Briefcases Tom Taylor

Laksana Raja di Laut

Letnan Tom Ah Seng, seorang perwira TNI Angkatan Darat yang berdedikasi, akhirnya memutuskan untuk pensiun setelah lebih dari 30 tahun mengabdi. Di usia lima puluh, ia memilih pulang ke kampung halamannya di Pulau Batam, dengan harapan menghabiskan sisa hidupnya dalam damai, jauh dari hiruk-pikuk tugas militer yang telah menyita sebagian besar hidupnya. Namun, segalanya berubah saat perjalanan pulang itu membawa dirinya ke tempat yang tak pernah ia bayangkan. Dalam penerbangan, Tom tertidur lelap, tetapi ketika terbangun, ia mendapati dirinya bukan lagi di pesawat. Ia berada di sebuah rumah tradisional di tepi pantai, dihiasi dengan seni khas Melayu yang begitu asing namun akrab di matanya. Pemandangan laut yang memukau tampak kontras dengan kebingungannya. Di tengah suasana yang tak terjelaskan itu, tiba-tiba sebuah layar bercahaya muncul di hadapannya, melayang dengan pesan yang membingungkan: "Masa lalu memanggilmu kembali." Potongan-potongan kenangan dari kehidupan militernya mulai terungkap, membawa ingatan akan janji-janji, pengorbanan, dan dosa-dosa yang mungkin tak pernah sepenuhnya ditinggalkan. Saat Tom berusaha memahami apa yang terjadi, ia menyadari bahwa ini bukan sekadar perjalanan menuju masa pensiun. Dunia, atau mungkin takdir, belum selesai dengannya. Ia akan dihadapkan pada misi yang jauh lebih besar dari sekadar perang-sebuah panggilan dari masa lalu yang menuntut jawaban, pengorbanan, dan keberanian terakhirnya. Di manakah Tom sebenarnya berada? Apakah ini mimpi, realitas lain, atau bayangan dari masa lalunya yang belum selesai? Dalam kisah yang penuh misteri, perjuangan, dan penebusan, Tom Ah Seng harus kembali menjadi prajurit-bukan untuk bangsa, tetapi untuk sesuatu yang lebih besar.

Fractured Heart

Nate Matthews, a 27-year-old with a worn-out briefcase and a resilient spirit, had spent five grueling years searching for a job after graduating. His numerous interviews had yielded nothing but rejection and disappointment. The last interview at L Group, a prestigious corporation, had been a disaster, until Mrs. Stacy Lin, a poised and astute interviewer, offered him a second chance. Nate's nerves got the better of him, and he blew it. Fate intervened when Nate heroically saved Mia Lin, the daughter of Stacy Lin, who later offered him a position at L Group, a stunning woman with piercing green eyes, from being hit by a speeding truck. As he was rushed into the emergency room, he was reunited with Dr. Ava, his childhood sweetheart who had shattered his heart five years ago. Her rejection still lingered, but her radiant smile rekindled old flames. Mia's assistant approached Nate with a lucrative settlement to avoid a lawsuit, but Nate refused, seeking only a genuine thank you from Mia. Little did he know, Mia would soon become his boss at L Group. As Nate navigated the demanding corporate world, he discovered Mia's unwavering dedication and drive. Despite their initial animosity, they grew closer, bonding over late-night work sessions and high-stakes deals. Nate found himself torn between Ava, the love who got away, and Mia, the captivating woman who challenged him. Unknowingly to Nate, Mia was the CEO's granddaughter and likely heir to the company. A ruthless battle for control ensued among Mia's relatives and Hunter Blake, who sought to exploit her for his own gain. But as Hunter's eyes locked onto Mia, he found himself ensnared by genuine feelings. Nate and Mia reached a crossroads: pursue their love or risk losing their careers. They chose both, defying the odds and getting married despite fierce opposition. But their happiness was short-lived. The loss of their unborn child sent shockwaves through their marriage, testing their love and resolve.
