En el mercado negro, mi padre escogió para mi hermana mayor y para mí a dos gemelos como guardaespaldas. Mi hermana, sin pensarlo, se quedó con el hermano alto y corpulento, dejándome al “mudo”, que apenas seguía con vida. Me dio lástima y lo mantuve a mi lado. Como no hablaba, lo llevaba de un lugar a otro buscando médicos y remedios. Como tenía una severa misofobia, yo siempre mantenía cierta distancia entre nosotros. Creía que había sufrido algún trauma y por eso era así. Hasta que los enemigos de mi padre nos secuestraron a mi hermana y a mí. Él me dejó atrás, eligiendo sin titubear morir para recibir la bala por mi hermana. Antes de morir, habló por primera vez; con los ojos enrojecidos le dijo a mi hermana: —Por fin puedes verme. Y a mí, en cambio, me dijo: —En la próxima vida, te lo ruego, no me elijas. Entonces entendí que no era mudo ni tenía misofobia. Lo de “mudo” y “misofobia” era solo hacia mí. Al abrir los ojos de nuevo, había vuelto al día en que elegíamos guardaespaldas. Esta vez, cumplí su deseo.

Diadopsi. Dijodohkan. Dipaksa menikahi pria yang mencintai wanita lain. Avenna tak menangis. Tak mengamuk. Dia hanya tersenyum dan menjalani peran sebagai Nyonya Hazelton yang anggun, tak tersentuh, seolah kebal pada luka. Hingga malam itu datang. Malam di mana seorang pria bayaran bertopeng merenggut kendalinya. Membisikkan dosa di balik ciuman, menyulut bara dalam tiap sentuhan, dan menyeretnya ke dunia yang tak pernah ia kenal, penuh napas panas, erangan tertahan, dan bisikan yang merusak logika. "Kau yakin… ingin lepas dariku?" Suara baritonnya merayap di telinga Avenna, menelusup ke tulang belakangnya seperti racun manis yang mematikan. "Yah, yah, aku rasa begitu." Suaranya bergetar.

"Karena hanya aku yang tahu… bagaimana membuatmu lupa siapa dirimu, dan hanya mengenal namaku dalam teriakanmu, dalam tubuhmu, dalam setiap detak jantungmu." Satu gigitan. Satu desah. Dan seluruh kendali Avenna runtuh. Tapi yang tak ia tahu… Pria itu bukan sekadar pemuas sesaat.
