“Dek, tolong catat semua hadiah yang udah aku kasih ke kamu. Bonnya ada di tasku!” “Catat lagi?” “Iyalah kita harus menghemat. Pengeluaran dan pemasukan harus ada notanya. Tidak boleh kita pakai berlebihan sehari hanya boleh 70 ribu. Tidak boleh lebih.” Tak ada sahutan dari istriku malah menatap lurus dengan pandangan kosong. Aku mendekat untuk memastikan dia mendengarnya atau tidak. “Kau dengar tidak, Dek?” Baru saja kau ingin menyentuh pundaknya. Prily sudah lebih dahulu berjalan menghindar. “Hmm,” sahutnya tak acuh. Bahkan barang-barang yang kuberikan sebagai hadiah ulang tahun pernikahan kita saja dia abaikan. Bukankah dia pernah bilang menginginkan long dress dengan berwarna merah muda dengan aksen renda. Sudahlah aku repot-repot memesannya diam-diam lewat market place online. Prily justru membiarkan gamis beserta coklat yang kupesan khusus untuknya tergeletak di meja. Ck, kenapa perempuan susah sekali dimengerti. Sungguh membuatku frustrasi saja. Lebih baik bermain game dari pada terus memikirkan hal-hal yang hanya memancing emosi. ~ Di sore hari Prily biasanya akan berdiri di atas balkon. Aku sudah hafal dengan kebiasaannya. Kamar kami mengarah ke lapangan, yang biasa dipakai anak-anak kompleks untuk bermain di pagi dan sore hari. Prily tak pernah melewatkan melihat canda tawa mereka di balik jendela, barang sekali. “Mau sampai kapan berdiri di situ,” tanyaku sembari memakai kaus lengan pendek, lalu mengeringkan kepalaku dengan handuk. Prily segera mendekat lalu tangannya begitu cekatan menggosokkan handuk itu ke kepalaku. “Padahal aku punya hair dryer loh, Mas bisa pakai kalau mau.” “Kamu saja yang pakai, aku tidak perlu lah. 10 menit juga kering.” Mampukah Prily bertahan dalam pernikahannya dengan Arjuna yang serba perhitungan? atau memilih pergi saat cinta pertamanya? Dia Akbar, pria kaya raya, yang ia kira telah lama mati, justru hadir kembali.
