Elysian Artinya

Heartaches, what if’s, maybe’s, and many chances. Feel the roller coaster of emotions as we share our lovestory. Sincerely, A.

Karena dianggap tidak mampu meneruskan bisnis keluarga, aku dijodohkan dengan seorang pria yang orang tuaku anggap sempurna bersanding denganku. Untuk gambaran seorang laki-laki, Shane memang nyaris sempurna dengan wajah dan karir yang ia miliki. Sayangnya, pernikahan ini adalah bencana bagi Shane. Sebelum dijodohkan denganku, ia memiliki kekasih yang begitu ia cintai. Tentu saja begitu kami menikah, Shane sama sekali tidak tertarik untuk menyentuhku. Bagi Shane, hanya Erina yang ada di dalam hatinya. Bahkan sampai satu tahun pernikahan kami, tidak ada yang berubah dari Shane. Dia masih tidak menganggapku sebagai istrinya. Aku yang awalnya tidak peduli akan sikapnya, kini lambat laun malah merasakan hal yang aneh. Aku mulai tidak suka dengan kenyataan bahwa Shane tidak mencintaiku. Aku juga mulai benci ketika mengingat siapa yang sebenarnya Shane cintai. Tidak. Aku tidak ingin jatuh cinta sendirian karena aku tidak akan sanggup menahan lukanya. Seandainya saja Shane memberi kesempatan untuk pernikahan kami...
