MAAF

Menyambut lebaran, gue mengirim berbagai SMS maaf, kecuali kepada mereka.

Maaf ya. Gue males minta maaf.

Boong ding. Gue gak males. Hanya takut. Takut gak dimaafin.

Setidaknya ada 6 nama yang mengingatkan gue selalu kalau gue bukan orang baik. Jadi setiap kali gue ngerasa diperlakukan gak adil, 6 nama ini akan mencegah gue merasa dizalimi.

Sesama orang berdosa dilarang saling menghakimi.

Nursita Wulansari

Temen SMP gue. Target bulan-bulanan kelas karena suatu hari dia mengaku-ngaku cucu presiden. Mungkin dia mencoba melucu. Tapi gak lucu. The 13 years old me thought that it won’t hurt her feeling to make fun of her cause everyone else did. She’s so used to it.

But I was the worst. Dia nangis. Bukannya minta maaf, gue malah defensive dengan niruin dia ‘nangis’... ngenyek. What a bitch.

Ayu

For not forgiving her. For being a better judge than a better friend in times of her weaknesses.

Cindy

Not for writing her story, but for not writing her story. My first book is a mix of fiction, reality, and childish revenge for her not writing me more often. It gets people confused between what is real and what is not.

Niki

Niki terpilih jadi ketua umum LFM. He is a nice guy and all, but I thought the only reason he was elected was that he was a Moslem, unlike the other candidate whom I think will make a better leader.

I was devastated. Katanya keluarga. Ujung-ujungnya agama.

Niki menawarkan gue menjadi salah satu manager di kabinet dia. Walaupun gue lagi ‘the fly’ mode on (terpuruk dalam benci dan frustasi kala sepi) tawaran Niki gue terima tanpa niat baik. Rencana gue: I do my best, outdo the other managers (all Moslem boys), and wait for the moment they realized their primitive decision electing him based on his religion.

Setahun kemudian, it was supposed to be my moment of glory. LPJ Niki ditolak.

I was even more devastated.

Mami

Paginya mami gue marahin karena ngilangin cable data I pod. Siangnya gue dimasakin ikan teri sambel.

And all other endless Malin Kundang story.

Papi

Papi teriak-teriak nyuruh gue bawa payung. Pura-pura gak denger, gue masuk mobil. Papi cemberut.

Dasar papi. Makin tua makin rewel.

Malemnya gue batuk-batuk. Papi dateng bawa makan malam dan 4 tablet.

Pas gue mau cuci piring, papi rewel ngomel-ngomel kalau ntar gue bakal tambah sakit.

Malam itu, papi rewel yang cuci piring.

Markus

Ich liebe dich nicht.
