In modern times, box objects resemble downstream cubes, either where they are headed. The tall buildings were towering like giant spikes clinging to the earth. A large city that is very densely populated, busy with their respective box-shaped tools that can be lit.
I'm used to living in a village far from the reach of technology, our village is very much rubbed. The buildings in our village are not like in the cities, only on a wooden platform and covered with straw to protect us from the rain.
Coming from a very distant village to work for the family in the village, I was like someone who was clumsy to see something that had not been imagined all this time by me.
One week ago, I decided to migrate to a distant village or town. My parents got sick, I had to step in to support the family.
I live in an old house made of wood, but my house is big enough to live in by three people.My brother usually takes care of my mother, currently he is working in the market.
"Where are you going, son?" Someone lying limp on the haystack asked me, it's my mother.
"Lutfi will go to the village or town to work, ma'am." I replied while packing the necessary items.
"So, I'm sending you a message to always be careful, son. Don't forget this village, come back if you have time" my mother who was lying limp tried to let out her voice, before long she fell asleep.
I stood up to my mother, and covered the sleeping mother "I will not forget this village and all that is here, just relax my mother will return."
Something in my head, just remembered there was something I had to pick up in the barn. Supplies should last for the next three days.
In a barn I saw a book that looked very old covered with dust. The book looked so dirty, I opened the thick pages and put the book in my bag, maybe it will be useful someday.
I said goodbye to my sister and told her to take care of my mother. He shouldn't have worried.
I walked out of the house and said goodbye for the last time "I'm going Mom, brother"
My destination was the nearest village or town to the west, I left at four in the morning.
I continued walking, a fresh breeze pounding my face. It was so cold, luckily I was wearing thick clothes.
Two hours had passed I kept my feet up, through the dense forest. There are a lot of animals doing their activities. The monkeys hung to seek food, and the herds of elephants were playing with water.
The sun began to rise, shining in the darkness. The light hit my skin, it was so warm. It felt like the cold I felt before was gone.
I paused for a moment, straightened my legs and opened the supply of tempeh I had brought from home. I sat beside the river that was flowing non-stop, finishing off my breakfast rations. I have to weigh in to be enough for the next three days.
Thirty minutes passed, I had finished my meal. I took out a drink bottle made of bamboo, and filled it with the clear waters of the river, and drank it.
I continued my current journey at exactly seven in the morning, the sun kept rising warming the rest of the cold night. Keep walking west to find settlements either villages or towns to find work.
Actually, I've been worrying about something ever since. Not infrequently in this dense forest appeared wild animals such as tigers and others. I kept hoping not to meet him.
Four hours have passed, running continuously. My legs feel numb, but I'm used to them. So I've been a little trained to walk.
I walked on a very high meadow, I had a bit of trouble getting through it. But after a few hours, the calf-high meadow passed after thirty minutes of walking.
The sound of very heavy water, I immediately ran to make sure. Sure enough it was a waterfall, I immediately stopped by to rest my feet that were tired of walking. I took off my hot sandals and soaked them in the trench of the waterfall.
The splash of the waterfall hit my face, it was so refreshing.
Take a moment to enjoy the beautiful view.
I took out the supplies, I accidentally took out the book that looked ancient, I picked it up and sat leaning under a huge tree.
I enjoyed my meal while listening to the endless watering, as if it was ringing forever.
The book was on my lap, out of curiosity, I tried to open it. It's so weird, I don't know what language it is. But even more strangely, I could understand and read the book.
One page I opened, I was so nervous to read it.
O you who read this book, know that we have...
I haven't finished reading it, suddenly the book is closed and shining, it's so beautiful. An engraving engraving on the cover of the book shone blue. I didn't understand what was happening, but somehow I didn't panic too much.
Usually, if I see a cockroach that is the size of a fist, I have been flushed running without thinking about anything.
Perhaps because of the beauty of the book, it floated and shone. It was as if the surroundings had darkened, and the book was the only one that shone.
I couldn't blink looking at him, but before long the book fell. I caught him immediately, and saw him.
But suddenly I felt a terrible earthquake, I fell to the ground. Trying to stand with the help of the tree beside me, I quickly put the book in my bag.
The earthquake was never finished, I continued to hold tightly to the tree trunk that was firmly planted on the ground.
Not long after, the earthquake stopped. We're used to earthquakes, but it's probably the worst earthquake I've ever felt. I became worried about the house people.
But fortunately our place is far from the sea, I believe the earthquake could potentially cause a tsunami.
I rested for a moment to calm myself down, took the water from the trench and drank it. I took it more to stock up on supplies to hold on until tomorrow afternoon.
I continued on, forcing my feet to step. Walking in the wet forest, but tired it paid off with the scenery I saw.
It didn't feel like five hours had passed, and the sun was beginning to set. I immediately panicked to find a decent place to spend the night, looking for firewood and catching fish in the river.
I rested near the river after searching for the firewood I needed, since we walked down the river from the waterfall earlier.
