Once upon a time, when I was daydreaming in my room-sweet-room. Suddenly I heard my cell phone rang.
"Ring, ring!" I was sinking in my musing pose.
"Ring, ring!" I was still imagining many good things to be happened.
"Ring, ring!" the third one, I got disturbed with the kind of sound thus I picked up the stuff unwillingly.
"Yellow ..." I said in lazy, reluctant voice. Hoping that this isn't a joking call or, even worst, a missed call from someone in somewhere with something in purpose.
"Yellow??" responded a voice of a woman, got confused than surprised.
"I mean, hello ... Who is it?" I replied and unconsciously spread my little devil smile.
"Oh, I am the Goddess of Fortune. Am i talking to Miss. Miserably Pathetic?" answered and asked the woman who just said that she is the Goddess of Fortune?? So, no the Goddess also uses cell phone?
"Yeah, you just can call me Patty ..." I said in boring tone.
"Well, Miss Patty, you have been chosen as a lucky girl today. And I'm gonna make your dream come true!" said the Goddess of Fortune or whoever she is. I bet she is a sales representative of certain products from certain company.
"Are you gonna sell something to me, Ma'am?" I got upset.
"No, I'm not. You must believe me, dear. I'm gonna make your dream come true because, over time, you've been listed as unluckiest girl ever, only a dreaming girl. Am I right?" continued the Goddess of Fortune.
"Well, yeah ..." I became embarassed.
"So ... Do you believe in me?!" asked the Goddess of Fortune in lovely tone.
"Okay. I believe you. I must be crazy then. But believe or not, I have plenty of dreams! I want new latest cell phone, I want a digital camera the DSLR one, i wish to be able to go around the world especially to Greece, UK, and Egypt, I want to continue my study (you know education is highly costly today), if I can choose I don't want to fall in love again (although as an ordinary girl I also wish for a prince will come by, but I always not succeed in this love problems), I want to read all day long and buy my fav books and novel as my own collection, I want to ..." I impatiently said in non-stop words with delight, but she interrupted me.
"Wait ... wait... my dear, I forgot to tell you that you only have one dream to be come true..." said the Goddess.
"What, only one??!! it's unfair! I have a lot of great dreams in my head! That's unfair!" I said in not-believing way then I continued, " You know, I'm a normal girl, I'm a human. I have lots of unsatisfied demands. We are always greedy creature from the beginning. Remember?!"
"Well, I do know human. You're fighting against each other, killing each other, wars are everywhere, never-ending disputes, discriminations, high rate mortalities, severe poverties, dirty politic, weapons trade, drugs, pollutions, bla bla bla. This planet is getting old! I'm sorry for you as human!" said the Goddes in angry stressing.
"Uhmm... it's too general, but it's true. However, I'm only a girl, an ordinary girl, a selfish too. I have a lot of wishes!"
"That's why, you have to learn to choose one as your best one" said the Goddess of Fortune and I heard a smile in it.
"It's unfair ..." I repeated slowly and started to think what is the thing I want most. The important one!
"Have you make up your mind?" asked the Goddess patiently.
"Yes, I think just want to make my mom happy ..." I said calmly, after some seconds of thinking.
There was a moment of silence between me and the Goddess. Perhaps, she got shocked, hey where is the selfish gal?
"Oh, that's so sweet, my dear ..." the she commented.
"And you know what, you can make it real by doing someting hence I will be able to continue my study, I begly wish could be studying abroad, thus I can read and buy books there, become more clever and get my precious title, afterall, I could get a good job and make lots of money." I explained enthustiatically.
"That sounds a great-well arranged plan ..." said the Goddess. "But, I think you'd better just said that you want to be a rich people." she added.
"No, you don't get it. I just want to make my mom happy by making my own f**king money with my own f**king hands, that's all!" I replied with stress on the last words.
"Okay, then, why it should be abroad England? What about your own beloved country?" asked the Goddes later on.
"Oh, come on, there are lots of countries out there with its great long histories, heritages, cultures, places, people, or even writers. I do only interested in books, literature, and culture. Do you know Shakespeare? or Charles Dickens, or many other famous inventors. What about Jane Austen or.. or Agatha Christe?" I almost lost my breath in delivering this impossible reasons.
"Well, that's quite a sound reason ..." said the Goddess got amazed, i hope.
"Thank you, as I said before, I have plenty of dreams in my head." I said in satisfied tone.
"Maybe I ...or we here should consider it first..." then said the Goddess in uncertain way.
"What? You must think it first? You said you're gonna make my dreams come true, and I've told you the way you can make it real easily!" I angrily shouted.
But suddenly I heard a familiar sound near my right-ear. And the voice of the Goddess became fade away.
"Ring, ring!" the sound screamed out. I got confused.
"Ring, ring!" Hey, I'm still talking to the Goddess of Fortune rightnow!
"Ring, ring!" The sound was real!!
I quickly picked up the phone, hoping that the Goddess will be willingly, patiently wait to continue our bargaining.
"Yellow ..." I replied in lazy-sleepy tone.
"WAKE UP, LAZY GIRL!!!" I heard my mom's shout echoed in my head. I immediately wake up from bed, watched the clock showing it's 10 a.m!
"Great! i'm late!" I slapped my forehead and fastly run to the bathroom! I'm already late and I have bundles of works to do!
Looking at the mirror I smiled myself, nothing to lose, at least I still can dreaming!
The End
