Reality with You
Elvina keluar dari kosannya menggunakan daster tidur yang sangat tipis. Kedua tangannya sibuk memeluk dirinya sendiri. Kepalanya menengok ke kanan dan kiri menunggu kedatangan seseorang.
Tepat 5 menit, Garett sampai di pelataran kosan Elvina. Déjà vu. Elvina dengan rambut hitam yang terurai dan posisi berdirinya saat ini sangat mirip dengan mimpinya. Garett tersenyum. Berjalan mendekati Elvina dan berdiri tepat di depan sang puan.
“You really are my dream that came to reality, Kak Elv. The D and R” Garett mengarahkan satu tangannya untuk menyelipkan rambut Elvina yang menghalangi wajahnya. Kemudian melepaskan jaket yang dikenakannya dan menggantungnya di pundak Elvina.
“Wow,” ujar Elvina. Wajahnya memerah. “But, didn’t DNR means do not resuscitate?” Pertanyaan Elvina membuat Garett tertawa keras.
“That’s good,” he laughed. “If you’re my DNR, then that’s mean I can’t die without you.”*
“That’s not funny.”
“I’m not here to make you laugh. I’m here to make you my girlfriend. So, can I get an answer?”
“Well…” Elvina menatap dalam mata Garett yang tersenyum. “You can and the answer is yes.”
Senyum tidak luntur dari wajah Garett, malah makin melebar. Garett menarik Elvina ke dalam pelukannya. “Thank you. Thank you so much.” Sekilas mengecup puncak kepala Elvina.
note: A do-not-resuscitate order, also known as Do Not Attempt Resuscitation, Do Not Attempt Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, no code or allow natural death, is a medical order, written or oral depending on country, indicating that a person should not receive cardiopulmonary resuscitation if that person's heart stops beating.
So, what Garett actually means is that if Elvina is not around him when he loses consciousness then people can help him. But, if Elvina is there when he loses consciousness then people will not help him. In conclusion, he can die with Elvina on his side.
