Jika hammock biasa dipakai per orang maupun berdua ketika duduk santai, maka hammock besar bisa dipakai dengan banyak orang. Tidak penuh juga, karena ada kapasitas tertentu dalam berat beban hammock besar. Sudah pernah naik hammock seperti ini?

Fungsi Hammock

Hammock atau ayunan kekinian dengan banyak model, kini sudah menjamur. Bukan hanya model dan motifnya saja, tetapi juga bentuknya.

Pada dasarnya, hammock digunakan sebagai tempat duduk yang juga berfungsi sebagai pengganti kursi. Medianya adalah pohon, tiang rumah, batu tebing, atau media lain yang berpasangan bisa dijadikan pondasi.

Disamping itu, hammock juga berfungsi sebagai tempat tidur penganti tenda. Tergantung kebutuhan dan lokasinya jika kita tengah berkegiatan di luar ruangan (alam, misalnya). Bawaan yang ringkas, membuat hammock mudah dibawa kemanapun.

Pada fungsinya tersebut, berbincang biasanya dilakukan dalam masing-masing hammock. Jika pohon berdekatan, bisa memasang hammock berhadapan. Atau mungkin pula, tandem dua batang pohon berisi dua buah hammock agar berbincang menjadi lebih akrab.

Untuk memaksimalkan perbincangan, beberapa merk hammock, mengeluarkan hammock besar. Merek mengeluarkan hammock tersebut dan menjawab tantangan berbincang tidak perlu berada jauh beberapa kaki dari masing-asing hammock.

Tahun 2015, saat hammock semakin menggeliat di Indonesia, baru sedikit merk yang membuat hammock berukuran besar. Berikut adalah catatan 3 hammock besar awal yang menghiasi dunia per-hammock-an di Indonesia, serta nama bagi produksinya.

Tiga Hammock Besar Awal

Mammock TTTM

Dibuat agar bisa menikmati waktu santai dengan teman-teman terdekat. Berbincang, bercanda, bahkan ngegosip seru, bisa dilakukan di dalamnya.

Ticket To The Moon (TTTM) sebagai merk dagangnya, merancang hammock besar yang disebut mammock. Warna cerah dan standar hammocknya, sesuai karakteristik TTTM dengan lis warna di kedua sisi panjangnya. Biasanya terdapat 2 warna dalam 1 mammock.

Ukuran mammock tersebut, 8×3 meter dengan kapasitas beban lebih dari 250 kg. Mammock bisa bermuatan 10-14 orang tanpa berlebih dengan berat badan standar. Jika masing-masing berberat badan 80 kg, hanya bisa dinaiki sekitar 5 orang saja.

Memasang mammock, harus diatas ketinggian 2,5 meter dari tanah dengan jarak rentang antara kedua pohon mempunyai cukup ruang untuk hammock sepanjang 8 meter.

Mammock diperkenalkan pada Gathering Nasional Hammockers Indonesia pertama kali di Cikole Down Hill Track, Lembang, Bandung, 5-6 Juni 2015.

Hammock Dewa Jingga

Jingga Hammock merupakan produsen hammock kedua yang akhirnya juga memperkenalkan hammock besarnya. Sama dengan mammock, Jingga Hammock juga mempunyai nama bagi hammock besarnya, yakni Hammock Dewa atau disebut juga dengan Kora-kora.

Ukuran panjangnya 6-7 meter dengan lebar 3 meter. Hammock Dewa berwarna hijau army dengan motif loreng.

Hammock Dewa juga bisa dinaiki dengan kapasitas lebih dari 250 kg. Jadi sekitar 10-12 orang dengan berat badan standar, cukup naik diatasnya.

Catatan pengingat. Pernah lihat foto dan diceritakan oleh si pemilik merk, dimana Hammock Dewa diuji coba oleh 7-8 orang teman-teman Hammockers Indonesia. Diantaranya ada Mardi, Panji, Fuad, Akbarulloh, Galih. Lainnya saya lupa siapa.

Hammock Dewa produksi Bandung ini dikeluarkan tahun 2015 juga.

    Big Momma Elve Hammock

Mengikuti seniornya, tahun 2016, produsen hammock bercita rasa lokal Solo, membuat hammock besar dengan sebutan Big Momma. Elve Hammock sebagai pemegang merk dagangnya.

Percobaan pertama kali dilakukan oleh teman-teman Slackline Solo, Solo Hammockers, Hammockers Jakarta dan Hammockers Indonesia di Taman Balekambang, Solo.

Adegan parkour pun dilakukan untuk uji kekuatan Big Momma.

Big Momma berkapasitas lebih dari 250 kg dengan panjang 6 meter, lebar 3 meter. Hammock besar ini bisa dinaiki 10-12 orang saja dengan berat badan standar.

Warna biru dongker dengan lis krem adalah warna Big Momma yang diproduksi pertama kali. Kali kedua, Big Momma diuji coba di bumi perkemahan Segoro Gunung, kaki Gunung Lawu dengan tambahan teman-teman dari SODA (Sodara diatas Awan).

Ketinggian Pemasangan Hammock Besar

Penggunaan hammock-hammock besar ini, biasanya digunakan di saat tertentu. Misal event-event yang berkaitan dengan acara hammock, maupun private camp.

Karena ukurannya yang lebih dari hammock biasa, harus ada orang yang menjaga hamock besar ini ketika dipasang. Mungkin tidak semua orang bisa atau mau naik di hammock sebesar itu.

Selain itu jarak ketinggian pasang dari tanah pun, berbeda dengan hammock biasa (2,5 meter). Jarak tersebut dimaksudkan agar pada saat beban bertambah, jarak hammock besar dari ketinggian tanah, cukup aman baik bagi orang yang berada diatas hammock, maupun bagi hammocknya sendiri.

Pemasangan hammock dengan beban berlebih ini pun, dimaksudkan agar tidak terjadi gesekan antara beban, hammock dan tanah yang bisa mengakibatkan robeknya badan hammock. Tentu saja berkaitan dengan keamanan orang yang berada didalamnya.

Perlu diperhatikan pula untuk tree hugger dan carabiner yang digunakan. Beban suspensi yang dipakai juga tidak sama dengan hammock biasa. Kondisi dan jarak pohon pun harus diperhatikan.

Kini, banyak merk hammock yang juga mengeluarkan hammock-hammock berukuran besar untuk kebutuhan event. Anda bisa mengeceknya pada merk-merk yang ada. Tentunya berdasarkan rekomendasi yang ada.

Jadi sudahkah mencoba naik hammock besar? Umm ya, keep hanging and stay safety your hammock, yeaaa…. (jie)

It Worked - Luke Skywalker Imagine

Rating: PG

Warnings: mentions of war and politics and stuff

Summary: Luke and you were in love with each other. No matter what happened, Luke and you were together. Then, Darth Vader was killed, and the galaxy was saved. It should go back to normal, but nothing did. Luke was a hero, and being a well-known hero came with consequences.

Word Count: 4046

There was no doubt about it. Luke Skywalker was famous. Whether he liked it or not.

You gulped down your worries as you watched your husband surrounded by crowds. You had promised him that the crowds would thin out as the years passed by, but you didn’t know it was a promise you couldn’t keep.

You caught Luke’s eyes, and his frown turned into a bright smile. He tried to get away from the crowd, but they were too excited to see him. Talking about how far they’ve come and the time they’ve waited to see the man who blew up the Death Star and killed Darth Vader and established a school for force-sensitive children.

You smiled sadly and let him talk and smile and entertain the people he didn’t want to disappoint.

“Lady (Y/n)?”

You blinked a few times. “Yes?”

“You have a meeting to attend. With the ambassador from Gathna?”

You nodded. “Right. Um, yes, we should attend to that.” You looked over your shoulder. When Luke saw your faded smile, his eyes widened. You had to go.

You smiled brightly and mouthed, “Later.”

Your husband sighed and nodded.

~ - ~

You pulled the pins from your hair and brushed your hands through your hair. It was well past midnight, but negotiations are particularly difficult without Leia. Ever since you decided to commit to the Rebellion full-time, you took her place in the political atmosphere. You’ve learned to enjoy your job, but it kept you so busy that-

The lights were off. The curtains were closed. Your husband was beneath a blanket, cuddling your pillow. You sighed and pressed your fingers to your forehead. You had promised to et to bed earlier, but this new political party, the First Order they called themselves, were giving you a headache. They couldn’t seem to listen to reason, and it took you hours to properly explain the situation in a way they could understand.

It didn’t help that you were still considered new to the political atmosphere.

You quietly prepared for bed. You smiled as you pulled your pillow from Luke’s arms and slipped into his embrace easily.

Luke hummed in his sleep and held you close.

You took a deep breath and closed your eyes.

~ - ~

When you woke up, Luke was gone. He usually got up earlier than you did.  As soon as you were ready, you checked the sky and rushed out. If you could beat the clock, you could see Luke before-

“Lady (Y/n)!”

You groaned internally. Nevermind. You turned around. “I don’t have meetings for twenty minutes.”

“Yes, and I apologize, but the general has more questions about the financial state of-”

You closed your eyes and sighed. “Fine. I’ll speak to him. Where is he?”

As the servant led you to the general in question, you looked over your shoulder and hoped that Luke would pass, just so you could see him before your horrendous schedule took over. Unfortunately, the universe wasn’t kind. And so your day went on.

~ - ~

Luke had paired up the students to spar, and there were other Jedi masters watching them. So he decided to direct his attention to the window into a certain room. He could see you, so beautiful yet stressed. He could see it in the fire in your eyes and the wrinkles between your eyebrows. You were negotiating with many people who didn’t get along and who didn’t want to get along, so it was reasonable.

The person you were talking with shook his head and started shouting.

A loud boom echoed through the building. For a second, everything was still. Luke could hear your voice, stern and deathly serious. “People who disrespect others for trivial reasons are not welcome to the benefits of this agreement. If you want to throw a tantrum, get out.”

Every breathing thing within a mile listened in anticipation. The general cleared his throat, and your shoulders relaxed.

Luke laughed a little. He loved you so much. He reminded himself to get your flowers.

~ - ~

You went to bed after Luke was asleep, but there was a bouquet of flowers on your desk. You smiled and read the note attached. “I love you, and you did brilliantly today. Hopefully, we can run away together soon.”

You smiled at your sleeping husband. After putting the flowers in a vase, pulling the pillow from his hands, and slipping into his arms, you kissed his forehead. “I love you, too.”

~ - ~

The next day was the same. Except when Luke woke up before dawn, there was a stack of papers on his desk. A note read, “I took care of all your reports for the next week! Maybe we can run away together soon. I love you, too.”

Your husband smiled at your sleeping form, clinging to his pillow and hogging all the blankets. He pulled the blanket up to your chin and kissed your forehead. “I love you so much,” he whispered.

Then, he went to work.

~ - ~

There was trouble brewing on the other side of the galaxy. You were scrambling, going from meeting to meeting to figure out how to face a new threat, while your husband and his sister were getting ready to lead assaults.

You rushed out of your meeting, your skirts hiked up above your knees. By the time you reached the loading bay, you were out of breath, and Luke was just about to board his ship.

He beamed when he saw you. He dropped the gear in his hands and rushed to you. He pulled you into a tight hug and closed his eyes.

You wrapped your arms around his neck and buried your nose in the crook of his neck. You barely saw him, but this… again. There were tears burning in the back of your eyes. “You don’t have to go,” you whispered, even though it wasn’t true. You pulled away slightly and sniffed, “you could form plans and let Leia lead the assaults. You can come to meetings with me-”

“(Y/n).”

“And help me negotiate and make speeches and arguments-”

“Sweetheart-”

“You can stay,” you finished. He couldn’t. He was Luke Skywalker. He needed to go and help others out in the field like he always did. He was meant to lead assaults. He couldn’t just sit in a room and talk. He needed to pilot a ship and give orders and be the hero everyone knew he was.

Luke let out a breath. He held your cheeks and leaned his forehead against yours. “You know I have to do this.” Tears fell from his eyes. It broke his heart to leave you. At least with his regular schedule, he could come home to you. He could leave gifts and notes and find the same from you, but out there, he couldn’t check up on your regularly.

You nodded as tears streamed down your cheeks. “I know.” You inhaled deeply and rubbed his cheeks. “I just miss you.”

Luke scoffed. You shouldn’t miss him. Not when you lived on the same planet, in the same temple, in the same room. “What am I doing? What are we doing?” He laughed and held onto your hands. “When I get back, we’re going on a vacation. I don’t care what anyone says.” He kissed you quickly. “I want more time with you.”

You smiled. More time with Luke? You beamed and threw your arms around him again. “That sounds wonderful!” You pressed your lips against his and pulled him closer and closer.

Luke giggled against yours lips. He hugged you close as he kissed you and even lifted you off the ground. He laughed again and pulled away so he could spin you around.

You yelped and smiled. When Luke put you down, you rested your forehead against his and kissed him once more. “Come back safe, ok? If you don’t, I’ll kill you and the person who did it.”

Your husband nodded. “I wouldn’t expect anything less, my love.” He kissed you again. Then, he ran to his ship.

You didn’t leave the landing bay until he was just another star in the sky.

~ - ~

“Leia!” You threw your arms around your sister-in-law. “What are you doing here?”

She shrugged. “Just about to discuss plans with another planet in the star system over, but my fleet needs to restock.”

You tilted your head. “According to your messages, you restocked two days ago.” You shook your head. “You’re too clever!”

“Don’t tell anyone. They’d be too intimidated.”

You looked around at the whispering groups of soldiers and guests. You leaned in close and whispered, “I think they already are.” You pressed your lips together. “By any chance, have you heard anything?”

The woman sighed. “If I did, it would’ve been the first thing I told you. Last I heard, Luke won against an unknown Sith, but whoever it was is still out there.”

You gulped. Luke was fine. That was what mattered. What you didn’t tell Leia was that you had already known that. You had gotten news about the fight a week before. You were still worried for him. A lot could happen in a week. Spirits, he lost in hand in one night. A week could mean a lot of things.

You shook your head. “Everything was so peaceful months ago.”

Leia leaned her head back and looked around the room. “Well, one day, we’ll stop running. Settle down somewhere. Live in peace.”

You gasped. “Speaking of which, where’s Han?”

“That thing?” She waved it off. “He was being stubborn.”

You raised your eyebrow. “I bet you two will be back together in a month.”

She scrunched up her nose. “Who said that?”

“Me. A year ago. I won the bet.”

She pushed you away and laughed. “I have to restock!”

“Sure you do!”

~ - ~

The Sith Lord was defeated. The news came to you a few weeks before. Luke still wasn’t home. You had a lot of work to do. Since the Sith Lord was defeated there were planets that needed care, refugees in need of relocation, and so many governments in need of agreement and compromise and everything you needed to help oversee.

You stared outside your window and sighed. Despite lack of news, you knew where your husband was. Coruscant. With the Jedi Council, sorting out things, discussing stuff, and blah blah blah.

“Lady (L/n)?”

You turned around. “Yes?”

“A message came from-”

Suddenly, a familiar friend shoved their way through the door.

“Artoo!” You bent down and hugged them.

“It is so good to see you, Master (Y/l/n).”

You laughed and hugged your other friend. “Hey, threepio.” You thanked the servant and eagerly asked, “A message?”

Artoo stood in the center of the room and projected your husband’s message. Luke smiled at you, and you could feel the tears in your eyes. It had been so long. Then, his voice, oh you missed his voice. “Hello. I’m sorry.”

You laughed. Of course that’s what he’d say.

“(Y/n), there’s a lot to do with all the chaos, and unfortunately I have to stay for a while.” He shook his head and turned away. Even in the hologram, you could see the shine of tears in his eyes. “I know I promised to take you on vacation, and as soon as I’m back, I will.” He smiled and nodded. “I promise. It’ll be about a month before I’m back, so, please, be patient. I love you.” Luke nodded. “I love you so much.”

“I love you, too,” you whispered.

Luke smiled a little awkwardly before the hologram disappeared.

Once it did, your heart broke a little. It’s been over a year. You sighed. “Thank you, Artoo, Threepio. I, uh-”

“Can we be of any assistance during Master Skywalker’s absence, Master-”

“No, it’s ok.” You sniffed and wiped your eyes. “Please, I need to attend to my duties. I will send a message later.”

~ - ~

It had been two years since Luke left. He had been sending messages, and so have you. However, both of you have been sending less and less. Both of you have been so busy, and it was… it was draining, to say the least. You were away from Luke, and you weren’t sure what to do.

~ - ~

You had to move. The temple you lived in was a target. You had already sent a message to Luke, telling him where you were being relocated. You hugged Luke’s pillow close to you and took a deep breath. One day, both of you were going on vacation.

~ - ~

“Alright, (Y/n), I’m almost there.” Luke smiled at a picture of you and nodded. “I’m coming back.” Then, he was stopped. He stared through the window. He was being held by another fleet of ships.

“I’m Lieutenant Udock. Who are you and what business-”

“General Skywalker, and my wife-”

“With all due respect, General, the planet was evacuated three weeks ago. It is now under the Resistance’s protection.”

Luke blinked a few times. “That’s impossible. I would’ve…” He sighed. “Ok. Ok, I’ll leave.”

~ - ~

You took a deep breath. There was nothing to do except work. Over time, your patience was growing thin. You didn’t want to admit it, but it was true. You could feel the anger and distress festering inside you, but was that really unexpected? It had been over two years since you’ve seen your husband, and he always promised you that surely he’d be back within a month.

Maybe Luke just didn’t know what a month was.

You sniffed and laid down in your bed as tears, angry and sad, trickled down your face.

~ - ~

It was nighttime when Luke arrived. He quietly snuck into the temple and softly asked a few servants for directions to your room.

His heart was pounding, and it didn’t help that nothing made a sound. All if did was amplify his racing heart. He reached your door. Your husband lowered his belongings and took out a bouquet.

When he opened the door, you were sleeping peacefully. There was one thing that was unusual though. You were supposed to be using his pillow, but.. You weren’t. It was as if you had plopped down on the bed.

Luke set down the flowers and observed you. No, you didn’t fall onto bed out of exhaustion. You were comfortably asleep. Just without his pillow. Then, he saw your face. Peaceful in sleep, but the dried tears on your cheeks didn’t help the serene image.

Luke could feel his nerves getting tangled. You missed him. You were mad at him. You deserved to be mad at him! He had promised you two years ago that the two of you could get away from everything, and even after all that time, he couldn’t. You had work, and even with his position and fame, he couldn’t take you away from that. He had a school to build. He had younglings to teach. Both of you were busy, and vacation was not possible. Spirits, what was he supposed to do?

~ - ~

You woke up tired and groggy. You did your usual routine. Check your schedule, wash your face, trip over someone.

You blinked. Why did you trip? You just cleaned your room.

Luke was on the floor.

You rubbed your eyes. You were definitely hallucinating. You have seen Luke in your bedroom before. When you opened your eyes, he was still there. He was curled up against your pillow, breathing ever so gently. He was so… real.

You sighed. Your mind was being ridiculous. Next thing you’d see was Yoda back from the dead.

You closed your eyes and turned away from your hallucination.You opened your eyes and groaned. A bouquet. In a beautiful vase. You rubbed your eyes, and it was still there.

“(Y/n)?”

Your breath was locked in your throat. That was Luke’s voice, and you knew it wasn’t a dream or your overworked brain. No, that was Luke’s voice. Your dreams always featured his voice when he was fully awake. The voice you heard was his groggy morning voice, soft and gentle. You pressed your lips together and turned around. Luke was sitting on the ground, and his eyes were full of tears.

Your hand flew to cover your mouth. It was him! It was your husband. That anger and impatience decided to take a break. He was safe. He was ok. He was with you.

“I’m sorry,” he whispered. Luke stood up and almost reached out for you. He instead opted for fidgeting with his robes. “I promised you something, and I can’t give it to you. I wish I could. I wish I could take you away from all of this, but I can’t, (Y/n).” His tears fell, and he was avoiding your eyes. “I was so stupid, and I thought I could do anything, but-”

You hugged him and sighed as you felt his warmth engulf you. The roughness of his robes and oily hair didn’t bother you. In fact, it made you happier, because you knew he was real. You sniffed and wiped your eyes. “I missed you, Luke.”

Your husband let out a sigh and wrapped his arms around you. He cried into your shoulder. “I’m so sorry. I’m sorry.”

You hugged him tighter. “We’ll talk about it. Later. Now, I’m just glad you’re home.”

Luke shook his head and continued to cry. Later.

~ - ~

It had been a few weeks since Luke came back to you. The two of you went back to the old schedule. Sleep in the same bed and try to see each other to no avail. The only difference was the more extravagant gifts.

“Master Skywalker, your wife has instructed the cooks to cook all of your favorite foods for dinner tonight.”

“I love her. Tell her thank you.”

“Lady (Y/n), your husband convinced his associates to hold the meetings at a more reasonable hour.”

“I can sleep in? Finally.”

“Flowers from your husband.”

“Is that a cart of flowers?”

“Flowers from your wife.”

“In the ship? Impressive.”

Definitely more extravagant. It wasn’t until Luke had been living there for a year that the two of you finally had a break.

You concluded your meeting. Immediately after, you hiked your skirt up and zoomed towards the landing bay. You didn’t stop to rest until you were in Luke’s ship. The place still smelled like flowers from your last surprise gift. Luke was on the floor with a blanket and a single flower. “Hello.”

You smiled and kissed him. “Finally. So, what’s the plan for tonight?”

Luke shrugged. “Stay up for exactly 2 hours and twenty minutes before going back to sleep and reality.” He shrugged. “Sorry, most we could do.”

You smiled. “It’s ok. One day, though, vacation.”

“Of course.”

And so the night was spent. For two hours and twenty minutes, you and Luke were together, talking and laughing and being yourselves. It wasn’t something you could have often, so you tried your very best to make the most of it.

~ - ~

As time wore on, Luke and you gained a few minutes of time with each other before going to sleep to just recap the day and hold each other close. It wasn’t much, but it was enough.  

Then, one message changes everything.

When you got back from meetings, Luke was usually sitting at his desk or in bed. But, he was staring at a video of a child. “Ben Solo?” you asked. “Haven’t seen him in a few years.”

Luke sighed. “He’s strong. Along with other children that are being recruited.”

You blinked a few times. You scoffed. “You need to leave.”

“No one on the Jedi Council can teach effectively anymore.” He turned around to look at you. “(Y/n), I’m the last jedi. I have to teach them.”

“I know.”

“You can’t-”

“Go with you. I know.” You took a deep breath. “Luke, I love you.”

He nodded. “I know where this is going.”

You shook your head as the realization came into focus. You had known for a long time that this was inevitable.

“I love you, too,” Luke added.

You nodded. “I’m always going to love you, but I can’t visit you. You can’t see me.” You sighed and rubbed your arms. “What do we do?”

Luke opened his arms to you.

You smiled sadly and gladly leaned against him.

“I don’t know.” He kissed your head.

For a few minutes, silence. Neither of you wanted to say what was going to happen next. Maybe to delay it or maybe to hope that it was a dream, but it wasn’t.

“Remember me?” Luke offered.

You laughed as tears made their way down your cheeks and chin. You snuggled into his chest. “Yeah.” You gazed at him. “As long as you remember me.”

“Always.”

The two of you kissed softly and sweetly. Just when one of you would pull away, the other with lean forward once more to start another kiss. If only that could keep happening, a never-ending kiss. So Luke wouldn’t have to leave. So you wouldn’t have to stay. So nothing could keep you two apart.

But, you have been apart, and it seems like nothing was going to change.

~ - ~

You and Han were having lunch, joking about that politician that was giving both of you trouble. “You know, if I knew better, I wouldn’t ask, but I don’t know better.” Han leaned forward. “How’s Luke?”

“Away,” you answered simply. You tried to smile, but it ended up looking like the broken pieces of a frown. “You know us. Never really together.”

“Amen to that.” Han shook his head. “I’m just glad we’re all on good terms.”

You scoffed. “It’s the best we’ll get.”

~ - ~

Years later, you were working less. Less meetings, less early mornings, less late nights. You had accomplished a lot, and you still were working to create a new and efficient system for negotiating between different star systems.

You were at your desk, analyzing different forms and papers, organizing what needed to be done.

Then, your door burst open.

“(Y/n)!”

“Luke?” you got up and rushed to him. He was breathing hard, and he had his bags. “What’s wrong? What-”

“I’m sorry.”

“For what?”

“I need to leave.”

“You already-”

“No, you don’t understand.” He sighed. “(Y/n), I can’t keep my promise. Not ever. Something horrible happened, and I would tell you more, but… I’m scared they’ll use you.”

“They? Luke, what’s-”

He grabbed your hands and smiled. “You’re the love of my life, (y/n).” He caressed your cheek and nodded. “You are the best thing that’s ever happened to me, and I hope that when I’m gone, you remember the good things, ok?” He kissed you quickly. “I have to go.”

“Luke,” you whimpered.

He took a deep breath and gazed at you for the last time. “I love you. Remember that. Out of all things.” Then, he was gone.

You were still for only a second, not sure how to react when your absent husband came back to tell you goodbye. Then, you ran after him. You ran through the hallways, trying to catch up with that tail of a robe you had seen. But by the time you were outside, he was nowhere in sight.

“Luke!” you yelled. “Luke, come on.” You wiped your eyes and pulled at your skirts. “No, Luke.” You covered your mouth and shook your head. He was gone.

~ - ~

You were famous. Whether you liked it or not.

The legends of Luke and Han and Leia and you were getting out of hand. Some said you were all heroes, gifted with the Force. Some said you were all maniacs, who were stupid enough to do the things you did. Some said you didn’t exist.

The last one was the one you hated most.

“Luke Skywalker is an amazing man,” you told the rebels. “Whatever you hear about him now, I can bet more than half is false.”

“You speak so highly of him,” a rebel commented. “Surely, it wasn’t easy.”

You gulped. Then, you smiled. “It wasn’t, but we made it work. We love each other, Luke and I.” The rebel didn’t look convinced, so you lied once more. “And it worked.”

One request is done!!!!

SPORTOURISM - Pendiri Hammockers Purwakarta Misbahul Ulum berharap, di tahun kedua semakin banyak hammockers yang bergabung dan semakin sering membuat kegiatan di alam terbuka.

Komunitas Hammockers Purwakarta (HP) berdiri pada 25 Juli 2016. Yaitu oleh dua hammockers Kota Tasbeh, Misbahul Ulum dan Muhamad Ilham.

HP kemudian diresmikan pada 11 September 2016, sebagai salah satu koordinator wilayah (korwil) dari Hammockers Jawa Barat (HJB). Kini HP kompak dengan 42 anggota aktif di dalamnya.

Di tahun pertama, HP langsung aktif mengikuti banyak kegiatan di alam terbuka. Seperti Gathering Nasional (Gathnas) II Hammockers Indonesia (HI), kegiatan water rescue dari Basarnas Jabar di Cirebon, latihan navigasi darat, penanaman 5000 pohon di kawasan Gunung Buleud Sukasari dan lain-lain.

 Selain itu, HP juga memiliki kegiatan rutin yang digelar dua minggu sekali. Yaitu kegiatan menggantung 'Ngagulabed' di destinasi-destinasi wisata Purwakarta.

 "HP didirikan untuk mempererat silahturahmi antar penggiat kegiatan alam terbuka. Mengingat, anggota HP saat ini merupakan orang-orang dari berbagai kegiatan berbeda," kata Misbah kepada Sportourism, usai merayakan ulang tahun pertama Hammockers Purwakarta, Senin (3/10).

Misbah bersyukur karena hingga saat ini HP semakin besar dan kompak. Harapannya, ia ingin semakin banyak kegiatan yang bisa digelar dan diikuti HP.

 Kemudian terus bersinergi dengan komunitas lain. Atau menjalin dan menjaga silaturahmi dengan segenap penggiat kegiatan alam terbuka. [***]
