Twist Meaning

Suatu hari, aku menerima telepon dari seorang pengembang properti. Orang itu dengan sopan menasihatiku bahwa meskipun aku sudah menikah, aku tidak perlu sampai membuat keributan sepanjang malam. Banyak tetangga yang mengeluh dan merekalah yang dipusingkan karena berada di antara kedua belah pihak. Aku menjawab dengan tenang. "Kalian pasti salah paham, aku saja nggak punya pacar, mana mungkin aku sudah menikah?" Melihatku masih tidak mau mengaku, pihak pengembang properti mengirimkan video pengawas lingkungan perumahan kepadaku. Dalam video tersebut, lorong bangunan dihiasi dengan lampu dan tamu datang tanpa henti. Beberapa orang mengiringi pengantin perempuan masuk ke dalam rumah baru. Pengantin laki-lakinya adalah mantan pacarku, yang sudah putus denganku dua setengah tahun yang lalu.

Pacarku selalu menghindar jika disuruh bertemu dengan orang tuaku. Namun, dia malah diam-diam menyamar sebagai calon istri mantannya dan bertemu dengan semua kerabat mantannya. Ironisnya, tempat pertemuan mereka adalah di rumah pernikahan yang kupersiapkan untuk kami. Yang tidak dia sadari, aku ternyata adalah sepupu jauh dari mantan pacarnya. Pacarku berpura-pura tidak mengenaliku. Dia merangkul mantannya dengan mesra sambil berkata, "Rumah ini dibeli suamiku dengan tunai." Semua kerabat memuji mereka sebagai pasangan yang harmonis. Takut rahasianya terbongkar, pacarku mendekatiku dan memberikan peringatan, "Aku cuma bantu teman supaya dia nggak didesak nikah. Kalau kamu berani mengacaukan ini, kita putus." Dengan senyuman sinis, aku memberinya ucapan selamat yang tulus, "Kalau ternyata aku dan sepupuku punya selera yang sama soal rumah dan wanita, aku sudah persiapkan beberapa perlengkapan pernikahan yang pasti disukai sepupuku. Akan kuhadiahkan untuk kalian." Akhirnya, pacarku terlihat panik.

Pekerja magang baru itu selalu memikirkan perusahaan. Demi menghemat biaya, dia secara diam-diam menukar lapis legit seharga 20 juta yang akan kukirimkan pada klien dengan lapis legit abal-abal seharga 19.800 dengan gratis ongkir yang dibelinya di Shopee. Demi menghemat listrik, pekerja magang itu mematikan sakelar listrik saat kami sedang bekerja lembur untuk mengejar target. Dia juga mengusulkan pada bos agar kami tidak libur pada hari kemerdekaan. Pekerja magang itu berkata dengan nada tegas, "Perusahaan nggak membayar orang-orang pemalas. Kurasa hari kemerdekaan adalah saat yang terbaik untuk meningkatkan kinerja.
