu bulan karena mengalami sakit perut yang parah.)

"Sure sure, whatever little girl. Make sure you eat it before it starts to melt. Have a nice day you eight." The vendor said as he waved them goodbye before going on to the next customer.

…

"Nom." Sam immediately just started taking bites out of the ice cream cone as if the coldness didn't bother him.

"Are you okay eating the ice cream like that?" Chad couldn't help but ask Sam. As his teeth already were in pain from the coldness of the ice cream.

"I am used to it. It doesn't taste that good when melted, so I had to eat it when it was cold still." Sam replied as he completely devoured his ice cream, contemplating if he wanted to get more for himself.

"How is it, Sylvie. Are you calm yet?" Maria asked Sylvie.

"Hmph." Sylvie simply looked away from Maria not even giving her a glance, as she was the one who had forced her into that scary ride. Sylvie just silently licked her ice cream while ignoring Maria.

"Sylvie! I am sorry alright! I didn't know you would be that bad when it came to scary stuff!" Maria tried to apologize but was still being ignored. She ended up having a grievous look on her face due to being ignored.

"Hmph, I won't forgive you next time," Sylvie said as she took a bite out of the ice cream, which gave Maria the chills.

"Yes yes…" Maria responded with goosebumps and cold sweat on her body.

'She better not kill me like what she did to that ice cream just now…' Maria thought inside her head. She even made mental notes to never piss off Sylvie ever again.

"Alright, let's go on the roller coasters," Maria said.

"After we're done eating please…" Chad said as he did not want the ice cream cone to go to waste.

"Of course, of course, after we're doing eating the ice cream. I wouldn't want them to go to waste either." Maria said reassuring Chad.

"That's great, then let's hurry up so we can have more time to go to more rides. We do have school tomorrow after anyway." Chad said with a smile on his face.

"Yeah! Say did you all do your homework?" Maria asked.

"Yes," Sylvie, Lance, Maal, and Elise answered.

"What about the rest of you?" Maria asked as she looked at the people who stopped eating and were frozen.

"Ahaha… I'll do it when I get back to the dormitory," Sam said as he scratched his head.

"Doubtful," Maria said as Sam still had not turned in a second homework assignment in the past month.

"Quiet okay! It's just too difficult! Which normal person can do that anyway!?" Sam cried out.

"We literally learn it in school! Almost everyone can do it!" Maria shouted at him.

"What about you two?" Maria asked Chad and Benji.

"I only need the last page…" Chad replied embarrassedly.

"I am only half way…" Benji said.

"Oh lord, please do them when you get home. Don't forget to help Sam out either.

"Yes…" They replied to her meekly.
