Celana Warna Stone

Liburan semester seharusnya menjadi waktu bagi Alea Kirana untuk bersantai, tapi sebagai mahasiswi DKV yang ambisius, ia justru disibukkan dengan persiapan Dies Natalis kampusnya. Di tengah hiruk-pikuk acara yang meriah, takdir mempermainkannya. Dalam insiden tak terduga, ia menabrak seorang pria di koridor kampus, menumpahkan kopi ke jas mahalnya. Pria itu bukan sembarang orang, melainkan Alden Dirgantara, CEO muda yang sukses, alumni yang menjadi kebanggaan universitas, dan sosok yang dikabarkan dingin dan tak tersentuh. Kejadian memalukan itu seharusnya menjadi yang terakhir, namun ternyata hanya permulaan. Alden, yang terkesan dengan presentasi Alea, menawarkan posisi magang di perusahaannya. Alea terpaksa menerima, membawa dirinya dari dunia kampus yang penuh warna ke lingkungan kantor yang serba kaku. Di sana, ia harus berhadapan dengan rekan kerja yang kompetitif dan rumor yang beredar tentang hubungannya dengan sang CEO. Seiring waktu, Alea perlahan melihat sisi lain dari Alden, sisi yang lebih hangat dan protektif yang tersembunyi di balik citra dinginnya. Batasan antara profesionalisme dan perasaan mulai kabur. Namun, saat hubungan mereka semakin dalam, masa lalu Alden dan intrik di perusahaan mengancam untuk menghancurkan segalanya. Mampukah Alea bertahan di dunia korporat yang asing dan membuka hati Alden yang tertutup? Atau akankah magang ini hanya menjadi sebuah pelajaran tentang jatuh cinta yang berakhir?

For the nine hundred and ninety-ninth time, the system in my mind warned me. [Warning! The lovesick part of your brain is highly active! If you refuse to leave John Miller, you’ll die an hour later!] I looked at my husband. He was scolding me for the sake of his secretary, who was his first love. I once burned down all of my award-winning drawings just because he disliked them. I calmly gave the system in my brain an order. “Since the cause of the malfunction is the lovesick portion of my brain, I hereby grant you the highest authority to remove it. Do the surgery now!” An hour later, John stopped me at the door of the ward. His eyes were bloodshot. “Grace Stone, what are you trying to pull?” I raised my head and watched him coldly and calmly. “Mister, you blocked the light. Based on an analysis, this constitutes an illegal detention. Do you need my help calling the cops?”

In the tenth year of my pursuit of Henry Stone—the profoundly devoted deuteragonist in the novel—he arranges a lavish, extravagant wedding on my behalf. I still feel uneasy even though Henry continues to love me deeply after we get married. This is because the mission progress bar displayed by the system has never moved past zero. On our wedding anniversary, I happen to stumble upon a hidden diary in Henry's desk drawer, which reveals a very shocking truth—Henry has been reborn. He possesses full knowledge that this world is a novel and that I am the antagonist who poses a threat to the protagonist, Renee Schmidt. He puts on a careful act of profound love toward me, strictly for the purpose of shielding Renee, the person he truly cares for. I have just gotten the gist of the whole situation when the system's warning goes off. "You have failed your romance mission. Your existence will be terminated within 48 hours."
