One.night Stand Adalah

“Dibayar berapa lo sama bokap gue, hah?” Rayyan menyudutkan posisi Mita ke tembok. Satu tangannya mencengkeram erat kerah kemeja gadis itu sehingga membuatnya seperti tercekik. Mita kesulitan bicara. Tenggorokannya tercekat karena tekanan tangan Rayyan yang begitu kuat. Tangan kirinya berusaha melepaskan cengkeraman Rayyan sedang tangan kanannya menepuk-nepuk punggung tangan laki-laki itu. “Jawab!” sentak Rayyan. Matanya semakin berkilat merah. Memancarkan gurat amarah sekaligus sedih yang bercampur menjadi satu. “Lep—lepas, Ray. Denger penjelasan aku dulu,” pinta Mita dengan suara terbata. Gadis itu memejam seiring dengan luruhnya butiran kristal dari kedua sudut matanya. “Apa lagi? Udah jelas kalo lo cewek simpenan bokap gue! Lo udah ngerusak keluarga gue!” Rayyan semakin berapi-api. Mita mengangguk perlahan, dia pasrah. “Oke. Oke kalo menurut kamu kayak gitu. Bunuh aku kalo emang itu mau kamu,” lirihnya. Air mata semakin deras membanjiri wajah cantik Swastamita. Apakah Mita akan terus pasrah mendapat perlakuan kasar Rayyan? Akankah Mita benar-benar menyerah untuk tidak menjelaskan masalah sebenarnya pada laki-laki itu? Akankah Rayyan tega menghabisi Mita seperti yang diinginkan gadis itu?

From the time I was little, something in me was always a little off—I never listened to the whole story, only half of it. My grandmother called me a good-for-nothing who was financially burdening the family. She bought a little boy to be my younger brother and told me to take good care of him. I understood the part about buying a child, so I immediately called the police and reported her for illegal human trafficking. My father pointed at my face and cursed me for being unfilial, accusing me of cutting off his family line. I obeyed him, crept into his room while he slept that night, and used a knife to "cut off his lineage." My father screamed in agony. In the chaos, he accidentally killed me. When I opened my eyes again, I had transmigrated into the female lead of a melodramatic abuse novel. After ten years of marriage to the cruel male lead, his childhood sweetheart had just returned from abroad and was undergoing kidney surgery. He dragged me to the hospital and cruelly ordered me to donate a kidney to his precious first love. I nodded obediently, went out and bought a pig, and on the spot dug out the pig's kidney and handed it to him.

My husband, Chandler Goodwin, claims that he doesn't understand what the phrases "silent treatment" or "giving the cold shoulder" mean. Yet, in the three years we have been married, he has never once spoken to me sweetly. The first time we have a falling out, I remain proud and dignified. We end up ignoring each other for seven days straight. The seventh time we have a cold standoff, I start to panic a little. However, despite trying all sorts of methods, he doesn't back down. The 11th time it happens, I have already learned to work through my emotions myself. Chandler doesn't even need to say anything before I take the initiative to apologize first. I simply think that he's just a naturally indifferent person, that nobody can warm his stone-cold heart. Then, on the third year of our marriage, I accidentally ruin his dress shirt while ironing it. Chandler doesn't say a word, but that very night, he packs his things and moves into a hotel. On the third day of being blocked, I head to his company with a handwritten apology. While passing by his office, I spot him leaning over to shoot his angry assistant a doting smile. "I'm sorry for raising my voice at you just now and upsetting you. It's been 57 minutes since you started ignoring me. Please stop giving me the cold shoulder, alright?" I freeze on the spot, the apology letter in my hand practically burning my fingers. As it turns out, it's not that he doesn't know what the silent treatment means—it's just that I've never been the person he wants to coax.

"Five thousand dollars. I will pay you to have sex with me," I said to the handsome stranger. “Ten thousand dollars. I will pay you ten… No, fifteen,” At that moment, I just wanted to get laid. It was the only thing I could think of. “If you are still not fine with it... I will increase the money,” I whispered against his lips… ***** I caught my boyfriend of several years cheating on me with my own cousin. It already sounded bad, but ending up in bed with a hot stranger who turned out to be my ex-boyfriend's dad was even worse. Still, I'm not a woman who wallows in self-pity. I was going to use this to my advantage. I was planning to find my way into the handsome billionaire's life in order to get revenge on his cheating son, but the man beat me at my own game. Unexpectedly, he approached me first, asking me to marry him, upon our second meeting! The look in his eyes, his voice, everything about him screamed suspicious, but did his motivations matter? For now, not really. I was determined to make my ex-boyfriend pay for wasting my time all these years. I was going to make my cousin crawl at my feet and beg for my forgiveness...

Zackary and I had been married for seven years and finally had our first child. But seeing the pregnancy result, he suspected that the child was not his. Out of anger, I went to do a paternity test with him. On the day the result came out, Zackary, who was supposed to be in the hospital, appeared at my door. He was holding a photo. The photo showed that my underwear was at his friend's house. He kicked me so hard that I lost my baby. He shouted, "You bitch, you dare to cheat on me. I won't raise another man's child, you know. Go to hell!" Later he knew the truth and begged my dead child to come back.

The college student I had a passionate night with at the hotel turned out to be the intern I was supposed to mentor. On his first day at the company, he pulled me into the break room and wrapped his arms around my waist. "You have such a slender waist. That night, I never expected you to be that fervent..."

Aku adalah seorang fotografer khusus foto pribadi. Malam itu, sahabatku sejak masa kuliah memintaku untuk memotret dia dan istrinya dalam sebuah sesi foto pribadi. Awalnya, semuanya terasa normal, sampai dia mengajukan permintaan yang benar-benar aneh. "Wade, bisa nggak kamu penuhi permintaan istriku sekali ini saja?" Kalimat itu membuatku tertegun. Aku tidak tahu apakah dia serius atau hanya bercanda. Namun, sorot matanya menunjukkan bahwa dia bersungguh-sungguh. Cerita ini pun menjadi awal dari sesuatu yang tak terduga. Apakah permintaannya benar-benar sebatas profesionalisme fotografi atau ada maksud lain di baliknya?

Waking up hungover next to my arch-nemesis – the city's most notorious fuckboy? Worst. Morning. Ever. I handled the walk of shame with icy dignity, but fate had a bigger curveball: one month later, two pink lines. My baby. My rules. His involvement? Zero. My flawless plan hit a snag when morning sickness ambushed me in the office restroom. He walked in. His eyes locked onto my still-flat stomach, darkening with something dangerous. Before I could blink, he had me pinned against the cold tile wall. "Who's the father?" he growled. I met his glare with a frosty smirk. "Wouldn't you like to know? Definitely not you." Then it happened: a hot tear hit my neck. His voice cracked, raw and desperate. "Don't... don't leave me. Please." Me: ...Dude. Seriously? THIS IS YOURS!
