The Downpour

I have watched many movies, and what I always wondered about was, do the movie’s heroes, superheroes, and lead characters ever need to take shit? I mean think about Spiderman, Superman and Thor, or Jason Statham and Arnold, do they go potty?

I’ll be right there Wonder Woman, Superman needs to take a super dump.

No never, but here I was the character in my story and I needed to take a dump. Yet it was raining so hard and there was no toilet in sight on this lovely off-the-grid property. This was funny, I had to laugh a little. At least I was not having the shits while the lights to fasten your seatbelts came on the flight.

I took off my shirt, pants and all. Putu and Dewi glanced at me. I am sure they wondered what this white ape was up to. I do not recall when the last time I showered but I was going to go out and take a dump. While I was there I had to shower sort of in the rain. Luckily there were very large plush leaves around.

With that out of the way, I entered the cabin and dried off. The downpour didn’t stop, there were no signs of this letting up. We were in this for the long haul. I continued to jot down every detail of our trip and our location. I was not, but I felt as if I was telling my story just in case? I tried not to think like that. I was around good people, I just didn’t know how to communicate with them.

They were not exactly waving flags and shooting off fireworks to help me. So I thought it was time to communicate with them. I did my best to draw a map of Bali. From Singaraja to Uluwatu, the large island with the single testicle hanging from the bottom I tried hard to remember how we got here. The main areas were easy but the rest of it was not. I did my best to show them where our journey started. I did my best to draw my map, but they stared at me in silence.

Zsolt Zsemba

Zsolt Zsemba has worn many different hats. He has been an entrepreneur, and businessman for over 30 years. Living abroad has given him many amazing experiences in life and also sparked his imagination for writing. After moving to Canada from Hungary at the age of 10 and working in a family business for a large part of his life. The switch from manufacturing to writing came surprisingly easily for him. His passion for writing began at age 12, mostly writing poetry and short stories. In 1999, the chance came to write scripts. Zsolt took some time off from his family business to write in Jakarta Indonesia for MD Entertainment. Having written dozens of soap operas and made for TV movies, in 2003 Zsolt returned to the family business once more. In 2018, he had the chance to head back to Asia once again. He took on the challenge to be the COO for MD Pictures and get back into the entertainment business. The entertainment business opened up the desire to write once more and the words began to flow onto the pages again. He decided to rewrite a book he began years ago. Organ House was reborn and is a fiction suspense novel while Scars is a young adult drama focused on life’s challenges. After the first two books, his desire to write not only became more challenging but enjoyable as well. After having several books completed he was convinced to publish them for your enjoyment. Zsolt does not tend to stay in one specific genre but tends to lean towards strong female leads and horror. Though he also has a few human interest books, he tends to write about whatever brews in his brain for a while.
