"Kerja! Kerja! Setiap hari itu saja yang kau rengekkan!" kesal Anton kepada istrinya, Selena. Dia menggebrak meja makan dengan kasar, bahkan piring, mangkok dan gelas ikut bergoyang karenanya. Saking emosinya setiap pagi mendengar istrinya merengek ingin kerja. Padahal, dia tidak kekurangan memberikan nafkah. "Tapi, aku bosan di rumah, Mas," jawab Selena. Dan selalu saja, alasan yang Selena ucapkan tidak pernah berbeda, selalu karena bosan di rumah. "Kau tidak perlu bekerja! Tugas istri itu hanya dirumah, mengurus rumah tangga!" teriak Anton semakin emosi. "Tapi..." "Aku pergi!" potong Anton dengan cepat, meraih tasnya dan berlalu dengan mobilnya. Bahkan, dia tidak menyentuh sarapan yang sudah disiapkan Selena sama sekali. Selena hanya menatap debu yang ditinggalkan ban mobil suaminya. Dan beralih menatap meja makan yang tidak tersentuh. Dia hanya bisa menghela nafas berat. Ada setitik penyesalan bersarang di hatinya, seharusnya dia tidak membuka pembicaraan mengenai keinginannya untuk kembali bekerja. Dua tahun lalu, dia bekerja sebagai supervisor marketing di sebuah perusahaan. Namun, setelah menikah dia berhenti atas permintaan sang suami. Awalnya, dia menikmati hidupnya menjadi ibu rumah tangga. Namun, lama kelamaan rasa bosan mulai menghinggapi. Ditambah lagi, Anton tidak pernah memberikannya ruang untuk menjadi dirinya sendiri. Dia dilarang memanjakan dirinya, seperti ke salon ataupun hanya sekedar ngopi sendirian. Apalagi ketika tidak sengaja bertemu dengan teman-temannya, mereka selalu bangga dengan pencapaian karir. Sedangkan dia? Selena adalah seorang sarjana, dengan usia yang baru menginjak pertengahan dua puluh tahunan. Saat tamat kuliah sempat bekerja setahun dan akhirnya menikah. Semakin lama, dia merasa semakin kesepian. Apalagi pernikahan mereka yang hampir menginjak usia dua tahun, belum juga dikarunia seorang anak. Kalau ada anak, mungkin kesepian itu akan sedikit berkurang. "Ah, penyesalan itu selalu datang terlambat. Seharusnya dulu aku mengejar karir," ujar Selena yang akhirnya menghempaskan tubuhnya di sofa dan menyalakan televisi. Begitulah cara dia menghabiskan waktu. Kring! Kring! Ponsel yang terletak diatas meja berdering, menjerit dengan keras seolah meminta untuk segera dijawab. Dengan malas, Selena meraih ponselnya. Menggeserkan ikon gagang telepon warna hijau. Dia sempat melihat, suaminya yang menelpon. "Iya, Mas." Selena menjawab dengan datar ketika terdengar suara Anton diujung sana. "Kau dimana?" tanya Anton. "Di rumah." "Malam ini, Pak Haris mau datang ke rumah. Siapkan makanan yang enak dan pastikan rumah dalam keadaan bersih dan rapi! Jangan malas!" Begitulah Anton, setiap kata yang keluar dari mulutnya hanya sebuah perintah. Selena seolah pembantunya. Padahal, dulu saat mereka belum menikah, Anton begitu lembut dan sabar. Tapi, sekarang dia berubah seratus delapan puluh derajat. Baginya, istri itu harus menunjukkan kehebatannya di dapur, sumur dan kasur, juga tidak suka mengeluh, barulah disebut istri yang baik. "Selena, kau dengar tidak?" tanya Anton, tatkala Selena tidak segera menjawab. "Mau ngapain Mas, bos kamu datang ke rumah kita?" Selena balik bertanya. "Sudah, kau cukup lakukan saja yang aku katakan. Jangan banyak tanya! Dan ingat, jangan membuat malu!" Tut! Sambungan telepon langsung dimatikan oleh Anton secara sepihak. Selena melirik jam di dinding. Sekarang pukul dua siang. Dia harus mulai bersih-bersih dan masak. Detik berikutnya, Selena mulai berkutat di dapur. Mengolah bahan menjadi makanan yang lezat. Karena ini bos besar, jadi cukup banyak yang dia masak. Beruntungnya bahan makanan di kulkas masih cukup banyak, sehingga tidak perlu belanja terlebih dahulu. Peluh membasahi dahi Selena, bahkan dia tidak sadar kalau sudah hampir seluruh tubuhnya berkeringat. Setelah selesai masak, masih mengenakan daster putih tipis, Selena melanjutkan membersihkan beberapa bagian rumah. "Ya ampun, kenapa sih harus dadakan ngasih taunya?" ujar Selena dengan sedikit kesal menggantikan taplak meja makan dengan yang baru. "Apa Mas Anton pikir menyiapkan makanan itu gampang? Tuh lihat, sekarang gak terasa sudah pukul lima," sambung Selena berbicara pada dirinya sendiri. Selena mengelap wajahnya yang berkeringat dengan tisu. Ting nong! Ting nong! Di saat pekerjaannya belum beres, bel berbunyi. "Sepertinya paketku datang," ujar Selena tersenyum. Dua hari lalu dia memesan paket skincare, dia yakin itu pesanannya yang baru tiba. Dia hanya merawat tubuhnya dengan skincare rutin, karena kalau ke salon, jangan harap mendapatkan izin dari sang suami. "Sebentar," ujar Selena sambil mengelap tangannya ke daster, menyampirkan lap meja ke bahunya dia meninggalkan sejenak pekerjaannya. Dengan langkah ringan, Selena berjalan menuju pintu. Inilah salah satu hiburannya di rumah yaitu unboxing paket. Kriet! Selena membuka pintu. Namun, matanya membola saat melihat siapa yang berdiri di depan pintunya. Bukan kurir seperti yang dia pikirkan, tapi seorang lelaki dewasa, penampilannya rapi dan berkharisma. Selena sempat terpaku sejenak melihat bos suaminya sudah berdiri disana, bukankah katanya malam nanti baru datang? "P-pak..." sapa Selena. Haris yang berdiri di ambang pintu menatapnya tidak berkedip."What?" Sophia blurted out."Yeah, I want your body, just for a few hours. It won't take long, I promise. I'm so kind enough to take little out of people's things and leave the rest for others to enjoy too." he said, indirectly mocking her.Even his tone disgusted Sophia at this point. She was irritated by the way he spoke about her as if she was food that should be shared.She stood up angrily. "You could as well keep your money to yourself. Shameless asshole." She cursed. She was full of rage. Before she could get to the door, Kian pulled her back and threw her on the sofa. And with his hands, he pinned her down. He was obviously much stronger that she was."This is rape! How dare you?! Stop this--" Sophia voiced as she struggled."I guess you don't know who I am. You don't expect me to let you go after just the sight of your body has caused a rise in me." "How is that my fault?!" Sophia yelled."Look, calm down. You have to chill. I don't like it rough either. Okay, 20 minutes. Ju
***The phone rang countless times but the owner wouldn't pick it up. Jason smirked. His patience ran out already. He left his room for the first floor. And as he walked down the stairs, an elegantly-dressed lady walked in. Her eyes brightened up the moment she saw him."Hey darling." Jason's expression became colder as she walked towards him. She got to him and made an attempt to hug him. Jason held her hands before they touched him and released them. "Don't touch me.""Jason, what's wrong?" "Rita, when did I give you the permission to enter my house at your own will?" He questioned coldly.Rita chuckled. "Jason, what do you mean? We are going to get married very soon so why can't I come here freely? I mean, I'll eventually move in here with you so why the fuss?"Jason's eyes darkened as she mentioned marriage. It was something he couldn't avoid. His company had to partner with her father's company for some mighty goals. And he had to marry Rita in exchange for the investment
Sophia's eyes gleamed up as soon as she set her eyes on old lady Nancy, the overseer of all domestic works in Jason's house. She was an old, kind but strict woman in her early sixties."Sophia." The woman called as she got to where Sophia was. Sophia was on her feet already."Have your seat." Lady Nancy said. Sophia quietly complied and the old lady took a seat opposite her."I'll go to the point. I have many other things to do. Sophia, I'm sorry, a job couldn't be secured for you here." Sophia's pupils dilated. "Why?" She blurted out without even knowing it."Someone else passed the screening and currently, there's no vacancy."It looked like all hopes were lost for her. She not getting a job here meant she had to go back to those menial jobs she used to do. Those jobs were not enough for her to make make enough money to pay up her mother's bills."I thought--"She was about to say something then she got cut off. "Sophia, I'm so sorry you weren't accepted. I would've loved to have y
