Said Kelana

Everyone knows that I've been pursuing Ciara Hudson for several years now. For her sake, I reject a marriage alliance with the Langstons and invest ten billion dollars into saving the Hudsons from the brink of collapse. But on the night before our wedding, while attempting to appease her adopted brother, Carl Hudson, Ciara allows him to take her to bed, right in our marital home. After their steamy, sordid night together, Carl emerges from the bedroom dressed in my bathrobe, showing off the bite marks on his chest. Ciara simply brushes it off with a smile, saying that Carl was merely throwing a tantrum and that I shouldn't take it to heart. She even uses the marriage to threaten me, demanding that I give Carl a house and some of my company's shares to ensure he never wants for anything in life. She even says she'll make sure my family's lineage ends with me, all for Carl's sake. The disgruntled Carl runs off with my car and even crashes into me on purpose. Even as I slump on the ground, covered in injuries, Ciara runs straight to Carl, who has nothing more than a few scratches, without sparing me so much as a glance. As I lie on the hospital bed, my head finally clears. It occurs to me that my sacrifices have moved no one but myself, and how pointless it'll be to persist in them. I call up Serena Langston, my business rival, and tell her I'll go through with the proposed marriage alliance between our families. Since Ciara has betrayed me, I don't want her anymore.

My husband and his employees went on a camping trip, and his assistant posted on social media. [We drew lots for the tents, and guess who ended up with the handsome CEO!] The post showed a selfie she took. Behind her, my husband was taking his shirt off. Someone left a comment. [A man and a woman alone together? Sounds juicy.] The assistant quickly replied with a smirking emoji. [I like a little excitement!] After I liked the post, it was deleted right away. Soon, my husband called me on video. In front of his crying assistant and several employees, he scolded, “Why did you like the post?! It was just a game! Don’t be so close-minded!” As I watched him hold the assistant in arms and comforted her, I quietly hung up. After ten years of loving Caelan Sullivan, I decided then and there to let go.

The heart that I had waited two years for was given to the fake heiress, Diane Bishop, by my husband. The doctor said that I only had a week left to live. So, I decided to undergo cryonics. I donated my body to Diane’s workshop. The day I signed the donation papers, my son threw himself into my arms and exclaimed that I had finally made up with Diane. My parents praised me for finally being a good sister to help out Diane. My husband was pleased when he said that I had finally let go of the grudge and had become more understanding. I chuckled. They were right, I had finally learned my lesson. I would give Diane my identity as the heir of Bishop Corporation and fulfill everyone’s wishes.

Daddy brought me to Aunt Jenny’s party. As I was eating a piece of cake, I tasted a cherry between the layers and hurriedly spat it out. Once, I broke out in rashes after eating a cherry and nearly died, so I was deeply traumatized by that flavor even as a young child. However, Aunt Jenny looked heartbroken. “I hid a cherry in the cake as a little surprise, just like it’s good luck to get a bay leaf in a pie. How could you be so rude, Kenny?” Daddy did not even let me explain. He chased me out in the yard and made me stand there as punishment. Mommy said it had been more than a hundred degrees out lately, so she told me to stay home and not go out to play. Now I knew just how hot 104 degrees could be! My body was all itchy, too. I was finding it hard to breathe. I wanted to ask Daddy to forgive me, but he refused to open the door no matter how hard I knocked. He glanced at me coldly through the floor-to-ceiling window. He was not going to let me back in.

My husband, Liam, got his terminally ill ex-girlfriend, Chloe, pregnant. He said it was to grant her dying wish of becoming a mother. On the day she gave birth, Liam's sister, Isabella, hired a security firm to guard the hospital, claiming it was to prevent me from causing a scene. Isabella stood by Chloe's bedside. "Don't worry, I have people posted at the entrance. If Ava dares to show up and make trouble, we'll have her thrown out immediately." Liam, seeing I hadn't come, breathed a sigh of relief. "Chloe, just focus on delivering our baby safely. Don't worry about anything else." He truly believed that since he was only fulfilling his dying ex's last wish, I would never be so unreasonable as to make a fuss. Looking at the tiny, rosy infant in his arms, he sent me a text: "Darling, I did this for you. I had her carry a child for us, so you could finally be a mother." He thought that as long as I accepted it all, this child was my ultimate reward. But what he didn't know was that I had just surrendered my residency. In one week, I would be in Kenya, working as a volunteer on a project of biomedical research. It was meant to be a final goodbye—a world away from Liam, forever. But he was searching for me like a madman, pleading for me to return.

At my son's tenth birthday, I unexpectedly gained the power to read minds. Standing before the candles, he made his wish. "I hope I score a hundred on my finals." Before I could commend his maturity, a second wish slammed into my ears. "I don't like Dad. I want Mr. Shaw to be my dad.'' My hands froze halfway through a clap.

Yusra Saidah. Nama yang cukup indah. Raut wajah yang mampu menggetarkan hati seorang lelaki bernama Tengku Faiz Iskandar. Sekilas pandang dia tahu gadis itu turut menyukainya. Rezeki bagaikan turut menyebelahinya. Ada makna rupanya disebalik kepulangannya ke Malaysia, cuti semester kali ini. Namun, itu 7tahun berlalu. Dan hari ini, Yusra Saidah. Meskipun hanya menatap sekeping gambar gadis itu, Tengku Fairuz tahu hatinya sudah terpaut. Kerana janji yg terpatri antara dua insan, telah mengikat satu ikatan suci antara mereka. Yusra Saidah milik Tengku Fairuz sepenuhnya. Tiada sesiapa yang mampu menidakkannya. "Bukan senang untuk aku hidup dengan dia. Hati dia ada orang lain." Luah Tengku Fairuz kepada temannya, Syed Ammar. "Aku janji Shah, aku akan cuba cintakan suami aku seperti mana aku cintakan Abang Faiz dulu. Lagipun aku tahu Abang Faiz dah lama buang aku dari hati dia." Sayu suara Yusra Saidah bersama linangan air mata di pipi. "Abang cari Idah. Merata abang cari tapi abang tak jumpa. Abang tak pernah lupakan Idah. Idah dah janji dengan abang, Idah akan tunggu abang balik tapi kenapa bila abang balik, Idah dah bahagia dengan dia?" - Tengku Faiz Dulu kita bahagia tapi bahagia kita tidak selamanya kerana Dia sudah tetapkan yang jodoh itu bukan milik kita. Betapa kuat kita menggengam, akhirnya kita sendiri yang akan terasa sakit.

Kecurigaan Kelana terhadap suaminya berawal dari ia yang tak pernah melihat status WhatsApp Heru, tak diizinkan menyentuh ponselnya, juga tak diberikan akses membuka sosial medianya.

Ia menganggap semua laki-laki sama, termasuk Daffa, pria yang tak pernah menjanjikan apa-apa, namun berusaha selalu ada. Apakah Daffa berhasil menembus tembok tinggi yang dibangun Kelana? Ataukah gagal, karena Kelana tetap pada keyakinannya? Ini bukan hanya tentang status yang diprivasi, ponsel yang dikunci, ataupun sandi yang diganti.
