Cody The Hedgehog

Gagal ginjal stadium akhir. Ginjal yang paling cocok untukku… justru diberikan suamiku kepada adikku. Aku menolak saran dokter untuk terus menunggu donor baru dan memilih keluar dari rumah sakit lebih awal. Hati yang telah lama membeku, tak lagi punya alasan untuk bertahan. Seluruh harta yang kukumpulkan selama bertahun-tahun, kuserahkan kepada adik. Akhirnya, senyum orang tuaku pun kudapatkan. Suamiku merawat adikku siang dan malam tanpa istirahat. Aku tak marah, malah mengingatkannya untuk lebih hati-hati dan teliti. Bahkan ketika anakku ingin memanggil adikku sebagai “ibu”, aku pun tersenyum dan menyetujui. Semuanya sudah berjalan sesuai keinginan mereka. Lalu… mengapa sekarang mereka menyesal?

Sehari sebelum tahun baru, demi tiga kali upah lembur, kedua orangtuaku meninggalkan aku sendirian di rumah. Aku pikir selama dua puluh tahun ini, mereka selalu begitu. Jadi tahun ini, aku tidak ingin kesepian melewati tahun baru seorang diri. Akhirnya aku membawa Siomay pergi mencari mereka. Namun aku tidak pernah menyangka, kedua orang tuaku yang sering bilang mencari nafkah untuk menghasilkan lebih banyak uang, justru aku memergoki mereka turun dari mobil mewah. Mereka merangkul seorang anak lelaki yang tampak seumuran denganku, masuk ke hotel bintang lima sambil bersenda gurau. “Ayah, Ibu, kalian meninggalkan Nia seorang diri di rumah, nggak masalah? Ibuku berkata dengan datar, “Nggak apa-apa, dia sudah terbiasa kok.” Ayahku berkata dengan acuh tak acuh, “Dia nggak bisa dibandingkan denganmu, kamu adalah buah hati kami.” Aku pun berbalik dan pergi. Mereka pura-pura miskin, untuk menipuku. Kali ini, aku juga tidak berharap ditemani mereka.

Masih tersisa sepuluh hari sebelum aku mendonorkan ginjalku untuknya. Diam-diam, di dalam hatinya, Shasa Handoko menghitung hari yang tersisa. 'Tinggal sepuluh hari lagi. Setelah itu, Arya Lexim akan mendapatkan tubuh yang sehat, sementara aku... Pengganti yang dibencinya akan menghilang dari hidupnya.' Kira-kira... ketika Arya akhirnya bersama dengan perempuan yang dicintainya, apakah dia masih akan mengingatku? Mungkin... tidak akan.

For seven years, I love Cody Rummish, clinging to his promise—once his sister-in-law, Luna Briche, conceives, our ordeal ends, and we finally begin our married life. But reality betrays me. Just months after moving into his home, Cody slips into Luna's bedroom 88 times—starting with once a month, now nearly one or two visits daily. Every night, I sit in the downstairs living room, counting the minutes, clutching a flicker of unrealistic hope. As the sole heir after his twin brother's fatal plane crash, Cody inherits not just power and wealth but also, seamlessly, his brother's widow, Luna. After the 88th visit, Luna announces her pregnancy. But instead of Cody honoring his promise, a public declaration shatters me—he will formally marry Luna. I unravel, demanding answers. Silent, Cody locks me in the bedroom's walk-in closet. "Luna was trapped in an elevator for 30 minutes! She nearly died because of you! Stay here for five days. Feel her fear!" Only on the sixth morning does Cody casually open the door with a chuckle. "Alright, lesson learned. Time to apologize, right?" He finds only the stench of blood and my cold, lifeless body. He's killed the fiancée who's loved him for seven years.

Three months into my pregnancy, I was resting at home to ensure the baby’s health when a typhoon struck. My husband, Adam Quinn, received a call and rushed out to meet his childhood sweetheart. As a result, I experienced severe abdominal pain. The ambulance taking me to the hospital was involved in an accident, and I lost the baby. Adam arrived much later, only to blame me, saying, "Mona Thomas, why are you so useless? You couldn’t even keep the baby!"

Cindy Chase always claims that we're the best of friends, but she lies and says she's out shopping with me when she's actually on a date with someone. She takes her husband's money to help her family but tells him she's lending me the money so I can buy luxury items. She cheats on her husband with her first love because she can't resist him and contracts an STD. Then, she throws me under the bus and says that she only got it because I made her wear clothes that carried the infection. Later, her in-laws come knocking on my door. They break my ribs and watch as I die from the pain!

As floodwaters rushed into the garage, I called my boyfriend. "Wade, help me... I'm trapped in here! The emergency exit's locked!" He sounded annoyed. "Tia, stop. Mandy's cat is stuck in a tree—we're handling it!" Then he hung up, taking the rescue team with him. My last hope was gone.

It was the third Valentine's Day after our marriage. Samuel was complaining to his friends about me, "Noelle's very uptight. She's so boring in bed. It's like doing it with a blow-up doll. I'd never have married her if she wasn't rich." I went to a club and got a model with an eight-pack to please me. Enraged, Samuel demanded an explanation. I eyed him and snickered. "Look at you. You're so flabby. I'd never have married you if you weren't at least good-looking."
