Jakarta - Semarang is not THAT far, Dev!

Jakarta, Juli 2016.
Dear Om,

First of all I want to say Happy 45th Birthday to you, the Father of my beloved friend... Devina! I wish nothing but the best for you, Sir. May Allah gives you a healthy life with His joys and blessings. I know we haven't got a chance to meet in person, yet, but I've heard a lot about you while Devina and I were still in high school. Don't worry, Devina told me about your kindness, though.

Second, as we may in the spirit of holy month, I will say happy ied mubarak 1437 H to you, sir! May Allah forgives all of our sins and gives us His blessings. Let's keep the spirit until next ramadhan, and hopefully we'll meet next year.

Your daughter, Devina, is a wonderful young lady. She's one of my favorite during the high school. I've seen her laugh, cry, angry, and most of it... She was busy being her self, a true freaking (imaginary) Mrs. Bieber. You're lucky to have her as your daughter because you would never get a young lady like her for the second time, right?


Entah sudah berapa kali saya menulis tentangnya di blog ini, tetapi Devina adalah sosok yang mampu menginspirasi saya (termasuk gurauan kami yang terkadang nyeleneh dan terlalu bermimpi). Devina and I have a lot of similarities such as... We're too passionate to reach our dreams, she wants to be Selena Gomez and I want to be Audrey Hepburn. Both of us adore Dian Sastro, Chelsea Islan, and Maudy Ayunda since we were still using putih-abu uniform. I think... Up until now, both of us still determine to be a UNICEF or UN ambassador (am I right, Dev?)

Many people laughs at our dreams, but we hold on to this...

Devina really misses you, Om, apalagi sekarang dia kuliah di Semarang. She misses watching soccer with you, I think she's really really Daddy's little girl ya, Om? She said you were the one who taught her about the offside rule, am I right? On your special day, she asked me to write something special for you because she's too shy to say it directly to you. Well I hope, she will be in teary eyes for reading this.

As her friend, who being left by her and who also lives in Jakarta, I'm missing her as much as you do, sir! Of course we had plans to meet up, but eventually it never happened. But still, though we never meet since like almost a year, she's still my beloved unforgettable friend.

Well let's say Jakarta - Semarang is not as far as we know! It's much better than Jakarta - China, right? Argh, too many LDR-an with my high school friends and it sucks! (This is how I cheer my self when I'm missing my high school friends. Unfortunately, there is one friend who's in Germany now and I'm missing her freaking bad.)


*Ps to Devina: when will you come to Jakarta? Let me finisih my test first so we can meet up and ngehitz together, okay!? I miss being 'oh so whatever' with you! I miss going to windowshop with you! Errr..... btw, Can you (in any chance) bring me wingko babat, Dev? It's my favorite, gosh, I'm already imagining to eat it while I write this post. :(

And also, please let's hope that my Momma will allow me to traveling to Semarang all by my self, ya.. you must be in Semarang when the time is right (or at least we'll go from Jakarta together) so we can stay in your kosan, perhaps? (Semakin hemat semakin oke, lol). Then, we should go to Lawang Sewu, ya, because I'd never go there and curious enough to go. Hehehe.

See, terlalu niat bikin ini.. sampe bongkar gallery cari foto kita. Maaf yang di hp cuma beberapa, sisanya di pc semua and I'm too lazy to open it jam segini. Xoxo.

Sincerly yours,
Nita Indra S.

Keputusan Besar

Just like that. We finally decided that we'll go on our own way. :) Lega. Campur aduk. Deg-degan. Nggak ada perasaan sedih ataupun marah. Tapi, aku memang penasaran.. apakah aku dan pasanganku bisa memulai hidup sendiri tanpa kehadiran satu sama lain? Pasanganku saat ini memang banyak membawa pelajaran hidup. Dia membuatku menjadi lebih melihat dunia, lebih luwes, lebih santai, bisa tertawa daripada pusing memikirkan berbagai hal, dan bisa beristirahat sejenak. Sifat negatifnya pun banyak sekali, yang melatar belakangi aku memikirkan kembali hubungan ini. Rasanya, sudah cukup kami mendapatkan pelajaran masing-masing. Kami sama-sama mengakui, kami tidak bisa melihat masa depan kami secara bersama. Kami saat ini hanya menjalani rutinitas yang sudah terbiasa karena terbentuk bertahun-tahun. Kedua anak kami layak mendapatkan cinta yang utuh sebagai keluarga, namun kami tau kami tidak akan bisa memberikannya jika tetap bersama. Kami sama-sama berhak mendapatkan cinta yang utuh, hati yan...

Hey, Stranger

The first time I met you, I was paralyzed by your charm. Hypnotized and feeling warm. Then sat beside you, didn't know who you were. We were stranger back then. Your dazzling eyes knocked me down, that you did. I didn't even know what was it. It was something new for me to feel. You were always there whenever and wherever I was. Though it was just in a mind of mine. Hey, stranger, what have you done? Months passed earlier than I thought. Weird... cause God brought you to my life. Ten hours a day though I felt it wasn't enough. Everyday was like a real fairy tale, that it was. Hey, stranger, did you even remember how we were here? The first time I met you, I knew what kind of person you were. Cold hearted with guts, that you were. This feeling was true and pure. I was right because I got hurt. But I'd stay not retreat. Autumn and winter had passed. Left us with spring and new hopes. Hey, stranger, didn't you see that?

Mama ❤️

"You have to keep going with him. Think about your children," they said. "You were the victim of a broken home child. Don't let it happen to your kids," they said. Meanwhile, my mama: "Nita,⁩ gimana kabarnya semua..? Mama akan laporkan KDRT klu dia tidak bisa menepati janjinya ke mama utk menjaga baik² Nita, Hagia, Melodie. Nita hrs lawan KDRT ya, dan selalu lindungi dg penuh kasih sayang Hagia dan Melodie ya sayaang.. 😇🤗🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💖" Like, she always texts me like that. She said I need to leave him as soon as he hit me or my children. I think it's already in her instinct. I don't tell my mama that we fight, hit each other, and I have bruises because of him. She would kill him. Although I'm already a mother, I'm still her daughter. When I find a better man, who loves me deeply, who's soft and kind, she will let her guard down because she knows I'll be in the right hand. I realize now, I love my life so much. And, I won't...

I think my boss is right. I forgot to taking care of myself. I can't balancing my life as a mother, an employee, and a person. I'm overwhelmed. I'm tired. I'm exhausted It's time for me to take a rest. I will keep going, but, first, I need to put myself together again. Terbentur, terbentur, terbentur... terbentuk.

Sampul Buku dan Lembarannya

Boleh nggak saya memohon satu hal? Cukup sederhana. Kebanyakan dari kalian hanya memandang sampul sebuah buku. Jika sampul itu berupa kulit, kalian akan langsung mengambilnya. Kalau buku itu hanyalah buku usang, entah siapa yang akan mengambilnya. Disini bukan tentang menilai buku dari sampulnya. Tapi tentang siapa yang akan mengambil buku itu. Munafik memang, kalau kita mengaku tidak melihat orang dari penampilan. Tapi entah kenapa saya letih dengan semua itu. Letih dengan tipuan paling sederhana. Saya ingin kalian tetap menatap saya dalam keadaan terburuk, terjelek. Bukan dalam keadaan sebaliknya. Apa terkesan saya sombong? Tidak, bukan itu maksudnya. Saya hanya ingin kalian membuka buku itu setelah melihat sampulnya. Saya bukan buku bersampul kulit. Saya hanya buku biasa. Lembarannya putih, polos, tanpa coretan. Saya butuh kalian yang dapat mengisi lembaran-lembaran ini, bukan hanya menggeletakkan buku ini ke lemari hingga usang.
