Friend makes the world go round - Buat Lala

(Buat Lala)

What is the world consisting of? The world consists of yesterday, today, tomorrow, happiness, sorrow, friendship, you name it! The list can go on and on. But today, I feel like the only thing that makes the world go round is a certain friend.

I called it a farewell email, she said that she will leave this island and go for another exciting journey with her new family. “Gosh, another good friend is gone”, I thought.

I’ve known her for about 9 years. For some reasons, it’s always nice talking with her, maybe because we shared the same birth sign. We shared most of things related to –adventure activities – , from Rinjani to white water rafting, from Sekongkang waterfall to Hickey’s trail. “Ahhhh, we’ve shared many things, didn’t we?” I whispered

Not once or twice we talked so much about God’s creature so called “Man!!” an interesting topic to discuss, heh...I remember on a rainy day when we rode on your motorcycle, and ended up at the Sate Rembiga. We’ve never planned to go there, it was something spontaneous but we ended up spending the whole afternoon talking and sharing stories (off course with the sate!).

I guess, having you as my friend is part of my friendship world, it moves things in that area and it’s just nice feeling having this kind of friend.

Hey you!!! Thanks for everything, thanks for being you. It is a pleasure to have crossed path with you in this so called Sumbawa Island. I will miss your presence here, I definitely will miss a person who has “lelet/telat/lambat” tag on her hehe.

I will miss your little one for sure, thinking of her growing up, it will be so much fun!! Say hi to Uncle Sam from me, will you?

Gambatte kudasai!

Friend does make my world go round, how about yours?
