"What? Ibu? Saya belum nikah, Mas. Jadi panggilnya jangan Ibu!" kesal Julia, "Panggil Julia aja. Ju.li.a. Julia Malika Kuncoro! Ngerti nggak?" tambah Julia mengeja namanya.
Terdengar kekehan kecil dari lubang smartphone milik Julia dan tentu saja itu adalah suara dari petugas call center salah satu provider besar di Indonesia, bernama lengkap Saidan Pratama Putra tadi.
"Iya, Mbak Julia. Ada yang bisa kami bantu?"
Nampak sekali lagi suara laki-laki itu mencoba untuk bersahabat dengan Julia, namun sayangnya si guru honorer kembali lagi melontarkan amukannya lagi.
"Ih, Mas ini ada-ada aja. Tadi 'kan udah gue kasih tahu jangan panggil Mbak! Memangnya aku ini udah setua itu? Ya udah deh, masa bodoh ah sama kamu, Mas!" umpat Julia, "Intinya aku mau minta tambahan extra quota dong. Soalnya quota di kartu aku habis nih," sebelum ia kembali berbicara dan menyampaikan maksud dan tujuannya menelepon.
Maka dengan sangat hati-hati Saidan kembali berbicara lagi, "Baiklah, sebelumnya mohon maaf. Kartu SIM Anda diregistrasikan atas nama siapa kalau boleh tahu?"
"Julia Malika Kuncoro. Tempat dan tanggal lahir Jakarta, 21 Juli 1995. Alamat di KTP, jalan bakti karang no. 5 RW. 3 RT. 7 Citayem, Depok. Provinsi, Banten. Negara, Indonesia. Kode Pos 12127. Nama Ibu kandung Tyas Larasati. Sudah lengkap, kan? Apa lagi yang masih kurang, Mas? Status, jomblo akut. Pekerjaan, guru honorer di Sekolah Dasar. Alamat domisili, kampung rambutan! Puas?" lalu Julia, menjelaskan dirinya secara detail.
"Buset! Asli nih cewek kocak banget. Emang gue tadi tanya sedetail itu ya sama dia?" hingga Saidan pun membatin sembari menahan tawanya.
Sungguh ia tak bisa menyimpan rasa keterkejutannya, atas tingkah sang pelanggan provider di tempatnya bekerja itu. Sampai-sampai perutnya sakit menahan tawa.
Sudah hampir delapan bulan Saidan bekerja sebagai penerima telpon atau biasa disebut dengan nama customer service di sana, namun baru kali ini ia menemukan kejadian lucu dan unik seperti itu.
Alhasil secepat kilat ia mengambil ponsel yang terletak tidak jauh dari meja kerjanya dan 'klik' dengan cepat pula ia mengambil gambar yang tersedia di layar monitor komputer kerjanya.
"Halo, Mas? Halooo...?"
"Eh... Iya, iya! Mau apa tadi?"
"Lha kok balik nanya mau apa? Ya mau tambahan extra quota dong, Mas. Masa mau beli susu kental manis cap nona?! Yang benar aja? Situ sehat, Mas?" ejek Julia menertawakan kegugupan Saidan yang benar-benar lucu, "Makanya kalau kerja itu yang fokus. Gih, cepat diproses, Mas. Saya mau tambah extra quota smartphone yang delapan gigabite itu," lanjut Julia.
Maka terjadilah obrolan formal di antara kedua jomblo nestapa itu, "Oke. Makasih, Mas Saidan. Salam kenal, ya? Kukasih kiss deh biar nggak gagal fokus lagi. Muachhh... Kapan-kapan kita kopi darat, ya? Dadahhh... Tut tut tuttt..." lalu berujung dengan Julia yang berpamitan, seperti baru selesai bertamu ke rumah orang.
Demi Tuhannn...! Debaran jantung Saidan seakan bekerja sepuluh kali lebih cepat dari sebelumnya, ketika mendengar Julia berkata seperti itu.
Senyum yang sejak tadi berada disudut bibir kanannya, pun semakin melebar dengan suara hati yang terus menyemangati.
Sayangnya lamunan disertai dengan cengiran itu harus berakhir sebentar, "Udah! Kenalan aja habis ini, Brother. Lagian 'kan tinggal telepon nomornya tadi. Beres, dong ya?" karena rekan sejawat Saidan Pratama Putra yang bernama Heru Sudi Hutomo, tiba-tiba saja datang dan mengagetkan dirinya.
Dengan semangat empat lima Saidan menjawab perkataan Heru, "Baiklah. Oke deh pokoknya, Her. Siapa takut? Nanti deh pulang kerja baru gue telpon dia. Semoga aja beneran jomblo. Penasaran gue sama tingkah kocak tuh cewek. Bagaimana ya bentuknya? Semoga aja cakep dan seksi. Jadi paket komplit deh. Kocak, cantik plus seksi juga," sembari terus saja menerbitkan senyum di bibirnya.
Tak ayal Heru yang terkenal jahil, pun semakin getol menggoda Saidan, "Wah wah wahhh... Itu senyum kenapa jadi semakin lebar, Brother? Lihat di foto FB-nya aja kali? Lu save nomornya, terus cek deh tuh apa ada akun FB-nya atau enggak. Ntar kalau emang cakep, nanti lu harus bagi gue satu ya? Gue 'kan jomblo juga, sama kayak elu," bahkan memberinya cara lain yang hampir saja ia lupakan.
Akan tetapi Saidan tak langsung menyimpan nomor ponsel Julia yang tadi ia jepret ke dalam ponselnya, agar dapat melihat seperti, "Hooh, dapat rezeki gede gue. Sayangnya nggak bakalan bisa dibagi sama elu, Her. Masa mau gue belah badannya itu cewek bagi dua? Bagaimana dong?"
"Cewek?! Jadi lu beneran teleponan sama cewek barusan?" melainkan sibuk menggoda balik Heru, sampai wajah kaget pria itu pun tergambar jelas di sana.
"Ya iyalah gue barusan ngomong sama cewek. Masa dari tadi elu pikir gue bohong? Apa lu pikir gue ngomong sama cowok? Yang bener aja lu," kekeh Saidan mengejek.
"Lho! Gue kira elu becandaan aja dari tadi sama gue. Elu bisa dipecat kali! Lupa ya setiap percakapan orang-orang ke call center akan direkam? Wah, bener-bener lu! Nekat atau apaan sih?" lalu Heru pun membalas demikian.
Satu kekehan terdengar lagi pita suara Saidan, "Nggaklah. Gue nggak bicara aneh-aneh kok sama dia. Gue cuma foto aja nomornya dia tadi. Japri dong kecenginnya. Masa ia gue nggak modal banget kecengin cewek dari call center gini. Nanti namanya jadi--"
"Call center cinta!" potong Heru dan mereka tertawa di kubikel masing-masing.
Hanya saja dalam hati Saidan, ia semakin mantap berniat untuk mengenal wanita bernama Julia Malika Kuncoro tadi. Sehingga rasa penasaran pun membawanya mengambil bolpoin yang ada di laci kubikel, lalu ia mulai mencatat nomor ponsel yang ia foto tadi.
Ia pun secepat kilat menambahkan nomor tersebut ke dalam kontak teleponnya dan tak sampai lima menit kemudian, "Cantik banget!" Dua kata itu pun lolos begitu saja dari mulut Saidan Pratama Putra, ketika ia melihat wajah cantik Julia Malika Kuncoro yang dijadikan foto profil aplikasi Facebook miliknya.
Saidan pun segera mengecek apakah nomor tersebut merupakan nomor yang tersambung pada aplikasi Whatsapp, dan ternyata lagi-lagi Dewi Fortuna memang sedang berpihak padanya.
Tak pelak sebaris kata-kata rayuan gombal, pun Saidan tuliskan di aplikasi whatsapp tersebut.
To : 081238685xx
Hai, Julia. Boleh kenalan? Ini saya Saidan Pratama Putra. Yang tadi ngomong sama kamu di call center itu tuh. Masih ingat, kan?Lalu pesan pun segera dikirim Saidan dari aplikasi Whatsapps-nya dan terjadilah balas membalas pesan di antara keduanya.
A father will do everything for his children. He will sacrifice his life for them. Being a parent is like having sixth sense. They know when their child sad, afraid or hurting.In Larry Higgins case, he can see that something is troubling his son. Ever since he came back to school, he's always silent and sad. No matter how many times he talks to his son, Landon would never tell him what is going on."Mr. Higgins, good morning." Principal Merrlyn greeted Larry when he entered his office."I didn't come back on the day that I promised because I had to be there for my son. I am her now, and I want to know what have you done to find out what happened to him?" Larry said in a demanding tone."We've questioned every student, but so far, no one told us anything. I'm so sorry, Larry—""So that's it? Sorry? Sorry that my son was pushed on the stairs? Sorry that my son almost died? What am I supposed to do with that?" He interrupted Principal Merrlyn's
Bullying. When is it considered bullying? When you said every hurtful words to the person that you almost literally pushed him of the roof top? When you've hurt him enough that you might as well slashed his own wrist for him? Bullying, whether verbal or physical, or even cyber bullying is still bullying. It's wrong, and it's a crime against humanity.Landon Higgins finally recovered from his injuries. He came back to school with a heavy heart. For a short while, he felt peace. Spending time at home, inside his room, alone. No one can hurt him. He felt safe somehow. Now, back to reality."You really have a death wish, do you? Why don't you just drop out? No one wants you here." One of Xavier's friends said. It's the 7:45 in the morning, yet their group is already having their fun on him."Landon, my boy! I thought you're already dead. Freaks don't die easy, do they?" That's Xavier who just arrived.Sarah and Alex are watching those kids push Landon around.
They say every life is important, but why do people find it fun to ruin other people's lives. Throughout history, many has died because of the suffering that people caused them. Why don't people learn from their mistakes?Landon finally woke after being in a coma for almost a week. His father was happy to see his beautiful eyes again. Dr. Patel was truly relieved with the progress of his health. But, no matter how many times his father questioned him, he still chose to keep his mouth shut."Hey, buddy. How are you doing?" Officer Brickham greeted when he entered his room."Good morning, officer." Landon greeted back."It's nice to see you smiling again, kid. Are you feeling well?" Brickham asked."Yes, Officer. Thank you.""Listen, buddy. We already talked to Dr. Patel about what happened to you. We know that you were pushed, alright? We just need to know by who. Did you see who pushed you?""No." Landon said, almost whispered.
Landon is still unconscious. Dr. Patel is doing everything he can to help him, but no one really knows when he will wake up, or if he will ever wake up. Larry comes by everyday to spend some time with his son, and the dark circles around his eyes are worsening. He barely sleeps three hours a day."Mr. Higgins, you look pale. How many hours of sleep have you had since your son got admitted?" A concerned nurse asked."I'm fine. I need to be here for my son." He responded."But, your son will not be happy if you will get sick. You have to take care of yourself too." The nurse replied."I'm okay, I promise," Larry insisted.Even though he gets dizzy from time to time, Larry can't show weakness. His son needs him, and he wanted to be there once he wakes up. Landon will wake up, he knows that. His son is a strong kid. There is no way that this will be the end of his journey. But, no matter how hard he convinces himself, the fear of losing his only son ha
The next morning, Larry Higgins will pay Sunnyville High School a visit. He knew in his heart that his son did not just fall from the stairs, and he means to uncover the truth. He can't just stand aside and let those who hurt his son get away with what they did. They may be poor, but he did his b

All he ever wanted was to have friends. Kids who would invite him to play with them. He just wanted to have a normal childhood, that's all. No matter how hard he tried, nobody wanted to be his friend. They all laugh at him, especially because of the way he looked. His father is shoeshiner, someti
