《LOVENEMIES [END]》78 - Kebahagiaan Karena Terikat
Advertisement
Jantung Bae Sooji berdetak kencang. Meskipun dia setuju untuk berkencan dengan Kim Myungsoo, dia tidak tahu bagaimana menghadapi pria itu sekarang. Dia melepaskan diri dari pelukannya dan masih memegangi payungnya, dia terus berjalan ke depan sendirian.
Myungsoo mengikuti di belakangnya. Setelah beberapa saat, dia naik ke sisinya dan mengambil payung dari tangannya. Dia menggunakan satu tangan untuk mengangkat payung dan tangan lainnya untuk memegang Sooji dengan erat.
Sooji menatap kakinya. Hujan sudah menumpuk di trotoar hitam-aspal dan saat ini mengalir di sepanjang jalan dengan tetesan tipis.
Myungsoo menatap rambut hitam legamnya dan bertanya,"Malu?"
"Diam."
Myungsoo mencibir. Tawanya yang rendah memegang pesona samar yang memabukkan yang berlama-lama di udara lembab yang dipenuhi hujan.
Panas naik ke wajah Sooji. Dia merasa ada sesuatu yang salah dengan otaknya sebelumnya. Kenapa tiba-tiba saja dia setuju?
Dia berpikir untuk menarik kembali tangannya, tapi Kim Myungsoo memiliki pegangan yang mirip dengan kematian. Baik, kau menang karena kau begitu kuat.
Mereka berjalan seperti itu untuk jarak yang jauh sebelum menemukan sebidang tanah yang tidak rata. Genangan air cukup dalam dan Sooji tampak ragu-ragu, tidak dapat menemukan tempat untuk melangkah. Tiba-tiba, Myungsoo berbicara,"Jangan lupa bahwa kau memiliki kekasih sekarang."
"...?"
Myungsoo melepaskan tangan Sooji dan menekuk lengannya. Dengan hanya menggunakan tangan itu, dia mengangkat Sooji dari tanah sampai kakinya menggantung di udara. Kemudian, dengan satu tangan masih di atas payung dan tangan lainnya menggendongnya, dia menyeberangi genangan air.
Itu posisi yang tidak biasa. Sooji merasa seperti karung goni yang ditumbuk di lengan seseorang. Wajahnya menoleh ke arah Myungsoo, dia memperhatikannya dengan tubuh kaku dan tidak berani bergerak. Sudut wajah Myungsoo dari samping sangat mencolok. Siluet yang jelas dari telinganya menunjukkan bentuk yang terbentuk dengan baik seperti gayung besar. Bagaimana seseorang bisa terlihat begitu tampan sampai bahkan telinganya juga terlihat menarik?
Myungsoo menurunkan Sooji setelah menyeberangi genangan air. Dia menunduk dan menatapnya.

Sooji juga menatapnya. Mata mereka bertemu dan di mata satu sama lain, mereka melihat hamparan bintang yang tak berujung.
Bibir Myungsoo melengkung. Dia meletakkan telapak tangannya di kepala gadis itu dan menepuk.
Sama seperti ini, mereka kembali ke universitas. Hujan lebat berlanjut sepanjang jalan mereka kembali. Orang-orang yang lewat bepergian dengan langkah tergesa-gesa sementara mobil-mobil dengan wiper kaca depan bergerak melewati dengan cipratan... Itu jelas merupakan perjalanan yang menjemukan tapi itu menjadi kenangan yang akan diingat Sooji bahkan di akhir hidupnya.
Sooji akan selamanya ingat bagaimana pada malam ini saat mereka memutuskan untuk bertemu, mereka berjalan beriringan di tengah hujan. Jantungnya berdebar kencang sementara pikirannya bergejolak. Setiap langkah yang diambilnya terasa seperti sedang berjalan di udara. Hujan lebat berhembus di bawah payung dan mendarat di wajah mereka dalam bintik-bintik yang tersebar. Dingin dan segar, rasanya seolah-olah hujan itu bertujuan untuk mendinginkan panas di pipi mereka.
Satu-satunya romansa dalam seluruh hidupnya dimulai pada malam yang biasa namun tak terlupakan.
Bahkan setelah Myungsoo kembali ke asramanya malam itu, bibirnya masih melengkung.
Nam Woohyun menggigit hotdog yang setengah terbuka. Dia menatap layar komputernya, berkonsentrasi penuh pada permainannya.
Melihat dua kaleng bir yang belum dibuka di atas mejanya, Myungsoo mengambil satu, membukanya dan meneguknya.
Woohyun mengangkat pandangannya dari layar untuk melirik sejenak. Dia melihat bahwa Myungsoo tersenyum sementara matanya tampak kosong dan berdesir dengan pikiran yang tidak diketahui. Woohyun bingung. "Ada apa denganmu?"
Kim Myungsoo menggelengkan kepalanya sambil memegang birnya. "Kau tidak akan mengerti bahkan jika aku memberitahumu, dasar jomblo."
"..."
Waktu: Saat Bae Sooji berusia enam tahun.
Bae Sooji: Kenapa anak perempuan harus lembut dan pendiam?
Kepala Sekolah Bae: Karena semua orang menyukai gadis yang lembut dan pendiam.
Bae Sooji: Lalu, apa aku seorang gadis yang lembut dan pendiam?
Kepala Sekolah Bae: Dari mana kau mendapatkan kepercayaan diri untuk menanyakan ini?
Bae Sooji: Oh, karena semua orang menyukaiku.
Kepala Sekolah Bae: ...
Sial, aku bahkan tidak bisa membantahnya.

War of the Zwei Kinds [Logbook Deactivated]
It’s the end of the world as humanity knew it. A time where humans and humanoids co-existed. Alien Life forces had no choice but to work together, to save the place they were brought into aeons ago. Aliens, what aliens? They look like us, speak like us, and act like us. Higher intelligence so to speak is truly existent, but with a cost. By working with the humans, they created Guardian Weapons--your every day looking weapons but with a slight shift of using condensed energy instead of typical gunpowder. However, this wasn't all. A secret governmental team of operatives scouted from all around the world was trying to find a cure for *The Happening*. An endangering disaster which wiped out most of the male species, whether human, animal or any type of sexual reproduction in the other kingdoms. Equipped with weapons of bio-destruction, they will mow down the terrorist groups, the hidden organizations, and any other party--that tries to stop their freedom and rights. This fiction is written, maintained and owned by Jann Lueder who is following the acts of the Writer's Pledge. P.S If you are wondering, there is no sort of Harem genre involved, it looks like it at first glance but the plot will explain it all.
