“I’m happy for you.” “Don’t be too happy,” I warned. “I don’t think this is anything to write home about.” “I don’t know. I’d be willing to place bets on it.” “Stop,” I said, not wanting to entertain the idea. I needed to keep my expectations in check. If I let myself get caught up in the idea that there was a chance at happiness with him, it would be hard to let it go. I couldn’t even begin to entertain such thoughts.

They say do not raise expectations so that in the end, you won't get hurt when the outcome did not come as you expected it to be. This is such an old saying, but even these days, it is still applicable in every circumstance. Even when the analysis is still not done, we could see that just like the first one, we won't get anything about this UVirus. Still, we expected something. In the end, we were all disappointed to see that the result does not make sense at all.

I just hope no one is hurt in the process. 💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨

the girl said with a hint of urgency, hoping to dispel any confusion. Hope was a dangerous thing, she thought to herself. It had the power to lift her up to the highest of heights, only to come crashing down with a force that could break her. She couldn't allow herself to hope. It was better to stay grounded and keep her expectations low. But despite her best efforts, a small spark of hope flickered within her, threatening to ignite into a flame that could consume her. Her heart was guarded, shielded from any potential pain. She had been hurt before, and the memory of that pain lingered like a shadow over her every move.

Dinda who rebelled got a hard hit. “Just comply with my request, then I will make you queen of this place. Don't have time, the choice is yours!" Dinda could only cry, she was forced to give her body to Marco. At that time, Dinda began to realize that having high hopes was also not good. You will be sad when the hope you hope for does not arrive. In the end, you also have to come back to your senses. You have to wake up from your dream, dreaming is okay. But lingering in it, it will also make your heart hurt. At the core of life, never hope. Make yourself the foundation of life, because no one will help but yourself.

“Even now, I still can’t believe I’m going to be Dr. Jhon’s wife. But... I wonder if he could ever love me?” Kiara spoke to herself. In life, a person should not expect too much. Sometimes, expectations that are too high only end in disappointment. But the opposite is also true. What we fear does not always turn out as badly as we imagine. “Whatever happens, I’ll face it. Dr. Jhon is a good man. He would never treat me badly. If he really doesn’t like me, he’ll divorce me. Besides, I already told him that I’m willing to accept it if, one day, he feels that we’re not compatible.”

That vase had been something we’d constructed together, and our initials were carved into the base. Adrian rushed forward, gripping my arm. He brushed a hand over my cheek as if nothing else mattered. "It’s alright. I’ll buy you another one. Lauren, I know you’ve blamed yourself all this time for not being able to conceive. If you can’t, then we won’t. We’ll just adopt." He paused, then spoke carefully, "I have a friend abroad. His whole family died in an accident, leaving behind a two-year-old boy. Lauren, you’ll love him."

When you don't put your expectations on people, you don't get hurt, because you don't expect anything from them. I threw myself on the bed and closed my eyes tightly, hoping to forget about it, fall into a deep sleep and think about how my life would be from now on; I would need to distribute resumes around the city again and I knew how exhausting that would be, but that's okay... I couldn't stand still depending on Pedro and Rafa for everything.

"No matter what it will take!" "Don't say that!" She warned me. "Don't do something you'd regret because of me." A frown crossed my face. "I have so many regrets… but believe me, setting you free wouldn't be one of them." Her smile faded and a sober face appeared. "Don't blame me for not having hope." She said mildly.
