When I was seven years old, a handsome man Mom brought home gave me a box of mangoes. That day, Dad watched me happily eating the mangoes as he signed his name on the divorce agreement. Then, he jumped to his death. From that day on, mangoes became a lifelong nightmare for me. So, on our wedding day, I told my wife, Irene Johnson, "If you ever want a divorce, just give me a mango." She held me without saying a word. From that moment on, mangoes became forbidden for her as well. … On the fifth Christmas Eve after we got married, Irene's childhood sweetheart, Steven Carter, placed a mango on her desk. That same day, she announced that she was cutting ties with him and fired him from the company. That day, I felt that she was the woman destined for me. ... Six months later, I return from overseas after closing a billion-dollar deal. At the celebration dinner, Irene hands me a drink. After I drink half of it, Steven, the man who was kicked out of the company, stands behind me and grins. "Is the mango juice good?" he asks. I look at Irene in disbelief, but she is holding back a laugh. "Don't be mad. Steve insisted I play a joke on you. I didn't give you a mango, just a bottle of its juice. "But I think Steve is right. There's something wrong with you for not eating mangoes. Look at how much you enjoyed it just now!" she says. I keep a cold expression, raise my hand, and splash the remaining mango juice onto her face. Then, I turn and walk away. Some things are never a joke. Mangoes aren't, and neither is my decision to divorce.

Aku sedang jual furnitur bekas di platform seken, tiba-tiba ada seorang perempuan kirim pesan untuk menawar harga, [Kak, harganya boleh agak kurang?] [Aku belum lulus kuliah, baru saja pindah dari asrama gara-gara berantem dengan teman sekamar. Pacarku yang mencarikan kontrakan untukku.] [Meskipun dia sangat kaya, bahkan bilang mau menikahiku setelah lulus, aku tetap nggak mau terlalu membebani dia.] [Boleh kurang empat puluh ribu, nggak? Nanti aku ambil sendiri ke sana!] Waktu masih kuliah dan pacaran dengan Steve, aku juga pernah rela mengayun sepeda umum selama dua jam hanya demi hemat sepuluh ribu. Meskipun sekarang aku hanya karyawan kantoran biasa, kondisiku lebih baik sedikit dibanding anak kuliah. Akhirnya, aku pun luluh dan menyetujuinya. Malam itu, dua orang muncul di depan gerbang komplek perumahanku. Si Perempuan dengan bangga berkata, “Aku hebat, ‘kan? Hanya keluar uang nggak sampai dua ratus ribu, tapi sudah dapat mesin cuci yang kondisinya masih 90% baru!” Si pria menyahut dengan nada memanjakan, “Iya… sayangku memang paling hebat.” “Tapi aku cari uang memang untuk membiayaimu, kamu nggak perlu sehemat itu.” “Suamimu ini direktur Grup Rosel, masa membiayai kamu saja nggak mampu? Sekali ini saja ya, lain kali jangan begini lagi.” Pria itu mendongak sambil tersenyum. Begitu mata kami bertemu, aku langsung mematung di tempat. Dia adalah Steve, pacarku yang pamitnya mau dinas keluar kota selama tiga bulan demi mendapat uang saku perjalanan dinas tiga kali lipat.

"Stop… please stop… There are too many of you. You'll break me." On the bus back to the village, three rugged men from my hometown spread my legs apart and tore a hole right through the middle of my stockings. Steve Axwell, who lived opposite, said lecherously.
