A Girl Like Me

Nicole Ashanti understands why they are unable to love her as she deserves. Her sister, her identical twin sister, is constantly compared to her. She always understand and accept the unfair treatment. But, What if... A man, who she adores a lot, entered in the story but not in her life? The man she loves, is the boyfriend of her identical twin sister. She loves her twin very much. But what if... She felt tired all of a sudden? Is she will gonna accept the reality that she is a big loser in their family? When in fact, she did many sacrifices that only them, sisters, knows?

During the five years that Sophie Lord was married, she had been continuously doing IVFs and was finally able to become pregnant with Luke Shaw’s child. That same day, she saw Luke at the hospital with his secretary, Helen Jones. He was accompanying her for a pregnancy test. Sophie was devastated and asked Luke to choose between her and the child in Helen’s womb. “Let’s not make a fuss, Sophie. I’ll explain everything to you when I get back. You need to calm down first. I’m keeping this child no matter what.” He carefully supported Helen as they left, but what he didn’t see was the blood trickling down Sophie’s legs. Later on, when Sophie disappeared from Luke’s life, the latter brought down completely.

"I'll accept the hospital's offer. I leave for Italvia in two weeks." Vanessa Jahn stood by the window, pregnancy report in hand. On the other end of the call, Rob Lambert, the hospital director, sounded thrown. "Wait—what? After all this time? I've been trying to get you on board for years." She let out a humorless laugh. "Guess it finally felt like time for a change. Anyway, I've got a lot to wrap up before I go. We'll catch up later." She hung up. The ache in her heart lingered as she glanced back down at the report.

On the night of my 30th birthday, I waited until the early hours of the morning, but my husband, Theodore Hawk never showed up. Instead, I came across an Instagram post from his childhood sweetheart, Emily Gallagher. [What romantic is not the starry night, it is having you by my side.] In the picture, she was wearing a delicate, sky-blue camisole that revealed just enough to charm and seduce. A man stood close behind her, his hand firmly gripping her waist. The scene was set in the seaside villa that Theodore had gifted her, their figures intimately entwined under the soft glow of the night. Someone had commented beneath the post: [I can’t stand you two being this lovey-dovey all the time! Just get married already!] Emily had responded with a shy-face emoji. I had just liked the post when Theodore, who I had failed to reach all night, blew up my phone with calls. "Are you out of your mind, Camilla? Emi and I grew up together! If we wanted to be together, we would’ve done so long ago! Why are you being so petty?" Looking at how Theodore gently held her in his arms, comforting her, I realized something. Letting go of someone you’ve loved for seven years... can take only a moment.

My boyfriend has depression. To help cure him, I pass on the opportunity for a recital abroad. Instead, I accept commercial gigs so I can rake in the cash. After one performance, I see my boyfriend holding hands with a woman who looks like me in a private room. He wears a sharp suit and smiles so brightly that he doesn't even look ill. The people around him cheer and tease him. "You really are different with your true love back in the country. When are you two going to make things official?" "I heard you'd been dating another woman for seven years, though. Do you love her?" Charles Foster smiles indifferently. "I was just having some fun with her. Only an idiot like her would take me seriously." I sob with devastation while hiding behind a door. Suddenly, I feel like a fool for spending seven years with him. I call my mentor, who suggested that I take part in the international piano competition. "I will take part in the competition."

Eric, seorang mafia yang dipenuhi rasa balas dendam berkali-kali hampir mati dibunuh oleh keluarganya sendiri. benih-benih dendam berangsur membesar atas segala kesakitannya selama 4 tahun terakhir. hingga akhirnya ia dapat menduduki pangkat sebagai pemimpin para kelompok mafianya dan dinamai 'Elang'.Kemudian, ditengah pencariannya, ia bertemu dengan Ghea, gadis cantik lemah lembut. Ayah gadis itu merupakan orang yang sangat berjasa padanya dan ia meminta Eric untuk menjaganya saat ia meninggal.Seiring berjalannya waktu, keduanya saling mencintai. Namun dendam Eric membuat banyak kesulitan dalam hubungan mereka. Musuh saling menyerang, hingga terjadi banyak kejadian yang memilukan.Lalu apakah dendam Eric akan terus berlanjut demi Ghea? bagaimana Eric memecahkan kasus dan dendamnya tanpa melibatkan orang yang dicintainya? Atau berhenti meninggalkan hatinya yang suram demi gadis itu? Dan bagaimana Ghea menghentikan segala tindakan Eric yang menurutnya itu salah?

Berbeda dari gadis kebanyakan, dia terbilang unik. Hidupnya tidak ada kata repot. Apa yang ingin dia lakukan, akan dilakukan. Apa yang tidak, tentu tidak akan dilakukan. Disaat teman seusianya sibuk mempercantik diri dengan berbagai brand dan merek skincare, dia tidak. Dia lebih memilih mengoleksi berbagai macam makanan dan cemilan untuk perut rampingnya. Iya, sekalipun ia memiliki porsi makan yang cukup banyak dan berbagai cemilan yang selalu dia stok, tubuhnya tidak gemuk, bahkan cenderung kurus. "Ehe... Makan aja banyak, badan kering kerontang!" begitulah ungkapan yang sering dia dengar dari teman-temannya. Tapi dia tidak pernah ambil pusing, dia justru bangga dan akan menjawab "Banyak yang mau jadi aku, makan banyak tapi badan tetap kurus". Bukan hanya banyak makan tapi tubuh kurus yang menjadi karakteristiknya, kulitnya yang gelap cenderung coklat juga sering menjadi bahan ledekan teman-temannya. "Minum susu putih, biar putihan dikit kau", "Suntik putih dulu kau, biar gak hitam". Saat pernyataan-pernyataan seperti itu dia dengar, dia hanya diam. Sesekali mungkin dia akan menanggapi dengan nada sedikit bercanda "Kalian buta ya, kulitku ini coklat muda. Hitam dari mana coba?" Meski dalam hati, tentu dia merasa tidak percaya diri. Standar kecantikan 'memiliki kulit putih' membuatnya merasa tidak cantik. Tapi sebenarnya dia manis, hm.. tidak-tidak, kata manis bukan penghibur untuk mereka yang memiliki kulit dengan tona gelap. Dia benar-benar manis, di mata orang yang tepat. Dan lagi, bukan dia tidak berusaha untuk memiliki kulit yang cerah, bahkan mencoba cara instan dia pun pernah.

"I have never done this," I muttered, hypnotized by his eyes. "Nobody knows everything." He answered and gave me his hand. "You are so... so... So... beautiful." He was whispering his secret and I had his chiselled jaw wrapped in a small stubble beard in my hands. "You don't have to know anything. Follow me." He pulled me into his arms, he mumbled, I leaned over and kissed him. I cupped his cheeks and pulled him to kiss my lips. I want to savour those lips. He obeyed. He stormed into my life on a rainy day, one day just to shelter me. He was always uninvited into my life but once I tasted him, I realised I am more than I can be. He became My Taste I Like until I learnt his truth.
