Impossible Love
10. The Foreigner's Name

In 1991, the,

Yes, it's strange but real, because suddenly Fredi is now in an era where his parents were not even married,

Thirty-two years ago, a time that was far from Fredi's birth,

"Son,"

The woman who behaved like a good mother seemed to gently shake Fredi's arm which again looked dumb as a dazed man,

"Follow with Mbok Sur to clean up, after that eat and rest,"

The woman repeated,

Fredi finally nodded quickly, he then walked towards the back of the house which leads to the bathroom and also the toilet and well,

"If the hot water is less, Mas Dedi just use the hot water in the other pot,"

Mbok Sur said, women who are much older than women who are mothers of people named Dedi,

The dedi?

Who the hell is he?

Why did Fredi think they were Dedi?

Was it so similar to them that he was suspected of being Dedi?

Then where is he going?

Where is the real Dedi if Fredi is currently in his place?

Fredi's head was filled with so many hard-to-answer questions,

Fredi went into the bathroom with a small ceramic wall mounted blue neat and clean, clean,

In the bathroom there is a pool and dipper matching colors, some clothes are also there, including a large brown towel, too,

Fredi then cleaned himself with warm water prepared by Mbok Sur in a bucket of red tub, Fredi bathed with a dipper with enthusiasm because since morning he departed from the city to the village of Slamet, he hasn't had a shower yet,

After bathing with warm water even though only one bucket of tub, Fredi also felt his body was now much fresher,

Fredi came out of the bathroom still with shorts that he was wearing earlier, only his body there was covered in a large brown towel, then he walked into the family home of a person named Dedi, and then he walked into the family home,

Ah I don't know, Fredi actually felt guilty if he had to pretend to be Dedi, but he was still confused about who to explain to and he was still confused why he was thrown into 1991, but he was still confused,

Maybe it's a dream, or maybe it's just a hallucination,

Fredi walked in and got Mr. Siswoyo, the authoritative-looking man standing up while talking to the woman who was Dedi's mother, who was his mother,

Seeing the figure of Fredi entered accidentally, Mr. Siswoyo then immediately silent even though he was talking to his mother Dedi, then he was silent,

Responding to the change in expression of the husband, his mother Dedi then turned to the emergence of Fredi who now looks smiling to both of them,

A smile that is actually normal for Fredi because he is used to doing it, but somehow makes the two parents even like surprised to have to look at each other, but inexplicably,

Ah, what should I do?

Greet them?

How did Dedi greet his parents?

Mammy? mamma? Mommy's? mamma? Mother?

Ah and to his father, what is his call to the very authoritative Mr Siswoyo?

Daddy's? Mister? Papi's? Papa's? Or Dad?

Hiiish, Fredi is so dizzy at the moment, though,

"Son, tonight you need to get out of town, I will take you briefly to the station, you can stay alone at home with Mbok Sur? Isya, I'll be home, by now,"

His mother said to Fredi,

"Well, it's fine, ma'am, sir, be careful, yeah,"

Said Fredi, who then strangely flicked his two fingers like a Korean oppa forming love,

Of course, it makes the two parents more confused with the behavior of the child who they think is very strange,

"Mas Dedi, the room has been cleaned and can be for rest,"

Suddenly there was a sound of Mbok Sur from the front of the room which was not far from the position Fredi was standing,

Fredi turned to Mbok Sur and looked as if he nodded and thanked him,

"Thank you Mbok, thank you,"

Said Fredi polite and sweet, which made Mbok Sur was like surprised to see his only child the master behaved so, so,

Fredi then went to the room that there was Mbok Sur in front of him,

Mbok Sur, the elderly woman allowed Fredi to enter the room whose door was closed by a long curtain of clean cream color with the fragrance of soap, makeup,

The door of the room was made of wood which modeled like an old door consisting of two cupped door leaves,

Fredi went into the room, the room with the floor is still from a tile of gray but clean and shiny because surely Mbok Sur diligently mopped it, and the,

In the room there is a wooden bed, a wooden cabinet and also a wooden study table with wooden chairs as well,

The mattress is already from foam, covered with brown sheets batik motif cap typical coastal motifs pekalongan,

The room is simple but very comfortable, the men's room is really clean and far from messy, unlike Fredi's room which has been like a ship upside down and then kicked into the mountain, so the,

But... Fredi went into the middle of the room while chirping, but it was not all that made Fredi amazed, but the number of Nike Ardilla posters that decorate one side of the bedroom wall is what makes Fredi amazed,

Yeah, it really feels like he really was in 1991, really, moreover, he saw in the corner of the room there was a cassette tape and a small shelf containing tape cassettes dominated by Nike Ardilla tapes, of course,

"Mom's gonna have Man Warto clean these posters if you want, son,"

Her mother's voice Dedi suddenly sounded from the direction behind Fredi,

"Oh Ma'am,"

Fredi turned to his mother Dedi,

"You're just cleaned up now or..."

"No ma'am, why do we need to clean up? No, let it go,"

Said Fredi quickly refused, Mother Dedi seemed to gasp, again he was surprised by the attitude Fredi who he thought was very unusual to see his son, he said,

"Mom thinks this is just gonna remind you of Amelia,"

Oghed her mother Dedi with a slightly trembling voice, from her expression, her mother Dedi was also as afraid of Fredi's reaction when Amelia's name was called,

And...

Yes, Fredi once heard the name Amelia called it immediately seemed surprised,

He looked at Dedi's mother with so many questions that he could not answer at this time,

Fredi wanted to understand the situation first, and Fredi really wanted to understand why he was thrown here,

"You... You're okay, aren't you, son?"

Her mother Dedi her eyes glazed over,

"It's not all your fault, everyone knows it's not your fault and it has nothing to do with you about what happened to Amelia, either,"

Her mother Dedi cried with tears.
