My friend, I usually call Jack, who likes ornamental fish. Behind his house, near the wall of the paint shop he works for, there are five fibers that hold water. Which contains only two fiber fish. One is a jet black Guppy, the other is a flaming red tail. Jack keeps fish for fun. He often looks at the fish and feeds him when he is on a break from work.
One afternoon, one of the fibers containing a jet black Guppy caught my attention. At the bottom of the water there is a plastic cup filled with soil that grows a lotus. Small leaves appear calm on the surface of the water. One end of the stalk that sticks out into the air, a lotus flower is blooming. Matching white and yellow looks pleasing to the eye.
Jack said, the Lotus flower only blooms briefly during the day. In the evening it buds and dies. It will grow again another day with the same concept, bloom briefly and then die. Jack said again, lotus flowers have many other types of colors. Unfortunately, Jack only had White Yellow a gift from his friend.

Kawanku, biasa kupanggil Jack, penyuka ikan hias. Di belakang rumahnya, dekat tembok bengkel cat ia bekerja, ada lima buah fiber yang menampung air. Yang berisi ikan cuma dua fiber. Yang satu ikan gupi hitam pekat, satunya lagi ikan Gupi berekor merah nyala. Jack memelihara ikan sebab iseng. Ia sering menengok ikan sekalian memberi makan kala sedang rehat bekerja.
Suatu siang, salah satu fiber yang berisi ikan Gupi hitam pekat, menarik perhatianku. Di dasar air ada gelas plastik berisi tanah yang tumbuh Teratai. Daun-daun kecil tampak tenang di permukaan air. Salah satu ujung tangkai yang menjulur ke udara, tampak bunga Teratai yang sedang mekar. Padanan putih dan kuning tampak enak dipandang.
Kata Jack, bunga Teratai itu hanya mekar sebentar di siang saja. Sorenya ia kuncup dan mati. Ia akan tumbuh lagi di lain hari dengan konsep yang sama, mekar sebentar lalu mati. Kata Jack lagi, bunga teratai punya banyak jenis warna lain. Sayangnya, Jack hanya punya Putih Kuning pemberian kawannya.
