In the quiet life they share, Maria and Ethan seem like any ordinary couple—until vivid, haunting dreams begin to unravel a love story neither can explain. The dreams pull them back to 1940s France, into the heart of World War II, where they see themselves as Marie, a brave young woman fighting for the Resistance, and David, an American spy embedded within enemy ranks. Each night, the dreams grow stronger, filling them with memories that feel intensely real. Maria recounts scenes of sabotage and whispered meetings in shadowed alleys, while Ethan recalls the weight of choices and a brief encounter with Marie on a bridge that neither can forget. Through their dreams, they realize that they’re remembering a past life—a time when they were caught on opposing sides of a brutal war, yet found themselves drawn together despite the odds. As Maria and Ethan piece together this love story across lifetimes, they uncover an unbreakable bond, one that defied even the boundaries of war. But the dreams also bring new challenges in the present, awakening emotions and fears that threaten to shake the life they’ve built together. Together, they must come to terms with a love that’s transcended time, where fate, duty, and sacrifice once tore them apart—and may yet have the power to bring them closer than ever before.

To clean or not to clean, is that even a question? Pavlo was born in a relatively poor family. Yet, thanks to his vivid intelligence and innate energy that always pushed him for the greater heights he became... a mobster. As soon as he came of age, the local organisation took him under his wings, quickly recognising his talents. Before the first digit of his age changed or even came close to turning four, he was already responsible for managing the vast financial empire of his new family! But everything has its own price. In the organisation like his, superiors always had to feel the breath of their subordinate on their necks. Sadly for Pavlo, what he felt was not the breath, but the cold steel of the autonomous truck that smashed his body into bits. A pitiful end sprinkled with the salty realisation that said truck was a product developed by the company that Pavlo used to launder the organisation money in the first place! Just like revolution eats its own children, so did Pavlo's investment claim its creator's life. But how could he see just a set of primitive bars instead of the glorious gate of the heaven... or more precisely, the stinky depths of the hell? And most importantly, what the hell are those flashing letters that seemed to have some majestic aura to them? WHAT DOES THE ULTIMATE CLEANING SYSTEM EVEN MEAN?
