Toxic Relationship

Aku pergi menonton konser penyanyi favoritku sendirian. Saat sesi permintaan lagu, aku sangat gembira, berdoa semoga aku menjadi penonton yang beruntung. Namun detik berikutnya, suamiku yang sedang dalam perjalanan bisnis muncul di layar lebar dan di sebelahnya adalah cinta pertamanya, Desi Maulanda. “Aku ingin meminta lagu ‘Kembali ke Masa Lalu’, kembali ke tiga tahun lalu, Martin Sutanto tidak akan pernah putus dengan Desi.” Seluruh penonton bersorak, merayakan cinta mereka. Hanya aku yang menangis. Saat sesi permintaan lagu berikutnya, aku melihat wajahku yang berlinang air mata muncul di layar lebar. “Aku juga akan meminta lagi ‘Kembali ke Masa Lalu’, kembali ke masa lalu aku tidak akan pernah menerima lamaran Martin.”

Aku tahu Stephen tidak mencintaiku. Dia menikahiku karena aku membantunya menghalangi tikaman pisau. Stephen yang membatalkan pernikahan karena cinta pertamanya kembali. Namun, dia juga yang menggila saat tahu aku menggugurkan kandungan dan pergi.

Aku punya sembilan nyawa, dan enam nyawa sudah kuhabiskan untuk Rico. Kali pertama, aku tertimbun dalam longsoran salju saat mencoba menyelamatkannya. Air dari lelehan salju memenuhi mulut dan hidungku. Kali kedua, aku diburu oleh musuhnya dan ditusuk 24 kali hingga tubuhku hancur lebur. Awalnya, dia gemetar dan berjanji tidak akan menyakitiku lagi. Pada kali ketujuh, dia sudah terbiasa dan sengaja menabrakkan mobilnya padaku hanya untuk menyenangkan seorang wanita. "Nyawanya nggak ada harganya. Asal kamu bahagia, dengan senang hati aku suruh dia mati 99 kali." "Kamu mau lihat kematian macam apa lagi? Aku akan mengaturnya sesuai keinginanmu." Aku terhempas sepuluh meter jauhnya seperti baju bekas yang terkoyak. Darah segar mengucur dari mulut dan hidungku. Namun, aku tersenyum dan menghitung dengan jariku. "Dua kali lagi, utang budiku akan terbayar lunas." Rico Sarihan tidak tahu aku hanya punya sembilan nyawa. Setelah aku mati untuk kesembilan kalinya, aku tidak akan kembali lagi. Ironisnya, saat aku benar-benar mati, dia memeluk erat mayatku yang hangus dan berbau busuk itu, tidak mau lepas. Air matanya bercucuran tak terkendali. "Tiara, kumohon bangunlah. Jangan tega begini sama aku. Kelak aku nggak akan biarkan siapa pun menyakitimu lagi." Sayangnya, tidak akan ada lagi seseorang yang menghapus air matanya dengan tangan gemetar berlumuran darah.

“Bu Fiona… usia kehamilan Ibu sudah enam bulan. Bayi sudah terbentuk sempurna… Ibu yakin ingin menggugurkannya? Kami sangat menyarankan agar prosedur aborsi tidak dilakukan,” kata dokter, raut wajahnya penuh keraguan. Fiona Darmawan secara refleks memegang perutnya yang kini mulai membesar. Enam bulan… bayinya kini sudah menjadi satu dengan dirinya. Dari sebesar biji beras, kini tumbuh menjadi sosok kecil yang nyata di dalam rahimnya… Jika bukan karena putus asa yang begitu besar, ibu mana yang tega mengakhiri nyawa anak yang hampir lahir ke dunia? Keheningan menyelimuti ruangan, begitu pekat hingga terasa sesak. Fiona menarik napas panjang, menenangkan hatinya yang bergejolak, kemudian menjawab dengan suara tegas dan penuh kepastian, “Aku yakin.”

Aku sudah delapan tahun menikah dengan suamiku, Rangga. Selama itu, dia sudah membawa pulang 99 wanita lain ke rumah. Sekarang, aku menatap gadis muda yang ke-100 di depanku. Dia menatapku dengan menantang, lalu menoleh dan bertanya, "Pak Rangga, ini istrimu yang nggak berguna itu ya?" Rangga bersandar santai di kursinya sembari menjawab, "Ya." Gadis muda itu berjalan ke arahku dan menepuk pipiku, lalu berkata sambil tersenyum, "Malam ini, dengarkan baik-baik gimana jadi wanita yang hebat!" Malam itu, aku terpaksa duduk di ruang tamu mendengarkan suara erangan dari kamar sampai fajar menyingsing. Pagi harinya, Rangga menyuruhku menyiapkan sarapan seperti biasa. Aku menolak. Sepertinya dia lupa, pernikahan kami hanya pernikahan kontrak. Dan hari ini, adalah tiga hari terakhir sebelum kontrak itu berakhir.

Di antara putri orang kaya yang asli dan palsu, aku adalah putri orang kaya asli yang dibenci. Aku dan adikku diculik secara bersamaan. Penculik kami pun memotong salah satu jariku dan mengirimkannya kepada orang tuaku. Namun, orang tuaku malah bersyukur karena itu bukan jari adikku. Adikku diam-diam memberi isyarat pada orang tuaku untuk melapor polisi, tetapi malah ketahuan penculik kami. Demi melindungi adikku, orang tuaku mengatakan bahwa aku yang membocorkan alamatnya. Oleh karena itu, penculik itu pun menyiksaku sampai mati, sedangkan adikku berhasil diselamatkan. Namun, begitu melihat tubuhku yang dimutilasi, orang tuaku akhirnya menjadi gila dan mengatakan ingin adik dan penculik itu membayarnya dengan nyawa mereka.

I looked at her amused. I got up from my seat and stood infront of her. Not too close, not yet. ''You imagine too much Ms. Vitale. I can assure you that I'm not plotting anything, although I did plan something different". I whispered the last part. ''W-what?'' She asked looking confused. Cute. ''I'm sorry for what happened that day. You are right, I shouldn't have kissed you without your consent.'' I said taking a step forward. ''You are sorry?'' She asked looking surprised. I chuckled. ''Yes'' I said taking another step. She leaned back slightly, it's almost unnoticeable, but didn't move from her place. Trying to look brave huh? ''T-Then why are you doing all this?'' She asked in low voice. I took one last step. We are finally too close. I can feel the heat radiating from her body. I started trailing my fingers from her arm to collarbone, she shuddered and goosebumps erupted on her skin. I leaned down, brushing her earlobe with my lips, making her breath uneven. ''Are you in a relationship Ms. Vitale?'' ''N-No'' Her words came out in a whisper. ''Good.''
