"If two points are destined to touch, the universe will find a way to make a connection, even when all hope seems to be lost." That's what Savi Sharma has said in her book. It's true, though. Destiny is like, it is what it is. But destiny is not always about two points to touch. What if there are two people fated to meet with each other, but not destined to be together? No matter how hard they try, their hope and their destiny just could not walk together in the same way. And that's the reality. "I didn't expect that reality can be so cruel and harsh." "Is the reality that cruel? Or maybe it's just because our hearts are not strong enough to face it?" * * * RESTRICTION is the 3rd world in Retrology Universe ||stop plagiarism. respect each other's works. please tell me if you find any illegal copies of this story||

Kata orang hidup gue ini nggak ada progresifnya sama sekali. Stuck aja terus di satu titik. Enak aja! Kalau sekarang kerjaan gue culas dan merepet tentang ini itu bukannya itu berarti gue pakai otak gue dengan benar? Masalah pencapaian hidup, kenapa semua orang seolah harus tahu, sih?! Ini kan hidup gue! Salah satu yang paling bawel ngomentarin hidup gue adalah lingkup pertemanan gue. Gue heran, kenapa ketika umur lo udah lewat seperempat abad akan ada banyak orang di sekitar lo yang tiba-tiba punya misi suci buat ngejodohin lo sama orang random, sampai kepo-kepo tentang kecocokan zodiak? Seolah pernikahan adalah pencapaian hidup yang wajib dicapai, kalau nggak cepat dapat, tandanya lo gagal. Plis! Itu lah yang kejadian sama gue. Keculasan gue pada hal itu membuat semua orang mendadak menganggap gue nggak punya masa depan percintaan yang indah. Sebenarnya bukan karena gue nggak mau, tapi ya karena belum nemu aja! Dan ketika gue dapat project untuk sebuah event, gue harus bekerja sama bareng tim cowok-cowok random yang sukanya bikin kepala gue nggak sinkron! Semua orang udah berharap nasib baik akan berpihak sama gue kali ini karena project itu. Really? We will see! Satu hal, gue dan gue aja nggak pernah selesai. Apa untungnya berharap nasib baik dari orang lain?

That's simply a quote from Bill Russel. Tapi bagi Alya, ucapan itu mendeskripsikan dirinya dengan baik. She is practically 'nothing'. She knows she loves Arga. She also knows Arga doesn't love her the way she does. "Kadang gue iri ama mobil. Lecet dikit, tinggal diketok magic langsung beres. Kalau urusan hati bisa kayak gitu, pagi-pagi buta gue udah antri depan bengkel." -Alya, a successful banker but pathetic in love- But sometimes, everything happened for a reason. Seperti salah satunya ketika tanpa ia sadari seseorang telah masuk ke kehidupannya yang tengah sibuk ia tata kembali. "We are not talking about financial term. I'm not doing a retrocession here." -Radit, a man to die for- * * * RETROCESSION is the first world in Retrology Universe ||stop plagiarism. respect each other's works. please tell me if you find any illegal copies of this story||
