You and Me

           I knew her, when  I enter this school, Senior High School 10 Malang. She is a girl that have high body and brown skin.  At first, I didn’t know well, who are her, because we are in different class. Only extracurricular Flag Squad Riser (Paskibra) that met both of us. This is an extracurricular that I like very much. In this extracurricular, we know each member and become a family. But, I and her still flat, we are not closer. I think, that is caused by my character. I am quite enough person, that’s make me find difficulties to get a true friend beside me.

            That’s happen continuously, I still find difficulties to make a true friend. But, it’s changed since I in eleven grader. At the first time I entered Eleven Science 7, I sit alone. But, suddenly there is someone who want to sit beside me. Yes, she is her. She have been my desk mate till now. Day by day we pass together. We are getting closer. Actually, we are really different. She is humble person, tomboy, and funny girl. Not like me, who prefer to have corner side and alone by the wind. I don’t know, although we are different, I’m getting comfort when I beside her. Just on her I tell all of my story. I believe on her so much.

            By her, I also learn how to be happy by another person’s happiness. She is talented girl. In this school, she concerned her career to become Pencak Silat athlete. She made me envy by her achievement.   Like today (March 10^th) , she gave me a “bestfriend big hug”. She knew, that I really want to become a Flag Squad Riser of Malang City. We send the application and we pass each level of selection, together. I imagine, that we can rise the flag together on August 17^th 2013 latter. Till the final selection, I hope that my imagination will come true. But, Allah SWT have another decision for us. I can’t continue my dream, but she had accepted as Flag Squad Riser of Malang City. This is the second time I got this failure. After the announcement, she ran behind me and give me a hug. I still defended my tears. I just said congratulation to her with my smile. But, actually she knew what I feel.

            In the deepest of my heart, I cried. My dream from I was Kindergarten couldn’t come true till now. I entrust my dream by her, to keep the Flag till it raises on the top of post.  But, I said “don’t worry and don’t be sad, Lil. Another chance are still waiting for you.” I have been tried to forget it, and going to my another talented. I still keep that Paskibra is a soul, not only by appearance. This is a time, my soul had tested by the fact.

            A true friend will support each other. When someone getting failure and fall down, they will raise another up. And, when someone getting happiness, they will feel that happiness, too. Now, I feel it by my bestfriend’s happiness. She is Eka Ruliana. Thank you for being my bestfriend, Rul. I hope our friendship everlasting.
