Dari Meysa


Putih, sayang.⁣
⁣
Kita sudah berteman sejak hari pertamamu dan genap setahun pertamaku hidup di dunia. Sekarang usiaku sudah tiga tahun, kata orang berarti usiamu setara dua puluh delapan tahun. ⁣Wow, kita berbeda dua puluh lima tahun!
⁣
Apa yang sedang kamu pikirkan, ya? Mungkin cara untuk menguasai atau mempertahankan wilayah? Cara melawan musuh yang berdatangan dari kampung sebelah? Cara mendapatkan si manis tetangga seberang?⁣
⁣
Itu kalau kamu masih bersamaku. Sekarang, mungkin kamu sedang memikirkan akan cari makan di warung kaki lima yang mana? Cara mendapatkan lele goreng dari warung nasi uduk yang pemiliknya super galak? Cara melawan tatapan sinis dan geraman dari penduduk lokal emperan kota?⁣
⁣
Ah, aku rindu sekali padamu. Kamu adalah anak paling penurut yang pernah aku lihat, karena kamu selalu membersamai ibumu kapanpun dan dimanapun. Suaramu yang imut. Gerakanmu yang lincah.⁣
⁣
Ada salam dari kakek. Meskipun kakek yang memindahkan kamu ke kota, beliau sangat berterima kasih karena kamu sudah memburu satu tikus pengganggu di dalam rumah. Ada salam juga dari ibumu. Dia sangat kangen, tapi sekarang sedang sangat sibuk mengurus tiga adik barumu. Kamu harus melihat mereka semua. Salah satu dari mereka sangat mirip denganmu.⁣
⁣
Sudah dulu, ya. Jangan nakal, jangan pipis sembarangan. Nanti kamu dipindahin sama pemilik warung nasi uduk ke hutan, hehehe. Bercanda!⁣
⁣
Salam sayang,⁣
Meysa.⁣

Sometimes you lose track of time when you're looking at everyone else's lives. Just like being in the supermarket.  Sometimes you lose track of time when you're in the supermarket. You're looking at the beauty of how things are organized well. You're looking at cute snacks or instant noodles, fancy looking utensils or various sheet masks. You're going through every corridor and every section but that's it. You're not going to buy anything. You're just admiring them. You even forget what you really need to buy. You even forget who you are going to the supermarket with and separate absently. Sometimes you lose track of time when you're looking at everyone else's lives because they are so perfect and beautiful to see. You're going through every person and every stories but that's it. You're not going to take any lessons for yourself to grow. You're just admiring them, and be jealous sometimes, or regretting your choices before. Y...

Truth or Dare

Been more than a year that I keep on hiding behind, literally, everything that I can see as shelter or coverage. It's like the secret will cause earthquake if spilled when the truth is it won't cause even a single movement of air. At some point, I feel like I could burst out because of this. I need someone to react to the secret. I keep talking to the air and myself in a quiet conservation, talking between the rain noises, talking to papers and then toss them away. At some point I feel like I want to be in a session of truth or dare game to be asked to tell the truth. Every time feels like not the right one. Every person feels like not the right listener. I feel so bad about this and it is a little weird that I'm hoping for a "bad" news as soon as possible so I can get over it. Please, pretty please, give me them bad news!! Thank you for reading my tedtalk everyone.
