Samuel Pradipta itu memang tergolong ekspresif. Kalau senang pasti senyum dan tawanya yang menular itu akan tertampang sepanjang hari layaknya orang bodoh, sama halnya kalau dirinya sedang lara, wajah murungnya pasti akan membuat orang-orang disekitarnya terlarut juga.

Tapi kalau perkara asmara sih kayaknya hal ini gak berlaku deh, dia terlalu abu-abu untuk ditebak. Padahal love language-nya physical touch, tapi gengsinya yang selangit. Which is such a shame because i just like it when he’s being clingy towards me.

Maybe this is one of a thousand reasons I'm surprised when he called me in the middle of the night through a zoom meeting. Wanna know what’s even more surprising? He insists that we should watch Letters to Juliet waktu jarum jam dengan jelas menunjukan pukul dua dini hari.

It was one of my favorites movies tapi masa jam segini banget nontonnya. Our parents probably sleeping after thought that we were already in our bed, exploring our dream but look at where I am now.

You can clearly tell that Sammy won because dang, I would never win against him. Also, it’s a rare sight because Sammy jarang banget mau diajak nonton film romance begini unless it was my red day.

By the time we reach the scene where Claire asks for Sophie’s permission to read the letter she wrote back as a reply to Claire’s letter 50 years ago, suddenly Sammy paused the movie. I was about to protest but then he turned his mic on, and what happened next surprised me.

“When Sophie wrote back to Claire’s letter, it took fifty years for her to came back and find the love of her life again. She came back after everything they’ve been through because of how coward she is. But, I don’t wanna be a coward like Claire. I don’t wanna wait for another 50 years or so in vein asking myself why the fuck did I let you wait so god damn long if I was gonna ask you the same question. So, are you willing to go to the prom with me, princess?”

It’s a yes, it’s definitely a yes from me.
