PONDEROUSLY
Is This a Dream?


Jerim was seen daydreaming in his yard. It was seen that he was squatting on the ground while his fingers grasped a small wooden branch. He moved his hand to scrawl the ground with the wooden branch. While his mind is free to travel to the realm of imagination through his daydreams.


Still imagined yesterday in the mind of Jerim when three men who visited his mother's house. It was clear in his mind the behavior of his mother and the three men. When one of the men saluted his mother. It looked really strange in his mind. What else when the three men called his mother 'queen'. Her mother's name was Christine, not queen. But why did the three of them call her mother the queen? As you recall, previous guests also call with the same name. But then Jerim didn't care much about it.


It is not just that which looks strange in the eyes of Jerim. When his mother said to see a large ship in this courtyard, exactly where he was working at this time made the yerim feel even more astonished. What else three guests who came yesterday also confirmed what his mother said. While he himself did not see the thing that his mother said at that time.


It aroused a great curiosity in Jerim. A ship? What's that thing? What was her mother calling her yesterday. Which his mother said was a very large ship. Jerim did not really understand the meaning of his mother's words.


Actually, Yerim was impatient to ask his mother about the 'big ship. Because yesterday his mother said she would tell him what a big ship is. But Jerim abandoned his intentions. Afraid that later his mother will be angry like the guests - the mother's guests yesterday. Yerim thought it best to wait for the right time. The right time is not to ask. But the exact time is when his own mother will deliver to Jerim.


At present, Jerim is still dissolved in his reverie deepening. Until he breathed a long breath. Without him noticing, the figure of Christine was already present behind his body. Since the beginning of this morning, his mother has not been seen in their home. While yerim position his body that is crouching on the ground, his front body facing towards the front. Right in front of Christine's wooden fence. In the usual place where he would enter the courtyard of his house. Since then, though in his daydream, Jerim did not hear his mother's footsteps. Didn't see his mother step into their yard through the street in front of his fence.


Christine looked at her daughter's body crouching on the ground. Until he touched his daughter's shoulder. And made his daughter jerim surprised.


Yerim reflexively turned his head slightly. Raising his head up. Seeing the figure that had awakened his daydream with a touch on his shoulders.


"Mother?". Jerome asked, beginning to be confused.


Of course he got confused. Which way did her mother come? No one saw his mother when he came to their yard.


Christine smiled wryly at her beloved daughter.


"Mother from anywhere? Since morning I've been looking for where my mom is. But I didn't find mom." Jerim.


Christine then rubbed her daughter's head.


"You know where you usually go, don't you?". Christine returned the question back to Jerim.


Jerim scrunched his forehead.


"But just now I didn't see my mother coming in from that direction." Yerim said while pointing towards the wooden fence of Christine's house.


Christine smiled cynically. But he did not question his daughter.


"What are you doing here, son?". Christine switched the conversation.


"I?". Yerim asked still with a bit of confusion.


Looks like the yerim concentration is a little crumbling. So that he did not connect with the question from his mother at this time.


Christine laughed.


"Of course it's you. Who else is there besides you here, my son?". Christine was laughing.


This time Christine's laughter did not sound as shrill as yesterday when a guest came to her house at that time. Christine's laughter sounded ordinary. But it still sounds a little awful. Yerim already felt was - was with the attitude of his mother now. I don't know why Yerim could have such thoughts. Yerim should not be worried or afraid, after all Christine is his mother. There's no way her mother would hurt her.


Jerim wanted to cover from his mother what he was thinking about in his daydream. He did not want his mother to know the truth if he actually felt confused and strange to see the attitude and behavior of his mother late - this end. Unlike the days they usually pass. To be honest, for the new personality of his mother in recent days as he did not know. Yerim felt a little frightened to see his mother.


Christine squinted both her eyes. Staring straight at his daughter's face. Looking for a lie from his daughter's eyes. Christine didn't find that.


"really? Why are you doing that to my daughter?". Christine asked as if she was looking.


"I was bored in my room, Mom. That's why I play in this yard." Answer the plain yerim.


Christine smiled wryly.


Christine believed the answer of her daughter Jerim. The way he saw his daughter. Her daughter who had a plain nature in her eyes. There is no way that her daughter is lying to her, right?


"My daughter, I'm gonna start teaching you how to train your supernatural. So that you can quickly become a great and professional psychic." Christine's light.


Again, yerim reflexively frowned.


"Supernatural me? Now mother?". Ask yerim.


Christine nodded her head.


"Of course, son. Nowow. Do you want to linger long?". Christine.


Yerim was forced to nod. Actually he is not ready to train his supernatural now. Because he really does not understand how to train his supernatural. After all supernatural is what Jerim does not understand. However, Jerim according to what the mother tells him. He was afraid that his mother would be angry with him if he did not obey what his mother said. According to yerim. Though his mother is not like that when to his favorite daughter. Christine was much more patient in teaching Jerim during this time.


"All right, ma'am." Answer yerim at last.


"Let's go with mom there." Bring christine.


Christine pointed to a wooden chair that was still located in her yard. To the left of the tree that was as tall as the roof of Christine's house.


Yerim's gaze reflexively fell on the wooden chair pointed at by his mother.


He quickly nodded his head. Signs approve the invitation from his mother.


"Yes ma'am." Answer jeremy again.


Jerim slowly stepped his feet towards the seat it was located in. Without realizing it arrived - christine was already on the wooden chair. Sitting waiting for Yerim to approach him.


That made the Yerim surprised. Because of the feeling of yerim, his mother walked behind him. But why is it so fast that his mother is already sitting on that wooden chair? Is this real? Or is this a dream? Jerim pinched his hand slowly. Pain in the hand that was pinched yerim earlier. It turns out it's reality!


"Mother? When was she in that chair? Wasn't she behind me?" Ask yerim astonished.


There was the sound of Christine's shrill laughter. Penetrating the eardrum of the yerim and breaking the silence in the environment around his house.
