Dear Ayah

Putraku berusia tiga tahun, tetapi dia sama sekali tidak terlihat mirip dengan suamiku. Ayah mertuaku merasa curiga, jadi dia diam-diam membawa anakku untuk melakukan tes DNA.

Nggak mungkin kan, mereka melakukan itu saat aku sedang tidak ada di rumah?

Itu terasa mengasyikkan dan penuh adrenalin, kan? Aku suka!
