i also want to express my gratitude for bts. thank you bts for holding the space for deep feelers and thinkers to unite in this writing realm, even if you never know the profoundness of it. you left a permanent mark, impacting many of us like no other. and you, armys, are always one of a kind ….
          	
          	i don’t write around bts anymore, but there will always be certain feelings that i had gathered from special, special experiences with them, be it personal or shared, and i will always bring them with me.

mungkin ada pembaca lamaku yang baca ini …. mmm in case. aku mau bicarain tentang salah satu ceritaku, praying mantis (belalang sembah). udah beberapa kali kubaca ulang naskah awalnya, tapi di setiapnya, aku merasa ga klik lagi. ya, aku bisa mencoba merasakan apa yang kurasakan saat menulis itu dahulu kala, tapi tetap ada diskoneksi. aku sendiri takjub sama pikiran-pikiran lamaku yang “luar biasa”, literally di luar kebiasaanku dan tendensi normalku haha …. aku ga tau menyerap apa waktu itu.  mungkin memang hidup lagi keras aja rasanya waktu itu. sejujurnya aku masih mau mempertahankan premis ceritanya yang indah dan pedih ? jadi kemungkinan akan aku sisakan atmosfer bakunya tapi pendekatannya aku rombak total ? i can’t wait to see how it goes. most likely … it’d morph drastically. i still feel sorry. even though i know it’s my free will
          
          
          aku masih ingat kalian yang meninggalkan kesan mendalam terhadap cerita ini: ray, merma, dan ada sejumlah pembaca yang sempat menunjukkan apresiasinya di akun lamaku. aku masih ingat ada satu pembaca yang bilang dia sampai bela-belain ke warnet biar bisa baca ceritaku itu, and oh dear. it means everything to me. i’m so touched by deep appreciation some readers gave me. i didn’t expect words, specifically my words, can reach some of you really deeply (while i’m aware that words can reach us really deeply. yes, a strange paradox). thank you for nurturing my spark at the time ..! it never goes unnoticed. i just can’t press enough how thankful i am to be read. to be read is so special. it can be the most intimate gesture in the world. so, thank you. really thank you. readers are lovers {}

lately i miss many things. ramadan tends to do that. i miss wattpad in all its glory so much. i look at my ancient screenshots longingly. although i know there’s no point in going back, i still urge myself to taste it, the ghostly sensation of being there in the old timeline, tick tick, vivid only for a moment, then dwindles. a lot dwindles actually, even moments i am in yesterday. i eternally aim to capture the in-betweens, record the slippery. i’m greedy for maintaining the auras of time
