Not Metropolis Girl

Hi.......

Few years a go I remember have a small chit chat with best friends (that time),
We talk about what we want. A question which is half statement that I never forget until today.
A: Fit, don’t you want to be metropolis girl, have your own home and drive your car with sun glasses and scarf in your neck? I really want it. She said.
Every man will stare of me and admire me because of my style and success. And every woman will feel jealous with me since I look very cool and I am modern career woman.

Me: Nope. I don’t want it. Well actually I want to have simple life, working and then married. If needed be a fulltime housewife and mother would be great. I got no benefit being metropolis girl and I am not interesting to that kind of style.

A said, Ohhh Pleaseeeee……
Don’t tell me if you don’t feel tired have an ordinary life?
Don’t you feel sucks being poor girl??
Don’t you want to be rich girl?
You know what, I’m tired to all those things fit, I want a rich man to be my husband, I want to have welfare life, I want to be rich, and no one can stop me to find it, not even my parents.

That time I just stare at her and don’t know what to say.
Finally I said, yes, I want welfare life and I want what other normal people want but I never imagine that I will chase after money and rich guy to get welfare life. I’m happy to what I have. Maybe I’m not fit with metropolis girl title.

Conversation ends after talk many others thing. Time flies and goes by. It’s been 5 years from that small chit chat.
I write this with smile in my face, smile that reflects unbelievable to what happen.
Yes, she’s married and has children, she has welfare life (seems like) but she has no career and no car and no home. She and husband stay in rent apartments outside Indonesia, no car to drive and she became fully housewife and mother. Have no activity other than taking care family and home. She can’t drive and she never drives by her own using sun glasses and scarf in her neck. She can not make her dream come true to become metropolis girl.

And Now, here I am have my own home and car (ya… ya… you are right, I get it using credit facility… hehehehe). I’m not that rich yet.
I drive by myself (You bet that I don’t use sun glasses and scarf as in her imagination)
I become metropolis girl as she wish.
Actually, I never want to be metropolis girl, it’s just not fit with me.

Well, I am still single, no husband and children, which’s mean my dream still not come true.
Somehow I feel that our dream that time is being switch.
She got what I dream of and I got what she dreams of, but I know it’s not true.

Life is unpredictable, our entire dream will come true but which one coming first to your life no one knows.
I love my life and the way GOD give me way to through.
I feel that someday I can have the best thing from HIM.

Congratulation for you my lovely friends. You have cute sons....
