The Journey of Dreamers

I Want

" NANA !"

I looked back to find the person who called me.

" Na, where are you going ?" Tiva approached me with a charming smile.

'the end of his smile is loh, the sweetness.'

" Woiiiiiii, daydreaming mulu." Tiva has my daydreams.

" Hehe, daydream you about it."

"I feel special." Tiva smiled happily.

" You are special."

"Everyone's special Nana Vi."

" Yes, everyone is special in the eyes of the right person." I looked at Tiva who still maintained his sweet smile.

" Our own eyes." I pointed my eyes.

"Haha…. Could be you." Tiva laughs.

" In my eyes you are special." Tiva looks at me.

"Means your eyes are right too."

"Yahhhh. whose eyes dong. Tinyoo." Tiva pointed at his eyes.

"Your eyes are beautiful, shining and radiating rays of affection."

"Ehh, I'm salting this." Tiva hid his face.

" Seriously, not just your eyes. The shape of your face, your lips, your nose, your hair, your body is beautiful. People won't get tired of seeing you Tinyo." I watched Tiva from head to toe.

" Ah done. Uh where are we going. Talk from earlier until we don't realize we've come a long way." Tiva looked around.

" I was going to the library. Why even stray into people's classes." I saw a sign in front of the class that was next to us.

" Jaudah, let's go to the perpus." Tiva pulled my hand.

" Na, get me that book dong." Tiva pointed to a book on one of the library shelves.

I tiptoed to take it. But my height is not supportive either.

" No nyampe." I looked at Tiva.

" I can't either." Tiva tiptoes.

" What is dong ?" Tiva pouting.

" Well what else, I'm not tall enough to take it."

" Well, I want to read that book." Tiva breathed.

My gaze was on a boy who had appeared from behind a shelf behind us. He looked upset and approached us.

" I'm sorry."

" Why are you guys so noisy ?"

" We can't get the book." I pointed to the book that Tiva wanted to take.

The boy raised his head staring at the book I was pointing at.

" This is ?" He took the book.

" Yes." Yeah."

" This take. Don't be noisy anymore." He handed me the book and left.

" It's Nyo." I gave the book to Tiva.

" Thank you." Tiva took the book.

" Why thank you to me. Who took the boy."

"But he left before I could thank you." Tiva looked towards the boy walking earlier.

" Jaudah, let's find a seat." I walked to find a chair in the library.

" That's there." Tiva pointed at a long chair by the window.

" Nana you haven't told me what you're thinking."

I closed the book I was reading and looked out the window.

" To be a writer who inspires many." I smile.

" A writer ? The author of the book ?"

" Yes, writer. A writer of novels that many people read."

" There should be a lot of imagination. The novel is usually imaginary."

" Hummm, novel. I want to be an author who changes people's views on novels. Novels in people's eyes are usually about romance. Wild life of young people. Novels in the eyes of people are not good to read by children. The novel in people's eyes is just a thick storybook."

"But not everyone is aware that the novel contains life lessons. The novel is a fun learning tool. Novels are not just for adults. The novel is for everyone. Novels increase the desire to read. Novels, indirectly provide useful advice. Unfortunately, many novels are found only about romance, infidelity, betrayal, and immoral acts. I don't know if the author is targeting adult readers, or how, whereas children also like to read and have a lot of free time to read than adults. I do not understand what is in the minds of writers who really like to make works that there are things that children should not know. And that is what gives rise to the adult thinking that the novel is not suitable for children. They forbid their children to read novels. So that children are not affected by the behavior of characters in the novel."

"That's why. My work in the future will not be directed only to adults. My work will be made as a means of educating people. My work will be done to inspire people. Not just to entertain but to motivate."

" Well, good intentions. I look forward to your book." Tiva clapped his hand.

" Please pray that one day my book will be widely circulated." I laugh.

" certain. Hope you get the best of it going forward."

" Okay, we'll stay here or we'll go to class. The break is over soon."

I stared at the clock on the library wall.

" Come to class." Tiva stood up and carried the book he had read.
