Keripik Tempe

Sudah lama ya… ngga ngelanjutin seri ini…

Tonight is a full moon, at least here it is. I’m no werewol (it could be nice if I was) but I’ve always liked nights with full moon. But tonight, my mellow heart overtake…

Here’s a story:

You’re a high school student. You had a girlfriend. It was a happy life, until one of the neighboring town get bombed to smithereens.

One of your friend died in that attack. His girlfriend grieved but not for long. You spotted her with a new guy.

Later, you knew that your girlfriend was mutated and made into a killing machine for the country.

You met your first love. She seduced you out of loneliness because her husband was away as a soldier.

You had a fight with your girlfriend, and now you’re back to being classmates. Now she too goes away. To the battlefield.

Another of your friend, goes away to become a soldier who’s as good as being dead too.   Said he want to protect a girl he likes, that is your childhood friend.

The girlfriend of your deceased friend earlier, now dies too. Seems like she still grieved about her boyfriends death and rushed to an enemy without thinking.

Your hometown had an earthquake. Many loss, many victims. You’re told that your childhood friend is dying. You met her only to be told that she liked you since years ago. And she dies at your arm.

Now you’re alone.
Your girl is gone.
Your friends.

What would you do?

Cry…?

Grief…?

Seek for revenge…?

Do nothing…?

Now, what should I do? knowing a story like this?

I’ve been told that many of my friends cried when they hear this story.
I won’t cry, and I didn’t cry… I’ve decided to stop crying years ago.
But I guess this story still pierce my heart anyway.

Sadly, that’s only one of many reasons I go mellow today. I remembered a sad past. A tragedy that became one of many regret I had.I read a story of tragic romance. It’s just so perfect.

I don’t know why I keep reading tragic story these few days. Make me feel like I could make my own story that is more tragic than that…

I feel…

Awful…

Note:
The story earlier refer to Saikano ( Saishuu Heiki Kanojo).
Aside from being tragic, It’s a good story in my opinion.
