Jakarta, June 29, 2001
While Jakarta still contains metromini and egg crust vendors, two young children dream of changing the world. After the incident the other day, Airi agrees to become a super hero. It will save someone. No longer the neighboring cats, or the birds that were hit by the kites. It wasn't Dad's car rescue mission, it was someone's rescue from his death.
"You see anything?" ask Sky.
Airi shakes.
Two young children, each ten years old, were standing among the crowd of visitors. Now they are in the old town. There was nothing they did but watch one by one from a distance. This is a rescue mission, if Airi sees something they will save that person.
Her eyes rolled, from one side to the other. From one corner to another. People looked happy, no one displayed an aura of despair or sadness. Even animals, they look comfortable and calm.
"Where else to go?"
The sky began to fall, he was sweating since. Walking from one place to another is quite far away. The journey took a long time. There are many places they have visited. However, no one will make Airi a superhero.
"Just go home?" airi asked, because he knew the sky was easy to sweat. He will sigh many times when his body is erratic and when his body is no longer supportive to do the activity.
"Don't. There must be someone we can save."
You stubborn!
The sky is not a person who gives up easily.
"Come, Ri. Look carefully."
Airi sharpened her eyes, she saw one by one visitors, but nil. They should be grateful that no one will be harmed in this place.
"Go home, yuk. Maybe on the way I saw something."
"Not really exist here?"
"I don't see."
"Jude, look again."
Airi nodded.
Being a superhero is not a good idea. How can he find someone who wants to be wretched. But Sky, he with his great sense of empathy would not give up so easily. In addition to dying in bed, they must save someone, and change the world without any sudden death. Especially being killed by the shadows of darkness.
How could the two children survive on empty stomachs and thin pocket money. If around him sold food and drinks that are appetizing. Sweet martabak sprinkled with jams and nuts, and fragrant sweets that blush, and of course the asem sprinkled with chili and sugar .
"Stop the sky."
The girl stopped her steps, she looked at a chicken noodle seller. "See." Designate it.
"What?"
"That guy. Behind him is huge."
Flabbergasted skies. "Samperin yok."
They ran towards the chicken noodle cart parked under the shade of the acacia tree. In addition to carts and sellers, there were many visitors and buyers around. Quickly, the shadow seemed huge.
"Yes, deck. How many packs?" The sky glanced at Airi, but the girl could not be expected. Instead of helping or supporting, he curled up and looked back.
To save that man. The sky was willing to say it even though he actually did not see the angel of death directly. And also for the sake of his brilliant idea to make Airi a super hero, fuck if he is considered crazy though. If it wasn't him and Airi, then who would have saved so many people and changed the world?
The sky swallowed. "I don't want to buy it, sir. There's something behind you, and maybe you'll die now."
Hearing this, the seller laughed. After some buyers who joined chuckle with the words Sky.
"Death is in God's hands, Deck. Not in your hands." He did not take the laughter off his lips. Meanwhile, his hands were busy wiping the newly washed bowl.
"I really am, sir. You're in danger of getting hurt. It's really, Ri." The sky stared at Airi, she swathed her clothes to seek the support of the girl.
Airi nodded quickly, her body shivering even in broad daylight like this. That creature is so big and scary. "I see for myself."
The chicken noodle seller shook his head, he did not understand the behavior of children today.
"Keep me how?" he asked, still with a giggle stuck on his lips.
The sky was difficult to understand the meaning of his laughter. Between fear or pretending to look unafraid.
He was confused as to what to answer. The sky pulled Airi's clothes. His teeth spoke without a sound 'how?'
Airi shakes.
Again the sky swallowed. It seems, it is free that this is done. No one will believe it. Maybe this is how Airi has been feeling all along. It is free to open your mouth, it is better to be silent without doing anything.
The sky was deep, it bit its lower lip. The tail of her eyes constantly glanced at Airi. It was also a pity that Airi was left here for too long. He might have fainted.
With the sky answered. "I don't know, sir."
He came back laughing. The sky could see the eyes of everyone around him. They laughed at him, as if saying he was stupid and crazy. His eyes seemed to speak of the sky as a liar. His heart was again wounded. Maybe this is what Airi has been feeling all along.
No one believes, and to consider himself a liar is painful.
"Where to play again, don't joke with your parents."
There was no other choice, Sky brought Airi to go away. Just thinking about it Heaven could not imagine what Airi felt like? With a fragile and empty heart he was able to survive to this extent.
"We can't save people, Ri. We are not angels of death, let alone God."
"We don't have God's power to change someone's destiny."
DUARR!!
The sound of explosions was heard from a distance. Followed by a burning fire. Allegedly, the explosion came from a chicken noodle cart they had just met. Gas exploded and flames burned the wagon, including those around it. They did not escape the flame. The victim was burned in the evacuation. Heavy and minor injuries were taken to the hospital.
Survived with severe injuries or died quickly on the way.

Destiny has been determined, both good and bad were written before we were born. Whatever God gives us, that is what we have to accept. Because no matter what the path, it is definitely the best for our lives. No matter what process we go through, it will be worth the results we get. Don't give up is the key to achieving something.
