CHAPTER 1

Aurora Leonard rushes into the pharmacy in the area where she works in the city of Golyn. She needs to get simethicone because she can't stand anymore with her gastric pain. Hence, she needs to return immediately to pick up her daughter from the nanny's home.

"Give me simethicone please." Aurora said to the pharmacy worker. While waiting for the medicine, she noticed there are fish aquarium beside her. All the fish enjoying their life swimming around the cute mini house in the aquarium. She also had the time to be jealous with the life of the fish that can live in an aquarium that is quite decorated. Although Aurora is a home designer who works at one of the famous companies, Aurora is still unable to decorate her home with luxurious furniture. But Aurora lucky enough to be able to work in the city of Golyn, which is the most prominent city in the country because this city only accepts employees from former students who have graduated from Golyn University and other major universities around the world.

"Sorry for the wait, this is the medicine you want," said the pharmacy worker warmly. Aurora took the medicine and continued to stare back at the fish. "The best thing is that you are all just a fish but still can live in a lovely aquarium like this, you can eat for free but I have to work half to death to keep living" said Aurora in her heart. Aurora is a daughter from a poor family, since childhood she was often hated and insulted by people, especially when she was a student at Golyn University which only accepted smart and wealthy students. Thanks to her efforts she was able to receive a full scholarship from that University.

Meanwhile, a man came to the pharmacy to buy the same medicine. However, the worker said that the medicine had run out and the last one was at the lady who was busy staring at the aquarium like a cat trying to catch the fish. Without saying anything, the man took the medicine in Aurora's hand and immediately paid for it. Aurora who was stunned by the man's rude behavior quickly chased after the man to prevent the man from getting into his car.

"Whoa rude thief! You have so much guts that you dare to steal people's things!" Aurora blurted out those words because she couldn't hold back.

The man looked at Aurora's face with deathly eyes. His heart said "How dare you call me like that?!" he tried to ignore Aurora and walk away but his big shoulder bumped into Aurora that made her fall down. The people around who witnessed the incident were unable to say anything or dare to help that poor girl.

"Auch! What's wrong with you huh?! Aurora moaned in pain after feeling like she had been pushed by an elephant.

"Don't try to make a cheap drama here, okay? If this is your medicine, why don't you just pay and leave the pharmacy?" said the man in a harsh tone. That voice alone was enough to make Aurora cringe when she heard it.

Aurora got up and answered the man's words. "Hey thief! It's my business to pay sooner or later. It's not your right to decide. Anyway, I can't stand the pain in my stomach anymore. You better return the medicine before I do something to you!"

"Do you think I bought this medicine to feed rats? After all I see that you're healthy and you can still behave like you're not sick or you're trying to get my attention?" the man insisted not wanting to lose.

"I'm too lazy to argue with you. We set a good way okay? Now give me the medicine and we'll split it in 2. Agree?" Aurora already wasted a lot of time in the pharmacy and now have to fight with a crazy man. "You think by dressing up with this Hyrie Josh brand suit, you can scare me huh?" her heart said so even though she knew the Hyrie Josh brand was only for wealthy people.

Before the man could speak, the phone's ringtone suddenly rang, apparently it belonged to Aurora. She immediately answered the call because she knew it must be her daughter calling. The man clearly heard what the two of them were talking about, with a sudden feeling of guilt in his heart, he divided the medicine into 2 according to Aurora's idea and he pulled her arm and put the medicine in her palm then left.

Aurora felt strange with the man's attitude because Aurora thought he would remain stubborn. But when she tried to recall the man's face, she seemed to recognize him, or was it just her feelings? "Who is actually that crazy man?"
