“Tidak peduli seburuk apa kita di mata mereka dan bagaimana mereka merendahkan kita, apapun yang terjadi di masa depan akan bergantung pada pilihan-pilihan kita. Bukan orang lain. Jadi biarkan saja. Jangan dengarkan mereka.” -Raihan- Raihan adalah penyelamat hidupku yang pertama. Ketika usiaku 15 tahun dan aku hampir mati rasa. Waktu itu, tidak ada kehangatan dalam duniaku. Semuanya membeku. Sejauh mata memandang, aku hanya melihat warna hitam dan abu-abu. Aku tidak tahu apa yang harus kulakukan di dunia yang seperti itu. Sampai suatu hari Raihan datang mengulurkan tangan padaku. "Apa kau keberatan jika aku menjadi temanmu?" tanyanya. Aku menggeleng samar dan kami pun menjadi teman. Sejak saat itu, dunia tempatku tinggal tidak lagi menyeramkan. Pelangi bermunculan setelah hujan. Kunang-kunang beterbangan, dan dunia yang gelap itu pun berubah menjadi tempat yang sangat nyaman. Terang, hangat, dan penuh warna. Sayang, kehancuran datang disaat yang paling tidak kuinginkan. Telalu cepat bahkan sebelum aku bisa bersenang-senang. Raihan menghilang dan semua lampu di duniaku padam. Lalu aku dipaksa untuk melanjutkan hidup dalam kegelapan. Sendirian. Waktu berlalu dan aku mulai terbiasa dengan keadaan –kegelapan, dan kesendirian. Sampai suatu ketika seseorang datang dan mengajakku untuk melihat dunia luar. Aku menolak. Aku memilih untuk tetap tinggal di dunia yang gelap berteman kesendirian. "Kenapa?" tanyanya. Tapi aku hanya diam. Bukan karena aku tidak mau melihat dunia yang dia ceritakan. Dunia luar yang indah dan banyak teman. Tapi aku takut melangkah ke luar. Jika nanti aku mengiyakan ajakannya dan menjadi nyaman berada di luar, aku takut kejadian sebelumnya akan terulang. Aku takut dia menghilang dan meninggalkanku sendirian. Seperti Raihan yang mengubah duniaku menjadi lebih menyeramkan. "Meskipun nanti ketika aku tidak ada, kau tidak akan sendirian. Kau akan menemukan banyak teman di sana." Bujuknya. Aku berpikir cukup lama untuk memutuskan. Tapi akhirnya aku menyetujui ajakannya. Aku melangkah ke luar, meninggalkan dunia yang gelap tanpa kehangatan. Dunia tempat aku mengjalani hidup sendirian. Seperti sebuah festival perayaan, dunia di luar sangat meriah. Ada banyak makanan dan minuman. Udaranya hangat dan wangi. Orang-orang pun menyanyi dan menari mengikuti alunan musik yang menggema di sana-sini. Aku suka tempat ini. “Kau tidak sendiri lagi sekarang.” Ujar seseorang yang mengajakku ke dunia luar. “Kau tidak harus menahan semua beban sendiri. Kau bisa berbagi dengan teman-temanmu di sini.” Aku tersenyum. Merasa sangat bersyukur karena memilih untuk pergi dari duniaku yang gelap dan beku. Di duniaku yang baru, hari-hari terasa begitu panjang dan nyaman. Aku sama sekali tidak merasa lelah meski harus melakukan banyak pekerjaan dalam satu waktu yang bersamaan. Aku memiliki banyak teman yang siap mendengarkan keluh kesahku. Mereka bahkan tidak keberatan jika aku meceritakan tentang masa laluku. Sayangnya, aku belum siap untuk itu. Aku tidak ingin mereka tahu bagaimana aku menjalni kehidupanku di masa lalu. Sendirian, dalam kegelapan. “Kau tidak perlu terburu-buru. Aku akan memberimu waktu sebanyak yang kau mau.” Kata seseorang itu. “Untuk apa?” “Untuk sembuh dari luka-luka lama.” Aku pun mengagguk setuju. Lambat laun aku mulai jatuh cinta dengan dunia baruku. Di sampingku, ada seseorang yang selau mengkhawatirkanku dan dia menjagaku dengan baik. Dia adalah seseorang yang mengajakku ke luar dari dunia lamaku yang gelap dan beku. Aku menyukai kehidupanku yang baru. Tentu saja, sebelum kematian merenggut semua kebahagiaan dariku. Saat aku mulai mempercayai teman-temanku dan hampir membuka diri pada duniaku yang baru.

At the auction, I picked out a diamond ring, planning to use it as the wedding ring with Adrian Hartley. However, no matter how much I bid, there was always someone outbid me, that was the little girl Adrian Hartley sponsored. Adrian Hartley had a helpless smile on his face: "Sweetheart, the little girl really likes these things. Why not let her have it, alright?" I directly lit up the sky lantern in that auction with an extremely high price. Felicia Myers fled the scene with tears. Adrian Hartley didn't blame me, he just left a kiss on my forehead, "Really stubborn like a chili." Until one day, when I unexpectedly received a private invitation. My 356 private photos were going to be auctioned. Adrian Hartley held Felicia Myers's slender waist, "Didn't you like to light sky lanterns? Then why not buy them back yourself."
