Sore kemarin, hujan deras, aku terburu-buru untuk menjemput Izza. Kelasnya Izza sngguh crowded saat itu. Banyak ortu jemput anak dan ada suara Jane nangis kenceng. Sambil membantu Izza memakai jaket, aku mencuri pembicaraan antara Jane (Izza's class mates) dan Robert (Jane's daddy) :
Jane : I don't want to go home!
Robert : But the school will be closed in 2 minutes.
Jane : But I don't want!
Robert : Why?
Jane : It's raining outside. I don't want to get melt on the way to go home!
Robert : But you won't .. I guarantee you, we take a car, Jane!
Jane : I don't want to melt..! (still crying)
Robert : Who told you that..?
Jane : I want my umbrella like Denis'...(crying even louder...).

Beberapa hari ini Izza sama aku lagi suka nyanyi-nyanyi lagu "You can count on me" yang dinyanyiin sam BJ, temennya Barney. Emang lagunya enak. Trus, pas lagi di dapur dan aku nyanyi lagu itu, Izza bilang :
Izza : Mommy, I can't count on you..
Nining : (surprise and bit sad) Oh why honey..?
Izza : Because you are not number..

you can count on me
i'll always be around
i will cheer you up
when you're feeling down

i like you, you like me
we have fun together
when it's sunny, when it rains
in any kind of (3x) wheather!

you can count on me
because i am your friend
we make a happy team
together till the end

you're my buddy, i'm your pal
side by side we're playing
if you ever need my help
On your side i'm ...(3x) staying!
