Level Up

As the Mafia principessa, my dad banned men from my life growing up for my protection. However, when I turned twenty, my mom suddenly started arranging blind dates for me. “Please. Just go meet him.” “Mom, I’m only twenty. Am I supposed to get married already?” I didn’t understand her urgency. “I know, I know, but—” After hesitating for a long time, I finally said what was really bothering me. “The guy you introduced is almost fifty. He’s old enough to be my dad!” There was a pause on the other end of the line. Then my mom spoke carefully. “Well, actually… it’s possible he really is your father. I was young and foolish back then. More daddies, more options, right?” My silence must have been deafening because she hurried to backtrack. “Okay, okay. He is a little older, but he’s seriously handsome! A daddy among daddies. Incubus‑level hot!”

Hari itu adalah hari ulang tahunku. Kupikir, Andre akan menemaniku ke pantai untuk menonton kembang api. Tapi, pacarku itu malah membawa wanita lain dan anak wanita itu. "Keisya repot bawa anak, tolong pengertian." "Dia nggak tahu jalan dan bawa barang banyak, jadi aku mau antar mereka ke hotel duluan." Dia mengatakannya dengan enteng, seolah sedang menjelaskan masalah sepele. Kelembutan itulah yang membuat kemarahanku tampak berlebihan dan tanpa alasan. Dia membantu mereka masuk ke dalam mobil dan memasangkan sabuk pengaman untuk anak itu. Lalu dia tersenyum dan berkata kepadaku, "Aku nggak lama pasti balik lagi, jangan mikir macam-macam." Aku berdiri di pinggir jalan, menyaksikan mereka pergi seakan-akan mereka satu keluarga sempurna. Malam tiba. Angin laut terasa sangat dingin hingga menusuk tulang. Aku masih menunggu, sampai aku melihat video di akun Keisya. Andre menggendong anak Keisya sambil menonton pertunjukan kembang api di pantai. Pertunjukan itu adalah kejutan yang aku rencanakan sendiri untuk ulang tahunku. Isi komentar di bawahnya senada.

Tapi, hati yang terlalu lama diabaikan pasti akan menjadi dingin. Ombak menghantam pantai. Menghancurkan ilusi terakhirku. Kali ini, aku tidak akan menunggunya kembali.
