Sampai suatu hari, saat aku sedang merapikan rak buku, tanpa sengaja aku menjatuhkan sebuah berkas rahasia yang tersembunyi di bagian terdalam rak milik Yohan. Halaman pertama adalah data Jessica dan di atasnya, tertulis tulisan tangan Yohan dengan tinta merah tebal [Terpenting, lindungi Jessica.] Lalu di bawahnya, terdapat laporan misi yang sangat aku kenali. Misi yang sangat kutakuti. Malam itu, ada yang mencoba membunuhku. Begitu bantuan tiba, aku hampir mati kehabisan darah. Saat sadar di rumah sakit, aku baru tahu bahwa janin kecil di rahimku sudah tiada. Aku menangis sejadi-jadinya di pelukan Yohan, aku sangat hancur. Tapi aku tidak memberitahunya tentang kehilangan itu, aku tidak ingin membuatnya lebih khawatir lagi. Baru sekarang aku mengerti bahwa malam itu, Jessica juga mendapat percobaan pembunuhan. Perintah yang dikeluarkan Yohan adalah, "Selamatkan Jessica terlebih dulu." Air mataku menetes di atas kertas itu, membuat tulisan merahnya memudar. "Baiklah." Aku berbisik di tengah kesunyian, suaraku serak tapi tegas. "Kalau pernikahan kita hanyalah kebohongan yang kamu rancang dengan cermat, maka aku akan menghilang dari duniamu … untuk selamanya."
