Kios Suara Hati

Beberapa waktu yang lalu pernah muncul sebuah kisah menarik yang ditayangkan dalam berita televisi di Taiwan. Di pegunungan Alishan ada sebuah tempat yang bernama Rueili. Seutas jalan yang menghubungkan Chiay dan Alishan melewati daerah ini.

Di pinggir jalan ada sebuah tempat penjualan sayur-sayuran segar, sayuran yang tumbuh dan mendapat pupuk organik alamiah tanpa bahan-bahan kimia yang dewasa ini disinyalir oleh dunia medis sebagai unsur yang bisa mendatangkan kanker. Di samping sayur mayur, ada juga buah-buahan segar dijajar dalam kiosk kecil itu.

Namun anehnya. Kiosk itu terbuka selama 24 jam sehari dan tak pernah ditutup. Lebih aneh lagi, tak ada seorangpun yang duduk di sana melayani para pembeli. Daftar harga per kilogram dari masing-masing barang tertulis jelas. Sebuah alat timbang terletak di atas meja. Sebuah tong yang dibuat dari kayu ditinggalkan di salah satu sudut. Dalam tong kayu ini terdapat lembaran uang kertas serta uang logam yang dimasukan oleh para pembeli.

Takdir Sukri

Hilir mudik, mondar-mandir, semua bergerak berusaha mengejar roda putaran waktu yang bergulir dengan sangat cepat, pepatah bahwa waktu adalah uang, waktu adalah seperti pisau yang memiliki 2 mata yang tajam dan tumpul, waktu adalah senjata yang harus pintar-pintar di gunakan dsb-dsb, rupanya benar-benar mereka hayati dengan sangat baik, memang siapapun yang tidak mampu mengimbangi cepatnya putaran sang waktu akan tertinggal, tergilas, amblas lenyap di telan masa dan zaman. Tapi apakah sebenarnya hakikat dari semua ini, mengejar sang waktu, mengimbangi sang waktu, menguasai waktu, memanfaatkan waktu, dsb-dsb, untuk apa?.
“Sekian dulu pak, interview kita hari ini, untuk hasilnya bapak akan kami hubungi lagi seminggu kemudian”, kalimat itu masih terngiang di telinga Sukri, sambil duduk di tembok pembatas taman di pinggir trotoar, dia masih termenung, termangu, terpaku dsb-dsb, dia ingat dengan pasti kalimat yang barusan keluar dari mulut sang Hrd perusahaan tadi, itu adalah yang ke 10 atau mungkin malah lebih dia mendengar kalimat itu, tapi anehnya setelah seminggu menunggu, tak ada satupun dari perusahaan yang dia lamar menghubunginya lagi, tidak jelas maksud kalimat itu, apakah dia memang tidak di butuhkan, kenapa harus memberi harapan, apakah itu model baru dari pengusiran secara halus atau kode etik dari para Hrd untuk menolak para pelamar yg tidak memenuhi syarat secara halus.

Prasangka

Dikisahkan, seorang janda miskin hidup berdua dengan putri kecilnya yang masih berusia sembilan tahun. Kemiskinan memaksanya untuk membuat sendiri kue-kue dan menjajakannya di pasar demi kelangsungan hidup mereka. Hidup penuh kekurangan membuat si kecil tidak pernah bermanja-manja kepada ibunya seperti anak-anak kecil lainnya.

Suatu hari di musim dingin, saat selesai membuat kue, si ibu tersadar melihat keranjang penjaja kuenya sudah rusak berat. Dia pun keluar rumah untuk membeli keranjang baru dan berpesan kepada putrinya agar menunggu saja di rumah. Pulang dari membeli keranjang, si ibu menemukan pintu rumah tidak terkunci dan putrinya tidak ada di rumah. Spontan amarahnya memuncak. Putri betul-betul tidak tahu diri! Cuaca dingin seperti ini, disuruh diam di rumah sebentar saja malahan pergi bermain dengan teman-temannya!

Setelah selesai menyusun kue di keranjang, si ibu segera pergi untuk menjajakan kuenya. Dinginnya salju yang memenuhi jalanan tidak menyurutkan tekadnya demi kehidupan mereka. Dan sebagai hukuman untuk si putri, pintu rumah di kuncinya dari luar. “Kali ini Putri harus diberi pelajaran karena telah melanggar pesan,” geram si ibu dalam hati.

Sepulang dari menjajakan kue, mata si ibu mendadak nanar saat menemukan gadis kecilnya tergeletak di depan pintu. Dengan berteriak histeris segera dipeluknya tubuh putrinya yang telah kaku karena kedinginan. Dengan susah payah dipindahkannyalah tubuh putri ke dalam rumah.

Kesederhanaan Sebuah Cita-Cita

Sore yang indah, ditemani oleh bunyi ombak dan semilir angin yang kian beriringan dengan suara daun kelapa yang tak mau berhenti untuk melambai. Suasana tenang disini setidaknya dapat mengurangi rasa penatku. Kudengar decitan kursi roda yang makin lama kian mendakatiku. Kulihat sosok yang memang akhir-akhir ini sering bersamaku di tempat ini. Aku sangat bingung jika melihat ekspresi wajahnya terkadang dia terlihat sangat tenang dan terkadang dia terlihat datar.

“Apa hari ini kau baik-baik saja?” tanyaku padanya karena memang dia adalah sosok yang sangat sulit ditebak, bukannya jawaban yang kudapat tapi hanya senyum kecil yang mengembang di bibirnya. Aku semakin bingung dengan semua tingkahnya, sangat aneh bagiku karena memang dia sosok yang pendiam tak banyak kata yang dia lontarkan untukku.

“Disini sangat tenang, aku menyukainya” ucapku menceracau sendiri, inilah kebiasaanku setiap bertemu dengannya meskipun tak ada satupun respon darinya tapi aku tahu bahwa dia mendengarkanku dan mengerti apa yang ku mau.

“Hari ini sama seperti hari-hariku sebelumnya, tak ada yang istimewa ataupun terkesan semuanya sama dan kau tau bukan hariku selalu berakhir disini bersama senja, berakhir dengan gambar-ga
