Another Word For Took Off

"Untuk sesaat aku mengerti bahwa tidak ada kebahagiaan yang abadi," gumam Alea yang tengah berada di ujung jembatan. Dengan penuh derai air mata Alea memejamkan matanya dan menarik nafas dengan begitu dalam. Lalu setelah beberapa saat diapun melompat ke sungai yang tak terukur dalamnya tanpa ragu sedikitpun. Seketika matanya terbuka saat dia tengah berada di 50% kedalaman sungai itu, dia begitu pasrah hingga tak berontak sedikitpun. "Ayah, ibu, kak Gevan, kak Seila, Alea duluan ya. Hiduplah dengan baik tanpa Alea, Alea sayang kalian," batin Alea. Perlahan matanya tertutup dan tubuhnya pun perlahan turun kedasar kedalaman sungai yang begitu gelap itu. *** Akankah Alea mati tenggelam atau akan ada seseorang yang menolongnya?

My husband, the hospital director, stole my kidney to save his beloved first love, who suffered from uremia. While I was under anesthesia for heart surgery, he stormed into the operating room without permission and ordered the removal of one of my kidneys. I begged him to stop, explaining that my heart condition was critical and that I could not survive back-to-back major surgeries. He only sneered at me, his voice dripping with disdain. “I knew you’d be jealous of Cece and make pathetic excuses. That’s exactly why I chose this moment.” Ignoring my desperate pleas, he took my kidney and walked away. In the end, I suffered multiple post-surgery complications and died miserably on the operating table.

Kiara sat at her small kitchen table literally bumping her head into the wood. Several times. Why the hell did she agree to spend four days in a island with loaded snobs she knew nothing about? Of course, she didn’t know exactly what she signed up for before she accepted his offer, but she knew it came from the guy who sent her to jail and said yes anyway. And based on what? A hunch. Something so intangible and arbitrary she would be unable to explain even to her dad, who was always a firm believer in following your gut. But she saw it, right there hiding behind his handsome stoic façade. He was… desperate. --All Kiara has in life is her passion for art. Her career as a circus performer is a constant search for real attention, for people to see through the veil of plain entertainment. Chris Wright is the heir to one of the most profitable construction empires of the city, but to get to the top he needs the approval of his authoritarian father. Who knows what will happen when art meets business and passion meets duty?

Even though this is my eighth time proposing to Beverly Galvan, she still coldly turns me down again. She says that she isn't ready yet and that she needs more time. Since that's the case, I tell myself I will wait as long as it takes. That's when I see it—her and my brother's marriage certificate, posted for everyone to see on her social media. When I question her about it, she merely says in a calm voice, "Timothy's unwell. He can't get too upset, so you'd better not start anything!" They are wearing wedding rings in that photo, and there is a barely visible bump on her belly. In that moment, the storm within me dissipates. Hitting the like button on the post, I type out a comment. "I wish you both a lifetime of joy. May the two of you grow old together!" A year later, a desperate-looking Beverly shows up in front of me, begging that we get back together. Unfortunately for her, her best friend, who was clearly pregnant, steps in with a smile and pushes her aside. "Give it a rest, will you? My husband already has a wife. We can have kids of our own. There's no need for him to be someone's fallback guy."

Princess CARLOTTA - that was her name. Young, pretty, smart, and most importantly, crazy. She's not the regular kind of princess you must've read in books or heard about. CARLOTTA was always seen on the streets, playing, fighting and causing commotions. Go to the busiest places in the Kingdom. She's CARLOTTA, always found making troubles around - marketplaces, farms, just mention.

Master LORENZO, the man who kills without giving a second thought and had lost two wives mysteriously. ~ Let's watch it on how CARLOTTA got MARRIED OFF and becomes the Master's third wife.

One day- I can say precisely when I know the date. I will talk to her with no fear... Maybe we will walk while holding hands, seeing eachother and smile. These are my thoughts so far... As I roll around my bed I thought maybe tomorrow I should just confess. What if I will not get rejected? So yes! I have liked this girl for quite a while now, it's going to be 2 years. She is elder than me and I guess it's the time to make everything clear. "That's when he took my breath away! I couldn't help but stare in his dark black eyes~"

When Stella Carpenter transfers money to her brother without my permission for the third time, I decide that it's time to give up. I quit my high-paying job and laze around at home all day, gaming and waiting to be fed. It only takes three days for Stella to panic. She points at me and asks what the hell I'm doing. We have bills and our daughter's tuition to pay—we need money for everything! Oh, so she does realize that we spend a lot on our family. Why does she keep taking my money to give to her brother, then?
