From 6 to 12, the city bustles non stop. Catering those that work here, and those that lived here. You see the walks of life from your car, from your office window, and from your very own eyes. There's always something more than the surface, it's not always about you, you know. We're going to explore Jakarta through different walks of life, different background, different education, and different feelings.
Viewpoints are gathered through interviews and observations undertaken by the author, and due to creative work, these stories weren't meant to be accurate, but it does however depict the life in the streets of Jakarta, and I hope I can capture the essence.
I would like to share these tales with you.

Apa jadinya bila cinta harus melintasi tujuh masa untuk bisa bertahan? Raden Panji dan Dewi Sekartaji adalah dua jiwa yang dipertemukan lewat perjodohan kerajaan. Namun, sebelum janji suci mereka terikat, Dewi Sekartaji diracun oleh musuh Kerajaan Jenggala hingga tubuhnya membeku - hidup tapi tidak sepenuhnya bernyawa. Raden Panji diberi tiga pilihan: - Menyerahkan dua kerajaan demi nyawa Dewi Sekartaji, - Membiarkan Dewi Sekartaji dinikahi musuhnya, atau - Melewati lorong waktu tujuh masa, untuk mematahkan racun di jepit rambut yang merenggut jiwa gadis yang dicintainya. Raden Panji memilih pilihan ketiga - sebuah sumpah mustahil. Di setiap masa, ia tetap menjadi dirinya sendiri, tetap membawa ingatan dan cintanya. Tapi Dewi Sekartaji... selalu menjelma sebagai sosok berbeda, gadis lain dengan nama lain. Ia harus selalu diingatkan, dihidupkan kembali, dan diajak jatuh cinta sekali lagi. Dari dunia pegunungan, samudra bajak laut, padang pasir, hingga masa kini yang asing, mereka berdua berjuang untuk satu hal: cinta yang tak bisa dipatahkan oleh waktu. Tapi, mampukah cinta mereka bertahan ketika musuh lama ikut terbawa ke setiap masa? Atau justru cinta itu akan runtuh di masa terakhir - antara hidup dan mati?Complete

The ones they only dare to tell anonymously, late at night, to strangers on the internet-because their friends won't believe them, and their families refuse to listen. So, if you can't sleep tonight, open this book. Just don't read it after the lights go out. Welcome to True Horror Stories from Strangers Worldwide. You've been warned.
