Paper Dreams

Paper Dreams
Chapter 12's



I'm in the kitchen, but the kitchen I'm in right now isn't the one I used to be in with Kenan. I was in a big house. But, I don't know where I am. I also still see the Paper Dream that is near me. I went out of the kitchen and went around looking at the house I was in right now. There are no pictures in the living room and no signs of anyone in the house but me.


I took my phone, I found Lenca's name. But I can't find his name on my phone. Then, I looked up Riana's name and it turned out that her number was still there. I called him, luckily the number was connected. Tut's... Tut's... Tut's... His phone ringtone was connected, but no one picked up the phone. I called him back, but he refused and a message came in. "I'm in a meeting, I'll call you back for a minute" wrote the incoming message.


I went back down to the house I live in now, I checked one by one the room that was there, even I went up to the second floor, there are no signs that I am living with someone.


Do I not have a partner in the present? Why is it as if no one lives in this house but me.


Tringg.... Tringgg... Tringgg...... The phone rang loudly in the kitchen I had previously occupied. I ran down the stairs, and I quickly headed to the kitchen hoping that the one who called me could give me a clue.


'Mother' written her name there. I picked up the phone quickly, hoping that mom would give me a few sentences that would let me know my current state.


"Hello?"


"Hello Son? Is Dad bothering you?" A hoarse voice that was still like before sounded in my ears.


"No Dad. What's up?"


"Mom wants to go to your house next week, what's wrong? I want to shop for clothes, because the neighbor's son wants to get married next week" said the mother who took over the phone.


"Dad told your mother that she would bother you" continued Dad, who sounded a little distant.


"Why Dad, I'm not too busy on weekends"


"really? Can you accompany mom?"


"Yes. Key can do ma'am"


"You don't want to take Daddy for a walk? You're the one who took me there," Dad suddenly sounded very close to the phone.


"No, I live in a house. This is a thank you very much Key wants to accompany Mom shopping for clothes." Am I that close to Mom? Actually what kind of person I am so they react to such astonishment.


"If Key would not let us all go for a walk. Yeah, no Key?" dad said take over the phone again.


"Yes can do well. Key will be eating out."


"Mother hang up the phone lest you change your mind. Assalamualaikum."


"Getishalight." The greeting I said, no one heard it. It was as if they had just first seen my reaction like that. I was amazed to hear Mom and Dad. Actually, what kind of person am I right now?


I saw the paper that was still on the table. I want to go back to a time. But I don't think I want to waste my time. Who knows, if I talk to one of my friends they can tell me what kind of person this is.


...****************...


The clock showed at 07:00 p.m., my phone rang and I found Riana's name calling there. "Hello Key, to the Supermarket near Lo's house well! I was here. Scribbles!" The phone was also closed by him. Without any words from me, even though I really wanted to ask her right then and there. But he was busier than I imagined.


I went upstairs first to pick up the jacket I saw in the closet. Then, go back down and put on some footwear first. I opened the door carefully, but I didn't know this place. But I feel like I've been to this place. I forgot, but I think this place is beautiful.


I looked around and looked for the nearest supermarket around the house. I looked at the supermarket to the left of my house and I found someone I looked familiar with on the terrace looking for something.


"Riana!"


"Hey!" He looked up at me while still searching his bag. "Sit in front of me, I'm looking for something" he continued.


"What are you looking for?"


"Ta-da, that photo you asked for yesterday." He took out a picture of someone I saw. But, I don't know what I have to do with the person in the photo.


"Why did you take this photo to me?"


"Don't you ask yesterday? He said, Lo again misses this guy. Until now there has been no clarity. He's also not connected to Lo after that?"


"Whatchu mean? I forgot who this guy was. I don't remember at all" I said in confusion.


"Are you sick?" tanyanya worries about me.


"No. But, I kind of forgot something." Then my head hurt a lot, and at first glance I saw myself with the person in this photo. But I never felt like I was doing the thing I had in mind. Actually, why am I like this?
