Malam ini, aku merasakan suasana yang berbeda, Resah yang hinggap serupa ketakutan, Gelap ini menyambut seperti mantra, Menyerap rasa pada kegundahan yang aku rasakan. Di ujung malam ada suara seperti bisikan, Memanggilku yang meringkuk ketakutan, "Nadja...." Aku tetap diam, di dalam kamar yang kini terasa pengap. Udara tetiba terasa hilang, Aku semakin gemetaran. Ada yang datang! Seperti kilat yang menyambar kegelapan! Aku menjerit histeris! Menggapai apa yang bisa menggenggam ketakutanku! "Nadja, jangan takut.

Dengan jubah hitamnya yang berkibar angkuh! Satu sosok yang memberiku kehidupan yang berbeda. Yang menenggelamkan aku dalam asmara yang terlarang. Cinta yang seharusnya kubuang. Namun, nyatanya tetap kupertahankan.
