Luckas was enjoying a cup of coffee at his dining table in the kitchen. Luckas spacious apartment including the kitchen. Compared to Lidya's apartment which is only a quarter of Luckas' apartment.
Lidya walked out wearing only the same loose shirt, her red underwear was clearly visible due to the thinness of the white shirt wrapped around her body. Luckas was stunned to see Lidya who was very seductive 'O Lord!!! what are these temptations' . Lidya felt awkward about her clothes, and Luckas' eyes looked at her from head to toe "a. I. my clothes haven't dried yet, so I had to put this back on" obviously Lidya slowly, she was really embarrassed to have to dress like this in front of Luckas.
Luckas averted his gaze "and, as usual, Lidya.I really don't mind.My eyes are really grateful to me for being able to witness such a beautiful sight" Luckas chuckled, he pulled a dining chair nearby "sit down.I'm sure you're hungry.and what about your head? still sick?"
Slowly Lidya sat in the chair that Luckas pulled earlier, Luckas thrust a plate containing a toast and also a cup of coffee "still.but I can hold it" sahut Lidya while filling his stomach with toast that looks tantalizing.
Luckas smiled at Lidya who was so voracious.
"Ladyy"
Lidya turned to Luckas while chewing on the toast that was still in her mouth.
"Who's Rico?"
Lidya almost choked on hearing Rico's question, hurriedly sipped the coffee that was in front of her "How do you know that name?"
"you call that name all the time"
Lidya put down her coffee, her face again looks grim. Just hearing that name alone, his head again throbbed loudly "he was my ex-lover"
"who betrayed you?"
Lidya nodded "We've been dating for seven years, Luckas. Since college, slowly we began to rarely communicate, but, maybe I was too innocent to consider her change was a natural thing because of her busyness now. Until I saw for myself he was having an affair with another woman in front of my eyes. A.. I was so stupid, Luckas.I don't even know how long he's been betraying me" said Lidya as she shed tears "Look.Look I'm still crying over men******* that" Lidya smiled bitterly as she wiped the tears that flowed on her cheeks.
Luckas got up and shifted Lidya's chair until Lidya faced him, Luckas hugged her "let your tears flow, Lidya.let this be the last tear for ********* that hurt you"
Lidya's tears grew louder and louder to hear Luckas' soft words that touched her heart, she needed this kind of support and affection. Lidya returned Luckas' embrace and cried letting go of everything in Luckas' arms.
"Thank you, Luckas. I promised I'd forget it"
Luckas stared fixedly at Lidya's two reddened eyes "Lidya.please accept me.."
"Buck's.."
"There's never been a woman I've wanted so badly as you, Lidya.and I'd go crazy if you still wouldn't accept me!!"
"i don't have to accept you, it's enough that only you accept me. Because you were in my heart before I accepted you, Lidya. You're the only one" said Luckas while peeping Lidya's forehead "I love you.."
Lidya's heart was pounding..Luckas really pours out his love for her, without her knowing Lidya has opened her heart to Luckas.

A week later at the Ryans Hotel,
Luckas has been in New York for a week to run the Ryans Hotel in New York. Lidya is also increasingly preoccupied with her work. Luckas and Lidya keep communicating with each other despite the distance separating them. The door of Lidya's heart slowly began to open without her noticing. Every night, Lidya was waiting for a call or message from Luckas. Even sometimes they both do Video Call to let go of their misses. Since then, Lidya realizes she has fallen in love with Luckas, and she doubts whether it is right to love a Luckas Ryans. Even so, Lidya wanted to try to arrange a relationship with him. Lidya decides to give Luckas an answer when he returns to Washington.

New York, though,
Luckas took care of all the problems as quickly as possible, to make his assistant Edward a little overwhelmed. He knew Luckas was a workholic but only this time did he see a very fiery Luckas want to solve everything at lightning speed. The longing that enveloped him was enough to make Luckas desperate. Video Call did not adequately treat her longing for the brunettes.
Luckas finished his job which should have taken two weeks to a week. He wants to go back to Washington soon. "Edward, I'm going back to Washington this morning.. The important thing is that I've taken care of everything, and I hope you can take care of the rest, right?"
Edward nodded "of course, sir. You can trust me"
Luckas smiled, he already knew Edward inside and out. Luckas finds it hard to trust someone, but Edward's loyalty and dexterity make Luckas even more fond of his assistant. Although Edward was three years older than Luckas, he was very respectful and admired his master.

the John F. Kennedy International Airport,
Luckas stepped onto his business-class plane. His heart was overjoyed considering that he was about to meet his heart.
'i'll surprise him with my sudden return'
Luckas smiled to himself imagining Lidya's face as he looked at her.
