Nothing

Sit beside you doing nothing mean absolutely everything to me.

I fell almost instantly with the sentence even before my ever slow brain finish the analyzing.

Like any other too sweet sentence. Too sweet to be true.

But nothing beat experienced it first hand. Again, unfortunately it's not about the prince charming yet. But I feel it at least. In a form of five ball of furs. My cats and kitten.

I love the feel of their fur against my arm. I love to hug them. Feel their head rest in my hand, my stomach, my thigh. I don't know why it feel so wonderful. The love is there. So with the trust. I trust them completely. They will never broke my heart although I often feel like I'm the one who begging them.

Why? The can't say they love me back can they? Even though they ignore me most of times and only give me their sole attention when I'm about to give them the meal. But they do there. Every single time I feel down and need Emergency Cuddle Therapy. Not in a fairy tale they will held me close when I sobbing my heart's out but they're there. All of them.

A girl can only stomach some of unfairness. But she will take as much as her heart could take if that love was involved. There's nothing called overdose of love. Even it's only in a small act like they sit there quietly and let me pet them.

I think that's why sleep came hard whenever I wasn't home. I'm used to have them around and it's almost excruciating pain to miss them. I was ruined for I can't imagine my live without them in it. Now I sound so sappy.

But yeah, I'm grateful. Truly I am. For Allah let me experience that kind of love. They're just animals. Yet they understand love language even showering my family back. With so much more. Laugh and love

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 ...
