Cerita Romance

Berat badanku melonjak drastis setelah menikah dengan suamiku. Sehari sudah makan lima kali, tapi tetap saja masih lapar. Namun, tubuhku dinyatakan normal saat menjalani pemeriksaan. Aku melakukan siaran langsung di internet untuk meminta bantuan dari para warganet. Seseorang bilang, "Kamu terus-terusan merasa lapar? Mungkin suamimu memberimu guna-guna." "Guna-guna itu membuat istri sah makin tertekan, sementara wanita yang jadi kekasih gelap lebih diuntungkan."

Pada hari libur semester, unggahan di status WhatsApp yang paling viral adalah tentang diriku. Judulnya adalah, "Pak Bondan membawa putranya untuk merayakan ulang tahun cinta sejatinya. Apakah dia akhirnya berencana bercerai dengan Sofia Jayadi?" Aku diam-diam menyukai postingan itu. Saat ponselku berdering, aku sedang membongkar balon-balon yang telah disiapkan untuk hari jadi pernikahan. "Sayang," ujar suamiku dengan terburu-buru, ingin memberikan penjelasan. "Anak kita tiba-tiba merengek ingin pergi ke taman bermain, jadi aku ...." Di latar belakang, terdengar suara tawa anak kami. "Ayah, Bibi bilang kalau malam ini aku bisa tidur dengannya!" Aku menatap rumah yang berantakan ini. Balon-balon tampak terkulai lemas, sementara krim di atas kue sudah mengeras. "Kamu nggak perlu menjelaskan." Aku mendengar diriku berkata, "Aku memahami semuanya." Hanya saja, kali ini semuanya akan berbeda. Aku tidak menginginkan ayah dan anak ini lagi.

Sudah delapan tahun aku menikah dengan Elvin Ginanjar, pemimpin mafia narkoba di Nasara. Namun pada hari ini, tepat pada hari peringatan pernikahan kami, aku menerima sebuah foto dirinya bersama sahabat terbaikku, Lina Malloni, merayakan seolah merekalah yang menikah. Dan dalam pelukannya adalah putraku, Owen Ginanjar. Aku menatap foto itu, lalu mengetik dua kata sebagai balasan. [Betapa sempurnanya] Setengah jam kemudian, Elvin menerobos pintu depan. Suaranya bergemuruh memenuhi lorong. “Kenapa kamu selalu begitu jahat pada Lina?” Owen, anak kandungku sendiri mendorong kakiku sambil menatapku dengan marah. “Ibu jahat,” katanya. “Aku harap Bu Lina jadi ibu asli aku.” Aku tidak terkejut. Aku hanya berjalan menuju lemari, mengeluarkan setumpuk dokumen yang telah kusiapkan sejak lama, lalu menjatuhkannya di meja dengan kepastian yang dingin. “Baiklah,” kataku dengan datar. “Semua salah aku. Sekarang, bolehkah aku pergi?”

Di tengah malam, aku berlutut lemas di ambang jendela, terengah-engah dengan napas berat, dan air liurku menetes tanpa bisa kucegah. Di belakangku, teman sekelas anakku dari sekolah olahraga itu merobek stoking hitamku dengan kasar, lalu meraba pantatku yang bulat dan montok. Dia mencengkeram rambutku erat dan berbisik dengan nada menggoda, "Tante, apa anakmu tahu, kalau kamu seliar ini?" Tepat saat itu, ayahnya juga masuk. "Nak, kamu masih kecil, banyak hal yang belum kamu pahami. Ayah akan mengajarimu..."
