Toxic Relationship

Suamiku, seorang hakim, demi menyelamatkan cinta pertamanya yang menderita gagal ginjal, diam-diam dia memutuskan untuk mengambil salah satu ginjalku dan memberikannya padanya. Aku mencoba menjelaskan kepadanya bahwa aku sendiri mengidap gagal ginjal, dan jika satu ginjalku lagi diambil, aku pasti akan mati. Namun, suamiku justru berteriak penuh kebencian, “Lolly sudah sakit parah, tapi kau masih saja cemburu dan berebut perhatian! Apa kau nggak punya hati?!” Di bawah keputusan sepihaknya, aku dipaksa menjalani operasi transplantasi ginjal. Pada akhirnya, kondisiku semakin memburuk. Aku menghembuskan napas terakhirku di sudut rumah sakit yang sepi, sendirian, tanpa ada yang peduli.

Pada malam perayaan ulang tahun pernikahan kami yang pertama, aku tergeletak di atas karpet merah darah, hampir tak bernyawa. Suamiku, Mason, seorang bos mafia, justru merangkul teman masa kecilnya, Yani, sambil menikmati sampanye dan bercakap dengan gembira. Yani tahu aku alergi wijen. Jadi dia membuat setiap hidangan malam ini disiram saus wijen. Aku baru menggigit satu suap. Tenggorokanku langsung membengkak, paru-paruku seperti terbakar, dan ruam merah menjalar di kulitku. Di ambang sesak napas, aku mengerahkan seluruh tenagaku untuk meraih obat alergi di dalam sakuku. Tapi obat itu meleleh, lengket di telapak tanganku. Obatku ternyata telah ditukar menjadi kacang cokelat M&M! Melihat ekspresiku yang tak percaya, Yani tertawa. "Kejutan! Aku sengaja menyuruh Mason mengganti obatmu." "Kita semua tahu kamu cuma pura-pura alergi. Siapa sih yang cuma makan sedikit wijen saja langsung pingsan? Lebay banget." Aku terjatuh dari kursi, berbaring di lantai sambil susah payah bernapas. Di telingaku terdengar suara orang-orang lain yang sedang bertaruh berapa lama aku akan ‘berakting’ kali ini. "Mason… berikan obatku…" Aku memohon dengan suara parau. "Kumohon… aku benar-benar akan mati…" Dia menghela napas. "Drama banget. Kalian perempuan bisa nggak sih berhenti pakai kata ‘mati’ buat mengancam laki-laki? Apa aku belum cukup mencintaimu?" "Yani benar. Selama aku nggak peduli, kamu sendiri yang akan berhenti dengan akting murahan ini." Saat itu, hatiku terasa lebih sakit daripada tenggorokanku. Aku tak lagi menjelaskan apa pun. Dengan tangan gemetar, aku mengirim sinyal permintaan bantuan kepada keluargaku.

"Bu Libby, sebaiknya kamu tetap tanda tangan perjanjian cerai ini. Kalau nggak, aku susah mempertanggungjawabkannya pada Pak Mike." Pengacara pribadi Mike, Chairil, berdiri di depan Libby dengan ekspresi cemas. Di tangannya tergenggam satu eksemplar perjanjian cerai yang masih baru. Ini adalah ke-33 kalinya Mike meminta cerai darinya. Pertama kali, Libby memanjat ke rooftop, melompat turun, dan satu kakinya patah. Kedua kali, Libby menggunakan pisau kecil untuk mengiris arteri besar di pergelangan tangannya. Darah segar memenuhi setengah kamar mandi. Ketiga kali, Libby menenggak satu botol penuh obat tidur, lalu menjalani cuci lambung selama tiga hari di rumah sakit. .... Setiap kali, dia menggunakan kematian untuk memaksa Mike berkompromi. Namun kali ini ... dia tiba-tiba merasa lelah.
