The Dream

I got a dream last night.

A dream that can make a smile unconsciously appears in my face. Silly me.

It was that kind of dream. A dream when you finally met your Prince charming. And I'll proudly say that it wasn't a sappy one. But the very me one.

In my dream, I met some people. One of them is a man that I can make a conversation animatedly. He always gave me first priority yet I didn't think it was something special. Till his sister (played by my dear lil-sis in Singaraja) told me. Said 'I don't if you're a an idiot or really ignorant. But my brother has show you all kind of sign. Yet you can't grasped it.' Then she tsked-tsked and gave me that teasing smile.

So the re-remember begins. Each of our encounters replayed in my mind. The accidentally stolen times, the great talk, the sweet help. And I saw it. Really saw it: the look in his eyes. The look that flickered many emotions without says anything. And I understand it very well.

But he doesn't know that I knew. So when we met again, it was me who can't comprehend myself. I stuttered and fidgeting the hem of my shirt. And he still look at me with the same attentive manner. I knew when he say it and look at me with those eyes, I won't denied everything. Because I can't. Because finally in my life I feel whole. I feel I can say yes without any hesitation. And I feel I found it, something that I search everyday in my life.

Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately he didn't say it. Because I woke up the moment he asked 'Whats wrong?'. At first I think it was just a dream. Then I wondering when Allah will make ut come true? Will He? Because I feel I didn't deserve it. Because I'm an ungrateful servant.

But no more. I won't think bad about it. Because Allah is what we think about Him. I always can stay negative, but I also can choose to be positive. And I chose it. I believe this is a sign from Allah that I will met him soon.

The funny thing is, even my dream is very livid and the raw emotions still fresh in the morning, I can't remember his face precisely. I just knew he had a black hair, a thick and straight one. He have a fair skin, not white but not very dark. Just like me. The natural beige. He not devastatingly handsome, yet not ugly. You can say he have a plain facial features, but nothing plain about his personality. Even better because he is someone new. No attaching name.

He is calm, patient, and always smile. He makes me feel save and comfortable. I can go on and on write about him. But let say that he is my soulmate. I think that summarized everything :-D.

Regardless it was only a dream, I feel so grateful. It was a beautiful gift from Allah. I'll cherish it. And I'll pray harder to make it come true, soon. Aamiin Yaa Rabb.

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 ...
