Samurai Mats - 53
“Thank you, lady, you saved my life. Is
Japan it's gone?”
“Already. But this house they keep an eye on. The house is closed to the place
prostitution. You are certainly hungry. You've been in a hole for two days
this”
“.. Two days ..?”
“Yes. You came in here at midnight. It's almost afternoon, now,
I brought food with fish gulai, sambal la do and petai. Likes sambal
lado and petai?”
The Bungsu doesn't talk much. He eats with gourmand. The girl turned out too
haven't eaten. They eat together.
“You cooked this meal?” he asked after he finished eating
increased to three times.
“How, tasty ?”
“Almost equals my mother's cooking ..”
“Yang cooking etek Munah, our helper ..”
The Bungsu then remembered, that he had to leave this house immediately.
His body was not fresh yet, but he felt it was strong to continue
the journey.
“What's your name ..?”
“Mei-may..”
“May may ?”
“Ya, and your name is ?”
“Bungsu ..”
“Bungsu ? You're the smallest kid in your family ?”
“Yes. May-may.. Thank you for your help. I can't pay it back. My
must go now.”
“Where are you going?” The pensive Bungsu.
Yeah, where's he going ? There's never a place he's sure to go on set
his journey. But, isn't he looking for Saburo ? this memory makes it
I want to ask Mei-mei. Isn't this place a gambling place and a place
having fun with the officers ?
“I'm looking for a Japanese officer named Saburo. Do you recognize him
May-may ?”
“Saburo....., Saburo Matsuyama ?”.
“Yes. Saburo Matsuyama Do you know him?”
“Where is he now ?”
“As I recall it's been a while he's not here. Reportedly he moved to
Batusangkar.
“Batusangkar..?”
“Ya ..you're going there, getting your revenge on her ?”
“Yes. How do you know Mei-mei ?”
“I saw your whole fight with Japan and with Father two days
the past also heard all the talk back then..”.
“Map ?” The Bungsu was astonished to hear the words of the Father spoken by Mei-mei.
“Yes. That fat Babah is my stepdad ..”
The Bungsu until upheld hearing Mei-mei's confession. Almost can't
he believed that the Babah he had kicked was the girl's stepfather
these. Didn't he see that he had thwarted the Babah ? Straight away
why did this girl help him from the clutches of Japan? Mei-mei looks at.
“Your father .?”
The Bungsu asked slowly “Sit down Bungsu. He's my stepfather. I look
thou hast cut off his body as in a slaughterhouse. But you don't need
regretting. He should get such treatment. For what he
do it to your people and to myself ..”
the Bungsu did not understand what Mei-mei meant.
“He became the eyes of the Netherlands. The eyes of Japan. And more than
that's him is a Communist ..”
“Communist .?” the Bungsu did not understand.
As an innocent village boy he never heard of communists. Name
it was very foreign to the ears of the village boy Situjuh Ladang Laweh at the waist
This Mount Sago.
“Yes, communist. You don't know ..?” The girl then got up. “Cute me ..”
The Bungsu follows the girl, who carries a wall lamp and walks to
an alley. This underground pit seemed to be quite large. They get to
another room larger than the first. In that room
the walls are covered in red cloth. In the middle, in front of a table, there is a
chinese pictures in large size. Below it was a red flag with a
yellow picture in the middle.
“That's a picture of the Chinese communist leadership. Mao TseTung's. And a flag with a hammer
arit it is the symbol of communists ..” Mei-mei explains.
