Light Skin Dabi

Tak adil rasanya jika sama-sama menantu tapi di beda-bedakan. Itu yang Rasti rasakan selama menjadi menantu dikeluarga ini. Ada dua menantu di sini. Rasti dan Lika. Rasti menantu dari keluarga yang 'kere' kata ibu mertuanya, Rasti diperlakukan sesuka hatinya. Memang ibu mertua sangat menampakkan ketidak sukaannya didepan Rasti. Tapi tidak didepan anak lanangnya. Karena anaknya sangat mencintai Rasti apa adanya. Berbeda dengan Lika, Lika anak dari keluarga berada. Dia juga mempunyai gelar dan bekerja sebagai Bidan di puskesmas setempat. Ibu mertua selalu manyanjungnya. Tidak pernah menyuruhnya dan selalu membanggakan manantu kesayangannya di depan teman-temannya. Ibarat secangkir kopi, Rasti ini menjadi gula. Selalu kopinya yang dipuji enak. Tanpa ada yang memikirkan keberadaan gula yang membuat rasa kopi itu menjadi nikmat. Ya, seperti diriku. Menantu Kaya selalu dipuja, menantu miskin selalu dihina.

“Ya, mencintai itu memang butuh ketulusan, kesabaran, juga pengorbanan,” jerit batin Raditya Pambudi. “Tapi, ketulusan, kesabaran, serta pengorbanan seperti apa lagi yang harus aku persembahkan kepada seorang istri yang tidak memberikan hal yang sama terhadap diriku, suaminya? Memang, aku nyaris tak pernah diperlakukan selayaknya seorang suami oleh wanita yang aku nikahi dan cintai itu. Di kala aku berusaha membahagiakannya dengan segenap jiwa dan ikhtiarku, dia malah dengan tanpa merasa berdosa justru menganggapku bukan siapa-siapa dalam kehidupannya. Walau berat dan seolah hidup dalam neraka, tapi aku mencoba bertahan, bersabar, dan tanpa lelah berdoa, semoga kelak ia menjadi istri terbaik dan calon bidadari syurga bagi aku dan anak-anaknya kelak, seperti yang kuimpi-impikan dahulu.” ***

Kerjaannya cuma serabutan, masa iya ada temen yang lihat suamiku sedang ada di ruang nasabah prioritas. Terus ngapain kira-kira dia di sana?

Pada hari peringatan lima tahun kebersamaan kami, pacarku Luis Loren memberiku sebuah gelang yang harganya tidak sampai dua ratus ribu. Malam itu juga, dia membelikan sebuah kapal pesiar seharga 20 miliar untuk cinta pertamanya, Paula Santoso. Aku menolak gelang itu. Dia malah mengataiku tidak pengertian. "Aku memberikan hadiah pada Paula demi saham perusahaan, bukan karena aku masih memiliki perasaan padanya." "Kamu hanyalah orang miskin, aku sudah berjanji akan menikahimu, memangnya masih nggak cukup? Padahal ini adalah ujian terakhir untukmu, Ziva, kamu gagal." Aku mengakhiri hubungan kami. Dia langsung melamar Paula. Lima tahun kemudian, kami bertemu di sebuah hotel mewah, tepatnya tempat diadakan Konferensi Bisnis. Perusahaannya akan segera menjadi pemimpin industri, dia masuk dengan menggandeng Paula. Ketika dia melihatku, aku sedang berdiri di kolam air mancur dengan pakaian yang berantakan. "Ziva." Dia berkata dengan nada sinis, "Dulu, kamu menolakku. Kamu nggak menyangka setelah berpisah denganku, hidupmu akan lebih buruk dari pengemis, 'kan?" "Jangan kira karena kamu merekayasa pertemuan ini dan menunjukkan betapa menderitanya hidupmu, aku akan mengasihanimu dan membawamu pergi." Aku mengabaikannya. Berlian biru kesayangan putraku yang ayahnya berikan sebagai hadiah ulang tahun pertama tidak sengaja jatuh ke dalam air mancur. Putraku menangis tersedu-sedu, aku harus segera menemukan berlian biru itu.

My mate, Luther Evans, had spent 20 thousand dollars on two first-class tickets for the Moonlight Express to Vespera Coast. Just as we were about to board, he pulled me aside and gave my seat to my foster sister, Zoey Turner. He explained, "There's only one empty seat left on the train, and Zoey's son has never seen the ocean before. This is the perfect chance. Kids can't be separated from their mothers, so I'll take them first and get them settled, then come back for you." I nodded and stepped off the train, watching it disappear into the distance. Once they reached the beach, a friend asked Luther why I hadn't come along. He was busy inflating a pool float for Zoey, answering casually without looking up. "The Moonlight Express runs every three days. Avery Smith can just buy her own ticket and come later. I'll pick up some gifts to make it up to her. She's really understanding and won't stay mad at me." A bitter smile tugged at the corners of my mouth. The whole family had always favored Zoey, and now even my own mate was no different. Since nobody wanted to see me anyway, I decided I would leave in three days.
