Midnight Affair:8
I GOT INTO NGEE ANN POLY, MASS COMMUNICATION. SO BASICALLY, I’M ACCEPTED IN BOTH SP AND NP! BUT I’M GOING TO NP, DREAM COME TRUE?!
Rasa cinta hanya terbiak dihati. Kata-kata ayu hanya ditiup angin, ngak pernah dilafaz. Mengapa kami enggan mengerti perasaan yang sudah tentu ada? Mengapa harus kami saling jeling-menjeling tetapi satu perkataan cinta tidak pernah terungkap? Katakanlah, kau cinta padaku.
Since i’m in the mood, let me attempt to write a short story. Don’t get your hopes up, cuz my story could just finish as abruptly as it started. Lets call it, A Typical Love Story.
"Maybe i’ve been here before. I know this room, i’ve walked this floor. I used to live alone before i knew you. I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch, love is not a victory march. It’s a cold and broken hallelujah."
Perhaps that is true Jacobs thought, but he’ll never understand love. Simply because he’s never fallen in love. How could someone preach so much about love and yet never knowing how it feels like to be in love?
He gazed out of the window, wearing only shorts, he was greeted by the night wind. He looked up to the heavens for solitude, but even the night sky which usually brings him comfort seemed dead. The stars normally ablazed with passion, seemed oddly cold. It was as if they were lost in the universe.
"What are you staring at?"
That voice, that deep sultry voice. Lord, what insane thoughts have you planted in my head. What promises have you made with the devil that I have to pay the price for. NO, this is sexual insanity.
Before Jacobs could turn around, he felt the contact of skin-on-skin. Burly, muscular arms were wrapped around him. They were so close Jacobs could feel the warmth of Jeremaia’s body next to his, he could not help but feel the chiseled body that laid against his. Slowly, he felt a Jeremaia’s face against his cheeks. Could this intimate moment be love? Is this how it feels to be in love? Is love just an adrenaline rush?
It was a moment suspended in confusion.
The two bodies found themselves lying next to each other on the bed; unclothed. They were sweating, it wasn’t completely awkward to make love to someone whom you don’t have the slightest feelings for. The two were tangled in their love nest, holding each other close.
Jeremaia looked into his partner’s eyes. He brought his lips closer to Jacobs ear and whispered, "what were you gazing at just now?"
Jacobs hesitated, instead the words that found their way out of his throat were " why do you care?"
"Because, i think i’m falling in love."
That reply hit Jacobs, it hitted him hard.
"Why do you love me, even when you know that i have never loved you?"
"I thought if i gave you time, and if you are not too long, i would wait here for you all my life. Now, tell me, what were you looking at just now?"
"A life, never to call my own."
NOW! look how selfish i am. I’m here talking about feelings and emotions. When there are those in the world who are too hungry to even think. There are those who are fighting for the lives of their families and i am here, writing. I watched National Geographic with Muffin. He’s my ginger persian with a smashed face. He’s starting to get cuddly. He has really thick fur and its a cold night; oh that warm and fuzzy feeling. So it was about some Taliban shit. What really caught my attention was the filmtography. Brilliant colours and images. Dad said if i were stuck here i would be saying " wtf am i doing here?!" and i told him, that’s the thing, i won’t. But if i were ever to be sent to Afganistan on some god-forsaken trip, i’d love to have an SLR with me. AND food, cuz this guy was complaining that he had to slaughter his hen. I don’t think i’d have to bother about shampoo and wax or hairspray.
When the sun rises again, i will be there with you my friend. I will be there. I wish you would miss me, the way that i miss you. Bestfriends day out soon.
