Finally

Finally, I gathered courage to tell Mamiq about my problem. Actually the last straw I need was some statements from RSM's crew. Clearly I've been delusional all the time. But rather than blaming myself to hell I accepted the fact calmly. That I am just a human, and human made mistakes. Even they've tried their best to avoid it.

Today I feel relief. Like a huge burden was lifted from my shoulders. A big rock no longer press my heart. My breathe become easier, and I can see everything with positive vibe. That's something like sobbing myself till my nose clogged, my breath hollow, and my voice hoarse did to you. I was called Janah that noon, but she didn't pick up. And I'm grateful she didn't. I thought to call Mbak Vie too. But with my conditions last night, I'll only leave them a bunch of worries. And I thought words would failed me either.

Like I was said, crying sometimes made me saw a tiny pieces that can made up my mind. So did last night. While I'm crying, I realized that my problem was not the people who want me let them in. It was me. It always me. I'm too scary to let them in till the point I did many reckless things. And sometimes it hurt them and drift them away. I understand how I can do something stupid yet disgusting in order to cover my cowardice feeling. I have a low self-esteem. And it drives me to depression, believe it or not.

My emotional scars still there. Maybe not bleeding anymore, but I knew they don't healed properly, yet. The pain remains because rather that face it I pushed them to the back of my mind, it only surfaced if I let myself to feel it. I know need help. But I can afford to go to therapist and I don't thing it's the thing I really need right now. No one will understand me like My Rabb do. No one. And I'm happy that way. At least Allah made me realized what exactly the problem that lies inside myself. And finally admit it. My next goal is to fight it. But for now, I feel contented with knew the problem first. I'll take baby steps.

Last night, when I'm emptied my heart. I found two faces that I missed the most. To my relief they are not faces that I admired, or like Nouman Ali Khan said, infatuation with. Not my parent too, because I never want them to see me in last night state. It will give them nightmares. Again, the last thing that I need. They are Janah and Mbak Vie. Yeah we are separated by islands and oceans but I knew I can always count on them. And I'll do the same for them. The odd thing is, I'm sure they feel the same way like I do, that I missed them to the moon. I hope I can be with them, anywhere will do. As long as they're there to hug me. They don't need to do anything. Just stay beside me.

Like Anna that chose Elsa than Kristoff, I chose them than I don't know who. For now, all I know they're my truly love. Besides my family. And to know that I'm not alone, is a blissful feeling. Truly it is.

Anggun: Ibu

Aku suka dangdut? Ngggg.. kayaknya nggak hard to believe banget. Apalagi karena aku juga suka lagu-lagu India. Lagu yang ku suka variatif, nggak terbatas di genre tertentu atau satu penyanyi. Yg penting ngena di hati. Dan malam ini, entahlah aku mesti senang atau sedih. Aku hampir menangis menyaksikan penampilan finalis DA3 dari Bima, Anggun. Mungkin karena mengetahui kisahnya sebagai TKI dan hanya pernah bertemu beberapa kali dengan anaknya. Mungkin karena di dekatku ada ibuq, dan membayangkan lagu itu adalah ungkapan hati ibuq dan ibu-ibu lainnya di seluruh dunia. Ditambah lagi aku belum bisa berbuat banyak untuknya. Atau mungkin, sekali lagi mungkin. Ini yang dikatakan: apa yang dilakukan dengan hati, akan sampai ke hati. Apalagi ketika baitnya sampai pada 'Kau adalah simbol kesempurnaan dariku yang tak sempurna'. Tuhan, sampai disini aku merinding. Betapa besar anugerah dan kenikmatan menjadi seorang ibu. Sesuatu yang kerapkali ku impikan. Tapi aku sadar, mungkin Allah ...

The Reflex

Siang ini di atas motor.. Tikungan agak tajam ke kanan tampak 50 meter di depanku. Tangan kiri sedia memegang rem. Tangan kanan yang sedari tadi konsen menarik gas mengendur dan berganti menarik rem. Lalu membawa stang motor sedikit membelok ke arah kanan. Tikungan terlewati dengan mulus. Semua dilakukan dengan spontan. Like they said, if you do something for years, you get pretty good at it. Or in my case, used to it. Because I'm not sure I'm a good or lousy rider. Sometimes it feels like the first but not rarely I feel the second. Aku melakukannya sebelum memikirkannya. Semua diatur otak di alam bawah sadar. Lalu ketika mobil dari arah berlawanan menyalip dan melewati kami dengan terpaut jarak sekian puluh senti saja, jantungku langsung seperti ingin meloncat dari rongganya. Bahkan jantungku bukan milikku sendiri. Ia bekerja mengikuti ritme tubuh. Sesuai dengan kebutuhan. Aku tak bisa mendiktenya untuk berdetak 85 kali saja. Ia memiliki mekanisme tersendiri. Pun paru-paru...

Malin Kundang

"Dimana itu Nak?" Pertanyaan protokoler akhirnya keluar di ujung sana. I almost roll my eyes if it wasn't for the answer itself. What was this place called again? My brain went blank. In panic state I running in storange room names my brain, rummaging for some memory. Nope, nada. Fortunately, there's last source of knowledge standing there. I turn to her and ask. "Dimana namanya ini lenga?" My, my. The look on her face is priceless. Just like I ask her where is my keys when its dangling in my bag. I I can't help but broke into laugh. "Ya Allah lenga beneran side lupa?! Karang Sukun." Cue for the stern-looking-mom-expression. It was so understatement. I was lived in that area for almost one year yet it's name easily slipped from my mind. I was never intended to comeback to my old landlord yet Cg's landlord came 500 kilometers across sea to attend her wedding. Yep, I can totally see the picture here. Not only that time Cg must huffing ...
