When Was It?




when was the last time I traveled with Mi?
Now I am trying to recall every detail of our trip to
Pantai Pasir Putih (me, Mi), early 80's?
Magelang years ago, often
Sumatra 1992
Surabaya to Oom Dan's 1998 in which she talked to him to support me!

Do I remember what she was wearing?
What did she packed to the bag?
What lunch did she bring me?
Which bottle of water did she bring along?
What stories did she tell?
Did she point where she lived long ago at Gempol?
Did she tell what movies her foster parents watched at kinos?
I have so many questions

So when I went to Singkawang with Pi, Fi, K Es, I knew what I miss and lose. All the way there and back, Pi would recall stories: the amounts of money she bought, where she stood, what she did if the motorbike would cross the small bridge.

What made her willing to endure the trips? Was it her love for others' souls that brought her there? I may never know the answer(s). But I know how people there miss her badly, but then so do I!
