I'm So Grateful Artinya

On Thanksgiving, my husband Steven Mandel showed up with another woman. Not just anyone—Fiona Osborne, his first love. She had Alzheimer's and only remembered him. And yeah, he said she was moving in. Steven's eyes were ice. "Erica, I stayed away from Fiona out of duty. But I'm not wasting what time I have left without her." Happy 50th anniversary to me. No gift—just a slap-in-the-face love confession. Maya, my daughter-in-law, tried to talk some sense into him, bless her. Then Anton—my own son—cut in. "Mom already kept Dad away from Fiona for years. She's tied ME to you for half my life. Now Dad just wants to take care of the woman he loves—what's so wrong with that?" Steven stepped in front of Fiona like some kind of hero. "Anton's right. Erica, I let you play the wife role for decades. Now, I want to be with the woman I truly love. "If you can't handle that, let's just get a divorce." I stood there, frozen. I'd walked away from a powerhouse law career for this family after we had Anton. I thought I had given everything, and in their eyes, I would be a perfect wife and a perfect mother. But today made it clear—I was never enough. No matter how much I gave, it was never going to be enough. I turned to Maya. She was crying. "You wanna get divorced together?"

I was married to Gideon Strathmore for eight years, but he was unfaithful, bringing home different women. The 100th, Vesper Quinn, smirked at me and turned to him, saying, "This is your useless wife, huh?" Gideon leaned back in his chair and lazily nodded. Emboldened by his attitude, she strutted over and patted my cheek. "Listen closely to what a real woman sounds like." That night, moans filled the living room. I couldn't escape them. The next morning, Gideon ordered me to breakfast as usual. I refused, unwilling to be his puppet any longer. He forgot our marriage was based on a contract, and it was due in three days.

"Earth cries when sun sets. If I am Earth will you be my sun?" I was a liar, but even liars deserve a love story. Everything turned into pure chaos when Bright, an alpha, started chasing after Win, an omega; who was unknown to him, hiding a huge secret. The alpha was such a charm, after all. Maybe Win's heart cells started betraying him. But past lies started haunting him. His actions turned into arrows which were dipped in pure poison piercing his heart in the most painful way. Would Win be able to resist Bright? Will they have their own love story? Even if that happens.. will it be a sweet one? Or end with tragedy?

Aimee: I had it all: a loving family, a good education, and a handsome boyfriend who was about to propose. But my perfect world came crashing down when Jake publicly announced Jessica, my worst enemy, as his Luna on the night of his coronation. Heartbroken and humiliated, I planned to flee back home, bury my face into my pillows, and sob. But fate had other plans for me. That same night, I discovered that I was mated to Alpha Logan, the ruthless leader of the Ridge Pack that haunted everyone's nightmare. Logan: I didn't give a damn about the coronation of the new Alpha of the Crescent Pack. I was only there to sign a peace treaty and get out of there. I had enough problems of my own: a curse that had made me numb, and a mate that eluded me. But then I smelled something that changed everything. A sweet and intoxicating scent that stirred something in me. She was my mate, and she was mine. And I would stop at nothing to claim her. Even if it meant starting a war.

"PAPA SUDAH BILANG JAGA OLIVE! TAPI KAMU TIDAK BISA MEMBUKTIKANNYA! KAMU SELALU MEMBUAT ORANG-ORANG YANG SAYA SAYANGI TERLUKA!" Perlahan Rian mulai membuka ikat pinggangnya. Ia ingat jelas ketika mendiang istrinya—Rindu tertabrak mobil, karena menyelamatkan Sina. Ia juga mengingat Lili meninggal sebab melahirkan Sina. Luka yang Rian alami tak lain dan tak bukan adalah karena Sina—anaknya sendiri. SET! Sina memejamkan kedua matanya kala ikat pinggang itu mencambuk tubuhnya. Gadis malang itu mulai terduduk dengan tubuh gemetar hebat. "Jika Olive mati, papa tidak akan pernah memaafkan kamu!" "Saya bingung, kenapa Tuhan menghadirkan kamu di kehidupan saya!" "Pertama, Lili! Kedua Rindu dan sekarang Olive?" sentak Rian pada anak itu. "Kenapa kamu harus hidup dengan membawa kesialan?!" "KENAPA BUKAN KAMU SAJA YANG MATI!" Mendengar kalimat terakhir tangis Sina pecah. Ulu hatinya tiba-tiba merasa sakit. Dadanya mendadak sesak. PLAK! SEAT! Sina tidak melawan. Ia hanya bisa meringkuk mendapat perlakuan kasar dari ayah kandungnya sendiri itu. Hanya air mata yang bisa menerjemahkan tentang seterluka apa Sina saat ini. "I'm okay." Nyatanya kata-kata itu hanyalah kalimat palsu yang sering Sina tunjukkan. Selama ini Sina tidak baik-baik saja. Ia dihujam ribuan luka dan menyimpannya sendiri. Tak ada yang baik-baik saja kala semua orang membencinya. Tak ada yang baik-baik saja saat semua orang mengharapkan kepergiannya. Sina berharap lukanya berakhir. Namun, nyatanya luka itu terus datang dan membuat luka yang lainnya ikut menganga. Sinar Rembulan redup, sebab sulit bertahan dengan luka di dalam kesendirian. Tak ada tempat baginya untuk bersandar. Tak ada manusia yang memberikannya semangat atau motivasi. Sina kehilangan arah, saat ini gadis itu sudah sampai di puncak keletihan. Lalu harus bagaimana? Mengakhiri hidupn? Atau bertahan dengan luka yang tiada akhir?

Sa gitna ng karangyaan ng Blue Ocean Cruise Ship, isang banggaan ng galit at kapalaran ang magpapasimula ng pagbabago sa buhay nina Cherry at Jal. Si Cherry, isang matapang at determinadong crew member na may fiancée na nangangalang David, ay umuusok sa galit matapos ang magulong araw sa trabaho. Sa isang aksidenteng pagkikita, napagkamalan niyang gigolo ang isang gwapong lalaki na tila walang pakialam sa mundo—si Jal. Ngunit ang hindi niya alam, ang lalaking kanyang sinigawan at tinawag na bastos ay ang mismong kapitan, CEO, at bilyonaryong nagmamay-ari ng barkong kanyang pinagtatrabahuhan. Ngunit sa ilalim ng liwanag ng buwan at sa kislap ng dagat, naganap ang isang gabing hindi nila inaasahan—isang mainit at mapusok na one-night stand na nag-iwan ng masakit na katotohanan: si Cherry ay nagdadalang-tao ng triplets. Habang patuloy na iniwasan ni Cherry si Jal, ang galit niya rito ay nagiging masalimuot na damdaming hindi niya maunawaan. Ang kanyang puso ay tila nagkakaroon ng sariling isip tuwing nakikita si Jal, kahit pa alam niyang may malaking sagabal sa kanilang dalawa—ang kanyang matagal nang fiancé na si David, na naghahanda na para sa kanilang kasal sa susunod na taon. Sa bawat araw na lumilipas, lalo siyang nahuhulog sa kakaibang ganda at pagkatao ni Cherry—isang damdaming hindi niya inasahan at pilit niyang nilalabanan. Ngunit paano kung malaman niya ang lihim ni Cherry? Paano kung matuklasan niyang siya ang ama ng mga triplets na dinadala nito? Pipiliin ba ni Cherry ang responsibilidad ng pangako kay David, o ang tawag ng pusong nagsisigaw para kay Jal?
