Must Go

Anggur merah mengalir perlahan menyusuri leherku yang jenjang, turun hingga ke tulang selangka, lalu ke bagian dadaku yang putih dan berisi. Cairan merah itu membasahi kedua buah dadaku, sebagian mengalir ke celah yang dalam di antaranya, lalu merembes ke kemeja putih yang kukenakan. Pakaianku pun menempel erat di tubuhku, membuat dua tonjolan lembut di dadaku tampak samar di baliknya. Tubuhku mulai bergetar pelan karena gugup, tetapi di saat yang sama, ada sensasi tegang yang sulit dijelaskan. Ini pertama kalinya aku dengan sadar mencoba menggoda pria lain selain suamiku.

Jentra Kenanga adalah salah seorang anggota perajurit khusus (Sandi/Mata-mata) Medang dan berpangkat panglima. Ia memiliki tugas dan misi khusus untuk mengawasi pergerakan Wangsa Sanjaya yang dianggap sebagai pemberontak oleh Maharaja Rakai Garung. Namun disamping itu, ia juga mengemban misi rahasia dari Mahamentri I Halu atau keluarga raja yang berasal dari wangsa Syailendra untuk menemukan mustika yang terletak di Puncak Udarati(Gunung Arjuna saat ini). Mustika ini konon memiliki kesaktian di dalam mengendalikan Chakramandala atau penguasaan atas semesta. Di dalam upayanya mencari mustika itu, Jentra yang ditemani Rukma (anak yang diselamatkannya saat banjir bandang) tidak hanya harus bertempur dengan para Raja yang menginginkan mustika itu. Ia juga dipertemukan kembali dengan Candrakanti, gadis yang pernah sangat dicintainya namun karena dendam yang mendalam atas kematian keluarganya, Jentra berusaha melupakan gadis itu. Namun ternyata ia tidak bisa menghapus gadis itu dari setiap perjalanan hidupnya yang rumit. Perseteruan untuk memperebutkan mustika itu juga menempatkan dirinya dan Candrakanti di dalam posisi yang saling bermusuhan, karena Candrakanti mendapatkan tugas khusus dari Maharaja sendiri. Akankah cinta mereka kembali bersatu? Dan siapakah yang akan memenangkan mustika Udarati? Mampukah Rukma meyakinkan Jentra untuk tidak hanya memperjuangkan mustika Udarati tetapi juga cintanya?

Natasha tidak pernah membayangkan bahwa pria yang cinta mati padanya akan berselingkuh saat dia baru melahirkan. Ketika dia melihat bayinya membuka mata dan tersenyum, dia menggendong bayi itu dengan antusias, ingin berbagi kebahagiaan ini dengan Abian. Tapi, saat tiba di ruang VIP itu dan tangannya memegang gagang pintu, bisikan-bisikan mesra terdengar dari dalam. "Kak Abian, enak nggak?" "Angkat pantatmu sedikit lagi."

It was my third year with Timothy Jones when he had fallen for someone else and wanted to end things. At his birthday party, he embraced a petite and cute woman, telling his friends, "It's better to go for the sweet, innocent ones." Someone asked, "What about Olivia?" "Olivia? We've been fooling around for three years. Sure, she's fun, but sometimes you need a change of pace, right?" The "Olivia" he casually dismissed was me. And his new girlfriend? None other than my dad's illegitimate daughter, Willow Lambert. It was fine. I decided it was time for me to change things up, too.

Sienna Lewis had been with Sea City’s cold and distant CEO, Zayden Scott, for four years, but he still refused to let his guard down. So, she called her mother. “Mom, you can go ahead and arrange that pilot interview for me now.” On the other end, Helen Bennett sounded shocked. “Really? Didn’t you want to stay in Sea City and get married? You even gave up your dream of becoming a pilot.” Sienna looked at Zayden under the dim lights. He was madly obsessed with that girl and terrified of losing her. She smiled self-deprecatingly. Once she returned to Helmswick, her career would pick up again. From then on, nothing would hold her back. She would be Sienna Lewis, the pilot, again, not some pathetic woman—trapped in a forbidden love affair.

Carl Larson's intern is about to die, and her only wish is for him to sleep with her once. I disagree, and he says I'm petty. "It's just a one-time thing. She's about to die! Why do you have to assume I'm up to something dirty?" Is that so? I've seen them together more than once, though. I later agree, and he's relieved… until he sees me lying on his operation table for an abortion. He widens his eyes in disbelief. "What are you doing here?" I smile. I want him to murder his child. I want him to regret this for life.

My mother-in-law brings a woman from the countryside. She looks like she's up to no good when she asks my husband and I to care for the woman. My husband is a mama's boy through and through. His gaze darts around, and he doesn't object to his mother's words. Is it a trend nowadays for people to serve mistresses on a silver platter? It looks like I'll have to do my best in "caring" for them, then…

"I was able to pass the baton of truth. But it did not only cost me my life, it also cost me my family's life. If only I was living an ordinary life, maybe.. maybe..." ____ Fate: You're presented with new life. Choose your fate. ____ "Make it ordinary" ____ Fate: Alright. ____ Have you heard that Fate is cruel? It's true. ____ If you can chase it. (Fate whispered)

Ang huling tanda ni Alina, kulang na lang ay maglagay siya ng sign na “fresh grad for hire” sa kanyang noo dahil sa hirap makahanap ng trabaho. Kaya laking gulat niya nang magising siya sa langit—este sa ospital pa lang naman. Sumalubong ang mukha ng isang batang lalaki na ‘mommy’ ang itinawag sa kanya! Aangal pa ba siya kung sunod na pumasok sa eksena ang super hot nitong daddy? At parang hindi pa sapat ang pagkawindang, pagtingin sa kalendaryo’y mistulang bumaliktad ang mundo niya. Paano’y limang taon na ang lumipas mula sa huling tanda niya! Parang may nag-fast forward sa kanyang buhay at ngayon, wala siyang choice kung hindi humabol!

Knoxville sneered at me. “Say what you want to say right here. You're not welcome in my house,” he thundered, his voice dripping with disdain. I couldn't believe his audacity. “You're a nobody who betrayed me! I was the one who helped you, and this is how you repay me?” I shouted, my voice echoing through the neighborhood. Knoxville smirked. “I'm somebody, remember? I told you about my luxurious life before I was disowned. Don't act like you did me a favor,” he said, his tone ungrateful and arrogant. Getting betrayed by the person you love and trust so much after given him your entire life could be the worst betrayal in your life. But coming back stronger to make him miserably by using his brother could be wonderful paybacks right, She has decided to choose the right revenge.
