Ugly Skull Emoji

Tiga bulan sebelum menikah, pacarku memposting di instagram sebuah foto dirinya bersama adik angkatku. Foto itu menunjukkan surat pernikahan mereka dan potret kehamilan adik angkatku. Caption yang dituliskan, [Resmi menyambut kehidupan kecil kami.] Adik angkatku meninggalkan komentar dengan emoji malu-malu. Ibuku memberi tanda suka pada unggahan itu dan menambahkan komentar, [Aku akan menjaga anak itu setelah lahir. Kalian berdua tenang saja menikmati hidup berdua.] Aku tidak bisa menahan diri dan hanya meninggalkan tanda tanya sebagai komentar. Detik berikutnya, pacarku langsung memarahiku habis-habisan. [Dia hanya meminjam status pernikahan denganku selama satu tahun. Setelah anak lahir, aku akan kembali padamu.] [Jangan pelit begitu. Ibu juga sudah bilang, kamu baru boleh menikahiku setelah melahirkan anak laki-laki. Jadi, kita adakan pernikahan dulu, baru urus akta nikah nanti..] Aku hanya menjawab dengan datar, "Oh." Setelah itu, aku menghapus semua unggahan di media sosial yang berkaitan dengannya. Sebagai gantinya, aku memposting hal baru, [Butuh calon pengantin pria. Siapa yang mau menikah denganku?]

Saat suamiku sedang ikut acara berkemah dari kantor, asisten perempuannya tiba-tiba mengunggah sebuah postingan: "Pembagian tenda lewat undian, siapa sangka aku malah setenda dengan bosku yang tampan!" Dalam foto itu, dia sedang berswafoto menghadap kamera, sementara di belakangnya ada seorang pria yang sedang melepas bajunya— dan itu adalah suamiku. Ada yang berkomentar: "Hati-hati ya, cowok dan cewek berduaan di satu tenda, bisa berbahaya ...." Asisten itu langsung membalas dengan emoji tertawa jahil sambil menulis: "Memang aku suka yang menantang." Aku sempat memberikan 'like', tetapi tidak lama kemudian, postingan itu dihapus. Tak lama, suamiku menelepon lewat panggilan video. Di depan asisten perempuan yang sedang menangis dan beberapa rekan kerja lainnya, dia langsung marah padaku: "Kamu kok suka lebay sih? Ini 'kan cuma permainan sederhana, nggak bisa santai saja?" Melihat dia memeluk asisten itu sambil menenangkannya dengan lembut, aku pun menutup telepon tanpa berkata apa-apa lagi. Ini sudah tahun ke-10 aku mencintai Kemal Sentanu. Namun, saat ini juga, aku memutuskan untuk melepaskannya.

Matagal na niyang crush si Lucas at gagawin niya ang lahat makuha lamang ang atensyon ng hottie CEO. Nang mangyari ang kanyang nais ay saka naman nalaman niyang ikakasal na pala ito pero hindi iyon naging rason para itigil niya ang pang-aakit kahit pa nga sabihing ilang insulto at pagpapahiya ang ginawa nito sa kanya. Hanggang saan siya dadalhin ng kanyang kabaliwan? Makukuha niya kaya ang atensyon ng isang kilalang CEO?

Bilang CEO ng Montenegro Cars Inc., kilala siya sa kanyang hindi mapaglabanang dominanteng presensya, na nagiging dahilan upang siya ay pagpantasyahan ng maraming kababaihan. Gayunpaman, kilala rin siya sa kanyang malupit na taktika sa negosyo. Ano ang mangyayari kapag nagkrus ang landas niya sa isang babaeng lampa at nakakainis na umabala sa isa sa kanyang mahahalagang board meeting?

Isang salita para ilarawan si Leah Olaer: Mataba. At dahil sa kanyang matabang katawan, nagtaksil ang kanyang fiancé na si Kyle at ang babaeng pinagtaksilan siya ay tinawag siyang ugly fat duckling. Hindi lang puso niya ang nasaktan kundi pati ang pride niya bilang isang babae. Kaya naman nang gabing nalaman niya na niloloko lang siya ng kaniyang fiancé, pumunta siya sa isang bar at nilunod niya ang sarili sa alak. That night, Leah was so down, hurt, in pain and depressed, then she came across Achilles Williams. Ang gwapong lalaki na walang kahihiyang hinalikan siya sa harap ng maraming tao. Sa sobrang kalasingan niya, naulit ang halik na nauwi sa mainit na pagtatalik. Saka lang niya narealize na mali ang ginawa niya ng magising siya kinabukasan at wala na ang kalasingan niya. So Leah did the most reasonable thing to do. Tumakas siya. At napatunayan ni Leah na ang kasabihang 'Kahit anong iwas mo, ang kapalaran ay hahabulin ka.' Dahil kahit saan siya tumakbo, naroon si Achilles at naghihintay sa kanya para akitin siya. Maniniwala ba siyang iba si Achilles sa manloloko niyang fiancé? Hahayaan ba niya ang puso na mahalin ang isang makisig at guwapong lalaki na alam niyang hindi bagay sa kagaya niyang ugly fat duckling? O babaguhin niya ang sarili niya para maging bagay siya rito?
