Time for Intermezzo :)

Just Wanna Be Your Self

“Me” “Ohh, how fat I am??” 

Vira is gloomy lonely on her sitplace, hold up her chin with her hand. Looking around, so silent here. Vira don’t know what she fault is. She feel that these days she has been keeping her diet pretty tight. But how come this her dear cheek is still stretchy. And a lot of people who take a look at it want to pinch it. It makes her more resentful. It is resentful, resentful, resentful. Veeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrry resentful. While, she really want to be an actrist. “What’s my fault?” Weep.. weep... did the fault come from the descendant from her beloved father and mother that makes her cheek really puffed-up.
She don’t think so. They are not fat either. But if Vira really think about it again, her fat was really unfortunate. She remembered truely when she was child. 

Aproximately when she was five years old, her friends cames to her house and all of them were so glad to see her face. They seemed like they got a new toy. What else if not her cheek that passionated them. They pinched the left cheek, then pinched the right cheek. 

They were so happy then. Laugh and laugh. They did not know that the owner of this cheek felt a suffering on both the body and heart. Until she cried. Only then stopped changed to caressing. “Choop choop the sweet child should not cry please.” It was more serious when she was in Junior High School. She remembered truely that she had a friend named Adi. A child that according to her view is one of the naughtiest on her school. It is indeed generally the child was good, not smoking, obeyed to school rule, and even the national ideology and UUD ’45, never skipped class even once, moderately clever and high-achieving. 

Then why she said that he is naughty? YES, BECAUSE of that. He liked to pinch her cheek so much. If she daydream a little she was pinched. When she was careless a little she was pinched. His pinches were consecutive and consistent. Everyday. Three times a day. After eating before sleeping (how come it looks like taking medicine?). Yeah no matter what it was really often. She thought when she went to Senior High School, the sympathetic experiences will be ends. Moreover she entered to the Senior High School that was famous enough. She was convinced, the students were definitely very clever, well, and very devout. She look her self in front of the mirror happily. She is glad with her good nouse form, her shiny eyes, her long hair, and of course with her cute lip too. 

She can continues her diet pretty tight, so she is not too fat again. And she can doing her mission to be an actrist or a model girl. “Whatever happened, I’ll be an actrist!” She said so sure. She don’t want hear Arini’s advices. Arini is Vira’s single sister. Arini is an actrist, she said to Vira that to be an actrist is needs so much mental and skills. Vira’s ages are 15th years old now. But Vira don’t see another minds to pending her idea. Vira wants to be a popular actrist, likes Laudya Chintya Bella or Agnes Monica. She is telling her idea to her close friends, Mia and Tata. Their close friends are always support Vira’s idea. As usual, Mia and Tata only can says “yes” to Vira. After that, Mia and Tata helps Vira to find any informations about cinema casting or advertisements. “I must trying in every time,” said Vira principely. Finally, she get a casting job. A production house was needed an actrist for a FTV, responded Vira’s portfolio. Vira’s first casting is not good as her dream. She is coming late because a jam. Casting must be pending. Vira was really disappointed. The following day, she don’t want repeat her fault again. She doesn’t come late again, she get 3th for her running number. 

When her name was called, she walk confidently. She’s sure that the producer will be spelled with her face. Minutes to minutes in casting room, Vira is surprising. The producers were showed dissatisfied expressions to her performances. Vira’s so glad, until Tata and Mira are sharing a news on their school that Vira will be an actrist. A lot of people were so surprising because they’re know that Vira is fat. After a week, there is nothing information from production house. Finally, Mia and Tata are conscious to Vira’s conquered. Vira’s so shy, really shy till she’s sick! Mira and Tata comes to Vira’s house, they want to see their close friend, to support Vira. 

When they’re arrive at Vira’s house, Mbok Sumi opened the door. Waiting for Vira is coming, they are looking around the living room. There are many family photos on the living room’s wall. “Sora Arini!! Viraa . . . . Why you are never say to us that Sora Arini is your older sister. She is my beloved actrist.” Tata and Mia surprissed. Since that time she is conscious how important she can show her skills. She is conscious too that Arini’s advice is true. Mia and Tata were so happy to hear that. They were embranced each other. “That’s what friends are for!” they shout loudly.
