La Tahzan for Broken-Hearted Muslimah

Mengapa harus kata jatuh cinta yang berada di depan kata cinta?

Apakah cinta memang selalu identik dengan musibah dan malapetaka?

Mengapa harus ada kata mati yang berada di belakang kata cinta?

Apakah cinta memang selalu menghadirkan segumpal lara dan setetes air mata?

Sejumlah kisah, sejumlah peristiwa, lahir dan tumbuh bersama cinta.

 

Together with Asma Nadia and Lingkar Pena Publishing and the other writers, I wrote the story number 12: The Heart-Breaker.

Hairquake!

Metropop GPU

Sinopsis:

Beter Hair, Better Luck

Andita Soekardi memang bukan si Barbie yang cantik, langsing, dan berambut pirang indah. Ia cuma cewek biasa yang bekerja sebagai guru bahasa Inggris di sebuah institut bahasa asing. Ia cewek normal, impulsif, cerewet, moody, namun baik hati, dan pintar. Ia lumayan pede walaupun berkulit hitam, bertubuh krempeng dan belum punya pacar. Cuma satu yang membuatnya aneh: punya obsesi akut pada rambutnya! Bagi Andita, better hair brings better luck, better love and better life.

Hidup Andita berantakan ketika fotonya masuk ke majalah dan rambutnya disebut sudah out of style. Segala hiburan sahabatnya, Ferry, tidak digubrisnya. Andita malah mendatangi salon tempatnya memotong rambut dengan gaya yang disebut jadul itu, dan menuntut ganti rugi.

Saat menjalani perawatan rambut ganti rugi di salon itulah Andita ketemu Prasta, eksekutif muda ganteng yang lalu jadi curahan hatinya. Kepada Prasta-lah Andita mencurahkan segala unek-uneknya di kantor, proses promosi jabatannya yang bertele-tele, dan nyaris semua cerita dalam hidupnya. Prasta bak Ferry kedua, bahkan lebih.

Tapi kemudian Ricky, sesama pengajar di institut tempat Andita mengajar sepertinya menaruh hati padanya. Jadi, siapa yang harus Andita pilih, Prasta atau Ricky? Apakah benar kondisi rambutnya memengaruhi kehidupan karier dan cintanya?

Right. Finally, my first (individual) fiction novel is published by the Gramedia Pustaka Utama. The novel was edited by Donna and the cover was designed by Eric.

So, guys, I really need your comment on this one. Please please drop some lines and tell me if you like this novel, or you like this novel (hahaha…). Thank youuu…

Love you all!

Kumpulan Cerita Anak

Today I’ve got good news that my first Children Story is published in a book, together with stories from other Blogfam writers. The book is published by Ganeca for school use, only. So, you won’t find it in any bookstore.

The story is about three best friends who support each other during the difficult time. It’s under the title SI ANGKA SEPULUH.

Battle of Idols

Hiiihiiihiii…………

Auuuuuuuuu………

Hihihihihiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii…….

Duk!

“Ouch!”

Hihihi………….

Brak!

“Ouch!”

“Damn!”

         In pain, with a swollen forehead and sore bones, I managed to grab the cell phone from the top of my bedside table, the culprit of my swollen forehead. An SMS just arrived. I took a deep breath and rested my back on the floor. From chest down, I was still strangled by a blanket. Damn! I cursed again. The ghost-sound-like ring tone had almost caused me my life. It was effective to immediately wake me up from my nap, though.

         I unlocked the cell phone and began to read the SMS. It was from Andru.

         Jen, I got the ticket and the back pass. I have persuaded his assistant to give you a photo session with him. Now, you owe me your life and soul. That, and Rp. 400 thousand for the ticket and the back pass!

         Wha…wha…whaaat?

         He got the ticket and the back pass? He got it? Yeah! He GOT it!

         “Yeee… haaa!”

         I jumped to my feet and began to dance. Of course it was difficult with blanket still wrapping my legs, but what the hell. This was the happiest moment in my life! After a year of effort, I finally got the ticket to Zack’s anniversary concert! Oh, this was the most glorious moment of my life! Wait until I told Jess about it. She would go mad and that would also be my wonderful moment. Oh, I loved my life! I couldn’t wait for Jess to come home from her campus tonight.

You call that freedom?

Freedom

Freedom can sometimes be annoying, it may even drive people crazy.
You can have your own freedom, but keep in mind that others have it too. Your freedom is not supposed to tresspas that of others.
