Impossible Love

Impossible Love
9. Change Roles


Fredi was so down from the transport that drove him directly into the arms of women who wear rags and kebaya while crying, he said,


His embrace was so close that meeting Fredi was a happiness like no other,


Fredi also immediately felt like an oppa from Korea who was always favored by young women and mothers all over the world,


"Mom feels crazy Dediii... I feel like I'm going crazy,"


The woman said,


"Why did you go so long, wherever you went..."


The woman continued to cry, making Fredi so confused as to how,


Want to hug back, but Fredi actually knew the woman was not his mother, but on the other hand Fredi also felt so pity because there was a mother who seemed so afraid of losing her child, but on the other hand Fredi also felt so pity because there was a mother who seemed so afraid of losing her child,


Yes, Fredi remembers when Fredi's brother died from illness until his mother had to be admitted to the Hospital because it was so sad, so sad,


Indeed, the mother's affection for her child is clearly twofold, incomparable to anything in the world,


"Bu'e, let Dedi in first, he must be tired,"


There was a male voice that looked very authoritative, Fredi looked at him briefly and Fredi took the time to sing a smile, and,


However, seeing Fredi smile, somehow the authoritative man was just his gaze became strange on Fredi, like a gaze that felt foreign, a gaze that seemed to turn into alert, and a look that seemed to be,


"Let's go, kid, let's go in first, you gotta get changed, so you haven't eaten, have you?"


The crying woman then let go of her embrace, she grabbed Fredi's arm and led Fredi to walk home,


Meanwhile, it appears that Mr. Giman who came down from the transportation and also two other people who were the same drove Fredi approached the man who looked so authoritative, and so powerful,


They then seemed to talk to the four and let Fredi go home with the woman who acted as if she was Fredi's mother,


"Where did you find my son?"


Ask the authoritative man, though,


"We found Mas Dedi around a public cemetery in the district next to Mr. Siswoyo,"


Said Mr. Giman answer the question of the authoritative man, named Mr. Siswoyo, who,


"Did he tell me how he got there?"


Asked Mr. Siswoyo to Mr. Giman and his two friends, who seemed then they shook their heads,


"No Mr. Sis, we were not told at all why Mas Dedi was able to arrive at the cemetery next door,"


Said Mr. Giman, and...


"In fact, Mas Dedi was originally like a dazed person, who seemed to not know where he was, even like he did not know who he was,"


Add Mr. Giman anyway,


"He doesn't recognize you Mr Giman?"


Ask Mr. Siswoyo,


"No sir, not at all, he saw me like a completely foreigner, whom he had never seen me before,"


Said Mr. Giman with eyes that glance at the house where Fredi who looks will enter but took the time to look at Mr. Giman who was talking to authoritative men and both friends of Mr. Giman,


Obviously, Fredi believes that they are talking about him now, even if it's not a matter of what, anyway,


Mr. Siswoyo sighed, he was going to ask something again, when then one of Mr. Giman's friends suddenly took a voice,


"Mas Dedi was also acting a little strange, sir,"


Hearing that, Mr. Siswoyo and also Mr. Giman looked at the person who was talking, he said,


"What weird?"


Ask Mr. Sis, please,


"She asked us if this was what year it was,"


Said the man, then...


"Not only that, he also had time to mention names that we had never heard of,"


Add another friend of Mr. Giman, the,


"Whose name? A girl?"


Ask Mr. Siswoyo,


Mr. Giman's friend looked at his friend again,


"Dian Lizard,"


Said Mr. Giman's friend, but the friend who asked shook his head, because he felt that was not his name, then he tried to remember himself,


"Nwg... Ngg..."


Mr. Giman's friend tried to think hard, which in the end...


"Dian Sastrowardoyo,"


Said he finally found the name in his memory,


Mr. Siswoyo and Mr. Giman glanced at each other, they felt very foreign to the name, he said,


"Did he know my new son?"


Ask Mr. Siswoyo not sure,


"Not sir, he said it was an artist,"


The answer asked,


"Artist? Is there an artist named that?"


Mr. Siswoyo who certainly did not have much time to see TV or also listen to the radio, did not know who the artist is famous, at all,


"Yes sir, as far as I know the artist is Dian Nitami, not Dian Sastrowardoyo,"


"Mas Dedi also mentioned the name of Mr. Jokowi, after asking about the name of our president,"


Said another friend of Giman,


"Sir Jokowi? Who's that?"


Ask Mr. Siswoyo more and more dizzy,


"Yes that seems to be the name of the president that Mas Dedi remembered,"


Answer in Mr. Giman's friend,


"Lho... lho.. our president is still Pak Soeharto, where is Pak Jokowi from? This dedi why is it about?"


Mr. Siswoyo also felt that if so then his son was really strange,


"Yes sir, I'm also confused as to how many new names are being asked, especially if looking at his expression when we mentioned 1991, he almost seemed to jump,"


Say both, though,


Mr. Siswoyo and Mr. Giman looked at each other again,


For a moment they seemed silent, no one was talking because they were busy with their own thoughts about the strange Dedi,


"Son... What are you doing there?"


The voice of the woman who invited Fredi into the house was heard asking from behind Fredi who was now peering from behind the curtain of the house's glass window, peeking at Mr. Giman and the three people who are now Fredi is sure to be talking about him,


"You'd better take a warm bath, then I'll have Mbok Sur prepare, after a shower eat and rest, tomorrow after you're not too tired just tell us what really happened,"


Said the woman who continued to feel if she was Fredi's mother,


Feeling bad for the motherly woman, Fredi finally nodded and decided to leave the window of the house,


He followed the graceful steps of the motherly woman who was getting into the inner room,


"Mz-boook... Mbok Suuur, prepare the warm water Mbok, this is Dedi to take a Mboook bath,"


The woman said, which then emerged from a room more behind a woman in her sixty years who was struggling to run,


"Oalah Mas Dedi has come home, thank goodness..."


The woman who looks like she is Mbok Sur was teary eyes looking at Fredi who is now continuously called by the name of Dedi,


Well Dedi, the name of Fredi does not know why he is now named Dedi, just does not know why he was suddenly in 1991, the same,


Just then, Fredi saw accidentally the wall calendar in the middle room of the house, which was,


Calendar with beautiful panoramic view of a mountain and rice fields that spread widely with writing in 1991.
