"Which moment you regret the most in your life; when you meet the one who then be your love one or when he left you once you both broke up?"
I was in my favorite coffee shop, enjoying my green tea latte, once this girl came to my table and asked me that question.
I didn't know her and I never saw her before, not in this coffee shop. I am deadly sure about that since this place kinda "second-home" for me. I spent my eve in this place almost everyday. So, it wasn't difficult at all for me to recognize each person whom going to this place regularly.
"Sorry, but do I know you?" I asked her politely
"Nope in this present life, but who knows we knew each other in our past life.."
I grinned I knew that her answer is sounds weird but I love it.
"How can you be sure that we knew each other in our past life?"
"Well, I said who knows. Can't tell you how, I just feel that we connected somehow. So, may I sit here? I am sure you wait no one,"
She didn't wait for my approval. Yet, she pulled the chair and sat there calmly.
"Good point! Well, at least now I know why you come to my table randomly and give me that such of heavy question. Okay then, let's pretend that we knew each other in our previous life."
"So, you'll answer my question?"
I nodding.
"But you have to tell me first, why you ask me that question and the most important is, I am curious about yours and why that question crossed in your mind?"
She smile on me...
"Because everyone seems busy with their gadget, unless you. I saw you watching the rain outside then you wrote something on your book. So, I think you kind of person that I can talk to. I don't need to know your name, you don't need to tell me your name and I hope you don't mind if I won't tell you my name. Is that okay?"
I nodding, again.
"I don't know why this question crossed in my mind. It just come in sudden, few minutes ago while I keep my eye on you,"
It surprised me! I didn't realized that someone, a stranger, just observe me!
" Wow, that's rude actually but I respect you because you dare to tell me the truth,"
Again, she just smile to me
"So, will you answer my question, now?"
I shrugged
"Why?" she asked me
"Because I wanna know your answer first, then I'll give you mine. How about that? I think it's fair enough since I have no clue at all about you in this present life, so let me know you through your thought. Yet, I'll take it as an exchange since you intrude my me-time,"
"Okay. That's fair enough. Sorry for bothering you. IF I have to choose, then I will say that I regret the day I met him. I think, if I never met him, he would never brake my heart and I won't be suffer, as simply as that," she doubtfully answered.
I look at her closely...
"What??" she asked impatiently
I smiled at her..
"Oh please.., stop! You make me feel uncomfort," she said softly
"Sorry, I don't mean to embrass you. However, If I have to choose between those choices, then I would say that I won't choose any. I love my life. I learned to not regret any single thing that happened in my life, not even when I met someone whom then become my partner in love nor even when he broke my heart. I know it sounds impossible, I won't said it's easy to do so. Yet, it's really challenging. It takes more than 20 years for me to have this value of life,"
"Do you have any experience on it?"
"What experience?"
"You met someone, you sure that he's the one you looking for. You both in such of relationship but then he decided to walked away,"
I nodded
"May I know? Mind to tell me?"
"Why should I? I didn't know you and it such of private anyway," I answered her politely
She shrugged but her eyes kept looking at me expectantly
"Okay, never mind. You don't need to tell me the story. You're right, I'm just stranger. How can you tell a secret to stranger. If so, you must be crazy,"
"Hey, please don't get me wrong. I can't share it because I respect him,"
"Okay.."
"Sometimes, in life, we expecting too much and tend to forget the rule, the simple one; life is balance of holding on and letting go. Sometimes, we have to hold someone on our path, but there's also possibility that things didn't work as we expected and we have to let them go,"
"How about sadness? don't you feel it once you let him go?"
"Yes, I felt it and struggle with it for couple weeks,"
"Only couple weeks? how come?"
"Because my grandpa always told me, once I was child, that there's no point to keep someone on my way if the universe conspire to make them go from our path. The hardest we try to hold them in our way, the more we'll feel the pain. All we need to do is let them go and be happy for it. There must be a reason why they came and crossed in our path. Sometimes it takes time for us to recognize but somehow God Almighty just make it easy for us; He showed us the reason right away. So, what we need most is patient. When the time comes, we'll know for what purpose the came and crossed in our path,"
She stared at me
"I am happy. We have great experienced. Having to know him is one of precious thing in my life. No matter that at the end he decided to walked awad and continuing his life without me. I don't mind. He must have his own reason and I believe the universe has a plan for me, for both us. By letting him go, it helped me to let myself free from suffering. Once you close a door, there's must be another doors ready to open. I always keep it on my mind,"
"That's really touchy. Don't you realized it? Thanks for telling me that story. I'm sure it's not easy for you to tell me that thing,"
I haven't had answered her once she stood from her chair, gave me ahud and walk away.
she left the coffee shop right away.
I froozed on my chair, no idea what should I do then. It's kinda awkward.
Apparently, the oddity still continuing.
Once I ready to left the coffee shop, the barista just ran to me and gimme a paper note.
"The girl whom you talked with asked me to give it to you," said the barista.
I read it, speechless...
"Hate no one, no matter how much they have wronged you. Live humbly, no matter how wealthy you become. Think positively, no mater how hard life is. Give much, even if you have been given little. Keep in touch with the one who have forgotten you, and forgive who has wronged you, and do not stop praying for the best for those who love. Sometimes the smallest step in the right direction ends up being the biggest step of your life"
I didn't know who is she but seems she knew me. I'm sure that she didn't come to my table randomly, she must be crossed in my path by reasons. I'm sure she's kinda answer, a reminder for me, a messager from the universe. I knew that I have to move on..
Thanks to you, whoever you are..
