Without hesitation, he leaned closer and kissed me, and that kiss felt like it had been waiting for fifteen years to finally happen.

Building Together

Our relationship was not hidden, but it was never displayed openly for attention, because we both valued our professionalism and reputation.

At first, we were cautious about how others might perceive us, but over time, the team understood that our connection was genuine and not temporary.

We continued to work hard together, expanding the company, opening new branches, and achieving success through shared effort.

I eventually became the project director, and every achievement felt more meaningful because we experienced it together.

One Sunday, he asked me to take a drive with him, but he did not tell me where we were going, which made me curious.

When the car finally stopped, I immediately recognized the street, and my heart skipped a beat.

The house I had lived in was still there, and the house next door had been renovated beautifully.

“I bought it two years ago,” he said, watching my reaction carefully.
