"To the man I thought I could have, but I couldn't."
**********
Karim was the man I met in Wisteria City, in a foreign Wisterian country. I thought he was just a normal person, but he turned out to be an army officer from an enemy country. Who would have known that this man was destined to be the future Prime Minister of his nation? Our worlds collided in a twist of fate, filled with passion, conflict, and the ultimate test of loyalty and love.
We stood on the balcony, the city lights twinkling below us. I turned to Karim, my voice trembling. "So we're over?"
He sighed, his eyes filled with pain. "No, you and I will never be over."
"How can I trust you now?" I whispered, feeling the weight of the future.
Karim stepped closer, his hand reaching out to touch mine. "Because my feelings for you are real. Despite the borders and politics, what we have is genuine."
I pulled away, tears streaming down my face. "It's not that simple, Karim. You're an officer from an enemy country. We both know this can't work."
He looked at me with a mixture of grief and determination. "I'll fight for us, Kristen. As much as I care about the politics, I care about you more."
A sad smile tugged at my lips. "You say that now, but what about when you're Prime Minister? Can you promise me we'll still matter then?"
Karim took my hand, his grip firm yet gentle. "I promise, I'll do everything in my power to make it work. You're worth it."
Despite the turmoil, a part of me wanted to believe him. "You're a smooth talker, you know that?"
He chuckled softly, a glimmer of his old charm returning. "Only for you, Princess."
We stood there, locked in a moment that was as beautiful as it was heartbreaking, knowing that the path ahead was fraught with uncertainty but unable to let go of the connection we had found.
**********
Will Karim be able to balance his love for Kristen with his political ambitions?
Can Kristen overcome the boundaries set by their countries and find a way to be with Karim?
What will happen when their secret relationship is exposed to the public?
How will they navigate the challenges posed by their conflicting loyalties?
Will their love survive the ultimate test of duty and destiny?

The Duty and The Destiny

I shook my head again, trying to find the right words. "It's not like that. It's just… I need to go back to my country, and I wanted to know if I could work from home."

"So it's like that," she said, a hint of relief mingling with her understanding.

I nodded, hoping she would understand the gravity of my situation without further explanation. "Yes."

She leaned back in her chair, her fingers tapping lightly on the desk. "Sure, that's not a problem, but…" she trailed off, her calm demeanor making my anxiety spike again.

"But what?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.

"It would be great if you worked from the office," she said, her tone neutral yet firm.

I hung my head low, feeling the weight of her words. "I am sorry," I muttered, the apology tasting bitter on my tongue.

Lila chuckled softly, her laughter easing some of the tension. "That's okay. I will apply for the changes."
