"Bunuh aku," lirihnya bersama bulir-bulir kepahitan yang membasahi wajahnya."Tidak sekarang, aku masih ingin bermain-main denganmu," bisik Rigel di telinga Binar dengan posisi menunduk.

Namun, bukannya berhenti, Rigel semakin bersemangat mengukir bercak merah di tubuh wanita itu.***"Argh! Ayah ... tolong aku! Sakit!" Pekikan memilukan itu terdengar seiring tetes darah yang mengucur deras dari jemari mungil Leya."Berhenti memanggilku ayah!

Rasanya, sakit sekali!Haruskah Binar bertahan dan memaafkan Rigel di saat terlampau banyak luka yang menganga di hati dan tubuhnya?
