Twist

Seberapa memalukan hukuman cambuk di Diusz? Di bawah tatapan beberapa pria kekar, rokku disingkap ke atas dengan kasar dan aku langsung dicambuk. Akan tetapi, suamiku malah bersemangat, sampai-sampai tubuh bagian bawah miliknya bereaksi. Malam itu, akhirnya aku bisa merasakan kembali kebahagiaanku yang telah lama hilang ….

Aku adalah seorang wanita yang baru saja menikah. Aku akui, gairahku memang cukup tinggi, sentuhan sedikit saja bisa langsung membuatku terangsang. Tapi, aku bersumpah, aku sama sekali tidak pernah berniat untuk tidur dengan adik iparku ….

Sekelompok tamu tak diundang tiba-tiba muncul di pemakaman kerabat. Wanita yang memimpin kelompok itu mengaku sebagai pacar suamiku, ingin menghukumku yang dianggapnya sebagai simpanan. Demi menghormati pemakaman keluarga, aku tidak ingin memperpanjang masalah. Aku hanya menasihatinya untuk menunggu sampai pemakaman selesai. Siapa sangka, dia tiba-tiba bertindak kasar dengan memerintahkan orang-orang untuk merobek semua pakaianku. Kerabat di sekitarku hanya berdiri, menonton tanpa melakukan apa-apa, menyaksikan semuanya dengan tatapan dingin. Aku bertepuk tangan, berdiri, lalu mengarahkan dia untuk berdiri di dekat guci abu. "Guci abu ibuku ini juga dibeli oleh pacarmu, harganya hampir 20 miliar!" Simpanan itu benar-benar marah, lalu berteriak sambil menghancurkan guci abu itu hingga pecah berkeping-keping. "Kalian memang keluarga yang nggak tahu malu. Jangan harap dapat satu sen pun dari pacarku bahkan setelah mati!" Dia tidak tahu bahwa yang aku maksud dengan "Ibu" adalah ibu dari suamiku, yaitu ibu mertuaku. Yang dia rusak adalah guci abu dari ibu mertuaku, sementara ini adalah pemakaman ibu mertuaku.
