A Worth It Love

The story began in a white house where a beautiful girl woke up starting her day. Her name was Lily who was known as really bright and smart girl in her village. Starting her day by doing chores was definitely her routine before she went to school. Her school was quite far from her house. It was located in a nearby town. And To reach the school, people need to pass little rain forest. It caused not that many villagers went to school. 

Lily was not only known among villagers for her brightness but also her really strict family. Although they lived in the village, they have more moderate thought in seeing education than villager for general. It was quite good but it also led Lily into trouble.

In the deep of her heart, Lily was in love with a young farmer named Jade Huston. Nevertheless he was very nice looking with strong muscles. Unlike Lily, Jade did not go to school since he came from a poor family. Jade was a hard worker. Although he worked in others’ properties people reckoned his good working. Mostly the girls in the village adored him including Lily. Not to mention that Lily was always looking at him whenever she passed his farm. Unfortunately Jade did not know that Lily was in love with him. 

One day, Lily was ordered to continue her education in the Town. She definitely loved the idea but she still worried about her feeling to Jade. Even she was afraid to tell her parent that she was in love to Jade. She knew at the time she told the truth, her family would neglect her feeling. “What happens my dear? You look unhappy with your future education” said her father. “No Papa, I just think it maybe will be that hard to separate from you all” said Lily lied. “Oh my lovely Dear, we will visit you very often. So no worry, alright!” said her father enthusiastically. “Thank you Papa, I think I feel better” said Lily. 

Lily was accepted in the Julian College, one of the most prestigious colleges in British. By the day she was about to go to the Town, her family held a little farewell party. Some of her friends were invited. Surprisingly Jade came, too. 

“I am very happy to say to you that my lovely daughter, Lily is going to take medical course as her major” her father starting his words. Lily was blushing and smiling as well as bunch of applause was welcoming the speech. I wish you a very luck there sweet heart” ended his father. At the moment she was about to enter the cart, Lily was staring at Jade, her first love. Jade was looking her as well. They were staring for minutes without any word left.

In the way to the town, Lily was hardly thinking about the meaning of his sight. Lily was just able to guess that maybe Jade was really sad to let her go. “Maybe Jade was love me…said Lily under her breath. 

Throughout the year, Lily was really busy with her college stuff until she did not have to send a letter to jade. However in the deepest of her heart, it was only for jade. Lily spent four and a half for her medical school. She was inaugurated as a doctor and could work soon.

“Papa, I have graduated” said Lily happily. “You are really my lovely and my proud, dear” said her father. 

“Papa, may I go to see the farm? It was so long since the last four year I saw it” said Lily. “Sure, my dear”. But come back before dark, will you?” asked her father. “You have my word Papa” said Lily without any doubt. 

Lily was really happy. She was so glad standing and feeling the breeze in the farm. From far she saw a woman and a little girl walking ahead to her. “Hi, what a lovely afternoon” said the woman softly. “Oh, yeah, it was so nice, anyway my name is Lily. And you? Asked Lily. “I am Elizabeth, Elizabeth Huston. Lily’s pleasant was only last for a minute by the time she heard it. It meant that jade was got marry. The woman in front of her was his wife and the little girl was their daughter.

“Lily! shouted a man behind Lily. Lily was turned around and saw Jade. “Papa! shouted the little girl. Finally, Lily knew that actually Jade was in love with her. They were just too afraid to say their feeling each other. It was what made them separate. It made Lily realized that actually Jade, her love was worth it to be achieved for.

My Tough Decision and Let’s Pull an All-Nighter

I want to say good thing. I want to write good thing. I want to read good thing. All thing I say good thing is I want to stay debating. Yes, Memei was right that I will survive. That I have to use this chance. That I must not lose this chance.

I am not allowed to waste the chance to the thing that I even haven’t seen it, haven’t felt it and more important is haven’t tried it. I won’t sacrifice the chance to go to BAWOR for myself being loser.

 I say, debate is my entire life. Look Septima, you still have time, you have capability, you have great friends, moreover you’ve got your exact purpose.

Tonight, I commit to myself and Memei that everything they both said were right. And Memei was really open my eyes. She said “Septima, you cant waste this opportunity. You cannot build yourself forever in debate competition. You have to realize that we have to give the chance to the next young EDSers”  I got it that this is my time. I have to be the best and of course do rehearse. WTF with the other arguments which against it. Memei was absolutely right. And I think it was so freaking cool argument. 

I am able to see the bright side. Even though I should pay for about IDR600.000 to join this competition, I say it doesn’t matter. I know I am lack of money. I could say to you that I only have IDR100.000 in my account which is split into two sections. The first section is IDR50.000 in my purse, and the rest IDR50.000 is in my account. I know it is lame but I believe a big opportunity and experience will be waiting for me in Purwokerto. 

For the last but not least, I love you Grandpa who really support me even thou you also worry about what is we say ‘ a classical ‘ reason. Let’s do the best and I know Allah will do the rest.

Keep debating because I say that debate will put me in the very indisputable honor of my life.
