Episode 29 - Last Stop (TAMAT)
It's been a week since I knew Brian was gone forever. It felt like there was still a feeling of sorrow enveloping my heart, as if it still could not let him leave me this fast.
I know that even though He's still here, we can't spend our lives together like a couple. But that doesn't mean I don't love it. She was one of the people I loved, just as I considered Tania, Fanie, and Erika.
I also felt a little awkward when Desta encouraged me, so that I would no longer be sad. “Hhh.”
“Yeah, also!” Erika said satisfied, after we managed to travel for hours to Ora Island.
“Good wit!” Excited when I look around. The shady and beautiful atmosphere made me feel comfortable here, as if it helped me forget a little bit of my sadness.
“Sure dong! This is a Dest place. Ah I mean, Meldivesnya Indonesia.”He was clearly laughing nervously.
“Oh yes Er, when did Desta return from Aussie?”
“Lack of knowing Gie, but it's usual that if there is a complicated office business it can be more than two weeks he went.”
I nodded in understanding, although it felt a little disappointed that I could not come here with Desta.
“That way again want no event yes Er!” I continued when I saw a lot of cardboard piled around the bridge.
Erika nodded. “Yaps! That's why I brought you here.”
“Oh yes? What event is it?” I was curious, considering that this is not the holiday season.
“Proposy three hours more.” The reply smiled mysteriously.
♥♥♥♥
My work in Australia was done a few days ago. I immediately returned to Indonesia as soon as possible and immediately came to Ora Beach in order to draw up a long-delayed plan with various events.
Although at first the fear of bad events will happen again. But Erika made sure that Anggie would be fine, therefore her trip here was accompanied by my sister.
The reason I chose to hold a special event here is not only because it is one of the beautiful attractions in Indonesia, but also because Anggie really likes the beach.
Along the side of the bridge I have installed a heart-shaped white candle with the engraving of the name Anggie. Of course I prepared a special candle that would not die even in the wind, then along the bridge I also sprinkled white roses.
Surely this kind of event can not be done when the holiday season because visitors are crowded.
“Gue is on the beach right of the bridge.” Erika replied to Anggie who called her. “Iya road just follow the candle, will definitely meet kok.”
Anggie turned off the phone and walked unsuspecting. Precisely a sense of nervousness makes me hot cold, even though the wind is blowing hard.
“Hh. First and last experience I hope all goes well.” Hope in my heart.
I started touching piano keys to play the song Since I Found You. Not without reason I chose that song. Although the song is old, it has a deep meaning.
“I think of you in everything that I do
To be with you what ever it takes i’ do
Cause you my love, you all my heart desires
You’ve lighten up my live forever i’m live
Since I found you my world sees so brand new
You’ve show the love I never knew
Your presence is what my whole life through
Since I found you my life begin so new
Now who needs a dream when there is you
All of my dream came true
Since I found you
Your love shines bright
Through all the corners of my heart
Maybe you’re my dearest heart
I give you all I have my heart, my soul, my life
My destiny is you
Forever true ...
I’m so in love with you
Since I found you my world sees so brand new
You’ve show the love I never knew
Your presence is what my whole life thourgh
Since I found you my life begin so new
Now who needs a dream when there is you
All of my dream came true
Since I found you
My heart forever true ...
In love with you.”
“When are you home?” Ask surprised.
I stood up and smiled welcoming his arrival, not forgetting to bring three balloons inscribed with the words “Will” on a white balloon, “You” on a pink balloon, and “Marry Me?” On the dark red balloon to him.
I deliberately chose the three colors, because I believe the three colors symbolize love. White means pure love, pink as a symbol of sincerity, and deep red as proof that my whole life is only for Anggie.
“Will you marry me?” I knelt before him by giving the three balloons under which there was a ring.
I saw Anggie quietly fixated. So that makes me, dare to touch his hand. “I don't want the most shining star in the sky. I only want one star whose light is not so bright.” I said while pointing at the not so bright star in the sky. “But the starlight is able to shine on me. Unlike the brightest star, whose light shines on everyone. Because I want you to be mine the only.” I looked deeply into Anggie's eyes.
"You sure?”
“Tentu” Reply. “There is no reason not to be sure about committing to the person I love the most.
There is nothing that makes me regret knowing you. Everything we've been through, makes me more aware. I need you in my life.”
Anggie smiled and asked me to stand up.
marry me.
I took a breath. And back to singing. This time it was a more fun song.
“It's a beautiful night
We are looking for something dumb to do
Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you
Is it the look in your eyes
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby
I think I wanna marry you
Well I know this little chapel on the boulevard we can go
No one will know
Come on girl
Who cares if we're trashed got a pocket full of cash we can blow
Shots of patron, and it's on girl.”
“Don't say no, no, no, no-no
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah.” Singing Erika, Fanie, Nino, Tristan, Eriko, and Tania, followed me.
“And we'll go, go, go, go-go
If you're ready, like I'm ready.
Cause it's a beautiful night, man,
We are looking for something dumb to do
Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you
I'll go get a ring let the choir bells sing like oooh,
So whatcha wanna do? Let's just run girl
If we wake up and you wanna break up that's cool
No, I won't blame you
It was fun girl.”
“Don't say no, no, no, no-no
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah.” Singers Erika, Fanie, Nino, Trisan, Eriko, and Tania are more excited than ever.
“And we'll go, go, go, go-go
If you're ready, like I'm ready
Cause it's a beautiful night, man,
We are looking for something dumb to do
Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you
Just say I do, please,
Tell me right now baby,
Tell me right now baby
Cause it's a beautiful night, man,
We are looking for something dumb to do
Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I want marry you.”
“So..” I said after I finished singing. “Will you, be the wife of Desta Hadi Setiawan?”
I could see Anggie nod with a big smile on his lips.
Tania and Eriko help Erika, who looks busy sprinkling colorful pieces of paper into the air. Followed by Nino and Tristan who light fireworks into the air.
Me and Anggie smiled looking at our friend and brother who started to move away and let us both. I took off the ring, which had been tied to a balloon ever since. And I immediately put it on Anggie's ring finger, and she responded by hugging me.
Although my life is not like a book, I can easily flip it to the end of the story. But I am sure love can find its way back.
Because I know. If life were easy, I wouldn't know the name of trying. If life were easy, there would be no more crying and laughter. Because life is not smooth though, there are still many people who waste people around him. Surely if life were easy, I wouldn't know what it's like to be happy, having succeeded
through all the challenges of my life's journey, and I won't smile for the happiness I get.
