Infinite Jest – David Foster Wallace

Dokter berkata, aku hanya sisa tiga hari. Gagal hati akut. Satu-satunya harapan adalah uji klinis yang sangat berisiko, peluang terakhir dan paling tipis bagiku untuk bertahan hidup. Namun, suamiku, David, malah memberikan kuota yang tersisa kepada adik perempuan angkatku, Emma, yang juga merupakan ibu baptis putriku. Kondisi penyakitnya masih dalam tahap awal. Dia bilang itu adalah “pilihan yang tepat” karena dia “lebih pantas untuk hidup.” Aku pun menandatangani dokumen untuk menghentikan pengobatan dan meminum obat pereda nyeri berdosis tinggi yang diresepkan oleh dokter. Ganjarannya adalah organ dalamku akan gagal berfungsi dan aku akan kehilangan nyawa. Ketika aku menyerahkan perusahaan perhiasan dan rancangan desain yang telah aku kerjakan dengan susah payah kepada Emma, ayah dan ibu memujiku karena menjadi “kakak perempuan yang baik”. Ketika aku setuju untuk bercerai dan membiarkan David menikahi Emma, David mengatakan “akhirnya aku bersikap perhatian”. Ketika aku membiarkan anakku untuk memanggil Emma dengan sebutan ibu, anakku bertepuk tangan dengan gembira dan berkata, “Emma adalah ibu yang lembut dan baik.” Ketika aku memberikan semua hartaku kepada Emma, seluruh keluargaku menganggapnya wajar dan tidak melihat sesuatu yang aneh pada diriku. Aku sangat penasaran, apakah mereka masih bisa tertawa setelah mendengar berita kematianku?

Sky Foster has survived plenty of things: family drama, high heels on marble floors, and growing up in a Mafia dynasty. But nothing could prepare her for someone babysitting her. Or rather, that's what it feels like when her family assigns her a bodyguard. Charlie Vale is tall, infuriatingly calm, and works for her family with the kind of deadly efficiency that makes people squirm. Especially her. He's there every day at school, in the hallways, outside her classroom, always watching, always quiet, always ruining her chances at even pretending to be a normal teenager. Charlie doesn't believe in distractions, and Sky just wants to have fun. Guarding the boss's niece should be simple: keep her safe, keep his distance, and keep his job. But Sky has a bad habit of finding trouble, and Charlie has a worse habit of following her straight into it. When a threat from the Foster family's past resurfaces, Sky becomes the target. Forced into close quarters, sparks fly and rules break as Sky begins to see the man behind the stoic guard. And Charlie? He discovers that babysitting the Mafia princess might just be the most dangerous job of his life.
