My eyes were hot and my head was dizzy from last night's events.


Not sleeping all night made my body feel sick and also limp.


This is due to the sound of gamelan that was heard until that morning made it difficult for me to fall asleep because the sound will be stronger if I close my eyes and also the mystical aura that makes my feathers stand still.

Right now I'm still lying limp on my bed.


Nausea and dizziness also make it difficult for me to move.

At that time I could do nothing and just follow what they did.

I was given fruits and also a lot of food even in the garland of flowers that fragrant very good.

I stared at the man who looked like me, very similar, but he had two horns on his head.


He held my hand tight until I felt pain.


I screamed but there was no one to help me, the people there looked down in fear at this man.


Until the atmosphere of this place began to change, which was light slowly the land became dark, so dark that I could not see anything.


All I felt was the grip of this man's hand and the cold.


Suddenly I was under a huge tree.

"Why is rame?" I'm confused.


"Where are you from, my mom is worried about you." Said my mother who was crying at the time for looking for me.


03:14 a.m., I did not expect that I had been gone that long.


All I remember is I was gone for about half an hour, but in fact I was gone for 3 hours.

That's what I remember the rest of the time I forgot what happened.


Maybe that's why my mom was so worried, she was afraid I was gone and not coming back.


Even my mother forbade me to fish behind the house again, not only on the strip but I was not allowed to fish again maybe for a long time.


Oh right, since that incident, my grandfather gave me a new name and that's why I was called Momo because Momo is not my name.

I thought what you were doing there I thought.


Then I tried to call you and it turned out that the call came in, but there was no answer.


"What the hell are you and why don't you pick up this phone." Thought.


In my heart I thought maybe Dinda didn't want me to bother anymore.


"yes! maybe all this time I've been bothering her life because that's why she's gone."


"Now I have to go so as not to be a prankster in his life."


Thinking of Dinda makes me sad, because I like her so much.


Although only briefly knowing him but this feeling really tormented me.


I know and also believe that he likes a lot but I feel able to have it now.


I feel like it's mine and I won't let anyone take it, maybe it's selfish but I really don't want to lose him.


The ringing sound rang out and my HP vibration made this phone move.


I who had no spirit took the phone without looking and right then and there.
