Dede sekarang lagi ngapain ya?
Lagi tidur pastinya. I just woke up de, tapi udah mandi pagi. Now I am having banana muffin and tongtji tea with no sugar as my breakfast. Abis ini mau kekampus nyerahin tugas, terus belajar di perpus ampe oon...final is not over yet.
Sekarang di Indonesia udah jam 2 pagi. Deg degan de? ya pastilah...wong dari sebulan kemarin bawaannya degdegan mulu kalau inget tomorrow occassion. katanya tempat tidurnya udah ganti? Terus yang dulu dikemanain? Inget jaman dulu waktu suka ke genjink dan numpang tidur, padahal masih pake jeans kotor abis dari kampus. Dan kamu sama joroknya kayak otty..ikutan tidur pake jeans yang baru abis dipake dari depok hihihi..
Si dede dear,
udah lama banget kita temenen, almost eight years! Kalau anak udah bisa ngapain aja tuh de? udah kelas 3 sd, pinter matematika, dan udah bisa naik angkot sendiri (lho ngaco). Dulu awal kita temenan waktu pas ospek kan?lagi ada acara rohis gitu, terus sama sama mewek (wah gile malu bgt), you offered me a tissue, terus cerita2 kalau ternyata you cried more because you miss your mom (that was your first time away from your mom for quite a long time) rather than touched by the Rasulullah story at that time (hihihi).
And from that our friendship flows, until now. Kemana mana berdua, ke kelas, ke kansas, ke mushola gedung 8 (apa 9, lupa), ke balsem (waktu masih accesible dan belom tertutup semak semak setinggi manusia), ke mesjid UI, ke fisip kalau ada jualan buku bekas, nonton teater di sastra, nonton kampanye pemilihan ketua senat, kabur waktu IKMI mau rapat (ketauaannn deeeh), makan batagor di bawah pohon bambu, ke halte perpus pusat makan kwetiau dan nasi goreng, ke PPB di Salemba, ke perpusnya sambil ngelewatin fak kedokteran (sengaja, ganjen ya), makan bakso fisip yang dikiittt banget, cuma enaaaak banget (curiga, msg tuh), naik bajaj dari cikini ke salemba(siomay cikini inget gak?), naik bajaj dari cikini ke menteng. Terus barengan di rapat rapat DLH, jalan jalan DLH kegunung2 ntah berantah, rapat2 KOPMA, jalan2 KOPMA, dan makan di hoka hoka bento. Terus terahir kita jaman kuliah, lagi seneng2nya makan di fasilkom.
Ah memorinya gak keitung de. Tapi kok ya include makanan semua?
Bener kata Aldy, mon oncle, kita udah kayak laler pasar, kemana mana berdua. Well, of course selain ditambah barisan anak anak lain like Ita, iin, uti, pujay dan segerombolan anak2 jurusan lain, karena kita hubungannya banyak lintas jurusan daripada di dalam kelompok anak jurusan kita.
Terus..lama lama formasi nambah. Ada si ndut. Waktu itu dia belum gendut dan tampangnya masih kayak Aldy bragy (haa Juan jgn suruh baca ini ntar dia geer beraatt). I don't mind ada orang lain waktu itu diantara kita, soalnya Juan is smart, ngobrolnya asik, he likes the same kind of music and book as I do and he never nyela me heheheh. Dan pastinya, bisa di tumpangin naik uki sampai lenteng. Inget the way you make me closer to Juan? minjemin kaset musikalisasi puisi Sapardi Djoko Damono punya Juan, after you knew that I am all crazy about bapak dean kita waktu itu (well, in a good way lho).
You told me that he is a lomantis guy. He brings you flower, takes you dinner to good places, sends you poems, makes you dinner, makes you read good books, rationalizes you, surprises you now and then, lets you cry when you want to cry, and the most important thing is he loves you just the way you are.
Basically I was there, watching you and Juju became a couple. I was there to hear and watch what happened to you guys. I was there to witness all ups and downs happened between both of you. And I am glad that all these good and not-so-good times end happily.
Tommorow, you and Juju will make a promise, in front of Allah, to become husband and wife. With all the good times, bad times, responsibility, consequences and challenges that may come between you guys. I know there are things you want to settle, things you want to compromise in your future life, but I assure you, everything will be ok. Good things need sacrifices. Both of you need to do it. So honey, insya Allah you make the right choice, despite of all the hardship you faced before.
Of course I am sad I cannot be with you at this very important moment. Moreover , we have always been talking about your wedding since a long time ago. Do you remember that I already told akang years ago that he has to to reserve his time whenever it will be, so he can come with me to your wedding? I wish that happened.
I remember I promised to be there, but I am so sorry dear, I cannot make it. Some things aren't meant to be compromised and all I can do here is acting like an adult, facing it wisely and with maturity. I also wish that there will be no change between the three of us (well, four if you want to include kang wahyu), that we will always be the bestest buddy, in good and in crime. I love you both.
I miss you. I want to be there. I want. I wish.
Honey dear, selamat ya. Semoga cita cita kalian untuk menggenapi separuh dien, membentuk keluarga yang sakinah mawaddah warrahmah terlaksana, semoga kalian berdua bisa melayari lautan hidup dalam perahu yang sama, dengan tujuan dan cita cita yang sama. Jangan takut kalau nanti ada gejolak, sedikit badai atau hujan. Itu biasa. The most important thing that you have each other to hold your hands, and be sure that you both will find love everytime you see each other's eyes. Until the end of time.
Insya Allah.
