I was startled from a morning nap when the neighbor's dog barked. Just as I was about to leave, something stuck in my mind. Why did I sleep at night wearing all black?Should not I be sleeping at Amelia's house? Damn. Why did I forget?I suspected. I immediately looked at my desk. There was a pile of money.“Oh! Not anymore," I thought.Then I put the money in an old shoebox. Inside, there was a lot of money that I also did not know where it came from.Indeed, waking up in a state of oblivion, at the same time, there was a pile of money like this was not the first time. In fact, I often experienced it. I was afraid when I forget I had done something worse.

Coming home from Amelia's house, I immediately cleaned myself up. Actually, I intended to meet Julia after Amelia. However, Amelia offered me something I couldn't refuse, so I forgot about Julia.I also remembered that Julia told me to call her back. Previously, I called her, but she didn't answer. She then texted me that she had a guest. If she didn't answer my phone – of course, a video call – it meant that the guest was really important for her to accept.But now, I had to meet her. Brother Quinn said that the Boumeranks gathered at noon. I still had time to spend with Julia.When I got to my room, I rushed to text Julia, asking if I could come over to her house. Luckily, Julia immediately replied to my message."Do you have time?" I asked."I'm going to college," replied Julia, "is there anything I can help you with?"“No, but I would love to meet you,” I wrote. "Could you skip class for just one day?""Wha

123 | The Great Hall

WHILE walking towards the ancient hall, I told Julia about this place. Lamphor village, the location of The Great Trestle, was a coastal area that is thick with Islamic nuances. Grisee Regency itself was famous for its religious tourism destinations.The regency, which now had a population of around 1.5 million, was once the center of the spread of Islam in the past, with the Giri Kedaton Kingdom at its heart.In addition, the coastal area of ​​the Grisee Regency actually had a deep meaning for its citizens. In the past, Grisee was one of the largest cities in the archipelago. The port in Grisee was first established and reached its heyday in the mid-14th century.Chinese sailors called Grisee with Tse Tsun or dirty village while Arab traders called it Qarra Shaik or plug something."It was on the

124 | The Great Lookout

"I don't know what your letter means," Julia said in sign language. "But I'll keep it."I felt, maybe Julia was just trying to hide her feelings for me. Otherwise, why was she crying? I then took her hand back to the car."Where else are we going?" asked Julia."To Matt's Village," I said."Is there something in there?" asked Julia again.“I still want to show you something,” I replied.“What is the name of that village?” asked Julia.“Lookout Village,” I replied again."Unique village name," responded Julia."I'll tell you where it came from when we get there," I said. "And it has to do with love."Julia was silent the whole way along the coastal highway. Then I turned the car to the left towards a higher area. Until finally, the car arrived at a cliff with a lake below.Julia and I then got out of the car. Julia again enjoyed the natural scenery of trees, cliffs, and la

125 | The Memory

JULIA was still crying listening to my confession. I really wanted Julia more than anyone. She was my first love. I had loved her since I was in elementary school."Say something?" I asked in sign language.Julia just looked into my eyes while holding back tears. Her eyes were puffy from too many tears coming out of her eyelids."You always make me cry," Julia said in sign language.I did not understand what she means. Apart from recently, I saw her crying a lot. Before that, she had never cried in front of me. Before this, the last time I saw her cry was when her father, Paul, died when Julia and I were in high school.After that, I never saw Julia cry again until I lay helplessly drunk in the courtyard of a Middle Eastern restaurant. Then she cried again the next day asking if I remember what happened that night."I'm sorry," I said, "I didn't know I was going to cry."Julia then looked at me."Tell me, do you remember that n

I concentrated on focusing my eyes. From the earth, I could see those two shooting stars turns into two eyeballs. I paid more attention. The two eyeballs drew closer and then displayed the form of an angel. Very beautiful."But getting closer, I could see the nymph staring at me sadly. Apparently, I knew the angel. And I had never seen her so in pain. Then I realized the two shooting stars turned out to be tears. I was suddenly sad. In a day, I had made the angel sob twice. And that nymph was you, Julia," I said.Knowing it, Julia cried even more. I felt like she just found out why I was so drunk. Yes, in a day I experienced a series of events that hurt my heart."You always get emotional when you find something you don't like," said Julia in sign language, sobbing.“Do you still want to hear my story?” I asked.Julia nodded.I then told Julia that I couldn't believe she found me in tatters on the restaurant porch. But now, the n

127 | Forgotten History

ALL the way home, Julia was silent while occasionally cleaning her face from tears. I did not think that she would cry like that hearing my confession as well as my story. Most importantly, Julia already knew how I felt about her, even though she didn't say anything.Now, we had to go home because I have to go to Brazil. I was sure Kacey is waiting to hear from me too. My plan, after took Julia home, I immediately picked up Kacey at her house.Arriving in front of Julia's house, she never got out of the car. It was as if she didn't want to leave my side. However, her gaze was straight ahead."We're here," I said.Julia took a deep breath. It looked like she was about to say something, but she didn't.

128 | The Train

All the way to my house. I couldn't stop laughing knowing Kacey was being teased by her papa."By the way, what is birth control for?" I asked Kacey teasingly, "do we really need something like that in Brazil.""Let's talk about other things," Kacey said curtly."Okay. This is my first trip abroad by plane. I'm sure you've flown a lot by plane," I said, changing the subject."Is it true? If this is your first time on a plane, then the taste is the same, only the duration is longer. Tend to be tired from sitting all the time in the cabin,” said Kacey.“Then, what mode of transportation have you never ridden?” I asked."Trains," Kacey replied, "I've never been on a train.""Would you like to hear my story about trains?""Of course," said Kacey."I'm going to start my story about trains of old," I said."I can't wait to hear it," said Kacey.“Nuts! Nuts!” I started the story by im

129 | The Commuter

FROM the outside, the commuter carriages looked full. There were already many passengers standing. But that's okay. After all, I had experience standing on a train. I then ventured to step into the belly of the carriage. The cool air hit my face. Apparently, there is air conditioning in the room. The inside of the carriage is clean. I finally accepted it as reality, not a dream in broad daylight.Because I was worried about the wrong commuter, I idly asked the young passenger next to me."How long does it take to get to Bogor?"He replied, “Two hours, bro.”"Then I'm on the right train," I said to Kacey.Kacey just laughed at my joke.The evening commute was full of young people who went up and down at each stop. Maybe they are students, young executives, or salesmen who come home late. Elderly people can be counted on the fingers.Productive age dominates. They seem to be used to commuting. Some are busy swiping the touch
