Tere Liye Hai Mera Dil

Pada hari ulang tahunku yang ke-16, tiga saudara laki-lakiku pulang bersama seorang gadis bernama Siti Kusuma. Mereka mengatakan aku harus memperlakukannya seperti keluarga sendiri. Aku kira tidak banyak yang akan berubah. Tapi beberapa tahun kemudian, semuanya benar-benar berubah. Jason Kurniawan, adik bungsuku, mendorongku jatuh dari tangga karena dia. Anto Kurniawan, kakak tertuaku yang pernah berjanji akan melindungiku selamanya, kini mengusir aku dari rumah. Jadi aku pergi diam-diam. Dan mereka mengira aku hanya sedang memberontak. Mereka bahkan membawa Siti ke Franzia tanpa mencariku. Yang tidak mereka tahu adalah aku telah menandatangani kontrak dengan perusahaan musuh terbesar keluarga kami, sebagai ahli kimia termuda mereka. Tercatat jelas dalam kontrak bahwa aku tidak akan bisa kembali ke rumah lagi. Malam ketika mereka menyadari aku benar-benar telah pergi untuk selamanya, barulah mereka menyesali semuanya.

"Alam mo ikaw ha, masyado kang pala-desisyon. Buhay ko ito kaya huwag kang makialam lalo pa at wala naman ako’ng naging say sa love life mo,” naiinis na pahayag ko kay Franco. Naiinis kasi ito nang malaman na gusto ko ng magkaanak. Lagpas na ako sa kalendaryo at sa takot ko na mapag-iwanan ay ito ang naisip ko na solusyon. Wala sa vocabulary ko ang pag-aasawa dahil na rin sa naging karanasan ng nanay ko at sa nakikita ko sa paligid ko kaya nawalan na ako ng interes lalo na sa mga lalaki. Maraming nanliligaw subalit lahat sa akin ay red flags. Dagdagan pa nitong kaibigan ko na walang inaayawan basta naka-palda sa paningin nito lahat ay maganda. Mabait naman ito, matalino, responsable, masipag at madiskarte subalit sadyang palikero. “Ako ha, concern lang ako sa iyo. Huwag sanang masamain. Mamaya sa kagustuhan mo ay mapahamak ka pa.” Patuloy na litanya ni Franco sa akin. “Kaya nga bago pa mangyari iyon ay uunahan ko na. Hindi ako mai-inlove, hindi ako magiging martir at lalong hindi ko hahayaan na masaktan lang ako ng kagaya mo. Kaya nga anak lang ang gusto ko at iyon na ang pupuno sa pangarap ko. Hindi ako mag-aasawa at sakit lang iyan sa ulo,” masungit na sagot ko. “Ganun ba? Bakit ka pa maghahanap sa malayo at hindi mo kilala kung mayroon naman sa harapan mo? Ako na lang kaya, ano? Makakasiguro ka pa na galing sa magandang lahi at pamilya ang magiging anak mo,” tugon ni Franco. Napamaang ako sa naging sagot n’ya. Pwede kaya o baka magiging mitsa lang ito ng bagong kalbaryo sa buhay namin? Mas makapagpapatibay o makakasira kaya ito sa aming pagkakaibigan? Subalit hindi ko maiwasan kiligin at makadama ng challenge na baka ako lang pala ang makapagpapatino kay Franco.

For Euphoria Ghale Hudgens, living with the ruthless billionaire who’s unexpectedly her ex is torture. They were married but it feels like it’s a sin to have sex with her husband, for they both knew they were only together due to an agreement, and she’s fully aware he felt hatred towards her family. She’s already immune to betrayals and lies, being battered and neglected, but will she settle with that kind of life forever? Will she accept being downgraded and caged due to his pride?

“Are you trying to punish me? I…I don't know how many times I can apologize even if it wasn't my fault that I almost—” “I never asked you to. You do whatever you want, Niya, and I really don't care. Neither should you bother with what I do.” “You're hurt. You're hurt, Alex, and you're acting out. Don't worry we could talk this through. This isn't you.” I try to reach him again but he shoots me a deadly glare that pierces through my skin like a dagger. “Sure it is. You've just never seen me like this. You don't know what I look like when I'm not in love with you,” his brows grow together. “Now we’ve had enough of your drama. You'll find the papers and enjoy the party or use the fucking door.” He pulls away and my eyes cloud again. My ears and heart find it hard to process what is actually going on. The looks on their faces tell me it is awfully too late—I have already lost everything. “Niya, careful now,” my grandmother slowly tugs at my arm as if that will somehow make everything better. “We have guests. Don’t cause a scene.” A scene? I have literally just seen a whole movie, ma. ************* My name is Niya Kendrick. I’m 25, an author who once believed she had the perfect life. But how quickly can everything I love be stripped away in the blink of an eye? Or worse, what if the life, the family I’ve cherished has always been a blatant lie, a mere fragment of the truth? Now, I’m awake, and reality is far harsher than any dream.

Aldi melepaskan pelukannya menatap wajah wanita yang sangat ia rindukan selama ini. Liam langsung menuju ke bundanya berlindung di sana. "Elina!" panggil Aldi. "Anda mengenal saya?" ketus Elina.

Saya tidak mengenal Anda, Tuan. Urusan Anda telah selesai di sini. Jadi enyahlah." Aldi menggepalkan tangan nya. Sampai kapan Elina akan berpura-pura seperti ini. "Saya orang yang kamu cinta Elina. Kamu tidak mengingat bagaimana kita memperjuangkan restu kedua orang tua kita dulu untuk menikah." Aldi sengaja agar Elina terpancing dan tidak berpura-pura lagi. Elina menatap tajam Aldi. Elina tidak mengingat apapun tentang masa lalu mereka. Karena ia tidak mau mengingatnya kembali. Terlalu sakit untuk dikenang sepanjang masa. "Pria yang saya cintai akan memperjuangkan cinta nya. Bukan malah berkhianat. Seperti yang Anda jelaskan. Saya dan Anda berjuang mendapatkan restu. Tapi setelah pernikahan, Anda tidak pernah menganggap saya hidup di rumah itu dan terakhir yang membuat saya hancur adalah poligami."

"What do you want?" he asked. "I want you to f**k me every time I do a good job." Joanne replied. Joanne Belfort didn't want to lose her new secretary job with Billionaire Charles McAllister. Her life hung in the balance. From running away from her abusive mother at home, to going to College and dropping out, and to marrying another deadbeat abuser that wanted to f**k other women that didn't want him, it seems Joanne had never done a single right thing in her entire life. But this was the final straw. After she had left her husband to crash with a former college friend and start a new secretary job, her firm had lost a paper-only bid for Charles McAllister's billion dollar company. And she was blamed for it. Mr. McAllister made a strange demand for compensation; the firm was to release her to him, or they would all face gross consequences for losing the document. Now Joanne must do everything right in her new job to avoid jail time. Will Joanne manage to get it right this time? Does the billionaire want her just for her body, or something else? Is her ex-husband still lurking out somewhere for a second chance? Can Joanne and Charles both handle the oncoming fallout of this spontaneous relationship?
