Tiba-tiba ruangan itu sunyi, hanya terisi oleh suara mesin-mesin rumah sakit yang berdenting begitu lambat.
Kanaya menahan napas, dadanya sesak hampir meledak. Di hadapannya, ibunya terbaring koma dan satu-satunya cara menyelamatkannya adalah dengan operasi transplantasi jantung.
“Apa tidak ada cara lain, Dok?”
Suara Kanaya bergetar. Sebelumnya Dokter itu juga berkata jika biayanya bisa mencapai 20an miliar. Apa yang harus ia lakukan?
Dokter yang menangani Ayunda, ibu Kanaya, menggeleng seraya mengalungkan stetoskop.
“Itu...
satu-satunya cara...”Kanaya menggenggam tangan ibunya lebih keras, ia terisak. Teringat ibunya yang menolak dibawa ke rumah sakit karena tak mau merepotkannya.
“Nona bisa pikirkan terlebih dahulu. Saya pamit,” ucap sang dokter yang mengangguk ke arah Kanaya dan langsung pergi dari ruangan itu.
Kanaya tak bergerak, ia membeku.
Sejak ayahnya meninggal, satu-satunya orang yang bisa diharapkan ibunya adalah dirinya.
Dan kali ini, setelah bertahun-tahun merawat ibunya di Emerald City, ia dihadapkan pada sebuah dinding penghalang yang besar, dinding keputusasaan.
Akankah ini menjadi masa terakhir dengan ibunya?
Kanaya menggeleng. Demi menjernihkan pikirannya yang kalut, ia melangkah keluar kamar perawatan ibunya untuk menghirup udara segar.
Langkah kedua kakinya menuntun Kanaya pada sebuah bangku taman. Dan ia duduk di bangku itu.
Angin sepoi-sepoi bertiup menyapa dedaunan, dan menyentuh kulit wajahnya. Kedua mata Kanaya menyapu tak tentu arah pada semua yang ada di sekitarnya.
Suster, dokter, dan pengunjung rumah sakit yang berlalulalang di dekatnya hadir di benaknya bagaikan sebuah delusi. Mereka semua nyata, senyata dirinya yang duduk di bangku taman itu, namun tak bisa memberikan jawaban dari permasalahannya.
Kanaya memejamkan matanya dan menarik nafas panjang.
Dalam keputusasaan, hatinya berdoa. Tuhan, berilah petunjuk, jalan keluar. Apa pun.
"Lihat, iklan ini muncul lagi."
Kanaya membuka matanya. Ia menoleh mengikuti asal suara itu. Tidak jauh darinya dua orang perawat sedang mengobrol.
Salah satu perawat memperlihatkan temannya apa yang ada di layar telepon genggam yang ia pegang.
Teman perawat itu melirik gawai yang dipegang rekannya dan berkomentar. "Sudah berapa kali dia mencari ibu pengganti? Apa masih belum dapat juga?"
"Yang aku dengar, sudah beberapa kali mereka gagal implan. Mungkin belum rejeki," jawab perawat pertama. "Padahal kalau sampai berhasil, aku dengar uang yang ditawarkan sangat besar, lho!"
Mendengar ucapan perawat itu, Kanaya mempertajam indera pendengarannya.
"Benar. Yang aku dengar, kalau berhasil, si ibu pengganti bisa dapat milyaran! Kalau aku masih gadis, boleh juga tuh, lumayan buat beli hp ipon dan jalan-jalan ke luar negeri. Dan yang pasti, tidak perlu kerja seumur hidup!" celetuk perawat yang satu lagi dengan canda sambil mereka berjalan melewati Kanaya.
Mata Kanaya membulat. Milyaran? Ibu pengganti? Tiba-tiba percakapan kedua suster itu bagai sebuah petunjuk untuknya. Apakah ini jalan keluar yang ia cari?
Istilah ibu pengganti pernah Kanaya dengar sebelumnya. Namun, bagaimana prosesnya tidak banyak ia ketahui.
“Maaf, suster. Boleh saya bertanya?”
Tiba-tiba dua suster yang dari tadi cekikikan berhenti dan menatap Kanaya dengan canggung.
Merasa mendapatkan atensi, Kanaya tidak menyia-nyiakan kesempatan itu.
“Boleh tahu iklan apa yang suster bicarakan?”
Mereka berdua saling menatap. Lalu setelah saling menyikut, seorang suster berambut cepol berkata pelan-pelan.
“Seseorang dari keluarga kaya sedang mencari seorang ibu pengganti dengan imbalan yang fantastis.”
“Apa saya bisa mendapatkan info iklan tersebut?” pinta Kanaya dengan mata berbinar.
Permintaan Kanaya kembali membuat kedua suster saling pandang.
“Urungkan saja niatmu itu, Nona. Walaupun bayarannya besar, tetapi presentase keberhasilannya sangat kecil. Jangan buang-buang waktumu.”
Kanaya tak peduli. Ia tetap tersenyum sambil menatap suster tersebut dengan penuh harap.
Setelah menghela nafas panjang, salah seorang suster memberikan Kanaya link iklan tersebut.
“Terima kasih, Suster!”
Dada Kanaya membuncah dengan secercah harapan. Ia segera kembali ke ruangan ibunya.
Optimisme yang pada awalnya begitu gelap, kali ini memunculkan asa baru!
Sekembalinya ke kamar perawatan ibunya, Kanaya masih fokus membaca iklan yang sebelumnya ia dapatkan.
Dikatakan dalam iklan tersebut imbalan yang begitu besar akan diberikan jika program itu berhasil ditunaikan.
Terbersit keraguan di dada Kanaya. Ia dituntut untuk mengandung seorang anak selama sembilan bulan, untuk kemudian memberikan anak itu kepada orang lain? Kanaya seketika menahan nafas.
Meskipun anak yang dikandungnya nanti bukan darah dagingnya, bisakah ia menyerahkannya begitu saja?
Di tengah kontradiksi pikirannya, tiba-tiba tangan yang sedari tadi ia genggam bergerak.
“Ibu, ibu sudah sadar?”
Ayunda berusaha menggerakkan tubuhnya, namun seketika ditahan oleh anak sematawayangnya itu.
“Ibu jangan bergerak dulu, kata dokter ibu harus istirahat yang cukup.”
Ayunda mengelus pipi kiri anaknya itu seraya menatapnya dengan sayu. "Naya, Ibu mau pulang. Ibu merasa sudah lebih baik."
"Nanti Bu, kalau Dokter sudah mengizinkan." Kanaya memaksakan sebuah senyuman. Ia tidak ingin ibunya tahu apa yang tengah dipikirkannya.
"Ibu sudah tidak apa-apa, kemarin ibu hanya kecapean saja. Sekarang sudah sehat! Lihat?!" Ayunda juga bersikukuh menunjukkan jika ia baik-baik saja.
Kedua mata Kanaya menggenang dan hatinya pilu memperhatikan ibunya yang berpura-pura tidak menahan sakit di depan matanya. Padahal Kanaya mengetahui kondisi ibunya sebenarnya sedang tidak baik-baik saja.
"Ibu, maafin Naya ya Bu." Kanaya memeluk ibunya dengan hati yang sedih. Ia merasa tidak berguna.
Ayunda melepas pelukannya dan menghapus airmata di pipi Kanaya. Ia menggeleng tidak ingin putrinya menyalahkan dirinya sendiri.
"Ibu sangat bangga padamu, Naya. Selama ini kamu sudah menjaga dan merawat ibu dengan sangat baik. Dan sekarang sudah waktunya kamu memikirkan masa depanmu. Jangan khawatirkan ibu, ya?"
Kanaya tidak ada jalan lain selain tersenyum, meski hatinya begitu sedih.
Biaya yang dibutuhkan untuk menyembuhkan ibunya begitu besar. Ia tak akan mendapatkannya bahkan dengan bekerja puluhan tahun.
Ia pandangi lagi nomor yang tertera pada iklan tersebut. Dadanya bergemuruh.
“Ibu, percaya sama Naya, ibu akan sembuh! Naya janji!”
“I’m done packing up!- Zach come help me out will you?” Ugh, why do I have so much to drag down? I frown and put my hands akimbo, staring at my luggage when my bedroom door comes open and a nineteen year-old Zachery steps in, chuckling into his fist when he sees my things.“Don’t let that laughter sip out. Help me get this down” I order and pick up my phone from my table as I join him to take them all down. Before I knew it, six years already sped by. A lot has happened, the family especially became much larger than it was back then. Harrison’s boys are as disastrous as he was and love to raise trouble all the time. Even the last of them who's only a year old, already knows how to manipulate the adults around him.Harlow has a son and a daughter, full of mischief but are quite cool. The girl loves to get into fights…must have inherited a little of me there.“Auntie you’re leaving already? When will you come visit us again?” Little Abby asks me, tugging against the leg of my jeans
A large hand comes over my back and begins to rub gently. “You know, when you keep breaking down like this, you make it hard for us to watch you. We decided we wouldn’t cry anymore and hold it up in our hearts instead…to honor her and remember her for as long as we live…” Harrison begins to say in a soft voice.“…so can’t you do us just this little favor and not cry like this?” I gently begin to detach my face from my palms and see Harlow with a painful look on his face and my breath catches. I lower my hands, bringing them down to my thighs in fists. Sniffing, “I’m sorry. I won’t cry anymore…I promise”. I’m sorry I’m still a child and still so weak. There’s still so much I have to prepare for and so much to learn. I couldn’t be useful this time…but I won’t give up.“About what I said that night, I didn’t mean to say those hurtful words and hurt your feelings like that. I was insensitive and selfishly caught up in my own spurt, I’m sorry” I keep my gaze on my fists, glad I came o
‘Isn’t there a way to still rouse her up so she can at least communicate with her mate?’ Alpha Marcus asks and is replied by the alpha, “We will count on a minute. That’s the only opening we get to rouse her up and get the task done. The pressure on her soul is immense, we cannot afford to keep waking her from that necessary slumber”.He’s speaking in things I don’t understand again. I fall back, watching them charge towards Talon who sends Hector and Hex flying and colliding into Silver as they fall into a roll. He then sees them from the rear and he turns, ready to attack when the white wolf and Uncle Gabriel both combine a barrage of attacks into his side and kick him away from where mom lies.Talon remains resilient, refusing to be pushed over, baring his dentition ferociously and making a leap, descending with his head first. The white wolf leaps too, their heads colliding in a massive headbutt.'What the hell...' I blink, reluctant to believe they're both still agile after tha
“The undisputed king of the Black Night Wolf Clan…” The white wolf alpha growls with cold reverence as he glares towards Talon who isn’t making a move yet, as if he’s taking in the new comers and trying to decipher according to his own sentiments what side they’re on. Friend or foe?‘W-what’s going on?’ Mustering the energy to link my mate and he snaps right in my direction, catching my gaze and getting alarmed to see the state I’m in. I try on a weak smile and look to my side to see a very tall woman, dressed in the same clothes as that white wolf and coming towards me.She crouches next to me, a beautiful smile on her face as she takes off her cloak and drape it over my nakedness. I blush and lower my head and she speaks, “It seems you’re his Luna, my cousin that is”.“Y-your cousin?” I look at her with wide eyes, noticing Silver’s running over as well. She glances at him and back at me, nodding, “His mother, Teresa, was my father’s younger sister. She was such a kind and lovin
“He’s my mom’s older brother and the alpha of the pack she belonged to before she got together with dad” I give him my reply and quickly add, “He treasures mom like a gem and always flies over whenever she gets into any trouble”.“Oh…” He expels and I shrug, wondering what they must be talking about
I look away from her to see he’s stepping into the cell again and before I know it, he yanks her by the hair, dragging her away from me as she fights with her nails to get his hands off when he throws her to the floor and rams his foot into her abdomen.‘Mother!’ I charge onto my feet and grit regret
I fall sick at heart, agony rattling around my being as they zip past, ganging up on Olyver. The piercing cry of shriek and terror plunges into the air as I shut my eyes…the pain and grief eating away at me faster that a lethal poison.‘Odelia….’ I feel so helpless, seeing Hogan approach us…crouching
Glancing over at Odelia who’s talking to the pack’s beta’s mate, I wonder how I’m gonna shake her off so I can leave. Silver is so dead when I get him, how dare he leave me alone without even a word?‘Like you have an excuse yourself for what you did last night’ My wolf scoffs at me and my lips sew s
