TWO-WAY MONOLOGUE

Saya : Aku rasa kita memang makhluk introvert.

Dia : Ha?

Saya : Iya.

Dia : Hahahaha. Karena dari tadi kerjaan kita hanya ngomong tentang orang lain.

Saya : Yes. In spite of talking 'bout ours, we’re busy discuss about others’. Hahaha.

Dia : Hahahaha. Yayaya.

Saya : Benar-benar ciri orang introvert

Dia : Oi. Sucksssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.

Saya : Kenapa?

Dia : Everything is sucks. Damn!!!!

Saya : Means?

Dia : Everything. Life. Sucks.

Saya : Why?

Dia : Nothing seems going rite.

Saya : Though you've tried?

Dia : Yep.

Saya : Life like what it is?

Dia : Hahhhhhhh. Can't even describe anything.

Saya : I see.

Dia : Need to go somewhere. Scream out loud. Act like I'm not a human.

Saya : Then go, can’t you?

Dia : Dance crazily.

Dia : Where the hell i can find the place to do that???

Saya : Scream and dance? Karaoke.

Dia : With whom can I go karaoke???? Nobody seems know what I feel. Except you, of course.

Saya : You don’t share it with anybody else?

Dia : I do, but everyone has their own problems now. And ya, I think you're the one who really can understand what I feel now without, of course, tell it in detail. Psychological thing.

Saya : Bersosialisasilah.

Dia : Bersosialisasi?? I do. I share this madness to some people I know. But, it’s not in this suck suck way. I mean I don’t tell them the suck terms. I’m not as free as I tell it to you. Even for the most suck one.

Saya : Kenapa?

Dia : Beda aja caranya.

Saya : Dunia kerja memang sebegitu menyebalkannya. Tekanan memuncak, dan ga ada tempat yang benar-benar bagus buat berbagi.

Dia : Tau ahhh. Lelah. Stop it here.Thanks yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Saya : Beneran udahan?

Dia : Yes.

Saya : Mmmm. Jangan sampe kamu ngulang kesalahan aku. Inget, jaga sosialisasi.

Dia : Maksudnya?? Jaga sosialisasi??

Saya : In term we’re concerning bout life, some people become antisocial. I’ve been there. And for me, it’s hard enough to get out of that state.

Dia : [terdiam].

Saya : Whatever you feel, spill it out. Throw it away.

Dia : Yes.

Saya : Jangan dipendam lama-lama. Jangan mikir sendirian.

Dia : I’ll remember this.

Saya : Kalau butuh support, bilang.

Dia : Siippp. Makasih yaaaaaaaaaa.

Saya : Siiip.

Dia : I'm starting to cry now.

Saya : Ga papa.

Saya : We’re human, after all. We’re so weak. And it sucks. Let the feeling in.

Dia : Pinjem kata-katanya yah. Too cool to not be quoted. Hahahaha.

Saya : Haha. Pay it forward.

Dia : Ha? Hope the others get the message too??

Saya : Itu arti gedeannya. Sama-sama saling mengingatkan.

Dia : Arti kecilnya gue harus bayar royalty. Hahahaha.

Saya : Kaga lah. Ketika aku atau kamu atau yang lain sedanga dalam kondisi setipe, ingatkan itu. Bantu yang sedang membutuhkan,
