Homes, Hopes, and Revelations.
The first words I heard when I stepped my feet into Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport is:
Anassuntili’ jinne Merpati heh!
And then I realized I was home and I loved it!
The thing about being home to me is, all the people around you speak exactly the same language and most probably in the same dialect as you do. Unlike in Bandung where most of the time my brain has to work extra hard translating and interpreting what people are saying, here at home I could just lay back and enjoy!
I believe the situation is analogical to being in love. When you’re in love, your heart is at ease and it’s easy to interpret all kinds of emotions because you’re actually feeling it and you can actually understand its language.
Yeah yeah I’m in love. Sue me!
