Trapped in 2001

New Mobile Phone

"Mario."

Deddy opens the door to Mario's room, as the boy prepares to go to sleep.

"Yes dad, what's wrong?" ask Mario then. Deddy then sat down on the side of the child's bed, carrying a paper bag.

"Daddy has something for you" said the man later.

"What, dad?" Mario curious.

"More."

Deddy took something out of the paper bag. It turned out to be a Nokia-branded mobile phone, with serial number 3310.

Mario grabbed the item, he even had a much better gadget in his era. But there was one thing that made his heart suddenly feel warm.

Because it was given by Deddy, who is the figure of his father in this era. Throughout his life, Mario has never once received a gift from his father. Even during the 16th anniversary of his birth, no gifts were sent by his father at all. Just showing his nose isn't.

"This is Mario, dad?" her question with teary eyes held back tears.

Deddy smile.

"Yes, because you've been a good boy all along. From SD until now you have always been obedient and accomplished, daddy is proud of you."

Mario looked down for a moment, he was indeed a child who had accomplished since childhood. But in his era, it happened because Michael's demands on him were too high. He can always achieve this even though he was never praised even by Michael.

"Thanks, dad." he said slowly.

Deddy gently rubbed the boy's head, then landed a warm kiss on his forehead. Mario's tears flowed, but soon he wiped them before Deddy realized it.

"Rest is yes."

"Yes dad, daddy too."

Deddy smiled, before finally moving on and leaving the room. Stay Mario himself, he began to be curious and turn on the main lights of the room to make it brighter.

He noticed the phone Deddy gave him, then opened the box. Deddy has prepared a starter card, with a number that is easy to remember.

Mario laughs, between haru, and also funny. He opened the phone and put the card in it. He struggled with this thing long enough. Until finally he was sleepy, then put the device on the side of the bed. Soon, he slept peacefully until morning.

"Bro, I want to talk to you" said Mario in a hurry when he, Brian, and Cavin had arrived at school. Meanwhile, Adril, Heru, and Ratna, were in a queue to park their bikes.

"Same, bro. I also." said Cavin.

"Gue too." - Brian.

The three of them walked quickly towards the most desolate area behind the school.

While dipping to the right and left, the three took out something from within their respective pockets.

"Gue this is loved."

The three of them placed their phones on the floor. The three who were crouching were then silent.

"So, what do we do with this thing?" ask Mario and Brian.

"I don't know." replied Mario.

"Nothing to do, bro." Brian chimed in. The three of them then shut up for a moment.

"Seek lo's number, bro." Pinta Cavin later.

"Once one of us suddenly finds a portal to the future. It's not hard to know if there's a phone number."

Mario gave me his number, and so did Brian. Last time they got Cavin's number simultaneously.

"Bambang Jok."

Suddenly Mario texted with such writing, to Brian and Also Cavin.

"Andi key." replied Cavin in sms. He sent it to Mario and Brian.

"Mamat Tang." Brian replied with a giggle.

"In the Exhaust." Mario replied again.

"Tarno Kampas rem."

"Give Spakbor."

"Anto ban dalem."

"Haha."

They continued the conversation, laughing. Then the bells of the sign came ringing. Then they rushed back to class.

When the lesson began, Mario and his two friends did not immediately stop their conversation in the text. They keep texting each other in silent mode.

"Grandler Fingers."

"Tio Rim."

"Rudi Oil."

"Kilihih."

The three giggled with a very detained voice, so as not to be caught by the teacher who was teaching. They continued to joke, until it invited the attention of Adril and Heru.

"Lo on why the hell, laugh mulu?" adril asked Mario, his voice was deliberately softened so as not to be heard by anyone.

"It."

Mario shows the sms contained in his phone. Adrian saw it and then showed a moment to Heru who was sitting in the back. Both of them laughed.

"What number?" ask Adrian.

Mario gave it to him. Shortly thereafter, Adril and Heru texted her.

"Iyan pan." said Adrian in his text.

"Cecep broom." Heru won't lose.

In an instant the two had already exchanged numbers with Brian and Cavin as well. Their conversation was getting longer.

"Cualy's bell."

"Reza centong."

"Amir duct tape."

"Kilihih."

They all chuckle.

"What's wrong?" ask the teacher suddenly.

He looked at Mario, though he saw not only Mario laughing.

"Mmm, no ma'am. It's okay."

Mario tried hard to hold back the laughter. The names were still lodged in his head and presented a keenness of its own. If he was not in class, he would have laughed in a loud voice since.

"You do this, Mario."

Suddenly Cavin and Brian gasped. In his entire life, Mario has never been able to work on physics. Even if the value is good, it is the result of cheating the property of physics-smart children in their class. It also has to go through coercion. If he does not give, Mario threatens to harm the child.

This time, he seemed relaxed. The teenager came forward because since then despite the text, he had noticed his teacher and tried to solve the problem.

Now he stepped forward towards the blackboard, making Brian and Cavin look at each other. While still occasionally smiling because remembering the contents of sms from his friends. But Mario managed to solve this problem.

"Okay Mario, you got the answer right."

Mario is back to his seat. While both Cavin and Brian, still could not believe what they just saw.

"Bro, koq lo can physics anyway?" ask Brian later. He and Cavin still can't believe it.

"I, yes?"

Mario asked back. He himself does not believe, if he has just solved one problem without anyone's help.

"But it's easy." said Mario again.

"Now, you just follow the formula."

He showed the formula written in the printed book to Cavin and Brian. Still, the brain is both ignorant, even seeing the formula is like seeing a clump of tangled yarn that is wrinkled.

"Au ah, your freak." Brian said and returned to his seat. Mario who still feels amazed by himself, now looks his own smile.

"It turns out physics is easy." he murmured in his heart.

"I think gini mah, I can be good at it for a long time. No need to cheat again the same broom fish." he continued again.

The broom fish is the name he gave, for the child who is good at physics in his class. Because the child likes to clean up in class, due to obsessive compulsive disorder that he has.
