"He is no hero, but he is willing to fight for her..." Abigail fucking Howard! Typical sweet girl, a nerdy girl who always has that cute button nose of hers buried inside a book. She wants to be an author and she's got what it takes. She has also got her whole life planned out. Study, get her degree, then get an internship in some publishing company and work her way to becoming the best selling author. I could also see her getting married to some preppy rich guy who is going to be a lawyer and then they'd have two kids and live happily ever after, cool story right? Wrong! I was wrong because Abigail wants me and the crazy thing is I want her too! I have for a long time but the problem is I am not good enough for her and I am mixed up in too many fucked up shits to be the man she wants me to be. I am not the hero she reads in those romance books of hers, I am no hero and I'll never be!

"Enak," ucap Andi, merasakan nikmat yang tiada tara. Namun berbeda dengan Febby yang tidak merasakan klimaks sama sekali. Wajahnya menyiratkan kekecewaan mendalam. "Sudah keluar Mas? Kok cepet banget, ngga sampai satu menit. Perasaan baru masuk." Febby mengeluh sambil menghela napas panjang. Sudah sering dia mengatakan kalau dia tidak pernah puas dengan permainan suaminya. Dia juga tidak pernah merasa ada yang keluar dari bagian inti tubuh, yang menandakan dia belum mencapai puncak. Namun Andi seolah masa bodo. Yang penting nafsunya tersalurkan. "Aku lelah. Tadi itu aku udah berusaha untuk lama, tapi malah keluarnya cepet." Selesai melampiaskan hasrat, Andi berbaring di sebelah istrinya tanpa merasa bersalah sama sekali. Raut kesal dan kecewa terlihat jelas di wajah Febby, yang selama dua tahun menjadi istri sah Andi. Selama dua tahun itu dia tidak pernah merasakan klimaks saat berhubungan dengan suaminya. Kenikmatan hanya dirasakan oleh Andi, bahkan Andi tidak pernah membuatnya nyaman di atas ranjang. Andi juga kurang perhatian, hanya memikirkan diri sendiri. Pernikahan dua tahun terasa semakin hambar bagi Febby. Namun tidak ada yang bisa dilakukan. Toh Febby yang memilih laki-laki itu menjadi suaminya dan mereka sedang menjalani program kehamilan. Ya, Andi dan Febby sudah didesak oleh kedua orang tua mereka agar secepatnya memiliki anak, tetapi sampai detik ini tidak ada tanda-tanda Febby mengandung buah cinta mereka. "Kamu mau langsung tidur Mas?" tanya Febby pada suaminya yang baru saja pulang kerja dan meminta dilayani. Selesai dilayani, Andi berbaring di ranjang sambil memejamkan mata. "Iya, aku ngantuk. Kamu masak makan malam aja dulu. Kalau udah mateng semua, bangunin." Febby menghela napas panjang, turun dari ranjang lalu memakai pakaian satu per satu. Matanya melirik Andi yang terlelap, padahal baru saja kepala suaminya itu bersandar ke atas bantal. Tidak ada ucapan terima kasih. I love you. Atau gombalan yang keluar dari mulut Andi, membuat Febby merasa tidak dicintai sama sekali. "Mandi dulu dong Mas, masa langsung tidur." "Hem," sahut Andi datar. Selesai memakai pakaian, Febby melangkah mendekati pintu lalu keluar. Sedangkan Andi sudah jauh mengarungi mimpi. Langkah kaki Febby dihentikan oleh ibu mertua di ambang pintu dapur. Wanita paruh baya itu menatap wajah menantunya yang lesu sambil mengerutkan kening. "Kamu kenapa, Feb?" "Ngga apa-apa Bu," jawab Febby, pelan, melanjutkan langkah kakinya mendekati kulkas. Ratih mengikuti Febby ke dapur, membantu menantunya menyiapkan bahan makanan. Sejak kemarin wanita paruh baya itu menginap di rumah kontrakan dua kamar tersebut. Satu bangunan rumah yang baru dua bulan ditempati itu berada di komplek perumahan Melati. Rencananya Andi ingin mencicil rumah yang mereka tempati sekarang agar tidak bayar kontrakan lagi. "Suami kamu mana, Feb?" tanya Ratih. "Mas Andi tidur Bu. Katanya capek," jawab Febby seraya mengeluarkan bahan makanan dari dalam kulkas dua pintu. Beberapa jenis sayur dan ikan segar dia letakan di dekat wastafel untuk dibersihkan. "Kamu udah konsultasi lagi ke Dokter Kandungan?" tanya Ratih pada menantunya. "Udah Bu, katanya aku sama Mas Andi harus sering minum vitamin biar subur. Aku udah dikasih resep vitamin itu. Semoga aja ada kabar baik bulan depan." "Amin," ucap Ratih. "Selain berkonsultasi ke Dokter, kamu juga harus pergi ke Dukun beranak. Atau ke mana kek. Biar kamu cepet isi." "Udah Bu, tapi emang dasarnya belum dikasih aja. Kalau memang belum rejekinya, ya mau gimana lagi." "Kalau gitu, coba kamu konsultasi ke Dokter lain. Misalnya ke Dokter Dirga. Dia sepupunya Andi. Siapa tahu dia bisa bantu kalian. Kasih saran apa untuk membantu mempercepat kehamilan kamu." Febby terdiam. Sebenarnya sudah beberapa kali mereka gonta-ganti dokter, tetapi tidak ada perubahan sama sekali. Beberapa dokter juga menyarankan untuk memeriksa kesuburan satu sama lain, namun Andi selalu menolak dan mengatakan kalau dia sehat. Sementara, selama berhubungan Febby tidak pernah merasa puas. Bahkan durasinya hanya sebentar, tidak sampai tiga menit langsung crott. "Lebih baik kamu coba dulu saran Ibu," ucap Ratih yang selalu mendesak Febby agar cepat hamil. Andai kehamilan bisa dibeli, Febby akan membelinya agar bisa secepatnya memberi gelar ayah pada sang suami. "Kalau kamu ragu, mending komunikasikan dulu sama Andi. Biar kalian lebih yakin. Ibu sih percaya sama Dokter Dirga. Banyak kok pasien dia yang berhasil hamil." Febby menghela napas panjang. "Nanti aku coba bicarakan sama Mas Andi. Kalau dia mau, besok aku dan Mas Andi ke tempat praktek Dokter itu." Ratih tersenyum, "Nanti alamatnya Ibu kasih ke kamu. Kamu dan Andi langsung ke sana aja. Nanti Ibu bikin janji biar kalian ngga antri." "Iya Bu, makasih." Saat sedang berbincang, Andi datang mendekati kedua wanita di dapur. Pria yang memiliki tinggi 170cm itu duduk di depan meja makan dengan lesu. "Bikinin aku kopi," katanya memerintah Febby. "Tunggu sebentar Mas. Aku lagi masak." "Ck! Aku maunya sekarang!" Andi mengeraskan suaranya, membuat Febby terhenyak kaget. Ratih dan Febby saling tatap, Ibu mertuanya itu memutar bola mata meminta Febby menurut saja. "Biasa aja dong Mas, jangan marah begitu," sahut Febby kesal. "Kamu ini. Suami minta kopi malah nanti-nanti. Utamakan melayani suami dulu, baru yang lain! Gimana sih!" cecar Andi memarahi Febby. Ratih hanya diam, tak membela menantunya ataupun menasehati Andi. Baginya pemandangan seperti itu sudah biasa terjadi. Dia pun mengalami di rumah. "Sabar Mas." Terpaksa Febby menunda masakannya dan membuat kopi untuk Andi yang sudah tidak sabar. Dengan perasaan kesal, Febby meletakkan kopi hitam pesanan suaminya ke atas meja. "Mau apa lagi Mas? Sekalian aja, aku mau masak." Andi melotot, menatap istrinya seperti ingin menelan hidup-hidup. "Kamu ngga iklhas?" "Bukan ngga ikhlas Mas, aku kan cuma nanya sama kamu. Kamu mau apa lagi? Biar aku ambilin sekalian." "Ngga ada, aku cuma mau kopi." "Ya udah," sahut Febby pelan. Ia kembali melanjutkan memasak makan malam, meski perasaannya kesal. Sikap dingin Andi sudah berlangsung lebih dari satu tahun. Tanpa alasan yang jelas, Andi tiba-tiba jadi kasar dan bahasanya tidak pernah lembut seperti dulu. Febby curiga suaminya memiliki wanita idaman lain di luar sana, namun ia tidak pernah mendapatkan bukti apapun perselingkuhan itu. Suasana hening. Di ruang dapur yang tidak luas itu hanya terdengar suara dentingan sendok dan panci. "Mumpung ada Andi di sini. Ibu ngomong aja langsung sama kalian berdua." Ratih membuka pembicaraan di ruang sunyi itu. Andi mendongak, "Ngomong apa Bu?" tanyanya datar. "Ibu mau ngasih saran, gimana kalau kamu dan Febby konsultasi aja ke Dokter Dirga. Sepupu kamu itu. Dia kan Dokter kandungan terkenal. Kebetulan dia buka praktek di Jakarta. Kalian bisa ke sana. Kalau kamu mau, nanti Ibu bikin janji sama dia. Biar kalian ngga antri panjang. Maklum, pasien dia kan banyak." Andi manggut-manggut. "Oke, aku setuju. Aku dan Febby akan ke sana." Ratih tersenyum. Ia tatap menantunya yang tengah sibuk mengaduk sayur di dalam panci. "Kamu dengar kan. Suami kamu setuju. Kamu juga setuju kan?" tanya Ratih pada menantunya itu. "Iya Bu, aku setuju," jawab Febby.Oh my God! Nicholas was kissing me!He was kissing me! And goddamn he could kiss!His lips were pressed firmly against mine as we moved in perfect sync. I moaned when Nicholas angled my head so he could kiss me better and I wrapped my arms around him, bringing him closer to me. Nicholas let our groan from his chest as he suddenly pushed me back against the couch not breaking the kiss. His lips were soft but they kissed me firmly. Our tongues danced with each other, exploring each other's taste."Abigail." Nicholas breathed out my name as he moved to my neck.I gasped as Nicholas assaulted my neck with kisses. I fisted my shirt in his hands as he pressed himself against me, careful not to let his all his weight rest on me."Ahhh Nic..." | breathed out when he reached up to cup my breast, swiping his thumb across my nipple. They were super sensitive to his touch, in fact my whole body was. Nicholas returned back to kissing me and I moaned as I brought my legs up needing him close to him
Nicholas didn't come home and we didn't know where he went either. I tried calling him several times but he didn't pick and soon I was directed to the voicemail. We cleared out the food and the garden then went outside to go and wait for Nicholas but he didn't show up. We were all worried and I have no idea where he could have gone."You...you don't think he went back to New York, do you?" Gavin asked as we waited outside for Nicholas.I shook my head at him. "No, no, Nicholas wouldn't do that."Grace nodded her head at me. "Yeah, he wouldn't leave her behind at least." She motioned to me and I frowned but didn't say anything."Alright then, I'll ask some of the guys to be on the look out for him." Gavin suggested but I shook my head at him."Please don't do that." I told him, "He will come back. Just...just give him the space he needs."Grace sighed warily. "She's right Gavin, just don't worry about it.""Okay, just call me when he gets back." Gavin said pulling Grace into his arms.G
ABIGAILIt was almost evening when Gavin showed up. We decided to have our food outside in the garden. We had decorated the garden before Gavin showed up. We had brought out some flowers to put on the table to make it pretty. Next we had decorated the whole garden with string bulbs. It was very beautiful. Gavin was a man in his mid forties. He was actually cute. He had a blonde buzz cut and we'll trimmed beard. He had startling blue eyes and he had dimples whenever he smiled. When he showed up I had to admit I was a little wary of him at first. I love Grace like she was my mother and I'll do anything to protect her. But Gavin came and brought her a bouquet of flowers and a bottle of wine with him. He was also nervous when he took in the full house and I saw the way he looks at Grace when she wasn't looking. I knew right then that he was okay, not like I had any say in it though. I turned to look at Nicholas who had been surprisingly quiet after the announcement. I keep expecting hi
Turns out where Nicholas wanted me to go with him was to his house. Today was his mother, Grace's birthday and I wished he had told me earlier so I could have gotten her a gift or Esmerelda. It's been years since we last saw each other and I didn't want to show up without a gift. But Nicholas assured me it was fine. That Grace and Esmerelda just wanted to see me. Trevor and Carlacia made a fuss about dressing me and what I should wear. They had ransacked my wardrobe till they finally found the perfect dress for my date, even though I had told them repeatedly it wasn't a date. They didn't answer me and dressed me up instead. I was dressed in a thin strap white gown with blue flowery patterns on it. The gown complimented my figure and it stopped somewhere around the knees. It also had a small slit at the front. I wore a pair of white socks and white sneakers. Carlacia had done my hair, she had made it so my brown hair cascaded in waves down my back. Trevor had helped with the makeup,
ABIGAILMy friends all stared at me with their mouths agape. It was a free lecture day and we were busy lazying around in our room when Carlacia questioned me about Kincaid. Trevor also decided to ask the question too. I knew I couldn't hide it from them anymore so I decided to tell them. Though I omitted some truths about Nicholas's past. It wasn't my story to tell."So let me get this straight, yeah?" Carlacia asked, "Kincaid is the guy you grew up with when you were little but you guys got separated because you had to transfer to another school and now you guys are finally back together, schooling in the same university?""I think that pretty much sums about everything." I nodded my head at her while she blinked at me."Holy shit!" Carlacia cursed taking in the information.Trevor turned to look at me. "Wow, but why did u not tell us about this? That you knew each other."I shifted nervously on my seat, not sure how to answer that. "We weren't exactly on good terms, we are still no
"What? Kincaid?""What does he want with her?""You know this guy Abby?"All around me the questions were asked by my friends. But I just stood still, my fists clenched. I raised my eyes only to see the bouncer was waiting for my answer while shooting a bored look at my friends who were still interrogating him."I'll go." I announced surprising my friends.Ryan let out a gasp. "What? Abby you can't be serious."I turned to shoot him a small smile. "I am. I'll go see him.""Fuck this." Carlacia cursed from behind me as she stood in front of the bouncer. "If she goes, we are coming with." She said with a note of finality in her tone and my other friends nodded their heads in agreement.The bouncer merely arched a brow up at us. "Miss Abigail Howard was the one who Kincaid requested for. If you all are so eager to meet him, I suggest you book a ticket.""Why you fucking big headed..." Carlacia spat moving towards the bouncer but I pulled her back before she makes a huge mistake."It's ok
