Lock-free Data Structures

Rhea Hale, a young art restorer at the old Elaria gallery, lives a life of near-perfect calm—canvases, colors, and classical symphonies that fill her every day.

And from then on, neither of their lives remains the same. "One glance started it all. And after that... there was no turning back."

A post accusing me of feeding my employees free lunches worse than pig feed goes viral online. However, none of them know that the daily free lunches are all catered from a five-star hotel at 100 dollars per head. The entire internet goes crazy, calling me names and accusing me of being an evil boss. Even my co-founder, Dustin Jager, texts me and says, "Maybe we should go with what the employees want and change it to a meal allowance plan instead." I harden my heart and send out a company-wide announcement. "In response to everyone's pursuit of healthy eating and the right to choose their own lunches, the company has decided to discontinue the free lunch program. "A meal reimbursement plan will be introduced instead, effective immediately, with a daily limit of 20 dollars per person per day. All reimbursements will be calculated at the end of the month with the presentation of valid receipts." As soon as the announcement is made, the company's chat groups immediately go berserk.

"Jadi kamu yang membuat Farel pergi meninggalkan aku? Kamu membuat data palsu seolah-olah Farel memiliki penyakit HIV agar dia membatalkan pernikahan? Terus besoknya kamu melamarku menggantikan posisi dia seolah menjadi pahlawan agar keluargaku tidak menanggung malu? Begitu?" Shira bertepuk tangan di hadapan Jonathan. "Maksud kamu data palsu apa? Dan jangan berbicara tinggi seperti itu padaku, aku ini suamimu!" "Yang seharusnya menjadi suamiku itu Farel, bukan kamu! Aku benar-benar menyesal telah menikah denganmu! Kamu bersikap seolah-olah aku ratu satu-satunya di hatimu padahal ada ratu lain yang kamu sembunyikan, termasuk keluargamu sendiri ikut merasahasiakannya, benar-benar gila!" Shira berkelakar sampai kalap. "Ratu apa? Aku tidak mengerti dengan perkataanmu, Shira!" "Come on ... tolong berhenti menjadi aktor hebat di depanku! Kamu tahu Grecia yang katamu adalah klien penting? Dan anak kecil yang terus bergelayut manja meminta perhatian darimu? Sekarang aku tahu itu adalah istri dan anakmu!" Jonathan meremas rambutnya sendiri. "Oke, Fine! Aku jujur sekarang, Grecia memang istri pertamaku. Aku terpaksa menikahinya karena perjodohan, tapi anak kecil itu bukan anakku, Shira. Tolong percaya." "Apa? Bukan anakmu? Sungguh malang nasib anak itu tidak diakui oleh ayah kandungnya. Padahal aku dengar sendiri anak itu memanggilmu dengan sebutan ayah. Apa sekarang kamu akan menuduhku tuli, Nathan?" "Bagaimana aku bisa mengakui anak kecil itu adalah anakku padahal aku tidak pernah menyentuh ibunya? Grecia memang mencintaiku, tapi aku tidak mencintainya. Satu-satunya wanita yang aku cintai hanya kamu, Shira. Tolong pahami itu!" "Kebohongan apa lagi yang kamu buat? Selama ini aku terlalu bodoh percaya dengan semua bualanmu padahal kamu sutradara licik di balik sekanerio kejam yang kamu buat!!" "Cukup, Shira. Aku tidak berbohong, aku sudah melakukan test DNA tanpa sepengetahuan Grecia. Hasilnya memang anak itu bukan darah dagingku!" Tak menggubris Jonathan yang terus berkelit, Shira memilih memasukkan semua bajunya ke dalam koper. "Tunggu surat gugatan cerai dariku, Nathan!"

Jude Queens never believed in fairytales—until Malachi Flynn crashed into his world with a grin like summer and a spike that could stop time. Bound by their shared love for volleyball, their chemistry burned bright and fast, leaving everything else in the shadows. But just as Jude opened his heart, Malachi vanished without a word.

But buried beneath Malachi’s smile are secrets that could shatter them both. Torn between anger and longing, Jude must decide: can he forgive the boy who left him in pieces, or is some pain too deep to heal? “Why Did You Leave Me When I Needed You Most?” is a sizzling, tender story of second chances, the scars we carry, and the hope that love—real, soul-deep love—can echo back stronger than before.
