The First Competitor!

Never knew I have competitor (and potential partner) in this little business. But today I just got an email from them! Looks like they want to share their projects with me. Wow wow, this is gonna be interesting, I guess.

Dua perempuan Iran ini datang ke Jakarta dalam rangka pameran bisnis, entah apa jelasnya saya juga kurang tahu. Cantik khas Persia, semua orang di sekitar menyempatkan diri melirik mereka. Yang satu berambut lurus hitam kecoklatan, yang satu lagi keriting pirang. Masih sepantaran saya juga usianya. Mereka memamerkan fotonya di hotel dengan kemeja lengan panjang dan hijab selendang seperti lazimnya anak muda Iran. Tapi mereka sendiri tidak memakai hijab saat saya mengobrol dengan mereka.
"Ini karena ada manajer kita di hotel. Jadi kita pakai hijab," terang si rambut keriting.
Si rambut lurus lalu meraih tas kulitnya, mengeluarkan selembar selendang putih dan memamerkan ke saya.
"Nih hijabnya, kita pakai lagi nanti kalau balik ke hotel."
Tawa kami pun meledak.  

Never thought I would have this opportunity to witness the real example of stealthy freedom of Iranian women, right in my city.  (And yes, they knew Masih Alinejad and got surprised when I said I know her page on Facebook.)
