[Eng Translation] DILAN Part 1 - Me

My name is Milea. Milea Adnan Hussain. I’m a woman, and I just have finished eating an orange.

….

Since childhood, I have been living in Jakarta. At 1990, my father got a task in Bandung, so my mom, my sister, my home assistant, all my stuff and I moved to Bandung.

I also moved to a high school in Bandung. To me, it was the most romantic school in the world, or at least, in Asia. It had an old style building. 

There was a huge tree in the school yard, it had a lot of branches and was really beautiful in the twilight and cloudy afternoon, and also in the morning, if you want. Most people believed that tree was haunted, but it didn’t make me scared. Except if I had to sleep there all night.

That school keeps a lot of memories. Especially about someone that I really loved, someone who had filled my days back then. And tonight I’ll tell his story to you. I will write all the story about him and what really happened back then.

Before that, I’m telling you my position right now. Tonight, I’m in my workspace with hot lemon tea and Rolling Stones songs, in Central Jakarta, in a house that my husband and I had been living in since 1997.

So let’s started, here is the story:
