Blog EntryGaya nggak bisa dibeli pake uangJun 30, '08 8:19 AM
for everyone
(entry will be private after few days)

Siang ini pas makan siang, kebetulan gue pergi makan di luar ama temen-temen gue. Biasalah ngobrol ini itu ngalor ngidul sampe temen gue, Cia cerita tentang temennya yang Orang Kaya Baru (OKB). si OKB ini ceritanya jalan-jalan ke Beverly hills, mungkin belanja di Rodeo Drive juga etc etc. Nah kisahnya justru mulai seru pas si OKB makan di salah satu resto/café di Beverly hills itu...udah ye makan ini itu sampe udah mao pulang, pasti manggil pelayannya kan. nah imaginez scene kejadian:

OKB    : "miss, BON please"
pelayan: "excuse me?"
OKB    : "Bon...Bon" sambil tangannya gerak-gerak kayak mao tandatangan
pelayan: "I'm sorry, I don't understand"
OKB    : "OOOh...okay...THE bon"

ngerti nggak?
si OKB mikir dengan menambah THE di depan kata BON bisa bikin si pelayan ngerti. Kalo dia di restoran padang mungkin kata Bon bisa dimengerti, tapi kalo di tempat lain UMUMnya pake kata BILL bukaan?
trus abis ngakak ngikik ngebayangin kejadian itu, si Cia ngomong:
"Emang ya, gaya tuh nggak bisa dibeli pake uang"


Jujur aja, gue jadi teringat sama seseorang. Mungkin yang bikin agak beda (dikit) adalah si seseorang yang gue kenal ini bukan OKB (karena setau gue sih dia nggak jadi Kaya), cuma jadi orang yang nggak tahan banting ama yang namanya CULTURE SHOCK. Gue bukan mao omongin gimana dia tergoncang culture shock, tapi lebih mao nyampein kalo gue setuju banget sama pendapatnya Cia.

nggak peduli lo kerja di tempat yang high end, atau lo mungkin punya uang untuk beli semua summer collectionnya Balenciaga atau Viktor and Rolf, atau lo pergi ke luar negeri bolak balik naek jet pribadi...tetep aja, kalo lo nggak kuat iman...ya, ujung2nya NORAK.

abis mikir2in itu, kebetulan gue buka-buka majalah yang nampilin socialite dalam dan luar negeri, trus acaranya preston bailey, gosip nikahannya si bakrie, dll dll...jelas dong mewah dan glamour dan cantik dan ganteng pokoknya bagus2 deh. trus gue jadi kepikiran lagi, yah day dreaming kali ya seandainya gue jadi orang kaya kayak mereka...
guess what?..

gue ga bisa daydreaming of being THAT rich.

the idea or concept being rich, apalagi rich dalam artian tajir melintir ampe bingung mao buang uang kemana itu nggak nyampe ke otak gue.

mikir beli ini itu sih gampang, ikut les anu itu, jalan2 kemana aja, bangun rumah yang art deco, atau bisa ikut program pelangsingan badan tiap bulan itu gampang. mikir idup yang begitu itu gampang. tapi lagi2...my traitorus mind memutuskan untuk nongol lagi dengan pertanyaan:

setelah lo punya everything money can buy..TERUS APA?
apa lagi yang bisa lo capai? apa lo bikin yayasan untuk world peace, atau bantu korban perang atau sponsorin penelitian obat AIDS atau kanker?
APA? APA? APA????

capek nggak sih idup yang bertanya2 begitu? maksud gue, dengan idup gue yang sekarang aja gue masih bertanya2 apa yang mao gue lakuin buat masa depan gue. gimana kalo gue jadi orang kayaaa banget? mungkin gue mao nguasain dunia kali ya...

ihihii, jadi nyambung ga ama judul ? hehehe semoga nyambung...biasalah, impuls spontan.





Blog EntryMa Vie n’est Pas une Comédie RomantiqueJun 28, '08 11:42 AM
for everyone
terjemahan bebas: hidup gue bukan komedi romantis.

itu judul film prancis yang pas Festival Cinema Prancis April kemaren gue tonton bareng temen-temen di blitz. WEITS... ini bukan review film hehehehe.

jadi kenapa mendadak gue nulis blog ini? huhuhu, ga laen ga bukan gara2 gue lagi denger lagunya the beatles yang something dan kemaren pas nebeng pulang ama Cia, si Kusnandar juga mendadak ngomong :

"eh, lo mao tau gak my deepest, darkest secret?"...

pas itu gue udah mikir, wah parah nih anak jangan2 dia anak ga bener (secara dia kurus banget !!! EH Kusnandar, I'M NOT insinuating ANYTHING LHOOH lo kan kurus beneran huahahaha)...trus tiba2 dengan dreamy voice dia jawab sendiri :

"my deepest, darkest secret adalah gue pengen banget ada cowok yang nyanyiin lagu dengan sepenuh hati buat gue, and i don't care how sappy, corny it is"

trus gue kan jadi bingung, BEGITUAN apanya yang deepest darkest secret? bukannya malah sunny sunny sunshine ya? trus daripada gue berasumsi (karena ASSUMPTION IS THE MOTHER OF ALL FUCK UPS...*ups inside joke* no offense), gue tanya aja ama si Kusnandar kenapa itu jadi deepest darkest secret dia. jawabnya adalah:


"ya karena gue tuh bukan cewek yang mushy-mushy dan fluffy. karena gue DARK dan deepest darkest secret gue justru sappy begituuu, tapi kalo emang sampe ada cowok yang beneran ngelakuin itu, gue ga akan mao ngaku walau dalem hati gue udah luluh lantah"

OH I GOT IT!!! intinya : KUSNANDAR MUNAFIK huahahaha tapi bukan itu my sweets. INTINYA ADALAH : Notre Vie n’est Pas une Comédie Romantique dan gue MUNAFIK JUGA HEHEHEHE. gue ga harus jelasin kenapa. tapi kalo emang gue disuruh bikin list "MY DEEPEST DARKEST SECRETS" à la Kus atau IMLI atau Every little things He does is Magic atau apalah.


ah, daripada bengong mending kita mulai, lo juga bisa nambahin lho ! daftar ini dibuat berdasarkan ummm apa ya? random deh . kl ada hal baru yang gue inget, bakal gue update hehehe

MY DEEPEST DARKEST SECRETS à la Kusnandar :
1. tau kebiasaan gue yang HAMPIR ga ada yang tau. clue : jari dan udara
2. ngasih gue buku first edition dengan dedication note yang bikin termehe2
3. dijodohin tapi ama orang yang emang udah gue suka HUAHAHAHAHA
4. out of the blue ngasih gue satu buket bunga matahari
5. nyontek moi: nyanyiin lagu buat gue dengan sepenuh hati (walaupun fals minta ampun dan ditontonin orang banyak)
6. he tucked my hair behind my ear and looked me straight to my eyes and leaned and..*Insert imagination*
7. Ode's :ngantri beli dessert sambil nebak2 apa yang mao dibeli di pinggir jalan NY à la maid of honor scene
8. dhance's: maen piano sambil nyanyi buat gue
9. dhance's: dansa pake lagu quando quando...(ck ck ck, nggak nyangka)



ummm lagi ilang neh ide....kasih masukan dong!

Blog Entrykenal mereka ? know them ?Dec 24, '07 11:40 AM
for everyone
Anda kenal mereka ? beritahu saya...
Do you know them ? tell me...

ayook, sedikit iseng-iseng. menurut lo siapa lebih ganteng :
   








Hum… kapan ya kenal Mamoru Chiba ? mungkin sekitar taun 1994 atau kapanlah itu pas sailormoon muncul. Kesan pertama, begitu menggoda. Beneran. Menurut gue ketika itu dia adalah tokoh komik paling ganteng sedunia (walaupun pada perkembangannya gue mendapati seorang tokoh laen yang tidak kalah ganteng!...we’ll talk about it later). Seriously, apa yang menarik sih dari mr. Chiba ini ? selain dari (fiksi) bahwa dia adalah seorang pahlawan pembela kebenaran (a.k.a Tuxedo bertopeng) dan prince in shining armor (Endymion) ? hum, I just have to answer it with : “lihat gambar di atas” . he’s obviously the epitome of coolness ! sungguh sangat membuat gadis2 pada masa itu termehe-mehe dan berharap jadi usagi tsukino. Belakangan gue mendapati semua tokoh ciptaan tante Naoko Takeuchi amat-amat memenuhi persyaratan lelaki ideal, yah misalnya deh jago maen piano, atletis, pake kacamata (rada fetish deh liat laki2 keren pake kacamata), pinter…oh I can talk about this forever, but I don’t want to make you bored. So anywayyy…masih tentang Mamoru Chiba (or the devilishly sexy mr. Chiba) gue punya teori ga penting dalam idup gue bahwa, dia menentukan standard lelaki ideal dalam idup gue (that is until Draco Malfoy came along) gue rasa gue ga akan bisa untuk nggak ngebandingin seorang cowok ama mamoru chiba. He’s like…uhh I dunno !! just enough for today. This is officially my mamoru chiba drabble. Don’t like it ? well, at least I know you’re doing eyef**k (Audrey teach me that word, sue her) with mamoru’s picture there….i understand completely. *grins*. trus tak lupa tentang Saka si Gold Saint Gemini, gue sih ga tau itu gemini yang jahat ato yang baek, yang jelas dia keren. huahaha. sumpah gue broken hearted banget waktu RCTI dengan kunyuknya mendadak ngilangin saint seiya (yang ketika itu lagi seru-serunya berantem ama gemini) demi film kartun kacrut bernama rose of versailles atau apalah itu. sebenernya ada satu lagi gold saint yang kerennya naujubilahminjalik itu tuh si scorpio...rasanya nakal gitu. hehehhehe. tapi gemini tetep kerennya lebih keren. ooh mulai deh gila. tapi belakangan ini emang gue kerjaannya nyari gambar2 saint-seiya, sailormoon dan yang paling gue rindukan : the cherry project. mungkin banyak yang ga tau (atau malah tau semua?) tng komik ini? um, ini komiknya tante naoko juga (seperti juga miss rain dan maria...all time classic) tng pemain skating. cuma ada 3 seri tuh gue nyari-nyari ampe sekarang rasanya ga ketemu-ketemu. kalo ada gue mao dong !!!! hehehe, ah udah deh bisa gila deh kalo ngomongin ini semua. but i love it. tokoh komik yang membuatku tergila-gila ....aah


Blog Entrythe lady in red trench coatJun 24, '07 8:20 AM
for everyone

He looked at his wife who crossed the street

She was wearing a red trench coat which she promised to throw away

And which she kept pulling out of her closet, year after year

She approached all things the same way

And it was that trait that attracted him, when he first met her

The same clothes worn over and over again

Piles of lipstick which she never used

That song...life’s vortex, which she intonated while making food

Was a part of the life that had become alien to him

And which he intended to abandon between the main dish and dessert

He realized the weird and logical inappropriateness of the place

He had chosen to abandoned her

It was here that he first realized

That he had stopped loving her

When she smiled, he was on the verge of shouting : I’m leaving you

Stop smiling

But instead he offered her some wine

It pissed him off that she never ordered any hors d’ oeuvres or dessert

But she almost always ate his whole portion

The worst thing was that he always ended up ordering what she loved

I’m not sure I actually like that cake. He thought solemnly

When she started to cry like she never cried before

He thought that she knows he was leaving her for Marie Christine

A passionate flight attendant who he loved for a year and a half

She knows, he thought

She’s known it for some time

I should have expected it

Still crying, she took out some documents from her handbag

And handed them to him

The documents were written in a lifeless medical language

And described leukemia in its terminal stage

Having read the documents, the meeting’ s purpose flew out of his mind

And a weird metallic voice said to him :

You have to be up to the task !

And he was

He ordered 3 pieces of cake as take out

And sent an sms to his mistress

Forget about  me.

He surrounded her with the care she always desired

He hung paintings. He moved things from one place to another

He accompanied her to morning showings of her favorite movies

He went with her to sales, even though he hated shopping

He read murakami’s “ sputnik sweetheart” aloud

And everything, even the most mundane things had a different meaning

Since he learned he was doing them for her for the last time

Behaving like a man in love

He once again become a man in love

And when she died in his arms

He fell into an emotional coma

From which he never awoke

And until this day

Years later

His heart still sinks

When he sees a woman in a red trench coat

Blog Entrylove it love itMar 8, '07 10:17 AM
for everyone

jadi nih salah satu cerita si abang malfoy yang kita ketahui bersama adalah...my sick pleasure...tapi sumpah, tanpa bermaksud nyuri cerita ato gimana ini cerita gue ambil dari fanfiction.net, gue lupa aja sapa yang bikin nih cerita.

disclaimer : not mine, not even the writer's, all character goes to JK.Rowling...and by the way, whoever wrote this story, i didn't took it, i just forget your name. so here goes :

Pure Lunacy

 

for the first time
I'm telling how much I need and bleed for
your every move and waking sound in my time
I'll wrap my wire around your heart
and your mind
you're mine forever now
who wouldn't be the one you love and live for
who wouldn't stand inside your love and die for
who wouldn't be the one you love
-Stand Inside your Love, The Smashing Pumpkins

      

        They all like to say that I 'saw' the light. That one day I woke up and decided that Voldemort was not the way and that Dumbledore and his army were. That I finally saw that being an evil bastard was just not a good thing to be.

         Give me a break.

        The truth is I figured out after awhile that I was on the losing side. And being the smart guy I am, I gracefully made my way over to the winning side. That, and I wanted to spite my father. Because, you know, all boys hate their fathers.

        

       No, they do. It's some deep, psychological thing. That, and my father was a real jackass.

        

        It has a lot to do with her. Do you think if I was still a Death Eater I would have fallen in love with Hermione Granger? Come on, now. That's not to say that when I switched sides I fell head over heels right away. In fact, I hated Granger more than ever. Since the Aurors couldn't really be sure of me, they assigned one of their best to keep an eye on me. One of their best happened to be Granger, of course. And she was awful. She took everything I said as some symbolic threat. She followed me everywhere. If I made any sudden movements, she stupefied me. And you know, I think that might have caused some brain damage. That, and I developed a tic. She constantly questioned my actions.

            'Why are you sitting there?'

            'Why are you reading that?'

            'Why do you want to go there?'

            'Why are you breathing?'

      

       No, she didn't ask me why I was breathing, but I'm trying to make a point here. Anyway this went on for about two months, and I was about to go back to being a Death Eater.

        

       Yeah, really. But then, the Ministry was directly attacked. Remember that? Remember hearing about how nasty it was? Well, I was there, fighting against those I used to call comrades. I was dealing with MacNair when my father, the bastard, cast a really nasty curse meant for me. And guess what happened?

        

       Granger screamed my name, my first name, pushed me out of the way and got hit by it instead. It pissed me off, I've never been so angry.

       

       Well, I killed MacNair, and then I turned around and killed my father.

        

       Yeah, it was me who kill Lucius Malfoy. I asked the people who witnessed it to keep quiet about the situation.

        

       It felt good. And no, I don't regret it at all. Actually, that's not true, I did regret it a little when Weasley… Ron Weasley complained that Lucius would have been better to us alive. But other than that…

        

       She was unconscious for nearly a month, as you know. You were all pretty sure she wouldn't wake up, that she was brain dead. But I knew better, I knew that Granger was a fighter, so I didn't give up on her.

         

       …No, that's not when I fell in love with her! Are you crazy? I despised her more than anything that month. If she died, then her life would have been on my hands. And I hated her for putting me in that position. She woke up, though. And she looked at Potter, at Weasley, at Lupin, and then at me. And do you know what the first words out of her mouth were?

         

       'Are you alright, Malfoy?' What the hell kind of question is that to ask after being in a coma for a month? 'Are you alright, Malfoy?'  What a lunatic.

        

       I said I was fine. And she smiled that small smile of hers that made you feel like you were the most important and wonderful person in the world. Then she drifted back into a healthy sleep, leaving the four of us dumbfounded.

        

        After she was fully recovered and back in business the most evil man in the world decided to do the most sadistic thing.

        

       No, not Voldemort. Dumbledore. Anyway, he decided that Granger and I would make a good team. I failed to see the logic in this arrangement, and so did Granger. But Dumbledore apparently saw plenty of logic, because he pushed for it. I don't think I've ever resented the crazy, old man more.

        So, Granger and I would become the strangest and most unlikely partners in Auror history, but we would also become the best. It turned out, that despite all our differences, Granger and I thought alike. We just executed our tactics differently. She was a Gryffindor and I was a Slytherin, after all. After arguing these tactics with each other, and nearly biting each other's head off in the process, we would eventually settle for middle ground. This really threw off our enemies, and we had many victories as a result. And since Granger was naturally inclined to be act like an overly sentimental idiot, and I had a debt to pay, we always looked out for each other. You wouldn't believe the bounty Voldemort put on our heads. Makes a chap feel kind of proud.

         

          Yeah, yeah, I'm getting to it. What is it with you women and romance? So, here were me and Granger, kicking Death Eater ass. And when we weren't kicking Death Eater ass, or fighting, we treated each other with a cold formality. Potter would later say that the sexual tension between us was glaringly obvious.

        

         No. I really didn't feel any sexual tension at all during that time. At least, not consciously.  I had no reason to, you see. For the most part, I forgot that my partner was female, and I preferred it that way. It made things less complicated. … But that would change, unfortunately.

         One day, one horrible day, I went to Granger's flat to discuss our newest assignment. She didn't answer the door after I rang the bell twice, so I just walked right in. I remember being annoyed at her for never bothering to lock her door. As I was closing it, and locking it myself, I heard a crash from her bedroom. And it scared the hell out of me. What if she was being attacked? So I kicked opened her bedroom door, and stepped in, wand ready. But Granger wasn't being attacked, the rack that held all those …what are they called? Those flat, silver plates that muggles use to play music? DZs? …DCs? …No, CDs! Yeah, that's it. Anyway, it fell and the CD's were scattered all over her bedroom floor. I would have just rolled my eyes, called her a klutz, and told her to hurry up. If it weren't for one very unfortunate detail…

       

        Granger was standing there, staring wide-eyed at the fallen CD rack, hairbrush in her hand, hair wet, bath towel at her feet, completely naked and completely perfect in everyway. When I burst into the room, she looked up at me, and then back down at the towel that, I'm assuming, she dropped when the CD rack fell, then she looked up at me. Then a lovely blush stained her cheeks, and she screamed at me to get the hell of her room and threw the hairbrush at me. I was out of her room in less than a second, and then out of her flat in two seconds. But it was already too late. I had seen enough for my mind and body to remember that Hermione Granger was, indeed, a female, and a very nice looking one at that.

        

         That little minx pretended the whole thing never happened. And I figured I could get over it just fine. I mean, it's not like I was deprived or anything, I knew plenty of girls that would be willing and ready to sleep with me. But things only got worse for me, because suddenly I was noticing things. The shapeliness and fullness of her lips that made her look like she was pouting. The way she bit that bottom lip when she was nervous. The dimple in her right cheek when she smiled. The fact that her eyes were the color of cinnamon. The way she lifted her chin stubbornly when she knew she was right. The small mole on her right shoulder. The way she talked with her hands. How she always smelled of Vanilla. Her no-nonsense walk. The little sounds she made when she was irritated with me. All of it just came into full focus.

        

         It  made me want to scream at her and destroy her with one good hex. But mostly I wanted to kiss her until she couldn't think straight. I wanted to push her against my desk in our office, rip all of her non-flattering clothes off, and take her right then and there. Right on that damn desk. I wanted to replace that self-righteous look of hers with a look of pure pleasure. …And I really could go on and on, but from the look on your face, I doubt you think it's appropriate.

       

        Well, the lust was fast and chaotic, and it left me breathless. The love, on the other hand, was a bit sneakier; it crept up on me slowly. In the beginning, it was a very rare thing for Granger and I just to talk.You know, have a conversation about a book or something. But gradually, Granger would just start telling me things. What she thought of a book, the weather, a color, rumors, universal theories and stuff like that. It was in her nature to enjoy discussing things; she just needed to get comfortable enough with a person before she did. And being that she spent time with me more than anyone else, she probably figured that she either had to fight against her nature, or give in and get comfortable with me. She chose the latter. So, I got to know Granger really well. And after awhile, she became more than my partner, and a great annoyance in my life. She became a person. And I liked the person she was. Why wouldn't I? She was intelligent, witty, and she had a good sense of humor.

        

         The day I realized I was in love with her was the day we got caught in the rain. We were tying up some loose ends in a muggle park where the Death Eaters had killed a few muggles a few weeks before. It was dismal, boring, routine work that always put Granger in a dark mood. We both wanted to be done and out as soon as possible. Just as we finished, the sky, which had been ominously dark all day, rumbled with a loud thunderclap, and rained down on us. We were drenched in seconds. I yelled at Granger over the rain that we were done and that we needed to get the hell out of that park before we drowned. But Granger just stood, staring straight ahead, seeing something that wasn't really there. I remember scowling and walking over to her, and putting my hand on her shoulder, shaking her…

       "We need to go!" I said.

       She turned and looked at me, smiling sadly. "Everyone thinks that rain represents sadness, death, misery… all those horrible things. I've never thought that. Rain is life, rain washes away all the bad, all the pain."

       She lifted her arms and face to the sky, and spun once. Then she glanced at me and her smile was no longer sad, but happy and playful. She put her arms down and took my hands in hers. "Play with me, Malfoy!"

       I stared at her like she had lost it. "...What?"

       Her smile grew wider. "Play in the rain with me!"

       Then she pulled me with her into a puddle that was nearly knee-deep in depth. I glared at her and started making my way out of that lake of a puddle, but she held on. I gave my wrist a good, hard yank, which took her by surprise and had her falling into me. I lost my balance and we both fell.

       I was in the cold, muddy water, but her body was warm and soft against mine. It was an extremely uncomfortable situation. "Damn it, Granger!"

       She looked at me a bit wide-eyed, then rolled off me much to my relief and misery, and sat next to me. "Geez, Malfoy. Way to ruin the fun."

       I sneered, gripped a handful of mud at the bottom of the puddle, and smeared it on to her face. She screamed in surprise, and took her own handful of mud and threw it at me. It went on like that. We threw mud at each other like we were five-year-old Neanderthals.

       Eventually she yelled that she gave up and then she laughed, that rich and carefree laugh that I loved, but I didn't know why. I just grinned at her.

       "See? Wasn't that fun?" She said.

       "Oh yes, but it might have been more fun if you were naked… and you were fighting in the mud with another naked girl. And I was a few feet away, under an umbrella, cheering you on." I drawled, trying to wipe some of the mud off my face.

       She laughed again.  "You need to get your head out of the gutter." And she leaned forward, and wiped the mud off of my cheek gently.

       And it was there, right there, when I knew that I was in love. … Oh holy hell, are you crying?

      

       Oh, quit crying, it's not a big deal. And I didn't do anything about it. We got up and Apparated back to the ministry.

      

       Because I was scared. And it takes a lot for me to admit that, even now. I'd never been in love before, and it was overwhelming. It was consuming. I could barely look her in the eye afterwards because I was so afraid she'd see. It was torture working with her. It's hard to be so close to your idea of perfection and knowing that it would never be yours.

      

       I didn't tell her because all my life I was used to getting what I wanted, but this situation was different, because she had to want the same thing for it to work. I wasn't used to that.  I am the proverbial only child that is spoiled and selfish, and I was afraid of being rejected for the first time in my life.

      

        After awhile it got to be too much for me, so I started distancing myself from her. I pushed her away; I treated her like I did in the past. With a cold formality, except this time without the fighting. I could tell it bothered her, and she confronted me about it, but I brushed her off. And finally, she gave up trying to find out what was wrong, just accepted things. She did that, you know, accepted things even though she was unhappy with them.

      

       Yes, yes it was wrong and probably very unhealthy, but that's the way it was.  And I figured that would be that, you know? That I would be forever in love with someone I could not have. Eventually, I started getting used to the idea, because I just have so much strength. Then Granger started dating Adonis Makarios, that Greek prat from the Charms Department.

      

       Well, I'm glad you remember. I remember too. I remember that it drove me fucking crazy. Excuse my language. Jealously, stark raving mad jealously was another emotion I was quite unfamiliar with. I wanted to kill him. Every time I saw them flirting with each other at work I wanted to break his face. Every time she mentioned she was going on a date with him, I wanted to grab her and kiss her and tell her she was mine, all mine. But I didn't, because I figured that I was better than that… and that the relationship wouldn't last more than two weeks because Granger was so focused on her job that she wouldn't let it become serious. But Makarios was a persistent guy, and he wouldn't take no for an answer, and when they were still dating after three weeks, I lost it…

       "I'm leaving early today," She said. Her face was bright, and she was smiling very prettily.

       "Why's that?" I asked, enchanted by her smile and that dimple of hers.

       "Adonis is taking me out to dinner tonight," She said cheerfully, while tidying up things on my desk like she always did.

       My eyes narrowed and I clenched my hands into tight fists. "Dinner, huh? So I guess it's just a matter of time before he's in your pants," I spat.

       She dropped some paperwork, startled. "H-how dare you say such a thing!? You have no right to say something like that to me!  What I do with my personal life is none of your business!"

       I stood up from my chair and leaned closer, the desk the only thing that stop me from grabbing her and drowning in the vanilla that clouded all my senses. "I can say anything I fucking want to," I hissed.

       "And just what gives you the right!?"

       I didn't have a reasonable answer for that one. So I threw out another insult. "Hey, I'm just worried that when he decides to fuck you you'll get distracted from what matters. Your job."

       Her own eyes narrowed, and she smiled cruelly. "Oh? Is that all? Well what makes you think that he hasn't fucked me already?"

       It was the most vulgar thing I'd ever heard her say, and it was like a slap in the face. Unwanted images of she and Makarios together making love flashed through my head, and left me sick to the stomach.

       My shock and revulsion must have been clear on my face, because in a huff she stomped around her desk and stood only what seemed like an inch in front of me.

       "Just what is your problem, Malfoy? You've been acting like a complete bastard to me for nearly two months, and I know it's not just Adonis, because I only started dating him a month ago. So tell me, what is the problem!?"

       "I don't have to deal with this," I said, not meeting her eye, and began to move away. I couldn't breathe suddenly.

       But Granger pushed me as hard as she could against the desk and it had me thinking of all those not-so-innocent fantasies. …I really needed to get out.

       "I want answers, Malfoy! And you're not leaving until I get them! Her voice was desperate and nearly hysterical.

       And something else inside me snapped.

       "You want answers, Granger? I'll give you fucking answers. I can't stop thinking about you.  Everywhere I go, everything I see, everything I do reminds me of you. You drive me fucking crazy! I want… I can't…" My voice trailed off. I had just done a very un-Malfoy like thing. I wanted somebody to kill me right then and there.

       Granger stared at me, cute and confused. "What are you saying, Malfoy?"

       I pushed her away from me, gently, but the intent was still there. I didn't want her near me. "That I'm in love with you and I don't fucking LIKE IT! Now you know. Now you can go on your little date and you can go fuck Makarios. Go. Get out. Have a bloody wonderful time!"

       Granger just stood there, looking shocked.

       "Granger, I suggest you stop standing there looking like an idiot and go before I do something we're both gonna regret," I said, meaning every word.

       She cocked her said to the side, and the shock was gone replaced by curiousity. "Like what?" She asked, her voice so nauseatingly innocent that I knew she was trying to bait me.

       So I decided to show her just what.

       I stepped forward and kissed her. Hard. All my frustrations went into that kiss. I wanted her to know just how crazy I was because I couldn't have her.  Then Granger took me completely by surprise. She returned my kiss with the same vigor and passion. It turned out that she was just as frustrated as I was.

       So there you have it. It turned out that Granger was in love with me too. Makarios had just been a charming and pleasant distraction that got her mind off of me, she later admitted. And she never slept with him, much to my relief. I demanded that she break off all ties with him and never speak to him again.

      

        ...She didn't, anyway. She's not like that, unfortunately. She just explained everything to him, and he understood completely, because he's Greek and that makes him all mystical and wise. … Or something. Anyway, they're still good friends, and I still despise him. You can't always win.

      

       For some time, actually. You're going to have to ask her about it yourself, because that's her story to tell.

      

       Not as shocked as I thought they'd be. I guess everyone had seen what we hadn't. Dumbledore's eyes just twinkled in that way that really pisses me off. And Potter and Weasley…er, Ron just told me if I hurt her they'd kill me. Slowly.

      

       We wanted to wait until Voldemort was defeated. I told Potter to hurry it up, because I was getting impatient, and the man pulled through for me.

      

       …Oh come on, of course you can rush the defeat and death of a dark and powerful wizard. I even helped him out with it. What are you so mad at me for? I'm a hero!

      

      I only refer to her as Granger when I'm talking about her to other people, now. She's the same. Our first names have become something of a pet name to each other, which is kind of sad, now that I think about it.

      

       I'm very happy.

      

       Prepared? What is there to be prepared for? I'm getting married, not going to war.

      

 


Blog EntryPak supir taksi dan teh manis hangatMay 15, '06 1:31 AM
for everyone
menurut lo...kemungkinan apa yang paling besar terjadi seandainya pak supir itu penjahat:
a.gue diculik
b. gue nelpon polisi
   

Pak supir taksi dan teh manis hangat

(Cerita ini sudah mengalami perubahan seperlunya, nama dan waktu disamarkan)

Suatu ketika, di sebuah pusat perbelanjaan ternama ibukota - setelah mengantar seseorang pulang ke tempat dia menuntut ilmu di seberang lautan sana - gue dan seorang teman pergi membeli caramel macchiato yang dimaksudkan untuk menyuap ibuku yang udah tensi 10 karena gue pulang malem. Di kedai kopi itu terlihat seorang barista tampan yang sesaat kemudian gue kenali sebagai seorang mahasiswa FIB yang sering terlihat di Tebet naek kereta bareng tapi nggak pernah gue kenal. Agak segar bugar juga ngeliat tuh orang, apalagi di luar lagi agak gerimis2 gitu. Seandainya aja gue punya kartu prepaid buat nge-net di kedai kopi itu, pasti akan gue lakonin demi melihat si barista lebih lama lagi. But, I must go home dan menimbang kemungkinan buruk yang bisa terjadi kalo gue pulang naek bis bawa laptop, akhirnya gue dan temen gue pulang naek sebuah taksi putih vios tarif lama. Ahh..nikmat.

Untuk selanjutnya cerita akan berbentuk dialog :

Keterangan

  1. suara gue seperti biasa
  2. suara temen gue juga kayak biasa
  3. suara pak supir berat dan nadanya lambat beraksen palembang ( or at least, itu yang gue tau dari berteman ama orang palembang)

anita : “duren sawit pak“

pak supir : “lewat mana mbak ?”

mei2 : “Casablanca aja nes”

a : « casablanca aja pak, lewat belakang »

pak supir : “wah, depan mal itu ya ?...macet sekali”

gue dan mei2 liat2an…

a : « nggak papa deh pak, daripada macet di Pancoran »

so…setelah beberapa kali hampir tersesat diantara gedung2 pencakar langit, kita nongol juga di putaran bawah flyover deket menara danamon, yang ternyata macet

p.s : « wah, macet ini »

a : « kenapa ya ?”

m2 : “muter deket menara Batavia aja ?”

p.s : “mau naik (flyover) aja ?”

a : (setelah melihat keadaan) “nggak usahlah, ntar malah macet lagi…sabar aja”

p.s : “ini karena ada truk mangkal”

pas dia tunjuk truk pengangkut material yang ( keliatannya) mangkal. Secara lampu rem tuh truk nyala, jadi truk itu bukan mangkal (mohon perhatikan diksi yang dipakai bapak supir).

M2 : “itu jalan kok truk-nya”

Dan bener aja…itu truk nggak mangkal.

Tapi ya udahlah.

Nggak berapa lama kemudian, nyampe bawah flyover itu…masih macet. Dan masih megangin caramel macchiato yang wangi-nya semerbak, gue dan mei2 masih ngobrol2 aja…sampai :

p.s : “sebentar ya mbak, ambil teh manis dulu”

dan dia buka pintu dan keluar dari taksi. Gue ama mei2 Cuma bisa bengong

apa sih yang kepikiran ama lo kalo ada supir taksi yang bilang “ambil teh manis dulu” ditengah kemacetan dan turun dari taksi ?

apakah :

a. berpikir kalo dia punya abang jualan teh langganan deket situ

b. berpikir kalo dia punya cooler (atau dalam hal ini heater) di bagasi

c. berpikir kalo dia sebenernya penjahat

ketiga hal itu mungkin-mungkin aja. Tapi try to think out of the box.

Pernah nggak kepikiran ama lo kalo dia bakal :

BUKA KAP MESIN DAN NGAMBIL BUNGKUSAN ITEM BERISI TEH MANIS HANGAT ??!

Dengan serta merta, menyadari hal brilian untuk menjaga teh manis itu tetap hangat, gue dan mei2 ketawa tertahan ngakak2 ampe bengek dan hampir numpahin kopi di tangan gue.

Nggak kebayang deh ngakak sambil nahan suara itu bakal menyesakkan dada. Tapi kita berdua tahan karena takut nyakitin hati pak supir yang ,sumpah ide-nya gila2an banget, terlihat amat tulus.

Sepanjang perjalanan setelah ngelewatin flyover karet menuju mal ambassador, gue dan mei2 bener2 bengek ketawa tanpa suara. Dan gue nggak tahan…sampai gue ngeliat lampu2 mal ambassador

A : “mei, lampu !!!!”

A+m2 : “HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHIHIHIHIHIH”

M2 : “Nes, bis-nya ngetem”

A+m2 : “ahahahahahahiihohohuuohouhuohuohohouhheheheheheheiheiheiheihe”

Aduh…lo pada ngerti nggak sih kenapa gue lakuin itu ? emang apa lucu-nya sih lampu ? pikir deh. Ato emang lo pikir bis ngetem itu lucu ? kalo iya, berarti lo gila. Itu semua gue lakuin untuk jadi pengalihan supaya gue bisa ketawa ngakak beneran.

Sadis…gue nggak tau cara apa lagi supaya bisa ngakak tanpa bikin pak supir nyadar apa yang sebenernya gue ketawain (walaupun mungkin dia ngerti juga)

Tapi tuh cara lumayan jitu melepas stress sesak napas gue dengan ketawa lepas !

Ada gambar telor di salah satu spanduk operator gsm

A : “mei, TELOR !!”

A+m2 : “HAHAHAHAHAH..AHAHHH…HIHIIHIHIHI…HUHUHU..GYAKAKAK…KUKUKU…HHAAahh…

“HAHAHAHAHAH..AHAHHH…HIHIIHIHIHI…HUHUHU..GYAKAKAK…KUKUKU…HHA

A : “udah mei…sadar !!”

Dan kita berdua berusaha diem…paling nggak, nggak ngakak2 kayak cewek nggak bermartabat. Sumpah, ampe deket tebet gue dan me2 masih ngakak tanpa suara. Dan baru reda setelah ngelewatin flyover kampung melayu.

A : “hoh, gila ya…nggak bener banget kite. Udahan deh…eh, ada roti, mao mei ?”

M2 : “boleh deh”

Dan gue kasih sepotong buat mei2…masih ada sepotong

A : “pak, mao roti pak ?”

M2 : “iya pak, lumayan buat cemilan”

p. s : “terimakasih”

terimakasih gitu deh..tau kan lo, mungkin disangka gue Cuma basa-basi doang

m2 : “ini pak, saya juga makan kok”

sambil nyodorin roti dalam plaastik itu (nggak happening karena nggak ditaro di kap mobil..hihi) tapi kayaknya nggak keliatan ama pak supir

hening sesaat…

p.s : “…masih banyak nggak… ?”

a+m2 : ( tawa tanpa suara : HAHAHAHAHDHDGIGIIDIDIFIFIFIHEHEHHUHUHUKK)

Bukannya nge-cengin pak supir ( paling nggak gue nggak beermaksud begitu), tapi cara dia jawab sekaligus nanya itu yang lucu banget…gue berasa berhadapan dengan orang jujur dari desa di buku2 bahasa Indonesia deh!

Dan kejadian lampu, bis ngetem sampe yang teranyar : telor. Terulang lagi

Setelah hampeer sesorean bingung mikirin sesuatu, ketawa puas kayak itu bikin seger banget.

Seru abis…sampai rumah dengan selamat, terimakasih pada pak supir. Dirumah nggak dimarahin, terimakasih pada caramel macchiato. Tidur yang nyenyak dimalam hari, terimakasih pada semua. Hal-hal kayak gini yang bikin kita tetep manusiawi. Orang-orang dengan ide brilian kayak pak supir itu-lah yang bikin orang-orang stress kayak gue bisa bertahan hidup.

Terkadang, gue pikir…masalah kita sebenernya bisa selesai hanya dengan segelas teh manis hangat, tapi mungkin juga nggak

Segala hal indah di dunia ini Cuma ada untuk bikin kita tetap bersyukur

Dan, bahkan segala hal buruk di dunia ini Cuma diadain untuk bikin kita MAKIN bersyukur.

Coz, we stay sober facing all that
