Komik Citra 11

As Christmas drew near, my little sister claimed she’d seen Santa Claus in the house. “He had four legs, real long, like dead branches. He crawled on the floor like a dog. His mouth was full of teeth, and I saw him with my own eyes, climbing out of the chimney. His bones were making this clicking, clacking sound.” The Santa she described was nothing like the legends. My parents and I thought it was just her imagination. Until I posted about it online. A user named “NocturneNotes” insisted my sister wasn’t lying, and that the thing was dangerous. Panicked, I asked him what we should do. He gave me three rules: “On Christmas Eve, from 11:30 PM to 2:00 AM, the entire family must ‘sleep’ by the Christmas tree.” “You can’t actually fall asleep, or you’ll die in your sleep.” “No matter what you hear or feel, you absolutely cannot open your eyes or stop pretending to be asleep. Once it hits 2:00 AM, it will leave on its own.”

Two ancient royal bloodlines survived the fall of empires — not in castles or crowns, but in billion-dollar corporations and global influence. In the dazzling metropolis of Aurora Country, the Vale and Albourne families remain as symbols of wealth, power, and legacy. Bound by a centuries-old friendship, their alliance is now cemented in secret: a marriage contract between their only heirs. Valerie Vale, 22, the unseen princess, lives quietly as a team leader in the creative design department at AV Tech, the flagship company owned by both families.

To the world, Leon is married — but no one knows to whom. To each other, they are bound by duty — and three house rules. But behind Leon’s cold gaze is a truth hidden for 11 years — he’s loved Valerie since the moment they met. And now, the game begins.

Selama lima tahun pernikahan, Diego selalu mempertahankan citra sebagai suami penyayang yang tak tergoyahkan. Sebagai pewaris Keluarga Luis, dia dengan disiplin mematuhi jam malam dan selalu pulang tepat waktu. Setiap hari dia sendiri yang menyetir mengantarku ke kantor, dan setiap hari raya dia bersusah payah menyiapkan hadiah. Instagram dan Twitter, semuanya dipenuhi keseharian dia memanjakan istrinya. Para netizen bercanda menyebutnya sudah stadium akhir "maniak cinta", sementara para penggemar pasangan menggilai pasangan kami mati-matian. Akan tetapi, akun WhatsApp-nya masih login di tablet, dan seorang perempuan mengiriminya sebuah video. Dalam video itu, si perempuan bercosplay sebagai polisi kelinci, tatapannya sayu dan menggoda. Sambil berlutut dengan kedua kaki terbuka, kedua tangannya sedang membuka kancing di dada, seolah tidak sabar memperlihatkan kulitnya yang putih mulus. [Kelinci kecil sangat merindukan Kak Diego, mau ciuman dari Kak Diego!] Suara perempuan itu manis dan menggoda, dengan nada sedikit manja. Awalnya aku tidak menganggapnya serius. Wajar saja kalau ada yang menyukai Diego, siapa sih yang tidak punya beberapa pengejar? Selama ini dia memberiku rasa aman yang cukup. Tepat saat kupikir ini hanya godaan sepihak lagi, Diego membalasnya: [Besok, seharian penuh kamu jangan harap bisa turun dari tempat tidur.] ...

It's 11:30 pm. Home alone, I decide to order some takeout. When the map shows the delivery guy is zero miles away, I receive a call from him. I pick up, only to hear unsettling silence from the other end. I hang up, annoyed. The next moment, the guy texts me, "Sorry, I'm hearing-impaired and unable to speak. I called to notify you to pick up your food as soon as possible. I can't explain things over the phone, and I apologize for that." Then comes another text. "You must've been waiting for a long time. I've left your order at your door, so please pick it up as soon as you can." Just as I prepare to open the door, I see bars of live comments—reminiscent of livestream chats—floating right before my eyes. "Don't open the door! That dude isn't a delivery guy at all! He's a murderer!" "He called you to check if you're a woman living alone!" "Seriously, why are all thriller story protagonists always so dumb? The delivery guy is obviously suspicious, yet she still wants to open the door."

Pada tanggal 11 November, asisten polos dan lugu tunanganku menjual berlian satu karat seharga satu sen. Dalam waktu singkat 20 menit, perusahaan merugi 400 miliar. Aku gemetar karena marah, sementara Arvino memelukku dan menenangkanku, "Jangan khawatir, serahkan hal ini padaku." Namun, malam itu, Lunaria Sasmaya mengunggah di IG Story tangkapan layar transfer sebesar 3 miliar dan menuliskan keterangan: [Hari ini aku melakukan kesalahan besar, tapi bos malah menghiburku.

After I hand over my five-million-dollar commission to my departmental colleagues, they drag me to a hotel and celebrate with me for three days straight. But when I walk past the bathroom, I overhear a conversation between two of my colleagues that stops me cold. "Have the results of the vote been released yet?" What vote? Confused, I check my phone and find that I've been removed from the Project Department's group chat. "Who else could it be? Our hero, Zane Carter, received 11 votes. It was unanimous, and the motion was passed." "Serves him right. I've never liked him anyway." I freeze. I can't believe that my colleagues would betray me after what I've done for them. After taking a moment to calm down, I immediately decide to resign. The next thing I know, I receive a call from the company chairman, Wilson Smith. "Have you made up your mind? Quitting now would breach your contract. As a result, your five-million-dollar commission would be revoked. "You're also a key technical staff member. If you leave, your entire department would most likely be dismissed. Once that happens, your colleagues will end up unemployed. Are you sure about this?" I lower my gaze and let out a cold laugh. "Absolutely."
