《Perempuan Pelupa》Bagian 17: Lamunan
Advertisement
Lagi-lagi ada seseorang yang menepuk pundakku. Aku segera bangun dan kembali tak melihat siapapun. Kulihat bu Sarah yang mengajar Bahasa Indonesia telah datang dan pelajaran segera dimulai. Tak seperti biasanya aku memperhatikan pelajaranku, aku sekarang sedang memikirkan perkataan Hendra tadi. Aku yang merasa tak ada hubungan dengan Nia kembali bertanya-tanya pada diriku sendiri.
"Apa hubunganku dengannya? Siapa dia? Kenapa dia seperti begitu dekat denganku?"
Banyak sekali pertanyaanku. Dan lagi, Hendra yang melihat hubunganku yang dekat dengan Nia, membuatku tambah bingung. Sedangkan aku sendiri tak merasakan sesuatu dengan Nia. Hanya perasaan aneh saja yang sempat kurasakan. Dan sekarang, aku berada pada situasi yang aneh itu kembali. Situasi aneh apakah ini? Apakah aku memang menyukai Nia? Namun aku tak memiliki perasaan apapun padanya.
Aku tak menyadari, bahwa bu Sarah memberikan pertanyaannya mengenai materi puisi yang sedang dia terangkan saat ini padaku.
"Abdi, coba kamu jelaskan yang dimaksud puisi Elegi."
Aku masih melamun. Karena tidak mendapat tanggapan dariku, bu Sarah memanggil namaku dengan nadanya yang sedikit lebih keras.
"Abdiii!"
Bu Sarah terus memanggilku sampai tiga kali. Aku hanya terus melamun hingga tiba-tiba Nia memanggil namaku, namun aku tak menanggapinya juga. Kemudian dia menyentuhkan jari telunjuk kananya pada badanku. Sontak aku kaget dan merasa sedikit geli, ku menoleh kearahnya. Dia memberikan isyarat padaku agar melihat kearah guruku yang sedang melihatku tersebut.
"Abdi, apa yang sedang kamu lamunkan?"
Aku hanya menjawabnya dengan nadaku yang datar.
"Gak apa-apa bu."
"Kalau begitu, sekarang kamu jawab pertanyaan ibu tadi. Kira-kira menurutmu jawabannya apa?"
Aku yang tak mendengarkan perkataan guruku sebelumnya kembali menanyakan pertanyaannya tersebut dengan nadaku yang datar.
"Tadi Ibu menanyakan apa ya?"
Sontak teman-teman dikelas tertawa akan hal itu. Aku yang masih bingung hanya bisa terdiam sambil melihat-lihat buku Bahasa Indonesiaku itu.
"Jadi kamu tak memperhatikan ibu dari tadi ya?"

Aku hanya menjawabnya sambil meminta maaf sambil tertunduk dengan nadaku yang datar.
"Iya bu, maafkan saya."
Bu guru yang merasa bahwa aku tidak konsentrasi dalam pembelajarannya tersebut memberikanku sebuah tugas.
"(Berpikir sejenak) Kalau begitu, ibu akan menyuruhmu membuat sebuah puisi mengenai lamunanmu tersebut sebelum pelajaran ini usai."
Aku hanya mengiyakannya. Lalu pembelajaranpun dimulai kembali. Kali ini aku memperhatikan pelajaran ini dengan baik dan seksama, karena kutakut nantinya tugas yang diberikan semakin banyak dan sulit.
Tiba-tiba Nia memanggil namaku, lalu aku menoleh kearahnya.
"(Memasang wajah bingung) Kamu tadi sedang melamunkan apa?"
Aku bingung harus mengatakan apa, aku hanya menjawabnya dengan nadaku yang datar tanpa melihatnya sambil menulis.
"Tidak ada."
Nia sepertinya tak merasa puas akan jawabanku tersebut dan bertanya kembali padaku.
"Yang benar Di?"
Aku yang merasa terganggu akan hal itu hanya memberikan isyarat untuk diam dengan menempelkan jari telunjukku di bibir.
"Ssssssst."
Lalu kulihat wajahnya yang cemberut itu kembali memperhatikan guru didepan. Aku kembali memperhatikan guruku sambil menulis hal-hal yang menurutku penting di buku catatanku. Hingga akhirnya jam pelajaran hampir usai. Bu guruku langsung menagih sebuah puisi mengenai lamunanku. Aku yang pasrah hanya bisa berdiri sambil membacakan puisiku tersebut dengan nadaku yang datar tanpa melihat mereka.
"Lamunanku. Aku bingung apa yang dimaksudkannya kepadaku. Pertanyaan demi pertanyaannya itu membuatku semakin bingung. Aku tak merasakan apapun mengenai hal tersebut. Hanya saja, apa yang membuatnya berpikiran seperti itu? Namun, aku sudah menjawabnya sesuai dengan pemikirianku. Itulah puisi lamunanku."
Mereka terlihat bingung dengan puisiku. Mungkin hanya aku dan Hendra yang mengetahui maksud dari puisiku tersebut. Tak lama kemudian bel istirahat berbunyi, bu Sarah mengakhiri mata pelajarannya. Mereka semua berbondong-bondong untuk keluar kelas. Hingga hanya tersisa aku, Nia dan Hendra.
Nia sedang menulis sesuatu di binder catatannya itu. Sedangkan hendra berjalan menghampiriku dan mengatakan hal yang sama sebelumnya untuk memastikannya sambil membisikkannya ditelingaku.

"Apakah yang kau katakan sebelumnya itu benar?"
Aku menjawabnya dengan nadaku yang datar sambil mengambil bekal dan air minumku ditas.
"Iya, kalau begitu aku mau makan dulu."
Lalu aku pergi meninggalkan Hendra dan Nia. Nia yang melihatku dengan Hendra sedang membicarakan sesuatu menanyakannya pada Hendra mengenai hal itu.
"Tadi apa yang kalian bicarakan."
Hendra yang terlihat sedikit gugup menjawabnya dengan nadanya yang agak aneh kepadanya.
"Ti tidak ada. Kalau gitu aku duluan Nia. Daaa."
Hendra melambaikan tangannya kearah Nia sambilberjalan agak cepat dan meninggalkan Nia sendirian dikelas. Nia membalasnyadengan melambaikan tangannya kepada Hendra. Setelah Hendra sudah pergi, Nia kembalilagi menulis sesuatu di binder catatannya tersebut.

A World Forgotten
***This story will contain lite-litrpg elements, mainly character pages and a town page. There will also be settlement building and adventuring, missteps and achievements. But one thing it definitely won’t have is a harem. Nor will it have an overpowered MC. Contains mild cursing.*** ***feel free to critique my writing and offer input. This is my first venture into writing. I've always enjoyed litrpg/gamelit books. I feel like I write how I talk, so it may be a little different. You won't hurt my feelings if you see something wrong or out of place! *** ***What follows is a condensed part of chapter 1. Enjoy!*** Drew Cooper is thrust into a new, unfamiliar world. Waking up in his sweats and t-shirt near what seems to be a forgotten path through some woods, he struggles coming to terms that he's no longer in his apartment. As he tries to cope with his new reality, he hears a horse coming down the path. He hides behind a nearby tree dreading what may happen next. As the horse approaches, he sees a man walking next to it. The horse is burdened with packs and gear. When the man nears, Drew nearly panics. He has a large sword strapped to his waist, obviously a fighter. He continues to hide as the man slowly passes only for the man to stop a dozen meters past his hiding spot. "You may as well come out, ya know. You weren't as well hidden as you thought," the man stated matter-of-factly, letting the horse’s reins go and putting his hand on the hilt of his sword. Slowly and scared for his life, Drew raised up and walked from behind the tree. "I-I'm sorry. I wasn't planning on attacking you. I-I don't know where I am. I heard your horse and hid. I didn't know what you'd do if you saw me. I'm sorry," he nervously blurted out. A minute passed. Then two. The man seemed interested with Drew and stepped closer, eyes squinting as if trying to see something. "What's that on your shirt? Is that. What is that? Is that, Pac-man?" The man was visibly shaken while pointing at me. Looking down at his t-shirt nervously, "Yea. Yea. I woke up here a few hours ago I think. 3 maybe 4 hours. I’ve just been sitting here. Where am I? What's going on?" Drew asked. "That's not important right now," the man replied. " What's important is where you're from. What year is it?" "What year? April something 2020. Why? What's going on?" Drew continued now worried. The man was taken aback. After a few moments, he seemed to calm himself some. The man sighed and looked at Drew in earnest. "Well, I've got good news and bad news for ya. Bad news is you're not on Earth anymore. Good news is you happened to run into me and not someone else. You’re either really lucky, or it’s fate we met in these woods, and I don’t believe in luck." The man continued to walk towards Drew while talking and put out his hand. "I'm John Mitchell from St. Louis or thereabouts. You’ve got nothing to be scared of by me. Walk with me and let’s talk."
