^^^"I realized slowly I was getting used to my loneliness but your presence was still very much felt."^^^
...----------------...
Tania opened the room door and instantly the distinctive fragrance of the perfume she was so familiar with stung her nose. She realized one thing that it was the fragrance of her lover's perfume, more precisely her future husband who the day before the wedding, death had already taken one of them.
Tania ignored the perfume. He knew Mike was nearby. He put his bag on the table, then headed to the bathroom to clean his body.
"Then what ? do I have to cry, lament the current state of affairs and ask Mike to show his aura in front of me ?"
Tania sat on the edge of the bed after she finished getting dressed. A moment flashed in his memory the words of one of his co-workers last afternoon.
"Someone was looking for you. He just left when I said Ms. Tania was out for lunch."
"Who ? Is he a patient ?" tanya Tania was curious.
"I don't know for sure. But I think I know him."
"You mean ?" tanya Tania was getting curious.
"Yes, I feel familiar with his face. But I don't know where I saw or met him" explained Nur, Tania's co-worker at the clinic.
Tania tried to ignore that. The strange things he was experiencing right now did not interfere with his concentration at all. However, he must familiarize himself with things that invite question marks like that. He promised both his parents that he would be fine.
He grabbed his cellphone and immediately called his mother, to let her know that his first day in Jakarta he had immediately worked back at his old clinic.
Her father and mother were happy to hear what Tania had told her.
"Praise God, Son. Keep up the spirit, yes," his mother's message.
After a few minutes of chatting with her parents and Bimo, her sister Tania then took the time to call Mike's mother.
The same thing was felt by Mike's mother after hearing Tania's story that he immediately returned to work in the old clinic.
Tania now looks free. Free from his suffering. Although it is only the first day, it seems like this is a business that can be fairly successful. Mike's father, mother, and mother did not ask anything other than hearing Tania's story and gave her one or two messages. He also started laughing cheerfully.
"Pray me, Ma," Tania asked Mike's mother, whom she called Mama.
"May I get through this."
"Of course, son," said the gentle mama.
...****************...
Tania ran alone and tried to get through the crowd. Not a few people he hit shouted cursing and cursing him but he did not care about them. He continued to run with all his strength through the dark night.
The roar of his nearly exhausted breath forced him to stop in front of an old building. He had no idea what the building was, he had never seen it before. There was a large tree standing firmly beside the building, making it look sinister and terrifying.
From a distance, the two extremely large and tall men who were chasing after him seemed to be getting closer. Out of reason, Tania shouted for help. But it seems futile. Not a single person passed by there. The atmosphere is really gripping. It's pitch-dark. Two-wheeled vehicles or four-wheeled vehicles also no one crossed the lonely road in front of the building.
The sound of crickets adds to the horror in the place is increasing.
"Where am I now ?" ask Tania to herself.
"What is this place ? Why is no one here ? Where else am I going ?"
He quickly rolled his eyes, looking around for perhaps a place the two would not have known if he had hidden himself.
His eyes found a mound of bush. Slowly he crawled closer to the bush in the corner of the building. It's the only place that's probably safe for him right now. If it was behind a tree, it would be very easy for them to find it, he thought.
Without thinking for a long time, Tania then laid her body inside the bush. Very clearly from behind the bush he saw that the two big men had been nearby. They set their sights on every corner of the building, looking for her whereabouts.
"We have to find him. This time he can't get away" said a person wearing all-black clothing. On its neck a white chain is fitted with an anchor-shaped hanger.
Tania's breathing sounds irregular because of the fear that dominates her. He closed his mouth when someone among them started walking around the area around the building and turned on the flashlight.
"What do you want them on me ? Who are they ?" tanya Tania in her heart. His heart was beating very fast as the man got closer to the bush where he lay and resigned.
His feet are starting to feel itchy. Somewhere he took off his high hills shoes, all he thought about was his safety. The shoes can be bought again.
"Tom, you pass next door. I'm through here."
Someone ordered another partner. Tania's getting scared. He wanted to end his life before they found him.
He didn't know what they were looking for. To be sure, they are bad people. It was impossible for their intentions to be good if this was how they looked for it.
His heart was pounding even more as one of them stood right beside the bush where he was lying. He wanted to scream, then get up and run the two bad guys.
"Not yet, we're still looking for him."
Tania heard clearly what the man had said just now. I don't know who called him, they're all bad people.
Again Tania saw clearly the body of the man who was getting closer to her, but her face could not be known because the man turned his back on her.
Over time the man got closer. One by one his steps back almost touched his waist. The man's flashlight circled the entire corner of the building, sometimes up a tree and then back to the corner of the building.
Without thinking long because so afraid of knowing his hiding, Tania closed her eyes and with the remnants of her strength she mentioned Mike's name.
Feeling like they were in a death hole if they found her, Tania eventually lost her mind.
"Mikeeeee... ."
Tania shouted so loudly that the man standing next to her was shocked and dropped his flashlight. Tania got up and tried with the remnants of her strength to run as fast as possible to avoid the sight of the two men.
But Tania's efforts failed. He did not know that one of them was five meters in front of him. The man caught her and quickly strangled her neck.
Finish my story today, thought Tania. His heart was beating very fast again. His breathing became more disordered, plus the man's loud giggles made him even more helpless. He resigned, his body was helpless.
"Mikeeeee, to,, to, to, help me, Mikeee,,, ."
