72 Nabi Kristen

Barry Ocason, extreme sportsman and outdoor travel writer, receives a magazine in his mailbox and opens to an ad for an adventure in the Bavarian Alps. Initially dismissing the invitation, which seems to have been meant specifically for him, he soon finds himself involved in a larger plot and seeking answers to why an individual known only as the elephant man is terrorizing his family. Barry and his daughter Kristen, who survived a twin sister taken from the family at a young age, travel from Juneau, Alaska to the sinister Spider Festival in Rio Tago, Brazil, before he ultimately answers the call to Bavaria, where the puzzle begins to come together. Amid tribulation, death, madness, and institutionalization, a document emerges describing a scientist’s bloody bid to breed a theoretical “third twin,” which is believed to have the potential, through its connection with its siblings, to bridge the gulf between life and afterlife. The godlike creature that soon emerges turns out to be Barry’s own offspring, and she has dark plans for the world of her conception that neither her father nor any other mortal can stop. ©️ Crystal Lake Publishing

My husband, Alex Carter, is a top AI engineer. He one day gets drugged by a new intern at his company, and one night of chaos follows. He calls me the next morning, his voice hoarse from a hangover and filled with unfamiliar panic. "Em, I messed up. But don't worry. I gave her enough money to disappear from this city." After ten years together, I believe it is just a momentary lapse in judgment. Six months later, Alex's company suffers the worst cyber attack in its history, with core data hanging by a thread. I rush back from a fragrance exhibition in Astral, only to witness a scene at the data center entrance that sends me into shock. Alex stands outside the tightly sealed door, his face showing a weariness and guilt I have never seen before. The doctor says that the intern, Brooke Anderson, is three months pregnant and has spent 72 hours with him in the high-radiation server room. Now, she shows signs of miscarriage. Later, Brooke gives birth to twins, a boy and a girl. The entire Carter family is ecstatic. I remove the wedding ring that has accompanied me for ten years, my fingertips turning ice cold. I dial the number saved with only one letter "S" and say, "Mr. Sullivan, I accept the collaboration you proposed last time." A low, soft laugh comes from the other end of the line. "Ms. Emma Shaw, that's a wise decision."

Maryam tidak menyadari kalau cinta mereka akan diuji oleh perbedaan. Sanggupkah mereka menghadapi ujian perbedaan itu?

Orangtuaku juga orangtuamu tak setuju jika kita bersatu.” Maryam “Aku belum pernah merasakan cinta sehebat dan sedahsyat ini. Kaulah cinta pertamaku, dan aku bahagia bisa mencintaimu. Tapi sayang, kebahagiaan ini begitu singkat. Kebahagiaan ini tidak lebih seperti kupu-kupu yang sangat singkat hidupnya menikmati keindahan bunga-bunga di taman.” ____ "Kau tahu, apa yang membuat Nabi Muhammad selalu tenang dalam menghadapi masalah dalam hidupnya? Rahasianya cuma satu, Maryam. Karena beliau selalu menjaga cintanya pada Allah. Beliau tidak pernah melebihkan cintanya pada siapapun selain-Nya. Berhentilah menangis. Jangan sampai cintamu itu membuat Allah berpaling darimu, Maryam." Tentang Penulis : Hakayi adalah sebuah nama pena dari Hengki Kumayandi. Novel ini pernah diterbitkan oleh Penerbit Wahyu Qolbu dan beredar di toko buku nasional dan best seller pada masanya. Cover by Ineedcreative

Me estaba muriendo por envenenamiento por plata, todo por salvar a mi familia. Y ahora Marcus, mi prometido, el Alfa que había jurado nunca abandonarme, quería que le entregara mi riñón sano para dárselo a Celeste, la hija adoptiva de mis padres. A nadie le importa si vivo o muero. Así que rechacé el tratamiento conservador y me inyecté la poción de vida de una bruja. ¿El precio? En 72 horas, moriría de una falla total de todos mis órganos. En esos tres días, le entregué a Celeste mi centro de sanación privado, el que construí con mis propias manos. Mamá y papá estaban radiantes de alegría. —Qué bueno que por fin maduraste, mi niña. Ahora sí estás cuidando a tu hermana. Marcus quiso posponer nuestra boda para cuidar a Celeste. Lo acepté con calma. Me felicitó por finalmente ser comprensiva. Incluso le cedí a Celeste mi puesto como sanadora en jefe de la manada. Mis padres y Marcus estaban tan emocionados que planearon una gran fiesta para celebrarla. Invitaron a todas las personas importantes de la manada para festejar su nuevo cargo. Solo una cosa me daba curiosidad. Cuando muriera, ¿derramarían cuando menos una lágrima por mí?

“Laki-laki itu tidak perlu ijin istri untuk menikah lagi,” katanya. Mendengar ucapan Ayah bisa kulihat Ibu malah tertunduk lagi, ada apa sebenarnya? kenapa dia hanya diam tanpa suara? “Dari sekian banyak sunah nabi kenapa harus poligami, Riana biar kutanya langsung padamu, bersediakah kamu jadi istri kedua suamiku?” “Hmm, aku, tolong kasih aku waktu, aku engga bisa ngasih keputusan sekarang,” jawab Riana. “Kenapa nak Riana bukannya kamu dan Bagas sudah saling kenal, bukankah kalian sudah dekat sejak kuliah?” tanya Ayah mertua. Hah? Apa ini jadi mereka pernah dekat? Kenapa hidup serumit ini. Lagi-lagi aku hanya bisa tersenyum menyaksikan permainan takdirku. “Kenapa Dek, kenapa kamu malah senyum,” Mas bagas menatap heran ke arahku, raut mukanya tampak gelisah mungkin dia takut aku akan meledak. “Kenapa dunia ini begitu sempit Mas? kamu sendiri gimana? maukah menikahi mantan teman sebangkuku?” Aku harus memastikan ini sendiri disaksikan kedua orang tuanya. Dia lagi-lagi tak menjawab. “Tentu saja suamimu tidak akan menolak menikah dengan wanita cantik seperti Riana, toh mereka juga sudah saling mengenal,” sambar ayah mertuaku. “Kalau tolak ukur menikahi wanita hanya dilihat dari kecantikannya, apakah setelah menikah ada jaminan dia akan memiliki anak laki-laki, kalau tidak bukankah semuanya sia-sia.” Rasa sakit tak melulu harus ditampakkan dengan air mata, dan senyum tak selamanya memiliki arti bahagia. Senyum itu mampu menghilangkan luka walau hanya sekejap. Memberikan kekuatan baru agar aku bisa lebih kuat menghadapi kenyataan pahit.

The doctor told me I had 72 hours left, unless I got access to the newest experimental treatment. However, there was only one slot available, and my husband Bowen Liddell gave it to my sister Yvonne Lawson instead. "Her kidney failure is more critical," he said. I nodded and swallowed the white pills that would only speed up my death. In the time I had left, I got a lot done. The lawyer's hand trembled as he passed me the documents. "Are you sure you want to transfer the two billion dollars in shares?" I replied, "Yes. Give them to Yvonne." My daughter, Candice Liddell, was giggling in Yvonne's arms. "Mommy Yvonne bought me a new dress!" I said, "It looks beautiful. Make sure you always listen to Mommy Yvonne, okay?" The art gallery I built from the ground up now had Yvonne's name on the sign. "You're too kind, Kathy," she said, crying. I told her, "You'll run it even better than I ever did." I even signed all my parents' trust fund away. That was when Bowen finally gave me his first genuine smile in years. "Kathleen, you've changed. You're not so aggressive anymore... You're beautiful like this." Indeed. This dying version of me finally became the 'perfect Kathleen Sullivan' in their eyes—obedient, generous, and no longer argumentative. The 72-hour countdown had already begun, and I couldn't help but wonder what they would remember when my heart stopped for good. The good wife who 'finally learned to let go', or the woman who completed her revenge by dying?

~You were there when my heart fell for you, but you were never there when my heart yearned for you, still, you never got out of my heart~ I thought it was good to leave because it seemed like they were on their date. I turned around suddenly Newt called. 'Prisha, is that you? Wow! what a pleasant surprise..." I slowly turned towards him, forcing a smile, and replied, "Hey! Newt, nice to see you..." "What are you doing here? Where is your friend Kriste? It is a little awkward to see you without her. I have noticed you two going everywhere together be it washroom as well," he mocked chuckling. Even though I didn't found it even a little funny, I forced a smile and replied, "I am just wandering around the town alone. As I was bored staying home. And about Kristen, she might be busy somewhere." "Oh! anyway come and join us. I want to introduce you to my..." "Girlfriend," before his words were completed my mind had already said it loud. so, I hastily interrupted him, "I am so sorry. I need to rush back home. My mom called me twice. Bye..." Before he could react, I was already out of the restaurant at great speed. The sky was covered with heavy black clouds and soon one after another drops of rain drip down along with my tears. I walked few steps but was not able to go any further. I fell on my knees getting weak to stand and slowly eyes got blur. Soon, I collapsed on the ground and before my eyes were forced to shut, I saw someone walking towards me.

When Tessa Shoreman read Henry Jennings' cancer report, she immediately paid her hard-earned money of sixty thousand to the hospital. She had saved the money from working part-time while she was in university. However, she was worried the money was not enough, so she held back her fear as she sold a kidney to the black market to get more. As she walked to the ward door with a heavy bag filled with cash, she heard shrill laughter coming from inside. "That cheap woman, Tessa Shoreman, got tricked by us again. Haha!" Tessa's hand gave pause right when she was about to push the door open. What did he mean by saying she was tricked? Tessa looked through the glass on the door to see inside the ward. When she left, the man looked extremely weak, but he was now sitting up lazily in bed. Henry had a cigarette in his mouth, and he was blowing smoke rings nonchalantly. He did not look like a cancer patient at all. "It's been two years, and that woman still has no idea." "If she hadn't beaten Serene to first place, Henry would never have left behind his life as a rich heir and planned such an elaborate scheme to become a working-class man living in a cheap rental home. The way that cheap, penniless woman looks at Henry is so amusing." "We agreed that the punishment ends when Henry and Serene get engaged. It looks like time is almost up. We've probably punished her 108 times in the past two years." "The first time was lying to her that Henry didn't have a suit for a job interview. She worked tirelessly for 72 hours straight before she earned enough money for one, but that suit was given to the domestic help to use as a cleaning cloth. The second time was tricking her into believing Henry had a high fever. She forfeited during the finals of a scientific research competition to race home and take care of Henry in the hospital…" "Sigh. Too bad it's coming to an end. I'm going to miss entertaining myself with her."

Flora hancur. Ia pergi membawa luka dan sebuah rahasia besar—bahwa ia tengah mengandung anak Nathan yang kini berusia empat bulan dalam kandungannya. Tak ingin anaknya tumbuh dalam lingkungan penuh kebencian, Flora memilih untuk diam dan menghilang. Ia pindah ke sebuah desa terpencil bersama neneknya yang bernama Marlina, yang kini sudah rentan berusia 72 tahun, lalu melahirkan seorang bayi perempuan cantik dan manis yang ia beri nama Nayla, dia putih bermata khas seperti ayahnya. Flora Andini, seorang wanita yang kini berusia 24 tahun dan tubuh mungil itu harus membesarkan Nayla dengan penuh kasih sayang, menjalani kehidupan sederhana sebagai petani, meskipun hidup dalam keterbatasan, namun damai. Tiga tahun berlalu. Kehidupan Flora tampak tenang meski sering kali dihimpit kesulitan ekonomi. Nayla, putrinya, tumbuh menjadi gadis kecil yang cerdas dan manis. Namun, takdir kembali mempertemukannya dengan masa lalu. Perusahaan Marshall Group membuka sebuah proyek besar di dekat desa tempat Flora tinggal. Nathan turun langsung untuk meninjau proyek tersebut dan tanpa sengaja ia melihat Flora bersama Nayla. Seketika hatinya terusik—wajah Nayla terlalu mirip dengannya. Terlalu familiar untuknya. Didorong oleh rasa penasaran yang besar, Nathan meminta asistennya untuk melakukan penyelidikan. Hasil penyelidikan itu mengguncang hatinya: Nayla adalah anak kandungnya. "Nayla anakku, bukan anakmu! Ia bukan bagian dari keluarga Marshall!” seru Flora di malam itu, setelah Nathan mengembalikan Nayla yang sempat menghilang selama hampir 24 jam. Peristiwa itu membuat Flora dan neneknya panik bukan main. “Dia anakku, Flora! Kau tak bisa terus mengelak!” Nathan membalas dengan nada tinggi. “Bagaimanapun, darahku mengalir di tubuh Nayla. Ia adalah darah dagingku!”
