Chapter 30 : Post Break Up Trauma

July 16, 2010

 

The Present Joey.

Do you remember Joey, my ex-besties from chapter 7?  

Beberapa bulan yang lalu setelah dia mencoba pacaran lagi, akhirnya putus lagi.

Damn ! I feel a bit guilty, karena meyakinkan dia untuk menjatuhkan hatinya.

This morning he’s texting me to meet up. “Don’t forget to bring Keith. And yes, Cyrrus. I'm missing him slash my biggest enemy, anyway..”

“That’s not your fault, potato-head ! Salah dia ndiri ga bisa maintain hubungan. Don’t you ever feel guilty. At all. He is bad romance!” Kata Cyrrus dalam perjalanan.

Well, I just can’t.

Jadi usut punya usut, ternyata dia putus karena pacarnya mau nikah bulan depan. 

Oh god, CHECK MATE !!

Here we are. Party of four. Just like the old formation. Just like the old time. 

Before Joey done something wrong to us. (I forgave him, anyway =p)

“Wow. You look so skinny, Joe. How you do it?” Buka saya.

“Yeah.. Try being dumped by ur boyfriend, received wedding invitation, and pretending that you are fine for the whole week with drinking Smirnoff.”

“Euch.. that’s the diet I wont be trying.” Kata Keith.

And here’s Cyrrus. Dia memberanikan diri duduk di sebelah Joey.

“You okay, Joey?”

“I’m good Baby-Cy. How are you?”

“Still single. Still mingle. A bit desperate for the real love.”

“My former hubby is getting married next month. And the bride is way prettier than me.”

“You win, Joey. You always win.” Lalu kami semua diam.

“What about you treat me Mango Blast or should we get two pain-killer pills ?” keduanya terbahak.

 

 

(Back to) The Old Joey.

Joey memutuskan untuk menjadi yang dulu : Top bitch with bunch of lovers, and none of them serious.

Playing the poker face. Playing love gambling. Playing around and swipe the card until it reaches the limit.

Use all the vouchers, baby !! Swipe the card till drop !!

“To the point aja. Gua ini enggak cocok pacaran. Some of you are meant to be together with someone. And mine? Nasib gua ini ya single dan main-main terus aja. So please, don’t push me to be in relationship again. Ever !” tertohok deh ah!!

It seems like he has sorrow that even heaven can’t heal.

Ini nih yang bikin orang trauma abis putus. Takut disakitin lagi. Jadinya pelariannya ke macem-macem. Kemana aja deh, asal bisa lupain yang kemarin secara kilat.

Well, let’s see deh. And however, saya lebih suka ngeliat si Joey single. Kesannya lebih hidup, lebih fun, dan ga kusut kaya begini lah!

--

“I decide to not coming to the wedding ceremony.”

“What? Why? Disitu elu bisa nunjukin kalo elu oke-oke aja tanpa dia.” Kata saya.

“Gimana kalo malah entar gua nangis didepan mereka?”

“That’s why we, four of us, are coming with u, stupid queen!” kata saya lagi.

Mereka bertiga melongo, kompak. Tanpa saya.

(to be continued...)

For all those sorrow hearts : No matter who broke your heart or how long it takes to heal, you'll never get through it without your friends. =)
