On the first Sunday in the luxurious apartment, adorned with white marble floors and matching walls, Karina felt even more excited about her day. The 165 cm tall woman enthusiastically tied her hair back and put on a pink jacket, getting ready to go for a workout."It feels wonderful to live here. It's just that I miss Selena at the moment." Karina murmured as she zipped up her jacket and left the mirror that had been her companion while getting ready for her morning exercise on Sunday.Karina quickly took out her trusty white sports shoes and hurried towards the exit door. Before leaving, she glanced around, exploring every corner of her apartment."I think I need to buy an air freshener later from the mini-market in the main lobby." Karina muttered, finally stepping out of her apartment and heading straight to the jogging track on the 5th floor of Prime Plaza Apartment building.On the 5th floor, all the sports facilities, from the jogging track and swimming pool to the sauna, jacuz
Since it was her first move, Karina thought she needed some additional items such as floor and glass cleaners to clean her new apartment. In the end, Karina bought not only air fresheners and bottled water but also several other necessities, including food items she needed.Pushing her shopping cart, Karina occasionally rubbed her stomach and asked the baby inside, "Darling Nugget, what would you like for lunch today?" she asked her unborn child.Karina looked at various vegetables in front of her and picked broccoli, lettuce, tomatoes, and kale. She carefully selected fresh and good quality vegetables before placing them in her shopping basket."This place is called a minimarket, but it feels like a supermarket because it's so well stocked." Karina muttered, pushing her shopping cart towards the fruits section and adding bananas, mangoes, oranges, watermelons, and grapes to her cart.Feeling happy, Karina even hummed as she put the items in her cart.After finishing with vegetables,
Karina hummed with one hand holding the frying pan handle and the other busy stirring the seasoning in front of her. Her smile continued to expand as she imagined how delicious the dish she was making for the first time at home would be.After finishing stirring the newly made mushroom sauce, Karina took a spoon to taste her dish. After finding it perfectly balanced on her palate, Karina turned off her electric stove and began looking for a container.Since there wasn't much kitchenware in her new apartment, Karina finally chose to lend her plates and bowls to her new neighbor, Xavier, whom she had recently met.Karina intentionally cooked for herself and to give it to Xavier as a way to greet her new neighbor. She had even started imagining her future life in the apartment with her child."Well, it looks beautiful and appetizing." Karina murmured after placing slices of sirloin steak on a flat plate and transferring the mushroom sauce to a separate small bowl.Karina also arranged th
The loud alarm sound continued to echo throughout the room, disrupting the deep sleep of a woman. Slowly, the alarm increasingly disturbed the woman's peaceful sleep, causing her to squirm.The woman's consciousness slowly returned, and she finally fully gathered her thoughts. Her eyes, which were initially closed, instantly opened as she remembered something."Oh my goodness, what time is it?!" she exclaimed and immediately jumped out of bed, reaching for her phone that had been ringing incessantly but ignored by her.Karina's eyes widened, and her heart raced as she looked at the time displayed on her phone. She couldn't believe that it was already 8 a.m. Karina then searched for the wall clock displayed in her room."SHIT! I'M LATE!" Karina shouted and threw her phone onto the bed before rushing to the bathroom to wash her face.Karina didn't have time to take a shower because time was running out, and she had to leave for work.After brushing her teeth and washing her face, Karina
The morning meeting, led directly by the CEO named Hank Denver, finally ended. Each representative from each division returned to their respective workplaces as usual, including Karina, Viggo, and Sophia.Sophia and Karina stood at the back of the line inside the elevator, while Viggo stood in front of them."Hey, why were you late earlier?" Sophia asked in a whisper."I was working on today's tasks last night. I fell asleep and apparently didn't hear the alarm ringing." Karina replied with a sigh, regretting her carelessness.Viggo, standing in front of them, eavesdropped on the conversation between the two women standing behind him.Just as the elevator stopped on the floor of the CEO's office, Hank turned around and looked at Viggo. "I'll get off first. Thank you for the morning meeting, Mr. Viggo." Hank said, patting Viggo's shoulder.Viggo nodded his head, and Hank exited the elevator with his secretary.The elevator door closed again, taking them to the floor where the General d
At the end of the weekend, Hoshino Ruby, the Brand Ambassador of Deverell Apparel for their new summer collection, came to do a photoshoot to launch their latest product line. The photoshoot location was not far from the Deverell Apparel office, and several teams, including Karina, Viggo, and Sophia, came to oversee the photoshoot and ensure it went according to their plans."Good morning, Mr. Viggo." Karina greeted as she saw Viggo enjoying a hot cup of coffee in the morning, near the entrance of the photo studio.Viggo turned towards Karina and handed her a box containing a cup of coffee. Karina looked at it and immediately waved her hand to decline."No need to buy it for me, Sir." Karina refused."Sophia already took it, this one is for you." Viggo said, glancing towards Sophia who was engrossed in conversation with someone else.Karina was taken aback because she thought Viggo had bought the coffee specifically for her, but he had bought it for Sophia as well. She felt embarrasse
Karina hurriedly approached the photoshoot area and saw Ruby posing in front of the camera with the clothes she was wearing. Her beautiful and cute face instantly transformed into elegance as the photographer began taking pictures.Several employees from Deverell Apparel who purposely came to see Ruby were seen surrounding the photoshoot area to catch a glimpse of her.Occasionally, with a smile, Ruby smiled at the camera and then resumed posing according to the photographer's directions."Alright, great! Yes! One more time! Hold that pose!" exclaimed the photographer, continuously praising Ruby's modeling skills in front of the camera.Karina, who had just arrived, stood next to Viggo, who was also observing Ruby."How is the photoshoot going? Is it going smoothly?" Karina asked.Viggo glanced at Karina, realizing that the woman had suddenly stood beside him."It's the second set. After this, there will be a break because the background will be changed," Viggo replied.Karina nodded
The photo shoot session for Hoshino Ruby's summer collection by Deverell Apparel finally concluded. The Brand Ambassador had returned to her accommodation and would be returning to her home country tomorrow morning.The employees of Deverell Apparel started leaving the place one by one.Right in front of the door, a tall and muscular man was seen leaning against the door, wearing a leather jacket. From behind, Karina saw Sophia, who ran past him and hugged the man as if ignoring the people around them."Thank you for picking me up!" Sophia exclaimed excitedly.The man was equally delighted to see Sophia, who had just finished working over the weekend to see the photo shoot session of her idol, Hoshino Ruby."It's my duty to pick you up, darling." the man replied.Karina walked up to Sophia to bid her farewell, but Sophia enthusiastically introduced her boyfriend to Karina."Karina! Meet my boyfriend, Ezra." Sophia said excitedly, introducing her boyfriend to Karina.Karina met Ezra fo
