Black Orchid

Black Orchid
The Arjuna Hill Farm



Gusti invited his friend to be with us to the hill field of Arjuna .


Gusti introduced us all.


The educated and humble country boy was the first impression of meeting them.


"Now just go let's not bad luck." take Gusti .


"ayooo.." answered in unison.


We scattered out of Gusti's house and to 7 men towards the vacant land beside the garage.


Turns out they parked their trail bike right next to the billiard room .


Asgar drives his bike alone, Gusti with April, Bima with Gayatri, Marvin with Windu, Eka with Orchid, Arya with Figo .


The noise of a noisy motorbike accompanied our journey and once we spoke loudly.


After ten minutes we came out of the asphalt road into the rocky dirt road that split the forest that was quite traversed by the four wheels.


The sounds of birds and forest insects began to sound like a harmony between our motor sounds.


The road began to climb occasionally heard the cries of Windu and Gayatri , Orchid and April who saw them from behind just laughing.


It's their experience up the hill with the trail, the fear of falling from the motor makes them scream scream scream scream every time across the slippery road winding .


We stopped at the river to rest. The wide river is full of small river rocks, clear water flowing fast only the volume of water is limited to the ankle.


We chatted and laughed between our conversations with the hilarious behavior of Figo .Do not forget to capture this moment with our mobile camera.


Make a short video singing the leaves of towering tree trees plus the gurgling of water as well as birds and insects.


Long-tailed white ape also interacts as if he knows being the object of the camera.


Orchid and April headed for a small waterfall not far from where we stopped.


Waterfall that emerged from between the cliff like a thin curtain waving in the wind.


Both take water to drink later after arriving at their destination.


When Orchid and April returned with water, others swarmed over Gayatri and panicked to check on herself.


"there is a leech at the foot of Gayatri ." reply Arya who stood still observe.


Gusti and Marvin are still busy trying to release the leech from Gayatri's feet .


Gayatri's eyes look puffy and her hands hold on Bima .


Orchid who had just seen and thought why the handling is long, even Gusti's fingers until the injury ..what was it that they were panicking when Gayatri cried or screamed.


"Vin do not use daggers let alone twigs, which there are also leeches getting stronger or even Gayatri's legs are injured" Orchid explained .


"yes anyway, but how else do we not bring salt." said Marvin .


"we have palm wine but Gaya does not want us to water it with palm wine." said Figo who had not been silent walking squat standing up.


"Win talk to Gaya so that she does not focus on her legs." whispered Orchid to Windu, and soon Windu sat in front of Gayatri who was half asleep.


Orchid squatted near Gayatri's feet with Marvin replacing Gusti whose finger was injured.


Orchid asked Gayatri to straighten her legs, then told Gusti to wash her wounds and pour the wine afterwards .Orchid also asked for a match and two cigarettes.


As the leech grew larger, Orchid opened one cigarette and burned the other after soaking the tip with the toad.


The burnt cigarette was smeared around the leech repeatedly. Every time the fire was extinguished Orchid again dipped the tip into the toad that had been prepared to plasticize the cigarette pack and then burned it again .Repeated until the leech shrinks and detaches itself.


After being released Arya instantly killed the leech by hitting it with a stone.


Orchid told Marvin to wash the leech at Gayatri's feet with the toad.


After a few minutes Orchid then rubbed the leech with tobacco cigarettes that he opened earlier.


We were all relieved plus Figo's silliness that made us laugh.


Gayatri was also already smiling and was able to stand up .


Orchid asked Gayatri to wash her feet in the river because she was washing the wine.


After that, dry and poured eucalyptus oil so as not to feel bruised.
