Now what?

Remember that post ending scene in Finding Nemo? The scene where all the fish succeeded in getting themself back to the sea, but still trapped inside the plastic bag, and one of the fish said: "Now What?". Hilarious scene. Yet, at the same time, also sad. Well, I can proudly say that line too: "NOW WHAT?" After all of those years being involved with you, your issues, mine, you as one of those issues of mine, and me as the problematic girl with the problematic you... (Hey, it's issues-ception!) Ok, stop it Dee. Well yeah, after all of those years back and forth with you, I'm literally saying the "Now What" line over and over again in my head lately. I felt like I had no purpose in life now.

No. It's not about the movie. Or the book. It's about me, before you... ...and after. Tiap benda di dunia memiliki hati. Dan, seorang penyair pernah berkata kepadaku, semesta sendiri pula memiliki hati. Aku memikirkan kata-kata itu- dan aku tidak mampu tidak memikirkan matamu. Sepasang matamu, bencana raksasa di kejauhan. Tidak berhenti membuat hidupku jadi benda kecil yang memiliki hati - Tidak Ada New York Hari Ini, 2016 Saya tau kamu bukan orang yang suka membaca. When it comes to based on the books' movies, you always said that you'd rather watch the movie than read the books, rite? Tapi saya menulis ini dengan harapan bahwa kamu, mau membacanya. Sebentar saja. Bukan, ini bukan novel setebal 600 halaman yang kamu hindari, atau Wall Street Journal yang bahkan bisa mengerutkan kening saya ketika saya baca. Tulisan ini isi hati saya. Apa yang sungguh-sungguh saya rasakan. Honest. Raw. And nothing, not even a si...
