Memories

Written by, Intan Tri Fitriani

Cindy woke up in a hospital bed, surrounded by people who were crying and smiling happily at the same time. "Thank God, you finally woke up," said a middle-aged woman who was right beside her. Cindy didn't recognize everyone around her, she just stared with confusion on her face. "Who are you? Why am I here?" said Cindy. Suddenly everyone who was there looked even more sad. Cindy is the daughter of Maria, the middle-aged woman who was beside her when she woke up. An unfortunate incident had happened to her a few months ago which finally put her in a coma and lost part of her memory. After one week from the day she came to his senses. Cindy was brought back to Maria's house. 

This morning Cindy tried to get out of the house for the first time after she felt used to the atmosphere around her. A girl who just got out of her car was seen running in a hurry from a distance. The girl ran while calling Cindy's name a few times, then stopped right in front of Cindy and hugged her tightly. "Are you okay? do you still remember me?" said the girl while sobbing. Celly, is the name of the girl who approached Cindy that morning. She is the closest friend who knows best what happened to Cindy before she fell into a coma. Celly continued her sentence after letting go of his embrace, "I'm sorry Cindy, I should have gone with Roy that day, not you and Ferry." With a confused look Cindy asked, "who are you? and who are Roy and Ferry? I don't even know you." Celly didn't want to tell Cindy everything because she didn't want her to get hurt before her old wounds healed. But secretly, after returning from Cindy's house, Celly wrote everything in a diary to try to release her guilt. 

It was an orientation day for new students. Cindy, Celly, Ferry and Roy were part of the committee for this activity. The last three days of the orientation period, there will be a Faculties Familiar Night activity which will be held outside the campus. The four of them got the same task, which was to find a suitable place for 450 students. Celly and Roy who have travel experience to various places have many references that can be used as options. Two places are the places that they think are the most suitable among the others. So they had to do the survey separately into 2 teams, Celly with Roy and Cindy with Ferry. The team was formed based on couples because they were both in a relationship. Cindy and Ferry have been a couple since they were in 3rd grade of high school until now. Meanwhile, Celly and Roy have only been in a relationship for about a year. One week before the orientation activity took place, Ferry had come to Cindy's house to ask for the blessing of her parents. Because Ferry wanted to propose to Cindy after their dating. Cindy was also happy with Ferry's decision to finally take their relationship to a more serious level. Cindy's parents are also happy to give their 

blessing, and they will carry out the procession after the orientation activity is over. Ferry himself is a good figure in the eyes of everyone, especially Cindy and her parents. Ferry never hurt Cindy's feelings during their relationship. And in fact, Ferry never once asked Cindy to do things that shouldn't be done before marriage like other couples.

The day of the survey arrived. That morning at 9 o'clock they gathered on campus. Their first plan is that Roy and Cindy would go to a place that was approximately 40 km away, while Cindy and Ferry would go to a place that was only 7 km away from campus. But that morning they decided to change their destination. Because Celly, who was on her period, complained of being sick, so she couldn't afford to go far. The two agreed and started their survey at 10 am. On their way, Cindy and Ferry chatted lightly in the car until they came to the topic of conversation about engagement. Cindy asked Ferry not to go overboard in renting decorations. And with a smile Ferry replied, "I will follow all your advice. After all this is for both of us, not just for me." Hearing Ferry's answer, Cindy's smile broke. Along the way they continued their conversation. Until they don't feel it, their destination is already 100 meters in front of them.
However, they did not have time to pull the car over to park, the sound of horns sounded very loud from behind them. Soon followed by a loud crash. Brukk a big truck hit them from behind until their car hit another truck in front. Cindy was unconscious because she hit her head. Ferry, who was still conscious, tried to find help with his body covered in blood and his head stuck in a broken car window. Not having had time to get help, Ferry was unconscious. 20 minutes after the incident, they were just found. This is because the road is relatively empty of vehicles passing by. When taken to the hospital, Cindy was declared in a coma. Meanwhile, Ferry, his lover, was declared dead due to bleeding in his head. For that reason, Celly was powerless to tell Cindy. Celly didn't want to surprise her. Although not sure that he will be able to keep it a secret from Cindy, Celly only hopes that Cindy's memory will recover slowly so that she can remember the incident by herself. But all that didn't last long, 2 weeks later Cindy suddenly asked when she was at Kelly's house, if she was close to a man. Because she felt that there was little memory of a man who had always been with her. Celly couldn't answer the question, she just kept quiet and shifted the conversation "o-oh I'll take a snack, looks like the cookies are cooked." Cindy nodded. After Cindy left, Cindy looked around Celly's room. Her eyes fell on a book that seemed to be sticking out of the top of the cupboard. Like a curious child, Cindy picked up and read the book. As Celly didn't expect to happen, Cindy finds her diary and accidentally opens a page that tells of a dark incident in her past. It didn't take long for Cindy to burst into tears with sobs that seemed to have been held back for a long time.
