Muhammad Ayden; the untold stories.
Lengannya direntap dari pegangan Ayden. Riak wajah Bella berubah. Tersentak kerana lelaki itu telah mengetahui apa yang dia cuba sembunyikan. "Kenapa awak nak tahu?"
Dahi Ayden berkerut. Tajam renungan dia menikam wajah Bella. "Sebagai masyarakat prihatin. Aku ulang, kenapa dengan tangan kau?"
Bella menjuihkan bibir. Soalan Ayden dibiar tanpa jawapan. Kakinya melangkah pergi meninggalkan Ayden di situ.
"Bella, kalau kau tak jawab aku tak nak keluar dengan kau dah." Wah sejak bila Ayden reti ugut orang ni? Dia pun tak tahu. Yang dia tahu, kesan lebam di pergelangan tangan Bella buat dia rasa nak tahu kenapa.
Ugutan Ayden berjaya membuatkan Bella berhenti melangkah. Tubuhnya berpaling menghadap Ayden. "Awak risau?"
Ayden tak mengangguk mahupun menggeleng. Hanya melihat ekspersi wajah Bella yang dia macam faham. Sedih, kosong dan kecewa.
Gabungan yang meruntuhkan.
Secara tiba - tiba, Bella mencangkuk di tengah laluan itu. Wajahnya menunduk ke bawah. "Ayden..." Bahu tiba - tiba terinjut.
Mata Ayden membulat. Lah apa dia buat sampai anak orang menangis ni? "Kau menangis ni kenapa? Halah!" Perempuan memang mengada kan?
Kaki menapak ke arah Bella. Ayden ikut mencangkung depan gadis itu. "Kalau kau tak nak bagitahu, tak apa. Aku sibuk je nak tahu." Pandangan dilarikan dari memandang wajah Bella.
Takut minah tu tak selesa muka sembab dia diperhati Ayden. Ayden ni ganas pun hati masih lembut juga. Hasil didikan ibu dan ayah tak akan pernah luput begitu sahaja.
Bella angkat muka memandang Ayden. Tangan menyeka air mata yang basahkan pipi. "Ayden... awak orang pertama risau bila tengok tangan saya... tsk tsk."
"Aku minta maaf." Hanya itu yang mampu Ayden katakan. Rasa bersalah menjengah setiap kali matanya menangkap butiran jernih yang mengalir pada pipi Bella.
Anak mata Bella bersinar. "Maaf? Sebab?" Ayden tak ada salah dekat Bella. Meskipun lelaki itu terlampau dingin, Ayden tetap layan dia dengan hormat.

Bibir Ayden mengukir senyuman. "Sebab risaukan kau." Sebelum dia bangun berdiri tegak.
Dahi Bella berkerut. Lidah jadi kelu dengan jawapan Ayden yang tak dijangka. Akhirnya, dia juga bangun dari mencangkung. "Awak masih nak tahu kenapa ke?"
Ayden gelengkan kepala. Sebelah tangan dia masukkan ke dalam poket. Membuatkan Ayden nampak sangat menarik pada mata Bella. "Tak. Keep it to yourself."
Bella tersenyum sampai ke telinga. Jari jemari meramas sesama sendiri sambil mata merenung wajah kacak Ayden. "Jadi, awak terima tak tawaran saya hari tu?"
"Tawaran apa?" Tak ingat pula.
Senyuman Bella mati. Wajah Ayden dia jeling tajam. Pelupa macam umur dah separuh abad lah Ayden ni. "Untuk saya jadi sebab awak hidup?"
Sebelah kening Ayden angkat. Oh, tawaran gila yang buat Ayden rasa nak santau Bella tu. "Hidup kau perfect sangat ke sampai nak jadi reason aku hidup."
Hujung bibir Bella terangkat. "Tak perfect, but at least I can be the reason for you to stay."
Mata mereka berdua bertembung.
Di tengah laluan, sebelum nak bertemu gajah yang tak pernah dilihat Bella secara berdepan— ada memori lebih penting untuk Bella pahatkan dalam kepala.
Iaitu.
"Kau nak aku jadi reason kau hidup tak?" Tawaran gila yang buat Bella tersenyum lebar.
Dan riak wajah kosong Ayden.
Naura mengeluh sebaik menyelak lengan baju adik bongsunya. Meskipun mereka berlainan bapa, Naura tak pernah anggap Bella macam orang luar atau menggelar anak tak sah taraf.
Bukan kesalahan Bella jika dia lahir dari benih yang salah. Semuanya salah lelaki yang merogol mum mereka dulu. Kisah dah jadi kisah, Bella tetap lahir.
Jadi Bella tetap adik Naura, tak kira siapa ayah Bella sebenarnya. Dahi Naura berkerut. "Pakai kain batik. Aku nak sapu ubat dekat badan kau."
Bella tersenyum dengar arahan kakak sulungnya. Naura memang seorang kakak yang tegas. Selalu memaksa Bella untuk dengar kata mum. Tapi Naura sebenarnya baik sangat.

Setiap kali Bella dipukul Dato' Haiqal, Naura akan datang ke rumah adik bongsunya untuk menyapu ubat dan merawat.
"Termenung apa? Pergi pakai baju yang senang aku nak selak." Arah Naura sekali lagi.
Bella mengangguk. Tanpa banyak bicara kaki melangkah ke almari baju untuk menukar pakaian. Sementara Naura membelek telefonnya.
"Akak." Bella tepuk lengan Naura sebelum baring meniarap di atas katil. Memberi Naura lebih mudah untuk menyapu krim dan ubat pada kesan luka di belakang badan.
Sebaik Naura menyelak belakang baju Bella, dia menyeringai. Kesan luka yang panjang dari bahu sampai ke tengah badan. "Aku pun sakit tengok kau macam ni."
"Aku dah biasa." Balas Bella dengan senyuman. Setiap kali jari Naura terkena luka dia, Bella mengemam bibir. Tak mahu menjerit sakit dan menyebabkan Naura risau.
Naura tak dapat tahan air mata dia dari jatuh. Mengetahui siapa yang melukai adik dia, lebih sakit Naura rasakan. "Sampai bila kau nak tahan macam ni? Parut yang lama pun tak hilang, Bella..."
Dia berhenti. Esakan Naura terhambur. Tak sanggup nak melihat kesan luka di belakang badan Bella lagi.
Bella bangun dari meniarap. "Kak, kau sendiri yang kata dekat aku kan? Aku ni kuat. Setakat luka ni, aku boleh hadap lah."
Tangan Naura menekup wajahnya. Kesal kerana tak dapat nak lindungi Bella. "Aku patut biarkan kau lari je. Jangan datang balik dah. Hidup kau terseksa dekat sini."
Bibir Bella menggaris senyuman. Tak menafikan apa yang Naura bilang. "Mum kan mak aku? Lagipun kalau aku lari, aku tak boleh hidup nanti Naura. Mum dan dad ada cara untuk buat aku terseksa..."
Sakit. Hidup Bella memang perit sejak kecil. Kerana dia lahir bukan dari benih Dato' Haiqal, Datin Nora tak melayan dan memanjakan dia seperti anak.
Mereka berdua hanya menjaga Bella kerana terpaksa. Kerana tak mahu orang di luar tahu Bella ni sebenarnya bukan anak Dato' Haiqal.
Kalau ada orang tahu sekalipun, nama mereka akan baik sebab Dato' Haiqal sanggup membesarkan budak yang bukan anaknya.
"Bella, aku minta maaf." Naura menarik adiknya ke dalam pelukan. Rasa kecewa dengan diri sendiri sebab hanya dapat melihat dan menyapu ubat pada luka Bella.
Dia kakak yang tak berguna...
Bella gelengkan kepala. Air mata ditahan. Dia tak mahu Naura tahu yang dia juga sedih. "Kak, tak apa. Bukan salah kau. Memang salah aku sebab tu dad pukul aku."
Dahi Naura berkerut. "Ini bukan salah kau. Kalau kau buat silap, kenapa kena pukul?! Tak ada cara lain ke nak mengajar?!"
Tak kisah lah Dato' Haiqal tu ayah dia sekalipun. Yang salah tetap salah. Tak guna Dato' Haiqal layan dia dan Nani dengan baik tapi layan Bella macam binatang.
"Kak, aku okay. Look? I still can smile and laugh kan? Your little sister is okay, dont worry." Senyuman diukir. Naura memang begitu, tegas tapi hati lembut.
Setiap kali Bella kena pukul, Naura yang menangis lebih. Tapi Bella bersyukur ada kakak seperti Naura yang masih mahu mengambil berat. Sekurang - kurangnya dia tahu ada orang yang masih peduli.
Naura mengesat air mata. "Kau ni kuat, Bella. Aku sayang kau."
i'm sorry that i'm too broken.
