Saat suamiku sedang ikut acara berkemah dari kantor, asisten perempuannya tiba-tiba mengunggah sebuah postingan: "Pembagian tenda lewat undian, siapa sangka aku malah setenda dengan bosku yang tampan!" Dalam foto itu, dia sedang berswafoto menghadap kamera, sementara di belakangnya ada seorang pria yang sedang melepas bajunya— dan itu adalah suamiku. Ada yang berkomentar: "Hati-hati ya, cowok dan cewek berduaan di satu tenda, bisa berbahaya ...." Asisten itu langsung membalas dengan emoji tertawa jahil sambil menulis: "Memang aku suka yang menantang." Aku sempat memberikan 'like', tetapi tidak lama kemudian, postingan itu dihapus. Tak lama, suamiku menelepon lewat panggilan video. Di depan asisten perempuan yang sedang menangis dan beberapa rekan kerja lainnya, dia langsung marah padaku: "Kamu kok suka lebay sih? Ini 'kan cuma permainan sederhana, nggak bisa santai saja?" Melihat dia memeluk asisten itu sambil menenangkannya dengan lembut, aku pun menutup telepon tanpa berkata apa-apa lagi.

Sudah tiga jam aku menunggu Eldino Marven, pacarku. Pria yang seharusnya jadi tokoh utama itu mendadak ke rumah sakit karena ditelepon oleh gadis kesayangannya. Pergelangan kaki gadis kesayangannya itu terkilir, tetapi dia malah sengaja merekam video ciumannya dengan Eldino. Saking dalamnya cinta mereka, Eldino yang kedua kakinya cacat itu ternyata sanggup bangkit berdiri dan bahkan mendorong Adena Horian ke pintu. "Eldino, kok kamu nggak kasih tahu Arissa kalau kakimu sudah sembuh?" Eldino pun menjawab. "Kalau dia tahu, dia pasti akan ribut memintaku menikahinya." "Memangnya Arissa itu siapa sih? Dia itu cuma pengasuh gratis! Apa dia pantas menikah denganku?" Eldino dan Adena berciuman dengan penuh gairah. Adena bahkan mengenakan gaun pengantin rancanganku dan melirik kamera dengan provokatif. Video pun berakhir dengan bunyi air yang menjurus. Ternyata selama ini Eldino membohongiku. Aku langsung membuang kue yang kubuat untuk pria itu ke tempat sampah. Lalu, aku menundukkan kepala dan mengirim pesan kepada ibuku. "Halo, Bu, aku mau ikut kencan buta itu."
