40 Days, One Love
2087
"Hah... fresh really" Yua chirped after feeling the freshness of the body after bathing. All day outside the house makes his body tired, sweaty and feel sultry. Moreover, for two days he was outside his comfort zone, in his own room, making it take me time so that his energy can be collected again.
People like Yua, if it had gone out and met a lot of people then its energy would have been drained drastically. So the only way Yua could regain her energy was to sleep as long as she could, if she woke up tomorrow. His body he threw into his soft and warm mattress. Do not forget to also wear a soft blanket that can bring up sleepiness.
After praying, Yua closed her eyes and relaxed her body. His method was quite successful, the longer his consciousness was lessened. Her sleepiness appeared and her body could no longer move. He slowly sank into his subconscious.
Everyone who is asleep will definitely dream just that some people do not remember it when they wake up. Including Yua, he was now dreaming. Dreaming of this incident last afternoon. Dream of meeting the cafe owner. It's just that in the dream the face of the cafe owner is not there, flat. But Yua could recognize her from her blond hair color and high posture.
"Huh"
Yua woke up from her sleep. He woke up because of the dream, because the face of the owner of the cafe that he could not remember, to reflect in his dream flat-faced. The sleepiness is gone and can no longer sleep. How will Yua sleep if he even thinks of his dream earlier, the face of the cafe owner. Now, Yua even felt like she had experienced this yesterday. Like there was something he forgot, but he didn't remember.
...***...
Though Yua had just fallen asleep but had just woken up because of a dream, so he did not know what to do now. Wanted to surf the internet, but he didn't know what to look for. Wanted to watch Yutube or stream dramas but he didn't know what to watch. Instagram is not interested either. I want to talk, but no chat friends. He wanted to play games, but his eyes were sleepy. Sleepy but unable to sleep.
"Huhhh" complained Yua who is now going awry.
"The face I forgot, but how else... What's the most important way to get to sleep???" thought in the heart.
"Ah.." muttered Yua who seemed to think what could make her fall asleep.
Yeah, things that everyone knows. Reading books!!... Yua recalled that in college, he often fell asleep after reading a page of scientific books. "Yes..that's it!!!, Let's try~~~" he joked.
...***...
"The most famous classical economist was Adam Smith with his theory of Absolute Advantage. According to him, a country can be said to have an absolute advantage over other countries if the country produces goods or services that cannot be produced by other countries nnnnnnnn__________" . Sure enough, just reading one paragraph only managed to make Yua fall asleep. I don't know what he learned in college, haha.
Once more... Yua was dreaming in her sleep. Again with the same dream. Meet the owner of the cafe again still with his face flat. But, his dream was not as short as before.
"It's called the constellation Orion" said Yua in his dream. In his dream, Yua also explained how to find the constellation and other chatter with the cafe owner who was lying next to him on a deserted building roof. In the dream, Yua saw herself several times stealing glances at the cafe owner as if she knew him.
"Huh"
Yua woke up again because of her dream. His chest was tight, his head was dizzy and his body was slightly sweating. Yua was thirsty too. Instead of her being dehydrated, she would rather drink water and calm herself down. Yua got up from her bed and headed for the kitchen.
...***...
A glass of warm water and a grain of paracetamol became a night snack for Yua. At least relieve the dizziness it's much better. The remaining glass of warm water was brought to his room so that it could be drunk when thirsty and no need to bother to the kitchen anymore.
But... when you want to put the glass earlier on the floor of his desk, Yua accidentally stumbled and dropped all the piles of his items on the table to the floor, including the water that he brought also spilled.
Yua was a little lazy to clean up his things until left to pile up on the table like that. Once tripped everything scattered. His falling goods, clothes, bags, books, dolls, until his wet snacks scattered on the floor.
Fortunately, Yua could not sleep. He had an activity to clean up all this mess. One by one he picked up and he assembled. The clothes he put in a basket of dirty clothes, bags and dolls he neatly arranged on the table, the rest of his snacks he threw away in the trash and last book....
"This book....Jesus" muttered Yua when she found a book from the cafe this afternoon among her books, probably stacked by the clothes she was wearing earlier.
Knowing that the book was not hers, Yua quickly dried the cover of the water earlier with a hair-dryer. The book that Yua accidentally brought home from the cafe this afternoon.
Thankfully, the book was not too wet and no writing faded. If something is broken, Yua will definitely feel guilty and afraid to be scolded by the cafe owner.
...***...
His room was now dry and clean, no longer like a broken ship. His eyes were still not sleepy but Yua was curious about the book instead. The book that he had placed on the table, he grabbed it and took it to the mattress with the intention of reading it while lying down.
"Time Travel on Dimensional Physic"
The title alone made him curious. Moreover, he did not have time to finish what he read this afternoon. Although in his heart he does not believe things beyond reason, there is no harm if he reads just one or two pages.
But after Yua saw the back and front cover, the introduction, table of contents, and index there was no written who the author was. The year this book was written is clear. "In 2087, the first print"
"Yeahhhh!!" bemused.
You can't believe if this book is written in 2087, the year 2021 is not finished. If it is true that from 2087 then umurna at that time has been 91 years, whether still alive or dead. Believe in disbelief, logical illogical, just assume if this is just a trick the owner of the cafe is better if he read what is in this book, he thought.
...***...
Not his passion for reading scientific books, Yua then looked for a suspicious page that he found last afternoon and had not finished reading it.
..."There is a limited period of time for time jumpers"...
Adalagi sentence marked and attract the attention of Yua.
..."Time prisoners can never cross the boundaries of space and time forever"...
"Kok kayak never read" he thought to himself. Both sentences felt familiar, but if he thought about it he could have read it. Many novels and comics incorporate the theme of time travel as a theme. "Oh.. in the comics maybe!!" muttered.
But just those two sentences did not make Yua satisfied and his curiosity reduced, which there was a curiosity as if it became so. Reading from scratch is what he should be doing right now, reading some or just a few sentences to avoid ambiguity or different understanding.
You start from what is time travel, the concept of time travel with the laws of physics, time jumpers, time prisoners, to the consequences that will be received during time travel. A book that is not too thick until you can finish it in just a matter of hours. Really..not usually Yua is able to read scientific books to the last page, great.
...***...
Yua's head was now heavy, not because of a headache but because the material in the book was very heavy and the language used was too difficult. As much as what pages he read, only a few actually passed the screening in his brain.
There were several sentences that also attracted his attention until Yua diligently he wrote back in his memo.
..."No one can predict when the first time-travel will appear"...
..."No matter how hard you try to change your destiny, God is always fair"...
..."The memory of every soul that returns in its time will be lost. However, the feeling of no one can eliminate it"...
..."Time loops often occur in the case of people who have pressure in their souls accompanied by triggers that are still active"...
And the last sentence in this book.
..."In some cases, there are things that happen that do not fit the hypothesis"...
What does this have to do with time travel, destiny, memory, time loop, and this hypothesis, Yua thought. Is this book just a hypothesis or just the author who made it up. Yua then remembered the rumors he had heard a few months ago on campus about the cafe and the owner of the cafe.
"The cafe is weird, it's been around for over 100 years. The owner is never seen, even looks youthful" Yua recalled. "100 years old, old cafe, youthful" murmured Yua.
Yua then connects the three conditions with the 7 sentences that he made the underscore earlier.
"Wouldn't the owner... uh. but it's just a rumor!!" lamented Yua.
"Ahh crazy!!!" Yua felt foolish after thinking about the possibility. Even he felt like a child who just believed in the baseless rumors and instead attributed them to this shabby book.
"It's almost morning, I'm sleepy too!" chirp Yua who now keeps everything away about the book. He had to get up early in the morning so he could meet the owner of the cafe again and persuade him to give information about the figure of his mother.
