View More“Dokter ini … kenapa terima pasien waktu klinik sudah mau tutup?”
Suara setengah menggerutu dari asistennya itu membuat Syifa menghela napas pelan. Meski begitu, tangannya sudah bergerak lincah mengambil sampel dari ikan arwana yang baru saja tiba di kliniknya.
Seharusnya, ia sudah berada dalam perjalanan ke kantor catatan sipil untuk menikah saat ini. Namun, di detik-detik terakhir, seorang pria paruh baya datang dengan wajah nyaris menangis dan memaksa Syifa memeriksa ikan yang ia bawa.
“Sudahlah, Fi,” ucap Syifa kemudian. “Pemiliknya memaksa. Katanya pasien udah ditolak beberapa klinik.”
“Tapi saya juga sebenarnya mau sarankan buat tolak aja, Dok,” balas Afi, si asisten. “Salah sedikit, kita dituntut miliaran nanti.”
“Kalau gitu, gerak yang cepat.” Syifa menanggapi singkat. Ia menyodorkan tabung berisi sampel lendir dan darah si ikan. “Jangan ngomel mulu.”
Sepeninggal Afi, fokus Syifa kembali ke pasien di hadapannya, seekor ikan arwana dengan sisik warna putih keperakan. Penggemar ikan dan dokter hewan seperti Syifa tahu ini bukan ikan arwana biasa.
Ikan itu masuk ke dalam deretan ikan sultan yang harganya bisa mencapai miliaran rupiah, tergantung pada usia si ikan. Bahkan, bayi platinum arowana saja bisa mencapai puluhan juta sendiri.
Karenanya, ia tidak boleh salah langkah. Syifa memastikan betul kadar oksigen dalam air, suhu air dan segala macam pendukung untuk memastikan ikan itu tetap bertahan sampai hasil laboratorium keluar dan Syifa bisa mengambil tindakan apa yang akan dia lakukan.
Namun, tak lama kemudian, Syifa menyadari bahwa gerakan insang si ikan makin lama makin pelan dan jarang. Lalu–
–tubuh ikan itu oleng ke samping dan diam.
“Astaga!” pekik Syifa tertahan. Ia buru-buru memastikan kondisi si ikan miliaran rupiah itu.
“Dok, ini hasil lab–loh, Dok, ikannya kok oleng…”
Syifa seperti tidak mendengar suara si asisten. Dirinya fokus mencoba memulihkan ikan mahal yang dipaksakan ke meja pasiennya ini. Tapi mau dicek berapa kali, hasilnya tetap sama.
Ikan itu sudah mati. Tidak bisa hidup lagi.
Seketika Syifa diliputi keringat dingin.
“D-Dok, ikannya mati?” gumam Afi dengan suara bergetar. “Kita gimana, Dok? Kalau pemiliknya nuntut kita–”
"Loh, Dok? Ikannya mati?" pekik suara lain memotong kalimat Afi. Bapak-bapak paruh baya yang membawa ikan mahal ke klinik Syifa itu tiba-tiba muncul dan meratap. “Aduh, Dok. Mati. Bos saya bisa ngamuk. Kita bisa dituntut!”
Pikiran Syifa langsung kosong. “Bapak bukan pemiliknya…?”
***
Setelah menenangkan pria paruh baya yang ternyata hanya sekadar supir tersebut, Syifa menunggu kehadiran si pemilik ikan dengan hati yang gelisah. Pikirannya sibuk menyusun penjelasan secara runut mengenai penyakit si Boy dan kronologi tewasnya mendiang ikan arwana tersebut.
Katanya pemilik asli si ikan itu dokter penyakit dalam. Itu bagus, berarti seharusnya, si pemilik paham kalau hidup dan mati pasien, sekalipun diusahakan, berada di tangan Tuhan.
Sebagai sesama petugas medis, Syifa mengharapkan pemiliknya mengerti.
Ting, tong!
Suara bel pintu depan klinik membuat Syifa sontak berdiri. Wanita itu tersenyum sopan dan siap menjelaskan dengan hati-hati disertai permohonan maaf untuk ikan yang mati itu.
Namun, rencana Syifa buyar seketika saat melihat siapa yang datang. Sepasang matanya yang jernih seketika membola tidak percaya.
"Ka-kamu ...." Syifa tergagap, matanya menatap sosok itu dengan saksama.
“Selamat siang,” ucap pria tinggi tegap berkulit sawo matang tersebut. Manik hitamnya menatap Syifa tajam. “Saya pemilik ikan platinum arowana yang baru saja tewas.”
Syifa langsung lemas, sama sekali tidak menyangka bahwa pemilik ikan seharga miliaran itu adalah musuh bebuyutannya saat SMA.
Black Grave pack...Five days on...Waking up to the blank memories of the past few days has been the worst days of her life. Yes, she has been living with that for the past years, but lately, she has been curious. The past she never wanted to know about is now haunting her, and she needs to know about it. Maybe she'll be able to have clues about who she is. It's a beautiful evening, and the view from the garden looks great. She is supposed to be smiling heartily as she stares at the beauty of the flower, but how's she supposed to be happy when everything reminds her of that monster? How's she supposed to still feel the connection between herself and the beautiful flowers, when he already ruined her life and her entirety? Slowly, she clenches her fists and grits her teeth as she glares hard at the flower. Suddenly, she feels her heart wrenches in pain. It's coming again, that demonic power that took her body, that power that buried her good heart and manipulated her. She tries to st
Chapter 6 Iris POV "The Alpha sent us to come get you," One of the guards utters coldly, and I can't help the scoff that tears through my throat. The only person I'm scared of in this pack is the Alpha, and nobody else, so if this guard thinks he can intimidate me with that look, then he better go back and learns more about how to scare me. "So what? Is that why you barged in just like that? I'm sure you know how to knock, or nicely announce your presence other than barging in like that, right?" I snap at them angrily as I clench my fists, trying so hard to suppress the anger that keeps trying to consume me. I don't care about what happens next, I may slap these bastards now. "Iris, please," Mom whispers behind me, and I sigh briefly. Turning to face her, I pull her into my arms and hug her tightly like it's the last time we are ever going to see each other. Tears stream down my cheeks as I hug her like I should never let her go. Although we are still going to see each other often
Chapter 5 Three years ago Iris POV "You will be working as my kid's maid henceforth," Alpha Lorenzo says to me with his dark eyes glaring hard at me, and I gulp down nothing as I feel my heart beating rapidly against my chest. Although it has been a couple of months since I have been here in the Grave Claw pack, but working in the castle has never crossed my mind. I gulp down nothing nervously as I stare at the man I met three days ago at the fountain. After that day, I have always wished to see him again, little did I know he is the Alpha of the pack. Standing in front of him with his dark aura consuming me now, I feel like my heart is going to explode anytime soon. "While working as my kid's maid, I don't want them to complain about you... I don't want them to have any reason to cry, and if you scold them, you will have your ill luck to blame for it," He further utters, while having his attention on the book he's reading, and that makes me even more scared. I don't think I can d
"Who are you?" He asks her the question that even she has no idea of. The same question that she has been asking herself repeatedly. Her heart beats rapidly against her chest as she slowly raises her gaze to meet his. Staring up at him, her fear and nervousness slowly disappear, replaced with anger and hatred. Recalling that the man standing in front of her now was the one that rejected her moments ago, she can't help the anger that strikes her heart again. "Did you have to kill so many people?" He asks, his voice is hard and scary, but she isn't moved a bit. Because, why should she? "I feel guilty for what I did, Lorenzo..." She stops and manages to stand up to her feet. The corner of her lips slowly twitches into a smirk as she glares hard at her. At this point, it feels like she's not scared of whatever comes out of this. Why the hell should she care? He already ruined her, he has taken away her happiness, so what's there to care about again? "I feel guilty because of the innoce
