tersebut. August memegang pinggulnya dan berfikir sebentar.
“hem,

sudah berada di angka tiga, dan jarum panjang sudah ada di angka sebelas.
“three
fifty five” ucap Greyson. August berfikir sambil berjalan, memutuskan untuk
melakukan apalagi.
“i

terlarut dalam fikiran, ada segerombolan pemain musik di depan emperan toko. August
melihat sebentar, satu anak muda sedang memainkan gitar, dengan lagu
Summertrain dari Greyson
“hey,

itu. Greyson menoleh, pelan dan tersenyum.

tanya Greyson, August terkekeh, mendengar ucapan Greyson, secara spontan lelaki
itu memberikan gitar ke August. August menerimanya.
“you

ada di gitar itu.
“my heart is stereo, beats for you

“make me your radio, turn it up
when you feel low, this melody was meant for you to sing along to my stereo” ucap
Greyson lagi, August tersenyum lebar, mungkin saja rap ini dia yang ambil,

ucap August dengan lembut, mengimbangkan suara mereka
“and just keep it stuck in your
head like your favorite tune, and now my heart is stereo and just one place for

ucap anak kecil itu. August tersenyum.
“ooooo, ooo oh” iring
August tersenyum, gitar diambil alih oleh sang pengamen. August berdiri.
“my heart is stereo, beats for you
so listen close, keep my thought in every note, o ote, make me your radio, turn
it up when you feel low, this melody was meant for you, to sing along to my
stereo” nyanyi August dan Greyson bersama, seketika, jalanan
menjadi ramai, mendengarkan August dan Greyson bernyanyi, beberapa fans
menjerit, melihat idolanya sedang menyanyi dihadapan mereka.
“o, o o o oo o o to my stereo o oo
o sing along to my stereo” ucap August, Greyson pengamen
kecil itu, dan para pendengar. Semua mendadak sunyi, dan August mengambil solo
ini.
“i only pray you never leave me
behind, because good music can be so hard to fine, i take your hand and hold it
close it to mine, found love was deeply now, you changing my mind”
nyanyi August dengan semangat, sambil menutup matanya, dan menunduk.
“my heart is stereo, beats for you

it up when you feel low, this melody was meant for you, to sing along to my
stereo” nyanyi mereka bersama. August mengambil alih, dalam
nada background, semua orang tersenyum mendengar duet itu. Lagu itu selesai,
dan beberapa orang memberikan beberapa pecahan uang, kedalam bungkus gitar itu.
“more,
more, more” ucap gadis-gadis remaja disana. August menoleh kebelakang. Lelaki
yang memegang gitar itu mengangguk setuju.
“can
you playing payphone?” tanya August, lelaki itu mengangguk, August menoleh,
kedepan, menggamit tangan Greyson.
“I'm at a payphone trying to call
home, all of my change I spent on you, where have the times gone, baby it's all
wrong, where are the plans we made for two?” buka August
dengan senyum yang lebar.
“Yeah, I, I know it's hard to remember, the people we used to be, it's even harder to picture, that you're not here next to me, you say it's too late to make it, but is it too late to try? And in our time that you wasted, all of our bridges burned down” nyanyi Greyson, melepas tangannya, menatap August sambil tersenyum.
“I've wasted my nights, you turned out the lights, now I'm paralyzed, still stuck in that time, when we called it love, but even the sun sets in paradise, I'm at a payphone trying to call home, all of my change I spent on you, where have the times gone, baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?” nyanyi August, menghadap Greyson dengan penghayatan yang August punya. August sambil menggerakkan tubuhnya, dan menunjuk Greyson, saat kata “you” tersebut.
“If happy ever after did exist, I would still be holding you like this, all those fairy tales are full of shit, one more stupid love song, I'll be sick” lantun lagi August, mereka saling bergandengan tangan, dan saling menatap mata masing-masing sambil menyanyi.
“oh, you turned your back on tomorrow, 'cause you forgot yesterday, i gave you my love to borrow, but you just gave it away. you can't expect me to be fine, i don't expect you to care, i know I've said it before, but all of our bridges burned down” nyanyi August dan Greyson bergantian, dengan tatapannya ke arah August, melihat refleksi diri August yang tersenyum lebar seperti itu.
“I've wasted my nights, you turned out the lights, now I'm paralyzed, still stuck in that time, when we called it love, but even the sun sets in paradise” nyanyi Greyson dengan senyumannya yang lebar, sambil tersenyum, menatap tangan yang saling menggamit itu.
“I'm at a payphone trying to call home, all of my change I spent on you, where have the times gone, baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?” masih dengan lantun suara Greyson dan August dengan penuh penghayatan, mereka menghadap penonton, yang merekam mereka berdua, beberapa gadis merekam dengan kamera yang professional.

August tersenyum.
“thank

“i

berjalan menuntun August.
“you
still want to sleep at my pent house?” tanya Greyson memastikan. August
mengangguk. Greyson mengangguk lagi, dan berjalan langsung menuju apartemen
mereka. lebih baik mereka segera ke apartemen, atau tidak August mengeluarkan darah
lagi.
