Kandungan Stop Cold

Arini tak terima jika suami menyuruhnya menggugurkan kandungan sebab ibu mertua tak suka dia hamil.

Saat acara pertunangan berlangsung, Naina justru meminta duduk di dekat Abi. Akankah Abi tahu bahwa Naina adalah anaknya?

My daughter, Tina, locked herself in her room, crying so hard her body shook. I pried the door open and saw that she was clutching a test paper that was torn to shreds and pieced back together. It was a math Olympiad selection test. She should have gotten a perfect score, but was given a score of zero instead. "Mom," she sobbed, "the teacher said 3x5 is not equal to 5x3; that it's taking shortcuts. She tore my paper up in front of everyone, revoked my eligibility for the competition, and told the whole class not to talk to me…" I looked at the deep red scratch marks on my daughter's wrist and immediately picked up the phone to call the principal. "What good does it do for your school's reputation to drive a kid who loves math to their breaking point?"

Celia Johnson, my boss's sister-in-law, joined the company as the finance director and announced that all reimbursements must strictly follow the standards. I spent an entire week running around for the company and finally closed a five-hundred-thousand-dollar deal. Because the client had used two extra packs of paper towels, the per-person amount for their meal ended up eight dollars over the limit. Celia folded her arms, glanced at the reimbursement form on my desk, and sneered. "Five hundred and eight dollars?" "Yes. Last night at The Peak Restaurant, where we closed Richard's deal. Zack was there too," I explained patiently. "Eight dollars over the per-person limit. Not reimbursable," Celia said coldly. I tried to reason with her. "This was a special case. The client is high-level, and the deal amount is large, and Zack personally said it would be fully reimbursed last night." She returned the reimbursement form to me. "I don't care who said that. Don't think closing a five-hundred-thousand-dollar contract lets you ignore company rules. Reimbursements must all follow policies. Everyone will follow them to the letter." I took a deep breath. I knew arguing with her head-on would get me nowhere, so I called Zack directly. Zack said, "I did say it would be reimbursed, but I never said company rules could be ignored. It's just five hundred. And you still get commission from closing the deal. You young people need to have perspective." I stopped arguing. I turned around and refused the delivery containing the hard copy of the five-hundred-thousand-dollar cooperation contract, smiling as I explained, "Company rules say all cash on delivery packages must be refused. "Also, today is my last day here. Starting tomorrow, I work for Richard's company. As the client, I will be setting the rules this time."

Saat mengetahui aku hamil, Arzo Tasmian mengeluarkan banyak uang untuk mengundang seorang dokter terkenal untuk meresepkan obat penguat kandungan untukku. Dirinya yang atheis bahkan berlutut lama di rumah ibadah, memohon agar aku bisa melahirkan dengan selamat. "Sayang, kamu sudah bekerja keras. Setelah anak ini lahir, aku pasti akan menebus semuanya dengan baik." Di hari yang sama, aku kebetulan membantu menjawab teleponnya. "Pak Arzo, sesuai perintah Anda, di dalam obat penguat kandungan Nyonya telah dicampurkan obat sterilisasi. Anak itu akan lahir sebagai bayi mati." "Anak Bu Mona sangat sehat dan pasti bisa lahir dengan lancar untuk menjadi pewaris Grup Tasmian. Nyonya tidak akan menyadari adanya masalah apa pun dan tidak akan merusak hubungan Anda dengan Nyonya. Bapak bisa tenang." Aku menunduk sambil memandang perutku yang membesar. Tak pernah terpikir olehku bahwa cintanya ternyata sepalsu ini. Oleh karena itulah, setelah menandatangani surat perjanjian cerai, aku memilih untuk pergi.
