Cerpen 10 Pesan Singkat Pertama



Rabu, 7 November 2012, mungkin saat itu aku merasakan kebahagiaan yang sangat-sangat. Bagaimana tidak? hari itu adalah pertama kalinya dimana aku mengirimkan pesan elektronik atau sms pada seorang laki-laki yang aku sukai sejak beberapa bulan yang lalu. Awalnya dia membalas dengan ketus hampir membuat aku sedikit kecewa, tapi detik berganti menit dan pesan-pesan ketusnya menjadi pesan yang ramah. Sebetulnya aku tahu dia itu tipe laki-laki yang terbilang cuek, sangat cuek menurutku, tapi entah mengapa aku suka.

Pertama aku perkenalkan namaku, aku kira dia sudah tahu aku karena kita sering berpapasan, tapi salah, dia sama sekali tak mengenalku. Aku langsung to the point kalau aku ingin berkenalan dan berteman sama dia, dan dengan pesannya yang aku pastikan itu pesan ramah dia mengiyakan. Saat itu aku bahagia benar-benar bahagia, aku senyum-senyum sendiri sambil memeluk hapeku. Dia menyuruhku untuk gabung di media sosialnya, ya tentu sudah aku lakukan beberapa hari yang lalu.

Mati-matian aku belajar media sosial yang satu ini (twitter) demi mendapat berita-berita tentang dia, tanya sana sini cara menjalankannya dan lain-lain. Untuk hari itu, 10 pesan singkat yang aku terima dari dia. 10 pesan singkat yang membuatku sangat bahagia. 10 pesan singkat untuk awal perjalananku.

Terima kasih, terima kasih untuk saat itu Rabu, 7 November 2012. Saat ini Kamis, 7 November 2013 ingin sekali aku kembali di masa itu, dimana kita mulai dekat, dimana kamu belum tahu aku, dimana kamu membalas pesan singkat dengan ramah, dimana saat itu awal dariku. Ingin sekali di 7 November 2013 ini aku mendapat 10 pesan singkat kebahagiaan itu, tapi aku tahu sekarang aku sudah jauh amat jauh. Sangat tidak mungkin aku mendapat pesan singkat itu. Sejenak menatap photo yang menghiasi layar hapeku, berbicara 'sore, ni aku isti, pa kbar?' pertama kali pesan singkat yang aku kirimkan.

The Painting of Destiny

"Are you sure of this, Navan?" The old pirate stared at King Mannas' chief merchant. However, his bright emerald green eyes sparkled with laughter. "The information came from Daoud, one of my former crew members, when I was ravaging the coastal villages of Vyrone." Navan smiled at the expression crossing Gerrod's face, whose family had fled from one of these villages. The Iron Falcon was a legend and parents had always used the threat of its crew and its flaming-haired captain to scare naughty children into sleeping and behaving differently. Gerrod quickly recovered and smiled. "Then he must be a man to be trusted, indeed." "Ah!" cried Navan. "Daoud will take the coin from the mouth of a dead man while it is still warm. I trust him only because he knows the fate of him who lies to me." I may have made him captain when I decided to infiltrate King Mannas' court, but he still knows who is in charge. "We must tell ...
