Unpredictable Love of My Life
Born 1990, M, from Sragen, IndonesiaAn ordinary boy; brown-skinned with body weight no more than 50, 167 in height, black short hair that looked like a ball with spikes; nothing special about Febri, third semester university student.
The first impression that you see from him would be his small body. “Is this boy having a serious illness?” or “doesn’t he eat properly?” are some of the questions which would pop out in your mind when you see him.
Traveling from home to the campus riding a motorcycle through around 20 miles in distance does not make his will to study fade away. However, occasionally, when his body reaches its limit, he won’t force himself to go.
He is so skinny not because of using drugs or something alike, but he often stays up until past midnight. It is just his habit and he is having a difficult time trying to go to bed early. He is also an active smoker, but lately he is struggling to reduce the intensity and trying to stop smoking.
Having a small body makes him a little bit troubled getting a girlfriend. Because with his small body, girls won’t find him attractive. He is hoping that someone, somewhere, could be his girlfriend. Someone that could accept him just the way he is. This is a story about his love life.
It was an ordinary day, going to campus in the morning with a friend of mine whose name is Lavenia. However, there was something different today. It was when Lavenia had been asked by a lecturer to be a singer in the inaugural lecture. I came along with her to meet the lecturer. When I walked with her, it was the first moment in a year that I just realized that she is actually charming in every way. That was the first time I felt something had struck my heart. Before I knew it, I was having a crush on her.
Each day passed with my feelings towards her getting deeper and deeper. Without knowing that I had a crush on her, I kept pretending that there was nothing going on inside my heart every time I saw her. We just acted as we used to be, as if we were brother and sister, and care for each other. My mind said to let her go because it is impossible for us to be together, but my heart didsn’t listen. Therefore, I decided to follow what my heart wants.
It was the day before the inaugural lecture and she was having a practice. That night, I want to ask her out to have dinner together with some friends, but knowing that she is having a singing practice, I’m a little bit disappointed. In the end, I went out with my friends. When we were about to eat, suddenly there was a text message from her, asking me where I am.
”Where are you?”
“I’m with my friends, getting a dinner. Wanna come with us?”
“Where to?”
“In Solobaru, I could pick you up at campus and come here together.”
“I’m having a practice right now, but I think I will finish very soon.”
“Okay, I will wait for you.”
So I decided to wait along with my friends, when I suddenly remembered I want to treat her a dinner. I asked my friends if they wanted to come with me to buy a pizza and eat it together, they were agreeing and so I told Lavenia about this.
“Hey, how about I buy a pizza and we eat it together? It’s my treat.”
“Sounds nice, the store still open?”
“It should be, because it’s still 9 pm. Just wait for me there while I buy the pizza.”
“Okay.”
I went to buy the pizza and then I went to campus to pick her up. While on our way to my friend’s house to eat the pizza, I asked her why she finished so soon. Because when I picked her up, I can still hear music playing.
“I was disappointed in there.” She said to me.
“Why?”
“I know that my voice is not as good as the other singers, but I feel like they don’t appreciate me at all.
When the others were singing they applauded them and gave them some tips about how to sing the songs better, but not me. I’m ill feeling. I decided not to sing in the inaugural lecture tomorrow.”
”Don’t be disheartened, they don’t know how beautiful your voice is because they only listen to your voice using their ears. For me, it’s different. I know that your voice is beautiful, because I listen with my heart.” I said that while laughing, pretending to tell a joke to cheer her up.
When we arrived at my friend’s house, she is back to her normal self. I’m glad that what I’ve said to her could comfort her.
We ate the pizza together until the time to go to home because it’s already so late. I gave her a ride to her grandmother’s house while we talked about how good the pizza was along the way.
The next day, I decided to make what I said yesterday as a status on my facebook.
Don’t be disheartened, they don’t know how beautiful your voice is because they listen to your voice using their ears. For me, it’s different. I know that your voice is beautiful, because I listen with my heart.
I actually said that with all my heart…but pretending to tell a joke. That was the status I made and because of the status, she knows that I have a feeling towards her.
The next day, at the inaugural lecture, after she knows about my feeling from reading my status, she started to act weird. I feel like she started to keep a distance with me. The next day, it’s getting worse. The relationship between us became so distant each passing day. Until one day, I’m not talking with her at all. Even when we see each other when we were together with our friends, we acted as if we didn’t know each other. That day, was the day when I hurt the most. It’s like my heart being stabbed with a knife. In my mind, I know that I cannot keep this up. If I keep on insisting, I’m sure I will lose one of my best friends, no, my sister.
After a long night full of pain and thoughts, I decided to clear this matter by talking to her directly. I texted her to meet me because there was something I wanted to say to her as well as I want to apologize to her.
“I’m sorry Lavenia.”
”Why?”
”You probably already know it. I wanna say I’m sorry that I accidentally fell in love with you. I know that this will not work, but still, I insisted to do it.”
”It’s okay, me too, I’m sorry I can’t love you. I think of you as my older brother, no more than that. I’m so sorry.”
”It’s not your fault, I’m the one to blame. I shouldn’t do this. I didn’t plan this to happen.”
“You silly, you can’t plan who you are falling in love with.”
”Hahaha..you’re right. I guess this is it. I will erase my feelings towards you except the love and care of an older brother. I hope we can be a brother and sister like we used to be.”
”Of course we can. You will still love me as my older brother and I will love you as your little sister.”
“Thank you for your understanding. *hugs*"
That was when we went back to our old-self, became a brother and sister like we used to be. Until now, we are having good time together each day. Keeping our relationship so it won’t be broken. I hope this relationship will last. I don’t want to lose her. She’s a precious person in my life. I’m willing to do anything to keep this relationship and to keep her happy.
