Chapter 1
"Selamat, Bu Langley, Anda hamil!" dokter itu memberi tahu Patricia Watson.
Dengan penuh kegembiraan, Patricia Watson bergegas pulang dengan laporan tes kehamilan, ingin segera berbagi kabar baik itu dengan Martin Langley.
"Martin, aku..." katanya dengan semangat.
"Patricia, kita cerai saja!" Martin berkata di waktu yang sama.
Kegembiraannya meredup, Patricia menelan kembali kata "hamil" yang hendak diucapkannya.
"Mengapa?" tanyanya dengan suara bergetar, berusaha sekuat tenaga menyembunyikan rasa sakitnya.
Begitu tiba-tiba, dan dia butuh penjelasan.
Martin menekan bibir tipisnya, matanya dingin.
"Debbie kembali." Jawabannya membuat hati Patricia dingin.
Wajahnya pucat dan dia menggigit bibir bawahnya dengan keras, hampir tak mampu berdiri.
Debbie, cinta sejati Martin yang menghilang selama dua tahun, telah kembali.
Martin mengeluarkan cek dan meletakkannya di meja, berkata, "Ini 15 juta dolar. Sebagian untuk penyelesaian perceraianmu, dan sebagian lagi sebagai pembayaran untuk mendonorkan sumsum tulangmu."
Patricia langsung waspada dan secara naluriah bertanya, "Apa maksudmu?"
"Debbie menderita anemia aplastik dan butuh transplantasi sumsum tulang secepatnya. Kamu cocok 90%. Sebagai saudara, kamu harus menyelamatkannya." Martin tidak memberi Patricia ruang untuk bernegosiasi. Dia memberi perintah, bukan mendiskusikannya.
Patricia membeku, merasa hancur hati.
Mereka telah menikah selama dua tahun. Tapi sekarang, demi menyelamatkan Debbie, yang pernah meninggalkannya, dia menceraikan Patricia dan bahkan memaksanya mendonorkan sumsum tulangnya!
"Mendonorkan sumsum tulangku untuk Debbie? Tidak akan pernah! Ibunya menghancurkan pernikahan orang tuaku. Ibuku tidak akan menderita depresi dan bunuh diri jika bukan karena ibunya. Dan sekarang kamu mengharapkan aku menyelamatkannya? Tidak akan terjadi!" Patricia menggertakkan giginya, kebencian membanjiri hatinya saat dia mengingat masa lalu.
"Jika kamu masih punya cinta dari pernikahan dua tahun kita, jangan paksa aku. Atau aku tidak akan pernah memaafkanmu!"
Hati Martin terenyuh karena kata-katanya. Tapi Patricia tidak menyadarinya. Dia langsung mengambil pena dan dengan cepat menandatangani namanya di perjanjian perceraian.
"Aku akan pindah. Mulai sekarang, kita hanya dua orang asing." Dengan itu, Patricia meletakkan pena, siap pergi.
Begitu dia berbalik, dia bertabrakan dengan Debbie yang baru saja masuk ke ruangan.
Debbie mengenakan gaun putih, rambut panjangnya terurai di bahunya, wajahnya pucat.
"Patricia, aku tahu kamu membenci ibuku, tapi kamu tidak tahu seluruh ceritanya! Ibuku berkencan dengan Ayah sebelum ibumu muncul. Tapi Kakek memisahkan mereka dan memaksa Ayah menikahi ibumu..." dia menjelaskan.
Sebelum dia bisa menyelesaikan kata-katanya, Patricia memotongnya.
"Cukup! Jika Ayah benar-benar mencintai ibumu, mengapa dia menikahi ibuku? Karena dia memilih ibuku, dia harus setia. Dan ibumu tidak seharusnya datang untuk menghancurkan keluargaku.
"Debbie, ibumu mencuri suami ibuku, dan sekarang kamu mengincar suamiku! Apa, ini tradisi keluarga untuk menjadi wanita ketiga?" Patricia menatap Debbie dengan ejekan.
"Patricia, bagaimana bisa kamu mengatakan itu? Martin adalah tunanganku. Kamu yang mencurinya dariku, dan sekarang kamu menuduhku?" Debbie menunjukkan wajah sedih dan melirik Martin.
Patricia segera membalas, "Karena dia tunanganmu, mengapa kamu tiba-tiba menghilang sehari sebelum pernikahan? Kamu lari karena kecacatannya, kan?
"Jika kamu tetap tinggal, aku tidak akan menikah dengannya. Sekarang, kakinya sudah sembuh, jadi kamu ingin dia kembali. Debbie, apa kamu tidak punya malu?"
"Patricia, tidak seperti itu," Debbie terisak, menghapus air matanya.
Patricia menatapnya dengan pandangan meremehkan dan mendengus, "Cukup. Aku bukan Martin. Air matamu tidak akan berhasil padaku! Kalau kamu mau dia, dia milikmu. Tapi sumsum tulangku? Tidak pernah!"
Dengan itu, dia mendorong Debbie ke samping dan meninggalkan ruang kerja tanpa menoleh ke belakang.
Melihat Patricia pergi, Martin merasakan sakit yang tak terjelaskan di hatinya.
Namun kemudian, dia tertawa mengejek dirinya sendiri, berpikir, 'Dia hanya wanita yang sia-sia dan egois. Bagaimana mungkin aku punya perasaan padanya? Pasti ini hanya ilusi. Lagipula, kami sudah menikah selama dua tahun.'
Melihat punggung Patricia, Debbie mengepalkan tinjunya diam-diam. Lalu, dia menunjukkan wajah sedih kepada Martin, berkata dengan lembut, "Martin, Patricia tidak setuju. Apa yang harus aku lakukan?"
Martin menjawab dengan tenang, "Aku akan minta Alan terus mencari donor yang cocok untukmu."
Itu mengisyaratkan bahwa dia membiarkan Patricia pergi.
"Tapi..." Debbie merasa kesal.
Dia akhirnya menemukan donor yang sempurna untuk transplantasi sumsum tulangnya. Dia tidak mau menyerah begitu saja!
Merasa sedikit kesal, Martin berkata dingin, "Aku tidak suka memaksa orang."
Merasakan sikap tegasnya, Debbie tidak berani bicara lebih banyak. Dia menundukkan kepalanya, secercah niat jahat melintas di matanya.
'Tidak mungkin menyerah! Apa pun yang terjadi, aku akan mendapatkan sumsum tulangnya,' pikirnya dalam hati.
Patricia keluar dari kamar tidur dengan koper di tangannya. Melihat pintu ruang kerja yang tertutup, dia merasa sedih dan tanpa sadar menyentuh perutnya yang datar.
Dia berkata dalam hati, 'Selamat tinggal, Martin. Aku telah mencintaimu selama sepuluh tahun. Tapi mulai sekarang, aku hanya akan bersama bayiku.'
Dia menarik napas dalam-dalam, menahan air matanya, dan meninggalkan tempat yang telah dia tinggali selama dua tahun. Kemudian, dia mengemudi menuju apartemen kecil yang ditinggalkan ibunya sebelum meninggal.
Saat Patricia mengeluarkan barang-barangnya dari bagasi, seseorang tiba-tiba menutup mulut dan hidungnya dari belakang.
Segera, bau menyengat memenuhi hidungnya.
Patricia mencoba melawan tetapi merasa lemah. Setelah perlawanan singkat, tubuhnya menjadi lemas dan dia pingsan.
Ketika dia sadar kembali, rasa sakit yang luar biasa membuatnya mengerang kesakitan.
Dia berusaha keras membuka matanya tetapi gagal. Dia hanya bisa mencium bau kuat disinfektan dan samar-samar mendengar percakapan.
"Tuan Langley, Nyonya Langley sedang hamil. Jika kita melanjutkan transplantasi sumsum tulang, bayinya mungkin akan mati. Anda yakin ingin melakukannya?" suara dokter pria terdengar.
"Dia hamil?" Martin berseru tak percaya.
Patricia, seolah-olah menggenggam tali penyelamat, berusaha keras untuk memberitahu Martin bahwa dia hamil dengan anaknya. Dia berpikir Martin tidak akan mempertaruhkan nyawa bayinya untuk menyelamatkan Debbie!
Tapi tidak peduli seberapa keras dia berusaha, dia tidak bisa mengeluarkan suara.
"Ya, seharusnya sekitar sebulan," jawab dokter.
Patricia berpikir bahwa tidak peduli seberapa tega Martin, tidak peduli seberapa tidak sukanya dia pada Patricia, dia akan mengampuninya demi anak mereka.
Tapi dia salah.
"Debbie tidak bisa menunggu lebih lama. Lanjutkan operasinya. Jangan berhenti." Kata-kata Martin seperti pisau tajam, menusuk hati Patricia.
Dia tidak pernah berpikir bahwa Martin bisa begitu kejam. Dia bahkan rela membunuh anaknya sendiri hanya untuk menyelamatkan Debbie!
"Tapi bayinya..." dokter ragu-ragu.
"Bayinya tidak penting. Aku hanya ingin Debbie sehat." Kata-kata tanpa belas kasihan Martin benar-benar menghancurkan harapan Patricia.
Hatnya terasa sakit, air matanya membakar pipinya.
Keputusasaan yang belum pernah terjadi sebelumnya menyelimuti Patricia. Pada saat ini, dia akhirnya mengerti apa artinya benar-benar patah hati.
Dia mencoba melawan, melarikan diri dari mimpi buruk ini, tapi dia tidak berdaya. Yang bisa dia lakukan hanyalah berbaring di sana saat alat bedah yang dingin menyentuh kulitnya.
Dia menangis dalam hatinya, 'Tidak! Tolong jangan! Tolong! Selamatkan bayiku...'
