Orang Asing Dalam Cermin

Aku menyuntikkan obat pemicu ovulasi seratus kali untuknya dan akhirnya mengandung anaknya. Selama lima tahun, seluruh harapanku hanya tertumpah pada suntikan itu, hanya demi melahirkan seorang anak untuk Yosef. Yosef adalah pemimpin mafia, seorang pria yang tenang dan terkendali, juga sangat perhatian. Aku ingin melahirkan seorang anak untuk pria seperti itu. Semua orang iri pada cinta kami. Namun, ketika aku menyerahkan hasil pemeriksaan, perawat tiba-tiba mendongak. Suaranya ragu-ragu saat bertanya, "Maaf ... apa hubunganmu dengan Pak Yosef? Dalam sistem sudah ada catatan pemeriksaan kehamilan istrinya." Aku tertegun. Nama yang tampil di layar adalah Zoey. Itu adalah istri dari kakak Yosef yang sudah meninggal. Pada kolom pasangan, tertulis nama Yosef. Saat itu, bahkan bernapas pun terasa seperti sebuah celaan. Aku tidak menangis, juga tidak bertanya. Aku hanya pelan-pelan melepaskan cincin pernikahan dan memasukkannya ke tas. Aku menekan nomor yang kusimpan di dasar laci. Suara yang keluar sangat tenang sampai membuatku sendiri terkejut. "Aku setuju. Jemput aku tiga hari lagi." Kepergianku bukan untuk membalas dendam, tetapi karena akhirnya aku mengerti bahwa rasa sakit baru bisa berhenti saat benar-benar melepaskan. Tiga hari kemudian, Yosef pulang ke kamar tidur yang kosong. Di meja samping ranjang, tergeletak cincin itu, sementara di sebelahnya adalah surat perjanjian cerai yang sudah berlaku serta pemberitahuan kehamilanku. Malam itu, dia duduk di lantai, berulang kali mengusap cincin pernikahan itu. Penyesalan datang seperti gelombang pasang, menenggelamkan semua hal yang dulu dia kira tak akan pernah runtuh. Barulah dia menyadari bahwa cinta yang terdalam pun bisa menghancurkan seseorang.

********* “Did you really come all the way here to tell me you were with another woman you slept with and impregnated?” “What?” Travis is the one who speaks, his voice echoing his shock as he looks from me to Kian. Kian’s usual blank look remains as if he is unaffected by my words and the pain he has caused me. “Let’s not do this here, Leslie. You know I can’t just leave her.” I scoff. “I never stopped you. You know what? You should have never come here. You should have stayed with her since that is where your loyalties lie now and I am no longer in the picture.” Kian frowns, moving closer and intimidating me just a little with his height and muscular frame, “What does that mean? You are my wife.” “Ex-wife,” I say the words without even thinking. I didn’t think any of this through but I don’t care because my entire being seems to agree that this is what’s best for me, “I want a divorce, Kian.” His eyes grow wide, unable to contain the shock at my words and I am proud of myself that I finally got a reaction that isn’t anger or coldness from him. “Both the divorce papers and my resignation will find their way to you soon.” I add before he can get over his shock and I don’t wait for him to reply as I turn to an equally stunned Travis. “Take me home, Travis.”
