Being Rejected, Huhuhuhu...

My novel was being rejected...

I received this message this afternoon, when I was eating with Daniel, Irwan, Novia, Amelia, and Apribelle. My mom texted me and said this, "the publisher can't publish ur book, but they gave some suggestions..."

I was stunned. I've been waiting for today for SIX MONTHS! HALF OF THE YEAR! And what I got? Being rejected! Oh, God...what's wrong? I sat down with my eyes on my phone Icd and I stood up, walked towards Novia and gave my phone to her. I said nothing and she read the message. I sighed, and I took back my phone after that.

I didn't want it, swear, but I couldn't help it. I cried a bit, well, a bit only...because even Daniel and Irwan didn't realise it (or I think so). God, I hate this! It felt worse than broke up with my boyfriend or when Nimo hurted me for the thousandth time.

But then I realise that it's not the end of the world. When I reached home, I texted my mom and asked her to send me the e-mail address of another book publisher. And just now, I sent my script to the publisher.

Huhuhu...I hate waiting...but I'm sure that I'm not going to wait in vain...or if I use Icha Rahmanti's words, I'm not going to wait for Godot, heuheuheu...

Six months from now...just let it flow...don't know what's gonna happen next...
