Peyton List Bare Feet

"Temanmu ada yang Kala nggak?" tanya Ashton. Nala menghela napas berat. Mereka mulai membuka pembicaraan yang lebih serius daripada berdebat mengenai siapa yang seharusnya membersihkan rumah. Alasan sebenarnya Nala harus pisah rumah dengan orang tuanya dan tinggal di sebuah rumah kuno di desa bersama Ashton. Rumah yang sering dikunjungi Nala ketika ia masih kecil. Rumah yang perlahan terlupakan ketika neneknya meninggal dunia. Rumah ini. Wasiat yang diberikan oleh neneknya sudah jelas, rumah ini diwariskan kepada Donny Ardana—ayah Nala. Namun ada catatan lain yang melengkapi surat wasiat itu. Nenek ingin agar Nala yang menempati rumahnya, tepat saat Nala berusia enam belas tahun.

Awalnya Nala tidak siap menerima warisan ini, namun ada hal lain yang memaksa Nala agar segera pindah dan memenuhi wasiat Nenek. Ini mengenai jati dirinya. Bahwa ia bukan manusia biasa, melainkan seorang Bareksa. Sebuah kaum yang memiliki kekuatan khusus, untuk melindungi daerah tempat mereka tinggal. --- Nala bukanlah gadis biasa. Dia seorang Bareksa, ras dengan kekuatan diatas rata-rata manusia pada umumnya. Dalam melaksanakan tugasnya, Nala menyamar sebagai siswi SMA Rajasanagara, tempatnya bertemu Bagus, kakak kelas anggota OSIS yang ramah dan murah senyum. Mampukah Nala mengemban tugasnya sebagai Bareksa? Ataukah dia memutuskan untuk mengabaikan status rasnya agar bisa menjalani kehidupan normal selayaknya anak SMA?

Who meets Prince Charming in an elevator while carrying their broken shoe? Lena Masterson was having a rough day. Her coffee pot exploded, her favorite heel broke on the way to work, her computer died, and her coworker sabotaged her performance review that she should have aced. To top it all off, she had to stay late. So when she ran into a handsome stranger at work, she was certain that it was the worst day of her life. Instead, it was the start of something wonderful. From the moment she nearly bowled the man over, she thought about him. She didn’t know anything about him, and could only assume that he was someone’s assistant. Still, the encounter left her with new self-confidence. She made a move assertive enough to get the attention of her boss’ boss, and be granted a new position as the personal paralegal of the head partner. This promotion soon led to an important trip to the Caribbean, where she saw a familiar face on the beach… Everything seemed perfect when she was in Aiden’s arms, but he was holding something back. Worse, Lena was keeping a secret from him as well. She knew that she couldn’t keep up her little white lie forever, but it turned out that Aiden’s secret was much bigger. Much much much bigger. A billion times bigger, in fact. Even though he treated her like Cinderella at the ball, it was possible that the billionaire playboy just thought of her as one of his “flavors of the week”. After saying goodbye with one last barefoot kiss and returning to the real world, there was a burning question on Lena’s mind: Did this Prince Charming love her as much as she loved him?

Snowie Walton, the belle of the class, claimed she could hear my thoughts. When a classmate gained weight from hormone medications, she pointed at me and shouted, "Why did you call Eva a disgusting fat pig? Do you think you'll never be ill in your life?" The others believed her right away. They surrounded me, relentlessly demanding that I apologize publicly. From that day onward, I was isolated by the entire class. Later, during a lesson, the teacher mentioned her family. Snowie suddenly turned on me again. "What do you mean that our teacher only got this job through connections and that she has no capabilities at all? Show some respect!" I desperately explained that I had never thought such things, but the teacher didn't believe me. Not only was I written up for disciplinary action, but my scholarship was also revoked. Then, confidential documents from the school labs were stolen. Once again, Snowie blamed me. "How could you sell those files to foreigners and say that they were only worth a hundred thousand?" I was arrested by the police and convicted of leaking state secrets. I was sentenced to life imprisonment. In the end, I died in prison, consumed by depression. When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the very day Snowie accused me of insulting Eva. By this time, she didn't know that I had uncovered her secret behind her so-called ability to hear my thoughts.

When I submit my resignation letter, my boyfriend, Daniel Carter, happens to have an arm around the new intern, Kimberley Lester, while teaching her how to secure a deal that's worth ten million dollars. After he's done with his lesson, he finally spares my resignation letter a glance. "What are you on about this time, my dearest sales champion?" I reply calmly, "I've already transferred all details of the company's clientele to others. I don't want any bonuses and commissions of this quarter. In fact, I've already had the finance department recall the funds and list it as the company's funds." Daniel is stunned for a moment. But he still thinks that I'm trying to gain his attention by sacrificing my own benefits. "You don't want money, huh? Then what do you want? You want me to fire Kimmy? Or you want me to give you some of the company's shares?" He passes a cup of coffee to me, thinking that I'll act the same way I did in the past—that I'll endure everything and keep working my ass off for the sake of my sales team. But I just shake my head. Now, I just want Daniel to watch his company fall into bankruptcy.
