Jakarta, 2017
A very busy afternoon in a metropolitan city. Clouds are accompanying all the activities that occur in this city. Several employees from various offices crowded the pavements today.
Of course not to go home, but to rest their brains for a moment from a whole job given by their superiors. Spoil the worms in their stomach that have been growling since the morning ammunition has been empty. All they need to think about this time is what menu to choose. Restaurant? Or at a stall, their feet going? For them, the price is not a problem. In this era, the owners of the company must be willing to spend a very deep to give the salaries of employees.

All primary or secondary needs, always increasing every year. Either the problematic country or the government? Of course they will not care about it all. Their lives will be assured, as long as they have jobs in a multi-story building. No need to be afraid, if the rent will increase. No need to think about living tomorrow. Their life will not be like a hard rock erode water.

But not everyone who lives in this city, has a decent life like that. Almost seventy percent of the people who live here, have to fight just for a bite of rice. Like Ginny. The girl who was involved in a fight with several youths. Her shabby brown curls fluttered in the air, as she made a twisting blow on one of the youths. Several wounds and bruises were adorning his face. For a fraction of a minute, she tried to paralyze the youth group. Impossible of course, she can win the fight. Then! One of the boys hit the back of his neck with a wooden block, which made him gasp before falling on the ground.
Slowly the young man approached the helpless Ginny. Tighten his finger on the wood. And!
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6692D94r0r
"Cut!" Barito's echoing voice, ending their action.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANANbRxOWeqtP
Ginny hurried to her feet, having heard the voice. Then throw a smile at the group of youths who fought him earlier.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIIJI0kQdli
"Gin .. are you okay? My punch is too hard?" Ask the young man who hit him with the beam before.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAMXUjh5mDTE
"Ah, calm down, just a little dizzy," she replied with a crisp laugh.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANArM1FmzDNnS
"Stuntman! Hurry out of the scene," shouted the man with barito voice.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgcR04guWNG
While a girl who dressed the same and the makeup is also exactly with Ginny was immediately entered the set, accompanied by his makeup artist. For a moment she stopped and looked at Ginny.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANARBGEmmHBq6
"Good job, thanks for helping me," she said, punctuated with a friendly smile.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAPmScVmWuIt
"Thank you!" Said Ginny, also smiling friendly.
---
Thirty minutes have passed. Ginny walked out of the locker room. Bruises that previously decorate the smooth face had been given the drug. Of course the bruise is not a work of art from the makeup artist.
She often gets such injuries. Sometimes giving a great scene, it takes a considerable sacrifice. As a stuntwoman, she has grown accustomed to such minor injuries. But, that does not mean he never get a major injury. Last year, she had surgery for his broken right foot due to a falling scene from the stairs. But she never regretted having chosen the job. There sometimes, when her heart sends a weak signal on the body, she also had time to think will find another job. But when his brain works, she thinks of reality. It would be very difficult to find a job in a city whose population is growing every year. And .. how is the fate of her aunt and her two younger sisters living with her? Endure and fight! Two words that were stuck to her soul.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAMVZy4fN2lC
"Gin!" The young man who did the scene with him earlier, approached. Soon Ginny stopped and turned her back.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQxZSFRIwvG
"Rey? What's up?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAR2obRB64p5
"Don't you remember what day it's today?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANACmkqeBprwj
For a moment Ginny frowned as she rolled her eyes.
"Ah! Today we are receiving wages, aren't we?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYgz3K8uWkb
"Tsk. Don't think too much! You can lose your memory later, "he said. "It's yours. "
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJaoOr2Ig4J
"Thank you," she said, accepting a white envelope.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA8eN8smB8u1
"It's three o'clock in the afternoon, we're done, where are you going to go to? Want to eat with me?" Asked the oriental-faced man.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQPgnj9CD39
"Rey, sorry, I-"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA5XNNLDeQiA
"You have to go home to buy your siblings their favorite food, right?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAiTjgcQPNfV
Ginny just replied with a nod while smiling regretfully. Her cell phone rang, a few seconds later. Soon she took it from his pocket.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAO5VUYUa4hv
"I'm sorry Rey, I'll call you later," She said in a hurry.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAuxL5Wqw0m
In fact, Rey didn't have time to say goodbye. His words hung in the air, interspersed with long sighs. Rey is pretty handsome, for a stuntman. Even a few producers who have offered him to become an actor. But Rey always refused. The reason is, because he didn't want to be preoccupied with the noisy life of the artist. But the real reason is to keep him close to Ginny.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANApPoOFHdntk
"He refused again?" Said a young man coming from behind, standing right beside him. "If I count this already thirty-five times! Wow, Ginny is outrageous. Rey .. what are you looking for from an ordinary girl, like Ginny? Sure .. She's pretty enough. But.."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAUwN5mByaFb
"For me, Ginny is a great girl, I like her personality, she's brave and tough, not spoiled like the artists."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAnuuGfNbGNX
"Yes, she is ... She's pretty good. Even, to good, to drive you crazy like this! You rejected Shareen and another beautiful artist for Ginny."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzbBKfS9Uv0
Rey just smiled as he listened to his friend.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAhceZGEMuKk
"Rey! This is Ginny's wallet, right?" A girl approached him with a white purse, flowered. When his smile had faded.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAvIMxI7mtIX
"Oh, yes it is. Ah, he's very careless," he muttered as he clicked his tongue. "You wait here! She mustn't be far from here."
Rey immediately ran after saying that. And ignoring his friend who yelled, called him.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7e8ZlEehlj
"I'll buy you your favorite food, twins! Wait for me."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA8udCnIktKi
Ginny hurriedly hung up and put it in her sling bag. For a moment she sighed briefly and raised her -head as she walked.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJWAuK59DB0
"Why is the recent weather, unfriendly? Maybe it's time I have to buy an umbrella."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYZYmtq2EvT
Her white sneaker keeps going happily. A smile widened on his face. Grasping tightly envelopes containing her toil for a month. With the money, she was actually able to buy a used car so she was no longer wet because of rain. No longer crowded inside a public bus. But she was not that crap. That money will also be given to her aunt to pay the rent and the needs of her twin sibling. And some, he will set aside to be combined. Ever since, her dream was only one. Realizing her aunt's wish to go to her hometown and visit her grandparents who were none other than Ginny's aunt's parents. The main priority is family. For her, the family is half of her soul.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAY9A5JfaoK4
Don't know what's on his mind, so for a moment he stopped the step. Twisted his eyes and smiled crookedly. Stare at the envelope in the grip and move the eyelids to the right and to the left.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAqSXUyCCuTc
"Well, more than usual," she said, counting the money in an envelope.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA8BWaTIhBtA
But the pleasure she didn't enjoy alone. Since leaving the building, someone was following her. Occasionally, hiding behind the trees, standing by the side of the road. Like a tiger lurking its prey. In a split second, he continued to stare at his watch and Gin in turn. And finally the man in the black hoodie jacket robbed Gin's envelope and ran. Ginny gasped in surprise as she spread her eyes. Before he finally ran, chased the robber.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAuoahuPdOiV
"Fuck !! Hei, you Stop !! Thieves !!"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAUfosX6U3qk
She kept shouting those words by running as fast as she could. Though the people around noticed him, but none of them had any intention to help him. Ginny didn't shout, to ask for help. Because she think it was just useless. Until lightning booms, and cumulus clouds are ready to spew out the liquid, they keep on chasing each other. Ginny was panting. Likewise, the robber who was a few feet ahead of him. The robber turned to Ginny who was out of breath. He snorted briefly. Taunted Ginny. No way Ginny can catch her, he thought. But that's wrong. Ginny is an unyielding and stubborn girl. She will not just stop. Immediately, Ginny kneeled on one leg, tightening her shoelaces. Sighing short while throwing a sharp eye, at the robber. Which finally made the robber frown and sigh irritably.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANArylIzMUSgY
"Crazy girl!" He conceded.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAW5L0S7ANBe
Before the end, he ran hard, again. The scene even more dramatic when the water grains from the sky spill instantly. Accompanying the footsteps of those who are getting tired. Continue. And keep running.
The rains of the rain made the streets desolate. Pedestrians, looking for shelter. There are only a few cars passing by. Upon arriving at a large bridge on the highway, the robber briefly turned back to Ginny.
"Damn! She keeps chasing me! I don't have time! I have to go!"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAlHKHfQxzzG
Again. The Robber back to run. And Ginny persistently pursues him to get her money back. Run without regard to his surroundings. Her thoughts were only on the robber. Until finally she got lost in a crowd of people crowding. As well as small children carry balloons with joy.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIvttHAhGke
"Excuse me, sorry, excuse me!" she said as she split the crowd. But she lost track of the robber. Inevitably she stopped with a sigh of annoyance.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANANvMN8VMb53
"Damn! I lost that jerk!"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAEtolJyOOYB
She raised her head, and soon her eyes shrank. Glare because the sun is shining perfectly. Ginny opened her sling bag and reached into it. It didn't take long to frown.
"My wallet .. why not here?" She muttered. "Is it possible, left in the locker room? Ah, so clumsy!"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA0UK6pYOlae
After cursing herself, she looked around, looking for a bathroom to sip water from the faucet. The drought had hit the throat. After finding the bathroom, Ginny rushes to the sink and immediately holds water on her palm and takes a sip. Then washed her face and looked at herself in the mirror. And again a brief sigh. For a moment her gaze was blank, until her forehead wrinkled into one when she saw her wet hair. Ginny was standing slightly away from the mirror, and bowed her head, saw her blue jogger jeans jumpsuit and her white T-shirt had been wet. Her two hard brown eyes are a little bit slanted also radiate fear. Suddenly hes ran out of The bathroom and stopped right in front of it. Ginny looked around and noticed an oddity.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAz6sPNMpnuC
"Why am I in the playground? Last time, I chased the robber - on the big bridge! Yeah! But why was I suddenly in this place? And I think it was raining very heavily? Why - the weather suddenly hot? What is going on?"
Without thinking any longer he rushed to every passerby. Ask, where is this? What is this place? But no one answered her question. Instead of answering her question, they see Ginny with a strange look. Imminent, she immediately took his cell phone. Intend to contact Rey or anyone. But!
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAVzmuglwOah
"What else is this! Why in the playground there is no signal ?! What a fucking place! "
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9xSSK3UwXp
Ginny had been exhausted. She cursed the place and also the fucking robbers who had made her day annoying. Until a low roar sounded, when she was upset. Ginny lowered her head as she rubbed her stomach.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANADRO4MnZOVD
"I'm hungry."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7jpmHzSqtP
Within minutes, she continued to stand with a miserable look. And making a little boy look at him from afar, feel pity. Touching his right ear for a moment, attached a tool. Then approached Gin.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1126Vaslf
"Are you lost?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAu2wALR5pUW
Immediately, Ginny raised her head and spread her eyes.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA48AW0jHgCn
"You talk to me?" Asked Gin.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAoGOa9EUz3h
"Then I talk to the wind?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANALkb85mcWQ9
"N-no.. it's not like that. All people here don't understand what I'm saying.You're the only one talking in my language! You're an Indonesian?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA0XcsVsAEqC
"Not."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7lbFyQ58ef
"But why do you understand what I said?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANATTTT9eJIbE
The little boy just shrugged his shoulders.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAH8aplG12KM
"Do you know what place it is?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAylc5L5RIG8
"Playground, of course, your question is weird."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANATanBAgQwb3
"I know, but this is so strange why I'm suddenly in this place?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAqecHWFeQeL
The boy's gaze to Gin kept an oddity. Either suspicious or will do sneaky on Gin.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAXr4dpJT4Pd
"May I know how you came here?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxy3hvpv7cc
"At first, I was chasing a man who robbed me, but when I ran-I was suddenly in this place and you know? Before it rained heavily! Look at my wet clothes, but suddenly it was hot. Really weird. "
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7w3vehgkNR
"Are you one of us?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6dMHCaa2VB
"What are you talking about?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAkwEasmilw4
"Follow me."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAssTMSXDHQl
Having no choice, Ginny followed the little man. Hoping,at he immediately knew what had happened to him and was able to return home. For a fraction of a minute, they keep going. And all the while, Ginny continued to look around. There is no oddity in that place. Just a playground in general. It's just some games a little different from most playgrounds. Bianglala in general, equipped with a long iron buffer to be able to hang in the air perfectly, but not with a bianglala at here, which is only equipped wheel for passenger cabin seats and floated away with a height of 541 feet above the ground. Like, against the gravity of the earth. And when the spacecraft spins, it's glowing with beautiful, colorful lights. Also! The writing of directions or writing in each play area that blinks as if hanging in the air with bright colors. Without a pole or electricity that makes them light up. For Ginny it was weird. But his eyes can't lie. Both shone, when saw it all, with admiration.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6D4BfutyHv
"Joe! Where are you from?" Asked a man, to a small brown child, who was with Gin.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAEmBqHymACm
They stopped at the cafeteria and approached a table with several people. Sitting on an elongated brown chair. Seen they were having lunch. And making a rumble in Ginny's stomach is getting louder.
"I brought a friend," Joe said, stomping toward Ginny. "Auntie Kim! You check her, maybe she's one of us."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAaMDA6DGy3s
The middle-aged lady with her short straight hair immediately approached Ginny, after whispering to Joe. Throw a friendly smile at Ginny who looks confused.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAvpWDHvcu52
"Can you tell me how can you came here?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAX7BUsOIanH
"Are you Indonesian?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAsun542Yq9q
"No, Later, if you want to get acquainted, I want you to tell me how you came to this place?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAbukBoQ0m6J
Ginny told her what had happened a few hours ago. The story that finally made aunt Kim sigh briefly.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAug4329c8g9
"Dong Joo Shin! Come here!" She snapped. Without a long wait, the man wearing a black Hoodie jacket approached.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAVzaBqbPYGY
"You are the robber, aren't you? Shit! Give me back my money!" Growled Ginny, hitting Dong Joo's head over and over.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANARikHN5Kmwt
"Stop it! It hurts!" He shouted with a moan of pain.
But that didn't stop Ginny's actions, which grew furious. Continue to hit Dong Joo.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAmtlDhrd62n
"What is wrong?!" A man who has a soft voice, stops Ginny's actions.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANATRbdh3g3NP
Ginny glanced at the sound. A handsome man with a chic hairstyle and a black shirt walking up to her.
Close the distance between them. The man's slit eyes stared hard at Ginny. The man looks very arrogant when behaving like that.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3zsJfwP5Ie
"Ken .. Dong Joo stole his money," Explained aunt Kim.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9r0JbCLyrr
"Is it true?" Ginny replied with a nervous nod.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAL8DmKN9N58
"Dong Joo! Get up fast!"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAnAIwtFBqZA
Slowly Dong Joo stands up with an unbearable nervousness.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3L9LEJkxIE
"K-ken, i
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAGIidwx7jLG
.." "I told you now, right? We're not a low-grade thief! Quickly give the money back!"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAusmQRGLOtr
Dong Joo can't answer. Just chuckled, before finally handed over Ginny's envelope. She immediately grabbed it, then checked the amount.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYKz45sjcPi
"Done?" Ken asked.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANASkHHQroCwI
"Yes, thank-"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAlY2DCSiJZt
Ken walked away, letting Ginny's words fall in the throat.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzUzSDApBCr
"Ignore him, he's in trouble. Actually, he's a good man."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6uT7wauhZQ
"Ah, no problem," Ginny concluded. "Auntie .. thanks to you my money back, thank you."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAkIRrt0SsAF
"No problem. I'm sorry, you're in trouble because of Dong Joo, I'll give him a lesson later!"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3L9fsb93j3
"N-no need. Ah, right! Auntie, actually, what's this place? And how can I go home?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwsKjZqjyrS
"Mmm, you must be hungry? You better eat first, then I'll explain."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAN5gp9arzKl
Because she's very hungry, Ginny was not shy to eat with gusto. And one table with unknown people. Five people sitting side by side and facing her, staring at Ginny with their mouth open. Occasionally, swallow. Only one person didn't attract her attention. Of course arrogant men, Ken. He'd been just sitting on the corner of the bench with his hands in his chest.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANABG21E1Lgbk
"Auntie .. I'm done, now can you explain to me?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAsMD9Be3fyZ
"Are you ready to hear it?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAA8OqxH1FOC
Ginny convinced with a single nod.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAhc3mTYHmvd
"We're in South Korea." Auntie Kim answer certainly made Ginny widen her eyes.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAg37Oi0C0bP
"What? Don't joke with me. How can I be in-"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYmNX6Kl9Ww
Suddenly, Ginny fell silent. And be aware of some things that make sense. First, people don't look like Indonesian citizens and don't understand what Ginny's saying. Secondly, writing and bulletin boards are written with Hangeul. And the third is the name of the robber. Dong Joo Shin. It sounds clear, it is the name of Koreans.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAR8bdN54o7
"But what is South Korea so sophisticated? I mean .. I saw some very sophisticated rides. " Ginny gasped, after saying that. "What .. is this magical world in South Korea?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJkz7zgxN6C
Ginny's question, making auntie Kim laugh echoed. "You're an adult, why do you still believe such a childish story?"
"You're right," she said with a shy laugh. "Is that why my cell phone is not working? But how can I be in South Korea just by crossing the bridge?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1WTFaSFh30
"Because you followed Dong Joo and accidentally dragged in. Your phone will not work this year, miss."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIAJccEuOLI
"In this year? What does that mean?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAu6jxPvZSTE
"This is South Korea in 2023!"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYXyVg5pqvB
"What?!"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxxqqvzWkKD
Ginny couldn't hide her incredible surprise when she heard it. Even some passers-by stopped their paces and turned to her, due to the echoing sound of his voice.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANARfYLgP9xGE
"Auntie.."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAznDXcAelQa
"I'm not kidding, miss. "
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAv3Xjld5iW1
And in a confused situation, Ginny takes the phone from inside the bag. See the phone screen that was written in 2023! She immediately cupped his mouth with the palm of his hand, because of the shock enveloped him.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAryt3qjpKrM
"Then .. how did you and your family get to be in this place?"
1094Please respect copyright.PENANARBbuCiqckg
"We are not family, miss. We are only people who are brought together by fate, because we have the same conditions and world, we finally decided to form a group, and Ken is the chairman. Because he's the one who unites us."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAi3xOxsIdOF
"The same world? What do you mean my world, right? The human world, right?" Ginny's words became awkward. "No way ... what are you ghosts?" Ginny whispered.
1094Please respect copyright.PENANAKtwiQqSy46
Once again, auntie Kim laughter echoed. Before finally getting closer to Ginny and whispering. "We- are time travelers."
1094Please respect copyright.PENANANInFb7yEAr
