When i came home, the sky already turn dark. Soft breeze and the atmotshpere at night really made me think about what 'Fredoom' from my past.
I opened my front door, suddenly i heard something quite unsettled, i think.... somebody cried...
Eeeer.. ok.. It's night time and somebody is crying their eyeballs out. This is not creepy at all!
A took a step and before i opened my mouth, my mom ran like crazy to me, "Hwaaa!!! You're back! Oh My gosh!!!" she kept on crying.
I awkawrdly hold her, while she sob "What happen, Mom? D..."
"THAT MANDARIN DRAMA IS SOOOOOOOO SAD!!!!! THEY BOTH DIE AT THE END! FIRST, SHE DIED IN HIS ARM... AND... AND... HWAAAAA!!"
I know her personality, she is the best mom and she loves her drama too much. Sometime, she could cry because of the stupid story. I think she is cute and gentle in some way. The best mom that i can ever have and ask
"How about, you tell me what happend, Mom. You said they both died, why?" I tried to comfort her. She sniffled and begin to tell me the story about what she just watch.
After couple of 'sharing the feeling' she just stop crying. She blew her nose and pat me on the head, "My daughter is just the best. You love your Mom so much."
"Oh, yes! How about Dad? Will he come home fo dinner,"
Mom just sadly puffed her cheek, "Sadly, no. Business meeting,"
"So, what we are having today?" i asked while helping her make up the dinner table.
"Soto betawi and perkedel! Your Favorite!" She smiled gently.
Soto betawi and perkedel are my favorite. The gentle touch of the coconut milk mixture with the beef broth soup with potato and tomato insde. Also, perkedel. Massed potato that shape lke a flat ball and deep fried at the right tempetarue, so the skin is golden brown.
The summary is THEY ARE THE BEST FOOD!
"What's you wearing, dear?" Looks like mom finally notice my new bracelet.
I shrugged, "It's a gift."
Now, her face is finally become more like a fox, "Uuuu... A.. Gift from whom to be exact, dear daughter? ,"
"A gift thee received from the modest heart of a young lad. Full of future ahead of us. Love at first sight. Like a venom that drip to my heart. This young fool don't want to feel love, alas... Fate made this fool to his slave and feel love," Yes, I'm joking!
"Please stop fooling around. Its just a gift!" I finally hits a nerve.
"I got from a nice old lady. A reminder that my 'past life' will catch up on me."
"The first nonsense now become more sense to me." my mom huffed, then we both went to the dinner table.
We're eating togehter. Me and my Mom, suddenly my Mom said, "About past life... and all that nonsense, actually some people belive that the past life is the continuation of our life now. Some people just can't let go the past. They refuse, maybe because of love."
"Is it one of your drama 'knowledge', Mom?" i giggled. She just silent.
"Actually, your past grandmother ever dream about her past life. She said, she was a princess in some castle in China. Her loved one found her while she went hunting with her father, the general of the king. She met a young man, beautiful long hair, really good with the bow and arrow. they got married, sadly her husband were never found after a great war brake off,"
"What! Stop fooling me around, mom!" i snapped a little.
My mom just clear her throat, "I don't even know it's that story 100% true. But, she told me in her dead bed and she said, she really want to see that man once again."
I sighed,"I'm sorry, mom"
"It's ok. Ah! let's do the dishes"

"Am i chained?"
"What is this?"
i openend my eyes slowly.
BAM! Somebody slammed a door... to be exact... it's the door in front of me.
"Finally you woke up, you damn pig! Time to work. or you want me to kill you?"
A man stand in front of me. he looks fat, rude and his kimono looks fancy. He must be rich.
What happening?
"Yes, Young master. I understood. I will prepare your bath and some snack and mochis as soon as possible."
Hey, i'm not in control of my body?
What? Mochi? Really?
HELP! HELP!
Instead i got up, pat my old worn kimono from the dried straw. I pick up my katana. put it at my left waist.
i brushed my hair.
I washed my face with fresh water from the bucket. I look at my expression
SHE IS NOT ME! WE DONT LOOK A LIKE!
My steps are hard, because of the chain the they put on my ankles.
Somebody HELP ME!!
Clink, clink, clink.
But my body just won't listen to me. I'm a different person.
"TOMOE! TOMOE! WHERE THE FUCK IS MY BATH WATER! YOU'RE SLOW AS A SNAIL! TOMOE!"
"Yes, young master. Please forgive this unworthy person. I'll prepare it now. As fast as i can,"
Who is Tomoe?
I'm paniced! Mom!! Dad!! Help!!
My body just kept busy with the task. I lit fire fot the bath by blowing the fire using the long bamboo straw.
The 'Young Master' keeps babling about me being so slow
Come 'on! You chained me!
"Tomoe!"
"Yes," i look at the young master digust face.
"Just scram, don't forget my snack! Father also wants to talk to you."
"Understood, young master. Tomoe will leave now."
Then i keep on walking with the chains on my ankles.
Right now, I'm Tomoe.
