Too
Perfect To Be A Reality
Sunday
morning, I went to my favorite cafe. I drank tea while I was reading my favorite
novel “Believe”. I read it part by part. The novel tells about a girl who can
do anything in her life, except one thing, she can’t escape from the destiny
that she was a dragon. Even though she was a beautiful princess of kingdom, all prince adore her beauty, she was not just beauty outside but she was also
had inner beauty. She had beautiful heart. Her name was Princess Batik.
At morning, she went riding in the tea garden that was full of buds of
fresh tea leaves, it made the body and soul be calm when we breathe the air,
that was far away from “pollution” word. There was a prince who was riding
surrounding of buds of tea leaves. Suddenly my horse crassshh, my horse crashed
his horse and I fell from my horse. Then the prince turn down from his horse and
approached me then he said “Oh sorry, it’s my fault, are you hurt?” then I
answered “No, it’s okay, I am fine”
“But
your legs are hurt, look it's blooding”
He
saved me by took care of my wound.
“It
seems like my legs are getting better, thank you but I have to go home now”
Princess
Batik went quickly.
“But
wait, what’s your name? and where do you live?” the prince shouted.
“My
name is Princess Batik and I live behind the hill” Princess Batik replied.
The
prince smiled.
After
she arrived at the castle in her room, she didn’t change into a dragon, she was
still be human. She walked out to saw stars in the sky and says “Oh puppet fairy,
is he the solution? Does he the answer of my
pray every single day of my life?”.
In
the next morning, she went back to the tea garden for riding. After she went around
the entire of the tea garden, she met the prince.
“Princess
Batik, we meet again”. The prince felt happy.
“Nice
to meet you mr…” Princess Batik said.
“I
apologize because I didn’t tell my name before”. The prince smiled.
“My
name is Prince Wayang from the Kingdom of Angklung”. The prince talked.
“Wow
he is a prince” she was saying in her heart.
After
they talked for a long time, she asked him “What do you think about dragon?”
then he answered, “Dragon is interesting but it’s dangerous”.
“Why”
she said.
“Because
it can make people around you get hurt”. Prince Wayang replied.
“I
am sorry but I have to go” while she was going out.
“Wait!
Princess Batik! What’s wrong? Why do you always say those words to me?” but she
was keep going to the castle.
At night, she was still be a Princess Batik even what was just happened about Prince Wayang.
She
opened the window and said “What happened to me? Why am I still be human? I am
a princess not a dragon!”
Then the puppet fairy came with stars around her. She said “Princess Batik, you belong to
be a princess not a dragon. Your real enemy is not something else but your
enemy is yourself, try to feel yourself, calm yourself down, make yourself
believe that you are a princess Batik not somebody else. If you believe, you
will be”.
Then
she realized that she had to love herself and believe in herself.
I had to pay the bill of tea. I went to home.
After
I read that novel, I keep thinking that
I have to love myself and if I believe, I can do it.
When
I was at home, I found a letter from Netherland that I got scholarship in
Netherland. I was screaming “Oh God, it’s so exciting”.
Two
months later.
“Oh
God, mom, dad, my little brother, friend, nephew, I get scholarship in
Netherland and I am studying in Netherland right now, it’s so exciting, I can’t
believe that I’m actually here”.
Two
months later.
Well,
I met Indonesian man at the campus and we were friend in high school. He was
continuing his study to S2 in Netherland. We get closer and closer then we
decided to get in seriously relationship. We went to the campus together, we
play chess every single day of our life in Netherland.
After
we graduated, we went home to our lovely country, Indonesia. Then we got
married and lived happily ever after.
Love
yourself. Positive mindset. You just have to believe that you can do it.
