Two Twins Separated
37 | MEETINGS

They arrived in front of the building in bright yellow, with brown stripes at each corner. The roof is also brown. The building is quite big. Around it, there are Asoka flowers that adorn the museum.

Ivan stopped in front of them. "When you come in, just talk as necessary. Inside there is also a driver. If there's something you don't understand, you can ask him. You understand?"

The whole student nodded. "Understand me, sir."

Inside the room was a person sitting at a table, close to the entrance. He lifted his sweet smile.

"Good afternoon. We from High School 2 Shomba came here to study. Can you guide us?" ask Mr. Ivan.

The woman nodded. "of course. Before that, please fill in the visitor list, sir. It's just you, as a representative." He gave a ballpoint pen to Mr. Ivan.

Mr. Ivan nodded, directly filling in the list of visitors.

The woman began to guide each student through the space within the museum.

Each room in the museum is filled with historical relics. There are old photographs, custom clothing, weapons, currency, even household furniture.

About half an hour later, the visit was over.

"good. We thank you very much for the time you took to guide us" Mr. Ivan said.

"Thank you again for your visit, sir," the woman replied.

Mr. Ivan saw the watch. "We're done. Because there is still a lot of time, I release you to explore Semala. But remember to gather at 16:00 at this museum again."

"Good, sir."

"Where are we going?" ask Bella.

Kevin looked at the edge in front of the museum. "Walk through that edge. Not far from here, we will arrive at the city park. It's pretty cold in there."

They nodded.

"Wait for what else? Let's just go to the park" Bella said.

They follow Kevin's advice, walking from the edge towards the city park. The grass that adorns the edge spoils the eyes. The wind blew, cooling the place.

"You're right, Kevin. It's very cold here" Bella said.

"Kevin, is that park so far from here?" ask Reva.

"Not really. Just keep walking. It won't be felt, we'll be there" replied Kevin.

"Well, what's on the other side of that is Shomba?" ask Reva again while looking at the waters that stretch between Shomba and Semala.

Kevin cleared his throat. "Yes, from here it looks, right? Suppose there was a bridge between Shomba and Semala, we would not have to get sick on the bus, facing the pimply road."

"Well, Reva, did you wear the scarf I gave you back then?" ask Vian while tugging at his scarf.

Reva walked backwards. "Don't bother me!" his yell. He accidentally hit someone, making that person fall down.

"Ah, sorry. I was not intentionally. Are you all right?" ask while sticking out his hand. He looked at the head of the girl he hit.

"I'm okay" said the girl. He lifted his head, then fell silent.

Reva was surprised not to play. Reva's expression suddenly tensed up. His eyes opened wide, staring at the girl before him.

"Reva. I knew we would meet, for sure" he said. He immediately stood up, hugging Reva tightly. "I miss you so much, Reva."

Reva was silent. His face is still tense. He let go of the girl's embrace, looking at her question markingly. "Who are you?"

The wind blew, blowing their hair. Not only hair, but the smile on the girl's face also disappeared like swept by the wind. Her tears still piled in her eye bags.

"It's me, Erva," he answered.

Reva shook her head while walking backwards. "Cannot be. I must have seen it wrong."

Erva held onto his arm. "No, you didn't see wrong. It's me, Erva, your twin. Why don't you recognize me?"

Reva forcibly took off her hand. "No way!" his yell. He sat down, holding his head.

"Reva, what's wrong?" ask Bella.

Reva was still holding her head. "This is impossible. Since when do I have a twin brother? It's impossible."

"I am your twin brother. Why don't you trust me?" Erva is sitting down. "I've lost you a long time. Very long. I finally found you, I met you here. But why don't you recognize me?"

Reva held her head even harder. "Enough. Don't talk anymore!" His eyes were soaked in tears. His face began to pale, cold sweat drenching his body. Slowly, his consciousness declined.

Everyone is panicking. Bella shook her body. "Reva? Oh gosh. He fainted again" said Bella anxiously.

"That's... My house is pretty close from here. Just take Reva to my house" suggested Erva.

"All right."

Erva takes them to a simple house that is gray in color. He took the key out of his pocket, stuck it in the keyhole. Door opens.

"Come in. Take him inside."

The room in the house looked so neat.

Vian placed Reva's body on the dark red sofa. His face was very pale.

Erva approached, she stroked the head of her twin sister. "My long-lost sister. I've wanted to see you for a long time. Do you know what? I miss you so much. What exactly happened to you until you became like this?"

Kevin patted Erva on the shoulder, asking her to get back on her feet. "There's something we need to tell you, Erva."

Erva stopped the movement of her hand, looking back at Kevin. "What's that?"

"Actually Reva lost her memory" Kevin replied.

Erva's eyes are rounded. "Is that true?"

Vian nodded. "Yes. Lately, Reva has been having frequent headaches. Sometimes he even fainted from the pain. Yeah, in the end he fainted again when he saw you."

Erva lowered her head, slowing down her voice. "Reva, a lot has happened to you, to me, to us." He looked back at Kevin. "All this must have happened because of the events of nine years ago, in 2011."

They're shocked.

"What events?" ask Bella.

Erva looked at him, then looked back down. "Great accident."
