is one of applied linguistics to evaluation a spoken or written to make us
answer some event or language with different asnwer or different pointview.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

from us!” Haruhiro warned as he circled behind the kobold foreman Mogzo had
engaged, looking for an opening to exploit.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Not that it was hard to find.&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em style=&quot;font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;There! Again now!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;The elder kobold’s defense was full of
holes. He could easily take it down. Haruhiro watched as the elder’s tail
swiftly swished all around, but he had grasped the pattern of its movements
now.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;If Mogzo attacked in ‘A’ way, then
it would react with ‘B’, then do ‘C’ next. And if not ‘C’, then it would do ‘D’
for sure. Haruhiro was able to predict its movements. He was confident he could
finish it quickly with either [BACKSTAB] or [WIDOW MAKER].&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;But he didn’t close in. He didn’t
want to finish it. Simply killing it was not his goal.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;He wanted the&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong style=&quot;font-style: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;line&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;to appear for him. That hazy,
indistinct&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong style=&quot;font-style: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;line&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;that glowed like fire. He wanted to be
able to see it. Master Barbara of the Thieves Guild had once told him, “The&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong style=&quot;font-style: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;line&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;that you see—feel, perhaps is a better
way to describe it—appears once or twice to anyone who’s accumulated enough
experience.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;She had also said, “It’s not like
we can will it to appear by concentrating hard or anything.” And though she
told him, “That’s not a bad sign,” she also warned him. “But don’t be mistaken.
It’s not anything special.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;It appears&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em style=&quot;font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;once or twice&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;to anyone who’s accumulated enough
experience. But it had appeared more than once or twice for Haruhiro. And it
had appeared for him bright and distinct when he killed Deathpatch. If the&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong style=&quot;font-style: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;line&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;hadn’t appeared, there was no way
Haruhiro would have been able to kill the kobold boss.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Deathpatch would have left Haruhiro
behind and gone after everyone else; maybe even killed them. How many would
have died? The&lt;strong style=&quot;font-style: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;line&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;had saved Haruhiro—had saved them all.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;But it appeared by coincidence. It
just&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em style=&quot;font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;happened&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;to appear for him. And if that was the
case, then it had been pure luck; Haruhiro had just gotten lucky. If fortune
hadn’t been with him, then everyone might have died.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Haruhiro didn’t want to believe
that they had been saved by nothing but fortune. He didn’t really understand
his own reasoning, but he did know for certain that he wanted to see the&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong style=&quot;font-style: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;line&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. He wanted
to be able to see it at will. If he could make it appear whenever he wanted,
then he would be… invincible?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;

become godlike or anything, but he did want to be strong. He wanted the
strength to turn the tide of battle when it mattered.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;

blow.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

But diagonally
down Mogzo’s sword came; behind the [RAGE CLEAVE] technique came all of Mogzo’s
terrible physical strength in a single crushing blow.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Mogzo’s sword cut a good twenty
inches down into the elder kobold’s shoulder, rending the chainmail it wore as
if it didn’t exist. Mogzo’s strength was unbelievable. It wasn’t all muscle
though, it was also his new sword: The Chopper.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Everyone had given suggestions for
the name of Mogzo’s new sword, but in the end Ranta’s suggestion “The Chopper”
was adopted. The sword was of average length at about four feet long, but its
blade was incredibly thick. And though it had a cross guard, its overall
appearance was that of a giant meat cleaver.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;It was the sword previously owned
by Deathpatch, but Mogzo was also making very effective use of it. He kicked
the kobold foreman down with a grunt, then brought the blade down onto its
head, cracking its skull open like an egg.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

back.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;

Ranta railed.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;

wanted to hear that from, but he had to admit he’d been a little spaced out
just now.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Lately, they had been hunting elder
kobolds in the residential-like third stratum of the Siren Mines. Most elder’s
talismans fetched high prices at the market, and after they eliminated
Deathpatch, the third stratum was a relatively safe place to do their hunting.
The income they garnered here was very stable.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;That wasn’t to say that the danger
was zero, however. This was still enemy territory and they would pay a price if
they let themselves become complacent. Mogzo had taken out the foreman, leaving
only two kobold workers. Ranta worked on Kobold A while Yume and Mary teamed up
to take on Kobold B.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;But just then another elder leading
three little piggies—er, workers charged towards them from a little ways off.
Right when they thought the remainder of the fight would be a breeze because
the toughest of the bunch was down, the world went and threw a wrench in their
plans.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“Six of them!” Just as Haruhiro
finished the headcount, Mogzo yelled “THANK YOU!” and crushed Mary and Yume’s
opponent, Kobold B.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;

amended.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“Take this!” Ranta locked blades
with Kobold A and shoved in hard.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;It was his new Dread Knight skill,
[EXPEL FRENZY], where he’d press in with his sword to hold back an opponent who
had gotten in too close before leaping back and putting more distance between
them. It wasn’t supposed to be a flashy technique, but Ranta had a way of
over-exaggerating anything he did.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Haruhiro had to admit, though, that
[EXPEL FRENZY] did have the potential to combine well with other techniques.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“[ANGER THRUST]!”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Ranta had executed the technique
outside of range, but took a step forward to make up for it and drove his sword
into the base of Kobold A’s throat. It was instant death for the kobold and
Haruhiro reluctantly admitted that Ranta looked kind of cool for a split-second
there.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;It wasn’t just his fighting
techniques that had improved; Ranta was also equipped with a new helm. The
bucket-shaped helmet that he had been so partial to was damaged beyond repair,
so he’d bought a new bascinet helm, complete with a pull-down visor. It was
used, but painted black and Ranta had said something dumb about that making him
look like a kickass Dread Knight should.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Well, Haruhiro had to concede to
that a little now, because Ranta did seem very Dread Knight-like in that
split-second of a moment.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;

yelled, slightly flustered as he began to call out orders again. He was the
leader, after all. “Mogzo, you’ve got the elder! Ranta, take one of the workers
and take it down fast! Me and Yume will take the other two!”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

shout. When they locked blades, Mogzo executed [SPRIAL SLASH] and pressed the
attack, forcing the foreman back.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;

Kobold C. His initial attack was deflected but Ranta kept pressing forward,
unleashing an offensive flurry.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Yume attacked Kobold D head-on, and
when it countered with a swing of its shovel she performed a low somersault to avoid
it; her new skill, [FOX VAULT]. It was actually considered to be a kukri-based
technique, although Haruhiro didn’t see why; the weapon was never used
directly. Yume closed in again on the surprised Kobold D and executed her
[SWEEPING SLASH] and [CROSS CUT] combo, forcing it to retreat.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“Whoa!” Haruhiro shouted, though he
wasn’t trying to make a ruckus or anything.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Dueling a single opponent wasn’t
really a Thief Class forte. Kobold E swung its shovel at Haruhiro multiple
times while Haruhiro deflected its attacks with [SWAT]. The shovels were used
for mining, but made with metal from handle to tip, so they were also effective
as weapons.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;[SWAT] was mostly a defensive
skill, but if the opportunity arose, Haruhiro could also use it to create an
opening in his opponent’s defenses.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;He did so now as Kobold E brought
its shovel down in a wide arc. Haruhiro dodged rather than deflecting with
[SWAT]. Kobold E realized the danger and quickly drew its weapon back in. It
attacked again, but this time with a smaller, more compact swing, going more
for speed than power.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;em style=&quot;font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;Now!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Haruhiro thought and deflected
Kobold E’s shovel with [SWAT]. It wasn’t the usual [SWAT], though. Haruhiro put
strength behind the technique to force the kobold’s shovel off to the side and
away from its body. The kobold was now wide open.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Haruhiro stepped in towards it,
using his left hand and right forearm to grab and arm lock Kobold E’s right
arm. Kobold E yelped when its elbow became immobilized, even as Haruhiro swept
its feet out from under it and brought it to the ground.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;It was the new technique that
Master Barbara taught, or rather, pounded into him: [ARREST]. And while it felt
nice when he executed it perfectly, it wasn’t really a flashy technique.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;While Kobold E was still on the
ground, Haruhiro stamped his foot hard on its jaw. A kobold’s head was shaped
like a dog’s; their bite was powerful but the bone structure was delicate. The
way their jaws were built made them especially vulnerable to attacks from the
side. Kobold E was now unconscious, or close enough.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;

Shihoru.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;A fuzzy, black seaweed-like shadow
elemental shot from the tip of Shihoru’s staff, flying through the air in a
tight spiral.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Yume ducked with a yelp as the shadow
elemental flew past where her head had been. It hit Kobold D straight in the
face and began to seep into its body through its ears, mouth, and nose. Kobold
D’s movements ceased, its body stiffening like a wooden board.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Shihoru’s new technique, [SHADOW
COMPLEX], was a spell that literally got into the heads of enemies to bewilder
them. She had picked up this particular spell because she wanted more offensive
abilities and, indeed, unlike [PHANTOM SLEEP], it would work even on alert and
strong-willed enemies. The spell choice suited Shihoru very much and was
incredibly useful in combat too.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;

suddenly tossed aside its shovel, looking incredibly confused. Yume attacked
furiously with her kukri, punctuating each swing with a shout. By the time
Kobold D regained its senses, it was too late. Yume had shredded up its body so
badly that there would be no counterattack.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;

with the [EXPEL FRENZY]-[ANGER THRUST] combo he had been so enamored with
lately.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Haruhiro wondered if the elder was putting up a tough fight.&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em style=&quot;font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;No, that’s not the case,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;Haruhiro
realized. The elder seemed to have found an opening and was bringing its sword
down on Mogzo’s left arm. But only because Mogzo was purposely letting it.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Mogzo was now equipped with a steel
fauld that protected his waist and steel vambraces on both arms. Both were
bought used, but had been refitted by an armorer. And Mogzo had also acquired a
new fighting technique to complement his heavy armor.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;The elder foreman’s sword came down
on Mogzo’s arm with a heavy clang, but glanced off. It wasn’t simply a normal
deflection though; it was the [STEEL GUARD] technique. He didn’t belong to the
Warrior’s Guild, so Haruhiro didn’t really know the details behind it, but it
was some sort of special way of reinforcing one’s armor with one’s energy so
that all the enemy’s attacks would bounce off.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;And as if that wasn’t enough
defense, the entire team was under Mary’s [LIGHT OF PROTECTION] spell which
enhanced physical ability, resistances, and sped up the body’s ability to heal
itself. The spell probably had something to do with the God of Light Luminous,
as his hexagon symbol floated above everyone’s left wrists while they were under
the spell’s effects. According to Mary, it could be cast on up to six people
and lasted for up to thirty minutes. Haruhiro felt the spell’s effectiveness as
his body became noticeably lighter, which enhanced his fighting ability
enormously.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;And maybe thanks to [LIGHT OF
PROTECTION], Mogzo also moved swiftly to finish off the elder.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“THANK YOU!!!” Mogzo shouted.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Of course Mogzo would use [RAGE
CLEAVE]. It wasn’t just his standard finishing move, it was a powerful, stable
and most of all, a magnificent, technique. Mogzo’s sword crushed into the
shoulder of the already off-balance elder. It was almost the exact same way he
had killed the first foreman.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Mogzo’s form and style were elegant
and, unlike Ranta, he never resorted to doing weird shit and cheap tricks just
to try to look cool. He was a simple person in the good sense of the phrase. He
stuck to the same basic techniques, but practiced them so often that he gave
them his own customized, unique form of their own.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Maybe Haruhiro was overstating it a
little, but there was no doubt that [RAGE CLEAVE] in Mogzo’s hands had gone
from an average, run-of-the-mill technique to a devastating killing blow. Of
course [RAGE CLEAVE]’s effectiveness must also have been affected by things
like the user’s physical strength, proficiency, and weapon quality, among other
factors, but what made it so effective for Mogzo was undoubtedly his timing.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Whenever he recognized an opening,
Mogzo used it. The precise timing with which he used [RAGE CLEAVE] made
Haruhiro want to give Mogzo a standing ovation every time he saw it. In fact he
wanted to applaud Mogzo even now… should he actually do it?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;As Haruhiro considered that, Ranta
attacked Kobold D from behind. Yume already had it on the run, but Ranta’s
attack finished it.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“Hahaha! YESSSSS! Got my Vice!”
Ranta proclaimed.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“Stupid Ranta!” Yume shouted. “Yume
could’ve handled it alone!”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“What was that? You were gonna kill
it with your own hands? Ms. Washboard, seeking blood like a wild beast!? Ha!
You wanna devote yourself to Lord Skulheill too?” Ranta offered.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“No way!” Yume replied. “Yume is a
Hunter who loves the White Goddess Eldritch. Yume just thought that if she’s
goin’ to battle against the poor kobos one-and-one, Yume might as well see it
through to the end! And don’t call Yume flat!!!”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“Yume, it’s one-&lt;em style=&quot;font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;on&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;-one…”
Haruhiro couldn’t help but correct her but was, as expected, thoroughly ignored.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“Flat-chested is flat-chested! If
you don’t want me calling you flat, then grow them bigger!” Ranta shot back.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“Yume doesn’t know how to grow
boobs bigger!” Yume said earnestly.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“You do it like this!” Ranta turned
to Yume and made some sort of massaging, fondling motion on his own chest.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“Sexual harassment!” Shihoru
protested, glaring daggers at Ranta while Mary sighed and muttered, “Utterly
despicable.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“I’m the best!” Ranta shouted,
veins in his temple bulging. “The best sexual harasser! The utterly despicable
best! Bring it on! Nothing you say will faze me! I’ll become the most utterly
despicable sexual harassment king!”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;“Hm…” Yume pondered and copied
Ranta… or rather, she was actually fondling her own breasts. “Do they really
get bigger? ‘Cause I sure don’t feel them growin’! Or is it harder to grow ‘em
than it looks?”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Mogzo made some sort of choking
sound while Shihoru quickly grabbed Yume’s hands and said, “Y-Yume… that’s not
something you do in front of other people!”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://grimgarthetranslation.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/img_0023.jpg?w=345&amp;amp;h=487&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
“Oh, so it only works if I do it in private?” Yume asked.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“Um, no… I don’t
think that’s the case…” Shihoru replied.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
Ranta scoffed.
“What’s the big deal? Keep massaging them! They’re so small no one watching is
gonna see anything!”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“Douchebag Ranta!”
Yume cried.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“I’m not a
douchebag! I’m the Most Utterly Despicable Sexual Harassment King! It’s my
newly gained title and don’t you forget or regret it! Now bow down to my
pervertedness!”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“Quit saying that
like it’s a good thing,” Haruhiro said as he began to search the kobolds’
belongings.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
None of their
equipment was sellable, so he contented himself with their talismans. As he
crouched near a body and carefully removed an earring talisman from one of the
worker kobolds, Ranta suddenly jumped near him and tore off a gold nose ring
from a dead kobold nearby.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
Haruhiro deeply
disliked Ranta’s rough treatment of the bodies. There were also plenty of other
things Haruhiro disliked about Ranta. In fact, he disliked almost everything
about the guy.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“What?” Ranta glared
at Haruhiro. “Got something you wanna say to me?”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“Not really,”
Haruhiro replied.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“Let me say this to
you then.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“What?”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“Haruhiro,” Ranta
used his thumb to flick the gold nose ring into the air and let it land in his
open palm. “Don’t start getting any big ideas.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“Big ideas?”
Haruhiro asked. “What’s that supposed to mean?”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“You think you’ve
become some kind of hero, don’t you?” Ranta accused.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“Hero?” Haruhiro
repeated.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
Only stupid Ranta
would think something retarded like that, was Haruhiro’s instinctive response.
But the words quickly grew heavy in his chest and he didn’t reply right away.&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em style=&quot;font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;A hero, huh?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Haruhiro
had never entertained any thoughts of becoming one. None at all. Not even the
slightest shadow of a thought. But…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“Your movements in
that fight just now,” Ranta continued in a tone so low that none of the others
could hear him. Strange, since Ranta wasn’t the considerate type. “Were really
weird.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“No way. It was just
the usual,” Haruhiro denied.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“No. You were acting
weird,” Ranta said. “Like you were one step slower than usual. Or maybe not
slower… you were trying to do&lt;em style=&quot;font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;that&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, weren’t you?
The one hit kill move.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
Haruhiro didn’t
answer but shrugged his shoulders minutely. He tried to keep his expression
neutral, but felt himself breaking into a cold sweat. Because Ranta was right.
How could a guy like him even notice in the first place?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“You’re not hero
material, Haruhiro,” Ranta continued. “Got it? Know your limits.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
He patted Haruhiro
on the shoulder sympathetically. Haruhiro wanted to slug him in return, but he
didn’t bother. Nothing Haruhiro could say to a person like Ranta would matter.&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em style=&quot;font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;Ranta, would you even
understand?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;No, he wouldn’t. Ranta didn’t understand how
Haruhiro felt at all.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
Haruhiro had almost
died. In return for his companion’s lives, he had almost traded his own. But
everyone lived, they even killed Deathpatch, and everything was wonderful.
All’s well that ends well, as the saying goes. But it only ended well because
they had gotten lucky.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
Haruhiro wouldn’t
have been able to do it if the&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong style=&quot;font-style: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;line&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;hadn’t appeared. He supposed that maybe he
should just be satisfied with receiving fortune’s favor that time and not think
too deeply on it. But what about next time? What if they ran into a situation
like that again? Should he just leave it up to chance then as well?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
No, that wasn’t an
option. So what could he do?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
He had two choices.
The first was to bet that they could avoid getting into dangerous situations in
the first place. And, of course, Haruhiro intended to try his best to. The
second was to turn chance into certainty. All he had to do was make it so that
he could see the&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong style=&quot;font-style: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;line&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;all
the time.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
But it wasn’t that
simple. Master Barbara had told him before, “Sometimes it appears, sometimes it
doesn’t. It’s not like we can will it to appear by concentrating hard or
anything.” It wasn’t a reliable technique and becoming dependent on it would be
a mistake. And Haruhiro realized the wisdom of her words.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
However, he couldn’t
resist entertaining the possibility. If he could make the&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong style=&quot;font-style: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;line&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;appear
at will, then it would mean that he was a born warrior. Naturally talented.&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em style=&quot;font-weight: inherit; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;inherit&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;And wouldn’t that be awesome?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #999999; font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 7.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;he
thought to himself.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“Haru?” Mary
inquired.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
Haruhiro hadn’t even
noticed that she had crouched next to him.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“Err—something
wrong?” he asked.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“I should ask you
the same,” Mary said with a slight smile. “Is there something on your mind?”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“No… not really,”
Haruhiro lied.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
If they weren’t on
the third stratum of the Siren Mines and if no one else was around, then maybe
he would have confided in her. Or maybe not, regardless of where and who was
there.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“I’m fine,” he tried
to reassure her.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
“Really… if you say
so then,” Mary said, entirely unconvinced.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;&quot;&gt;
And Haruhiro knew
from her expression that she didn’t believe him. The look on her face made him
feel like he had done something horrible to her and made his chest ache with a
dull pain.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;Similes
are a specific and formulaic form of allegory. A simile is a juxtaposed
comparison of two or more objects to draw attention to their similarities. In

that the reader (or listener) can picture it in the same way you do.&amp;nbsp; In
these cases, it is often helpful to draw a comparison.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; text-indent: 0.5in; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;Let’s imagine that you have
lived in an area which has no access to the water, and you are given the
opportunity to travel and see the ocean for the very first time.&amp;nbsp; This is
sure to be a moving, and breathtaking experience, and one you will definitely
want to relay to your fiends back home.&amp;nbsp; It just doesn’t seem like enough
to say “It was big”, or “It was really cool”.&amp;nbsp; There needs to be more of a
descriptive element to your story to help paint the picture for your friends.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;This is where similes and metaphors come in.&amp;nbsp;
Let’s look at some simile examples first:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;“The ocean was as big and wide as the sky.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“It was like looking over the edge of the world!”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“Parts of it were calm and clear as a mirror, while other parts were as rough
and turbulent as storm clouds.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“Seeing the ocean for the first time was like walking out into the sunlight
after being kept in the dark.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; text-indent: 0.5in; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;In each of those examples,
you are asking your readers and listeners to recall other objects, and apply
the properties of those objects (like the sky, a mirror, and sunlight), to the
ocean to help them experience it in the way you did.&amp;nbsp; These&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.udemy.com/collegewriting/?tc=blog.simileandmetaphorexamples&amp;amp;couponCode=half-off-for-blog&amp;amp;utm_source=blog&amp;amp;utm_medium=udemyads&amp;amp;utm_content=post81576&amp;amp;utm_campaign=content-marketing-blog&amp;amp;xref=blog&quot; style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box; outline: 0px !important; transition: all 0.1s ease-in-out;&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;College Writing&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #416cb4; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;figures of speech&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-converted-space&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #416cb4; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;are
meant to be evocative and direct.&amp;nbsp; It should put your audience in a
position to imagine the specific feelings and images you experienced, even
without being there.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; text-indent: 0.5in; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;Looking at the same ocean
experience from the standpoint of metaphors, you will see that these
comparisons are perhaps a little more subtle, but also full of potent imagery:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;“Seeing the ocean for the first time was an eye
opening experience.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“The ocean was a boiling cauldron of water and life.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“It was a thunderstorm turned upside-down, hammering on the shore.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Used?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; text-indent: 0.5in; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;If you are in an English or
literature class, it is possible that your first introduction to similes and
metaphors will happen when you learn about either poetry or narrative
writing.&amp;nbsp; It is true that the images created by using these figures of
speech can be very striking, and therefore are often used in these types of
writing.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; letter-spacing: .1pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;For Business Writing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; letter-spacing: .1pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-theme-font: major-fareast; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; line-height: 22.3pt; text-indent: .5in; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;It can also be valuable and
beneficial to use similes and metaphors in your everyday speaking and
writing.&amp;nbsp; Let’s look at a few examples which would be appropriate in a
business setting.&amp;nbsp; Imagine you are trying to arrange a meeting at&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.udemy.com/writing-effective-business-emails/?tc=blog.simileandmetaphorexamples&amp;amp;couponCode=half-off-for-blog&amp;amp;utm_source=blog&amp;amp;utm_medium=udemyads&amp;amp;utm_content=post81576&amp;amp;utm_campaign=content-marketing-blog&amp;amp;xref=blog&quot; style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box; outline: 0px !important; transition: all 0.1s ease-in-out;&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Writing Effective Business Emails&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #416cb4; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;work via email&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, and you want to convey how
important the issue at hand is.&amp;nbsp; You might try using some of the following
similes:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;“Our client is as anxious as a kid on Christmas
morning.&amp;nbsp; It’s imperative that we get him some plans today!”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“This issue is as complicated as a Rubik’s cube.&amp;nbsp; It’s going to take
everyone’s involvement to solve it right.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“If we can close this sale today, the higher ups will be happy as clams.&amp;nbsp;
Let’s move on this now.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;Sticking with the same situation, you could just as
easily use metaphors to convey the urgency of a pressing issue to your
coworkers:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;“This issue is a hot potato that has been passed
around to much.&amp;nbsp; We need to address it once and for all.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“We are sitting ducks if we don’t get on this soon.&amp;nbsp; We want to look good
in front of our clients, and the boss.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“If we can solve this today, and come in under budget, the client will be putty
in our hands.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;Each example is comparing one aspect of the issue
to an evocative image.&amp;nbsp; Even though this is a business environment, and
not a poetry class, similes and metaphors can be quite useful.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; letter-spacing: .1pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;For Educational and School Related Writing:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; line-height: 22.3pt; text-indent: .5in; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;They can also be used in an
educational environment.&amp;nbsp; Obviously, any writing assignment could always
benefit from more description, and more examples to help your reading audience
understand your point.&amp;nbsp; Let’s assume you are working on an essay regarding
a political topic, and you are trying to convey why this issue is so important
to those involved.&amp;nbsp; In this case, using similes and metaphors will give
your readers something concrete to tie these ideas to, even if they are
unfamiliar with the issue itself.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;“Appointing this candidate to office will be like
putting a fox in charge of a hen house.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“Addressing the issue with a budget so small will be like trying to cure a
severed limb with a band-aid.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“Merely sitting in the White House makes you a good president about as much as
sitting in your garage makes you a car.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;For metaphor examples, let’s switch over to English
class.&amp;nbsp; Here, you are likely to be called upon for some more descriptive
and poetic writing.&amp;nbsp; At some point in your writing career, you will
probably have to come up with a few metaphors in a&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.udemy.com/providenceelearningromantics/?tc=blog.simileandmetaphorexamples&amp;amp;couponCode=half-off-for-blog&amp;amp;utm_source=blog&amp;amp;utm_medium=udemyads&amp;amp;utm_content=post81576&amp;amp;utm_campaign=content-marketing-blog&amp;amp;xref=blog&quot; style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box; outline: 0px !important; transition: all 0.1s ease-in-out;&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Understanding the Romantics&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #416cb4; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;&quot;&gt;poetry lesson&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; Some examples may include:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;“Her eyes were twin pools of deep, blue serenity.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“His anger was a freight train, loud and dangerous.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“An unopened book is your next big adventure, waiting to happen.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;These are perhaps more flowery examples of ways to
get your readers to picture things a certain way, but a frequently used device
in English and literature classes.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h2 style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); font-size: 1.875rem; margin: 1rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;What Are Some Well Known Similes
and Metaphors?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;Believe it or not, you probably already know dozens
of examples of similes and metaphors – you just may not realize that’s what
they are.&amp;nbsp; Many well known sayings are, in fact, great examples of these
figures of speech.&amp;nbsp; Let’s consider some of the following:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); line-height: 22.3pt; margin: 1.25rem; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;“My love is like a red, red rose.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“This is yesterday’s news.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“Shaking like a leaf on a tree.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“Sick as a dog.”&lt;br style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot; /&gt;
“That rubbed me the wrong way.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: .1pt;&quot;&gt;Similes and metaphors are a great and easy way to
help make your written and spoken language more descriptive, and perhaps easier
for your audience to connect with.&amp;nbsp; These examples do not have to exist
only in poems, you can use them every day.&amp;nbsp; To learn more about poetry,

is an expression, word, or phrase that has a figurative meaning conventionally
understood by native speakers. This meaning is different from the literal

exactly what the words say. They have, however, hidden meaning.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;color: #59596b;&quot;&gt;To understand English as it is spoken in real
life, you have to be familiar with idioms. They are used so much in everyday
English that it is important to be aware of them. You need to learn what they
mean, and how to use them to become an ‘insider’.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Runner-Up Girl &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
MIRA berlari keeil sambi! bersenandung. Gadis tomboi berambut
pendek itu mengayun kakijenjangnya dengan riang. Pagi masih dingin, walau
terkonntaminasi deru mesin dan asap kendaraan yang berseliweran. Bising dan
semrawutPagi selalu menjadi saat sibuk bagi Mira, dan dia sadar betul hal itu.
maka&quot;nya dla selalu mengisi kegiatan pagi dengan bersenandungdung. Selain
untuk menyamarkan suara bising disekelilingnya, juga untuk menjaga suasana
hatinya tetapriang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira biasa ke sekolah berjalan kaki. Sesekali ia selingi
bersepeda. Selain bugar, juga mengurangi dampak pemanasan global. Mira memang
peduli kelestarian lingkungan Lagi pula sekolahnya dekat, jalan jelas hemat dan
sehat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Dari rumah Mira tidak langsung ke sekolah. Dia Mampir ke rumah
Kelly, sahabatnya, yang hanya jarak tiga ratus meter dari rumahnya. Kadang Mira
ikut sarapan bersama keluarga Kelly yang hangat. Tak heran bila Mira betah
meluangkan waktu bersama mereka, bahkan kadang mampir hanya untuk menyapa adik
Kelly yang tueu. Selanjutnya Mira dan Kelly akan berlari-lari kedl di trotaar
sambil bereanda ria menuju sekolah.&quot;Wah, siapa yang mendandani rambutmu,
Kel? Oikepang satu di atas begitu jadi sangat eantik Iho,&quot; puji Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly tersipu. &quot;Ah, kamu bisa aja.&quot; &quot;Betul.
Pita pink yang kamu pakai membuat penampilanmu semakin manis,&quot; lanjut
Mira. Tanpa sadar dia meraba rambutnya yang pendek dan keriting. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Sudah pasti tak bisa diikat.~
Bahkan tidak eoeok diberi aksesori apa &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
pun. Bukannya bertambah eantik, hiasan rambut justru
membuatnya kelihatan konyo!. Maklum, Mira tomboi abis. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Kamu juga cantik! Aku memang memiliki rambut panjang,
tapi tidak punya mata lebar, berbinar, dan bening seperti matamu, Mir!&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Mmm... t api kamu memiliki adik lucu!&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Kamu punya rumah megah dengan segala macam fasilita s
kamplet,&quot; sahut Kelly tak mau kalah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Kamu punya ibu yang pintar memasak dan sangat &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
baik!&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Kamu punya ibu dan ayah kaya raya!&quot; sahut Kelly &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
lagi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Ah, sudahlah, kita memang nggak sarna, dan karena itulah
persahabatan kita langgeng. Iya, kan?&quot; Mira tidak ingin melanjutkan
perdebatan. Kelly tidak menyahut. Oia justru menghentikan langkahnya. Matanya
melotot ke satu arah. Mira ikut berhenti &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
dan memandang Kelly dengan heran. Karena Kelly bergeming, Mira
segera mengalihkan pandangan ke arah yang sarna dengan tatapan Kelly. Oi depan
rumah megah di tepi jalan searang cowok tengah memperhatikanmereka. Gelagatnya
seolah&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
menunggu Kelly dan Mira
lewat. Tanpa dikomanda, jantung Kelly dan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira beradu cepat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly jadi grogi. &quot;5epertinya dia menunggu kita
deh.&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Udah, cuek aja!&quot; sahut Mira sambil menggamit
pergelangan tangan Kelly. &quot;Yuk jalan!&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Langkah Kelly mendadak canggung. Walau menunduk, Dia masih
mencuri pandang ke arah cowok bertubuh jangkung yang masih berdiri di depan
mereka. Semakin mendekat kearah cowok itu, Kelly semakin salah tingkah. &quot;
hai”&#39; sapa cowok itu begitu Mira dan Kelly berada &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
dalamjarak satu meter dari tempat dia menjejakan kaki &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira dan Kelly menghentikan langkah, menatap cowok itu penuh
penasaran&quot;Boleh bergabung? tanya si cowok berkulit hitam dan berhidung
mancung itu sambil tersenyum ramah. Mira mengangkat bahu. la menoleh pada
Kelly. Yang &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
ditoleh tersenyum malu-malu. Tangan Kelly meremas rok, tanda
grogi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Tiap pagi kulihat kalian ke sekolah jalan kaki, kayaknya
asyik banget. Makanya pagi ini aku mau ikutan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Boleh, kan? Lagian seragam kita sama, berarti kita satu
sekolah dong!&quot; cerocos cowok itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Mmm.. . boleh saja, asal kamu nggak lebih cerewet
daripada Kelly, sahabatku ini,&quot; balas Mira sambil tertawa &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
ked l, lalu sedetik kemudian
dibalas cubitan Kelly di lengannya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Si cowok hitam manis tertawa renyah. Kemudian dia mengulurkan
tangan. &quot;Aku Riku,&quot; ujarya memperkenalkandiri. &quot; Kalian?&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Aha! Riku!&quot; Kelly memekik. &quot;Iya... aku tahu
kamu. Kamu yang jago main sepak bola itu, kan? Wah, aku senang sekali bisa
berkenalan denganmu. Namaku Kelly.&quot; Kelly tersenyum riang, kemudian
menjabat tangan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku lama. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira melirik Kelly. Rupanya sahabatnya sudah mampu menguasai
diri. Bahkan terkesan sok akrab pada Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Aduh, t angan kalian ada lemnya ya?&quot; tegur Mira
karena Kelly tak juga menarik tangannya dan genggaman Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly dan Riku langsung melepas tangan mereka. Wajah Kelly
memerah. Dia melirik jutek pada Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Udah yuk, berangkat! Keburu telat nih!&quot; Mira
mengandeng Kelly, lalu kedua cewek itu berjalan dengan langkah cepat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku berjalan di belakang kedua gadis itu. &quot;Namamu
siapa?&quot; tanya Riku pada Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Aku Mira,&quot; balas Mira tanpa menoleh pada Riku.Riku
tersenyum. Dia mempercepat langkah agar tidaktertinggal dua gadis yang berjalan
supercepat itu.hampir saja mereka telat . Begitu melewati gerbang sekolah, bel
berbunyi. Riku beda angkatan-kelas beda setahun di atas Mira dan Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
&quot; Dadaaah, Riku!&quot;
seru Kelly saat mereka berpisah menuju kelas masing-masing. . &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;ih... kegenit an deh, Kel!&quot; tegur Mira pelan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Aduh, Mir. Riku cakep banget! Kulit cokelat, sorot Mata
tajam, hidung mancung, dan tubuhnya atletis banget !&quot; Kelly mulai
nyerocos. Anak itu memang nggak pernah lihat cowok ganteng. Bawaannya suka
histeris, kayak melihat aktor-aktor Korea di film Korea kegemanranya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“papamu juga berkulit cokelat, bermata tajam, dan Hidung
mancung. Tubuhnya atletis!&quot; kata Mira yang sekarang duduk di bangkunya dan
sedang memasukkan tas ke atas meja. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;lh, Mira!&quot; sungut Kelly sewot. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Mmm, apa kelak aku juga akan menyukai cowok seperti
papaku? Tinggi, kalem,berkacamata, rapi, dan...punya otak?&quot; ucap Mira,
nyaris bergumam. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Emang Riku nggak punya otak?&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Vee, sewot amat. Aku kan tidak sedang membandingkan
papaku dengan Riku. Lagian, kamu udah lupa ya. ada tujuh kecerdasan majemuk.
Nah, pada Riku jelas kecerdasan kinestetiknya yang dominan dan kayaknya
interpersonalnya juga bagus tuh!&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly mengangguk-angguk. Kelly sadar betul bahwa Mira anak
yang sangat cerdas, suka berpikir, dan gemar membaca. Sedangkan Kelly lebih
suka mengurus rumah, melakukan hal-hal yang berhubungan dengan keterampilan
tangan dan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
ketekunan. Va, sifat Kelly
dan Mira bertolak belakang. Namun itu bukan halangan bagi mereka untuk
bersahabat. Mereka justru saling melengkapi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
*** &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Saat istirahat, Kelly dan Mira bertemu kembali dengan Riku di
pinggir lapangan sepak bola. Kali ilu Riku lidak sendirian. Dia bersama seorang
cowok. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Hai, Mira, Kelly!&quot; sapa Riku ketika mereka
berpapasan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Mau menyantap bekal, ya? Kita barengan yuk!&quot; ajak
Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mereka duduk di sebangku semen di tepi lapangan.
&quot;Kenalkan,ini Aoi, teman sekelasku,&quot; Riku memperkenalkan cowok yang
sedari tadi diam membisu di sampingnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly dan Mira segera menjabat tangan Aoi. Wajah Aoi tak
berhias senyum sama sekali. Jabatan tangannya pun terasa kaku, seolah dia tidak
tulus melakukannya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mata Aoi sipit. Kacamata minus bertengger di hidungnya yang
mungil. Rambut Aoi lurus dan dipangkas sangat pendek, memberi kesan rapi.
Sebenamya Aoi &#39; tampan. Sayang, raut wajahnya yang kaku memberi kesan tidak
ramah. Juga bibimya yang mungil tanpa senyum menambah ekspresi sinis cowok itu.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Wah, untung aku nggak seangkatan dan sekelas denganmu.
Kalau sampai sekelas, aku lebih baik pindah kelas,&quot; kata Mira pada Aoi
saat mereka tengah menikmati bekal. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi menoleh pada Mira sambil mengerutkan dahi &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
&quot;Wajahmu mengganggu
pemandangan. Memang kalau tersenyum, bibirmu bisa gatal-gatal ya?&quot; tanya
Mira cuek dengan mulut penuh makanan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi diam saja, sementara Kelly dan Riku terbahak. MIra memang
suka ceplas-ceplos. Apa saja yang ada di plklrannya sering keluar tanpa
pertimbangan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;oi memang pendiam, Mir. Tapi otaknya encer banget .Dia
mencalonkan diri jadi ketua osis tahun ini,&quot;ucap riku &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Apa peduliku, &quot; balas Mira sambi! Menggigit
sandwich tuna kesukaannya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Mmm... oyam....&quot; Riku cuma bisa geleng-geleng. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sementara itu, Kelly segera memuji Aoi karena merasa tidak
enak dengan sikap Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&#39;Wah, Aoi hebat. Semoga kamu terpilih jadi ketua osis,
ya.&quot; Kelly tersenyum sambil menatap Aoi. Tapi Aoi diam saja seraya
menikmati snack-nya, tak menanggapi sedikit pun ucapan simpatik Kelly. Aoi
seolah hanya sendirian di tepi lapangan. Kelly terlihat agak kecewa karena tak
mendapatkan respons. gadis manis itu &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
mendesah lirih ketika memalingkan wajah dan Aoi. Suasana
seketika menjadi kaku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Eh, nanti pulangnya kita bareng, kan?&quot; tanya Riku
pada Mira, mencoba mencairkan suasana. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Mmm, aku dan Kelly mau mampir ke apatek dulu,&quot;
balas Mira tanpa ekspresi sambil mengernasi wadah bekalnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
&quot;Ada yang sakit dan
butuh obat, ya?&quot; Riku ·bertanya lagi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Iya. Ternan di sebelah kamu itu kan butuh obat khusus.Siapa
tahu aku bisa nemuin obat yang bisa membuat wajahnya lebih enak dilihat. Krim
anticemberut, mungkin. Atau kalau mau cepat sih aku bisa beliin puyer dosis
tinggi sekalian!&quot;Riku dan Kelly lagi-Iagi terbahak. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kini aoi menatap tajam mata Mira. Namun, bukan Mira namanya
kalau dia lantas rikuh atau gentar. Gadis tombai itu justru membalas tatapan
Aai dengan lebih tajam. Mereka berdua bertatapan bagai dua musuh Padahal,
mereka baru saja berkenalan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Apa sih maumu?cari perhatian, ya?&quot; tanya Aoi ketus.
Sontak Mira ternganga mendengar suara yang akhirnya keluar dari mulut Aoi.
&quot;Aha! Akhimya aku berhasil memancingmu mengeluarkan suara. Wah... suara
kamu cocok tuh untuk cari receh di perempatan!&quot; ejek Mira.Aoi menatap Mira
kesal. Sebenamya emosi Aoi sudah tersulut sedari tadi. Rasa·rasanya dia ingin
menonjok wajah Mira. Tapi itu tak mungkin dHakukannya karena MIra cewek. Hanya
cowak tak bermartabat yang bisa melakukan hal serendah itu. Untuk melampiaskan
kesalannya, Aoi menyepak kerikil yang menempel digulung sepatunya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Hei... hei! Biasanya cowak dan cewek yang saling
membenci lama-lama jadi saling cinta Ioh!&quot; goda Kelly, Mira dan Aoi masih
bertatapan dengan ekspresi tidak bersahabat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
&quot; Ih, mana mungkin aku
jatuh cinta sarna cowok robot kayak gitu!&quot; sambar Mira sambil pura-pura
bergidik. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Apalagi aku, balas Aoi. &quot;Mending aku jomblo
daripada punya cewek .cabe rawit kayak kamu! Mulut kamupedes, tau!&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Mending cabe rawit,&quot; Mira tak mau kalah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot; Biarpunpedes, banyak orang butuh dan suka cabe rawit.
Rumah makan yang banyak menu sambalnya malah lagi musim dan laris manis. Nggak
kayak robot, yang cuma bisa &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
menjalankan perintah, kaku kayak benda mati, dan nggak semua
orang butuh!&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi makin kesal pada Mira. Dia ingin membalas katakata Mira,
tapi Riku keburu berdiri dan melerai pertikaian mereka. &quot;Hei, sudah...
sudah! Kok malah bertengkar sih?&quot; Riku geleng-geleng melihat kelakuan dua
temannya. &quot;Sebentar lagi bel. Yuk kita ke kelas!&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly segera berdiri, lalu menarik tangan Mira. Sebenamya Mira
belum puas. Dia masih ingin berbalas kata-kata pedas dengan Aoi. Namun bel
istirahat berakhir bakal terdengar sebentar lagi. Pelajaran berikutnya biologi.
Guru biologi mereka t idak memberikan toleransi &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
sedikit pun kepada anak yang terlambat masuk pelajarannya. Mau
takmau Mira mengikuti langkah Kelly yang bergegas menuju kelas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Ih... aku nggak nyangka kamu punya teman seperti Lucifer
gitu!&quot; kata Aoi pada Riku sepeninggal keduacewek itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Riku hanya tertawa sambil
merangkul bahu Aoi. Kemudian mereka juga berjalan menuju kelas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
MIRA duduk di tepi kolam renang sambi! Mendengarkan musik dan
menatap langit. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
langit terlihat cerah. Wrna biru dan awan-awan putih yang
menghiasinya terlihat begitu serasi. Indah sekali. Sayang, hati Mira tengah
mendung. Dia kesepian. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Di rumahnya yang besar dan megah hanya ada dia dan beberapa
pembantu rumah tangga. Kadang rumahnya ramai kala para pembantu bekerja sambil
bersenda gurau. Sesekali Mira terlibat dalam canda mereka, tapi di lubuk hati,
tetap ia merasa kesepian. la menginginkan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
kehadiran mama-papanya. Orangtuanya kerap ke luar kota.
Kalaupun ada di rumah, sedikit sekali waktu yang di luangkan mereka untuk Mira.
Papa terlalu sibuk mengurus perusahaan, sementara Mama lebih suka mengatur dan
menekan Mira untuk selalu berprestasi optimal. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mengapa Mama tak seperti ibu Kelly ya? Ibu Kelly baik, lembut,
selalu di rumah untuk memasak, merawat tanaman, dan mendengarkan apa pun kisah
yang diceritakan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly. Beruntung banget Kelly punya ibu seperti itu, batin
Mira. Jika berada di tengah keluarga Kelly, Mira merasa senang sekaligus iri.
dia rindu berada &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
dalam keluarga yang hangat dan saling mempematikan seperti
keluarga Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Huh... mengapa aku melamun
saja han ini?! Mama &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
bisa marah kalau tahu aku di rumah hanya melamun. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Bisa habis telinga terbakar amarah Mama!” keluh Mira dalam
hati. Dia pun bangkit dan menuju kamamya. Ada sesuatu yang harus dikerjakannya
segera. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menyalakan laptop. Dia memeriksa ulang karya ilmiah yang
sudah dia kirimkan ke Kementerian lingkungan Hidup. dua minggu lalu gadis itu
mengirimkan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
tulisannya untuk lomba tersebut. Walau naskahnya sudah
terkirim, Mira selalu membaca ulang karyanya.ditelitinya lagi setiap kata yang
ia tulis. Jangan-jangan ada kesalahan. Sedikit saja kekeliruan membuat hatinya
tak tenang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kali itu Mira sangat yakin akan kesempurnaan tulisannya.
Banyak waktu yang sudah dia korbankan untuk meneliti dan menyusun subjek
pilihannya menjadi karya ilmiah yang benar-benar valid. Kalimat demi kalimat
yang dituangkan berkali-kali dia baca dan perbaiki hingga menjadi kalimat yang
baik dan enak dibaca. Mira yakin karyanya bakal menang. dia sudah membayangkan,
betapa senang mamanya bila dia menjadi juara lomba tersebut. Hal itu memang dia
lakukan demi mamanya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tolong aku, Tuhan. Karyaku sangat bagus dan aku &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
berjuang keras membuatnya. Besok hari istimewa ka· &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
rena koran mengumumkan pemenangnya. Tuhan, aku &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
sungguh berharap, akulah juaranya. Bantu aku, Tuhan, &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
pliiis,” Mira berdoa khusyuk.
Setelah capek memelototi layar laptop, Mira rebah di kasur. Terbayang di
otaknya senyum Mama yang akan mengembang lebar jika ia jadi juara nanti. Mama
pasti sangat bangga dengan prestasinya. Mama memang perfeksionis dan sangat
gila prestasi. Mira-Iah yang jadi sasaran obsesi Mama. Mira dituntut berprestasi
setinggi mungkin dalam segala bidang. Sejak Mira kenyang mengikuti berbagai
perlombaan. di rumah sampai ada ruang khusus untuk menyimpan piala dan piagam
hasil &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
perlombaan yang diikuti Mira. Terkadang Mira tertekan
mengingat hal itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Semalaman Mira tak bisa terpejam. la terus memikirkan hari
esok. Berita baik atau berita burukkah yang di terimanya besok? Baik bila dia
menjuarai lomba itu,atau buruk bila namanya sama sekali tak tercantum pada
deretan pemenang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Duh, aku menyesal telah memberitahu Mama dan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Papa bahwa aku ikut lomba. Kalau aku kalah, mereka &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
pasti san &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
gat kecewa. Harusnya kuberitahu kalau sudah &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
jelas aku menang! “Mira mendadak gugup. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Duh, ada mesin waktu nggak sih? Teknologi sudah &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
begitu maju, tetapi mengapa nggak ada mesin waktu &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
ya?” Saking gelisah, pikiran Mira mulai melantur. Kayaknya aku
harus jadi ilmuwan deh. Aku ingin membuat alat canggih &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
yang bisa membawa manusia ke
masa lalu. Jadi, semua orang bisa memperbaiki kesalahan masa lalunya. Ah, pasti
menyenangkan bila ada alat semacam &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
itu. Mira ngikik membayangkan ada alat secanggih itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Hampir tengah malam saat Mira baru saja terpejam, sebuah
ketukan halus di pintu kamar membuatnya urung tidur. Ternyata Mama, yang baru
pulang dari luar kota. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Hai, Sayang,&quot; sapa Mama sambi! mengecup kening Mira
sekilas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Lho, kok pulang, Ma? Tengah malam begini?&quot; tanya
Mira heran. &quot;Mira kirain masih beberapa hari lagi.&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Besok pengumuman lomba karya tulis yang kamu ikuti,
bukan? Mama yakin kamu juaranya,Mir!&quot;kataMama. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Mama khusus pulang untuk menyiapkanmu pada acara
penerimaan hadiah bagi pemenang. Kita harus belanja baju baru untuk han
istimewamu itu.&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Jangan berharap tertalu banyak, Ma. Saingan Mira juga
banyak, kan?&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&quot;Mir, jadi orang optirnis dong! Mau jadi apa kamu kalau
sedikit-sedikit berpikiran negatif dan menyerah begitu? Kamu hidup dalam
generasi yang kejam dan penuh persaingan. Kalau lembek dan santai, kamu akan
terlindas kehidupan. Kamu mati sia-sia dan tak punya apa-apa Camkan itu
baik-baik! Besok kamulah juaranya!&quot; tegas mama Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Kata-kata Mama yang tajam
menohok bagaikan pesawat tempur yang menembaki Mira bertubi-tubi. Hati Mira
jadi tak menentu. Dia sungguh takut menghadapi esok. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
MIRA bangun dengan wajah sembap karena kurang tidur. Dia
mencoba bemyanyi untuk menenteramk an hati. Tapi bibirnya tak mampu
mengeluarkan suara apa pun. Hatinya betul-betul gentar. Keberadaan Mama dan
pengumuman lomba betul-betul kombinasi sempurna yang membuat nyalinya ciut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Setelah mandi, sarapan, dan siap berangkat ke sekolah, Mira
berjalan tanpa semangat. Sesampainya di rumah Kelly, ía hanya mematung di depan
pagar, menunggu sahabatnya ke luar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira... masuk dulu, Sayang!” terlak mama Kelly dan pintu
rumah. “Tante bikin roti bakar enak Iho!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Saya masih kenyang, Tante,” sahut Mira. Karena ada Mama, mau
tak mau Mira harus sarapan di rumah. Jika tidak, Mama pasti mengomel. Mira
terpaksa menyantap nasi goreng walau lidah dan perutnya belum kepingin makan.
Masih lebih baiklah, daripada dia sarapan nasihat Mama. Bisa pusing sepanjang
han kalau pagi-pagi telinganya sudah disembur omelan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly berlari kecil menghampiri Mira. “Hai, Mir” sapa Kelly
riang. “Ya ampun... tampangmu kusut benar pagi ni. Sudah mandi belurn sih?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira memonyongkan bibir. “lh, enak saja! Sudah man- di dong.
Tapi lupa sabunan,” ujarnya cuek sambil mel angkah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly menjejeri langkah Mira. Pandangan Mira tidak fokus.
Beberapa kali dia hampir menabrak orang yang herpapasan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
dengannya. Bukannya minta
maaf pada orang yang hampir ditabraknya, Mira malah cemberut (Ian membisu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hei, kamu kenapa sih? Butuh obat ketawa? Puyer dosis tinggi
barangkali?” Kelly menggoda Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira melotot, kemudian menunduk lagi. Entah berapa kdli ujung
sepatunya menyepak kenikil yang dia temui di jalan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Lama-lama kamu mulai kayak Aol,” gumam Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“ldih... sembarangan!” Mira sewot mendengar perk ataan
sahabatnya itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira nyengir. “Son... aku kan hanya bercanda. Soaln ya pagi
ini tampangmu masam banget. Trus, kerikil nggak salah kok disepak-sepak.
Kasihan, kan?” Kelly lagi-lagi mencoba melucu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menghela napas. “Aku takut sekali, takut gagal hari ini.”
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh... han mi pengumuman lomba, ya? Wah, aku yakin kamu
menang, Mir! Kamu pinter, teliti, pandai merangkai kata. Jadi aku yakin kamulah
pemenaflgflYa. Kalau kamu nggak menang, pasti jurinya salah baca tuh! Atau
jangan.iaflgan ada peserta yang lebih pintar daripada kamu? Ah, tapi itu nggak
mungkin, kan?” cerocos Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira berhenti, kemudian menatap Kelly sehingga sahabatnya itu
jadi salah tingkah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hehe, memangnya ada yang salab dengan kata-kataku ya?” tanya
Kelly sambil nyengir cemas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Nggak usah ikut-ikutan
menuntut kayak mamaku deh!” balas Mira, lalu Ia kembali berjalan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly terpaku sesaat, kemudiar mengelar sahabatflYa. Saat
sampai di depan rumah Riku, terlihat cowok itu tersenyum di depan gerbang
sambil memegang koran pagi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Pagi, Mira! Ada kabar bagus untukmu!” kata Riku. Mira
berusaha merebut koran di tangan Riku, tapi cowok itu menang cepat menghmndari
gerakan gesit Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Please deh!” seru Mira tak sabar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Eits, janji dulu, kamu akan mentraktir kami kalau kamu jadi
salah satu juaranya.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Yang namanya juara itu cuma satu! Aku tidak mengenal istilah
juara dua atau tiga. Kalau aku di urutan kedua atau ketiga, bagiku itu bukan
juara!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku tercengang. “Sungguh? Tapi... yang kedua dan ketiga suatu
saat bisa menjadi yang pertama, Mir! Kegagalan adalah sukses yang tertunda.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Katakan itu pada mamaku!” bentak Mira. Kemudian i merebut
koran dan tangan Riku. Cowok itu menyerah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mata Mira melotot, tangannya bergetar hebat hingga koran di
tangannya terjatuh. Sesaat kemudian, air mata mengalir di kedua pipinya. Mira
berlari. Dadanya sesak. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly bengong melihat reaksi sahabatnya. Dia tidak mengira
Mira bisa sangat terpukul seperti itu. Kelly menatap Riku penuh tanya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Dia juara dua,” kata Riku
pelan, lebih menyerupai gumaman. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh my God! Dunia bakal kiamat!” seru Kelly, kemudian berlari
mengejar Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mau tak mau Riku ikut berlari. Mereka bagaikan orang yang
tengah berkejaran sehingga membuat penasaran orang-orang di sekitar mereka.
Apalagi sesampainya di sekolah Mira tak juga mengurangi kecepatan larinya.
Ditambah dengan air mata yang bercucuran di pipi Mira, adegan lari tiga kawanan
itu semakin mencuri perhatian. Tapi Mira tak peduli. Hatinya benar-benar kalut.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Akhirnya Mira berhenti dan duduk di bangku semen di pinggir
lapangan sepak bola, tempat dia dan Kelly biasa menghabiskan bekal makanan.
Mira termenung. Air mata yang tadi mengucur deras kini telah kering. Riku dan
Kelly duduk mengapit Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mengapa harus bersedih, Mir? Ratusan karya masuk ke meja juri
dan menjadi pesaingmu. Bahkan, mereka tidak masuk menjadi pemenang urutan berapa
pun. Kamu di urutan kedua. Kedua dan ratusan karya!” Riku memberi penekanan
pada kalimat terakhir. “Kamu hebat! Wajar bila Aoi juara satu, karena sejak
kelas tiga SMP dia mengikuti lomba ini, meskipun belum pernah menang
sebelumnya. Namun hari ini, setelah berkali-kali ikut, dia jadi pemenangnya.
Aku yakin kamu baru pertama kali ml ikut lomba tersebut, dan langsung juara
dua. Kamu sangat hebat, Mm!” hibur Riku penuh sem angat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menatap tajam pada Riku. “Jadi... juara satunya Aoi? Si
robot yang menyebalkan itu? Tadi aku hanya melihat namaku, tidak baca nama
lain.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Namanya ada kok. Kamu aja
yang nggak memperhatikan.” Riku mengangguk. “Yang penting, ini prestasi besar
bagi sekolah kita karena dua siswanya mengharumkan nama sekolah.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku ikut lomba bukan untuk sekolah, tapi untuk Mama!” balas
Mira ketus. Dengan kasar dientakkannya tubuhnya ketika berdiri, kemudian dia
beranjak pergi ,tanpa berkata-kata. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku dan Kelly bengong kayak kepompong. Bahkan Riku tak habis
pikir, bagaimana bisa seseorang tidak berbahagia saat dinmnya dinyatakan jadi
juara, hanya karena jadi juara kedua? Riku menggeleng-geleng bingung. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kenapa sih dia begitu? Dapat juara dua kok justru kayak orang
depresi gitu?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mamanya menuntut dia menjadi yang pertama, cIilam hal apa
pun. Di kamus mama Mira, nggak ada kilah kedua. Mira teman yang sangat balk dan
men yenangkan, tapi di rumah dia tertekan,” balas Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kasihan... apalagi yang jadi juara satu Aol, Mira pisti
tambah kesal. Terlebih dia selalu bersikap buruk pida Aoi karena tidak menyukai
cowok itu,” Riku mendesah sedih. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hmm, pasti akan ada pertempuran sengit nih. Mira lalu ingin
jadi yang pertama, terbaik, dan terdepan. Dia begitu terobsesi menjadi nomor
satu, makanya dia ..sampai kurang gaul gitu. Heran deh, padahal dia pintar.
Kurang apa lagi, coba? Aku aja yang rada o&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;ms mincho&amp;quot;; mso-ascii-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;‟&lt;/span&gt;on gini inasih nyanai... ,”
cerocos Kelly.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Riku tersenyum mendengar
ocehan Kelly. Benar kata Mira, ternyata Kelly memang terlalu banyak bicara
alias cerewet! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Jantung Mira berdebar kencang. Kakinya gemetar ketika melewati
pintu masuk rumah. Benar saja, yang dia takutkan jadi kenyataan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kenapa bisa begini, Mira?” tanya sebuah suara. Tegas dan
begitu mengintimidasi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira berhenti. Bahkan dia tidak berani menatap mata orang yang
barusan menyapanya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama berdiri tegak di depan Mira. Tangannya mengacungkan
sehelai koran. Mira sudah tahu, Mama pasti memburu koran han itu demi melihat
pengumuman hasil lomba. Begitu tahu Mira hanya juara kedua, pasti Mama marah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Siapa Aoi? Dia satu sekolah denganmu, tapi kenapa dia yang
menang? Bukankah Mama sudah menekankan padamu untuk selalu jadi yang terbaik?
Pasti kamu tidak berusaha sungguh-sungguh sampai bisa kalah dan anak bernama
Aoi itu!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira membisu. Mendengar marnanya menyebut nama Aoi, hati Mira
geram. Kalau sebelumnya dia hanya sebatas kesal melihat wajah Aoi yang masam,
kali itu dia betul-betul marah pada cowok itu. Awas saja, akan kubalas sakit
hatiku ini!. Jangan harap kamu bisa hidup tenang, Aoi! batin Mira
menyumpah-nyumpah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ingat, Mira, Mama sungguh kecewa padamu. Pokoknya tahun ini
Mama ingin melihat karnu jadi pemenang. Ikut sebanyak-banyaknya lomba, dan
jadilah juara. Tidak ada artinya jika kamu &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
hanya jadi yang kedua.
Buktikan pada Mama kamu memang anak Mama yang hebat!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kepala Mira semakin tertunduk. Kata-kata dan suara Mama
menusuk-nusuk gendang telinganya. Kepalanya pusing seketika. Obsesi Mama untuk
menjadikan dirinya juara betul-betul meneror mentalnya. Ah, Mira sungguh capek!
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
BERJAM-JAM membenamkan wajah di bantal sambil menangis
betul-betul menguras energi. Dada sesak, mata pedas, dan suasana hati panas.
Menyebalkan! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku nggak boleh cengeng!” gumam Mira. “Daripada suntuk di
rumah, mendingan aku ke rumah Kelly saja.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira bangkit dan tempat tidur dan bersiap-siap mandi. Ia
memilih baju berwama ceria: T-shirt garis-garis merah dan krem, serta celana
jins selutut. Sepatu kanvas merah melengkapi penampilannya. Sporty dan nyaman. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Walau pikiran masih ruwet, Mira bersenandung saat mandi dan
berdandan. Lumayan mengurangi kesedihan. Ah, kalau boleh jujur, hati Mira masih
mendung. Namun, cewek itu tak mau larut dalam kesedihan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira bergegas ke luar kamar, ingin cepat-cepat sarnpai di
rumah Kelly. Namun, betapa kaget Mira saat membuka pintu rumah. Kelly dan Riku
tengah duduk di bangku teras. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kalian... ?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aih... kok segitu kagetnya sih, Mir? Biasa aja, kali!”
celetuk Kelly nyengir. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Kami mau mengajakmu
jalan-jalan,” kata Riku seraya hangkit dan duduk. “Mau, kan?” Mira tersenyum
lebar. Dia memeluk Kelly. “Kelly, kamu sungguh pengertian. Aku baru saja mau ke
rumahmu, eh kalian justru ke sini.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh, ya? Kebetulan banget dong kalau gitu. Yuk buruan, sopirku
menunggu!” ajak Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sepanjang perjalanan mereka mengobrol banyak hal. Rupanya
Kelly dan Riku memang berniat menghibur Mira. Tak henti-henti keduanya
melemparkan lelucon. Mira benar-benar merasakan hangatnya persahabatan. Apalagi
sekarang ada Riku yang sangat baik dan perh atian pada Mira. Walau baru kenal,
Riku cepat mengakrabinya tanpa canggung. Riku terkesan dewasa di mata Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Eh... omong-omong, kita mau ke mana?” tanya Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Jalan-jalan ke mal, sekalian makan malam, biar kamu nggak
bete dan nggak perlu minum obat pembuat tawa!” balas Riku sambil menoleh pada
Mira yang duduk di belakangnya. Mira tersenyum. “Terima kasih ya, Ri!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Yap!” balas Riku tersenyum. Hatinya berbunga-bunga karena
dapat kesempatan jalan-jalan bersama Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tuh, Riku baik banget kan, Mir?” bisik Kelly. “He-eh,” balas
Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly tersenyum-senyum sendiri, kemudian mengajak Riku ngobrol
tentang hobi masing-masing. Mira mencoba jadi pendengar yang balk. Dalam hati
ia bersyukur punya sahabat yang menopangnya saat ia jatuh. Mira tak lagi merasa
sendirian. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Walau mungkin hanya sesaat
saja dia bersenang-senang dan harus kembali berhadapan dengan Mama sepulangnya
dari jalan-jalan, setidaknya Mira terhibur. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sesampainya di mal, mereka main di game center. Mira tidak
begitu berselera bermain. Temyata tidak mudah membuang gundah. Mira seperti
linglung. Kepalanya celingukan mengamati tingkah remaja-remaja yang tengah
bermain, namun tatapannya nyaris kosong. Mira merasa sepi di tengah keramaian. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ayo, Mir, gantian kamu yang main!” ajak Riku begitu game
over. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menggeleng. “Aku lagi nggak kepingin main, Ri. Aku mau
keliling-keliling dulu, ya. Kamu main lagi aja sama Kelly.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku mendesah kecewa, tapi dia mengerti suasana hati Mira.
Maka diberikannya senyum termanisnya buat Mira. “Oke, tapi jangan sampai
nyasar, ya. Kalau setengah jam lagi kamu nggak balik ke sini, aku lapor ke
bagian informasi Iho. Namamu bakal berkumandang ke seantero mal ini. Hihihi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ah, biar saja. Biar kondang sekalian!” balas Mira sambil
melengos dan berlalu, meninggalkan Riku yang bengong melihat tingkah cuek Mira.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira berjalan-jalan di sekitar arena game center. Pikirannya
masih digelayuti peristiwa seharian tadi: kalah lomba dan kemarahan Mama. Tak
ada hal yang lebih menarik bagi Mira selain menjadi juara dan kebanggaan Mama.
Mira selalu berpikir, Mama sibuk bekerja di luar kota karena Mira kurang bisa
dibanggakan. Mungkin Mira tak cukup berarti bagi Mama. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Seseorang yang tidak cukup
berarti mudah ditinggalkan dan dilupakan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sungguh Mira sangat menyayangi Mama. Makanya dia mati-matian
mencoba menyenangkan hati Mama. Memang terselip juga perasaan takut pada Mama.
Mama keras dalam mendidik putrinya sehingga Mira sering tertekan. Namun entah
mengapa, Iama-kelamaan obsesi Mama menjadi obsesinya juga. Jauh di lubuk hati,
Mira pun tergila.gila menjadi yang pertama dalam segala hal. Mungkin itu yang
dinamakan faktor genetik. Mira mewarisi sifat mamanya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangkat bahu. Terus-terusan berpikir tentang hal itu
membuat kepalanya pusing. Baiklah, aku harus mencoba santai. Mumpung di mal,
mendingan aku belanja barang yang kusukai. Daripada stres tidak jelas, tak ada
salahnya bersenang-senang, pikir Mira. Ia menuju bagian fashion remaja. T-shirt
dan jins pakalan kebangsaan Mira, tapi kali itu dia ingin mencoba sesuatu yang
baru untuk mengusir jenuh. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kalau aku pakai gaun, bagus nggak ya? batin Mira sambil
tertawa kecil. Hihihi, tak ada salahnya kucoba! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menyambangi bagian gaun remaja. Lucu juga rasanya.
Sebelumnya, jika menemani Kelly membeli baju, Mira dibuat mati bosan saat
sahabatnya itu berulang kali minta pendapatnya. Bagus yang polkadot atau yang
gambar hati? Manis yang pink atau hijau muda? Aduuuh... cute banget! Jadi
pengen beli semuanya! Seperti itu ocehan Kelly ketika memilih baju. Lebay!
Biasanya Mira geleng-geleng atau malah merutuk gemas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Kini Mira kebingungan
sendiri. Koleksi baju yang kecewek-cewekan itu lucu-lucu. Variasi model, motif,
dan warna sungguh menarik. Seperti apa penampilan Mira saat mengenakan gaun?
Haha, pasti aneh. Rambut Mira kan cepak. Ditambah pembawaannya yang tomboi,
sudah pasti Mira bakal terlihat ajaib. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Apa aku coba dulu aja ya? Siapa tahu cocok. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira geli sendiri. Namun dibawanya juga dua gaun ke kamar pas.
Satu gaun kerut di bagian dada dan memakai tali bahu, satu lagi gaun bergaya
vintage tanpa lengan dan berkerah runcing. Mira agak ragu saat berjalan menuju
kamar pas. Sesekali ia menoleh ke sekeliling, takut kepergok Riku dan Kelly,
atau kenalan yang mungkin sedang berkeliaran di mal ini. Maklum, Mira
menganggap dirinya sedang bersikap konyol. Tapi tak apalah, buat variasi hidup,
pikir Mira. Mira mematut diri di depan cermin. Hahaha, aneh sekali! Ingin
rasanya dia tertawa sampai puas, tapi takut didatangi pramuniaga atau satpam.
Terpaksa dia menahan tawa dengan menggigit bibir. Mumpung sendirian di kamar
ganti, Mira bergaya bak foto model yang tengah berpose untuk pemotretan sampul
majalah. Lagi-lagi, tawa Mira hampir meledak. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Bertingkah konyol ternyata kadang diperlukan untuk membuat
rileks pikiran. Karena itu, Mira tak ragu-ragu membawa dua gaun yang telah
dicobanya ke meja kasir. Dia bisa mencobanya lagi di rumah sepulang nanti.
Bahkan komplet sambil berlenggak-lenggok Seperti peragawati di catwalk. Mira
tersenyum sendini memikirkan hal itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hai!” Seseorang menepuk punggung Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira terlonjak kaget. Kelly
dan Riku berdiri di belakangnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ups... buru-buru Mira menyembunyikan tas belanjaan ke belakang
tubuhnya. Usaha yang sia-sia, tentu saja. Untunglah dua temannya itu datang
setelah kasir selesai memasukkan belanjaan. “Eh, belanja apa tuh?” Kelly
melongok ingin tahu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Cuma kaus kaki,” jawab Mira asal saja. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Beli berapa pasang? Perasaan kok isinya tebal amat?” Kelly
menyelidik. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ah, mau tahu aja!” Mira melengos, lalu berjalan cepat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mau tak mau Kelly dan Riku ikut berjalan cepat menyusul Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Eh, jangan lupa, kita makan dulu,” kata Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya, Mir. Udah lapar nih!” kata Kelly sambil menjejeri
langkah Mira. “Kamu sih, tadi nggak ikutan ngegame. Tumben nggak menggunakan
otakmu untuk mengalahkan lawan dalam permainan, hehehe. Kamu pasti bosan ya,
selalu jadi pemenang kalau lawan aku?” cerocos Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira manyun dan berjalan makin cepat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lh... sensi amat sih?” Kelly heran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku menepuk punggung Kelly. “Mira masih kalut. Saat ini dia
tidak butuh kata-kata. Sebaliknya, dia butuh telinga yang siap mendengarkan
jeritan hatinya. Yuk, kita susul dia. Kita beri dia kesempatan curhat biar
hatinya plong.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Kelly mengangguk, lalu
buru-buru menyusul Mira. Mereka menuju food court dan mengambil tempat di
pojokan. Untunglah food court tidak terlalu ramai karena bukan malam Minggu.
Seandainya tadi Mama tidak berangkat lagi ke luar kota, mana mungkin Mira berani
keluar malam sementara besoknya harus sekolah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ayo, pesen yuk!” ajak Kelly tidak sabar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nanti dulu. Ada teman yang akan bergabung sebentar lagi,”
kata Riku. “Dia yang akan traktir kita.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Wah, asyiiik!” pekik Kelly, sementara Mira hanya mengangkat
bahu dan kembali melamun. “Sudah lama menunggu?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sebuah suara membuyarkan lamunan Mira. Dia mendongak, menatap
si empunya suara. Raut wajahnya langsung berubah marah begitu melihat siapa
yang datang. Aoi. Cowok congkak itu berdiri tanpa senyum dan tak sedikit pun
melihat pada Mira. Dia langsung menarik kursi kosong dan mendudukmnya. Kursi
itu tepat berada di hadapan Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tidak sendiri. Dia datang bersama Mei, teman sekelas Aoi
dan Riku. Mei yang cantik dan kerap jadi model sampul majalah itu sangat ramah.
Dengan hangat dia menyapa Mira dan Kelly sambil menebar senyum. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nah, ini dia orang yang akan mentraktir kita!” seru Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya, kalian boleh makan apa saja Iho!” balas Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Apa-apaan nih?” tanya Mira bingung bercampur geram. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Hmm... ternyata ada kamu di
sini.” Komentar Aoi jelas menampakkan ketidaksukaannya. “Tapi nggak apa-apa
kok, itung-itung bagi rezeki. Aku mentraktir kalian karena hari ini aku menang
lomba karya ilmiah,” jelas Aoi sambil melirik Mira, seolah menyindir cewek itu.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku akan bayar sendiri makananku! Aku nggak mau ditraktir
dia!” balas Mira ketus. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh, silakan saja. Aku juga malas mengeluarkan uang untuk
cewek ketus kayak kamu!” balas Aoi tak kalah sengit. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Lho, Mira kan juga juara. Harusnya kita makan dua kali nih
karena ada dua juara!” seru Mei mencoba mencairkan suasana. Tawanya yang renyah
ikut memamerkan sederetan gigi putih dan rapi. Ah, Mei memang cantik sekali. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tahun depan aku akan traktir kalian semua di restoran mahal.
Karena saat itu akulah juaranya,” balas Mira tak mau kalah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Heh! Sudah-sudah! Kita berkumpul di sini kan untuk makan!”
lerai Riku sambil bangkit. “Aoi, kupesankan sekalian ya?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly juga beranjak mengikuti Riku sambil berkata ringan,
“Akan kupesankan untukmu juga, Mir!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku juga mau cari-cari makanan yang lezat, mumpung ditraktir
Aoi!” seru Mei, kemudian ngacir. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira dan Aoi tidak berkutik. Mereka duduk berhadapan, namun
sama-sama membuang muka ke arah lain. Keduanya diam dan cemberut. Suasana jadi
dingin dan kaku. Mira menyesal diajak jalan-jalan oleh Riku dan Kelly. Kalau
tahu dia bakal &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
dipertemukan dengan Aoi,
Iebih baik dia di rumah saja. Mira benar-benar kesal. Maksud hati menghibur
diri, kok justru jadi melihat Aoi merayakan kemenangan? Aaargh... sebal! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu nggak ngasih selamat buat aku?” akhimya Aoi buka suara. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira pura-pura tak mendengar, dia sok konsentrasi melihat
pengunjung food court yang lalu-lalang. Aoi tampak bersungut-sungut, tapi tak
mau menyerah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Memang, jadi pecundang nggak enak. Kalau memang kalah, kita
harus tetap sportif dan mengakui keunggulan lawan, bukannya jadi pengecut.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menatap tajam Aoi. “Kamu menyebalkan!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Yah... aku sadar, bagimu aku menyebalkan. Tapi aku punya otak
yang lebih cerdas daripada otakmu, yang isinya hanya satu, r, satu, alias IRI.”
Aoi mencibir. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Lihat saja nanti, saat aku seusiamu, aku akan jauh lebih
berprestasi dibandingkan kamu! Bahkan, sekarang saja aku sudah satu tingkat di
bawahmu. Padahal kita beda angkatan!” balas Mira sombong. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tersenyum mengejek. Matanya menyipit. “Tahu nggak? Usia
kita tuh sama. Aku masuk sekolah kemudaan setahun. Kamu tahu kenapa? Karena aku
terlalu cerdas!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira kehabisan kata-kata. Wajahnya pucat pasi, seolah ada yang
menampamya dengan keras di depan umum. Dia hendak beranjak pergi, tapi Riku dan
Kelly keburu datang. Mereka &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
mencegah Mira. Setengah hati
Mira kembali duduk. Walau kesal tak terkira, dia menghargai usaha Riku dan
Kelly yang sudah mengajaknya jalan-jalan untuk menghiburnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira, kami sudah pesan makanan. Kalian berbaikan dong. Kita
kan satu sekolah, jadi siapa pun yang menang tidak masalah. Kalian sudah
mengharumkan nama sekolah. Aoi bukan pesaingmu, Mira,” Kelly mencoba
menasihati. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku menyesal satu sekolah dengan dia!” seru Mira ketus. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kalau aku senang banget satu sekolah denganmu,” balas Aoi.
“Kini jelas, aku bukan satu-satunya orang yang punya wajah tanpa senyum. Dengan
tampangmu yang seperti itu, jelas-jelas kamu mengganggu pem andangan orang,”
sindir Aoi pada Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kesal bukan kepalang, Mira pergi begitu saja tanpa memedulikan
Kelly yang berusaha mencegahnya. Kelly hampir saja mengikuti Mira, tapi Riku
mencekal lengannya. “Sudahlah, Kel. Biar dia tenang dulu. Biar dia belajar
menghadapi kegagalan dan mengendalikan perasaannya sendiri.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi dia sahabatku!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Sahabat yang baik nggak menjadi beban bagi sahabatnya, tapi
menjadi pendukung,” balas Riku. Kelly duduk kembali. Hatinya tak bisa kesal
karena wajah Riku begitu menawan. Yah, Kelly sangat menyukai Riku. Ia tak ingin
wajahnya terlihat jelek di hadapan Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Memangnya kamu ngomong apa sama Mira tadi?” tanya Kelly pada
Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Aoi mengangkat bahu. “Dasar
cewek sensi! Ikutan lomba baru pertama kali bisa langsung juara dua, kok masih
merasa kurang? Kalau mau jadi juara satu, ya harus berjuang lebih keras! Tapi tetap
saja butuh waktu. Aku memulainya jauh lebih awal daripada dia, wajar kalau aku
menang. Di luaran sana, bahkan ada yang ikut berkali-kali tapi jadi juara
harapan pun tidak. Namanya perlombaan, pasti ada yang menang dan kalah. Kalau
dia nggak siap menerima kekalahan, mendingan nggak usah ikut lomba deh” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly merengut mendengar ceramah Aoi. Bagaimanapun Mira
sahabatnya. Kelly tidak rela Aoi mengatan gatai Mira, walaupun perkataan Aoi
benar. “Ada yang kamu nggak tahu, Aoi,” desah Kelly. “Mira sebenarnya bisa
menerima kekalahan. Tapi tidak dengan mamanya. Itu makanya dia kalut.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tersenyum masam. Dalam hati timbul rasa kasihan pada Mira.
Tapi ia telanjur kesal pada kelakuan Mira saat di lapangan sepak bola waktu
itu. Cewek itu menyepelekannya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Lho, mana Mira?” Mei datang dan langsung mengambil tempat
duduk. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kabur. Nggak usah mikirin dia deh. Dasar cewek bete!” balas
Aoi bersungut-sungut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ehem... kamu apa-apain dia ya?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi mendelik pada Mei. “lya. Aku kerokin punggungnya pakai
palu!” jawabnya ketus. Riku dan Kelly ngikik. Mei mengerutkan kening, bingung
karena belum paham apa yang terjadi antara Mira dan Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Jadi, bagaimana nih? Nggak
apa-apa, Mira kita biarkan pergi?” Tak urung Kelly khawatir juga. “Sudahlah,
dia kan sudah besar. Nggak bakalan nyasar. Nanti kita cari Mira setelah kita
makan. Laper banget nih!” kata Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly mengangkat bahu dan mulai menyuap makanan ke mulut.
Namun suasana telanjur kaku. Mereka makan tanpa mengobrol sedikit pun. Mei
tidak bertanya lagi, walau sesekali matanya menyelidiki raut wajah
teman-temannya. Mungkin Mei sungkan pada Aoi. Cowok itu benar-benar bermuka
masam. Kalau tidak kelewat lapar seperti saat itu, mungkin Kelly tidak
berselera makan sama sekali. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Usai makan, Kelly melihat arloji. “Hampir jam sembilan nih.
Sebentar lagi mal tutup. Terus, Mira gimana? Kasihan kan dia kalau harus pulang
sendirian?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Halah, susah amat sih! Kamu kan bawa HP. Tinggal ditelepon
aja tuh anak, pastiin ada di mana sekarang,” kata Aoi ketus. “Lagian, pulang
sendiri juga apa susahnya. Taksi banyak kok.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lh, kamu kok gitu sih?” Kelly rada emosi. “Kasihan dia kalau
pulang naik taksi sendirian malam-malam. Kalau di jalan dirampok bagaimana?
Atau di.. di... huh!” Kelly bergidik sendiri. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Huss... jangan mikir yang nggak-nggak ah!” Mei ikutan
bergidik. “Betul kata Aoi, kamu telepon dulu aja. Dia ada di mana sekarang.
Supaya kita nggak susah nyarinya. Mal ini kan luas. Atau jangan-jangan tadi dia
langsung pulang naik taksi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oke deh, aku telepon sekarang.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Tangan Kelly merogoh isi tas.
Dahinya berkerut. Dia berhenti sejenak. Wajahnya tampak berpikir. Lalu, kembali
dirogohnya tas cangklong kecil itu. Kelly menggigit bibir. Dia meringis. “HP-ku
temyata ketinggalan di rumah, hehehe.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nggak hafal nomornya?” tanya Mei. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nomor HP-ku sendiri saja aku nggak hafal,” jawab Kelly lugu,
membuat Mei dan Riku tertawa. Sementara Aoi hanya tersenyum sinis. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Terus gimana dong? Riku, kamu punya nomor Mira, kan?” tanya
Mei. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nggak.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Jadi, sekarang kita harus cari Mira dulu nih?” tanya Mei
bingung. “Masalahnya, aku belum ngerjain PR!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya ampun! PR!” pekik Kelly panik. “Aku juga belum ngerjain PR
matematika! Aduh, bagaimana nih? Aku kan lemot kalau ngerjain matematika. Satu
soal aja mesti mikir setengah jam lebih. Alamat nggak tidur sampai besok dong!”
rengek Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku tertawa. “Hahaha, ada-ada aja kamu, Kelly. Ya sudah. Kamu
pulang duluan sama Aoi dan Mei aja deh. Biar aku sendiri yang cari Mira. Tapi
ingat, begitu sampai rumah, kamu telepon Mira untuk memastikan. Siapa tahu dia
memang betul sudah di rumah. Lalu, segera telepon aku, ya. Aku nggak akan
berhenti mencari Mira sebelum dapat konfirmasi darimu. Tapi semoga saja aku
bisa menemukan Mira sebelum kamu sampai di rumah.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Oke. Aku minta nomor HP-mu
dong,” pinta Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku menuliskan nomor HP-nya di tisu, lalu menyodorkannya pada
Kelly. “Jangan dipakai buat ngelap ingus, ya,” selorohnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly tertawa kecil. Bagaimana mungkin buat ngelap ingus? kata
Kelly dalam hati. Tisu ini bakal disimpan di bawah bantal, siapa tahu bisa
mimpiin Riku. Kelly senyum-senyum sendiri memikirkan hal itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hai, malah cengengesan!” tegur Mei. “Yuk, pulang. Kudu
cepat-cepat ngerjain PR biar besok bisa bangun pagi nih!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oke deh!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Akhirnya Kelly, Aoi, dan Mei memisahkan diri dan Riku. Riku
sebenarnya bingung mau mencari Mira ke mana. Tapi karena mal sudah mau tutup,
cowok itu memutuskan untuk berdiri di depan pintu utama. Dia mengamati
orang-orang yang mulai berbondong keluar. Lama Riku mematung dengan mata
jelalatan, namun sosok yang dicarinya tak juga muncul. Hingga rombongan pegawai
mal keluar, Mira belum juga nongol. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Oh, apa aku langsung ke parkiran saja? Jangan-jangan Mira
menunggu di dekat mobil, pikir Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku memarkir mobil di luar mal, jadi dia tidak perlu masuk
kembali untuk menuju tempat parkir. Suasana di jalan masih ramai. Para pegawai
bergerombol sambil bercanda ria selagi menunggu angkutan umum atau jemputan
pacar. Begitu juga para keluarga yang habis berbelanja kebutuhan sehari-hari
atau sekadar refreshing, dan para remaja yang sedang hang-out atau pacaran.
Riku tersenyum melihat sepasang remaja yang tengah &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
duduk di taman. Mereka asyik
ngobrol sambil ngemil kentang goreng. Sesekali tawa meledak, dan si cewek
menghujani tubuh cowoknya dengan cubitan mesra. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku tertegun. Di bangku di sebelah sepasang muda-mudi itu,
seorang gadis berambut pendek tampak duduk melamun. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Dengan hati-hati Riku menyapa gadis itu. “Mira? Untunglah aku
menemukanmu di sini,” sapanya sambil duduk di samping Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menoleh sejenak pada Riku, kemudian kembali berpaling ke
arah semula. Dia masih sedih dan kesal. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kami mengkhawatirkanmu, tapi sengaja nggak mengikutimu tadi.
Soalnya kamu pasti ingin sendirian.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kelly mana?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Dia pulang duluan sama Aoi dan Mei. Katanya dia belum
mengerjakan PR matematika.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Anak itu,” desis Mira, “selalu saja menunda mengerjakan PR
sampai malam terakhir. Ujung-ujungnya, tengah malam atau dini hari dia kerap
meneleponku, meminta jawaban yang benar.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hah? Sampai segitunya?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tertawa kecil. Ketegangan di wajahnya mulai cair. “Benar.
Kelly memang sering bersikap konyol. Tapi, dia baik dan lugu. Aku senang
bersahabat dengannya. Keluarganya pun hangat dan ramah. Apalagi mamanya, baik
sekali. Masakan mama Kelly tak ada duanya deh!” Mira berbicara berapi-api. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Riku tersenyum lebar. Dia
senang melihat wajah Mira cerah kembali. Tapi tak lama kemudian Mira kembali
muram. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Seandainya mamaku seperti mama Kelly,” gumam Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ssstt... nggak balk membanding-bandingkan orangtua. Semua
orangtua pasti menginginkan yang terbaik bagi anaknya. Begitu juga mamamu.
Hanya mungkin saja caranya tidak sesuai dengan keinginanmu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangkat bahu. “Aku capek harus selalu jadi yang nomor
satu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kalau begitu, ya berhenti aja. Kamu nggak harus selalu
menuruti orangtuamu jika memang membuat jiwamu lelah. Pelan-pelan, berilah
pengertian pada mamamu. Aku yakin mamamu akan mengerti.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menggeleng sedih. “Kamu nggak mengerti mamaku, Ri. Dia
sangat ambisius. Keras. Dan kamu tahu, yang membuat segalanya menjadi sulit
karena...,” Mira berhenti sejenak, menghela napas berat, “di dalam diriku ada
sifat mamaku. Walau Ielah, temyata aku menginginkannya, Ri. Menjadi juara,
menjadi nomor satu, menjadi pemimpin. Hal-hal tersebut menguasal pikiranku.
Saat ini aku memikirkan untuk...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Apa yang kamu pikirkan, Mir?” Riku tidak sabar ingin tahu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Menjadi ketua OSIS.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku mendesah.” Itu tujuanmu murni atau sekadar menjegal Aoi
yang juga mencalonkan diri?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Aoi mencalonkan din jadi
ketua OSIS?” Mira mendelik jengkel. “Dia lagi... dia lagi...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku mengangguk. “Kukira kamu sudah tahu. Tapi kamu
mencalonkan diri memang kepingin atau karena mamamu? Atau lebih konyol lagi,
untuk balas dendam pada Aoi?” Riku menatap tajam mata Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangkat bahu. “Entahlah. Tapi kurasa Mama akan bangga
kalau aku terpilih jadi ketua OSIS.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Jadi, kamu melakukan semua hal karena mamamu? Kapan kamu
melakukan untuk dirimu sendiri? Motivasim u hanya agar dibanggakan mamamu,
bukan karena kamu ingin belajar berorganisasi dan mengembangkan din. Dangkal
sekali, Mira.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Biar saja. Dan sekarang, setelah tahu Aoi mencalonkan diri,
hmm... mungkin kamu benar. Aku ingin balas dendam pada cowok masam itu!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Itu konyol, Mira!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menunduk. Kata-kata Riku benar dan kebenaran itu sangat
menyakitkan Mira. Tiba-tiba Mira malu pada Riku yang begitu dewasa dan
bijaksana. Tidak seperti remaja pada umumnya, pemikiran dan sikap Riku jauh
lebih dewasa. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Terima kasih, Riku. Aku tahu kata-katamu benar. Tapi aku
belum bisa menerima kekalahan dari Aoi. Aku ingin membuktikan bahwa aku lebih
hebat daripada dia.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku mendesah, “Kamu ambisius, Mira. Cobalah melakukan sesuatu
karena dirimu, bukan harena hal-hal di luar dirimu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Kalah atau menang, kamu tetap
puas, karena kamu belajar dan prosesnya, bukan mencari hasil semata.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menerawang jauh, bagaimanapun dia belum bisa menerima
saran Riku. Tidak kali ini. Mira akan berjuang mati-matian untuk menjadi ketua
OSIS. Dia berjanji melakukan itu untuk kepuasan dirinya, bukan untuk mamanya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oke, kita ke mobilku yuk! Sopirku menunggu. Oh iya, ada
baiknya kamu telepon Kelly, supaya dia nggak cemas. Tadi HP-nya ketinggalan,
dan aku memintanya untuk menghubungimu setibanya di rumah.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangguk, kemudian mencoba tersenyum pada Riku, meski
belum berani menatap mata cowok itu yang selalu teduh. Mira masih malu, karena
dininya begitu lemah. Dikeluarkannya HP dan kantong celana dan dicarinya nomor
Kelly. Namun, HP Mira keburu berbunyi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kelly,” kata Mira pada Riku. “Halo, Kel...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira, kamu di mana? Baik-baik saja, kan? Aku khawatir sekali.
Kalo kamu hilang bagaimana? Nanti aku dimarahin mamamu deh! Eh, kamu sudah
sampai wmah keliling-keliling di mal? Riku belum sih? Atau masih nyariin kamu
tuh...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Stop, cereweeet! Aku sudah sama Riku nih!” potong Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira dan Riku terbahak-bahak Ah, untunglah malam itu berakhir
dengan tawa. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
BEBERAPA hari kemudian Mira sudah ceria kembali. Ia bernyanyi
riang dalam perjalanan ke sekolah. Kaki jenjangnya &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Iincah melompat dan berlan
kecil. Saat mampir ke rumah Kelly, ia meluangkan waktu untuk mencicipi masakan
ibu Kelly. Ia pun kembali pada kebiasaan lama: mencium pipi tembam Morati, adik
Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Wah, Tante senang sekali kamu kembali ceria, Mir! Kamu
cantiiik banget kalau tidak cemberut.” Ibu Kelly mencubit gemas pipi Mira
sambil tertawa renyah. Wajah Mira bersemu merah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Terima kasih, Tante. Emang saya aslinya cantik sih!” Mira
mengerling. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lh, genit!” Kelly pura-pura mencibir. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hahaha!” Mira tertawa senang. “Kami berangkat dulu ya, Tante.
Dah, Morati sayang!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hati-hati!”Mira dan Kelly berlari kecil sambil tertawa-tawa.
Seperti biasa, Riku menanti mereka di jalan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Pagi semua!” sapa Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Pagi, Riku!” balas Mira dan Kelly bersamaan. Kemudian mereka
meneruskan perjalanan sambil bersenda gurau. Kelly berjalan di sisi Riku,
sedangkan Mira berjalan sendirian di depan mereka. Langkah Mira terlalu cepat
untuk diimbangi langkah Kelly. Namun, untuk menjejeri Mira, Riku tak tega pada
Kelly, sekalipun Riku ingin sekali berdampingan dengan Mira. Terpaksalah posisi
jalan ketiganya tetap seperti itu hingga di sekolah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mir...,” bisik Kelly saat mereka sampai di kelas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Hm?” Mira duduk bersandar di
kursi sambil meluruskan kedua kaki. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Riku cakep banget ya! Baik, lagi. Rasanya aku jatuh cinta deh
sama dia,” kata Kelly sambil menatap langit-langit kelas. Senyumnya mengembang.
Sepertinya dia tengah membayangkan sesuatu. Mira menatap sahabatnya dengan
perasaan aneh. Mendadak lidahnya kelu. Ia tak tahu harus berkata apa. Kelly
jatuh cinta pada Riku? Kenapa hati Mira jadi tak keruan rasanya? Apa Mira
cemburu? Ah, tapi Mira tidak mencintai Riku. Mira yakin dirinya hanya mengagumi
Riku. Atau... atau Mira merasa dirinya ditendang keluar dan hati Kelly,
kemudian digantikan sosok Riku? Atau... atau karena Mira belum pernah merasakan
jatuh cinta pada siapa pun dan tak rela sahabatnya punya pacar duluan? Jadi,
siapa yang dicemburui Mira sebenarnya? &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mir, kok kamu melamun sih? Jangan-jangan...” Kelly menatap
curiga pada Mira. Kemudian dia melotot. “Oh, Mira! Jangan bilang kamu juga suka
Riku ya!” Mira membulatkan mata. Tangannya berkacak pinggang. Ditatapnya Kelly
dengan galak, lalu disemburkann ya kata-kata, “Ck ck ck... sembarangan! Makan
tuh Riku!” Kelly nyengir. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Serius, kamu nggak naksir dia?” tanyanya memelas. Mira
berdecak sekali lagi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Lalu, dengan overacting dia berkata, “Kelly-ku yang baik, aku
mengagumi Riku. Dia sahabat yang baik bagi kita, bukan? Tapi itu bukan naksir.
Kalau kamu suka dia, tembak secepatnya sebelum Riku disambar sahabatmu yang
cantik dan baik ini!” Mira memeletkan lidah, menggoda Kelly. Kelly ngikik. Mira
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
tersenyum, kemudian menepuk
punggung Kelly. “Tenang aja deh, sobat. Riku milikmu, hehehe.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi, bagaimana cara menembaknya ya?” Kelly garuk-garuk dahi
tak jelas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ambil senapan. Taruh moncongnya di dada Riku, kemudian tank
pelatuknya. Gampang, kan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ah, Miraaaa!” Kelly kesal. “Aku serius, tauuu!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Yah, mana aku tahu. Aku kan belum pemah nembak cowok!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hehe, iya ya...” Lagi-lagi Kelly menggaruk dahi yang tidak
gatal. Hari itu Kelly menjadi sangat aneh. Saat pelajaran tengah berlangsung
dia sering tersenyum sendiri dan tidak berkonsentrasi pada materi yang
diajarkan guru. Begitu ada kesempatan bicara dengan Mira, yang dibicarakan
Kelly hanyalah Riku. Riku, Riku, dan Riku, nggak ada yang lain. Sampai-sampai
Mira sesak napas karena udara seakan terpolusi nama Riku. Huh, menyebalkan kalo
sahabat sedang jatuh cinta! rutuk Mira dalam hati. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
*** &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu sadar nggak sih bahwa kamu beda banget sekarang,” kata Mira
saat dia dan Kelly sedang bersantai di kamar Mira yang luas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Masa sih? Beda bagaimana?” Kelly penasaran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Sejak kamu jatuh cinta pada
Riku, setiap hari kerjamu melamun terus. Sambil senyum-senyum sendiri, lagi.
Kayak orang nggak waras. Hiiy!” Mira mengedikkan bahu, pura-pura jijik. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lh, yang benar?” Kelly meringis. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Iya. Aku sampai mau meledak nih, karena kebanyakan mendengar
nama Riku. Tiap hari sampai berapa juta kali nama Riku keluar dan mulutmu?
Kayak di dunia ini nggak ada nama lain aja,” omel Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ih, lebay!” seru Kelly manyun. “Di dunia ini memang banyak
nama lain. Cowok ganteng juga banyak. Tapi yang terganteng dan terkeren cuma
Riku. Riku is the best deh!” Kelly ikutan lebay. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“liiihh!” Mira terbawa gemes. Kelly terbahak-bahak melihat tingkah
sahabatnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tenang, pren. Aku masih waras kok.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“By the way busway, serius nih, kamu suka Riku? Apa sih yang
kamu sukai dan dia?” selidik Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya. Aku jatuh cinta betulan kali ini. Semua yang ada pada
dia aku suka. Aku suka matanya, hidungnya, kulitnya, tubuhnya, senyumnya,
tingkah lakunya, bahasa tubuhnya, cara berpikirnya, caranya memandang dunia,
caranya berpakaian, gerakan alisnya saat bicara, giginya yang putih, hidungnya
yang mancung...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Suka bulu hidungnya sekalian nggak?” potong Mira. Kalau
dibiarkan, Kelly bisa nyerocos sampai satu jam penuh. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Oh... iya! Aku juga suka
bulu hidungnya yang radar ada nongol ke luar. Menurutku seksi, tau! Trus kalau
dia sedang nyanyi, badannya rada goyang-goyang gitu deh. lh, keren sekali. Aku
juga suka cara berjalannya. Tiap berangkat sekolah dia berjalan di sampingku.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira buru-buru menutup telinga dengan headset dan mendengarkan
musik. Sepertinya tidak bisa dicegah lagi, Kelly tak akan berhenti bicara
tentang Riku sampai tenggorokannya serak. “Mira! Kamu nggak dengar ya?!” Kelly
sewot begitu menyadari sahabatnya itu memakai headset. Tangannya mencabut
headset di telinga Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Habis, kamu ngomongnya nyerocos kayak kereta api sih.
Telingaku sakit dan kepalaku hampir meledak mendengar nama Riku.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Trus, gimana dong? Aku berbunga-bunga nih. Kayaknya aku nggak
bakalan bisa deh hidup tanpa dia. Aduh... menurutmu dia akan menerimaku nggak?”
Mira sampai bengong melihat kelakuan Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya ampuuun! Sampai segitunya!” seru Mira sambil
geleng-geleng. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Yah, mana kita tahu kalau kamu nggak ngomong ke dia? Makanya
buruan tembak! Jadi kamu akan segera tahu dia suka sama kamu apa nggak!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kalau aku ditolak gimana? Kan tengsin!” Kelly menggigit
bibir. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Ya, terimalah penolakan itu
dan tetap bersahabat seperti sekarang. Gampang, kan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Gampang menurutmu. Kamu nggak ngerasain sih! Kamu belum pemah
jatuh cinta, kan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Udah. Aku jatuh cinta pada kucing, dan langsung patah hati
karena Mama nggak ngizinin aku piara kucing!” jawab Mira asal. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira! Serius nih!” Kelly mulai merajuk. Dia melemparkan
bantal ke arah Mira. “Jangan godain mulu, kenapa? Aku sungguh-sungguh sangat
serius sekali banget-banget.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Lebay!” sambar Mira sambil menjulurkan lidah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aaah!” Satu bantal kembali dilempar ke tubuh Mira. “Ya udah,
tembak aja kalo udah nggak tahan!” Kelly tiba-tiba merenung. Dia sedang
menimbang-nimbang. Mira mendengus kesal. Tiba-tiba hatinya khawatir. Kalau
Kelly jadian sama Riku, nanti dia kesepian dong?! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
*** &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Di luar dugaan Mira, hari berikutnya sepulang sekolah Kelly
mengajak Riku untuk bertemu di pojok lapangan. Wow! Mira tidak menyangka Kelly
seberani itu. Selama ini dia kira sarannya pada Kelly untuk nembak Riku
hanyalah pepesan kosong. Mira pikir Kelly tak akan berani. Mira gelisah. Apakah
itu artinya Mira takut kehilangan Kelly? Benarkah Mira belum &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
sanggup berbagi dengan Riku,
karena menjadi nomor dua di hati Kelly? Atau...? Ah, Mira tidak tahu. Harusnya
dia senang bila Kelly senang. Mengapa perasaannya jadi nggak kewan kayak begini
sih? Duh, sungguh Mira bingung bukan kepalang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menunggu Kelly di taman sekolah dekat gerbang. Kelly
tentu saja sedang nembak Riku di bawah pohon beringin di pojok lapangan bola.
Apa yang sedang terjadi ya? Kira-kira Kelly gugup nggak? Terus, Riku nerima
atau nolak? Ah... Kelly memang nekat! Kepala Mira penuh pertanyaan. Dia nggak
sabar ingin segera tahu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ngelamun aja!” Mira tersentak, tapi tak ingin segera menoleh
ke asal suara, walaupun jelas-jelas suara itu menyapa dirinya. Mira tahu itu
suara Aoi. Cewek itu hanya melirik malas. Terlihat Aoi tengah berdiri santai
sambil menyenderkan sisi tubuhnya pada tiang lampu taman. “Mikirin apa sih?”
tanya Aoi. Nadanya terkesan menyindir, bukan bertanya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Bukan urusanmu!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu nggak rela ya Riku jadi pacar sahabatmu?” Aoi tersenyum sinis.
“Jangan-jangan, kamu juga suka pada Riku.” Kini Aoi mencibir. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lh! Apa sih maumu? Kamu senang banget ya, bikin aku kesal!”
Mira mengentakkan kaki kanannya. Matanya memelototi Aoi. “Kamu juga udah
membuatku kesal dengan pencalonanmu itu!” desis Riku sambil menatap tajam Mira.
Mira gugup ditatap seperti itu. Tetapi ia tak ingin terlihat lemah di mata Aoi.
Disingkirkannya segenap perasaan aneh itu. Dia mendongak, menatap Aoi dengan
congkak. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Kenapa? Kamu takut kalah?
Kamu nggak mau melihatku jadi ketua OSIS ya? Hmm... berarti kamu takut bersaing
denganku dong!” Mira memasang senyum meremehkan. Aoi mencibir. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Lihat saja nanti, kamu akan menjadi nomor dua lagi, Nona
Jutek!” Aoi kemudian pergi. Apa? Nona jutek? Grrhh! Mira kesal sekali dengan
julukan yang diberikan Aoi. Enak saja aku dipanggil Nona jutek. Huh, dasar Tuan
Muka Masarn! Eh, tuan? Mira meralat pikirannya sendiri. Enak saja dipanggil
tuan. Cowok Muka Masam mungkin tepat bagi cowok menyebalkan itu. Menyebalkan...
yah, julukan yang lebih pas buat dia. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku akan jadi ketua, Mister M!” teriak Mira. “Lihat saja
nanti!” Aoi menghentikan langkah. Dia menoleh pada Mira dengan dahi berkerut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Apa kamu bilang tadi?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mister M, alias me-nye-bal-kan!” Mira memberi penekanan pada
setiap suku kata. Wajahnya nyengir puas. Aoi melipat muka sebelum berpaling dan
pergi. Bibimya ngedumel nggak jelas. Mira ngakak. Sungguh puas dan senang
hatinya karena berhasil membuat Aoi kesal. Rasain! Cowok sombong! rutuk Mira
dalam hati. Tawa Mira terhenti saat dia melihat pemandangan di parkiran. Aoi
memasuki mobil Mei. Ooh... jadi Mei pacar Aoi? Perasaan aneh mampir di hati
Mira. Apakah semua temannya punya pacar? Apakah hanya dia seorang yang belum
punya pacar? Dan sebentar lagi, apakah sahabatnya juga pacaran dengan Riku?
Jika mereka pacaran, pasti mereka lebih suka berduaan ketimbang bersama
dirinya. Hati Mira tiba-tiba kecut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“ADA apa, Kel?” Riku masih
tak mengerti, mengapa Kelly menyeretnya ke lapangan sekolah. Ingin berdua pula,
sedangkan Mira menunggu di taman. “Kamu mau minta diajarin main bola, ya?”
seloroh Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly menggeleng kaku. Wajahnya tegang sekali. Diseretnya Riku
ke bangku di pinggir lapangan. “Duduk di sini yuk, Rik.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku menurut. Hatinya mulai dag dig dug, merasa ada yang tidak
beres. Tapi dia memilih tidak mengatakan apa-apa sebelum Kelly mengucapkan
sesuatu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Rik... aku... aku...” Kelly sangat gugup. Wajahnya sudah
semerah udang rebus. Keringat bercucuran di kening, bahkan telapak tangannya
dingin. Duh, kok kakiku gemetar ya? keluh Kelly dalam hati. Untung saja dia
duduk. Kalau berdiri, mungkin sudah ambruk ke tanah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku menunggu. Ia menatap Kelly penuh perhatian. Riku
prihatin, mengira Kelly sakit. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ng... Ri, jangan ketawa, dulu ya...” Kelly berhenti lagi.
Batinnya merutuk. Sialan! Mau ngomong cinta ternyata rasanya kayak disidang di
depan guru BP dan kepala sekolah! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Apa kamu lihat aku sedang tertawa?” tanya Riku karena Kelly
tak juga mengeluarkan kata-kata lanjutan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly menggeleng. Kemudian dihelanya napas panjang,
dikumpulkannya segenap keberanian, dan dikeluarkannya kata-kata itu. Begitu
cepat meluncur dan bibir Kelly sebelum kemudian Kelly menutup wajah dengan
kedua telapak tangannya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Aku cinta kamu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Diam. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku tercengang. Dia mendengar Kelly mengucapkan kata itu,
tapi tak begitu yakin. Selain ucapan Kelly tak jelas, juga karena sesudahnya
Kelly menutupi wajah. Itu tadi betulan tidak? Kelly menembakku? pikir Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Bagaimana, Ri?” tanya Kelly, masih dengan wajah tertutup
telapak tangan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ha? Bagaimana apanya?” tanya Riku polos. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Perkataanku barusan...” Suara Kelly semakin lemah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tadi kamu ngomong apa sebenamya?” Riku tidak bermaksud
apa-apa, selain ingin mendengar kata-kata itu lebih jelas. Dia takut tadi salah
dengar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly jadi sebal. Riku tahu nggak sih, tidak mudah mengucapkan
kata-kata keramat itu, kok malah disuruh ngucapin sekali lagi? Kelly menurunkan
tangan dan terlihatlah wajahnya yang memerah. Dia melirik sebal pada Riku.
“Masa nggak dengar sih? Tadi kan aku bicaranya jelas. Kamu pura-pura nggak
dengar, ya?” semprotnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku garuk-garuk kepala. Waduh, keluar galaknya deh! “Bukan
begitu, Kel. Aku cuma mau memastikan. Habisnya, begitu ngomong, kamu langsung
tutup mulut. Kan nggak jelas banget tuh!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya udah, yang tadi kamu dengar itu benar. Jawabanmu apa?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Riku bengong. “Oh, harus
dijawab ya? Perasaan kamu tadi nggak nanya.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lh... Rikuuuu Aku serius. Kamu harus jawab, mau nggak kamu
jadi pacarku...” Kelly terdiam. Wajahnya yang sudah merah semakin membara.
Mendadak dia malu sekali. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku menghela napas panjang. Hatinya galau. Dia takut
menyakiti hati Kelly. Tapi bagaimanapun, Riku harus menjawab sekarang. Dia
tidak ingin menggantung Kelly dalam status nggak jelas. Cewek sering kebanyakan
harapan. Makanya Riku harus tegas. “Kel, maaf. Aku dan kamu lebih baik
bersahabat saja seperti sekarang. Aku rasa itu hubungan yang paling indah dan
paling tepat bagi kita,” kata Riku lembut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly terenyak. Rasa sakit menjalar di hatinya. Dia ingin
nangis, tapi gengsi dilihat Riku. Karena itu, dia hanya mengangguk lemah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Pulang yuk, Ri,” ajak Kelly sedetik kemudian, walau
sebenarnya kakinya berat untuk melangkah. Ternyata, begini rasanya ditolak
cowok. Sakit! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
*** &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly tidak langsung pulang. Dia malu pada mama dan adiknya
karena bisa dipastikan dia tidak bisa menahan tangis sesampainya di rumah. Dia
memilih ke rumah Mira dulu. Di rumah Mira sepi, jadi Kelly bisa nangis
jejeritan sesuka hati. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Di kamar Mira, Kelly
telungkup di ranjang. Wajahnya dibenamkan di bantal. Dadanya naik-turun karena
menangis sesenggukan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menepuk-nepuk punggung sahabatnya. Kelly terus saja
menangis sehingga Mira tidak tahu harus berkata apa. Segala hal yang dikatakan
Mira pada Kelly seakan tak berarti sama sekali. Namanya juga orang patah hati.
Pasti perasaan sakit hatinya lebih dominan ketimbang logika. Hingga akhimya
tubuh Kelly bergerak lebih teratur. Gadis itu berbalik, menatap Mira. Matanya
sembap dan merah. Kelly menghapus air mata. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu baik-baik saja?” tanya Mira khawatir. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly mengangguk. “Rasanya aku nggak mau lagi bertemu Riku karena
malu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Sudahlah. Kan tadi waktu kita pulang bareng, sikap Riku
biasa-biasa saja, kan? Dia tetap mengajak kita bercanda seperti biasa. Jadi,
nggak akan ada masalah. Kamu dan Riku tetap bisa berteman seperti sebelumnya.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi, aku takut Riku jijik melihat tingkahku tadi. Huhuhu...”
Kelly kembali menangis. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tingkah yang mana?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Wajah Kelly merona malu. “Tadi aku sempat ngomelin dia saat
dia pura-pura nggak dengar waktu kutembak.” Mira ingin tertawa, tapi
ditahannya. Dia tak ingin membuat sahabatnya makin malu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Oh, Riku pasti mengerti. Itu
reaksi wajar kok. Kamu harus ingat, dia sangat dewasa dan tidak berpikiran
sempit seperti kita. Kan kamu sendiri yang bilang ke aku bahwa Riku dewasa,
bijaksana, blablabla...” Mira memerot-merotkan bibir. Tapi dia menahan diri
untuk tidak terus menggoda Kelly karena Kelly kembali mew ek. “Besok kamu harus
sekolah, dan lihatlah betapa dunia masih baik-baik saja. Riku akan tetap
menunggu kita di depan pintu gerbang rumahnya, sambil tersenyum tentu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi jangan singgung-singgung masalah ini, ya?” pinta Kelly
memelas. “Aku malu. Hiks!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“He hem.” Mira mengangguk sambil tersenyum. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly tersenyum, lalu memeluk Mira erat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira lega, Kelly akhirnya bisa tersenyum kembali. Mira yakin
Kelly bakal mampu mengatasi masalah itu sendiri. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
*** &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ternyata esok harinya Kelly demam. Mungkin karena dia tidak
nafsu makan sementara tenaganya habis untuk menangis. Mira berangkat ke sekolah
sendirian. Pikirannya melayang pada Kelly. Ah, jatuh cinta ternyata tidak
selalu indah. Jatuh cinta bisa bikin demam! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Lho, sendirian? Mana Kelly?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Suara Riku menyentakkan Mira
dan lamunan. Ternyata langkahnya telah sampal di depan rumah Riku. Untunglah
ada teman jalan. Kalau tidak, Mira bisa jatuh karena berjalan sambil melamun.
“Dia demam, mungkin karena kurang istirahat dan kurang makan. Maklum, setelah
kamu tolak, dia susah tidur dan nggak mau makan.” Mira melirik Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
„Ya ampun, cinta ditolak kan bukan akhir segala“ &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya, dan dia bisa terima penolakanmu kok. Kemarin aku sudah
bicara dengannya. Tapi, Riku, kenapa sih kamu menolak Kelly? Kelly kan manis,
riang, dan menyenangkan. Dia cocok buat kamu Iho.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sesaat Riku mendesah, kemudian menoleh pada gadis di sisinya.
“Aku nggak tertarik padanya. Aku lebih tertarik pada sahabatnya.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Langkah Mira terhenti. Spontan Riku juga berhenti. Mereka
berdiri berhadapan dan bertatapan. “Maksudmu?” tanya Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hem, aku suka kamu, Mir,” ucap Riku lembut. Ekspresinya
serius. Tatapannya semakin tajam saja, seolah menagih jawaban segera dan Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Di luar dugaan Riku, Mira justru ngakak. Gadis berambut pendek
itu melanjutkan langkah panjang-panjang. Riku terheran-heran dan menyusul
pujaan hatinya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Memangnya kenapa kalau aku suka kamu? Nggak boleh?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Ya nggak boleh dong! Aku kan
sahabat Kelly. Nggak mungkin aku menyukai orang yang disukainya. Itu namanya
teman makan teman!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu benar-benar nggak tertarik padaku sama sekali, Mir?”
Riku tetap mengejar Mira dengan pertanyaan. Dia penasaran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira terdiam. Dia berhenti sejenak, kemudian menatap jalanan
yang ramai. “Itu rahasia hatiku, kamu nggak berhak tahu,” gumam Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Yang jelas dong jawabanmu,” pinta Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ah, sudahlah. Kita harus buru-buru. Hari ini aku kampanye
nih. Kamu pilih aku jadi ketua OSIS, kan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm, itu rahasia hatiku, kamu nggak berhak tahu,” balas Riku
menirukan Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira manyun, lalu berlari kecil. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
INI menyebalkan. Lagi-lagi saingan terkuat Mira di ajang
pemilihan ketua OSIS adalah Aoi. Walau termasuk anak yang kurang populer karena
tidak supel, Aoi mampu memikat teman-teman di sekolah dengan gaya pidatonya
yang karismatik. Penampilannya cool sekali. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira kebalikannya. Dia berpidato dan berdebat dengan penuh
energi. Orasinya berapi-api. Setiap Mira pidato, penonton berteriak heboh.
Terutama yang cowok-cowok. Hihi, sejak jadi kandidat ketua OSIS, Mira mendadak
jadi idola baru. Wajah dan penampilannya boleh saja pas-pasan, tapi cowok-cowok
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
menyukai cewek cerdas. Ya,
penampilan bukanlah yang utama. Yang penting apa yang ada di dalam hati dan
otak. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Pada musim kampanye ini reaksi Mira kian sengit saja bila
bertemu Aoi. Pun sebaliknya. Aoi pasti mengejek Mira saat mereka berpapasan.
Dua anak itu bagai musuh bebuyutan, tak sekali pun saling melempar senyum. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Akhirnya tiba juga saat penghitungan suara. Kali ini Mira dan
Aoi terpaksa duduk bersebelahan. Jantung Mira rasanya tak keruan, berloncatan,
dan berdetak kencang. Mira takut kalah. Menjadi wakil Aoi jelas musibah. Dia
tak akan sudi menjadi orang kedua setelah Aoi. Lagi pula, kalau dia jadi wakil
Aoi, jangan-jangan cowok itu akan semakin mempermainkannya. Pasti Aoi
nyuruh-nyuruh melulu. Huh, nggak sudi deh! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi melirik Mira. “Selamat jadi wakil ketua OSIS, Nona Jutek,”
bisik Aoi, membuat Mira terjaga dan Iamunan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Lihat saja nanti, kamu yang bakal jadi wakilku, Mister M!”
balas Mira sengit. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi hanya tersenyum simpul. “Belum pernah anak kelas 10 jadi
ketua OSIS. Anak kelas 10 selalu jadi wakil, jadi jangan terlalu pede.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Upf! Perkataan Aoi menohok tepat di ulu hati Mira. Mira
tercekat. Benarkah yang Aoi katakan? Mingkinkah dia menjadi nomor dua? Lagi?
Setelah Aoi? Argh... Mira mana mungkin menerima kenyataan itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Perhitungan suara masih berlangsung. Perolehan suara Mira dan
Aoi kejar-kejaran, sementara tiga calon lain jauh tertinggal. Sulit &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
memprediksi siapa yang bakal
bertengger paling atas. Hingga akhirnya perolehan suara Mira dan Aoi berada
persis pada angka yang sama. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Wah, tinggal satu suara yang tersisa,” kata Ferdy, si
penghitung suara sambil mengangkat satu lintingan kertas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Penonton ramai. Belum pemah ada calon yang sama kuat dalarn
kancah pemilihan ketua OSIS di sekolah mereka. Kini satu suara itu akan
menentukan nama sang ketua: Mira atau Aoi? &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira sangat tegang, berbeda dengan Aoi yang terkesan cuek.
Mira mengetuk-ngetukkan sepatu di Iantai. Berulang kali dia menelan ludah.
Sementara itu Ferdy memperlambat gerakan membuka lintingan kertas, itu pun
sambil sengaja melirik Mira dan Aoi secara bergantian. “Mmm... semakin tegang
dua kandidat kita ini,” seru Ferdy bergaya bak MC profesional. Dia berlagak mengintip
tulisan di kertas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira manyun, Aoi tersenyum basa-basi. Di barisan penonton,
Kelly komat-kamit berdoa. Sekelompok anak tak berhenti menyebut nama Aoi,
iramanya seperti yel-yel. Kubu Mira tak mau katah, mengumandangkan nama Mira
berulang-ulang dengan nada ritmis. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Baiklah, saya umumkan saja saat ini...” Ferdy menghela napas.
“Ketua OSIS terpilih adalah... AOI!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Jegerrr! Petir seolah menyambar kepala Mira. Badannya lemas
dan gemetar. Dadanya seolah meledak. Sementara itu, suara tepukan tangan dan suit-suit
membahana. Kontras dengan kondisi Mira, Aoi tersenyum lebar merayakan
kemenangan. Dia mengangkat kedua tangan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Sudah kubilang, kamu jadi
wakilku, Nona Jutek,” bisik Aoi sarnbil tertawa kecil. Mira meradang. Dia
kehilangan kendali diri. Tak dipedulikannya teman-teman yang ramai di depannya.
Mira berlari ke luar aula. Semua terperangah. Aoi tersentak. Ferdy memanggil
nama Mira menggunakan pengeras suara. Mira terus berlari sepanjang koridor
sekolah. Air matanya bercucuran deras. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mir! Mira!” Seseorang mengejar Mira sambil meneriakkan
namanya. Ternyata Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tinggalkan aku, Kel!” Mira menampik tangan Kelly ketika Kelly
hendak menenangkannya. Mira bergegas masuk ke toilet, membanting pintu, dan
mengunci dari dalarn. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menangis di toilet. Dia benar-benar kesal. Lagi-lagi dia
harus menerima kenyataan pahit. Nasib baik tak pernah berpihak padanya. Mira
malu pada diri sendini, pada Aoi, dan pada Riku. Mira malu pada teman-teman
yang selama ini mendukungnya. Juga pada seisi sekolah yang tadi tumpah ruah di
aula untuk menyaksikan perhitungan suara. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Bayangan Mama kembali datang di pikirannya. Mira takut Mama
akan marah lagi. Mira takut Mama tak lagi membanggakan dirinya di hadapan
teman-teman dan keluarga besar. Mira ingin sekali lenyap dari dunia. Sungguh,
Mira tak sanggup menerima kegagalannya kali ini. Terlebih, lagi-lagi dia
dikalahkan Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Dengan setia Kelly menunggu Mira di luar toilet. Biarlah Mira
meluapkan kekesalannya hingga puas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Akhimya Mira keluar dengan
mata merah dan sembap. Tanpa suara Kelly membimbing Mira ke wastafel dan
memutar keran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kacau benar aku saat ini,” gumam Mira saat melihat
bayangannya di cermin. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira, sudahlah... kamu tetap hebat kok. Kamu menjadi wakil
ketua OSIS, mengalahkan puluhan teman seangkatan yang juga menginginkan jabatan
itu. Kamu hebat, Mir! Tahun depan kamulah ketuanya. Pasti!” Kelly mencoba
menghibur Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku maunya tahun ini. Tapi Aoi... Cowok itu selalu mengganggu
langkahku!” teriak Mira gemas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Usia Aoi setahun lebih tua daripada kita. Wajar saja kalau
dia selangkah lebih maju...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Dia seusia kita,” potong Mira. “Itu yang membuatku semakin
kesal!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly mendesah sedih. Dia menatap sahabatnya melalui cermin di
atas wastafel. Wajah Mira tampak begitu kecewa. Matanya yang lebar dan selalu
berbinar kini kelihatan redup tak bercahaya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku mau sendinian,” desis Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly mendesah lagi. Dengan berat hati ia tinggalkan
sahabatnya itu. Mira selalu begitu, selalu ingin menyendiri bila punya masalah.
Berbeda dengan Kelly, yang selalu ingin menumpahkan isi hati lewat kata-kata,
secepatnya begitu masalah menghampirinya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku tunggu di depan pintu, ya,” kata Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira tidak menjawab. Dia
masih nanar memandang cerrnin. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sore harinya Riku dan Kelly mengunjungi Mira di rumahnya. Mira
tampak tegar dan ceria. “Wah, aku senang sekali melihat kamu sudah tersenyum
kembali, Mir,” ucap Kelly lega. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tersenyum masam. “Mama pulang. Kalau wajahku ketekuk
kayak remasan kertas, bisa-bisa aku diinterogasi. Kamu jangan cerita dulu ke
Mama tentang kekalahanku ya, Kel. Aku belum siap menerima omelan Mama.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly mengangguk. Dia iba pada sahabatnya. Mama Mira memang
sangat berbeda dengan mama Kelly. Mama Kelly tak pernah menuntut apa pun dan
Kelly. Apa adanya Kelly sudah membuat mamanya bangga dan bahagia. Yang penting
putrinya menjadi anak baik, begitu selalu mamanya berpesan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Bagaimana kalau kita jalan-jalan, Mir?” ajak Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nggak ah! Paling nanti ada Aoi lagi. Sori ya, aku nggak mau
merayakan kemenangan dia!” Mira merengut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya ampun, Mir!” seru Kelly gemas. “Terima kekalahan dong!
Contoh nih, aku yang bisa berteman lagi dengan Riku. Aku menerima kenyataan dia
memang nggak menyukaiku. Ayolah, Mir!” bujuk Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku kesal. Kenapa harus Aoi lagi? Mungkin kalau ketuanya
Riku, aku nggak akan merasa sesakit ini. Aoi gitu Iho! Tampangnya saja
menyebalkan kayak gitu. Bagaimana mungkin aku bisa kerja sama dengan dia?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Mir, jangan salah sangka.
Aoi baik banget Iho. Dia bisa bekerja sama dengan siapa pun, termasuk kamu,”
jelas Riku sabar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mendesah. Hatinya masih kesal. Tapi dia mau juga
jalan-jalan ke taman kota bersama Riku dan Kelly. Tentu saja setelah Riku
meyakinkan Mira bahwa Aoi nggak akan ada di sana. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Gimana, udaranya segar, kan? Jadi pikiranmu ikut segar dan
hatimu terbawa nyaman,” kata Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mereka duduk di tepi danau kecil di tengah taman. Untuk sesaat
mereka hanya diam dan menikmati pemandangan asri. Air danau beriak lembut,
angin berembus sepoi-sepoi. Benar kata Riku, pikiran Mira menjadi lebih tenang,
hatinya pun berangsur senang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku punya cerita,” Riku membuka suara. “Dulu waktu kelas 10,
aku kalah telak saat adu gol dengan anak kelas 11. Anak itu berhasil mencetak
lima gol, sedangkan aku hanya mampu satu. Kemudian selama di kelas 10 aku
menjadi pesuruhnya. Sakit banget rasanya. Tapi aku tetap menjalaninya. Hanya
saja aku bersumpah, aku akan menjadi pemain terbaik di kelas 11. Rasa sakit itu
menyemangatiku untuk berjuang dan berlatih lebih keras. Lihatlah, sekarang aku
berhasil. Aku menjadi bintang lapangan hijau. Tiap bertanding selalu ada
gol-gol indah dan kakiku.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Idiih, kenapa kamu mau menjadi pesuruhnya?” tanya Kelly
heran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Waktu itu kami taruhan. Yang kalah jadi pesuruh yang menang.
Bagaimanapun aku harus konsisten dengan perkataanku sendiri. Permainan bola
butuh sportivitas tinggi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Kalah ya kalah saja. Harus
ditenima dengan lapang dada. Akan ada saat bagi kemenangan. Maka, aku jalani
hukuman kekalahanku itu. Ada hikmah yang bisa dipetik kok.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Memangnya kamu disuruh ngapain aja?” tanya Mira penasaran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Apa pun yang dia inginkan. Membawakan pakaian bolanya,
membelikan minuman, rnengambilkan handuk, sampai disuruh mengerjakan PR. Tapi
tiap dia berlatih, aku selalu mengamati teknik bermainnya. Kuamati dengan
saksama. Aku rnempelajari cara membawa bola dan menendang, posisi kaki, dan
gerakan badan.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hebat sekali, Riku! Kamu berhasil mengubah masa hukumanmu
menjadi ajang belajar, yang membawamu menjadi pemain terbaik di sekolah!” Kelly
menatap Riku kagum. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya. Sekarang dia sudah di kelas 12. Dia menjadi sahabat dan
teman bermain bola yang luar biasa untukku.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kini kalian bersahabat?” tanya Mira tak percaya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya. Kalian kenal Ruto, kan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya ampun!” pekik Kelly. “Jadi Ruto, pemain top yang dulu
menghukummu? ldih, aku mau dong kenalan sama Ruto! lya, aku sering banget lihat
kamu dan Ruto berlatih bersama!” Mendadak Kelly kumat gaya lebaynya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Huh, dasar kamu tergila-gila pemain bola melulu!” canda Riku.
Tawanya berderai, membuat wajah Kelly bersemu merah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Maksudmu... aku juga harus
belajar dan Aoi, gitu?” tanya Mira dengan nada datar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Yap! Kalau kamu mau belajar darinya, tahun depan aku yakin
kamulah yang jadi ketua OSIS. Aoi pasti mengajarimu banyak hal. Tentu saja
kalau kamu mau bersikap rendah hati sedikit,” imbuh Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangguk-angguk. Kata-kata Riku benar-benar tepat
mengenai sasaran. Mira semakin mengagumi Riku. Benar kata Kelly, Riku sangat
bijaksana dan dewasa. Mira bertekad menjadi pribadi yang lebih baik lagi. Tapi
benarkah Aoi sebaik yang dikatakan Riku? Maukah Aoi bekerja sama dengan Mira
yang sejak awal tidak menyukainya? Mira menelan ludah. Dia takut dirinya bakal
menjadi bulan-bulanan Aoi seperti yang dilakukan Ruto pada Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira takut Aoi mengejek dan menyuruhnya ini-itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Dirinya bakalan tampak seperti pelayan, bukan wakil OSIS. Mira
dan Aoi telanjur saling benci. Mungkinkah Aoi bisa menerima Mira? &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ah, Mira sungguh tak bisa menebak. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
PELANTIKAN pengurus OSIS berjalan lancar, walau ketua dan
wakilnya tak bertegur sapa sama sekali. Sebetulnya sudah banyak yang curiga
pada ketidakharmonisan Aoi dan Mira. Tapi gosip belum berkembang. Belum ada
yang menanyakan hal tersebut langsung kepada Mira. Seusai pelantikan, Mira
buru-buru kembali ke kelasnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Beberapa hari setelah
pelantikan, suatu sore tiba-tiba Aoi muncul di ambang pintu rumah Mira. Sudah
pasti Mira kaget bukan main. Tapi tampang Aoi tetap sedingin es. Ditambah
dengan kacamata kotak yang bertengger kaku di hidung, wajah Aoi terlihat seram
di mata Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ngapain kamu ke sini?” tanya Mira tak ramah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tidak langsung menjawab. Dia melenggang ke bangku teras
dan mendudukinya. “Ini kerjaan buat kamu, wakil ketua OSIS,” kata Aoi sambil
meletakkan setumpuk kertas di meja. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kerjaan apa?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Baca aja sendiri. Tapi, tolong kamu jangan pelit. Minta minum
dong. Aku haus banget nih!” Mira bengong sesaat, lalu tertawa dalam hati. Tapi
diambilkannya juga minuman dingin untuk Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Terima kasih,” kata Aoi sambil tersenyum. Setelah menerima
segelas air dingin dari tangan Mira, Aoi meneguknya hingga tandas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Tumben senyum, batin Mira. Tapi Mira tak membahas. Dia sedang
malas bertengkar. Tangannya meraih kertas-kertas yang dibawa Aoi dan membacanya
sekilas. “Oh, ini kerjaan OSIS juga?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya iyalah! Emang kamu kira kerjaan wakil hanya ngeceng di
mal?” Aoi kembali ketus. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mendelik kesal. “Ngeceng di mal tapi bareng ketua OSIS
sambil ngerjain tugas sih boleh juga.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Aoi menatap Mira. Yang
ditatap pura-pura sibuk membaca. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh... jadi kamu sebenarnya kepingin jalan-jalan sama aku?
Naksir aku, ya? Kok nggak bilang dan dulu-dulu sih, Non?” Aoi menggoda Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Naksir otakmu doang. Nggak naksir tampangmu yang menyebalkan
itu. Boro-boro!” balas Mira tanpa menatap Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi mendengus kesal. Kemudian dia menjelaskan tugas-tugas Mira
di OSIS sebagai wakil ketua. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Duh, sibuk juga ya, jadi wakil,” keluh Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Emang!” sambar Aoi. “Kamu baru jadi wakil aja sudah mengeluh,
apalagi kalau jadi ketua. Bisa mati berdiri!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya... iya. Galak amat sih?” Mira mendelik kesal. “Trus,
bagaimana cara mengoordmnir teman-teman ini?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi menepuk dahi. “Ya ampuuun! Nggak nyangka, ternyata kamu
lemot. Masa kayak gitu aja nggak tahu caranya? Lalu, kemarin ngotot mau jadi
ketua, memang pikirmu kerja ketua OSIS seperti apa?” Aoi geleng-geleng. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira cemberut. “Ya sudah kalau nggak mau ngajarin. Aku bisa
belajar sendiri kok!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sekali lagi Aoi geleng-geleng. Akhirnya dia mau juga
menjelaskan kepada Mira mengenai cara kerja, berbicara efektif, mengevaluasi,
serta banyak hal lain yang menyangkut tugas-tugas Mira di OSIS. Aoi
menjelaskannya dengan sabar dan telaten. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangguk-angguk. Kalau
masih kurang jelas, Aoi menjelaskan lagi secara lebih rinci sampai Mira
benar-benar mengerti. Benar kata Riku, sebenarnya Aoi sangat balk. Mira jadi merasa
bersalah karena selama ini galak pada Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kerja pertama kita mulai besok, dan itu nggak ada dalam
catatan kita tadi. Kita mengumpulkan dana buat korban Merapi. Kita akan
keliling bersama seksi dana pada jam istirahat pertama di sekolah,” kata Aoi sambil
menatap lekat Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Lalu kita ke Yogyakarta menyerahkan bantuan, gitu?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya nggak lah! Kita kan bisa transfer ke salah satu stasiun
televisi. Bisa juga lewat PMI, atau lewat lembaga nonprofit. Banyak cara, Non!
Nggak perlu ke Yogya. Ketimbang ngeluarin uang transpor dan akomodasi di Yogya,
mending uangnya disumbangin aja buat para korban.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hehe, kok aku jadi o&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;ms mincho&amp;quot;; mso-ascii-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;‟&lt;/span&gt;on gini ya?” Mira garuk-garuk
kepala. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kalau pintar, kamu udah jadi ketua OSIS.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tert awa. “lya... iya!” Mira cemberut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Besok, berapa pun hasilnya, kita umumkan pada teman-teman dan
guru. Oh iya, khusus untuk anak orang kaya kayak kamu, minimal nyumbang lima
ratus ribu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Apa?! Senus nih?” Mira membelalak. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nggak usah melotot! Lagian kamu kan wakil ketua OSIS. Kasih
contoh dong ke teman-teman bahwa kamu dermawan.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Heh! Ini bukan rnelotot.
Emang dari sononya mataku besar, tahu!” Mira sewot. “Yang punya uang kan
ortuku. Uang sakuku tetap aja standar, nggak jauh beda sama remaja kebanyakan.
Lagian, amal kok dipaksa. Suka-suka aku dong, mau nyumbang berapa!” cerocos
Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya... iya, aku cuma bercanda. Gimana soal sumbangan tadi?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Boleh deh. Besok aku nyumbang lima babi!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi membelalak. Lucu sekali tampangnya, sampai-sampai Mira
tertawa geli. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku punya beberapa celengen bentuk babi. Gemuk-gemuk gitu,
dan semua penuh karena nggak pernah kubuka. Nah, besok kita bisa hitung
sama-sama isinya. Siapa tahu jumlahnya lumayan.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Sip! Tapi isinya bukan koin seratusan, kan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lh, menghina amat sih! lsinya lebih dan satu juta tiap
celengen, tau! Itu celengan gede banget, dan isinya koin seribuan semua!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Serius?” Aoi tampak tak percaya. “Lima celengan belum dipecah
sama sekali?” Aoi terheran-heran. Dia tidak pernah membiarkan celengannya penuh
dan hanya menjadi pajangan. Aoi selalu memecah celengannya, bahkan sebelum
sempat penuh. Selalu ada kebutuhan mendesak yang membuatnya harus memakai uang
celengan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangguk sekilas. Dia enggan membahas isi celengannya
lagi. “Oh ya, rumahmu di mana?” tanya Mira mengalihkan topik. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Jauh banget dan sini. Aku
tadi naik bus sampal dekat rumah Riku, kemudian jalan ke sini.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Lho, kok Riku nggak ikut sekalian ke sini?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Riku mau nganterin mamanya belanja,” balas Aoi. “Oh, begitu.
Pulangnya bagaimana dong? Kalau balik dulu ke rumah Riku, dia kan nggak ada?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tersenyum. “Kan aku bisa naik bus dan sini. Tadi aku
mampir di rumah Riku karena aku nggak tahu rumahnu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hehe, iya ya. Duh, aku kok mendadak jadi bego begini sih!”
Mira garuk-garuk kepala. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Karena berhadapan denganku?” Aoi menjulurkan lidah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“ldih! Pede banget sih kamu!” pekik Mira sebal. “Karena otakmu
dipenuhi ambisi, Non. Makanya jadi orang jangan terlalu jutek. Nanti cepat
tua!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira merengut lagi. Aoi memang pintar dan sabar kalau sedang
menjelaskan sesuatu. Tapi kalau sudah menyangkut diriinya sendiri dan Mira,
cowok itu lagi-lagi bersikap judes. Menyebalkan! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Eh, minta minum lagi dong,” pinta Aoi. “Mulutku sampai kering
nih, gara-gara harus menjelaskan panjang lebar tugas-tugasmu tadi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira baru akan mengambilkan minuman ketika terdengar suara
jeritan dan arah dapur. Mira dan Aoi segera berlari ke dapur. Mbak Nunuk,
pembantu rumah tangga Mira, tengah duduk di &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
lantai. Tangannya memegang
telapak kaki kanannya. Wajahnya terlihat kesakitan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kenapa, Mbak?” tanya Mira panik. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tersiram air panas, Non.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aduh, gimana ini?” Mira bingung. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Panggil sopirmu. Kita ke rumah sakit sekarang!” kata Aoi
tenang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Sopirku lagi cuti. Bagaimana ini?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oke. Tapi mobilmu tidak dibawa sopirmu, kan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira segera mengambil kunci mobil dan menyerahkannya pada Aoi.
Kemudian keduanya memapah Mbak Nunuk berjalan ke mobil. Mbak Nunuk meningis
kesakitan. Mira kian panik. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ayo, cepet, Aoi!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Sabar. Kalau terburu-buru malah kacau semua. Tenangkan
pikiranmu. Kaki tersiram air panas nggak bakalan menewaskan Mbak Nunuk!” balas
Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mobil meluncur ke luar rumah. Sepanjang perjalanan Mira
berusaha menenangkan Mbak Nunuk. Tapi dia sendiri justru berurai air mata. Dia
tak tega melihat penderitaan Mbak Nunuk yang sudah dianggap sebagai keluarganya
sendiri. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tersenyum melihat Mira yang menangis tapi mulutnya tak
henti menghibur Mbak Nunuk. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Heh! Mira cengeng! Kamu
sendiri nangis gitu kok menghibur orang lain!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Makanya buruan dong!” balas Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tertawa. Lewat kaca spion, ia melihat wajah Mira yang
jelek karena menangis. “lh, kamu jelek banget kalau menangis! Nyesel banget aku
punya wakil cengeng dan jelek kayak gitu!” ledek Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mau nggak mau Mira menghapus air matanya. Ia merasa malu
karena ketahuan lemah dan cengeng. Aoi benar-benar tenang menghadapi kejadian
itu. Cowok itu bahkan masih bisa bercanda dan menggoda Mira agar tidak terlalu
tegang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Begitu sampai di rumah sakit, Mbak Nunuk Iangsung masuk dan
diperiksa di UGD. Mira duduk menunggu dengan gelisah. Aoi datang membawakan air
mineral untuknya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Maaf banget ya. Aku merepotkanmu,” kata Mira tulus. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Daripada bilang maaf, lebih baik bilang terima kasih.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“E-hem, terima kasih, Aoi. Kamu telah membantuku. Aku nggak
tahu apa jadinya andai tadi nggak ada kamu.” “Aku tahu apa jadinya...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menoleh. Aoi tertawa ringan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu pasti akan lari ke jalan dan berteriak-teriak minta
tolong.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tersenyum kecut. “Hehe, mungkin. ltu yang paling mudah
kulakukan.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Aoi menatap Mira serius.
“Orangtuamu selalu pergi tiap hari?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Iya. Mereka sangat sibuk. Kadang berhari-hari mereka nggak
pulang karena ke luar kota. Sekalinya pulang, sehari doang. Itu pun dihabiskan
untuk istirahat. Aku sudah biasa menjalaninya sejak kecil. Makanya aku dekat
sekali sama Mbak Nunuk.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu bahagia?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menatap Aoi. “Bahagia yang seperti apa maksudmu?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Yah, apakah kamu senang menjalani hidupmu?” Pandangan Aoi
menusuk mata Mira, seolah ingin menyelidik lebih jauh. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm... bagaimana ya?” Mira bingung sendiri. “Senang nggak
senang, mereka bekerja demi aku juga, kan? Selebihnya sih memang untuk
kebanggaan dan kepuasan hidup mereka sendiri. Aku paham, suatu saat mungkin aku
juga seperti mereka. Lagi pula aku sudah terbiasa. Jadi nggak masalah.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tersenyum. “Hmm... ternyata kamu cukup dewasa ya? Kupikir
selama ini kamu kolokan, doyannya ngambek dan jutek ke orang.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tertawa kecil. Aneh. Tiba-tiba saja seluruh tumpukan
kekesalan Mira pada Aoi musnah seketika. Apakah karena Aoi telah menolongnya?
Entahlah. Mira merasa lebih baik berdamai dengan sang ketua OSIS itu daripada
terus-menerus menganggapnya musuh. Ya, mereka kan harus bekerja sama mernajukan
OSIS. Kalau ketua dan wakilnya saja musuhan, bagaimana program OSIS bisa
berjalan dengan baik? &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Setelah diobati, Mbak Nunuk
diperbolehkan pulang. Jalanan macet parah. Mobil Mira maju sedikit demi
sedikit, sementara hari mulal gelap. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Orangtuamu nggak nyariin kamu, Aoi? Biar aku telepon
orangtuamu ya, supaya mereka nggak khawatir?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nggak usah. Nggak apa-apa kok. Ayah ngasih kepercayaan penuh
ke aku. Jadi nggak apa-apa,” kata Aoi sambil terus konsentrasi mengemudi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ibu kamu? Ibu-ibu biasanya panik kalau anaknya nggak
pulang-pulang.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku nggak punya ibu. Jadi jangan khawatir,” balas Aoi. Air
muka Aoi berubah kaku sehingga Mira tak berani bertanya lagi tentang keluarga
Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Hening. Masing-masing sibuk dengan pikirannya sendiri. Tak ada
yang membuka mulut hingga mereka sampai di rurnah Mira. Hari telah gelap ketika
Mira melepas kepergian Aoi. Mereka saling melempar senyum sebelum Aoi masuk ke
taksi. Ah, telah terjadi gencatan senjata rupanya! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
SEMINGGU telah berlalu. Siang itu Mira duduk dengan tegang di
sofa cokelat yang terasa dingin. Jantungnya jumpalitan saking takutnya.
Sementara itu di dekat jendela Aoi menelepon seseorang. Seorang polisi berkumis
tebal mengamati mereka dari meja kerjanya. Ya, kini mereka berada di kantor
polisi. Rupanya Aoi menyetir sambil melamun sehingga salah jalur. Mereka
ditilang. Celakanya, ternyata Aoi tidak mempunyai SIM. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Sejam lalu mereka baru saja
pulang dan rumah Mei. Cewek cantik itu didaulat menjadi ketua panitia pentas
seni sekolah yang akan dilaksanakan beberapa bulan lagi. Berhubung hujan, Mira
berinisiatif membawa mobil untuk menjemput Aoi yang sedang berada di rumah
Riku. Dan situ keduanya menuju rumah Mei. Eh, pulang dan rumah Mei, mereka
malah kena tilang. Kalau mamanya tahu, Mira pasti disemprot habis-habisan. Itu
yang membuat Mira gemetar. Dibandingkan pada pak polisi, Mira lebih takut pada
mamanya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi mengempaskan tubuh di sisi Mira. Dia mendesah panjang,
lalu menatap Mira penuh belas kasihan. “Maaf ya, Mir. Masalahnya malah jadi
runyam begini.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ini salahku kok.” Mira berbesar hati mengakui kesalahan.
“Tapi... siapa yang akan mengeluarkan kita dari sini? Orangtuaku lagi di luar
kota. Kalaupun orangtuaku ada di sini, aku takut dirnarahi Mama.” Mira kian
sedih. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ayahku sedang dalam perjalanan kemari. Tenanglah.” Aoi
mencoba tersenyum. Dia merangkul bahu Mira dan menepuk-nepuk lengan Mira supaya
gadis itu merasa tenang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira memang merasa lebih tenang. Perhatian Aoi menghangatkan
hatinya. Mira tidak menyangka Aoi begitu tegar dan mandiri. Tak tampak sedikit
pun ketakutan di wajah Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu nggak takut, Aoi?” tanya Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku nggak takut apa pun, Mira,” desis Aoi. “Hidupku nggak
semulus hidupmu. Aku terbiasa dengan situasi yang nggak nyaman. Hal seperti ini
akan segera berlalu. Jadi, kenapa harus takut?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira tersenyum. “Memangnya
ayahmu nggak marah?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tadi juga sudah marah-marah sewaktu aku menelepon. Tapi dia
tetap ayahku, kan? Jadi tentu saja ayahku akan datang menjemput kita. Lagi
pula, aku akan mengganti semua uang yang Ayah keluarkan untuk menebus kita
nanti.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi, bagaimana caranya? Berapa lama kamu harus menabung uang
sakumu sampai bisa membayar uang yang telah dikeluarkan ayahmu?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh, kamu belum tahu ya?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menggeleng. “Tahu apa, maksudmu?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku mendesain kaus. Pelanggan tetapnya tim sepak bola dan tim
basket sekolah kita. Kaus olahraga tahun lalu juga karyaku.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh ya? Wah... hebat banget! Sungguh, aku sama sekali nggak
tahu kamu berbakat seni.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku juga menjual kaus pada teman-teman sekolah lain, para
tetangga, dan kenalan-kenalanku. Semua desainku sendiri,” lanjut Aoi bangga. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Wow! Kamu juga berbakat dagang, ya? Hebat deh, Aoi. Jarang
ada anak seumuran kita yang sudah pintar cari uang,” puji Mira tulus. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Temyata selama ini Mira benar-benar salah menilai Aoi. Mira
jadi menyesal telah memusuhi Aoi. Cowok itu ternyata kreatif dan gigih. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Makanya kamu harus bersyukur
punya orangtua lengkap dan memberimu semua fasilitas, sehingga nggak susah
payah mencari uang saku sendiri seperti aku.” Aoi menatap Mira dengan pancaran
mata bersungguh-sungguh. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tak berani menatap mata Aoi. Ia hanya menunduk sambil
berkata, “lya, aku patut bersyukur. Meski mereka jarang sekali berada di rumah,
mereka tetap saja milikku yang sangat berharga.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh, iya. Babi-babimu temyata benar-benar gemuk. Kurasa
kamulah penyumbang terbanyak. Kamu benar-benar tidak sayang menyerahkan semua
tabunganmu?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ah, sudahlah. Aku nggak pernah memecahkan celengan karena
malas menghitung koinnya, itu saja. Kemarin aku jadi punya kesempatan
mengetahul isi babi-babi itu.” Mira tertawa kecil. “Aku ikhlas kok menyerahkan
semua tabunganku. Saudara-saudara kita yang menjadi korban letusan Merapi Iebih
membutuhkannya ketimbang aku.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tersenyum lebar pada Mira, membuat Mira jadi salah
tingkah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Menjelang sore, seorang lelaki berambut gondrong dan beruban
memasuki ruangan. Topi kulit bertengger di kepalanya, sementara tubuhnya
terbungkus jaket kulit. Dia menyandang sebuah tas besar hitam. Dilihat dan
tulisan yang tertera di tas tersebut, sepertinya berisi kamera. Dia ayah Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sejenak ayah Aoi menatap Mira dengan pandangan menakutkan.
Mata itu agak merah. Bibir kakunya yang tanpa senyum seakan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
melengkapi penampilannya yang
tidak bersahabat. Bahkan terkesan galak. Mira gentar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Setelah berbicara dengan petugas polisi dan menandatangani
beberapa surat, ayah Aoi menghampiri Mira dan Aoi yang duduk menunggu di sofa. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kalian bebas,” kata ayah Aoi. Sikap tubuhnya tetap kaku. Dia
berdiri tegak dan tak terllhat tanda-tanda hendak menyapa Mira dengan lebih
ramah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Terima kasih, Oom.” Mira berdiri dan memberanikan diri
mengulurkan tangan, mengajak bersalaman. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ayah Aoi tak menggubris Mira. Beliau justru memalingkan wajah,
menatap anaknya yang masih duduk di sofa. “Aoi, cukup sekali kamu melakukan
kesalahan seperti ini. Kalau sampai terulang, tanggunglah sendiri. Ayah tidak
mau bantu lagi. Kamu sudah besar. Ingat yang selalu Ayah ajarkan: jangan
bergantung pada orang lain, kamu harus mandiri, apalagi untuk kesalahan yang
kamu lakukan sendiri!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Terima kasih, Yah.” Aoi berdiri lalu mengangguk patuh. “Aoi
janji, ini yang pertama dan terakhir.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kini Ayah Aoi menatap Mira. Pandangannya tajam menusuk.
“Jangan ajak anak saya mengikuti gaya hidupmu! Dia biasa hidup sederhana,”
desisnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tersentak. Walau pelan, ucapan ayah Aoi menohok hatmnya.
Tiba-tiba Mira menjadi gentar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Yah...” Aoi terperangah. Dia
mencoba menghentikan omongan ayahnya, tapi mulut lelaki beruban itu tak dapat
ditahan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Jangan jatuh karena perempuan!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira pucat pasi. Ia tidak mengerti alasan ayah Aoi
memusuhinya, bahkan pada saat pertama pertemuan mereka. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&lt;i&gt;“Please &lt;/i&gt;deh, Yah... .“ &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Sudahlah, ayo kita pulang setelah mengantar Nona Kaya ini,”
kata ayah Aoi sambil berlalu. Nada bicaranya sangat sinis ketika menyebut kata
“Nona Kaya”. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi menarik tangan Mira. Mereka mengikuti langkah cepat ayah
Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Setelah meminta izin pada Mira untuk mengambil alih kemudi,
ayah Aoi menyetir mobil Mira. Aoi menemani ayahnya di depan, sementara Mira
duduk sendirian di belakang. Mira tak berani berbicara sedikit pun. Dia
membeku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kalian masih SMA, seharusnya berempati pada jutaan orang
miskin di negeri kita, bukan gaya-gayaan memakai mobil pemberian orangtua.
Kalian bisa memakai angkutan umum atau naik sepeda. Itu lebih membumi. Apa
kalian juga nyaman terjebak macet di jalanan seperti ini? Ada cara yang
sederhana kok malah cari kerepotan!” omel ayah Aoi sambil sesekali melirik Mira
dan spion. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aoi minta maaf, Yah. Tadi hujan, dan sudah telanjur janji
dengan Mei. Jadi Mira berinisiatif membawa mobil.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Mei lagi... Mei lagi! Mei
yang mirip cemara angin yang habis terbakar itu, kan? Kurus kering, tinggi,
sampai ngomong saja nggak becus karena kehabisan energi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sebenarnya Mira ingin tertawa mendengar komentar ayah Aoi
tentang Mel, si foto model itu, tapi ditahannya sekuat tenaga. Mira jadi tahu
ayah Aoi tidak menyukai Mei dan mungkmn gadis lain yang seperti Mei. Entahlah,
mungkin ayah Aoi tidak menyukai gadis macam apa pun. Buktinya, kepada Mira yang
sangat berbeda tipe dengan Mei, ayah Aoi pun bersikap antipati. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Yah, Mei kan teman Aoi. Biarpun seperti itu, Mei baik kok!”
Aoi membela Mei. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Cari teman yang sepadan. Jangan cari teman kaya. Bisa hancur
kamu nanti. Orang kaya hidupnya di awing-awang, tidak seperti kita,” cetus ayah
Aoi. Tegas dan dingin. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Deg! Mira makin mengerut di tempat. Seolah tubuhnya mengecil
begitu saja hingga tak kelihatan. Sepertin ya ayah Aoi tidak menyukai orang
kaya, padahal tak semua orang kaya seperti yang ada dalam pikirannya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mobil berhenti di &lt;i&gt;carport &lt;/i&gt;rumah Mira yang megah. Aoi
dan ayahnya segera turun, lalu menyerahkan kunci mobil pada Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Saya sudah mengantarmu pulang dengan selamat. Sekarang kami
pulang. Tenma kasih. Salam untuk orangtuamu,” kata ayah Aoi, tetap tanpa
senyum. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Saya mohon mampirlah dulu, Oom. Minum teh hangat dulu dan
makan malam. Mbak Nunuk bisa menyiapkannya untuk &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Oom dan Aoi. Orangtua saya
sedang di luar kota,” balas Mira takut-takut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Terima kasih. Tapi maaf, kami harus segera pulang. Selamat
malam,” kata ayah Aoi, kemudian berlalu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tak sempat berkata apa-apa pada Mira, dia langsung
mengejar ayahnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira masih termangu di sisi mobil, menatap dua punggung yang
kini tak tampak lagi. Mira mendesah sedih, kemudian berbalik, lalu duduk di
teras. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kenapa ayah Aoi seperti itu? tanya Mira pada dirinya sendiri.
Mira menggeleng-geleng bingung. Sedih juga ada orang yang sebegitu bencinya
pada orang kaya tanpa sebab. Menurut Mira, ayah Aoi picik sekali karena
menyamaratakan semua orang kaya sebagai orang yang nggak baik. Mira tak
mengerti apa yang dimaksud ayah Aoi, tapi sungguh, dia gelisah setelah bertemu
ayah Aoi yang kaku dan menyeramkan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
*** &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aoi!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira berlari kecil menghampiri Aoi yang sedang duduk sendirian
di pinggir lapangan sepak bola. Aoi sedang membuka bekal dan bersiap makan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Oh... hal, Mira.” Aoi
menengadah sambil tersenyum. Dia urung menyuapkan nasi ke dalam mulut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tersenyum hangat. Entah mengapa, hatinya tenang melihat
Aoi tersenyum. Segera gadis tombol itu menjejeri Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kok nggak bawa bekal?” tanya Aoi melihat Mira tak membawa apa
pun di tangannya. “Aku masih kenyang. Tadi waktu jemput Kelly, aku ikut sarapan
nasi goreng.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Wah, enak ya. Besok ikutan dong!” seloroh Aoi. “Hehe,
boleeeh. Ibu Kelly pasti senang kalau banyak yang memuji masakannya. Emang enak
banget lho masakan ibu Kelly,” Mira berpromosi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Baiklah, sekali-sekali aku jemput kamu, trus kita
bareng-bareng jemput Kelly,” kata Aoi sambil tertawa. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tersenyum lebar. Temyata, kalau sudah kenal dekat, Aoi
menyenangkan, tidak seperti waktu pertama kali bertemu. Kebetulan, ada yang
ingin Mira tanyakan pada Aoi: tentang insiden semalam. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aoi, aku minta maaf tentang kejadian kemarin. Gara-gara pakai
mobilku, kamu dimarahi ayahmu. Dan... ng... ayahmu sepertinya marah sama aku.”
Mira meringis. Wajahnya memelas sekali ketika menatap Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ah, itu kesalahanku. Nggak ada hubungannya sama kamu atau
mobilmu. Jadi jangan merasa bersalah begitu. Justru aku yang harus minta maaf
karena kata-kata ayahku semalam.” Aoi menenangkan Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangguk. Tiba-tiba
dia ingin sekali ke rumah Aoi. “Aoi, boleh nggak sepulang sekolah nanti aku
main ke rumahmu?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi berhenti mengunyah. Dahinya mengernyit memandang Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menelan ludah dan buru-buru meralat, “Eh, nggak. Aku cuma
bercanda. Kalo kamu keberatan, nggak apa-apa kok.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu yakin?” potong Aoi. “Rumahku di gang kecil perumahan
padat. Di sana panas sekali. Kamu nggak akan betah di rumahku,” balas Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tersenyum. “Nggak apa-apa. Lagi pula ada tugas OSIS yang
harus kita kerjakan bersama, kan? Kita kerjakan di rumahmu aja, ya?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi mengangguk, meski ragu. Dia memandang mata Mira yang
berbinar senang. Ah, bagaimana pendapat Mira nanti? Rumahnya dan rumah Mira
sangat jauh berbeda. Rumah Aoi mungkin hanya seluas kamar tidur Mira. Itu pun
kamar Mira sudah pasti lebih bagus. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Setelah makan siang dan istirahat sebentar di rumah, Mira
mengajak Kelly ke rumah Aoi naik angkutan umum. Sepanjang jalan Kelly
terus-terusan mengomel. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lih... gerah banget sih?” bisik Kelly di dalam angkot.
“Keringatan nih, kalau desak-desakan kayak gini. Lagi pula,” Kelly mendekatkan
mulut ke telinga Mira, “bapak di sebelahku bau keringat. Hii...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira tertawa kecil. “Itu
rezekimu, haha.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly cemberut. “lh! Kapok deh naik angkot kayak gini. Kamu
sih aneh banget, Mir. Untuk apa di garasimu ada mobil? Untuk apa punya sopir?
Untuk apa kalau nggak kamu gunakan? Huhuhu...” Kelly mulai lebay. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ssst... diam ah! Nggak enak sama penumpang lain. Kesannya
sombong amat,” bisik Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ah, biarin!” Kelly masih merajuk. “Kepalaku pusing, tau!
Angkotnya ngerem-ngerem mulu.” Mira pura-pura nggak peduli. Dia sibuk melihat
jalanan dari jendela angkot. Dicocokkannya jalanan dengan denah rumah yang tadi
diberi Aoi. “Stop!” pekik Mira tiba-tiba. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Ciiittt! &lt;/i&gt;Angkot mengerem mendadak, membuat penumpangnya
terguncang. Seisi angkot langsung menatap sebal pada Mira. Kelly apalagi, dia
langsung menyenggol lengan Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Memang rumahnya di sini?” tanya Kelly jengkel. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kayaknya sih,” balas Mira sambil buru-buru turun. Kelly
mengikuti di belakang sambil mengomel. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Setelah membayar ongkos angkot, Mira melihat kernbali denah
yang dibuat Aoi untuknya. Aoi yakin Mira tidak akan bisa menemukan rumahnya,
meski denahnya sangat jelas. Tapi Mira yakin bisa menemukan rumah Aoi tanpa
hams menelepon cowok itu terlebih dahulu. Bagi Mira, anggap saja ini permainan
mencari jejak seperti dalam eskul pramuka. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“lya, aku bingung melihat
denah ini. Rumit. Banyak sekali petunjuk gang di sini. Tapi kayaknya kita masuk
gang yang itu aja deh” Mira menunjuk salah satu gang di samping pos ronda. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya udah. Kalau kamu yakin, kita cepetan ke sana. Panas sekali
di sini nih, Mir. Kulitku bisa gosong!” rengek Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mereka memasuki gang kecil itu sambil mencari-cari penjual
bensin eceran. Kata Aoi, rumahnya hanya selisih beberapa rumah saja dari kios
bensin eceran itu. Tapi Mira tidak menemukannya. Ia kebingungan. Berulang kali
ia melihat denah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aduh, Mir. Panas. Pusing. Haus. Lengket. Pulang saja yuk!”
keluh Kelly sambil mengipasi wajah menggunakan buku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku sudah janji mau ke rumah Aoi kan, Kel!” jawab Mira sambil
mendelik sebal. Dia sengaja minta Kelly menemaninya supaya bisa bekerja sama
menemukan rumah Aoi, temyata keberadaan Kelly justru membuatnya repot. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Yang janji kan kamu, bukan aku!” tukas Kelly. “Kalau kita
muter-muter terus kayak gini, pasti ada orang yang memperhatikan. Kalau kita
diincar orang jahat lalu diculik, bagaimana? Aduh... ini kan daerah yang nggak
aman, Mir. Banyak orang jahat!” Kelly mulal panik. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira semakin kesal. “Kamu nakut-nakutin aja sih? Ah, biarin!
Aku nggak mau menyerah. Kita pasti menemukan rumah Aoi!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kita? Huh, aku mau pulang! Aku nggak tahan dengan panasnya!”
kata Kelly, kemudian berbalik dan berjalan tergesa. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Kok kamu gitu sih, Kel?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku mau pulang naik taksi. Kalau kamu mau ikut pulang ya ayo.
Tapi kalau masih mau terus mencari rumah Aoi, aku menyerah!” teriak Kelly tanpa
menoleh ke belakang. Ia terus saja berjalan menuju jalan besar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mendesah sedih sambil memandangi denah. “Kelly... kok
nggak setia sih... ,“ gumamnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sudah telanjur pergi jauh, Mira memutuskan akan terus mencari
rumah Aoi. Lingkungan itu asing sekali. Seumur-umur dia belum pernah berada di
gang Sesempit ini, dengan rumah-rumah kecil yang berdempetan rapat. Sesekali
Mira bertanya pada beberapa orang yang lewat atau berada di depan rumah, tapi
tak ada satu pun yang mengenal Aoi. Mira putus asa. Kulitnya mulal berkilat
banjir keringat. Tiba-tiba sebuah motor berhenti di dekat Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sontak Mira menoleh dan seketika memucat. Pengendara motor
adalah ayah Aoi! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tersesat di hutan rimba?” sapa ayah Aoi sinis. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Cleguk... Mira menelan ludah. “lya, Oom,” Mira tersenyum
rikuh. “Saya mencari rumah Oom.” Ayah Mira menghela napas berat sambil menatap
Mira tajam. Mira memperlihatkan senyumnya yang paling memelas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Yuk, naik!” Ayah Aoi memberi kode pada Mira untuk naik di
boncengannya, namun kentara sekali, ekspresi wajahnya kurang senang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Hati Mira bersorak. Ia
langsung nangkring di boncengan motor ayah Aoi sarnbil mengucapkan terima
kasih. Entah berapa kali motor itu berbelok memasuki gang-gang kecil. Wah...
temyata rumah Aoi masih jauh sekali dan jalan tempat Mira turun angkot tadi.
Berarti setiap hari Aoi jalan kaki beberapa ratus meter saat pergi dan pulang
sekolah. Wow! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Akhirnya tibalah mereka di sebuah rumah kecil. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mendengar suara motor berhenti, Aoi ke luar rumah. Betapa
terkejutnya Aoi saat melihat Mira datang bersama ayahnya. Penampilan Mira
benar-benar kucel dan lelah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya ampun, Mira! Masuk yuk!” ajak Aoi kemudian buru-buru
mengambil air putih untuk Mira. Dalam sekali tenggak, air putih di gelas
tandas. Aoi sampal geleng-geleng. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Lho, katanya sama Kelly?” tanya Aoi dengan suara keras. Dia
sengaja melakukan itu supaya ayahnya mendengar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kelly pulang karena kepanasan waktu nyari-nyari rumah kamu,”
balas Mira, juga dengan suara keras. Ia tahu maksud Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mungkin Aoi nggak enak hati sama ayahnya karena teman cewek
sekolahnya datang sendirian menemuinya. Mira takut ayah Aoi mengira ia dan Aoi
pacaran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira dan Aoi kemudian berdiskusi soal beberapa program kerja
OSIS yang harus segera dijalankan. Mira sesekali mengamati ayah Aoi yang duduk
menghadap laptop di ruang makan. Tak ada sekat antara ruang makan dengan ruang
tamu yang sempit. Rumah Aoi yang kecil terdiri atas ruang tamu yang dijejali &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
koleksi buku dan berbagal
foto di dinding, dua kamar tidur bersebelahan, serta ruang makan, dapur, dan
kamar mandi di bagian belakang. Ada sedikit sisa tanah di belakang dapur untuk
menjemur pakalan. Teras depan yang hanya berukuran &lt;b&gt;2X4 &lt;/b&gt;meter disesaki
tanaman hias dan tanaman gantung. Tidak ada ruang keluarga untuk menonton
televisi. Bahkan, Mira tidak menemukan televisi di rumah itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Sudah sore, Aoi. Ingat tugasmu!” seru ayah Aoi dan ruang
makan. Tatapan ayah Aoi tetap ke layar laptop, tak sedikit pun dia memandang
Aoi dan Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tugas apa?” bisik Mira pada Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm... masak untuk makan malam. Eh, diskusinya besok lagi
aja, ya? Kan kita juga perlu pendapat teman-teman lain,” kata Aoi agak
canggung. Sepertinya dia malu ketahuan harus masak. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Boleh. Mmm... aku bisa bantu kamu masak lho. Aku biasa masak.
Serius!” kata Mira sungguh-sungguh. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi menoleh pada ayahnya. “Mira boleh membantu kan, Yah?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm...” Ayah Aoi hanya berdeham. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tersenyum. Sepertinya dehaman itu berarti boleh. Aoi
mengajak Mira ke dapur. Saat melewati ayah Aoi, Mira sempat melihat layar
monitor laptopnya. Temyata pria itu sedang mengedit foto. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi dapumya kecil lho, Mir. Yang kami masak juga bahan-bahan
sederhana. Maklumlah...” Ucapan Aoi menggantung. Dia &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
sibuk mengeluarkan sayuran
dari kulkas dan meletakkannya ke meja keramik di sebelah kompor. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tersenyum. “lya, nggak apa-apa. Sini, biar aku yang
potong sayurannya. Sudah dicuci, kan?” kata Mira sambil mengambil pisau dari
rak piring. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sambil memotong-motong sayuran, Mira sesekali melirik ayah
Aoi. Tampang ayah Aoi serius sekali. Merasa sedang diperhatikan, tiba-tiba ayah
Aoi menoleh pada Mira. Gadis itu tentu kaget, kemudian buru-buru menunduk,
bergegas mengambil sayuran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Suasana mendadak hening. Tak ada yang membuka mulut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm...” Aoi berdeham. “Kamu sering masak, ya?” tanya Aoi,
heran melihat betapa cekatannya Mira mengaduk sayuran dalam wajan di kompor. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya. Aku suka bantuin Mbak Nunuk kalau teman-teman Mama
datang. Kan kami harus menyiapkan banyak makanan,” kata Mira sambil mematikan
api. Tanda masakannya matang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Wah, kayaknya enak nih!” Aoi mengambil sedikit masakan dengan
sendok, lalu mencicipi. Matanya melebar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Enak?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Jauh Iebih enak daripada tumis buatanku,” puji Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira senang sekali. Kemudian dia juga menggoreng tempe.
Setelah selesai, dia menyajikan masakan buatann ya di meja. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Sudah siap nih, Oom,” kata
Mira takut-takut. Ayah Aoi menutup laptop. Kemudian dia menatap Mira dengan
tajam. Mira ketakutan. Akankah ia diusir, atau masakannya dicemooh? &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Baik. Mari kita makan bersama. Duduklah.” Hati Mira melonjak
girang. “Terima kasih, Oom.” Mira mengambilkan nasi, yang tampaknya sudah
dimasak sejak pagi, untuk Aoi dan ayahnya dengan riang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Dia bahagia luar biasa. Perasaan yang sangat aneh menyelusup
ke hatinya. Tahu-tahu Mira merasa dirinya sungguh berharga. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Enak kan, masakan Mira, Yah?” tanya Aoi begitu mel ihat
ayahnya makan dengan lahap. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya, enak sekali. Seperti masakan... mmm... masakan...” Ayah
Aoi seolah berusaha mengingat seseorang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Masakan Ibu seperti ini, Yah?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Bukan... bukan masakan ibumu. Ini rasanya seperti masakan
seseorang dari masa lalu Ayah.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ayah Aoi termenung beberapa saat. “Tapi sudahlah... nggak
penting!” katanya buru-buru begitu melihat Aoi dan Mira menatapnya dengan
ekspresi penasaran. Ayah Aoi melanjutkan makan, hanya kali ini dengan gerakan
canggung. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Selesai makan, ayah Aoi menatap wajah Mira. Tapi dia tidak
mengucapkan sepatah kata pun. Sepertinya, dia tengah mengingat sesuatu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
SEMUA orang dapat melihat betapa ramah dan cerianya Mira
akhir-akhir ini. Mata bulatnya selalu berbinar-binar. Wajah Mira &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
yang manis terlihat semringah
dan ramah karena bibirnya selalu menyunggingkan senyum. Sungguh, Mira cantik
sekali, seakan hatinya tengah berbung-bunga. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Wah, belakangan ini kamu ceria sekali!” seru ibu Kelly ketika
Mira menjemput Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Terima kasih, Tante,” jawab Mira memberikan Senyum manis. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Lagi jatuh cinta, ya?” goda ibu Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ah, Tante. Nggak kok, Tan!” Mira tersipu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly keluar dari kamar, berseragam rapi. “lya tuh, Mira
kayaknya lagi jatuh cinta,” ujarnya sambil mengedipkan mata ke arah ibunya.
“Jangan-jangan... aha! Jangan-jangan Mira jatuh cinta pada Aoi deh! Betul kan
tebakanku, Mir?” Kelly nyengir pada Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Pikiran Mira melayang. Ia mengingat kembali kebersamaannya
bersama Aoi di rumah sakit, di kantor polisi, dan yang paling berkesan tentu
saja di rumah Aoi saat mereka memasak bersama. Sekarang Mira dan Aoi sering
mengerjakan tugas OSIS berdua. Mira akui, setiap bersama Aoi, hatinya senang
dan nyaman. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nah, kamu melamun, kan? Idih... benar nih, kamu jatuh cinta
pada Aol?” Mata Kelly melebar. Ekspresinya lucu sekali. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Udah, ah. Yuk berangkat!” Mira bangkit, kemudian melakukan
ritual. Dia mencium tangan ibu Kelly, kemudian mencium pipi Morati. “Dah,
Tante... Dah, Morati sayang...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Mira, Aoi kan miskin... ,“
kata Kelly hati-hati, saat mereka bejalan di trotoar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Memang kenapa kalau miskin?” tanya Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm... apa cocok denganmu? Walau gaya hidupmu tidak mewah,
kamu kaya, banyak perbedaan, kan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangkat bahu. “Nggak kerasa tuh. Aoi asyik-asyik aja
orangnya. Aku toh bukan tipe orang yang senang menghamburkan uang. Lagi pula,
Aoi mandiri. Pada usia semuda kita, dia sudah punya penghasilan sendiri.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi katamu, ayahnya galak?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Memang iya sih, tapi nggak masalah juga. Yang penting buatku,
Aoi baik dan otaknya pintar. Aku selalu mengagumi cowok pintar.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aiiih... yang lagi jatuh cinta!” Kelly geleng-geleng geli.
“Akhirnya kamu mengalami sendiri rasanya jatuh cinta. Semoga kamu nggak
ngerasain patah hati jugaseperti aku.” Kelly menggigit bibir. Rupanya dia masih
terkenang penolakan Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hai, Mira... Hai, Kelly...” Seperti biasa Riku menunggu
mereka setiap berangkat sekolah. “Kamu cerah sekali, Mir.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku tersenyum pada Mira. Namun ada yang aneh dengan senyum
Riku. Ya, Riku tahu Mira tengah jatuh cinta pada Aoi. Aoi sering cerita pada
Riku tentang kedekatannya dengan Mira sekarang. Riku cemburu. Dia menyayangi
Mira lebih dan sekadar sahabat. Dia ingin Mira jadi pacarnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Di gerbang sekolah ternyata
ada yang menanti kedatangan mereka. Aoi bersender di pagar besi. Senyumnya
mengembang begitu melihat Mira. Ya, tatapannya fokus pada Mira sebelum kemudian
ia menyapa Kelly dan Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira semakin berbunga-bunga. Ah, jatuh cinta memang indah! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
*** &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira kembali bertandang ke rumah Aoi pada hari Sabtu. Biasanya
Mira melewatkan akhir pekan di rumah Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Namun kini dia lebih suka memasak bersama Aoi. Mira senang Aoi
dan ayahnya menyukai masakannya. Sebaliknya, Mira bahagia bisa menghabiskan
waktu bersama cowok pujaannya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tumben ayahmu belum pulang jam segini?” tanya Mira ketika
sedang menggoreng udang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Jam kera Ayah nggak teratur. Kebetulan saja waktu itu Ayah
pulang sore. Kerja jadi juru kamera TV sering sampai larut malam. Itu pun,
sehabis kerja, kadang ayah masih hunting pemandangan bagus atau ngumpul dengan
teman-temannya di bengkel fotografi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ayahmu hobi fotografi juga?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya. Ayah sering memboroskan uangnya untuk hobi yang satu
itu. Salah satunya untuk jalan-jalan mencari gambar bagus.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Oh!” Mira manggut-manggut.
“Eh, kamu kok nggak pernah cerita tentang ibumu?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi diam sejenak. “Ibu berpisah dan Ayah waktu aku masih bayi.
Ibu kuliah lagi di luar negeri atas biaya orangtuanya yang kaya raya. Pernikahan
Ayah dan Ibu memang tidak direstui keluarga Ibu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh, pantas ayahmu alergi sama orang kaya,” sambung Mira
sambil tersenyum kecut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh, itu ceritanya lain. Sebelum menikah dengan Ibu, ayahku
pernah tergila-gila pada seorang perempuan kaya raya. Mereka pacaran beberapa
tahun. Ayah sangat mencintai perempuan itu. Tapi setelah lulus kuliah,
perempuan itu mencampakkan Ayah dan berpaling pada cowok kaya. Sakit hati Ayah
terbawa sampai Sekarang,” terang Aoi. “Padahal Ayah sudah menyiapkan tabungan untuk
pernikahan mereka. Ayah stres berat. Hingga akhirnya Ayah bertemu dengan ibuku
dan dalam waktu cepat mereka menikah. Tapi apa boleh buat, mereka berpisah
juga. Ayah punya kehidupan aneh. Dia suka bepergian dalam waktu lama, berburu
gambar bagus di hutan dan daerah pedalaman, bahkan pernah sampai ke luar
negeri. Sebenarnya penghasilan Ayah lumayan, tapi uangnya habis untuk hobinya
itu. Juga untuk anak-anak asuhnya...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Anak asuh?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Iya. Sejak kecil aku punya saudara-saudara asuh. Ayah
penyumbang tetap di beberapa panti asuhan. Kami berusaha nggak egois, Mir. Bagi
kami, hidup Sederhana seperti ini cukup. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Ada kelebihan uang kami
sumbangkan untuk orang yang masih kekurangan.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mendesah, rnerasa tak enak hati rnendengar cerita Aoi.
Walau sekarang sikap ayah Aoi sudah mencair, tetap saja Mira cemas ayah Aoi
mendadak tidak menyukainya. Mira terdiam cukup lama sampai akhirnya dikagetkan
kedatangan ayah Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Eh, ada Mira di sini. Lagi masak apa, Mir?” sapa ayah Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Udang goreng tepung, Oom.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Wow! Aromanya tercium dan luar. Tapi kayaknya Oom nggak
belanja udang deh.” Ayah Aoi mengerutkan dahi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tadi saya mampir ke supermarket sebelum ke sini.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh...” Ayah Aoi duduk di wang makan. Dia memperhatikan
gerak-gerik Mira. Ekspresinya lagi-lagi seperti sedang mengingat-ingat sesuatu
atau seseorang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ayah mau minum apa?” tanya Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm... Mir, yang segar dan menghangatkan saat udara dingin
begini apa ya?” Ayah Aoi malah bertanya pada Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm, apa ya?” Mira berpikir sejenak. “Aha! Saya akan buatkan
minuman hangat untuk Oom! Tunggu lima belas menit ya!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ayah Aoi menganggu-angguk sambil tersenyum samar. Lagi-lagi
dia terlihat seperti sedang meyakinkan dirinya sendiri atas sesuatu. Lima belas
menit kemudian, saat Aoi menyiapkan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
makan malam di meja, Mira
menyajikan minuman istimewa untuk ayah Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ini terdiri dari...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Jahe, sereh, sedikit asam, madu, dan gula merah,” kata ayah
Aoi memotong keterangan Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira kaget, tak menyangka ayah Aoi tahu racikan minuman yang
dibuatnya. Padahal seingat Mira, Mama bilang, minuman itu memakai resep khusus
keluarga Mama. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ayah Aoi mengambil sendok kecil untuk mencicipi minuman buatan
Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm... persis!” desis ayah Aoi sambil menatap Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira duduk termangu. Dia heran, dan mana ayah Aoi tahu resep minuman
keluarganya itu? Minuman itu kesukaan Mama dan Mama selalu membuat sendiri,
tidak pemah minta tolong Mbak Nunuk. Aneh! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ayah Aoi manyantap makan malam tanpa bicara Sepatah kata pun.
Bahkan dia tidak mengomentari lagi udang tepung yang dibuat Mira. Aoi ikut
diam. Yang terdengar hanya denting sendok dan pining. Tak ada yang bennisiatif
memulai pembicaraan. Mira merasa tak nyaman dengan situasi tegang seperti itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Usai makan, saat Mira dan Aoi mencuci pining, ayah Aoi tetap
bergeming di kursi makan, menikmati minuman hangatnya sambil melamun. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ayahmu kenapa?” bisik Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Nggak tahu,” jawab Aol,
menggeleng. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Abis ini aku Iangsung pulang aja ya.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku antar sampai halte.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangguk. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Usai mencuci piring dan membersihkan dapur, Mira pamit pada
ayah Aoi. Lelaki itu tak menjawab, hanya mengibaskan tangan. Sikapnya kembali
dingin, seperti pertama kali berjumpa Mira. Dengan perasaan tak keruan, Mira
beringsut undur diri. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ayahmu kenapa?” tanya Mira lagi saat dia dan Aoi sudah di
luar rumah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Entahlah.” Aoi mengangkat bahu. “Ayahku memang aneh.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ada apa dengan minuman buatanku? Ayahmu menikmatinya sambil
melamun. Sepertinya sejak kuberi minuman itu ayahmu jadi aneh.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Entahlah. Mungkin Ayah teringat seseorang. Aku juga nggak
tahu, Mira.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mendesah sedih. “Sepertinya ayahmu betu-lbetul nggak
menyukaiku. Padahal aku senang sekali tadi ayahmu menyapaku ramah, saat mencium
udang masakanku. Ternyata sebentar saja ayahmu berubah.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Sudahlah, Mir. Sifat ayahku memang unik. Mmm... maaf ya. Aku
mengantarmu sampal halte aja, nggak bisa mengajakmu jalan-jalan malam Minggu
begini.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira berhenti sambil menatap
Aoi. “Kebersamaan kita di rumahmu itu lebih berarti daripada seribu kali
jalan-jalan ke mal. Aku senang bersamamu, memasak, dan berbincang denganmu,”
kata Mira sungguh-sungguh. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tersenyum lembut. Dia berdiri di hadapan Mira, lalu meraih
kedua tangan cewek itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Tanpa Mira duga, Aoi mencium punggung tangan Mira dengan
sepenuh hati. Jantung Mira berdegup kencang. Rasanya bagai terbang ke langit ketujuh.
Selain itu, Mira juga rikuh. Mereka ada di gang sempit dan bagai sedang
melakukan adegan film romantis. Wajah Mira merona merah. Senang, sekaligus
malu. Aoi menatap wajah Mira yang kemerahan. “Terima kasih ya, Mir. Hidupku
jadi berwarna karena kehadiranmu. Aku juga nggak merasa kesepian lagi karena
ada kamu yang bisa kulamunkan. Kamu mengisi hidupku yang kering dengan senyum
dan kecenaanmu. Kini hidupku betul-betul indah. Semua karena kamu, Mir.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tersenyum. “Aku juga sangat bahagia. Aku senang bisa
bersamamu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Keduanya tersenyum, kemudian melanjutkan perjalanan sambil
bergandengan tangan. Mira merasa sedih saat sampai di halte. Itu berarti dia
harus segera berpisah dan Aoi. Begitu pun Aoi, berat sekali melepas Mira
pulang. Ingin rasanya Aoi memeluk Mira dan tak melepaskannya lagi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm... hati-hati, ya... ,“ kata Aoi akhirnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangguk. Dengan berat
hati dia melepas tangan Aoi saat bus datang. Dengan enggan Mira memasuki bus,
duduk di sisi jendela, kemudian memandang Aoi yang melambaikan tangan ke
arahnya. Entahlah, ada perasaan aneh merayapi hatinya. Perpisahan yang
seharusnya menjadi peristiwa biasa kali itu terasa menyedihkan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sepanjang perjalanan pulang Mira melamun. Hatinya sedih karena
tak sempat bermalam mingguan dengan Aoi dan ngobrol banyak hal.Begitu pun Aoi.
Ia berjalan lesu pulang ke rumah. Ada sesuatu yang membuat dadanya sesak, entah
apa. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
*** &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Hingga larut malam Mira masih gelisah, tak mampu terpejam
sekejap pun. Jantungnya berdebar kencang, sekalipun posisinya terbaring. Yang
ada di otaknya hanya Aoi. Ingin rasanya dia berlari kembali ke rumah Aoi,
memeluknya, dan mengatakan betapa dia sangat mencintai cowok itu. Yah, Mira
yakin dia jatuh cinta pada Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menghubungi nomor HP Aol, tapi HP Aol tidak aktif.
Akhirnya Mira memberanikan diii menelepon rumah Aol. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Halo...” Suara di seberang jelas suara ayah Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oom, Aoi sudah tidur atau belum?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ini sudah hampir tengah malam!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Telepon di seberang ditutup
dengan kasar, Mira terperangah. Dia menyesal teiah bertindak bodoh. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aduh! Mengapa aku nekat nelepon Aoi ya? Ayah Aoi pasti marah
besar! Duh, apa yang salah sih dengan sore tadi? Kok ayah Aoi bisa berubah
seperti itu? Duh... bagaimana dong? Aku mengacaukan segalanya, keluh Mira. Dia
membanting tubuh ke ranjang, memeluk guling, dan mulal menangis. Hatinya kesal
dan semakin gelisah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira baru pulas setelah jam dua dini hari. Padahal pagi-pagi
sekali Mira janji menjemput Mama di bandara. Sekarang jelas tidak mungkin. Mira
bangun kesiangan. Begitu melihat jam, waktu sudah menunjukkan pukul delapan
pagi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira takut mamanya marah padanya. Buru-buru dia mandi. Dia
tidak sarapan karena nggak keburu. Mama pasti sedang menunggu di bandara sambil
ngomel-ngomel. Mira turun ke ruang makan untuk pamit pada Mbak Nunuk. Namun,
ternyata mamanya sudah duduk manis di ruang makan sambil membaca koran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mama!” pekik Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm, tumben kamu malas? Matahari sudah tinggi baru bangun,
sampai nggak menjemput Mama di bandara,” tegur Mama sambil menurunkan koran.
Diageleng-geleng memandang anaknya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira meringis. “Maaf, Ma. Semalam Mira belajar sampal larut
malam,” katanya berbohong. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Ya sudah. Sekarang kita
sarapan dulu yuk!” ajak Mama. “Mbak Nunuk bikin telur dadar kesukaanmu nih.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menghela napas lega. Tumben, mamanya nggak marah-marah
seperti biasa. Sebetulnya Mira heran dengan kebiasaan mamanya marah-marah di
rumah. Emosi Mama berada pada posisi tegangan tinggi melulu. Mama tak pernah
menghabiskan waktu di rumah untuk santai. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kapan Papa pulang, Ma?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Wah, Mama juga belum tahu. Mungkin Selasa. Bagaimana
sekolahmu, Mir? Tidak ada kesulitan, kan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm... menyenangkan kok, Ma.” Mira tersenyum. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mendadak sosok Aoi menghiasi pikirannya. Ya, Aoi yang membuat
sekolah menjadi sangat menyenangkan baginya kini. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama menatap Mira curiga. “Menyenangkan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menelan ludah. Glek. Salah jawab deh! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Maksud Mira... ngg... penuh tantangan! Ya, semua siswanya
pintar, jadi Mira harus menyiapkan diri untuk bersaing,” ralat Mira sambil
menunjuk kepala. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama tersenyuni samar, kemudian meneruskan sarapan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menghela napas lega. Untunglah Mama tak memperpanjang.
Jantung Mira sempat melompat. Dia takut mamanya tahu dirinya sedang jatuh
cinta. Bisa marah besar deh Mama, lalu Mama bakal tinggal lama nih untuk
mengawasi semua gerak-gerik Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Bisa jadi Mama ngotot
mengantar dan inenjemput Mira sekolah. Mira tak akan leluasa bergerak bebas,
apalagi untuk main bersama Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ma, Mira boleh nggak sore nanti main ke rumah teman?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Siapa? Kelly?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Bukan, teman cowok. Dia ketua OSIS, ada beberapa hal yang
ingin Mira bicarakan dengannya.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ups. Mira langsung menutup mulut. Kenapa dia kelepasan ngomong
mau ke rumah cowok sih? &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Orangtuanya kerja apa?” tanya Mama menyelidik. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm...” Mira bingung mau menjawab apa. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Dan kelas atas seperti kita?” lanjut Mama tanpa menunggu Mira
menjawab pertanyaannya yang pertama. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm...” Sekarang Mira garuk-garuk kepala. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kalau nggak, nggak usah. Jangan bergaul sama kaum bawah.
Hidupmu akan susah. Bagaimanapun uang tetap berperan besar dalam menciptakan
kebahagiaan.Makanya kamu sekolah yang pintar, supaya kamu bisa kuliah di luar
negeri dan kelak jadi orang sukses.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menatap mamanya dengan sedih. “Ma... Mama kok gitu sih?
Mira ingin bergaul dengan semua orang tanpa membedakan status sosialnya, Ma.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Bergaul boleh. Tapi ingat,
kamu tidak boleh jatuh cinta pada cowok yang tidak jelas status sosialnya.
Tidak baik buat masa depanmu!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mematung, nanar menatap Mama yang masih asyik sarapan
sambil niembaca koran. Kata-kata yang meluncur dengan nada datar dan mulut
mamanya begitu menohok hati Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama mendongak, menatap Mira. “Kok malah melamun? SI ketua
OSIS apamu? Bukan pacarrnu, kan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kali ini Mama menatap Mira dengan penuh selidik, rnembuat Mira
salah tingkah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Dia hanya teman kok,” jawab Mira lirih. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mamanya menatapnya tajam. “Benar?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangguk. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi matamu mengatakan yang sebaliknya. Sore nanti Mama akan
ajak kamu belanja. Kamu boleh membeli apa saja yang kamu inginkan. Sekarang
Mama mauistirahat sebentar, lalu ke salon. Mau ikut?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira melipat wajah. Mamanya selalu mengimingi minginya barang
mewah. Mira sudah hafal hal itu dan dia tidak tertarik. Tapi Mama juga pantang
ditolak. Mira harus selalu menuruti kemauannya, bahkan dalam hal memberi hadiah
pun, Mira dipaksa menerimanya. Tapi kali mi dada Mira sesak karena mengingat
Aoi. Seandainya Mama tahu keadaan Aoi. Jika saja Mama melihat rumah Aoi. Kalau
Mama kenal ayah Aoi. Sudah &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
pasti...ya, sudah pasti
hubungannya dengan Aoi akan ditentang habis-habisan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Gimana? Mau ikut ke salon?” desak Mama. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nggak, Ma,” sahut Mira, kemudian berjalan Setengah berlari
naik ke kamarnya. Gadis manis itu melempar tubuh ke kasur dan menangis sedih. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ternyata jatuh cinta rasanya sangat nggak enak. Hati selalu
gelisah, rindu, dan ingin bertemu orang yang dicintai. Kalau jatuh cinta
rasanya nggak enak begini!, kenapa semua orang mau mengalaminya? Jatuh cinta
sungguh membuatku aneh, tertawa sendiri, melamun, berkhayal, dan jantungku
selalu berdebar. Aku sulit tidur dan susah makan. Aku tiba-tiba menjadi
pemalas. Auhhh! Begini ya rasanya jatuh cinta. Lantas, apakah Aoi juga
mengalaminya? Oh God, aku bisa gila kalau Aoi nggak mencintaiku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menuliskan rasa hatinya dalarn buku biru. Dia hanya bisa
menulis dan menulis. Dia tak mau berbagi pada siapa pun saat itu, bahkan pada
Kelly sekalipun. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira kemudian duduk di balkon kamar, mendengarkan lagu First
Love sambil tersenyum-senyum sendini. Mira merasa link lagu itu persis dengan
yang dialaminya saat itu. Seorang gadis yang sedang jatuh cinta, tingkahnya
mendadak aneh sehingga semua orang dapat melihat perubahannya. Sepanjang hari
hanya melamun, namun malu untuk menceritakannya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tersenyum sendiri. Mmm... aku nggak sabar menanti han
esok untuk menyatakan cintaku pada Aoi. Ya ampun, Aoi, aku harap kamu juga
merasakan apa yangkurasakan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Mira!” panggil Mama dan
lantai bawah. “Mau ikut ke salon nggak? Kalau mau, buruan slap-slap!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nggak, Ma!” seru Mira kesal karena lamunan indahnya terputus
begitu saja. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ya, untuk saat ini Mira tidak menginginkan apa pun. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Dia hanya ingin mengkhayalkan Aoi. Rasanya mengasyikkan
merangkai cerita tentang kedekatan mereka, walaupun cuma di pikiran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tersenyum. Dia teringat saat Kelly jatuh cinta pada Riku.
Mira menertawakan kekonyolan Kelly, namun sekarang Mira kena batunya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ah, mumpung Mama ke salon, kenapa aku nggak ke rumah Aoi saja?
pikir Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
SEORANG bapak berumur enam puluhan menginjak kaki Mira
sehingga Mira yang saat itu hanya memakai sandal meringis. Namun sebelum bapak
tersebut minta maaf, Mira sudah tersenyum terlebih dahulu padanya. ltulah
hebatnya orang jatuh cinta. Rasa sakit terkalahkan rasa bahagia di hati yang
begitu indah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Siang itu Mira sedang dalam perjalanan ke rumah Aoi. Udara
panas dan keharusan berdini berdesakan di bus yang penuh sesak tidak
dipedulikannya. Mira rela berkeringat dan merasakan ketidaknyamanan sesaat demi
bertemu pujaan hatinya. Jantung Mira semakin berdebar begitu mendekati rumah
Aoi. Perasaannya tak keruan, antara takut bertemu ayah Aoi dan keinginan yang
kuat untuk berjumpa Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Aoi!” panggil Mira sambil
mengetuk pintu rumah Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sunyi. Tak ada sahutan dan dalam. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aoi!” seru Mira sambil mengintip dari sela-sela jendela kaca.
Di dalam terlihat gelap. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mendesah, kemudian duduk di bangku teras untuk melepas
lelah. Aoi tidak di rumah. Bodohnya Mira, karena tak menghubungi Aoi Iebih
dahulu sebelum bertandang. Oh iya... HP! Mira mengeluarkan HP, lalu mulal
menghubungi nomor Aoi. Berkali-kali Mira mencoba menelepon Aoi, tapi nomor
tersebut tak bisa dihubungi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi... kamu di mana? Aku kangen sekali, gumam Mira sambil
menatap langit yang baru disadarinya sangat mendung. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mempemiainkan HP di tangannya. Dia gelisah tiada tara.
Dadanya sesak oleh rindu dan kecewa. Seandainya sedang berada di dalam
kamarnya, mungkin Mira sudah menangis sesenggukan. Apa boleh buat, cairan
bening di kelopak mata harus ditahan sekuatnya. Dia berada di halaman rumah
orang. Malu kalau sampai ada yang melihatnya menangis di situ. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Tiba-tiba bulir-bulir air turun dari langit. Pertama-tama
berupa gerimis, namun menderas dengan cepat. Mira terjebak di teras Aoi. Dia
tak mungkin pulang karena tidak membawa payung. Terlebih hujan turun disertai
angin yang bertiup kencang. Mira sampai harus berdiri merapat pada pintu agar
tidak terkena semburan air yang terbawa angin. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Aoi, pulang dong, keluh Mira
sambil menggosok-gosok kedua lengan yang terasa dingin. Masih untung dia
memakai celana panjang sehingga kakinya terasa lebih hangat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Duh, kenapa harus hujan sih? Tadi kan matahari terik sekali,
keluh Mira seraya mendesah sedih. Hujan tak kunjung berhenti. Berkali-kali Mira
melihat arlojinya. Sepuluh menit, setengah jam, satu jam, satu jam lima belas
menit... &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kalau Mama pulang dan tahu aku nggak ada di rumah, bagaimana?
Mira kian gelisah. Meski kedinginan dan dihantui rasa takut pada mamanya, Mira
tetap tak menyesali pilihannya untuk pergi ke rumah Aoi. Mira bahkan bertekad
akan menunggu sampai Aoi pulang. Mira berjanji akan melupakan penderitaannya
slang itu bila dia berhasil bertemu Aoi dan melihat wajah tenang serta menatap
mata teduhnya. Mira tersenyum. Membayangkan wajah Aoi menghibur hatinya. Ah,
cinta memang aneh! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Hujan tetap deras, teras Aoi mulal digenangi air. Mira duduk
kembali di bangku sambil mengangkat kedua kaki. Dia tak menyangka teras
tersebut bisa banjir. Ternyata teras Aoi Iebih rendah daripada jalanan. Air
mulal masuk, meski dihalangi tanggul seadanya. Mira termenung. Dia duduk sambil
memeluk lutut. Hatinya berharap Aoi atau ayahnya segera pulang. Berkali-kali
Mira mencoba menghubungi Aol lagi, namun teleponnya tak pemah tersambung. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kira-kira Aoi ke mana ya? Ke pasar? Ke mal? Mengunjungi
saudara? Mengapa belum pulang juga? Ah, Mira, kenapa kamu jadi bodoh? Ini kan
hujan. Aoi pasti menunda pulang! Huh... Mira mendengus kesal. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira mencoba menghibur diri
dengan mendengarkan musik dan HP. Namun, yang terjadi Mira justru menangis saat
musik syahdu menyentuh hatinya. Lama Mira berurai air mata sambil terisak-isak
karena terh anyut lagu-lagu Lawas bertema cinta. Uh... Aoi, pulang dan hibur
aku dong! batin Mira merengek. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Tuuut...! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Hp Mira mati karena kehabisan baterai. Mira. terpaku. Dia tak
tahu harus bagaimana lagi menghibur dirinya sendiri. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aku benci jatuh cinta. Jatuh cinta membuatku begitu bodoh.
Mengapa aku harus ke rumah Aoi? Mengapa harus mau menunggu begitu lama dalam
kedinginan dan tapar? Jatuh cinta rnembuatku begitu tolol! Mira merutuki
kesialannya. Tapi tak ada yang bisa dilakukannya selain duduk dan menunggu
hujan reda. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Hujan baru berhenti menjelang sore. Mira betul-betul lapar dan
haus. Dia nekat menurunkan kakinya yang pegal ke dalam air keruh yang
menggenang di teras. Lalu kedua kakinya diayun-ayunkan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kalau pulang sekarang, nanggung. Sebentar lagi pasti Aoi
pulang. Ya, Aoi akan segera pulang. Aku harus sabar menunggu dan nggak boleh
putus asa, Mira menguatkan hati. Huh, kenapa sih nggak ada penjual makanan yang
lewat? Aku lapar sekali. Ah, aku memang bodoh. Jalanan tergenang banjir begini,
siapa yang mau jualan? Sabaaar. Aoi pasti dalam perjalanan pulang, lagi-lagi
Mira menghibur diri. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mendesah sedih. Kakinya terus bermain air, tak peduli
ujung-ujung jarinya mulai keriput. Akhirnya hati Mira sampal &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
juga pada titik yang
menunjukkan perjuangannya menunggu Aoi sia-sia belaka. Mira menyerah dan
memutuskan pulang. Petang menjelang. Malam siap memayungi Jakarta dengan
kegetapan. Mira menggigil kedinginan. Sebelum meninggalkan rumah Aoi, dia
menuliskan sebuah pesan, lalu meletakkannya di bangku. Kemudian Mira melangkah
pelan, menerjang banjir yang masih menggenangi jalan. Hatinya pilu. Air mata
deras mengalir di pipi. Beberapa kali Mira hampir jatuh. Tubuhnya lemah dan
sempoyongan karena lapar. Dia berhasil sampal di pinggir jalan raya, namun sama
sekali tidak berpapasan dengan Aoi di gang. Pupus sudah harapannya bertemu Aoi
saat itu. Mira mencegat taksi. Dia meringkuk di kursi belakang sambil terus
menangis dan menggigil. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Saya antar Mbak ke dokter saja ya?” Sopir taksi terlihat
cemas. Berkali-kali dia melihat Mira dan kaca spion. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tidak usah, &lt;i&gt;Pak. &lt;/i&gt;Terima kasih,” balas Mira pelan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mbak yakin baik-baik saja?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Iya. Saya cuma kedinginan. Tolong kecilkan AC-nya.” Sopir
taksi menuruti permintaan penumpangnya. Kalau bisa dia ingin memacu taksinya
kencang, tapi jalanan macet. Tak ada yang bisa diperbuat. Mira mencoba
bertahan. Dia tak mau kalah oleh rasa dingin dan lapar. Mira meyakinkan din
sendiri bahwa dia baik-baik saja, hanya hatinya yang sakit. Dia memb ayangkan
pengungsi korban bencana yang jauh Iebih menderita. Kehilangan keluarga,
kehilangan harta, dan tak ada yang bisa dimakan. Tubuh Mira menjadi Iebih
hangat saat membayangkan betapa beruntungnya dia karena tak kehilangan apa pun.
Bahkan, Mira masih dianugerahi perasaan cinta. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Begitu tiba di rumah, Mira
disambut wajah cemas Mama dan Mbak Nunuk. Belum sernpat menjawab satu
pertanyaan pun, Mira pingsan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira!” seru Mama kaget. Segera ía menangkap tubuh Mira yang
basah kuyup. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mbak Nunuk menangis melihat Mira yang ambruk bagai pohon layu
diterjang angin. Berdua Mama, Mbak Nunuk membopong tubuh ningkih Mira menuju
sofa. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama mengganti baju Mira, melap dengan handuk bersih, dan
menghangatkan tubuhnya dengan minyak kayu putih. Dokter keluarga segera
dipanggil. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Dokter bilang, Mira hanya kedinginan dan akan segera pulih.
Mama sampai geleng-geleng. Dia begitu ingin menanyai Mira kenapa bisa seperti
itu, tapi masih belum tega melihat kondisi lemah anaknya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Begitu Mira siuman, Mbak Nunuk senang bukan main. Dia memijiti
tangan Mira. Melihat itu, Mira tersenyum haru. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mama mana, Mbak?” tanya Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Sedang makan malam dengan Dokter Awan. Non kenapa bisa sampai
kelaparan sih? Non kan bawa uang. Kenapa nggak jajan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menghela napas panjang. Dadanya kembali sesak dan matanya
berkaca-kaca. Namun dia tak ingin menangis lagi. Mbak Nunuk menatapnya,
menunggu jawaban dan mulut Mira. “Mama Non tadi khawatir sekali. HP Non nggak
bisa dihubungi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mbak Kelly dan Mas Riku juga
nggak tahu Non pergi ke mana.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Sudahlah, Mbak. Nggak penting lagi sekarang.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Non, ini Jakarta. Mbak khawatir Non diculik. Lain kali kalau
pergi HP-nya diaktifkan. Hampir saja tadi mama Non lapor polisi saking
cemasnya.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira termenung. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Tiba-tiba Mama memasuki kamar dengan wajah datar, kemudian
duduk di tepi ranjang. “Mir, ke mana kamu seharian? Mama hampir mati ketakutan.
Mama takut kamu kenapa-napa. Tolong jawab Mama sejujurnya. Mama janji nggak
akan marah,” pinta mamanya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira memiringkan tubuh, kemudian menarik selimut hingga
menutup kepala. Mira menangis tertahan. Dia belum siap berbicara pada mamanya.
Mira tahu mamanya pasti marah. Nggak mungkin nggak marah kalau tahu Mira jadi
seperti itu gara-gara seorang cowok. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama mendesah panjang. “Mama janji nggak akan marah, asal kamu
bercerita jujur. Kamu ke mana tadi?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Tubuh Mira berguncang. Tangisnya meledak. Dia tetap menutup
mulut rapat-rapat karena betul-betul tidak mau membagi kisahnya tentang Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama menyerah, dan tidak lagi membujuk Mira bicara. Dia
meninggalkan Mira dan Mbak Nunuk yang ikut menangis. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mbak Nunuk tak pernah tahan
melihat Mira menangis. Apalagi kali ini Mira menangis begitu hebat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira mau sendirian, Mbak!” pinta Mira dengan suara serak. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi Non makan dulu ya?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira mau bobo.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi, Non...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tinggalkan Mira sekarang, Mbak. Mira kepingin sendiri,” kali
itu Mira betul-betul memohon. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mbak Nunuk tak berdaya. Nasi dan lauk di meja samping ranjang
ditutupnya dengan tudung saji kecil. “Nanti makan ya, Non. Teh angetnya juga
diminum biar Non kuat kembali. Mbak keluar dulu. Kalau ada apa-apa, panggil
Mbak aja. Ntar Mbak ke sini.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tidak menjawab. Dia semakin membenamkan kepala ke bawah
selimut dan kembali menangis. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
* * * &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Pagi-pagi sekali, meski tubuhnya masih panas dan suaranya
serak, Mira nekat berangkat ke sekolah diantar Pak Bardi, sopir keluarga Mira.
Mama dan Mbak Nunuk tak bisa menahan Mira. Gadis manis itu tetap &lt;i&gt;keukeuh &lt;/i&gt;menganggap
dirinya baik-baik &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
saja. Mira memaksakan diri ke
sekolah untuk bertemu Aoi. Dia sampal lupa menjemput Kelly seperti biasanya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nanti saya jemput ya, Non,” kata pak Bardi saat Mira turun
dan mobil. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya, terima kasih, Pak,” balas Mira, kemudian berlari tak
sabar untuk menemui Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi belum datang, Mira menunggu di depan kelas Aoi dengan
sabar, meski terselip kegelisahan di hatinya. “Mira!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sebuah suara mengagetkan Mira. Kelly berdiri di hadapan Mira.
Wajahnya cemas campur dongkol. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya ampun, Mira! Kemarin mamamu lebih dan sepuluh kali
meneleponku, nanyain kamu. Kamu ke mana saja?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nanti aku cerita. Sekarang aku menunggu Aoi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Memangnya Aoi kenapa?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangkat bahu. Dia juga tidak tahu untuk apa menunggu
Aoi: ingin menyatakan perasaannya atau ingin marah karena sampal pagi ini Aoi
tidak juga menghubunginya. Padahal kemarin Mira meninggalkan pesan di bangku
teras Aoi. Seharusnya Aoi melihat pesan Mira ketika pulang ke rumah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mir, kok kamu pucat?” kata Kelly sambil meletakkan tangan di
dahi Mira. “Ya ampun, kamu panas sekali! Kamu pulang saja deh, Mir. Aku
teleponkan sopirmu ya? Atau mau langsung pulang sekarang? Aku antar pakal
taksi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menggeleng. “Aku mau ketemu Aoi dulu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Hei, kalian berdua kok ada
di sini?” Riku datang dan menyapa. “Aku menunggu kalian di jalan, kok nggak
lewat-lewat. Temyata sudah sampai di sini. Ada apa? Mau bertemu siapa di
kelasku?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira dan Kelly tidak menjawab. Dua cewek itu terlihat bingung.
Riku merasa ada yang tidak beres saat dia menatap Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira? Kamu pucat banget! Oh iya, ke mana seharian kemarin?
Kami ikut cemas karena nggak mendengar kabarmu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira hanya mengangkat bahu dengan lesu. Riku menatap Kelly
dengan pandangan bertanya. Kelly menggeleng. Dia juga tidak tahu apa yang
terjadi pada sahabatnya itu. “Mira menunggu Aoi,” sahut Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Biasanya Aoi sudah datang jam segini,” kata Riku, kemudian
melongok ke kelas. “Aneh. Biasanya dia datang paling awal Iho. Sungguh!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku kemudian mengambil HP dan dalam tas. Dia beru saha
menghubungi Aoi. “Aneh. HP.nya nggak aktif tuh! Memangnya ada masalah apa
antara kamu dengan Aoi, Mir?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menggeleng. Matanya yang kemerahan terus menatap lorong
depan kelas, berharap Aoi muncul dari kejauhan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly mendesah. Dia menemani sahabatnya itu menanti Aoi. Namun
hingga bel masuk berbunyl, Aoi tak juga muncul. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mir, aku masuk kelas dulu, ya. Mungkmn Aoi terlambat. Atau kalau
hari ini dia nggak datang, nanti sepulang sekolah aku antar kamu ke rumahnya,”
kata Riku sebelum masuk kelas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“lya... terima kasih,” balas
Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira berjalan lunglai ke kelasnya bagai macan kalah tarung.
Macan yang luka parah dan berdarah-darah, hingga tak mampu merasakan sakitnya
lagi. Di dalam kelas Mira bengong kayak macan ompong. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Sudahlah, Mir. Aku antar kamu pulang, ya?” Kelly prihatin
melihat Mira. Wajah Mira semakin pucat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Akhirnya Mira mengangguk. Tubuhnya semakin lemah dan kepalanya
berat. Mira butuh tidur. Guru mengizinkan Mira pulang. Namun sebelum pulang,
Mira sengaja melewati kelas Aoi. Mira melongok ke kelas Aoi. Ternyata orang
yang dicarinya ada di dalam kelas! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aoi,” gumam Mira seraya menuju pintu kelas Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mir, mau ngapain?” bisik Kelly cemas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira nekat mengetuk pintu kelas Aoi. Lalu Ia minta izin pada
guru kelas Aoi, agar Aoi boleh keluar kelas sebentar. Mira berbohong pada bu
guru bahwa ada tugas OSIS yang harus dibicarakan dengan Aoi segera. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi keluar kelas dengan wajah tak ramah. “Ada apa ya?
“tanyanya dengan nada datar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kita bicara di ruang OSIS, ya?” pinta Mira memelas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Tanpa menjawab, Aoi berjalan mendahulul menuju ruang OSIS,
dilkuti Mira dan Kelly. Tiba di ruang OSIS, Kelly duduk di bangku kayu di
koridor, sementara Mira dan Aoi masuk ke ruangan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Kamu menerima pesanku
kemarin?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Pesan? Nggak tuh!” balas Aoi tak bersahabat. Sikapnya
mendadak kembali seperti dulu waktu mereka baru kenal. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh...,” desah Mira kecewa. Melihat sikap Aoi, rasanya Mira
tak sanggup lagi bicara. Tubuhnya terasa lemas dan demamnya nieninggi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi diam saja, tak menanyakan keadaan Mira yang tampak payah.
Aoi bahkan tak menatap Mira sedikit pun. Dia memandangi deretan poster di
dinding. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Seharian kemarin aku menunggumu dalam hujan. Dingin, lapar,
dan kakiku terendam banjir. Kamu ke mana saja, Aoi? Aku mencoba menghubungimu,
tapi HP-mu nggak aktif.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya salahmu sendiri!” desis Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tak percaya Aoi mengatakan hal itu. Dada Mira begitu
sesak, matanya berkaca-kaca, dan bibirnya kelu. Ada apa dengan Aoi? Mira tak
habis pikir. Hanya dalam waktu kurang dan 24 jam, sikap cowok itu berubah 180
derajat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menelan ludah. Matanya basah saat Ia menatap Aoi dengan
hati hancur berkeping-keping. Namun, Aoi terus menatap ke dinding, tak mau
berpaling untuk memandang wajah Mira barang sebentar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aoi... aku sayang banget sama kamu. Kemarin aku datang untuk
mengatakan betapa aku menyukaimu,” kata Mira lemah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi tetap membeku. Mira berdiri susah payah sambil berpegangan
pada meja. Ia melangkah sempoyongan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
meninggalkan Aoi. Kelly
menyambutnya di luar, kemudian membantu Mira berjalan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi membeku di tempatnya, tatapan matanya kosong, namun
matanya basah oleh air mata. Aku juga sangat menyayangimu, Mira, gumam Aoi
pilu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
MIRA tergolek lemah di rumah sakit. Ia terserang tifus. Tapi
bagi Mira, yang paling sakit adalah hatin ya, bukan tubuhnya. Dia terus berurai
air mata. Namun gadis itu tak mau berbicara pada siapa pun untuk men gurangi
bebannya. Tiap kali ditanya, Mira hanya men angis. Bahkan saat Kelly
menjenguknya, belum sempat sahabatnya itu bertanya, Mira sudah menangis. Mama
Mira sangat mengkhawatirkan kondisi putri tunggalnya itu. Papa Mira juga tak
bisa membujuk anakn ya untuk bercerita. Mira seolah menyimpan sendiri isi
hatinya yang meluap-luap, hingga meluber dalam bentuk air mata. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ini tentang Aoi, kan? Kemarin kamu hampir pingsan saat keluar
ruang OSIS. Aku akan menemui Aoi sekarang juga,” kata Kelly geram. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tolong tanyakan kenapa dia seperti memusuhiku kemarin,” pinta
Mira memelas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Pasti. Aku akan mengorek apa pun yang bisa ku apat darinya,”
balas Kelly sebelum pergi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Di depan rumah sakit Kelly bertemu Riku yang hendak menjenguk
Mira. Kelly menceritakan keadaan Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm... kalau gitu aku antar kamu ke rumah Aoi saja. Mungkin
aku bisa membujuk Aoi bicara,” kata Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Kelly tersenyum senang. Terus
terang, sebenarnya Kelly tidak suka harus ke rumah Aoi seorang din. Tapi demi
sahabatnya, dia rela. Untung ada Riku yang menemaninya. Mereka berdua naik taksi
menuju rumah Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly tak habis pikir, mengapa Mira, si tegar dan tombol itu,
tiba-tiba bisa menjadi sangat lemah dan sensitif. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Menurutmu apa yang terjadi?” tanya Riku penasaran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Entahlah. Kemarin mereka bicara dl ruang OSIS hanya sebentar.
Saat keluar ruangan, Mira tampak begitu terpukul. Dia terus menangis sampai
tiba di rumahnya.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku mendesah panjang. “Kemarin Aoi bahkan tak masuk kelas
lagi setelah bicara dengan Mira. Aoi cuma mengambil tas saat istirahat pertama,
lalu kabur entah ke mana.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ada apa kira-kira ya?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kita akan segera tahu. Nanti, saat kita bertemu Aoi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi sedang membantu ayahnya mengedit foto sewaktu Kelly dan
Riku datang. Riku mengajak Aoi ke luar supaya mereka leluasa mengobrol. Aoi
terlihat salah tingkah. Dia tahu teman-temanya datang karena Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira diopname,” kata Kelly. “Apa yang terjadi, Aoi? Kamu
pasti tahu kenapa Mira tiba-tiba ambruk begitu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Sungguh aku tidak tahu,” sahut Aoi, tak berani menatap mata
Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu bohong. Kamu tahu semuanya!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Aoi mendesah. “Aku nggak
tahu, Kelly. Kamulah sahabat dekatnya. Seharusnya kamu tahu apa yang terjadi
dengannya.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi akhir-akhir ini kalian sangat dekat. Aku rasa Mira jatuh
cinta sama kamu. Apakah kamu menolak cintanya?” tanya Kelly tegas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu menolak cinta Mira?” Riku ikutan bertanya dengan nada
bingung. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira nggak ngomong apa-apa padaku. Jadi aku nggak tahu apa
masalahnya sekarang,” jawab Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu tahu! Kamu tahu, Aoi! Kenapa kamu bohong?” teriak Kelly
kehilangan kendali. Dia gemas melihat sikap Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ayah Aoi keluar karena suara ribut-ribut itu. “Ada apa ini?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oom!” seru Kelly. “Mira sakit. Sekarang dia di rumah sakit.
Saya yakin Aoi tahu apa yang terjadi pada Mira! Tapi dia nggak mau
mengatakannya!” Air mata Kelly mulai mengalir. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ayah Aoi mendesah. Dia menatap sedih putra semata wayangnya.
Sementara itu Aoi menunduk dalam-dalam. Hatinya pilu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Minggu depan Aoi ikut ibu kandungnya. Dia akan meneruskan
sekolah di luar negeri,” terang ayah Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly dan Riku terpana. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi bergegas masuk. Terdengar suara pintu dibanting dan dalam
rumah. Kelly dan Riku tak mengerti apa yang sedang terjadi. Sepertinya Aoi
marah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Mira kehilangan Aoi. Apakah
karena itu dia sakit?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Entahlah,” balas ayah Aoi sedih, kemudian berbalik dan masuk
ke rumah, meninggalkan Kelly dan Riku di teras. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku dan Kelly bengong. Mereka merasa ditolak sehingga
memutuskan pulang. Sepanjang jalan Kelly marah-marah. Menurut dia, sikap Aoi
dan ayahnya san gat tidak bersahabat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ada sesuatu yang terjadi pada Aoi dan Mira. Wajah Aoi sangat
sedih. Dan ketika ayahnya bilang Aoi akan pergi jauh, wajah Aoi bukan hanya
sedih, tapi bercampur kecewa. Dia marah dengan keadaan yang tak diinginkannya,
lalu membanting pintu kamar. Kurasa Aoi juga terluka seperti Mira,” Riku
menganalisis kejadian barusan dengan panjang lebar. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Menurutmu begitu?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya, aku teman balk Aoi. Dia berhati lembut dan penyayang. Dia
nggak mungkin menyakiti Mira kalau bukan keadaan yang memaksanya.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly mendesah sedih. “Mira begitu terluka. Tapi sebaiknya
kita rahasiakan dulu kepergian Aoi ke luar negeri sampal Mira sehat.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya. Sebaiknya dia nggak tahu Aoi akan pergi jauh. Kalau dia
tahu, sakitnya bisa semakin parah.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kita kembali ke rumah sakit sekarang?” tanya Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku mengangguk. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mereka segera mencari taksi.
Dalam perjalanan menuju rumah sakit kedua sahabat itu hanya membisu. Kisah Mira
dan Aoi memenuhi benak mereka dan membangkitkan rasa iba. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
AOI mengemasi beberapa barang ke dalam koper. Dia membuka buku
hariannya, lalu mengeluarkan pesan dari Mira yang dia temukan hari Minggu lalu.
Hatinya bagai tersayat ketika membuka kertas itu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Aoi, aku menunggumu sepanjang hari. HP-mu nggak bisa
kuhubungi. Aku bertekad menunggumu hingga kamu pulang, tapi aku menggigil
kedinginan. Aku lapar sekali. Aku nggak mau membuatmu repot, maka kuberanikan
diri pulang menerjang banjir. Aoi, kumohon, bila kamu telah membaca pesan ini,
hubungi aku, ya. Mira. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi kembali melipat kertas itu, kemudian menyelipkannya ke
dalam buku harian. Sejenak dia mendesah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Memang sakit sekali, Nak. Tapi Ayah yakin seiring berjalannya
waktu, kimu bisa melupakan Mira. Raihlah dulu masa depanmu. Mungkin kelak
kalian bisa bersatu,” kata ayahnya yang telah berdiri di ambang pintu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Dengan mata sembap Aoi menatap ayahnya. “Bolehkah Aoi
mengucapkan salam terakhir pada Mira, Yah? Aoi ingin menjenguk Mira. Dia sakit
karena Aoi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kalau kamu bertemu Mira dan melihat kesedihannya, kamu akan
terikat dengannya dan semakin sulit melupakannya. Tapi Itu pilihanmu. Ayah tak
akan melarangmu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Aoi mengangguk. “Aoi yakin
bisa mengatasinya. Besok Aoi menjenguk Mira.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
*** &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi bangun pagi-pagi sekali. Dia berencana masak. Hanya bubur,
tapi tentu bukan sembarang bubur. Aoi memasak bubur dengan penuh cinta. Setiap
membubuhkan bumbu, Aoi membarenginya dengan doa. Setiap mengaduk bubur yang
mengepul di panci, Aoi menyertainya dengan harapan. Aoi berharap Mira segera
sembuh, sehat, dan kembati ceria, walaupun Aoi mungkin takkan melihat wajah
ceria Mira selepas Mira sembuh. Karena Aoi harus segera berangkat... &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi mendesah sedih. Sungguh dia sangat sedih. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi memasukkan bubur ayam buatannya ke rantang kecil. Dia juga
menata nugget jamur yang dibuatnya semalarn di rantang satunya. Selesai sudah.
Dua rantang masakan sederhana namun spesial itu siap diantar untuk gadis yang
sedang sakit. Aoi berharap Mira senang melihatnya datang dan mau menyantap
masakan buatannya dengan lahap. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi gugup sekali saat melangkah di lorong rumah sakit.
Tangannya dingin, dan jantungnya bagai meloncat-loncat. Aoi sangat mencintai
Mira. Pada Mira-lah Aoi merasakan jatuh cinta pertama kali. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Langkah kaki Aoi terhenti di
depan pintu kamar tempat Mira dirawat. Pintu tidak tertutup rapat. Ada celah
sehingga dia bisa mengintip. Di kamar ada seseorang yang tengah membujuk Mira
makan. Aoi memastikan penglihatannya. Bukan, wanita itu bukan Mbak Nunuk.
Wajahnya cantik dan penampilannya berkelas. Mama Mira? Ya, itu pasti dia.
Wajahnya mirip Mira. Hanya saja, penampilannya begitu feminin dan rapi, beda
dengan Mira yang tomboi dan sporty. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Tiba-tiba kebencian menerjang dada Aoi. Dia teringat cerita
ayahnya tentang mama Mira. Waktu dia kembali ke rumah sehabis mengantar Mira
menunggu bus pada Sabtu lalu, ayah Aoi berbagi rahasia, sekaligus ultimatum.
Hal itulah yang membuat Aoi harus pergi meninggalkan Indonesia. Meninggalkan
Mira. Ya, Aoi harus melupakan pujaan hatinya hanya gara-gara wanita yang telah
melahirkan Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Karena peristiwa pahit pada masa lalu, ayah Aoi nekat
menghubungi ibu Aoi yang telah lama putus hubungan karena tinggal di luar
negeri bersama keluarga barunya. Ayah memutuskan untuk menyerahkan Aoi pada
ibunya. Padahal Aoi sudah lupa rupa ibunya. Dia tak bertemu ibunya sejak umur
dua tahun. Sampai remaja sekarang ini dia tak pernah lagi berhubungan dengan
ibunya. Kini, tiba-tiba saja Aoi harus tinggal bersama ibunya di tempat yang
jauh dan asing. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Aoi berbalik. Dia tidak ingin bertemu mama Mira. Perasaannya
sungguh tak keruan. Aoi rindu Mira, namun benci mama Mira. Apa boleh buat, Aoi
memilih pulang. Sebelum meninggalkan rumah sakit, Aoi meminta tolong perawat
untuk menyerahkan masakan istimewa yang dibawanya kepada Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Sementara itu mama Mira mulai
kehilangan kesabaran karena Mira tidak mau makan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira, terserah apa maumu! Tapi kalau kamu terus-terusan
begini, kamu bisa kurus kering dan menjadi gila!” kata mama Mira kesal sambil
meletakkan piring di meja. Wajah wanita itu merah penuh amarah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Tepat pada saat itu, seorang perawat datang membawa rantang.
“Bu, ini tadi ada titipan dari teman Mira untuk Mira.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh, terima kasih,” sahut mama Mira sambil menerima rantang
tersebut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengenali rantang khas itu sehingga menjadi bersemangat.
Dengan susah payah dia berusaha duduk. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Lehernya dipanjangkan untuk melongok isi rantang saat mamanya
mulai membukanya. “Bubur ayam, dan... masakan apa ini?” gumam Mama. Hati Mira
melonjak kegirangan. “Itu pasti nugget jamur. Sini, Ma, biar Mira makan!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama Mira meletakkan rantang itu di meja di sisi Mira. Karena
tidak ada mangkuk kosong, maka Mira tidak keberatan makan langsung dari rantang
itu. Dengan lahap dia mulai memakan bubur ayam. Mamanya sampai terheran-heran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira bahagia sekali. Sekarang dia tahu Aoi sayang padanya. Dia
tahu Aoi peduli padanya, sampai-sampai mau bersusah payah memasak dan
mengantarkan makanan untuk dirinya ke rumah sakit. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Tanpa Mira ketahul, Aoi
sedang mengintipnya diam-diam dan balik pintu. Aoi tidak jadi pulang. Dia
berbalik kembali ke depan kamar Mira. Kalau saja ada keberanian, ingin rasanya
Aoi menyerbu masuk dan menyuapi Mira. Tapi tidak. Kaki Aoi seolah lumpuh. Dia
hanya sanggup mengintip gadis yang dicintainya. Itu pun hanya sesaat, sekadar
memastikan Mira menyukai masakannya, kemudian dia pergi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira meletakkan rantang bubur yang sudah licin tandas.
Kemudian, dia mencomot satu nugget jamur. Hmm... enak! Mira menikmatinya sambil
membayangkan kesibukan Aoi saat membuatnya. Ah, saat-saat berdua di dapur
bersama Aoi sungguh indah dikenang. Mira ingin cepat sembuh dan memasak kembali
dl rumah Aoi. Mulut Mira seolah tak berhenti mengunyah. Habis nugget pertama,
diambilnya nugget kedua dan dimakanya dengan semangat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Siapa yang mengirim makanan itu?” tanya Mama heran. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aoi, Ma!” sahut Mira. Namun buru-buru ia menutup mulut.
Saking gembira dan enak makan, Mira sampai keceplosan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aoi? Pesaingmu itu?” tanya Mama heran dengan dahi berkerut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aoi... mmm... Aoi teman dekat Mira kok. Dia baik, Ma.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Dahi Mama kian berkerut. “Anak mana sih dia?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Maksud Mama, anak siapa dan berapa banyak kekayaannya,
bukan?” tanya Mira sinis. Entah mengapa, tiba-tiba timbul keberanian pada diri
Mira untuk mendebat mamanya. “Aoi bukan orang kaya, tapi dia punya daya juang.
Dia juga cerdas &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
dan kreatif. Ayahnya juru
kamera televisi. Hidup mereka sederhana dan hemat agar mereka dapat menabung
untuk berlibur ke daerah-daerah terpencil di Indonesia setiap tahun,” terang
Mira bangga. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm... pasti hidup mereka berantakan.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nggak, Ma. Mereka sangat bahagia,” sindir Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Huh!” dengus Mama. “Dulu Mama punya ternan seperti itu.
Sukanya berlibur ke daerah pedalaman dan memotret. Aneh. Hidup kok nggak
mikirin uang, tapi hanya memburu kepuasan dan kesenangan pribadi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira terkejut. “Mama pemah bergaul dengan orang macam itu?
Bukannya Mama berteman dengan kalangan atas saja?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama menghela napas panjang. Matanya menerawang. “Pemah.
Bahkan selama kuliah Mama pacaran dengan orang macam itu,” ujamya Iirih. “Tapi,
Mama pikir nggak ada gunanya buat Mama selain Mama jadi ikutan tampil saat dia
menggelar pameran foto.” Nada suara Mama berubah sinis. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oh, ya? Mama nggak pemah bercerita soal pacaran dengan
fotografer. Kok bisa sih? Bukannya selera Mama cowok kaya?” Mira
terheran-heran. Dia tidak tahu Mama punya masa lalu bersama pria selain
papanya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Itu kan masa lalu, Mir. Mama membukanya lagi hanya sekadar
pengingat agar kamu melupakan Aoi. Aoi... siapa nama lengkap Aoi?” Dahi Mama
lagi-lagi berkerut, seperti ada yang berkecamuk di otaknya. Ekspresi wajah Mama
sulit ditebak. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Aoi Lucios,” Mira menyebut
nama panjang Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama terpaku. Wajahnya memucat. Sesaat wanita keras hati itu
terlihat gugup. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira terpana. Dia mengamati raut wajah mamanya yang salah
tingkah dan gelisah.. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ma, Mama kenapa?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama menggeleng gugup. “Ah, nggak. Mama...” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mama kenal Aoi? Ma, kita baru saja menjalin hubungan yang
lebih baik antara ibu dan anak. Mira telah jujur tentang Aoi. Mira harap Mama
juga jujur pada Mira,” Mira berkata tegas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm...” Mama Mira terdiam, terlihat seperti menimbang-nimbang.
Namun akhimya dia menyerah. Dia memilih bercerita tentang masa lalunya pada
Mira. “Begini... ini sudah lama sekali kejadiannya. Teman yang Mama ceritakan
tadi namanya Oscar. Dia punya sanggar fotografi yang diberi nama &lt;i&gt;Aku Orang
Indonesia, &lt;/i&gt;yang biasa disingkat AOl. Ya, persis seperti nama temanmu. Dan
Mama rasa... Lucios adalah sebuah akronim.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Maksud Mama?” Mira mengernyit. “Oh... auw!” Mira memekik.
Otaknya bekerja cepat hingga menemukan akronim yang dimaksud. “Lucios. Lu untuk
Lulu dan Os untuk Oscar?” tebak Mira. Lulu adalah nama mama Mira. “Lalu, siapa
Ci?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama kembali gugup. “Tapi, jangan cerita sama Papa, ya?” bisik
Mama. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangguk. “Cl adalah cinta. Mama yang bikin akronim
itu. Lucios adalah panggilan sayang Mama untuk Oscar.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira pucat. “Jadi... Aoi
putra mantan pacar Mama? Mama gadis kaya raya yang mencampakkan Oom Oscar
setamat kuliah itu? Mama orang yang membuat Oom Oscar terpuruk bertahun-tahun
hingga dia membenci orang kaya?” Mira nyerocos membabi buta. Air matanya
berlinang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama menatap Mira dengan pandangan heran. “Maksudmu?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira heran ketika Oom Oscar tahu resep minuman jahe sereh
itu. Kini Mira mengerti mengapa Oom Oscar melamun saat menikmati minuman yang
Mira buat. Sekaligus Mira paham, mengapa Oom Oscar sering menatap Mira dengan
pandangan aneh. Karena Mira mengingatkan dirinya pada Mama!” seru Mira, nyaris
histeris. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mir? Mira... Katakan pada Mama, benarkah ayah Aoi adalah
Oscar?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menangis keras-keras. “Mira mengerti sekarang, mengapa
Aoi nggak rnau menemui Mira lagi. Pasti ayahnya sudah tahu lama mengenai Mira,
lalu melarang Aoi berhubungan dengan anak mantan pacarnya.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama Mira sesenggukan. Ia merasa bersalah sekali pada Mira.
Semua penderitaan Mira ternyata disebabkan perbuatannya, ibu kandungnya
sendiri. Mama Mira menangis sedih. Bagaimana mungkin masa lalunya kembali
muncul dan terkait dengan kisah cinta anaknya saat ini? &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira, tenanglah. Mungkin ada hal lain yang membuat Aoi tidak
bisa menemuimu,” hibur Mama. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira terus menangis. “Mama!
Oom Oscar nggak akan pernah menerima Mira lagi di rumahnya. Aoi mungkin nggak
akan mau bertemu Mira lagi. Mira bisa hancur karena dibenci orang-orang yang
Mira cintai!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Maafkan Mama, Mir.” Kata-kata Mama berhenti di situ. Dengan
penuh iba, dia memandangi anak semata wayangnya yang terus menangis. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tak peduli apa yang dikatakan mamanya. Dia menangis
karena kasihan pada dirinya sendiri, juga pada ayah Aoi dan Aoi. Pasti Aoi
terluka harus pura-pura membenci Mira. Ingin rasanya saat itu juga Mira berlari
ke rumah Aoi, tapi tubuhnya belum mampu melakukannya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Aoi... aku rindu kamu! &lt;/i&gt;jerit batin Mira dalam
tangisnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
PERAWATAN beberapa hari di rumah sakit memulihkan kesehatan
Mira. Matanya kembali berbinar dan pipinya memerah segar. Hari itu ia boleh
pulang. Kelly dan Riku ikut menjemput Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira memang bertekad cepat sembuh agar bisa segera menemui Aoi
dan ayahnya. Dia berjanji memasak makanan kesukaan ayah Aoi. Istirahat satu-dua
hari di rumah membuat gadis itu sehat sempurna sehingga bisa kembali ke
rutinitasnya, termasuk ke sekolah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira sangat bersemangat menjalankan idenya. “Riku, Kelly,
besok antar aku ke rumah Aoi, ya!” pinta Mira saat mereka sedang bersantai di
tepi kolam renang rumah Mira. Dua sahabat itu sengaja datang menjenguk Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Kelly dan Riku saling pandang.
Wajah mereka resah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mmm... tunggu tubuhmu benar-benar sehat dulu, Mir. Bukannya
aku nggak mau mengantarmu, tapi aku nggak mau disalahkan mamamu kalau kamu
sakit lagi,” Riku memberi alasan. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya, Mir. Kalau kamu sudah pulih seperti sediakala, aku akan
mengantarmu ke mana pun kamu mau,” imbuh Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tampak kecewa. Tapi dia bertekad tetap akan ke rumah Aoi
besok pagi. Mira tak peduli badannya masih lemah. Bahkan, larangan Mama
sekalipun akan dia terj ang. Toh besok mamanya sudah keluar kota lagi. Mira
bebas! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mir, sebenamya apa yang terjadi padamu hari Minggu itu, saat
kamu rnenghilang?” tanya Kelly takut-takut. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aku di rumah Aoi, terjebak hujan lebat. Aoi dan ayahnya nggak
ada, jadi aku menunggunya sampai sore. Kakiku terendam banjir, tubuhku basah
kuyup tersiram hujan. Aku pun harus menahan lapar karena nggak ada penjual
makanan lewat.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly menatap Mira tak percaya. “Jadi, saat hujan yang luar
biasa lebat itu, kamu sedang menunggu Aoi di teras rumahnya sampal malam?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mengangguk. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya ampun!” Kelly geleng-geleng tak percaya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku mendesah. Dia mencoba mengatasi perasaannya sendiri.
Andai waktu itu Riku yang ditunggu Mira, alangkah bahagia dirinya. Seketika Rik
merasa cemburu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Yah, perasaan khusus Riku
pada Mira belum berubah. Dia masih menyayangi Mira dan berharap gadis itu mau
menjadi pacarnya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Jadi kamu demam dan akhimya terserang tifus gara-gara
menunggu Aoi?” tanya Riku. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya,” Mira tersenyum kecut. “Tapi, setelah kejadian itu Aoi
malah bersikap ketus waktu di sekolah. Padahal sengaja kubela-belain berangkat
ke sekolah untuk menemuinya, meski aku demam dan pusing tak terkira.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku menelan ludah kecewa. “Kamu sangat mencintai Aoi, ya?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“lya,” jawab Mira mantap. “Aku mencintainya, dan baru kali ini
aku jatuh cinta,” lanjut Mira sambil tersenyum manis. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Riku dan Kelly saling pandang lagi. Mereka tampak bersedih
melihat Mira begitu bahagia. Sebentar lagi Mira pasti patah hati bila tahu Aoi
akan sekolah di luar negeri. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mamamu nggak melarangmu berhubungan dengan Aoi? Maksudku, Aoi
kan nggak setara denganmu,” kata Kelly. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nggak. Andal dilarang pun, aku akan nekat. Apa pun yang
terjadi, aku tetap mempertahankan hubunganku dengan Aoi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Kelly. dan Riku menatap nanar Mira. Terutama Riku. Bagai ada
peluru yang menembus dadanya. Riku dibakar cemburu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
* * * &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Semalaman Mira sulit tidur.
Benaknya dipenuhi khayalan tentang pertemuannya dengan Aoi esok hari. Ya, apa
pun yang terjadi, Mira tetap akan ke rumah Aoi. Mira berharap ayah Aoi akan
menerimanya. Mira sibuk merangkai kata-kata indah untuk mengambil hati ayah
Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Pintu kamar Mira diketuk seseorang. Pasti Mama mau pamitan
karena besok pagi-pagi harus ke luar kota. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Benar saja. Mama yang masuk. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Kamu belum tidur?” tanya Mama sambil memegang dahi Mira. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Belum,” sahut Mira tak bersahabat. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mama minta maaf, Mir.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira diam saja. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama mendesah sedih. “Kamu boleh menjalin hubungan dengan Aoi
bila mereka memaafkan Mama. Kamu boleh berteman dengan siapa pun, Mama tidak
akan menuntut apa pun padamu. Mama sadar selama ini Mama terlalu keras padamu.”
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Eh?” Mira tak percaya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mama menghela napas. “Mama menyesal selama ini tidak menjadi
mama yang baik bagimu. Mama hanya pergi sebentar, lusa Mama pulang.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tak menggubris perkataan mamanya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mama mengecup dahi Mira
sebelum meninggalkan kamar. Mira makin tak bisa tidur. Sebenarnya Mira senang
sekali mamanya telah berubah. Namun, Mira masih gelisah mernbayangkan sikap
ayah Aoi padanya. Apakah ayah Aoi bisa memafkan Mama kemudian merestui
hubungannya dengan Aoi? &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
* * * &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Esoknya Mira membakar ikan dan memasak masakan aneh yang
pernah ia buat bersama Aoi. Itu rnasakan kesukaan ayah Aoi, yang dimakan
pertama kali di Timor Leste waktu negeri itu masih menjadi bagian NKRI. Mbak
Nunuk sengaja mencarikan bahan-bahan tersebut di pasar tradisional. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Bahannya daun singkong dan jantung pisang. Keduanya direbus,
lalu diperas hingga airnya tak bersisa. Bumbunya, kalau Mira nggak salah ingat,
cabai, bawang merah, bawang putih, terasi, dan kemiri. Mira tak sepenuhnya
hafal, tapi semoga saja rasanya nanti enak. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira puas bisa memasak lauk tersebut. Saat mencicipinya, dia
makin senang karena pedasnya sesuai selera ayah Aoi. Untuk Aoi, Mira sengaja
minta Mbak Nunuk membuatkan puding pandan. Harum sekali. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Nanti saya antar ya, Non. Non masih lemah begitu.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Nggak usah, Mbak. Nanti Mira
diantar Pak Bardi kok. Jangan khawatir. Mobilnya bisa parkir di ujung gang.
Mira jalannya dekat saja.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Ya sudah. Tapi Pak Bardi disuruh menunggu ya, Non. Jadi
pulangnya sama-sama lagi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Iya, Mbak,” sahut Mira sambil menata masakan dan puding di
rantang Aoi, yang dulu dipakai untuk makanan Mira sewaktu di rumah sakit. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira berdandan rapi. Dia ingin tampil cantik, meski badannya
agak kurus dan matanya masih terlihat cekung. Sepanjang perjalanan Mira
tersenyum. Hatinya semarak membayangkan pertemuannya dengan Aoi. Mira sungguh
berharap Aoi akan senang bertemu dengannya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tunggu ya, Pak,” kata Mira saat dia turun di ujung gang. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Pak Bardi mengangguk. “Hati-hati, Non.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira tersenyum, kemudian berlalu pergi. Dia girang dan lega
saat melihat pintu rumah Aoi terbuka. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Permisi... ,“ kata Mira sambil melongok ke dalam. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Hei, Mira!” Ayah Aoi yang sedang membaca koran Iangsung
berdiri. Dia menyambut Mira dengan ramah. “Ayo masuk!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira duduk di ruang makan sambil meletakkan rantang. “Ini saya
yang masak, buat Oom dan Aoi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Wah Terima kasih ya. Apa ini?” tanya ayah Aoi sambil membuka
rantang. Matanya berbinar begitu melihat masakan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira. “Wah, terima kasih,
Mira! Sepertinya nikrnat nih!” seru ayah Aoi bersemangat. Dicoleknya sedikit
masakan Mira dengan jari, lalu dicicipinya. “Hm... enak sekali!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aoi mana, Oom?” kepala Mira melongok ke dapur. Ayah Aoi
menatap Mira sejenak, kemudian beranjak ke dapur. Ayah Aoi meminum segelas air
putih, lalu kembali ke hadapan Mira. Dia duduk dengan sikap kaku. Dipandangnya
Mira dengan jengah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira... mmm... begini...” Lelaki itu diam sejenak. Setelah
menghela napas panjang, dia mulai membuka suara. “Aoi meneruskan sekolah di
luar negeri. Dia ikut ibunya.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Apa, Oom?” Mira tidak yakin dengan pendengarannya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Aoi ke luar negeri. Sekolah.” Ayah Aoi berkata dengan nada
dingin. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Seolah ada petir menyambar kepala Mira, gadis itu terdiam dan
tubuhnya gemetar. Dia mencoba memproses kalimat yang baru saja didengarnya dan
dadanya terasa sesak karenanya. Ayah Aoi menatap Mira prihatin. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi... tapi... bukahkah Aoi berpisah dengan ibunya sejak dia
masih kecil? Oom bohong, kan?” tanya Mira di tengah isaknya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ayah Aoi rnenggeleng. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oom...” Mira kehabisan kata-kata. Dia ingin tak percaya, tapi
ayah Aoi tampak bersungguh-sungguh. “Tapi kenapa, Oom? Kenapa dia pergi?” tanya
Mira lagi setelah bisa menata emosinya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Dia akan meraih masa depan
yang lebih baik bila bersama ibunya. Oorn bukan ayah yang baik buat dia. Oom
terlalu sibuk dengan pekerjaan Oom.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Tapi, tapi... Aoi nggak pemah mengeluh. Aoi sayang Oom.
Bahkan, saya merasakan kehangatan sebuah keluarga saat berada di sini. Mengapa,
Oom? Mengapa Aoi pergi?” “Itu yang terbaik, Mira.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Air mata Mira semakin deras mengalir di pipinya. “Oom, semua
ini karena saya, kan? Oom nggak mau Aoi dicampakkan orang kaya? Oom nggak mau
putra Oom berhubungan dengan putri Lulu, perempuan yang telah menyakiti hati
Oom. Begitu, kan?” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Sejenak ayah Aoi terkejut. Dia tak rnenyangka Mira telah
rnengetahui masa Ialunya bersama rnarnanya. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira, tolong mengertilah. Bukan itu alasan Oom mengirim Aoi
pada ibunya. Oom hanya ingin Aoi bersekolah di tempat yang lebih baik. Oom
ingin Aoi jadi orang sukses, tidak seperti Oom.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira terisak. “Saya nggak bersalah, Oom. Saya nggak harus
menebus dosa-dosa Mama pada masa lalu. Saya bahkan ingin sekali menunjukkan
pada Oom bahwa saya sayang banget sama Aoi. Saya nggak akan pernah meninggalkan
Aoi seperti Mama dulu ninggalin Oom. Saya sayang sekali sama Aoi!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira, itu hanyalah emosi sesaat. Cinta monyet yang menggebu,
tapi kelak bila terbentur ganasnya hidup, cinta itu akan luntur. Kamu terlalu
muda untuk mengerti kehidupan, Mira.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
Mira tak bisa berkata apa-apa
lagi. Prasangkanya terbukti: Aoi tidak boleh menjalin hubungan dengannya karena
masa lalu ayah Aoi dengan mama Mira. Mira menunduk, mencoba menguasai diri.
Matanya tertumbuk pada puding pandan yang tidak keburu dilihat Aoi. Hati Mira
kembali tersayat. Dia menangis tersedu. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Mira, kamu bisa segera melupakan Aoi. Aoi bukan cowok yang
tepat buatmu, Mir. Kamu gadis yang baik dan pintar. Jadi, mulai sekarang
fokuslah belajar dan lupakan Aoi.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Terima kasih, Oom. Tapi rasanya melupakan seseorang butuh
waktu seumur hidup. Saya akan menyusul Aoi kelak, setelah lulus SMA. Saya akan
kuliah di Australia juga. Oom akan menariknya kembali ke Indonesia kalau saya
menyusul?” tantang Mira. Mata Mira melebar, menatap Ayah Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ayah Aoi hanya mendesah panjang. “Mira... kamu benar. Oom
memang tidak menyetujui hubungan kalian.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menatap lekat wajah ayah Aoi. “Kenapa Oom belum bisa
berdamai dengan masa lalu? Oom masih saja belum bisa menerima kenyataan.
Padahal Oom sudah punya Aoi dan wanita lain.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oom tidak mau menjadi besan ibumu. Oom tidak mau bertemu
ibumu. Oom sudah bersumpah bahwa Oom tidak akan pernah menjalin pertemanan,
apalagi persaudaraan, dengan ibumu,” balas ayah Aoi tegas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Oom egois!” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
“Kamu terlalu muda untuk
dapat memahami semuan ya, Mira. Ibumu bukan hanya mencampakkan Oom, tapi lebih
daripada itu, dia menginjak-injak harga diri Oom. Dia memupus harapan dan
cita-cita Oom. Dia menghancurkan hidup Oom.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Hening. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira mencoba memahami rasa sakit yang pernah dirasakan ayah
Aoi. Mungkin kejadian puluhan tahun silam itu begitu buruk dan membuat ayah Aoi
terpuruk. Mira menyeka air mata. “Oom, maafkan kesalahan mama saya. Tapi saya
nggak seperti Mama,” ucap Mira berat. Ayah Aoi menatap Mira prihatin, seolah
hatinya sendiri juga teriris sakit. “Oom yang minta maaf, karena Oom begitu
egois. Kemarin mamamu menghubungi Oom dan meminta maaf. Mamamu berharap Oom
mengizinkan kamu dan Aoi bersama-sama. Tapi, luka itu rnasih menganga, Mira.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Saya dan Aoi akan rnenyembuhkannya, Oom. Percayalah. Saya
sangat mencintai putra Oom. Semua ini sudah diatur alam semesta, supaya Oom
berdamai dengan masa lalu Oom dan juga Mama. &lt;i&gt;Please, &lt;/i&gt;izinkan kami tetap
bersama, Oom.” &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Ayah Mira menggeleng. Meski sebenarnya dia juga merasa
bersalah karena telah memisahkan cinta Mira dan Aoi, tapi baginya, lebih baik
menderita sekarang daripada sakit nanti, ketika cinta Aoi dan Mira telanjur
dalam. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
“Pulanglah, Mira, dan jangan pernah menginjakkan kaki di rumah
Oom lagi,” kata ayah Aoi tegas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira menghapus air mata, kemudian beranjak pergi. Dia tahu
ayah Aoi rnelakukan itu untuk menyakiti hatinya. Ayah Aoi &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot; style=&quot;page-break-before: always;&quot;&gt;
ingmn Mira mernbencinya.
Mungkin ayah Aoi menganggap, rasa benci bisa membantu Mira rnelupakan Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Tapi tidak! Mira tak rnau dikalahkan rasa benci! &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
* * * &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Berhari-hari Mira dirundung kesedihan dan rasa kecewa yang
mendalam atas keputusan ayah Aoi. Dia juga kesal pada Aoi yang sarna sekali
tidak meninggalkan pesan untuknya. Tapi pada hari ketujuh, Mira bangkit. Dia
bertekad untuk berprestasi setinggi mungkin hingga bisa kuliah di luar negeri
dan bertemu Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Harapan untuk bertemu Aoi itulah yang membuat Mira
bersemangat. Waktu pasti akan mempertemukan dan menyatukan cinta mereka. Mira
percaya itu. Mira akan rnenciptakan kehidupan menyenangkan, yang dulu pernah
diangankan ayah Aoi dan mama Mira, bersama Aoi. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira juga memiliki hubungan lebih baik dengan mamanya, yang
kini mengurangi kesibukan hingga bisa mendarnpingi putrinya. Ternyata selalu
hadir keindahan di balik peristiwa pahit. Andai saja Mira tidak mengalami semua
penderitaan akibat cintanya, dia tak akan mengerti betapa berartinya memiliki
cinta yang tulus. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Default&quot;&gt;
Mira optimistis takdir akan memperternukannya kernbali dengan
Aoi. Mira tak tahu mengapa bisa seyakin itu. Tapi keyakinan &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;itulah yang membuatnya mampu menjalani hari-harinya.
Dalam setiap desah napas, tak henti Mira merapal rnantra yang membuatnya tetap
bersemangat: &lt;i&gt;Aoi, I will come to love you.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;

usually known by many people. It states something that is common experience or
gives advice. Here are some examples.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;The best things in life are free.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;We don&#39;t have to pay for the things that are really valuable, like
love,&amp;nbsp; friendship and good health.&lt;br style=&quot;mso-special-character: line-break;&quot; /&gt;

saves nine.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;Repair something as soon as it is damaged. That&#39;s a small repair job. If
not, you will have a much bigger and more expensive repair job later.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br style=&quot;mso-special-character: line-break;&quot; /&gt;
&lt;br style=&quot;mso-special-character: line-break;&quot; /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Some rivers have rough surfaces with waves. That&#39;s usually because the
water&amp;nbsp; is shallow and there are rocks near the surface. But deep rivers
have no rocks&amp;nbsp;near the surface and the water is smooth and still.
&quot;Still waters run deep&quot;&amp;nbsp; means that people who are calm and
tranquil on the outside, often have a strong,&amp;nbsp; &lt;b&gt;&quot;deep&quot;
personality.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;mso-special-character: line-break;&quot; /&gt;

cooking delicious meals for him. They fed&amp;nbsp; his stomach and found love in
his heart.&lt;br style=&quot;mso-special-character: line-break;&quot; /&gt;

In addition to prototypes,
cognitive &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ello.uos.de/field.php/Semantics/Semantics&quot;&gt;semantics&lt;/a&gt;
assumes that the concepts expressed by language are interconnected. In many
cases one concept can be understood with the help of the other; this type of
interconnection is called &lt;strong&gt;metaphor&lt;/strong&gt;. In the linguistic sense,
metaphors are part of our conceptual system. The use of metaphors in everyday
language is so common that most of them are frequently not even noticed. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-indent: 14.2pt;&quot;&gt;
The similarity or analogy between two terms from
different cognitive domains is typically assumed to enable metaphors to
&quot;transport&quot; one or more properties of a (usually relatively concrete)
&lt;strong&gt;source domain&lt;/strong&gt; to a &lt;strong&gt;target domain&lt;/strong&gt;, which is
usually more abstract. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ello.uos.de/field.php/TheoryModelMethod/GeorgePLakoff&quot;&gt;George
P. Lakoff&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ello.uos.de/field.php/TheoryModelMethod/MarkJohnson&quot;&gt;Mark
Johnson&lt;/a&gt; (1980) distinguish four different types of metaphors: structural
metaphors, orientational metaphors, ontological metaphors, and metonymy. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-indent: 14.2pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Metonymy&lt;/strong&gt; is a figure of speech
in which a thing or concept is not called by its own name, but by the name of
something intimately associated with that thing or concept.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Examples:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
Here are some examples of metonymy: &lt;br /&gt;

     Pentagon. (For the Department of Defense and the offices of the U.S. Armed
     Forces.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

(For
     the written word.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: normal; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Sword -
     (For military force.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

     (For US Cinema.) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: normal; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Hand. (For
     help.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
Consider this quote which is a metonymic adage coined by English author
Edward Bulwer-Lytton in 1839 for his play &lt;em&gt;Richelieu; Or the Conspiracy&lt;/em&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;


&lt;em&gt;&quot;The pen is mightier than the sword.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;short&quot;&gt;
A &lt;i&gt;homonym&lt;/i&gt; is a word that is said or spelled the same way
as another word but has a different meaning. &quot;Write” and “right” is a good
example of a pair of &lt;i&gt;homonyms&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;

the Greek words &lt;i&gt;homos&lt;/i&gt;, meaning “same,” and &lt;i&gt;onuma&lt;/i&gt;, meaning “name.”
So a homonym is sort of like two people who have the same name: called the same
thing but different. A homonym can be a word that sounds the same as something
else — like &lt;i&gt;by&lt;/i&gt; (“near”) and &lt;i&gt;buy&lt;/i&gt; (“purchase”) — or it can be
spelled exactly the same way and pronounced differently — like &lt;i&gt;minute&lt;/i&gt;
(unit of time) and &lt;i&gt;minute&lt;/i&gt; (“tiny”).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-font-kerning: 18.0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

and have fun all at the same time! Resources include printable worksheets,
videos, online games, and various teaching strategies for Kindergarten through
High School. Here you can customize a unique lesson to illustrate homonyms vs
homophones vs homographs.&lt;br /&gt;


Homonyms, homophones and homographs can bring confusion to even adults and
teachers! VocabularySpellingCity can help anyone master these word groups. For
clarity, we&#39;ve brought them all together on one page. It makes it easier to
learn the difference among the three types of words using the definitions and
homonyms, homophones and homographs examples below.&lt;br /&gt;

that share the same spelling and the same pronunciation but have different
meanings. For example, bear.&lt;br /&gt;

are words that are pronounced identically although they have different meanings
and often have different spellings as well. These words are a very common
source of confusion when writing. Common examples of sets of homophones
include: to, too, and two; they&#39;re and their; bee and be; sun and son; which
and witch; and plain and plane. VocabularySpellingCity is a particularly useful
tool for learning to correctly use and spell the soundalike words.&lt;br /&gt;

Currently, VocabularySpellingCity cannot distinguish between homographs, as
we are unable to have two pronounciations for the exact same word. We are looking
for possibilities in the future.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Heteronyms
or Heterophones&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
Same Spelling, Different Pronunciations, Different Meanings. All heteronyms
are homographs, but not all homographs are heteronyms. See why this concept can
be so confusing to learn?&lt;br /&gt;

word or phrase. The word polysemy comes from the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_language&quot; title=&quot;Greek language&quot;&gt;Greek&lt;/a&gt;
words πολυ-, &lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;&quot;&gt;poly-&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, “many” and σήμα, &lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;&quot;&gt;sêma&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, “sign”.

Praising your favorite sports team is one thing, but if you
call the team the most incredible group of humans ever to walk the earth, then
you&#39;re going overboard and indulging in &lt;i&gt;hyperbole&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;
We use hyperbole &lt;span class=&quot;phonemic&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;/haɪˈpɜ:bəlɪ/&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt; to
exaggerate. We sometimes do this to emphasise something, to add humour or to
gain attention. When we use hyperbole, we often make statements which are
obviously untrue:&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;
&lt;i&gt;We drove for hours without stopping and I nearly &lt;b&gt;died of&lt;/b&gt;
hunger.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

[two students talking about a university town]&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;
&lt;i&gt;I have lived in Nottingham since I came here to study at the
university. Been here for about &lt;b&gt;a thousand&lt;/b&gt; years.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;
We often use hyperbole to stress a particular feature such as
amount, size, shape and movement:&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;
&lt;i&gt;I’ve got &lt;b&gt;tons&lt;/b&gt; of homework to do.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;i&gt;You have to wait for &lt;b&gt;hours&lt;/b&gt; in that bank.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

A &lt;i&gt;collocation&lt;/i&gt; is a familiar grouping of &lt;a data-component=&quot;link&quot; data-ordinal=&quot;1&quot; data-source=&quot;inlineLink&quot; data-type=&quot;internalLink&quot; href=&quot;http://grammar.about.com/od/tz/g/wordterm.htm&quot;&gt;words&lt;/a&gt;,
especially words that habitually appear together and thereby convey &lt;a data-component=&quot;link&quot; data-ordinal=&quot;2&quot; data-source=&quot;inlineLink&quot; data-type=&quot;internalLink&quot; href=&quot;http://grammar.about.com/od/mo/g/meaningterm.htm&quot;&gt;meaning&lt;/a&gt; by
association.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Collocational range&lt;/i&gt; refers to the set of items that typically
accompany a word. The size of a collocational range is partially determined by
a word&#39;s level of specificity and number of meanings.&lt;br /&gt;
There are different kinds of collocations in English. &lt;a data-component=&quot;link&quot; data-inlink=&quot;x1D9GTx_xk0LbuY8n6p7ew==&quot; data-ordinal=&quot;1&quot; data-source=&quot;inlineLink&quot; data-type=&quot;internalLink&quot; href=&quot;http://esl.about.com/od/printablequizzes/a/p_scollo.htm&quot;&gt;Strong
collocations&lt;/a&gt; are word pairings that are expected to come together. Good
collocation examples of this type of word pairing are combinations with &#39;make&#39;
and &#39;do&#39;. You make a cup of tea, but do your homework. Collocations are very
common in business settings when certain &lt;a data-component=&quot;link&quot; data-inlink=&quot;IB3f7QXegn9ptNMYZWveOw==&quot; data-ordinal=&quot;2&quot; data-source=&quot;inlineLink&quot; data-type=&quot;internalLink&quot; href=&quot;http://grammar.about.com/od/mo/g/nounterm.htm&quot;&gt;nouns&lt;/a&gt; are
routinely combined with certain verbs or adjectives. For example, draw up a
contract, set a price, conduct negotiations, etc.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;There are
several different types of collocation. Collocations can be adjective + adverb,
noun + noun, verb + noun and so on. Below you can see seven main types of
collocation in sample sentences.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

that makes a &lt;a href=&quot;http://literarydevices.net/comparison/&quot;&gt;comparison&lt;/a&gt;,
showing similarities between two different things. Unlike a &lt;a href=&quot;http://literarydevices.net/metaphor/&quot;&gt;metaphor&lt;/a&gt;, a simile draws
resemblance with the help of the words “like” or “as”. Therefore, it is a
direct comparison.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Metaphors and similes both call
attention to how two different things are similar, so people listening to you
can apply the qualities of one thing to the other. The difference between
metaphors and similes is that similes hit you over the head with the comparison
by using explicit words such as “like” or “as,” -- When Jon Bon Jovi sings “My
heart is like an open highway,” that&#39;s a simile because he used the word “like”
to directly make the comparison. Metaphors, on the other hand, don&#39;t use direct
comparison words. When Tom Cochrane sings “Life is a Highway,” that&#39;s a
metaphor because there&#39;s no word such as &quot;like&quot; or &quot;as.&quot; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .5in;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;Similes and Metaphors are both used
to make comparisons or elucidate concepts. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Metaphors&lt;/b&gt; simply state a comparison. &lt;b&gt;Similes&lt;/b&gt;
use the words “like” or “as” to compare things. Because they both make
comparisons, all similes are metaphors, but not all metaphors are similes. &lt;br /&gt;
Here are some examples of similes and metaphors:&lt;br /&gt;
Life is like a box of chocolates. (Simile)&lt;br /&gt;
My life is an open book. (Metaphor)&lt;br /&gt;
That baby is as cute as a button! (Simile)&lt;br /&gt;
Baby, you’re a firework. (Metaphor)&lt;br /&gt;
Both similes and metaphors add color and depth to language. Share your
favorite similes and metaphors in the comments!&lt;br /&gt;

Cleopatra VII ruled ancient Egypt as co-regent (first with her two 
younger brothers and then with her son) for almost three decades. She 
became the last in a dynasty of Macedonian rulers founded by Ptolemy, 
who served as general under Alexander the Great during his conquest of 
Egypt in 332 B.C. Well-educated and clever, Cleopatra could speak 
various languages and served as the dominant ruler in all three of her 
co-regencies. Her romantic liaisons and military alliances with the 
Roman leaders Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, as well as her supposed 
exotic beauty and powers of seduction, earned her an enduring place in 
history and popular myth&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2 class=&quot;section-head accordion-toggle collapsed&quot; data-toggle=&quot;collapse&quot; href=&quot;http://www.history.com/topics/ancient-history/cleopatra#section_1&quot;&gt;
Cleopatra: Early Life and Ascension to Throne     &lt;/h2&gt;
Since no contemporary accounts exist of Cleopatra’s life, it is 
difficult to piece together her biography with much certainty. Much of 
what is known about her life comes from the work of Greco-Roman 
scholars, particularly Plutarch. Born in 70 or 69 B.C., Cleopatra was a 
daughter of Ptolemy XII (Auletes). Her mother was believed to be 
Cleopatra V Tryphaena, the king’s wife (and possibly his half-sister). 
In 51 B.C., upon the apparently natural death of Auletes, the Egyptian 
throne passed to 18-year-old Cleopatra and her 10-year-old brother, 
Ptolemy XIII.&lt;br /&gt;
Soon
 after the siblings’ ascension to the throne, Ptolemy’s advisers acted 
against Cleopatra, who was forced to flee Egypt for Syria in 49 B.C. She
 raised an army of mercenaries and returned the following year to face 
her brother’s forces at Pelusium, on Egypt’s eastern border. Meanwhile, 
after allowing the Roman general Pompey to be murdered, Ptolemy XIII 
welcomed the arrival of Pompey’s rival, &lt;a data-id=&quot;144284&quot; data-type=&quot;topics&quot; href=&quot;http://www.history.com/topics/ancient-history/julius-caesar&quot;&gt;Julius Caesar&lt;/a&gt;,
 to Alexandria. In order to help her cause, Cleopatra sought Caesar’s 
support, reportedly smuggling herself into the royal palace to plead her
 case with him.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;accordion-group&quot;&gt;

Caesar and Cleopatra     &lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;section-group collapse&quot; id=&quot;section_2&quot;&gt;
For his part, Caesar needed to fund his own return to power in Rome, 
and needed Egypt to repay the debts incurred by Auletes. After four 
months of war between Caesar’s outnumbered forces and those of Ptolemy 
XIII, Roman reinforcements arrived; Ptolemy was forced to flee 
Alexandria, and was believed to have drowned in the Nile River. Entering
 Alexandria as an unpopular conqueror, Caesar restored the throne to the
 equally unpopular Cleopatra and her younger brother Ptolemy XIV (then 
13 years old). Caesar remained in Egypt with Cleopatra for a time, and 
around 47 B.C. she gave birth to a son, Ptolemy Caesar. He was believed 
to be Caesar’s child, and was known by the Egyptian people as Caesarion,
 or Little Caesar.&lt;br /&gt;

Sometime in 46-45 B.C., Cleopatra traveled with Ptolemy XIV and 
Caesarion to Rome to visit Caesar, who had returned earlier. After 
Caesar was murdered in March 44 B.C., Cleopatra went back to Egypt; 
Ptolemy XIV died soon after, and the three-year-old Caesarion was named 
co-regent with his mother, as Ptolemy XV. By this point, Cleopatra had 
strongly identified herself with the goddess Isis, the sister-wife of 
Osiris and mother of Horus. (This was consistent with the ancient 
Egyptian tradition of associating royalty with divinity in order to 
reinforce the position of kings and queens. Cleopatra III had also 
claimed to be associated with Isis, and Cleopatra VII was referred to as
 the “New Isis.”)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;accordion-group&quot;&gt;

Cleopatra’s Seduction of Mark Antony     &lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;section-group collapse&quot; id=&quot;section_3&quot;&gt;
With her infant son as co-regent, Cleopatra’s hold on power in Egypt 
was more secure than it had ever been. Still, unreliable flooding of the
 Nile resulted in failing crops, leading to inflation and hunger. 
Meanwhile, a conflict was raging in Rome between a second triumvirate of
 Caesar’s allies (&lt;a data-id=&quot;144175&quot; data-type=&quot;topics&quot; href=&quot;http://www.history.com/topics/ancient-history/mark-antony&quot;&gt;Mark Antony&lt;/a&gt;,
 Octavian and Lepidus) and his assassins, Brutus and Cassius. Both sides
 asked for Egyptian support, and after some stalling Cleopatra sent four
 Roman legions stationed in Egypt by Caesar to support the triumvirate. 
In 42 B.C., after defeating the forces of Brutus and Cassius in the 
battles of Philippi, Mark Antony and Octavian divided power in Rome.&lt;br /&gt;

Mark Antony soon summoned Cleopatra to the Cicilian city of Tarsus 
(south of modern Turkey) to explain the role she had played in the 
complicated aftermath of Caesar’s assassination. According to the story 
recorded by Plutarch (and later dramatized famously by &lt;a data-id=&quot;144609&quot; data-type=&quot;topics&quot; href=&quot;http://www.history.com/topics/british-history/william-shakespeare&quot;&gt;William Shakespeare&lt;/a&gt;),
 Cleopatra sailed to Tarsus in an elaborate ship, dressed in the robes 
of Isis. Antony, who associated himself with the Greek deity Dionysus, 
was seduced by her charms. He agreed to protect Egypt and Cleopatra’s 
crown, pledging support for the removal of her younger sister and rival 
Arsinoe, then in exile. Cleopatra returned to Egypt, followed shortly 
thereafter by Antony, who left behind his third wife, Fulvia, and their 
children in Rome. He spent the winter of 41-40 B.C. in Alexandria, 
during which he and Cleopatra famously formed a drinking society called 
“The Inimitable Livers.” In 40 B.C., after Antony’s return to Rome, 
Cleopatra gave birth to twins, Alexander Helios (sun) and Cleopatra 
Selene (moon).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;accordion-group&quot;&gt;

Cleopatra: Power Struggle     &lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;section-group collapse&quot; id=&quot;section_4&quot;&gt;
After Fulvia took ill and died, Antony was forced to prove his 
loyalty to Octavian by making a diplomatic marriage with Octavian’s 
half-sister Octavia. Egypt grew more prosperous under Cleopatra’s rule, 
and in 37 B.C. Antony again met with Cleopatra to obtain funds for his 
long-delayed military campaign against the kingdom of Parthia. In 
exchange, he agreed to return much of Egypt’s eastern empire, including 
Cyprus, Crete, Cyrenaica (Libya), Jericho and large portions of Syria 
and Lebanon. They again became lovers, and Cleopatra gave birth to 
another son, Ptolemy Philadelphos, in 36 B.C.&lt;br /&gt;

After a humiliating defeat in Parthia, Antony publicly rejected his 
wife Octavia’s efforts to rejoin him and instead returned to Egypt and 
Cleopatra. In a public celebration in 34 B.C. known as the “Donations of
 Alexandria,” Antony declared Caesarion as Caesar’s son and rightful 
heir (as opposed to his adopted son, Octavian) and awarded land to each 
of his children with Cleopatra. This began a war of propaganda between 
him and the furious Octavian, who claimed that Antony was entirely under
 Cleopatra’s control and would abandon Rome and found a new capital in 
Egypt. In late 32 B.C., the Roman Senate stripped Antony of all his 
titles, and Octavian declared war on Cleopatra.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;accordion-group&quot;&gt;

Cleopatra: Defeat and Death     &lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;section-group collapse&quot; id=&quot;section_5&quot;&gt;
On September 2, 31 B.C., Octavian’s forces soundly defeated those of 
Antony and Cleopatra in the Battle of Actium. Cleopatra’s ships deserted
 the battle and fled to Egypt, and Antony soon managed to break away and
 follow her with a few ships. With Alexandria under attack from 
Octavian’s forces, Antony heard a rumor that Cleopatra had committed 
suicide. He fell on his sword, and died just as news arrived that the 
rumor had been false.&lt;br /&gt;

On August 12, 30 B.C., after burying Antony and meeting with the 
victorious Octavian, Cleopatra closed herself in her chamber with two of
 her female servants. The means of her death is uncertain, but Plutarch 
and other writers advanced the theory that she used a poisonous snake 
known as the asp, a symbol of divine royalty. According to her wishes, 
Cleopatra’s body was buried with Antony’s, leaving Octavian (later 
Emperor &lt;a data-id=&quot;143727&quot; data-type=&quot;topics&quot; href=&quot;http://www.history.com/topics/ancient-history/emperor-augustus&quot;&gt;Augustus&lt;/a&gt; I) to celebrate his conquest of Egypt and his consolidation of power in Rome.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

Leonardo
 da Vinci was a leading artist and intellectual of the Italian 
Renaissance who&#39;s known for his enduring works &quot;The Last Supper&quot; and 
&quot;Mona Lisa.&quot;&lt;/div&gt;

&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Born
 on April 15, 1452, in Vinci, Italy, Leonardo da Vinci was the epitome 
of a “Renaissance man.” Possessor of a curious mind and keen intellect, 
da Vinci studied the laws of science and nature, which greatly informed 
his work as a painter, sculptor, architect, inventor, military engineer 
and draftsman. His ideas and body of work—which includes &quot;Virgin of the 
Rocks,&quot; &quot;The Last Supper&quot; and &quot;Mona Lisa&quot;—have influenced countless 
artists and made da Vinci a leading light of the Italian Renaissance.&lt;br /&gt;
Humble Beginnings&lt;/section&gt;&lt;section class=&quot;ng-scope ng-isolate-scope&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.blogger.com/null&quot; name=&quot;humble-beginnings&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Leonardo
 da Vinci was born on April 15, 1452, in a farmhouse nestled amid the 
undulating hills of Tuscany outside the village of Anchiano in 
present-day Italy. Born out of wedlock to respected Florentine notary 
Ser Piero and a young peasant woman named Caterina, he was raised by his
 father and his stepmothers. At the age of five, he moved to his 
father’s family estate in nearby Vinci, the Tuscan town from which the 
surname associated with Leonardo derives, and lived with his uncle and 
grandparents.&lt;br /&gt;
Young Leonardo received little formal education 
beyond basic reading, writing and mathematics instruction, but his 
artistic talents were evident from an early age. Around the age of 14, 
da Vinci began a lengthy apprenticeship with the noted artist Andrea del
 Verrocchio in Florence. He learned a wide breadth of technical skills 
including metalworking, leather arts, carpentry, drawing, painting and 
sculpting. His earliest known dated work—a pen-and-ink drawing of a 
landscape in the Arno valley—was sketched in 1473.&lt;br /&gt;
At the age of 
20, da Vinci qualified for membership as a master artist in Florence’s 
Guild of Saint Luke and established his own workshop. However, he 
continued to collaborate with his teacher for an additional five years. 
It is thought that Verrocchio completed his “Baptism of Christ” around 
1475 with the help of his student, who painted part of the background 
and the young angel holding the robe of Jesus. According to &lt;i&gt;Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors and Architects&lt;/i&gt;,
 written around 1550 by artist Giorgio Vasari, Verrocchio was so humbled
 by the superior talent of his pupil that he never picked up a 
paintbrush again. Most scholars, however, dismiss Vasari’s account as 
apocryphal.&lt;br /&gt;
Florentine court records show that in 1476 da Vinci 
and four other young men were charged with sodomy, a crime punishable by
 exile or even death. Although da Vinci was acquitted, his whereabouts 
went entirely undocumented for the following two years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;
“Renaissance Man” Emerges in Milan&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; After
 leaving Verrocchio’s studio, da Vinci received his first independent 
commission in 1478 for an altarpiece to reside in a chapel inside 
Florence’s Palazzo Vecchio. Three years later the Augustinian monks of 
Florence’s San Donato a Scopeto tasked him to paint “Adoration of the 
Magi.” The young artist, however, would leave the city and abandon both 
commissions without ever completing them.&lt;br /&gt;
In 1482, Florentine 
ruler Lorenzo de&#39; Medici commissioned da Vinci to create a silver lyre 
and bring it as a peace gesture to Ludovico Sforza, who ruled Milan as 
its regent. After doing so, da Vinci lobbied Ludovico for a job and sent
 the future Duke of Milan a letter that barely mentioned his 
considerable talents as an artist and instead touted his more marketable
 skills as a military engineer. Using his inventive mind, da Vinci 
sketched war machines such as a war chariot with scythe blades mounted 
on the sides, an armored tank propelled by two men cranking a shaft and 
even an enormous crossbow that required a small army of men to operate. 
The letter worked, and Ludovico brought da Vinci to Milan for a tenure 
that would last 17 years.&lt;br /&gt;
His ability to be employed by the 
Sforza clan as an architecture and military engineering advisor as well 
as a painter and sculptor spoke to da Vinci’s keen intellect and 
curiosity about a wide variety of subjects. Like many leaders of 
Renaissance humanism, da Vinci did not see a divide between science and 
art. He viewed the two as intertwined disciplines rather than separate 
ones. He believed studying science made him a better artist.&lt;br /&gt;
Leonardo
 thought sight was humankind’s most important sense and eyes the most 
important organ. He stressed the importance of saper vedere, “knowing 
how to see.” He believed in the accumulation of direct knowledge and 
facts through observation.&lt;br /&gt;
“A good painter has two chief objects 
to paint—man and the intention of his soul,” da Vinci wrote. “The former
 is easy, the latter hard, for it must be expressed by gestures and the 
movement of the limbs.” To more accurately depict those gestures and 
movements, da Vinci began to seriously study anatomy and dissect human 
and animal bodies during the 1480s. His drawings of a fetus in utero, 
the heart and vascular system, sex organs and other bone and muscular 
structures are some of the first on human record.&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to 
his anatomical investigations, da Vinci studied botany, geology, 
zoology, hydraulics, aeronautics and physics. He sketched his 
observations on loose sheets of papers and pads that he tucked inside 
his belt. He placed the papers in notebooks and arranged them around 
four broad themes—painting, architecture, mechanics and human anatomy. 
He filled dozens of notebooks with finely drawn illustrations and 
scientific observations. His ideas were mainly theoretical explanations,
 laid out in exacting detail, but they were rarely experimental.&lt;br /&gt;
Art
 and science intersected perfectly in his sketch of “Vitruvian Man,” 
which depicted a male figure in two superimposed positions with his arms
 and legs apart inside both a square and a circle. A man ahead of his 
time, da Vinci appeared to prophesize the future with his sketches of 
machines resembling a bicycle, helicopter and a flying machine based on 
the physiology of a bat.&lt;/section&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&#39;The Last Supper&#39; and Other Works&lt;/h2&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Leonardo
 was commissioned to work on numerous projects during his time in Milan.
 His painting of the “Virgin of the Rocks,” begun in 1483, demonstrated 
his pioneering use of chiaroscuro—a stark contrast between darkness and 
light that gave a three-dimensionality to his figures—and sfumato—a 
technique in which subtle gradations, rather than strict borders, infuse
 paintings with a softer, smoky aura.&lt;br /&gt;
Around 1495, Ludovico 
commissioned da Vinci to paint “The Last Supper” on the back wall of the
 dining hall inside the monastery of Milan’s Santa Maria delle Grazie. 
The masterpiece, which took approximately three years to complete, 
captures the drama of the moment when Jesus informs the Twelve Apostles 
gathered for Passover dinner that one of them would soon betray him. The
 range of facial expressions and the body language of the figures around
 the table bring the masterful composition to life. The decision by da 
Vinci to paint with tempera and oil on dried plaster instead of painting
 a fresco on fresh plaster led to the quick deterioration and flaking of
 “The Last Supper.” Although an improper restoration caused further 
damage to the mural, it has now been stabilized using modern 
conservation techniques.&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to having da Vinci assist him
 with pageants and designing a dome for Milan’s cathedral, the Duke of 
Milan tasked the artist with sculpting a 16-foot-tall bronze equestrian 
statue of his father and founder of the family dynasty, Francesco 
Sforza. With the help of apprentices and students in his workshop, da 
Vinci worked on the project on and off for more than a dozen years. 
Leonardo sculpted a life-size clay model of the statue, but the project 
was put on hold when war with France required bronze to be used for 
casting cannons, not sculptures. After French forces overran Milan in 
1499—and shot the clay model to pieces—da Vinci fled the city along with
 the duke and the Sforza family.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;
Return to Florence and “Mona Lisa”&lt;/h2&gt;
After
 brief stays in Mantua and Venice, da Vinci returned to Florence. In 
1502 and 1503, he briefly worked as a military engineer for Cesare 
Borgia, the illegitimate son of Pope Alexander VI and commander of the 
papal army. He traveled outside of Florence to survey military 
construction projects and sketch city plans and topographical maps. He 
designed plans, possibly with noted diplomat Niccolò Machiavelli, to 
divert the Arno River away from rival Pisa in order to deny its wartime 
enemy access to the sea.&lt;br /&gt;
Upon his return to Florence in 1503, da 
Vinci started work on the “Battle of Anghiari,” a mural commissioned for
 the council hall in the Palazzo Vecchio that was to be twice as large 
as “The Last Supper.” However, he abandoned the project after two years 
when the mural began to deteriorate before he had a chance to finish it.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; At
 the same time he began the “Battle of Anghiari,” da Vinci started 
working in 1503 on what would become his most well known painting—and 
arguably the most famous painting in the world—the “Mona Lisa.” The 
privately commissioned work is characterized by the enigmatic smile of 
the woman in the half-portrait, which derives from da Vinci’s sfumato 
technique.&lt;br /&gt;
Adding to the allure of the “Mona Lisa” is the mystery 
surrounding the identity of the subject. Princess Isabella of Naples, an
 unnamed courtesan and da Vinci’s own mother have been put forth as 
potential sitters for the masterpiece. It has even been speculated that 
the subject wasn’t a female at all but da Vinci’s longtime apprentice 
Salai dressed in women’s clothing. Based on accounts from an early 
biographer, however, the &quot;Mona Lisa&quot; is a picture of Lisa del Giocondo, 
the wife of a wealthy Florentine silk merchant. The painting’s original 
Italian name—“La Gioconda”—supports the theory, but it’s far from 
certain. Some art historians believe the merchant commissioned the 
portrait to celebrate the pending birth of the couple’s next child, 
which means the subject could have been pregnant at the time of the 
painting.&lt;br /&gt;
If the Giocondo family did indeed commission the 
painting, they never received it. For da Vinci, the &quot;Mona Lisa&quot; was 
forever a work in progress, as it was his attempt at perfection. 
Leonardo never parted with the painting. Today, the &quot;Mona Lisa&quot; hangs in
 the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, secured behind bulletproof glass 
and regarded as a priceless national treasure seen by millions of 
visitors each year.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;
Final Years&lt;/h2&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Leonardo returned to Milan in 1506 to work 
for the very French rulers who had overtaken the city seven years 
earlier and forced him to flee. Among the students who joined his studio
 was young Milanese aristocrat Francesco Melzi, who would become da 
Vinci’s closest companion for the rest of his life. He did little 
painting during his second stint in Milan, however, and most of his time
 was instead dedicated to scientific studies.&lt;br /&gt;
Ironically, Gian 
Giacomo Trivulzio, who had led the French forces who conquered Ludovico 
in 1499, followed in his foe’s footsteps and commissioned da Vinci to 
sculpt a grand equestrian statue, one that could be mounted on his tomb.
 After years of work and numerous sketches by da Vinci, Trivulzio 
decided to scale back the size of the statue, which was ultimately never
 finished.&lt;br /&gt;
Amid political strife and the temporary expulsion of 
the French from Milan, da Vinci left the city and moved to Rome in 1513 
along with Salai, Melzi and two studio assistants. Giuliano de’ Medici, 
brother of newly installed Pope Leo X and son of his former patron, gave
 da Vinci a monthly stipend along with a suite of rooms at his residence
 inside the Vatican. His new patron, however, also gave da Vinci little 
work. Lacking large commissions, he devoted most of his time in Rome to 
mathematical studies and scientific exploration.&lt;br /&gt;
After being 
present at a 1515 meeting between France’s King Francis I and Pope Leo X
 in Bologna, the new French monarch offered da Vinci the title “Premier 
Painter and Engineer and Architect to the King.” Along with Melzi, the 
Tuscan native departed for France, never to return. He lived in the 
Chateau de Cloux (now Clos Luce) near the king’s summer palace along the
 Loire River in Amboise. As in Rome, da Vinci did little painting during
 his time in France. One of his last commissioned works was a mechanical
 lion that could walk and open its chest to reveal a bouquet of lilies. 
He continued work on his scientific studies until his death at the age 
of 67 on May 2, 1519. Da Vinci&#39;s assistant, Melzi, became the principal 
heir and executor of his estate. The “Mona Lisa” was bequeathed to 
Salai.&lt;br /&gt;
Although da Vinci is known for his artistic abilities, 
fewer than two-dozen paintings attributed to him exist. One reason is 
that his interests were so varied that he wasn’t a prolific painter. For
 centuries afterward, however, thousands of pages from his private 
journals with notes, drawings, observations and scientific theories have
 surfaced and provided a fuller measure of a true “Renaissance man.”&lt;/section&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;A
word, phrase, or sentence is ambiguous if it has more than one
meaning.Ambiguity can have both&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;lexical
and a structural basis, as with sentences like &#39;I left her behind for you&#39; and
&#39;He saw her duck&#39;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Ambiguous
words or statements lead to vagueness and confusion, and shape the basis for
instances of unintentional &lt;a href=&quot;http://literarydevices.net/humor/&quot;&gt;humor&lt;/a&gt;.
For instance, it is ambiguous to say “I rode a black horse in red pajamas,”
because it may lead us to think the horse was wearing red pajamas. The sentence
becomes clear when it is restructured “Wearing red pajamas, I rode a black
horse.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Similarly, same words with different meanings can
cause ambiguity e.g. “John took off his trousers by the bank.” It is funny if
we confuse one meaning of “bank” which is a building, to another meaning, being
“an edge of a river”. Context usually resolves any ambiguity in such cases.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: -.25in;&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;1.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 7.0pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Types of ambiguity&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;There
are two types of ambiguity, &lt;u&gt;lexical&lt;/u&gt; and &lt;u&gt;structural&lt;/u&gt;. Lexical
ambiguity is by far the more common. Everyday examples include nouns like
&#39;chip&#39;, &#39;pen&#39; and &#39;suit&#39;, verbs like &#39;call&#39;, &#39;draw&#39; and &#39;run&#39;, and adjectives
like &#39;deep&#39;, &#39;dry&#39; and &#39;hard&#39;. There are various tests for ambiguity. One test
is having two unrelated antonyms, as with &#39;hard&#39;, which has both &#39;soft&#39; and
&#39;easy&#39; as opposites. Another is the conjunction reduction test. Consider the
sentence, &#39;The tailor pressed one suit in his shop and one in the municipal
court&#39;. Evidence that the word &#39;suit&#39; (not to mention &#39;press&#39;) is ambiguous is
provided by the anomaly of the &#39;crossed interpretation&#39; of the sentence, on
which &#39;suit&#39; is used to refer to an article of clothing and &#39;one&#39; to a legal
action.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: -.25in;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;2.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 7.0pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Ambiguity contrasted&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;It
is a platitude that what your words convey &#39;depends on what you mean&#39;. This
suggests that one can mean different things by what one says, but it says
nothing about the variety of ways in which this is possible. Semantic ambiguity
is one such way, but there are others: homonymy (mentioned above), vagueness,
relativity, indexicality, nonliterality, indirection and inexplicitness. All
these other phenomena illustrate something distinct from multiplicity of
linguistic meaning.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: -.25in;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;3.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 7.0pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Philosophical relevance&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Philosophical
distinctions can be obscured by unnoticed ambiguities. So it is important to
identify terms that do doubtle duty. For example, there is a kind of ambiguity,
often described as the &#39;act/object&#39; or the &#39;process/product&#39; ambiguity,
exhibited by everyday terms like &#39;building&#39;, &#39;shot&#39; and &#39;writing&#39;. Confusions
in philosophy of language and mind can result from overlooking this ambiguity
in terms like &#39;inference&#39;, &#39;statement&#39; and &#39;thought&#39;. Another common
philosophical ambiguity is the type/token distinction. Everyday terms like
&#39;animal&#39;, &#39;book&#39; and &#39;car&#39; apply both to types and to instances (tokens) of
those types. The same is true of linguistic terms like &#39;sentence&#39;, &#39;word&#39; and
&#39;letter&#39; and to philosophically important terms like &#39;concept&#39;, &#39;event&#39; and
&#39;mental state&#39; (see TYPE/TOKEN DISTINCTION).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Function of Ambiguity&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Ambiguity in literature serves the purpose of
lending a deeper meaning to a literary work. By introducing ambiguity in their
works, writers give liberty to the readers to use their imagination to explore
meanings. This active participation of the readers involves them in the &lt;a href=&quot;http://literarydevices.net/prose/&quot;&gt;prose&lt;/a&gt; or poetry they read.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Ambiguity
is A word, phrase, or sentence is ambiguous if it has more than one
meaning.Ambiguity can have both a lexical and a structural basis, as with
sentences like &#39;I left her behind for you&#39; and &#39;He saw her duck&#39;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;One of the best parts about writing is the fact that
you get to pick your words. And we have so many words to choose from! Literally
tens of thousands of beautiful words flitting through space, just waiting for
you to pinpoint exactly which one to use to describe your protagonist, setting,
or climactic scene.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;However, despite the fact that you have seemingly
unlimited options when it comes to word choice, the meaning that you’re trying
to express may narrow your selection significantly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Denotation&lt;/b&gt; is the strict, “dictionary” definition of a word. &lt;b&gt;Connotation&lt;/b&gt;
refers to the emotions and associations that attach to words, and expand beyond
their proper definitions. Poor word choice or misrecognition of wording can
dramatically alter imagery, tone, mood, or message of a piece. Revisiting the
differences between the denotations of words and their connotations help
students master their writing and reading.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;ul type=&quot;disc&quot;&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: normal; mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list .5in;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Denotation &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;refers
     to the literal meaning of a word, the &quot;dictionary definition.&quot;¨
     For example, if you look up the word &lt;i&gt;snake&lt;/i&gt; in a dictionary, you
     will discover that one of its &lt;b&gt;denotative&lt;/b&gt; meanings is &quot;any of
     numerous scaly, legless, sometimes venomous reptiles¡Khaving a long,
     tapering, cylindrical body and found in most tropical and temperate
     regions.&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: normal; mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list .5in;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Connotation&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;,
     on the other hand, refers to the associations that are connected to a
     certain word or the emotional suggestions related to that word. The &lt;b&gt;connotative
     &lt;/b&gt;meanings of a word exist &lt;u&gt;together with&lt;/u&gt; the denotative meanings.
     The connotations for the word &lt;i&gt;snake&lt;/i&gt; could include evil or danger.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;&quot;&gt;

&lt;i&gt;implication&lt;/i&gt; is something that is suggested, or happens, indirectly. When
you left the gate open and the dog escaped, you were guilty by &lt;i&gt;implication&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;&quot;&gt;

different senses: Usually used in the plural, &lt;i&gt;implications&lt;/i&gt; are effects
or consequences that may happen in the future&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Euphemism is &lt;b&gt;the expression of the word more than soft as change the expression felt crude.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;For Example :&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&quot; Where is the place for pee? &quot; can change with &quot;Where is the restroom?&quot; . The word of &quot; place for&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;pee&quot; is not suitable for polite communiction . The Word of &quot; Restroom&quot; can changing. The word of&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&quot; Restroom&quot; , this conotation more &amp;nbsp;soft/sensitive than the place of pee/toilet. So in Euphemism&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;can changing for the feel of value on communication from not polite to polite.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;7 Type for Euphemism :&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: none rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;1.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;Abstraction&lt;/strong&gt;: Some euphemisms serve to distance people from unpleasant or embarrassing truths, as when we say that a dead person passed away or a celebrity who has canceled an appearance is suffering from exhaustion.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: none rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;2.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;Indirection&lt;/strong&gt;: A euphemism may replace an explicit description of an action, as when people speak of going to the bathroom or of others sleeping together.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: none rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;3.&lt;strong style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;Litotes&lt;/strong&gt;: Sometimes, euphemism occurs in the form of this rhetorical device in which the gravity or force of an idea is softened or minimized by a double negative, as in the reference to someone as being not unattractive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: none rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;4.&lt;strong style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;Mispronunciation&lt;/strong&gt;: Alteration of pronunciation is a form of euphemism, as when we say&amp;nbsp;&lt;em style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;frigging&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;or&lt;em style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;shoot&lt;/em&gt;, or&amp;nbsp;&lt;em style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;jeez&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;or&amp;nbsp;&lt;em style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;cripes&lt;/em&gt;, so as not to offend people by using profanity (figurative or literal). These types of euphemisms, involving rhyme, alliteration, or shortening, are also called minced oaths.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: none rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;5.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;Modification&lt;/strong&gt;: A bluntly offensive noun can be transformed into a euphemism by converting it to an adjective, as in saying someone has socialist leanings rather than labeling them a socialist outright.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: none rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;6.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;Personification&lt;/strong&gt;: One form of euphemism is when things that some people prefer not to mention candidly, such as genitals, are assigned personal names. (I will go beyond euphemism and let readers think of examples on their own.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;background: none rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;7.&lt;strong style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;Slang&lt;/strong&gt;: Much of slang, derived to produce a vocabulary exclusive to a social group, is euphemism, as in the use of&amp;nbsp;&lt;em style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;joint&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;for&amp;nbsp;&lt;em style=&quot;background: none; border: 0px; margin: 0px; max-height: 500000px; padding: 0px;&quot;&gt;marijuana&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;(itself a slang term, derived from the Spanish names Mary and Juana — closely related to “Mary Jane,” yet another euphemism).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
