Anak Sma Mesum

Three years after our breakup, I ran into my ex-girlfriend, and she had her new boyfriend by her side. "Hey, isn't that Henry the expert?" Diego Stanley taunted with a smirk. "Three years post-breakup, and you're slumming it here playing with clay?" I furrowed my brow, ignored them, and carefully moved the Victorian-era porcelain musician figurine onto its preset base in the display case. When I wasn't biting, he reached out to grab the figurine from my arms. "What's this junk you're treating like gold? Let me take a look." Cynthia Wyatt frowned, her voice laced with that familiar arrogance. "Henry, I've given you three years to shape up, and you're still the same loser? Come on, hand over that clay doll to Diego. Don't kill the vibe. If you play nice, I might even reconsider our old engagement." As Diego's hand neared the figurine, I dodged quickly and barked, "Hands off! It's a historical artifact!" Diego got pissed off and shoved me hard. "Some flea market find, and you're acting all high and mighty?" In the ensuing scuffle, I lost my balance, and the figurine slipped from my grasp, crashing to the floor. That sealed their fate. This entitled pair was about to go bankrupt trying to fix it.

Di tahun kesepuluh pernikahanku, mantan sahabatku memposting sebuah foto. Putrinya dan putraku masing-masing digendong olehnya dan suamiku. Keempat orang itu berdiri berdekatan dan di bawah foto itu tertulis: "Sudah sepasang 'kan anak-anak kami?" Aku berkomentar untuk foto itu, Pasangan yang sempurna. Detik berikutnya, postingan itu dihapus. Keesokan harinya, suamiku bergegas pulang dan bertanya padaku, "Susah payah aku membuat kondisi Sophie membaik, kenapa kamu malah cari ribut?" Putraku bahkan mendorong dan menuduhku, "Ini semua salahmu! Adikku jadi menangis." Aku mengeluarkan surat cerai dan melemparkannya ke wajah mereka. "Ya, ini salahku! Jadi biar aku yang pergi, semoga kalian berempat jadi keluarga bahagia!"

Tila sanay na sa mga pagsubok ng buhay Amara Santos. Lumaki siyang kinakayod ang lahat para sa kakambal niyang si Selene, na may malubhang sakit na matagal ng dinadala. Ang tanging liwanag sa kanyang madilim na mundo ay ang kanyang kasintahang si Liam dela Cruz, anak ng alkalde. Simula pagkabata, siya na ang kanyang sandigan—ang lalaking nangakong mamahalin siya kahit anong mangyari. Ngunit, isang masaklap na kapalaran ang dumating sa buhay nya. Sa kritikal na oras ng kanyang kapatid sa ospital, iniwan siya ni Liam at ipinagpalit sa isang babae na makakatulong sa kanyang ambisyon na pumasok sa politika. At sa isang iglap, natagpuan niya ang sarili sa isang hukay na isang paraan lang ang kalalabasan. "Pakakasalan mo ako, at ibibigay ko sa’yo ang lahat ng kailangan mo." Sino ang lalaking ito? Si Ethan? Si Ethan Alcantara. "Simple lang ang kasunduan, Amara," sagot ni Ethan. "Ikaw ang magiging asawa ko, at sa mata ng publiko, magiging perpekto tayong magkapareha. Kapalit niyan, matutulungan ko ang kapatid mo." Tila isang malafairy tale na tagpo ang nangyayari sa buhay ni Amara, at sa palubog niyang kumunoy ay mayroon siyang prince charming na tagapag sagip. Mararanasan nga ba nya ang maging prinsesa? O isa na naman itong pag-papanggap na mapipilitan siyang ituloy dahil sa kasunduang iligtas ang kanyang mahal na kapatid? Hanggang saan aabot ang kanyang pagtitiis na mag-panggap? Magkakaroon nga ba ng pag-ibig sa pagitan nila ni Ethan?

At the parent-teacher conference, Emery Carey's essay, My CEO Mom, won first place, earning thunderous applause from the class. But the mood soured when my daughter ran to me in tears, her cheeks marked with red handprints. "Emery hit me again. He said I don't belong in his class and spat in my face." I scooped her up and marched to the teacher to demand answers. The teacher brushed it off. "It's just kids' horseplay. Don't blow it out of proportion. Emery's mother is the CEO of Mills Group. Get the picture and pull your kid out. Don't affect the mood." I froze, shocked by the absurdity. Then I dialed my lawyer. "Prepare the divorce agreement. Olivia is leaving with nothing." She'd been using my money to fund her lover and his son. That betrayal would not go unpunished.

Aliyah has spent her entire life living in the shadow of her sister, Aleli. Aleli often took away the things that made her happy, including her boyfriend, Benedict. She caught them in bed together, and instead of apologizing, Benedict blamed her for his infidelity. He accused her of lacking too much in their relationship, saying that Aleli filled those gaps and was better than her in every way. Aliyah’s heart shattered completely when the two got engaged. At their engagement party, Aleli created a scene, accusing Aliyah in front of their parents of trying to seduce Benedict. Heartbroken and humiliated she ran out of the party. She almost got hit by a car, and with so much stress and shock, she fainted. When she woke up, she found herself in Conner’s bedroom, Benedict’s uncle, a congressman. Conner made her an unexpected offer: a marriage of convenience. He needed a wife to improve his public image for the upcoming election. Aliyah and Conner’s relationship was starting to improve, but it didn’t take long before the fragile foundation they were building began to shake when Aleli found out about her marriage to Conner—a man far wealthier and more powerful than Benedict—started to do things and create issues to ruined her marriage to Conner. Despite that, Aliyah and Conner grew even closer. They discovered each other’s strengths and weaknesses, which only strengthened their bond. Just when Aliyah thought nothing could break them and she was finally ready to admit her love for Conner, his mother arrived along with Conner’s ex-girlfriend and dropped a bombshell—she had returned to tell Conner that they had a child together. But Conner did everything to prove that no matter what happens, he will always choose her above everything else.
