Abil sat in the row
in front, sitting right next to the driver. Estu, Dian and Hagia sat in parallel
in the middle of the car. While Mr. Tomo and 2 colleagues sit in
back part. At moderate speed, the driver drove his car, and,
down the winding road there and swooping.
So where are they going?
Clearly, they were all going to travel towards Abimantrana Village. A village, which never really existed.
While on the way to the village, still in the car, Hagia asked
to Abil in a soft whisper, "The people said, Abimantrana village
did he say there was none? How are we even going there?" Ask Hagia
Abil with a slow but still voice.
Actually, the question was Dian's, and then he told Hagia,
which was then passed on to Abil. And it feels natural if the second
the student became worried. Because they both know, every
the person they questioned earlier compactly confirmed, that the village
Abimantrana never existed. So if it is, then,
then...want to be taken away where are they now?
But in contrast to Hagia and Dian, Abil actually felt sad. Even
Abil told Hagia not to worry. Abil tried
calming Hagia by expressing her assumption, that Abimantrana Village
maybe it's a village that's really in the corners, so
its existence itself is not known to the public. Abil added
if he, Hagia, Estu and Dian would be very meritorious if he could
advance the village at the end of the story. Plus, Abimantrana Village
also a recommendation from the mother of the owner of the boarding house where Abil lived,
he is famous for his hospitality and generosity. So with all
the assumption just now, Abil wanted Hagia to stop worrying and believe it
to himself.
Hagia who had just heard the enlightenment from Abil, her thoughts began
open-ended. Abil's logical explanation made him feel calmer. Then
Hagia passed the message on to Dian with a slow whisper.
Both women are silent now.
As for Estu herself, right now her body was leaning backwards,
his eyes were closed, and his two folded arms crossed each other.
Besides Abil, it feels like Estu also enjoyed this trip.
If the journey has traveled 5 kilometers, they begin to enter the area
wild forest. The view they saw all around was
towering trees that fill the side of the road. The mood has also
turned to silence. Hardly to find the traffic
vehicle or local people looking out. By following
the direction of Mr. Tomo, Abil and others returned again to the original location where
the first time they arrived was the Abimantrana Forest.
Still following directions from Mr. Tomo, the car they were riding in began
the Abimantrana Forest. Go further. And getting away.
Tracing the forest that began to fog in every hunter.
Be surprised by the path of his village that goes into the forest, which even
the forest itself according to the taboo residents to enter, Hagia emboldened
he asked 3 foreign men who were behind him
he said, "Sir, this is really the location of his village into the forest like this?"
Of the three men, Mr. Tomo as a representative also replied, "Strange
yes mbak? But how is it, we are all from birth to this old age
down here. So there's no choice. But calm down, no need
apprehensive. Even in the woods, our village is safe. We guarantee it
safety mbak with other mbak friends until the KKN is finished."
Said Mr. Tomo explained as well as calm Hagia.
Not until there, Abil also expressed his teachings to Hagia.
Then followed a little story from 2 colleagues Pak Tomo about their village
the unpretentious. Which in the end made Hagia again feel
quieter. Dian who heard their conversation also started to lower the sense of taste
his worries. As for Estu, he was still asleep.
After successfully evoking all the questions that stuck, their car continued to go straight into the forest deeper.
From here it is known, that the abimantrana forest is the entrance gate to the village.

After quite a distance across the forest interior, the path there was finally
has reached the end. At this point, it is clear that the road field
it can no longer be passed by a vehicle, let alone a car
the size is big.
By telling him to get out of the car, Mr. Tomo also explained to Abil
foot. Abil and the others could not dodge, because with their eyes
their own heads, it was clear that the next route was on
are the pillars of tall trees covered in wild grass, which
no more cars could get through it.
At that moment, Abil had said to Mr. Tomo, why not
picked up by villagers on a motorcycle? But baby, baby,
mr. Tomo said that there were no residents in the
the village has a motorcycle. Mr. Tomo wishes Abil and the others
can understand that.
Agreeing not to dispute it, Abil and the others agreed to obey
tell Mr. Tomo. Then start getting out of the car one by one.
Shortly before Abil got out of the car, the driver was able to hold Abil by
saying, "Mas Abil, are you sure you want KKN in the middle of the forest like this? My
thought mending void aja mas. I am patiently waiting for recommendations from
campus, or find another location."
There is a good reason why the driver said so. Because I want to
however, the location where they stand today is indeed visible
not convincing, until it will give birth to feelings of worry. And
it's not just the driver who feels that.
Dian felt the same way. The atmosphere of the forest he was seeing
creating a sense of worry in his heart. But Dian who
a shy person cannot express his feelings. Especially
until rejecting KKN Abil's current plan. Because even if it's not so
knowing Abil, Dian knew that Abil was a good person, because he wanted to
accept him join and finance all his expenses during KKN.
For that reason, Dian was not able to protest. Especially
tetiba just said he wanted to get out of the group, which later even
ruining their KKN plan. So instead of grumbling, Dian chose
to strengthen the heart and strengthen oneself.
Telling his fears to Hagia his close friend won't help either. Possibly
at the beginning Hagia was the one who protested and grumbled the most.
But after being in the forest with all the obstacles, Hagia
it just looks excited. It feels natural, because Hagia is
women lovers of hiking. So instead of assuming that the present
he was heading to the KKN place, maybe Hagia even felt moderate
refreshing at this time.
Moreover, plus, with the wobble that came in a row from Abil, Mr. Tomo
as well as 2 other colleagues of Mr. Tomo, who finally made Hagia's mind
be calm. So Dian's choice was only one, strengthening the heart
and self-reinforcing.
And as for Estu, she had just woken up from her sleep. After coming out of
car, not a single sentence came out of his lips. Estu is
quiet men. Maybe it is that nature that makes him not
protested much. And honestly, Estu wasn't thinking about anything.
As for Abil himself, it was clear he would not give up on the circumstances. Although
seeing the fact that the village he will visit is located on the spot
unorthodox, still KKN this time is his plan. Abil is not
to cancel it and be ashamed. Because of his pride
that high, with a face full of confidence, Abil asserted
the driver doesn't have to worry.
After getting rid of himself will complete the task of KKN to completion, Abil also
get out of the car. Her sturdy face was greeted by Estu, Hagia, Dian, sir
Tomo and his 2 colleagues were already outside. All the shakes too
been issued. Once confirmed there is no equipment
left behind, Abil and the others say goodbye to the driver
thanked. Before the meeting, once
again, Abil told his driver not to worry. Abel
affirming that everything will be fine.
Then the driver turned the car around and went back home. Whereas
Abil and the others, continued their journey towards the village with
on foot.
SERIATE.
