Bait Puisi

Aku, Kasih Rinjani. Seorang siswa SMA yang sangat menyukai puisi. Bahkan dikehidupanku hanya berkutat tentang puisi, sahabat dan mama. Tidak ada kata cinta yang terlibat dalam kehidupanku. Kata itu hanya ku selipkan direntetan puisi yang kubuat. Ya, hanya dalam karyaku saja. Hingga suatu ketika aku bertemu dengan seorang siswa laki-laki bernama Abadi Dirgantara. Seorang Abadi Dirgantara yang tanpa sengaja singgah dikehidupanku berhasil memporakporandakan hatiku. Hati yang tidak pernah berpenghuni tiba-tiba saja menumbuhkan sebuah rasa benci yang perlahan menjadi cinta. Namun naasnya, takdir tidak memihak padaku dan Abadi. Tuhan justru mengaitkan aku dan Abadi dalam sebuah takdir kejam dengan dalih kebahagiaan. Lalu mampukah aku bertahan untuk tetap bersama Abadi? Atau haruskah aku pasrah dengan takdir Tuhan tanpa berusaha sama sekali?

"What?" she mumbles in disbelief. "My present net worth is more or less 500 billion dollars" he unconcernedly replied. Stunned, she becomes quiet.
