Riley Freeman Grown Up

Olivia was in a loveless marriage without kids. Her husband was a workaholic and unfaithful in his marriage to her. Sharon, her best friend, suggested she find a younger man to satisfy her needs while her husband does what he does. Why should he have all of the fun?! Sharon tells Olivia of an exclusive escort service specifically made for women. Olivia decides to take Sharon up on her offer and signs up for a membership with the service. Sharon asks Olivia to have some fun without commitment while dating around. Olivia wasn't familiar with dating younger men and therefore she was a bit skeptical in doing so. Eventually, she accepted a contract and wished for the best. Tony Hamilton, Sharon's son, was looking for a way to build capital for his start up business with his best friend Matt. Both Matt and Tony decide to pick up extra work in order to obtain the capital as soon as possible. Matt always had an eye for Tony's mom, Sharon, ever since he was younger. Sharon knew Matt was interested and now she saw him as a grown man. Another friend of Tony's suggested he work for an exclusive escort service to earn the capital needed to start his business quickly. Once the contract was signed, both Olivia and Tony realize - they have chosen each other! Things heat up and secrets are kept between Olivia and Tony and Matt and Sharon, until Sharon's birthday when all secrets were revealed.

Aku duduk sendirian di meja makan, tepat di hari ulang tahun pernikahan kami yang ke-7. Ponselku tiba-tiba berdering. Di layar kunci telepon, ada dua notifikasi pesan masuk yang masih belum terbaca. Pesan pertama datang dari Riki, dia bilang kalau dia harus lembur di kantor malam ini. Sementara pesan yang satu lagi datang dari nomor tidak dikenal. [Pak Riki sungguh luar biasa. Kakak sanggup mengatasinya?] Ada satu foto yang ikut dikirimkan dalam pesan tersebut. Foto itu menampilkan sepasang pria dan wanita yang sedang bercumbu mesra. Aku pun meniup lilin kue ulang tahun pernikahan kami sambil menutup mata dengan penuh kelelahan. [Ayo kita cerai.] Aku mengirimkan pesan balasan ke Riki.

Di malam valentine, aku bertemu dengan sahabat kecil tunanganku di depan sebuah bar. Dia tampak seperti habis diracuni, tak sadarkan diri. Kali ini, aku pura-pura tidak melihatnya dan langsung berbalik pergi. Di kehidupan sebelumnya, aku sama sekali tidak mengenalnya. Karena niat baik, aku menolongnya. Tapi, malah tanpa sengaja melihat ada tato nama tunanganku di tulang selangkanya. Awalnya, aku kira itu hanya salah paham. Tapi sesaat kemudian, saat aku membantu mengangkat teleponnya, aku mendengar suara tunanganku dari ponselnya. Karena marah dan cemburu, aku pun memutuskan sambungan telepon itu dan mengabaikan 99 panggilan tak terjawab darinya. Aku baru pergi setelah memastikan dia sudah baik-baik saja di hotel milik keluargaku. Siapa sangka, dia malah menjadi korban pelecehan malam itu. Karena merasa memalukan, dia memilih mengakhiri hidupnya. Setelah kebenaran terungkap, tunanganku tetap pura-pura tidak tahu apa-apa, bahkan tetap menggelar pesta pernikahan megah untukku. Namun, di hari aku mengetahui kehamilanku, dia malah mematahkan kedua kakiku dan mengurungku di rumah. Aku sangat terpuruk dan bertanya kenapa padanya. Dia malah tertawa gila-gilaan. “Kalau bukan karenamu, Luna nggak akan jadi korban pelecehan, dia juga nggak akan bunuh diri! Ini semua salahmu!” Tak kusangka, saat membuka mata lagi, aku malah kembali ke hari di mana aku bertemu sahabat kecilnya di depan bar.
