Kosan Dwellers?

My village (Extra Part 2)

At about 7 pm my father took out his onthel bike, not as usual. Because usually my father gowes must be every morning. I looked at my father who was cool himself parked his bike in the front yard.

"Where are you going, sir?" Askaqua.

"You're going to the Sacred. There is a TNI missing," my father replied briefly but clearly. Then he pedaled his bike alone to the Temple with a flashlight in his hand.

At home I fixate myself. So the status written by the Ika is true? He said, there was one of the TNI who was camping around the lost Temple.

Gone out?? Meaning how the hell? I still don't understand.

I remember the herd of soldiers who stopped on the side of the road when I left for school yesterday, apparently those who are currently in the Holy Land to camp?

As I told you in the previous episode, that in Keramat there is a large area of former Pert*mina oil drilling that residents use to dry rice. Well, that's where they set up tents to carry out their service. I don't know what exactly it is called. The point is they are new soldiers who are in ospek, that is the term. hopefully you understand yaa 😅

Soldiers down the village?

The village ngabdi army?

Soldiers build villages? 😅

The point is yes. They were a new army camped out and it happened to be the insistence that their battalion chose to live in the next few days, precisely in the area of the sacred tomb.

But only a few days they are in the Holy, in fact one of them is missing? Whither? Wh why?

At first I didn't think. Because what's missing is a grown man. If a child is missing, it may be natural. There may be wewe or wewe gombel or even a real kidnapper who kidnaps her. Well this is an adult man whose age may be around 30 years. Where did he go?

Usut had a mouthpiece, he said the soldier, call it Bambang yes, disappeared shortly after ashar, around 4 pm.

According to his friends, they were initially cleaning the sacred cemetery during the day. From that afternoon, the Bambang already looked lethargic. They cleaned the graves by plucking unkempt grass around the cemetery and also saw branches from trees that had spread disturbing the path of the pilgrims.

Around 3 o'clock, they had already completed the agenda of cleaning the burial area and resting. They sit as they please in the area of the former drilling land to release fatigue. Some are just sitting around relaxing, some are lying down, some prefer bathing to clean the body. At 4 p.m., all members were asked to march to gather. And at that time the Bambang did not exist.

All his friends are confused, where is Bambang??

Towards Maghrib, all the members prepared to enter their respective tents. Until one of them dimly watched Bambang walk alone from the direction of the balong. Kontan the member shouted saying that Bambang was back.

"Hey it's Bambang, it's Bambang!!"

His shout managed to make the other members who had already entered into the tent come out again.

Without guilt or other strange thoughts, Bambang came to the crowd with an ordinary face, as if nothing had happened. But it was clearly different from the astonished faces of his friends as if asking, 'Where have you been?'

"Where are you from, Bang?? How did it come from there?" Asked one of the squad members pointing towards the direction of the balong.

"I slept there earlier," answered Bambang flatly, then wandered into his tent without regard to the curious faces of his friends.

His friends were astonished. Though they had already left the balong area in Bambang, and there was no Bambang there. Where exactly did he come from?

NOTE :

BALONG is a kind of artificial lake that is not too big but deep enough/water shelter/fish farming place.

This is an example of balong. I got it from google 😅

Perhaps in a place where you have different languages in calling 'ballong', yes this is what it looks like.

But the balong near Keramat impressed yaa. Because around him there are many long tares. Maybe there are a lot of snakes hiding behind the bushes. Hiiy.
