Chapter 1

Lexie

Pada pandangan pertama, kamu mungkin fikir saya hanyalah seorang gadis biasa berumur sembilan belas tahun. Tiada apa yang menonjol tentang saya jika kamu tidak memerhati dengan teliti. Saya bekerja di sebuah restoran keluarga di Gwinn, Michigan. Saya belajar Zoologi di universiti di sini. Saya tinggal sendirian di sebuah rumah dua tingkat kecil di pinggir bandar. Lihat, biasa dan sederhana, dan sehingga baru-baru ini saya akan sepenuhnya bersetuju dengan kamu. Nama saya Alexandria, Lexie untuk pendeknya. Dan ini adalah kisah di mana hidup saya berubah menjadi cerita magik yang hanya kamu lihat dalam filem atau buku.

Ia bermula pada hari pertama musim salji dan tanah sudah dilitupi oleh salji putih yang tebal dan masih turun dengan lebat. "Jadi ini yang dipanggil salji ringan," saya berkata kepada diri sendiri sambil menggelengkan kepala. Saya menarik kot saya lebih rapat dan masuk ke dalam Chevy Silverado biru tengah malam tahun sembilan puluh lapan saya. Jangan ketawa, ayah saya membelinya murah untuk saya apabila saya mendapat lesen. Kami membaikinya bersama-sama sehingga ia berfungsi seperti mimpi. Saya melemparkan beg galas saya di tempat duduk penumpang dan menghidupkan trak, berharap ia akan cepat panas.

Seragam kerja saya tidak direka untuk kehangatan. Ia adalah gaun berjalur merah dan putih yang sampai ke lutut saya. Dan melebar di pinggang, menonjolkan pinggul dan punggung saya. Bahagian atasnya malangnya menunjukkan terlalu banyak belahan untuk citarasa saya. Tambah stoking merah dan kasut putih dan pakaian itu lengkap. Tambah kepada penampilan rambut merah cerah saya yang diikat dalam ekor kuda dan selendang putih. Sejujurnya, saya kelihatan seperti gula-gula batang setinggi lima kaki tujuh inci dan pelayan kereta dari era lima puluhan. Ya, saya tinggi tetapi saya mempunyai banyak lengkungan yang seragam saya tidak menyembunyikan. Saya mempunyai bentuk jam pasir yang saya sangat banggakan tetapi pakaian itu menunjukkan sedikit terlalu banyak.

Saya rasa bos saya ada minat terhadap era lima puluhan kerana restoran itu juga begitu, tetapi hei, ia adalah pekerjaan. Pekerjaan yang membayar bil dan sesuai dengan jadual sekolah saya. Tambahan pula, orang yang saya bekerja bersama sangat baik dan pelanggan sentiasa mesra dan memberi tip yang agak baik. Saya memandu ke tempat letak kereta kecil di seberang jalan dari restoran. Memang nasib, baru saja saya mula panas, saya perlu keluar semula dalam salji. Saya mengambil beg galas saya, memasukkan kunci ke dalam poket jaket dan mengunci trak. Saya berjalan secepat mungkin, tanpa tergelincir dan jatuh, ke restoran.

Restoran itu sendiri adalah tempat kecil berbentuk L yang comel. Tempat duduk merah terang berbaris di dinding luar dan tingkap depan. Meja dua orang perak dengan bahagian atas Formica merah dan kerusi perak dengan kusyen merah diletakkan di tengah-tengah antara tempat duduk dan kaunter. Kaunter mengambil bahagian depan restoran yang selebihnya. Dapur berada di belakang kaunter dengan tingkap segi empat besar di mana kami menerima pesanan. Di lorong terdapat bilik mandi, bilik loker, serta pejabat. Lantainya membuat semuanya menonjol dengan jubin hitam dan putih berpetak. Ia mempunyai suasana lima puluhan apabila kamu melihat rekod vintage dan poster lama yang tergantung di dinding.

"Hai, sayang," Patsy menyambut saya dengan senyuman mesra dari tempat dia berdiri di belakang kaunter. Patsy adalah seorang wanita manis dalam lingkungan enam puluhan saya rasa, tidaklah saya akan bertanya. Dia adalah wanita kecil kira-kira lima kaki tiga inci dengan rambut coklat muda yang sentiasa diikat dalam sanggul ketat. Salah satu perkara terbaik tentang Patsy ialah tidak kira waktu apa pun, dia sentiasa dalam mood yang baik. Saya sangat suka bekerja dengannya. "Bagaimana kamu menikmati salji pertama?" Patsy bertanya.

Menggoncangkan salji dari rambut dan jaket saya, saya menjawab, "Saya tidak tahu jika saya akan pernah terbiasa dengannya. Saya sejuk beku. Saya tidak pernah berada dalam salji sebelum ini. Saya tidak tahu bagaimana untuk menghadapinya. Saya dari Florida, untuk menangis dengan kuat." Patsy hanya tersenyum. "Jangan risau. Saya tahu kamu akan baik-baik saja. Ingat apa yang saya beritahu tentang berpakaian berlapis. Sekarang cepat datang ke sini dan bantu saya." Saya meletakkan beg galas saya di bilik belakang dan kembali untuk membantu Patsy.

"Di mana nak mula?" saya tanya sambil Patsy menyeduh kopi baru. "Nah, minum ini sambil kamu siapkan peralatan makan," katanya sambil menghulurkan secawan teh panas dengan madu kepada saya. "Ia akan membantu menghangatkan kamu," dia sambung. Saya duduk di hujung kaunter sambil membungkus sudu, garpu, dan pisau bersama-sama sambil meneguk teh saya. Patsy betul, ia memang menghangatkan saya. Dia mengambil bekas garam untuk diisi semula dan duduk di sebelah saya. Kedai makan itu kosong, jadi sekarang adalah masa yang sesuai untuk apa yang Patsy panggil 'masa perempuan'. Yang sebenarnya hanya cara dia untuk memeriksa keadaan saya. Dia telah melakukannya sejak saya berpindah ke sini.

"Macam mana sekolah? Suka kelas-kelas kamu?" dia tanya. "Baik. Pensyarah ok. Kerja rumah lebih banyak daripada yang saya jangka, jadi saya perlu belajar setiap peluang yang ada untuk mengekalkan gred saya," saya jawab. "Lexi, sayang, kamu tak boleh hidup dalam buku saja. Saya tahu ini penting bagi kamu, tapi bagaimana dengan kawan-kawan? Ada buat kawan baru? Saya tahu kamu belum pergi ke mana-mana parti atau keluar dating." Saya hampir tersedak teh yang baru saya teguk dan mula batuk. Saya perlu tarik nafas sebelum menjawab, "Patsy, saya ok. Saya diajak masuk beberapa kumpulan belajar. Parti bukan gaya saya. Dan untuk dating, saya tak ada masa. Saya gembira habiskan masa dengan kamu dan buku-buku saya," saya beritahu dia.

Secara umumnya, begitulah kecuali bahagian dating. Saya tidak dating. Tak pernah. Saya pernah diajak keluar beberapa kali selama bertahun-tahun dan juga beberapa kali sejak berpindah ke sini tapi saya selalu menolak. Jangan salah faham, saya mahu dating. Tapi entah kenapa, naluri saya memberitahu saya supaya tidak pergi. Saya perlu tunggu. Untuk apa saya tidak tahu. Saya selalu mempercayai naluri saya jadi saya menunggu. Ibu saya dulu panggil ia suara dalaman dan saya patut beri perhatian. Dan saya selalu lakukan.

"Oh, Lexi," Patsy mula bersuara ketika sepasang warga emas masuk dan duduk di seksyennya. "Kembali bekerja tapi perbualan ini belum selesai," katanya dan pergi menyambut pelanggan. Bila berkaitan dengan saya, saya bersumpah Patsy seperti anjing dengan tulang. Jadi saya tahu dia takkan lepaskan ini walaupun saya harap dia akan. Aliran pelanggan yang berterusan membuat kami sibuk seketika. Saya bersyukur kerana ia membuat syif berlalu lebih cepat dan saya boleh elakkan soalan Patsy. Saya tahu niatnya baik tapi saya tak rasa nak bincang tentang kehidupan cinta saya terutama untuk sesuatu yang saya sendiri tak faham. Bukan saya tak mahu seseorang tapi saya berpegang pada apa yang naluri saya kata. Saya rasa ia akan berbaloi akhirnya.

Secepat semua orang datang, saya bersumpah mereka semua keluar pada masa yang sama. Sekarang hanya tinggal saya, Patsy dan tukang masak kami. Patsy dan saya membersihkan meja dan mengemas. "Bantu saya habiskan dan kemudian kamu boleh ambil tempat duduk di belakang untuk belajar sekejap," Patsy kata. Saya hampir nak bantah tapi sebelum saya sempat buka mulut, dia sambung, "Kalau kita sibuk saya akan panggil kamu. Salji turun dengan lebat jadi saya rasa tak ramai orang akan datang kalau ada pun." Saya setuju dengannya, "Ok, tapi saya akan kunci kedai dan kamu balik awal untuk sekali ini." Patsy tersenyum lebar, "Anak, kamu ada perjanjian."

Patsy betul, kedai tetap kosong sementara kami mengemas. Saya ambil beg galas saya dan pergi ke meja terakhir di belakang supaya saya tidak mengganggu jika ada pelanggan yang datang. Saya letakkan buku-buku saya di atas meja dengan buku nota di depan saya. Saya begitu fokus pada kerja saya sehingga tidak perasan Patsy membawa secawan teh lagi sehingga dia menepuk bahu saya. "Hei, minum," katanya. "Macam mana kerja rumah?" dia tanya. "Tak teruk. Saya rasa hampir siap. Dan yang terbaik, saya rasa saya faham kebanyakannya." Patsy ketawa, "Saya pasti kamu faham lebih daripada yang kamu fikir. Saya tahu betapa pandainya kamu walaupun kamu tak tahu. Saya tahu kamu tamat sekolah menengah dengan cemerlang." "Sekolah menengah mudah. Yang ini, tak begitu," saya kata. Patsy hanya memeluk saya sebagai sokongan. "Saya tinggalkan kamu dengan kerja kamu," dan dia kembali ke kaunter untuk membaca bukunya. Kadang-kadang saya cemburu dengannya. Saya tak ingat kali terakhir saya membaca untuk keseronokan.

Neither does the memory of Tyler. Leaving her here without a second thought.

I shouldn’t care.

I don’t care.

It’s not my problem if Tyler’s an idiot.

It’s not my business if some spoiled little princess has to walk home in the dark.

I’m not here to rescue anyone.

Especially not her.

Especially not someone like her.

She’s not my problem.

And I’ll make damn sure she never becomes one.

"Yes,"

Everyone looked in that direction and there was a man standing there that I had never noticed before.
