A mere dream had resulted this story. The dream happened probably due to heavy daily chores. It was a real, pure, genuine revelation. In order to avoid any inconvenience or other dispute, the author stated the names which were in this article in pseudonyms.
One day, I went to a seminar. While I was attending it, I could not concentrate on the topic even though I had given a good answer to the speaker's question. The speaker used my good answer as one of the points to sum up the quite lively seminar. Then, what was disturbing me? This was in my mind, a scene from a local private TV late adult-comedy-show. In that scene, there was a brand new young lady-seller who was proposing credit transactions. The buyer-seller agreements were: the prospective new buyer should order only to the seller daily and payments would be done on the following day after the buyer took the vegetables. While the two ladies were discussing in front of the house garage, the housewife's husband came out from the house. He was in his seventies. He introduced himself and he tried to court the young sexy seller publicly in front of his wife. He proudly told the seller not to worry of his wife. She would not be jealous and she would have no hard feelings of the seller. When the old man had gone into the house, the seller asked the young lady why she was not re-active towards her husband's acts and behaviour. "Well," she said, "I don't mind with my husband's flirting with the other women because I can collect so many proofs as my reasons to get a divorce. I will become a filthy rich divorced young woman and I can get a new, fresher, more energetic, younger man than the old scum or he might even be younger than me." The seller nodded several times, "O! Yeah, yeah!"
The seminar ended late that night. After a little chat with one of the participants, I went back home. I straightly went to bed even though I was being a little disturbed by my trivial family matter (it was not the scandalous one, ha, ha!). Then, at dawn, I dreamed the following...
There was an actress-cum-ad-model, Denise, who was on contract for TV ads which was run by Bradford, a world-wide, well-known medical-manufacturer where I worked. The President of Indonesia had elected her as a minister whose main task was to enhance the people's creativity. (What kind of department was it?) The actress was facing a legal suit and she was in the TV headline news. She was charged for misconduct, for living with two husbands. The second husband was 'Zoel', a well-known teenage-idol star. Imagine, a married woman minister-cum-actress and model, who was in her late thirties, having a second husband, a teenage-idol star who was aged early twenties!
There were some crowds who were urging her to step down. Many people, including the media, blamed her for taking advantage of the so-called "poor 'Zoel'" who was still young, inexperience and immature. While demonstrations against her grew more and more, some streets and roads were closed for public. I could only walk on the streets to my office. On the way, I met another well-known actor-cum-ad-model, 'Panji', who was carrying a machine gun at his back. Someone asked me, he wondered how a civilian could carry a gun. "Well," I said, "I might know the answer but, I would be really glad if you could find the right answer directly from the actor's words." There were some news of the actor being charged for illegal gun possession. When being asked of it, the actor answered, "The matter was already closed and settled". He had offered a good bargain to the authorities. There were some business transactions being involved between the authorities and the actor. According to him, it was really a good bargain because it affected the welfare of the officers-in-charge who were living with low-income. (Could this be another scandal?)
