《Perempuan Pelupa》Bagian 22: Apa Yang Terjadi?
Advertisement
Keesokan harinya. Aku seperti biasa berangkat lebih awal. Sesampainya dikelas, aku melihat Nia sedang duduk sendirian di dalam kelas. Lalu aku mencoba untuk tak melihatnya sambil melihat kearah bangkuku. Lalu aku duduk dan mencoba untuk tidur diatas mejaku. Aku seperti merasa pada situasi yang canggung. Aku ingin mengatakan sesuatu pada Nia. Namun aku tak tahu harus mengatakan apa. Disatu sisi, memang aku tak terlalu terbiasa untuk berbicara dengan orang lain apalagi untuk memulainya.
Aku hanya bisa tertidur dengan memikirkan hal-hal yang kucoba tanyakan pada Nia. Waktu terasa berhenti, suasana terasa sunyi. Situasi yang aneh ini muncul kembali, akan tetapi ini sedikit berbeda dengan sebelumnya. Hingga pada akhrinya akupun tak bisa melakukan apapun. Sebenarnya apa yang kupikirkan. Aku hanya tinggal tidur dan menunggu bel masukkan tiba.
Sementara itu, Nia tidak seperti biasanya. Hari ini sepertinya dia tak ingin berbicara denganku. Dan Nia juga tak membuka sebuah pembicaraan padaku. Nia hanya duduk sembari menulis sesuatu di binder catatannya tersebut. Kami berdua tak melakukan pembicaraan apapun hingga aku mendengar suara langkah kaki menghampiri Nia. Dan ketika kulihat sedikit dibalik lenganku, kulihat Hendra sedang berbicara dengan Nia.
Mungkinkah Nia berangkat sepagi ini hanya untuk Hendra? Lalu aku mencoba untuk intospeksi diri. Aku melihat Hendra dengan wajahnya yang keren dan kesopanannya serta keterbukaanya terhadap sesama. Sedangkan aku sendiri dengan wajahku yang biasa-biasa saja dan tingkah lakuku yang tertutup ini.
Lagi-lagi aku memikirkan sesuatu yang membuatku semakin bingung. Hingga pada akhirnya akupun mencoba untuk tertidur. Aku tak ingin mengganggu mereka berdua yang lagi berbicara. Kulihat juga sepertinya mereka sangat serasi. Saat ini aku merasa sangat sedih akan suatu hal, namun aku tak tau apakah itu. Akhirnya tak berapa lama, akupun tertidur dan tak tahu bahwa bel masukkan telah berbunyi.
Ketika jam pelajaran dimulai, dia masih saja takberbicara padaku. Bahkan dia tak sedikitpun melihat kearahku. Dia hanya terpakupada papan tulis didepan. Dan ketika jam istirahat tiba, lagi-lagi dia takberbicara apapun padaku. Keesokan harinya, dia masih sama saja. Dia seakan-akanmenjauhiku tanpa alasan yang jelas.

Fallout: Vault X
An original novel set in the Fallout universe, written to be accessible to all, featuring unique people and places. Vol.II. out now Fallout: Vault X tells the story of John. A vault dweller, who spent every day of his twenty five years underground. Like his father, and his father before him. Proud to live in the last remaining bastion of humanity, all that survived The Great War of the atomic age. Hidden deep below the surface of the earth, toiling under brutal conditions. Year after year, decade upon decade. All to expand into the natural cave system the Vault occupied, building for the future. However, John knew what his forefathers did not, that everything he’d been taught was a lie. After finishing school at the age of ten, John received his standard issue pipboy. An arm mounted personal computer, worn by everyone in the Vault. Used to coordinate the relentless pace of expansion, needed to work as an apprentice. To learn the craft that would be his life’s work. A noble calling to ensure a future for all that remained of the human race. A quirk of fate saw John equipped not with the crude, clunky, pipboy model his father wore. That almost everyone around him wore. His looked smaller, sleeker, finished in a jet black sheen. And capable of doing far more than its drab counterparts. The world above had been ravaged by atomic flames, yet life clung to its bones. The Red Valley fared better than most in the century since the bombs fell. The clean water and rich soil protected by rolling hills. All spared from direct strikes, for the most part. Life survived here. Trees spawned from charred ground, misshapen, green leaves turned red. Along with simple crops, grown wild at first, then cultivated by the survivors. The scavengers of the old world were inventive, hardy people. All determined to rebuild in the ruins of a world they never knew. In the decades that passed settlements emerged. They grew, spreading along the valley floor. Reclaiming the pre-war remnants of the once industrialised heartland. Salvaging the robotic wonders of a bygone age to build their walls and work their fields. To protect them in the dark of the wasteland. But such things are uncommon in this world, and the rarer something is, the greater its value. And the worth of pre-war technology had not gone unnoticed. The last, real, power in this world rested in the mechanised hands of The Brotherhood of Steel. Forged from the mortally wounded old world military. The Brotherhood used its access to the weapons made for a conflict no one won to strike out into the wastes. Men and women were equipped with advanced armour, aerial transportation, high grade weaponry. Accompanied by the training, strength, and will, to put them to use. They established chapters and set up outputs far and wide. All dedicated to a single purpose. To ensure the technology left abandoned by its long dead creators didn’t fall into the wrong hands. Namely, any hands that were not their own. This is the world John escaped into. A place of horrors brought forth from atomic fire. A place where survival meant battling against the darkness. Fighting a war each day to get to the next. And war...war never changes

Better not jinx it.
