Black Swan's
"The Voice" Sian Story (Seventy Two)
Unexpectedly, that night was the beginning where their relationship would begin. Relationships that were initially limited because of compassion, now continue to develop into a caring relationship with each other. It's been a month since Olivia's been living in Sian's house. During that time Olivia continued to work as a flower coupler in the shop owned by Madame Han and also worked as a dishwasher in a hotdog shop. At first Sian had thought to ban Olivia from working, but then he was aware of her status that was nobody Olivia, so he had no right to forbid the woman to work. Olivia also insisted on paying for all of Sian's kindness with the money she had collected from working at a florist's shop and in a hotdog. Although he himself did not know when the money would actually be collected to pay Sian, given that his work could not make him make much money, as much as Sian often spent for him.
“Sian, I'm done cooking dinner. You want dinner now?” olivia asked one night when Sian was busy doing her office chores. Seeing Olivia's face that was poking out from behind the door of his room, Sian immediately got up while stretching the muscles of his body that felt sore and stiff.
“What are you cooking today?”
“Only a simple meal. Come on, you have to see it for yourself.” said Olivia enthusiastically. The woman then immediately walked ahead of Sian with the help of her aluminum stick as usual. Back when Olivia had just lived in her house, Sian was disturbed and so uncomfortable with the sound of Olivia's wand that was quite loud, but over time, as time went on, he can adapt to it all and begins to understand Olivia's circumstances. One thing that made Sian very comfortable to be next to Olivia, she could always put herself in any situation. If she feels sad and misses Tiffany, Olivia will come to her while strengthening herself with sad stories of her past that make her forget all her sadness, and it makes him more grateful with what
which he has at the moment. Although Olivia is physically blind, she has sharp heart eyes. He can understand the feelings of the people around him and also make people feel more meaningful in this world. And because of that, Sian felt that she always needed Olivia by her side and did not want Olivia to leave her life.
“Sian, I cooked all this for you, as well as a farewell party because tomorrow I will move out of your house. Aunt Han offered me to stay with him, so I decided to take the offer.”
Instantly Sian felt unable to stand up properly. Just now he wanted to ask Olivia to continue living in his house, but the woman had preceded him like this. She didn't want to lose Olivia.
“Why sudden? You've never talked about this before?” tanya Sian was flat-footed. Olivia bit her boozy lips nervously while sitting herself in front of the dining table. Actually he had thought about this in advance, but he never had a chance to tell Sian because Sian was always busy, always, and also always lamenting his own grief while watching videos about Tiffany. During this time, Olivia always heard the noise from Sian's room accompanied by an aura of intense sadness around
that guy's. He then became uneasy, as he felt like a new person who casually entered into Sian's life and acted as if he was the owner of this house. He did not want to trouble Sian too far. Olivia then walked to her room and closed the door. I don't know why tonight her heart was so tight and hurt. He did not like to see Sian turning cold to him. He only wanted Sian to remain ordinary to him, just like he had when they had just met.

The next day Olivia felt the atmosphere between herself and Sian was awkward. He who had been up since early in the morning to prepare a breakfast menu in the kitchen looked clumsy when Sian began to walk closer to the kitchen. Many times he squeezed his hands and tried to hide his nervousness by drenching his throat with water. But it was completely useless for him because he still felt nervous when he felt the presence of Sian next to him.
“Good morning.” Sapa Sian relaxed while pouring white water into his glass.
“Sse good morning.” replied Olivia stammered as she walked away towards the dining table. Sian who noticed Olivia's strange behavior only looked at Olivia flat and chose not to discuss it. He knew that the woman still felt guilty about him because of their conversation yesterday. But it is true because he did not like when the woman began to discuss about her departure from this house. Somehow he was not willing if Olivia had to leave, had to leave him again with a void that he had not felt for a long time. Ever since Tiffany left, she could no longer feel the beauty of the world. But after Olivia came, she felt everything was starting to change. He felt his feelings were no longer empty and he felt his life was more meaningful because he had someone he wanted to protect.

Olivia reflexively looked up at her head when she heard the sound of a chair in front of her
pushed slowly. The woman with a stiff face tried to smile at Sian who actually could not see his face anymore. Both of his eyes were now completely blind. He could no longer see the faint face of Sian as he used to because he was late to come to the hospital as promised by Dr. Hermes a few days ago and made a donor cornea that had been prepared for him used by others.
“What are you cooking today?”
“Chicken and rice soup. Sian.. forgive me.” said Olivia lirih. Sian looked at Olivia flat and scooped her food in silence. He actually did not need an apology from the woman, he just needed the woman to be by his side.
“Sian, why are you just silent?” olivia asked softly with tears that began to pool in her clear eyes. Again, Sian was silent. He made no small noise and ate only the food Olivia had cooked slowly.
“Sian I... I won't leave here. Ii'm sorry. But please don't silence me like this.” isak Olivia sounds raucous. Slowly Sian stood up from his seat and walked closer towards Olivia's fragile body trembling. The man suddenly hugged Olivia from behind to make Olivia gasp in shock and almost pushed Sian's body backwards. But persistently Sian maintained their position and remained silent for quite a long time in that position.
“Do not go. I need you here Olive.”
“Aa I won't go. Please let me go.” said Olivia nervously. Sian then releases his arms from Olivia's body and returns to his seat. After hugging Olivia somehow her feelings became light. And then he remembered Tiffany. He used to feel the same way when he was with Tiffany. Maybe I'm starting to like it?
Sian looked at Olivia deeply while thinking about all her feelings that had begun to change since Olivia's arrival. But he did not want to jump to conclusions too quickly because it felt very impossible. From the beginning of seeing Olivia, he felt very sorry for her. Blindly, he had to struggle to make money to survive and seek treatment to operate his eyes. Not to mention the situation of his house that is very concerned to make Sian not have the heart and decided to bring Olivia to his house, thinking of Olivia as his sister and making her his friend can keep him away from the void that has been holding him back since Tiffany's departure.
“How is your eye condition now?”
Suddenly Sian asked about a topic that had been bothering Olivia a bit lately.
“Bad. I have total blindness.”
“Didn't you go to the hospital to check it out?” tanya Sian flat. A second later Sian alluded to her tone because it made Olivia's face even more cloudy in front of her. He didn't mean to hurt the woman. He just. I don't know, he doesn't know with his own feelings. He's clear
feeling sad at the woman's condition, but he just couldn't express it.
“I was late to check my eyes into the hospital, and the cornea donor that should have been used for me had been used by someone else.”
“It's okay, you can wait for another corneal donor later.” Sian said gently as she stroked the back of Olivia's hand. Olivia gave a small nod and tried to smile in front of Sian with her sweet smile.
“Sian, did you... miss Tiffany?”
Olivia asked hesitantly while showing her unpleasant face in front of Sian. Throughout the night he hears a noise from Sian's room which is evoked from past videos of the man with his lover. Seeing this made Olivia sad because the man still harbored his sorrow for the lover who had left, but he never shared the sadness with her.
“It's none of your business.” replied Sian flatly. Again Sian turned into an extremely rude cold male figure. Immediately Olivia bowed her face and re-entered her delayed breakfast. He thought that Sian had considered him part of his family. But it turns out he was wrong. He was still a stranger in the life of Sian who would never gain a privileged position in the eyes of Sian. Unfortunately sometimes he does not know himself and wants more than just this relationship. He wanted to be a part of Sian and make the man forget his sorrow for the long-gone lover.
“Don't think too much of me. Just think about your own health. Do not force yourself to work, go to the hospital today.”
After saying that Sian immediately went to her room and left Olivia alone with all sorts of feelings raging in her heart. The woman felt very guilty for scraping back the old wounds that Sian had closed tightly. He then exhaled a small breath and stood up to clean the dirty dishes on the dining table.

The night is getting late. Sian shook to himself in the office while thinking about his strange feelings as well as Olivia's. This morning before he left for the office, he had seen Olivia wiping her tears in the living room. I don't know why the woman was crying, but her feelings strongly say that the cause of the woman's sadness is her. This morning he was clearly being unfriendly to the woman as early in the morning. Ever since Olivia said she was leaving, she had become cringe-wracked and her heart was struck by a terrible vigilance. She is still afraid that Olivia will leave her even if she promises to stay by her side. But who can guarantee that one day Olivia won't leave? The two of them were just a pair of strangers who were met because of accident. Still, one day Olivia will run her own life with her loved ones and have a happy family.
Families...
That one sentence suddenly flashed across Sian's mind and made his heart cramped. Even since Tiffany's departure she no longer thought of a bond called family because for her the opportunity had long since Tiffanya died. But she is not willing if Olivia will one day go and form her own family.
Sian then got up from his seat and immediately grabbed the suit that was draped in the seat of roughness. Tonight he will tell Olivia if he wants her to be part of his family. A family that will never go anywhere and just continue to be by his side until he no longer breathes in the world.
“Hey, are you going home?”
Aciel who had just walked out of his room immediately greeted Sian who had been tidy with all his belongings. The happy aura emitted by Sian managed to make Aciel feel interested in holding the man for a while.
“Hmm... I'm going home, I'm tired.” added Sian reasoned.
“You sure? Usually you prefer to be in the office until late. Is this related to Olivia?” tanya Aciel tried to tease but was actually covered by her flat face as usual.
“Take it like that. By the way how is Eden now?” tanya Sian tried to shift the subject. For the time being, he was quite lazy to discuss Olivia's problem with Aciel because it was not his habit. Talking about women's problems, it has always been a favorite of Aciel because the man who had always been blind to things related to women.
“Good, Eden will always be fine as long as I'm with you. I know you don't want to talk to me about Olivia. All right, no problem. But I've been seeing you lately a little differently. Maybe you like Olivia.” said Aciel indifferently as he walked into her room. He will not hold Sian too long in his office because he realizes that Sian does not want to linger there. Meanwhile after Aciel left, Sian seemed to still stand in his place with a small smile thinking about Aciel's words which seemed to be true.
“I think I'm starting to like Olivia.” Sian muttered to himself with a face as the car he was driving began to walk away from Aciel's spacious office courtyard. His thoughts had made him conclude that he really liked Olivia. There was no way her heart would continue to feel troubled if she did not like Olivia. It was clear that he had always liked Olivia, only that he had never paid attention to her. During this time he was too late in his sadness because Tiffany left him so that he did not realize his own feelings that began to change to like Olivia. Olivia is a beautiful woman. Her soft side managed to make her always comfortable every time she was near the woman. Not to mention her innocent face that was very adorable, making her always at home looking at Olivia's face from a distance. Now he really can't wait to go home and give Olivia a very tight hug. He would tell the woman if he liked her and he wanted to make her his family.
Tiiinnn
Sian stepped on his brake pedal in surprise and stopped his car immediately when suddenly a bus passed in front of him at high speed. With a huff he swore softly at the careless bus driver who almost caused him harm. His life was almost lost by a mistake
not made. He stepped back on his gas pedal to continue his journey, but suddenly a hard hit hit the back of his car. He who was surprised because the hit reflex stepped on the gas pedal strongly and made him lose control of his car. The car he was driving drove forward at full speed, hitting anything that became a roadblock until at last the car was shuffled on the sidewalk with a fairly bad tilt. The passenger who was still wedged between the body of the car and the steering wheel tried to scream, asking for help from anyone to save his life who was at the tip of the horn. Unfortunately after that he felt his consciousness begin to thin out. The pain that plagued his entire body made him no longer able to maintain his consciousness and slowly made him close his two eyes peacefully.
The atmosphere of the night that was previously quiet, suddenly turned gripping after an accident that had never been expected before. Accidents that occur due to a car that stops suddenly make some road users immediately run to save the driver who is still trapped in the car. The sound of police sirens and ambulances increasingly sound dramatic enlivening the rescue action colored with commotion because the driver's body is seen torn in the car.
