Effort Banget

"Kopermu berat banget sih, kamu bawa baju apa batu?" "Bawa beban hidup!” "Kamu dari dulu itu senang menimpal ya, Bel. Ingat, aku ini suamimu!” "Terus kalau kamu suami, aku harus bersikap bagaimana, Rav? Eh, tunggu dulu. Suami macam apa yang tega berbohong pada keluarga dan istrinya?” Belva Primrose, seorang desainer ternama dengan latar belakang keturunan ningrat dan keluarga terpandang terpaksa harus menikah dengan pria yang sudah di jodohkan dengannya sejak dulu, Ravindra Mahesa. Dengan sebuah alasan mengenai tradisi juga sebuah hutang budi membuat keduanya tak berdaya menolak keinginan orang tua. Saat pertama kali di bawa ke rumah suami, Belva terkejut karena mengetahui bahwa Ravin ternyata sudah lebih dulu menikah dengan wanita lain—Alana Monica namanya.

Namun, lambat laun Belva mencium banyak kejanggalan pada pria itu yang berkaitan dengan istri tua Ravin. Apa yang sebenarnya terjadi di balik itu semua ? Akankah Belva akhirnya menemukan cinta sejati setelah beberapa kali bertemu dengan lelaki yang salah ?

Six years into a mildly loveless relationship with her husband the Alpha, Selene does everything in her power to keep the outside ears from knowing how much her relationship with the alpha was dying while she tried to care for her only daughter. She was a Luna with a rare disability; a crippled wolf, and would be considered useless as she could not defend herself in the presence of danger but she had countered her disability with selflessness towards her park members, but things take a drastic turn when Selene discovers how much of her effort was wasted on the wrong set of people. She found out her husband was having an affair with her older sister, which led to a severe retaliation of the Alpha on her little girl. Ella, Selene's daughter , experienced a traumatic sickness which led her to coma, while Selene was rejected and locked up in the park dungeon to die. But hope arrives unexpectedly when the Alpha’s brother, the man who had been rumoured to be dead, unexpectedly appeared to save her and her child, but not without a condition.

Menjelang hari pernikahan, Nando Soman tiba-tiba menjadi korban pemukulan. Saat aku mendengar kabar buruk itu dan buru-buru ke rumah sakit, dia sudah tak mengenaliku lagi. Dokter bilang, kepalanya mengalami benturan hebat, menyebabkan amnesia sementara. Sejak itu, aku mengerahkan segalanya. Kucoba mengajaknya mengunjungi ulang semua tempat penuh kenangan kita, berharap bisa membangkitkan kembali ingatannya. Tapi saat kami kembali ke rumah sakit untuk pemeriksaan, aku tak sengaja mendengar percakapannya dengan teman-temannya. “Rani udah sebaik itu sama kamu, kamu nggak terharu?” “Terharu apanya, aku mau muntah. Setiap hari mutar di tempat yang itu-itu aja, nggak ada hal baru. Cewek-cewek baru malah lebih seru dan bervariasi.” “Kalau gitu kenapa masih mau nikah sama dia? Menurut aku sih, mending batalkan aja tunangannya, hidup lebih bebas.” Tapi dia malah marah besar. “Ngomong apa kamu?! Aku cinta banget sama Rani, mana mungkin aku batalkan pertunangan kami! Aku pasti akan menikahinya! Cuma, waktunya ditunda sedikit.” Saat aku melihat hasil pemeriksaan di tanganku yang menunjukkan semuanya normal, aku baru benar-benar tersadar. Ternyata, memang tak bisa membangunkan orang yang pura-pura tidur.

Carol: Life was never a bed of roses. At least for me. Abandoned at birth by both parents, and made to go through too many foster homes, I had to put in twice the amount of effort of my peers. Both in education, and in my career. I love children, and I've aspired to land a very good job as a social worker who cares for kids for as long as I can remember. When New York's most eligible bachelor and billionaire Evans Armstrong propositions me to become a nanny for his nephew, I'm speechless. Out of every options he had available, he choose me. And his nephew is the sweetest boy I've ever encountered. Maybe, just maybe I can achieve my dreams after all. Evans: Life was never the same ever since my sister Serena died, leaving me with her son Brandon. Each day that passes, I strive to be a better man, and provide for Brandon everything he needs. He's a smart kid, and he deserves the best. Which is why I go out of my way in searching for a suitable nanny to tend to him, since my efforts can only go so far. When I see Carolina for the first time, she's striking. And her polite demeanor has a ripple effect on young Brandon. I know immediately that she's the right one for him. She would make a wonderful nanny. And perhaps, a wonderful wife.

David was a sad champ, a mess, and an academic genius. By genius, I mean an A+, no effort type of a genius. He is that child that every parent kneels and prays to God to have. You know them, those that society admires. And are held closest to heart. But he was still human.

"Apa yang lo lakuin ke gue, Al? Gimana kalo gue sampe hamil? Hiks ..." gue pukul dada polos Aldo dengan menangis histeris. "Lo sendiri yang mau, loh tadi? Gue pake k*n-dom, Nis ... santai dong ..., lagian ini kan belum larut banget? Masih jam sepuluh? Sana gih beberes, biar gue anterin! Ntar kita pikir di jalan alasan buat bokap, lo!" jawabnya enteng dengan beringsut turun dari ranjang. Penyesalan hanyalah penyesalan yang tak akan pernah bisa memperbaiki kehormatan gue ... Hidup gue HANCUR!
