Toxic Romance

Di hari ulang tahunku yang ke-22, pamanku menemukan buku diari milikku. Setelah tahu bahwa diam-diam aku mencintainya, ia mengirimku ke luar negeri, menghabiskan jutaan untuk merancang pernikahan mewah, lalu menikahi cinta pertamanya.

Sepuluh tahun lalu, demi menyelamatkan Marcus, aku kehilangan penglihatanku. Sepuluh tahun kemudian, Marcus malah menempatkan wanita simpanannya di vila yang sama denganku. Setiap malam, dia berpura-pura menghiburku hingga tertidur di paruh malam pertama, lalu menghabiskan paruh malam berikutnya bersama wanita itu. Bahkan anakku diam-diam memanggil wanita itu "Mama". Mereka tidak tahu, aku sudah mendapatkan kembali penglihatanku dan sedang merencanakan untuk meninggalkan mereka.

Aku menikah dengan pria yang sama sebanyak tujuh kali. Pria itu juga bercerai denganku tujuh kali, semuanya demi wanita yang sama. Hanya agar ia bisa menghabiskan liburan dengan kekasih lamanya tanpa terikat, dan agar kekasih lamanya tak terganggu oleh gosip. Saat perceraian pertama, aku mencoba melukai pergelangan tanganku untuk memaksa dia tetap bersamaku, dan dibawa ke rumah sakit dengan ambulans. Tapi dia tak datang bahkan untuk sekadar menatapku sekalipun. Saat perceraian kedua, aku merendahkan diri dan melamar sebagai asistennya di perusahaannya, hanya untuk bisa menatapnya sekali lagi. Saat perceraian keenam, aku sudah belajar untuk mengemasi barang-barang sendiri dan meninggalkan rumah pernikahan kami tanpa ribut. Diriku yang histeris, aku yang harus menahan diri berulang kali, kepasrahan dan kompromiku hingga berakhir pada perasaanku yang mati... semua itu hanya menghasilkan satu hal: dia kembali menikahiku tepat waktu, lagi dan lagi... Mengulang semua trik lamanya. Hingga kali ini, setelah mendengar kabar bahwa kekasih lamanya akan kembali ke negeri ini, aku mengulurkan surat perjanjian cerai di hadapannya dengan tanganku sendiri. Dia, seperti biasanya, mencoba menetapkan waktu untuk menikahiku lagi. Tapi dia tidak tahu bahwa kali ini, aku akan benar-benar pergi untuk selamanya.

Putra bungsuku yang berusia tujuh tahun digigit ular. Aku segera melarikannya ke rumah sakit tempat putra sulungku bekerja. Tak disangka, pacar anakku mengira aku adalah selingkuhan anakku. Dia tidak hanya menghalangi pengobatan anak bungsuku, tapi juga menampar wajahku. "Aku dan pacarku adalah pasangan sempurna, tapi kamu malah datang menantangku membawa anak harammu ini." Aku ditendang dan dipukuli. Dada dan kecantikanku dirusak. Dia mengancam, "Pelacur sepertimu baru bisa insaf kalau mulut bawahmu disegel langsung." Aku dibawa ke ruang gawat darurat dalam keadaan mengenaskan, dan dokter bedah yang menanganiku ternyata adalah putra sulungku. Tangannya gemetaran hebat memegangi pisau bedah dan wajahnya pucat pasi. "Bu, siapa yang menyiksamu seperti ini?"

Setelah menikah selama tiga tahun, aku selalu berpikir mempunyai keluarga yang bahagia. Aku memiliki istri yang lembut dan perhatian, bahkan juga seorang putra yang cerdas dan imut. Pada suatu hari, aku pulang kerja lebih awal dari biasanya. Sesampainya di rumah, istriku yang sangat lelah malah tertidur di tepi ranjang bayi. Melihat adegan itu, aku merasa kasihan pada istriku. Oleh karena itu, aku langsung berjalan menghampirinya dan hendak memeluknya ke kamar tidur. Namun, layar ponsel istriku tiba-tiba menyala. [Elina, anak kita sudah tidur belum?]
