Setelah ketujuh kalinya dijanjikan akan menikah tapi kembali diingkari oleh Rafli, aku akhirnya memutus semua hubungan dengannya secara sepihak. Kalau dia hadir di acara perkumpulan teman, aku tidak akan datang. Kalau dia diundang tampil dalam acara reuni sekolah, aku akan pergi lebih awal. Kalau kantorku memilih kerja sama dengan perusahaannya, aku langsung mengundurkan diri. Bahkan saat malam tahun baru, dia datang ke rumah orang tuaku untuk bersilaturahmi, aku pun berdalih keluar mengunjungi teman. Nomornya aku blokir dan akun instagramnya kuhapus dari daftar pertemanan. Intinya, aku ingin memutus hubungan tuntas dengannya. Aku tidak menghubunginya dan dia pun tidak akan bisa melihatku. Selama 30 tahun pertama hidupku, sebagian besar waktu kuhabiskan untuk mencintainya dengan sepenuh hati, merawat dan memperhatikannya tanpa pamrih. Sampai akhirnya, setelah yang ketujuh kalinya dia ingkar janji untuk menikahiku, aku benar-benar sadar. Aku tidak mau hidup seperti ini lagi. Meski harus menjalani hidup sendirian, tetap saja lebih tenang daripada terus-menerus menunggu di rumah kosong yang tak pernah dia datangi!

Gagal ginjal stadium akhir. Ginjal yang paling cocok untukku… justru diberikan suamiku kepada adikku. Aku menolak saran dokter untuk terus menunggu donor baru dan memilih keluar dari rumah sakit lebih awal. Hati yang telah lama membeku, tak lagi punya alasan untuk bertahan. Seluruh harta yang kukumpulkan selama bertahun-tahun, kuserahkan kepada adik. Akhirnya, senyum orang tuaku pun kudapatkan. Suamiku merawat adikku siang dan malam tanpa istirahat. Aku tak marah, malah mengingatkannya untuk lebih hati-hati dan teliti. Bahkan ketika anakku ingin memanggil adikku sebagai “ibu”, aku pun tersenyum dan menyetujui. Semuanya sudah berjalan sesuai keinginan mereka. Lalu… mengapa sekarang mereka menyesal?

Di malam peringatan sembilan tahun pernikahan kami, suamiku yang bernama Felix Tosa, pria yang di siang hari menguasai keluarga mafia dan di malam hari menguasai hatiku, tidak memberiku setangkai mawar pun. Dia malah memberikannya pada Celine, asisten pribadinya. Di bawah lampu gantung tempat kami pernah berdansa saat baru menikah, dia menoleh padaku dengan pesona dingin yang dulu pernah membisikkan kata cinta di telingaku. “Dia hamil,” katanya, seolah itu sudah cukup sebagai penjelasan. “Dan dia sangat pilih-pilih soal makanan. Mulai sekarang, kamu yang harus menyiapkan makanan tiga kali sehari untuknya, nggak boleh ada menu yang berulang.” “Dia juga sensitif, nggak suka tidur sendirian. Jadi, kamu harus pindah ke kamar tamu.” Ruangan itu sunyi senyap. Aku tidak berteriak, tidak juga menangis. Aku hanya mengambil koper yang sudah kubereskan, lalu berjalan menuju pintu. Kepala pelayan mencoba menahanku, tapi Felix bahkan tak berkedip sedikit pun. “Dia pasti balik lagi,” katanya malas, sambil menggoyangkan gelas anggur. “Dalam waktu tiga hari, dia akan menangis dan memohon padaku.” Tamu-tamu pun tertawa terbahak-bahak. Mereka bertaruh satu juta dolar di depan mataku. Bertaruh bahwa aku bahkan tak akan sanggup melewati malam ini dan akan kembali memohon seperti anjing jalanan yang kehilangan harga diri, memohon agar Felix membiarkanku masuk ke rumah. Namun, mereka tidak tahu bahwa aku sudah menerima lambang keluarga dari ayah kandungku yang sebenarnya dan tiket pesawat pun sudah kupesan. Kali ini, aku benar-benar akan pergi.

Augustine Knight is the man all mothers wish for their daughter! He’s nice, he’s rich, he’s beyond beautiful, and has the quality we’ve all been looking for- painfully loyal! Yeah okay maybe he’s a bit arrogant but you can hardly see that trait whenever he’s with his family and close friends because yes, you got it right, he’s a family man and a very good friend too! See, what a catch. Phew. The relationship he had with Evie, is something we all pray for our daughters to have. If you excuse the big misunderstanding, of course. Because that would make you call him a fucking pedophile. With P at the front and right in the middle. PEDO-PHILE. You can’t exactly blame the man when he asked his newly-married wife to give him back four years of his life, or forced her to cash her promise about their three (future) children. From being the lucky girlfriend of a billionaire she upped her status to ‘insanely-lucky wife of a billionaire’, but within a month it changed into being his worthless SugarBabyWife. *** Dig in if you feel like reading something that would make you mad, sad, or both. Don’t hesitate if you’re a fan of toxic relationship because I promise you, this, is the definition of ttttoxicccity. I’m the fucking mayor of this city if you’ve read Gay Sugar Daddy :)
