Karma

Mereka kompak mendukung pernikahan suamiku dengan wanita lain, diam-diam di rumah ibu mertua. Aku akan membalas mereka dengan pura-pura tidak tahu. Akan tiba waktunya, suami akan menyesali hingga tak ada maaf dariku. Aku tak akan meratapinya lagi.

When my body was being dismembered, my fiance was helping my cousin choose her wedding dress. When he received my distress call, he said with disgust, "I hope you never come back! You can die with the bastard in your womb! Don't ever call me again. The mentioning of your name makes me sick!" After that, he found a body part of me in a water tank on the rooftop of a hotel. He thought it was a prank, so he actually ordered white lilies and candles to be delivered to my doorstep. Only when he found my head buried in the grass under his feet on the day of our wedding did he realize that it wasn't a prank.

When my mother-in-law was poisoned and clinging to life, my toxicology knowledge was her only hope. I ended the call and grabbed my coat, ready to rush to the hospital. My husband blocked my path. "Hold on! It's the opening of Ella's haunted castle today. You're bailing to play ghost?" I stared at him, telling him about the dire situation. The poison needed to be neutralized within thirty minutes, or it would be fatal. He rolled his eyes. "Your janitor mom can drop dead for all I care. I'll toss some Monopoly money on her grave if it shuts you up. Don't try to cross me here." His best female friend draped herself over him. "In a hurry to chase some side guy? Girl, your face is longer than Herbert's when he is all revved up. Right, buddy?" Their shamelessness was almost laughable. The kicker? Herbert thought it was my mom dying.

[Rendezvous = Pertemuan] — Mungkin pepatah mengatakan 'Dunia itu sempit seperti daun kelor' benar adanya. Semesta juga memiliki macam-macam karma yang membuat banyak orang terkadang menyesali apa yang ia katakan ataupun lakukan. Tapi banyak juga yang mengatakan Karma itu indah dan Pertemuan juga indah. Tapi sepertinya tidak berlaku bagi wanita berumur 25 tahun itu. Meski tak sebenci dulu, namun pertemuan dengan pria berumur terpaut lumayan jauh itu menjuluki bahwa pertemuan tersial yang ia temui. Apalagi pertemuan buruk ditambah karma buruk pula, nyatanya ia harus terjebak dengan pria tersebut dalam jangka waktu tidak bisa ditentukan. — "Bapak tu kenapa kalo sama saya sensi terus? Heran saya." "Saya penasaran kenapa kamu benci saya." Written by mochachash

Le jour où mon père et son ex sont apparus à un gala et sont devenus un sujet brûlant sur les réseaux, tout le monde se moquait de ma mère. Elle avait sacrifié une brillante carrière pour entrer dans une famille puissante, mais après trente ans, elle n'avait ni statut ni reconnaissance. Elle n'avait même pas le courage de reprocher quoi que ce soit à la maîtresse. Après une crise de larmes, ma mère m'a regardée, épuisée. « C'est lui qui m'a trahie en premier, alors je ne veux plus de lui. » « Rosalie, tu veux partir avec moi ? » C'est à ce moment-là que j'ai reçu un message de mon copain, avec qui j'étais depuis sept ans. « Rosalie, ce n'est qu'un papier à signer. Tu peux rester ma copine, non ? » Je suis restée silencieuse quelques secondes, puis j'ai hoché la tête. Alors, le jour même de leur mariage, ma mère et moi avons disparu dans l'incendie de la villa.

Orlando and I had been together for ten years. I'd looked after his sick mom, sweating out a fever of my own, and where was he? Knocking back drinks with Rosalind, playing therapist to her broken heart. I swallowed my pride at work, getting chewed out by my boss, while he spent the night companying Rosalind because she had cramps. Then, when I got the news my mom had passed, I tried calling him, desperate for support. But nope—phone off. After a wild goose chase, turns out he was at Rosalind's graduation. That was it. I gave up. But Orlando wouldn't let go. Red-eyed, he begged me for just one more chance.

Selama enam tahun pernikahan, aku pikir aku sudah menjadi wanita yang paling bahagia karena punya suami yang bertanggung jawab dan sangat baik. Ketika aku sakit, dia merawatku dengan penuh perhatian dan tidak pernah memintaku untuk melakukan pekerjaan rumah sampai aku benar-benar sembuh. Jangankan menyentuhku dengan kasar, membentak pun tidak pernah dia lakukan, dan aku sangat bahagia mempunyai suami sepertinya karena kebanyakan suaminya temanku sudah bermain kasar. Namun nyatanya mimpiku hancur seketika, ternyata dia tidak hanya baik padaku, tapi juga kepada seorang wanita yang selama ini dia sembunyikan, dan mereka akan menikah dalam jang....

Zayn Ulrich and I have dated for seven years. However, when he's prosecuted and sent to prison, I leave him without hesitation. I turn to his best friend instead. Now, Zayn is out of prison. He rises from the ashes and uses every means possible to force me into marrying him. Everyone says he truly loves me, but no one knows the truth. Every night after our wedding, he brings different women into our bed, not even sparing my own sister. This is his punishment for my so-called betrayal. What he doesn't know is that I risked my life to clear his name—I willingly walked into a mafia hideout and traded one kidney and half my liver for the key evidence that saved him. Unfortunately, my time is running out.

Mom dies of rage when she discovers that the bride at my wedding has become Nelly Johnson, Harvey Fisher's business partner. My wedding turns into Mom's funeral the moment she breathes her last breath. Despite that, Harvey insists that the ceremony continue as planned. He even orders me to put the wedding ring on Nelly's finger. "Hurry up and put it on! I'll explain everything to you tonight!" he snarls. I ignore him and leave the hotel with Mom's body in my arms. The wedding ends with a banging success at 8:00 pm. Nelly updated her social media with a post that's liked by tens of thousands of people. "I've finally married the light of my life! I'd like to thank a certain homewrecker for leaving after remembering her place." Harvey updates his social media with a similar post. "Those who are unworthy don't deserve to be loved." I like both their posts in the ice-cold morgue. I comment, "I wish you two a lifetime of happiness." Then, I head home with Mom's ashes. When I enter the house, I see Harvey holding Nelly tightly while making out with her.
