Kōkaku

Aku adalah seorang anak yang berasal dari kampung kumuh yang jatuh cinta pada Damon Vindaya, bos mafia yang paling ditakuti di Kota Yana. Selama lima tahun, aku adalah miliknya. Aku menahan sembilan peluru demi dia. Dia akan mencium bekas lukaku saat aku berdarah dan hampir mati untuknya, memelukku erat, dan mengalungkan kalung ratu di leherku. Kemudian, begitu aku pulih, dia akan meniduriku sampai aku kehilangan kesadaran, dengan gairah yang terasa seolah-olah tak akan pernah berakhir. Aku pikir kami akan menghabiskan hidup bersama. Aku pikir dia akan menikahiku. Namun, pada malam kebersamaan kami yang ke-999, dia mengatakan bahwa dia telah bertunangan dengan Bianca, seorang putri mafia dari keluarga rival. Aku menahan air mataku. Dia hanya mencengkeram daguku, mengembuskan asap rokok ke wajahku, lalu tertawa. "Kamu nggak benar-benar berpikir bisa menikah denganku, 'kan, Nora? Mari kita luruskan saja. Kamu itu cuma kuanggap sebagai alat pemuas nafsuku saja, bukan pasangan. Kamu adalah karya seni yang aku koleksi, hewan peliharaan yang aku miliki." Hewan peliharaan. Itu saja yang pernah dia inginkan dariku. Sebagai gantinya, aku pun mengambil ponsel sekali pakai dan mengirim pesan. [ Aku terima tawaranmu. Tiga hari. Keluarkan aku dari Kota Yana. ]
