“Lo sempat pacaran kan, sama Vinka?" tanyaku tiba-tiba.
“Hah? Lo.. tau darimana?" jawabnya agak ragu.
“Vito. Dan gue juga sebelumnya sedikit curiga sama lo." balasku santai.
“Iya. Sempat, tapi udah putus sih. Gak ingat gue kapan, hehehehe...." Xavier menggaruk rambutnya.
“Hiiy! Kutuan ya Mas?" Muncul Pierro dengan tangan yang memegang sebungkus makanan ringan.
“Apaan lo! Sembarangan aja kalo ngomong! Mana pernah gue kutuan. Rambut gue kan bersih, gak kayak rambut lo!" cibir Xavier pada Pierro disebelahnya.
“Heh? Btw, si Vito mana yak?"
“Ntah. Masih di kamar mungkin?"

~ Jika kau tak percaya dengan aku, JANGAN menanyakan apapun lagi padaku. Itu hal yang bodoh, SANGAT bodoh. ~
~ Tak perlu kau tanyakan bagaimana kabarku, sebab semua jawaban yang aku berikan itu sebuah KEBOHONGAN BESAR. Aku selalu menjawab, “Aku baik-baik saja", padahal aku sedang sakit. Bukan tubuhku, tapi jiwaku! ~
~ Asal kau bertanya apa aku baik-baik saja, aku selalu menjawab dengan kata ‘ya'. Benar kan? Padahal saat aku mengatakan “ya", hatiku langsung berontak sambil berteriak “tidak!" ~
~ Jadi, CUKUP! Tak usah bertanya mengenai hal apapun padaku! Aku sangat membenci orang yang selalu bertanya, namun tidak percaya. Pergi saja kau! ~
~ Satu hal lagi. Jika kau tetap ingin bertanya banyak pertanyaan padaku, pastikan kau PERCAYA dulu padaku. Saat kau belum percaya, tahan dulu pertanyaan-pertanyaanmu itu. ~
Tertanda,
Alfian.

“You sit there with that look on your face like you won
Like nothing that I say is gonna change how you feel now
You sit there and you tell me you fell outta love
__ADS_1
And we are in your way so you just gotta leave now
And we just need to understand your reasons
And you are gonna justify this treason
By telling me the promises that we sworn ain't enough
So now you gonna be another person?
And how do I explain this shit to our son?
How'd you tell a toddler about a girlfriend?
Daddy's gone
Well, I will be the strongest that he ever knew
And I will be there when he needs a love strong enough
Don't worry I will carry your share for us
No matter how bad the storm
I will be the strongest that he ever knew
And we'll leave you alone
You tell me that you feel like you lost me when he came
I'm sorry but I cannot connect with your words
'Cause right now what matters isn't yours but it is his name
And we just need to find another income
'Cause she wants you to help her with her own one
And you want me to tell me that what you've done is okay
So now you gonna be another father?
And I will be a different kind of mother?
And how do you tell a toddler 'bout step brothers?
__ADS_1
Daddy's strayed
Well, I will be the strongest that he ever knew
And I will be there when he needs a love strong enough
Don't worry I will carry your share for us
No matter how bad the storm
I will be the strongest that he ever knew
And we'll leave you alone
Let's talk about family
Let's talk about family
Let's talk of the ties and the lies
And the love that we had in this family
Let's talk about honesty
You know nothing about honesty
Let go of your hands and our plans
And the chance that we had with this family
Well, I will be the strongest that he ever knew
And I will be there when he needs a love strong enough
Don't worry I will carry your share for us
No matter how bad the storm
I will be the strongest that he ever knew
And we'll leave you alone
Oh na na, we'll leave you alone"
Kini, 1 lembar kertas dari buku maroon itu telah tertulis lirik-lirik lagu yang aku sukai.

Mungkin, hari esok, lusa, dan seterusnya, halaman demi halaman di buku itu akan terisi penuh... Kita tunggu saja.
