His life takes a turn for the better.

Prologue
Could it be that he knows, and that's why he...?"
The life of secrets, betrayal, and firm
In the midst of being lonely some days, Karalana takes a turn in life for the better.
Karalana's mind was a swirling tempest of memories.The weight of his mother's death hung heavy on his shoulders—a tragedy that had shattered his world. Though the accident had been beyond his control, the blame was inescapable.
One fateful evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the mountains, he met Sharisha. Her presence was a gentle breeze that momentarily calmed the storm in his heart. The two shared a secret beneath their imaginations, their whispered words forming an unbreakable bond.
As time passed, Karalana couldn't deny the growing connection between them. In Sharisha, he saw not just a refuge from his past but the promise of a brighter future. And so he made a decision to be by her side: he would keep his mother's death a secret from her; it was a lie born out of love.
In the glittering city of Smokey Valley and with unfamiliar faces, Karalana's trust issues deepened like a chasm in his soul. Surrounded by the wealthy elite, he felt like an outsider, a mere spectator in a world where people wore masks of politeness and privilege.
When every smile seemed to have hidden agendas. He couldn't help but wonder if, in this world of opulence, genuine connections were a rarity. The memories of his cousin's past betrayal and the weight of his tormenting memory only fueled his suspicion of everyone he met.
Yet, amid this sea of unfamiliarity,Sharisha remained his anchor. Her unwavering support and genuine affection were the glimmers of light in his darkening world. With her, he dared to believe that trust could be rekindled, even in a city where wealth and facades seemed to rule.
The unexpected marriage of Karalana and Sharisha sent shockwaves through Sanka and Abisai's circle of friends.

BLOOM OF UNSPOKEN LONGING

Andrew's lips part, and he blinks twice before turning his gaze to Edd. "What in the world is going on with you? How can you use profanity right after mentioning the mother of Jesus? Seriously, Edmond?" 


while Kini kept stirring at them as they were talking. 


"Again, what are you smiling at?" Andrew emphasized. 


Andrew and Edd were at a lively party, surrounded by people laughing, dancing, and enjoying themselves. It was one of those nights where everyone seemed to be in high spirits, except for one person—their friend Kini—before Andrew saw him. 


Looking around, Edd couldn't help but notice Kini standing in the corner, arms folded, with a stern expression on his face. He nudged Andrew and whispered, "Andrew, look at that," directing his attention to where Kini was. 


Andrew turned his gaze toward Kini and couldn't hold back a chuckle. 


"This is fun; he is the only one not smiling in here," Andrew remarked, amused by Kini's uncharacteristic seriousness on such an occasion. 


I'll talk to him
