Yesterday's dinner

Yesterday I had dinner. :) With a friend. A male friend.

The day before yesterday, he offered me to rode with him until BEC, which then I could continue my journey home using public transport. We already been a gossip topic in the office since we both single and available. But, we remain friends until now.

When he dropped me off in front of BEC, I noticed that Yoshinoya (a Japanese restaurant) recently open in that mall. I text-ed him later in the night:

Me (M): Ah, I forgot that Yoshinoya recently open their branch here. Some said that it tastes better than Hoka-Hoka Bento. Let's go there sometimes and try it out.

Him (H): Tomorrow I'll go to BEC again.

M: Really? Why? Didn't you find what you're looking for today?

H: Yes, but I forgot someone's order.

P: OK then, so tomorrow?

H: Yes, tomorrow.

Thus, yesterday, we had dinner there. Early dinner since we ate at around 5.30 pm. The thing that I respect from him is that I told him I don't know where Yoshinoya's located in that mall and we ended up circling around looking for it, but he didn't blame me for not knowing. You know, there's someone that eventhough you already told them that you don't know the location, they ended up blaming you when you circle around a place and got lost. He's just being nice and patient, and willingly circling around the mall to look for that damn Yoshinoya with me.

We had nice conversation as always, the topic is quite random: office life, us being the gossip topic, gemstones, ghosts, etc. I had a nice evening while outside the rain was pouring hard.

He told me that earlier in the morning, his colleagues were congratulating him that now we're a couple.

H: This morning everyone was excited and congratulated me, they said we're now officially a couple.

M: Whaaaaatt???

H: Yeah, apparently some of them saw us yesterday when we rode together.

M: Hahahahaha, oh my... No one's said anything to me.

H: Of course, they're all going at me. *pout*

M: Hahahahahaha.. 

H: Let's hope that we don't meet someone from the office now. The gossip will get worse.

M: Sure.

And so we had our dinner, had our conversations. Until 7 pm, we go our separate ways. I went home on my own. He paid for dinner, while I was prepared to pay for myself. But he insisted to pay. :) Please note that we're still just friends. A good friend, if I must say.

Kamu yang Entah Dimana

Mendadak merasa lelah  Seakan tubuh ini pecah  Pikiran pastinya gundah  Penat di hati membuncah  Ingin ada seseorang di sebelah  Yang ada saat aku payah  Sabar ketika aku marah  Sayangi aku tak terbelah  Hai kamu yang entah dimana  Kapan ya kamu ada?  Kapan ya kita berjumpa?  Aku inginnya segera  Hai kamu yang entah dimana  Apa kamu belum lelah berkelana?  Apa kamu belum ingin melabuhkan jiwa?  Denganku berbagi suka duka  Hai kamu yang entah dimana  Aku sudah lelah sendiri saja  Ingin bersama kamu secepatnya  Saling menyayangi seutuhnya  Hai kamu yang entah dimana  Bersua denganku yuk, segera?  Lalu kita berkelana bersama  Kesini dan kesana berdua 

DAG DIG DUG!

Kulangkahkan kaki menuju pantry . Kutenangkan diriku, kuhirup nafas panjang. Tarik nafas, buang nafas, tarik nafas, buang nafas… Kubuat secangkir teh panas. Kental. Pahit. Lalu kubawa cangkir itu ke meja kerjaku. Kulirik jam dinding, masih jam 7.30 pagi. Dia belum datang. DAG DIG DUG! Aku berusaha menenangkan diriku. Mataku tak lepas memandang pintu, sambil kuhirup tehku perlahan-lahan. Rasa pahitnya menyerang indra perasaku, sepahit apa yang kurasakan saat ini. Kenapa dia belum datang? Jam sudah menunjukkan pukul 7.45. Jam 7.55, dia masih belum datang. Ah, apa dia sakit? Kalau dia tidak datang, terpaksa aku menunda omongan ini sampai besok. Padahal aku sudah tidak sanggup lagi memendamnya. Sudah beberapa hari ini aku berperang dengan batinku sendiri, kapankah waktu yang tepat untuk membicarakan hal ini. Sudah beberapa hari ini aku tidak bisa tidur nyenyak, khawatir akan tanggapannya tentang ini. DAG DIG DUG! Dia datang! Tepat pukul 8.00. Seperti biasa dia menyebarkan senyuman mau...

I beg you, please...

The more I tell myself not to fall for you, the more I fell.. Your little gestures make my heart melts over and over again. You come to help when I ask, without hesitate, with no fuss. You're willing to bring something I want, no questions asked, not feeling burdened. You are kind to me. Too kind. It makes me question if there is any love hidden beneath your actions. If you don't love me, please don't be that kind. Please... I beg you, please don't be too kind to me... I'm not sure I can handle any more heartache. Please... I beg you, please don't be too kind to me. For I might want you more than I would, need you more than I could, and love you more than I should. Please... I beg you, please.......
