I’m
supposed to edit 2 articles, pack for ‘live in’ program that I will attend for
a week from tomorrow, and do my internship’s tasks. Instead, I’m writing this
damn article.
You can
call it a way of proscatinating; I call this my way to survive from Life, who
is now trying to fuck me.
Let me get
to my point.
Yesterday,
I went to my friend’s house to celebrate the first day of 2017 together. At his
house, there are him, his mom, his dad, his lil bro, and 2 cousins.
What amazed
me was how warm it was to be in his house. I’m not living there and the warmness
strucked me hard. There was this one scene that I remembered exactly in my mind.
For the
sake of this story, let’s call his mom Shizuka and his dad Pikachu. (hence the photo)
Shizuka was
cooking something in the kitchen when Pikachu came in to watch his wife cooked.
Then Shizuka
joked, “Wah, mau pesen apa nih, Pak?”
What
surprised me, is that Pikachu laughed hard because of the joke. And I swear,
with the name of deities or watever it actually is, that I saw Pikachu looked
LOVINGLY at Sizhuka.
Do you know
the look that Prince Charming give to Cinderella while dancing? Or in the
Sinetron while the main male lead watch the girl from afar?
I literally
saw ‘that look’ LIVE.
And then I asked
my friend and I found out that Pikachu and Shizuka have been married for over 20
years.
Here is the
thing, I have a friend that has been together with me for 9 years. And if she
joked to me while cooking, “Wah, mau pesen apa nih, Jenn?”
I will definitely
give her a poker face and sarcastic reply. Such as, “Seriously? Do I even need
to laugh at that?”
And that’s
my 9 years of friendship. And this is 20 years of marriage!
This is
only an example, whilst I saw a lot of other warm scenes in front of my eyes. I
even asked my friend to just adopt me into his family………………. Not that my family
is bad or such, but just the warmness overwhelmed me way too much than it
should.
I used to
think that life is all just about working hard, getting a nice job (that I
like), and getting lots and lots and lots of money. Then everything will be
fine. Relationship problems come later and it’s not even that important.
But after
yesterday, it literally changed my mindset. I do want a warm and nice family in
the future. To think about it, I want that warmness even more than I’ve ever
wanted a stable yet nice job.
To find my
significant other who will laugh at my stupid jokes. To receive ‘that look’ from
a special someone. And to make a warm yet nice family together. I want them
all. I know that it’s hard to find him, I know. But it’s not impossible, and I’m
holding onto that.
So am I
family-oriented or work-oriented? I don’t know. Maybe I’ll know in the near
future, or even I will never get to figure it out.
What I know,
is just family is also important. Family matters. And that you guys should also
figure that out before it’s too late:)
JElim.
