My Husband My Pilot: Plane Crash Tragedy

Chapter 4. Survive

Nightfall. Their first night stranded on an uninhabited and remote island. This afternoon, after filling their bellies, they began to move into the forest in search of tree branches, roots and leaves for them to make into a simple hut. Alan and Kansha were also looking for firewood to make the fire, so that there would be little illumination and warm them up. Although the hut looks uncomfortable, at least tonight they have a place to sleep.

“Hey, can not?” asked Kansha while chuckling. It's been thirty minutes, but Alan hasn't managed to make a fire.

“Creating fire in the most conventional way like this is enough 10 or 20 minutes?” alan said as he continued to swipe the wood. Kansha's laughter grew.

Alan continued to turn the wood to the other wood. Make friction so that the fire can light up. Finally, with great effort, Alan succeeded. There was a spark of wood that was swiped Alan and Alan rubbed it with small dry branches. It takes a long time to make it big.

“Wow, great.” Praise Kansha while clapping. Alan only smiled proudly.

“I can't believe we're like going back to antiquity. Making a hut from the roots of a tree and making a fire with twigs.” Kansha nodded.

“You how else. We can only be patient and grateful for what happened.” Alan replied soberly and then put both his palms on the bonfire that was now burning.

“Put both your hands.” Decree Alan. Kansha did what Alan did.

“I thought, the night would not be this scary.but the fact that on this vast and remote island is just the two of us, it feels unreasonable. I'm even afraid to just turn my head.” Complain Kansha.

“If you are afraid then complain.” Said Alan.

“I told you I was scared.“ said Kansha.

"Look around first" said Alan. He looked up and Kansha began to obey.

Kansha instantly gaped in amazement when she saw the cluster of stars in the sky. The moon looked full. And the luminous sea of night in the light of the moon. I don't think he has seen this beautiful sight.

“Woah.” Kansha gaped in amazement.

“People of antiquity, always saw the star as an indicator of the direction of the wind. People today, always see the star as a rare privilege of life. Because in urban areas like Jakarta, seeing stars as bright and clear as this is very difficult.” Said Alan.

“You see, the night sky looks like a pretty painting. Clusters of stars that like splitting the night sky, the moon that looks full and the light that refracts on the surface of the sea. If the painters say, maybe it is the definition of a beautiful romantic painting. And everything, is the favor that God gave us.” Continue Alan.

“So, if you feel afraid when night falls, then look up. There are stars that will always accompany your journey every night like stars that accompany the moon.”

Tonight, two human children are admiring the beauty of nature. Proof of the greatness and greatness of the Creator. As the saying goes, in every affliction there is always a lesson.

Morning arrived, after the awkward atmosphere about sleeping together in the hut. Finally they can fall asleep with the agreement of the existence of their respective territorial lines. Alan made a bulkhead between his bed with Kansha from dried leaves and roots. Despite being in a difficult atmosphere with a makeshift shade, Alan did not want to break the limit. He's trying to preserve Kansha's honor.

This morning, they intend to find food like tubers to eat. Their wounds were still painful, yet they could still endure it. How else, they must eat or else they will suffocate from hunger. Not to mention they had to heal his wounds. Although not taking drugs, at least by eating, their bodies will heal gradually.

They entered the forest to the south of the island. The forest on the island is still very thick. The longer it goes in, the trees get closer together. Even less sunlight, but what makes them amazed is, this forest feels still clean— in the sense that it has not been touched by the naughty hands of humans.

“According to you, what food can we eat?” kansha asked Alan who was walking in front of her.

“Anything, besides stone and earth.” Answer Alan indifferently.

“If I give you a caterpillar, would you?” tawar Kansha chuckled.

“Originally the caterpillar made steak first, it may be considered.” Alan is relaxed.

“You intend to make our hut feel like a restaurant?”

“Good idea. So if we get stranded again, we don't have to worry about hunger anymore.”

“Crazy basics.” decih Kansha. Alan laughed loudly.

They kept walking into the forest. But they have not found what they can eat. Their stomachs kept on rumbling.

“I swear, if we can get food, if we are stranded again I will realize the hut like the restaurant of your dreams.” Said Kansha starting to mess up.

Alan stopped and turned his back on Kansha who also stopped. “You're serious?” alan raised his eyebrows.

“Where ever did I lie.” Answer Kansha.

“If so, it looks like you have to fulfill your promise earlier. View.“Alan pointed at the cassava tree that was not far away.

Kansha eyes widen, “Finally, yeay!” exclaim Kansha happy.

“Remember, your promise was.” Alan said to remind.

Kansha pretended to forget, “Where are ya?” ask Kansha indifferently.

“If you are going to make a hut feel like a restaurant.” Alan's light held amusedly.

“Emang I ever said that?” kansha asked ostensibly confusedly to Alan.

“About 3 minutes ago.” Help Alan.

“Looks like I forgot. I am a person who has short-term memory. So forget it.” Kansha said casually and approached the cassava tree

Alan only shook his head with a smile and then approached Kansha who was crouching looking at the cassava tree in front of him. “Ald-age, just this time I feel happy to see cassava tree.” Kansha said in amazement.

“So understand, how valuable every sustenance that has been given to us?” asked Alan who was crouching.

Kansha nodded, “Lan, unplug dong.” Pinta Kansha's.

“Together yes.” Alan Pinta.

“Cass tree only time should be helped anyway. You are a boy.” Kansha.

“Nona, if you forgot. My body is still full of wounds. And it still hurts, just in case you forget what happened to us. Let me remind you, ki—“ Alan's speech was truncated.

“OK, okay. Don't talk about the incident again. Make goosebumps only.” Lady Kansha.

Alan and Kansha then go hand in hand. They worked together to pull that cassava tree. Alan was right, their wounds were still wet and it still hurt. Then with all the energy they had and the sweat that had flooded, the cassava tree managed to be uprooted.

Kansha's eyes stared in amazement at the huge-looking cassava. “Lan, this could be a day's meal.” Kansha. Alan nodded.

“But just in case, we also have to find food again.” Said Alan.

Then Alan and Kansha again walked while Alan carrying the cassava they managed to pull it out. Before long, they found a banana tree. But the tree did not bear fruit yet. Bananas still look raw.

“Yah, Lan. Still not mature.” Sad Kansha.

Alan did not answer, he saw the banana and then touched it. “I think about two or three more days can be eaten. But we better cut it now. We can ripen it in the hut only.” Kansha.

“Hopefully. Instead of us leaving it in the tree, I'm afraid it will be eaten by animals.” Alan's words made Kansha freeze.

“By the way about animals. There are no wild animals here, right?” ask Kansha parno.

Alan who was staring at the banana instantly turned to look at the frightened Kansha. “Kurasa no. But I'm not too sure. Chances are about 60 %.” Alan was doubtful.

“So?” Ask Kansha needs certainty.

“Maybe there, may not.” Obviously Alan. “Why are you afraid?” alan turned to look at Kansha who was beside him.

“Of course scared. Time has escaped the plane crashed and even entered the tiger's mouth, it is not funny.” Sahut Kansha.

“So if there really is a tiger here, I think I will bait you first. Your meat is softer. Hahaha.” Alan laughed.

Kansha hit Alan's shoulder hard making Alan complain of pain, “Hei, this is still wound tofu!” yelling Alan grimaced.

“Measuring him don't talk carelessly dong.” Tukas Kansha is upset.

“Iya yes joking. Sorry yes.” Said Alan.

Kansha looked at Alan who was staring at her as well. Somehow it was like there was an electric shock on his body. Alan too, then he woke up. He had already despised the eyes on Kansha that were not lawful to him.

“Astagfirullah.” Alan said.

“Why?” Kansha.

“Unaware I stared at you long ago. I should have lowered my gaze. Sorry yes.” Alan felt guilty.

“Indeed why? Not just looking at someone?” kansha asked not understanding.

“But you are not halal for me. In my religion, of course, it is forbidden. Her name is zina mata.” Obviously Alan.

Kansha nods, “Oh, I've never heard of it.”

“In Islam, men must subordinate their views to women who are not their muhrim. Because if not, it could be the beginning of zina.”

“Why? Just a look.” Tukas Kansha is confused.

“Beginning from sight, will appear a sense of interest. Then in the mind continue to imagine a figure that is not his muhrim. Then they accidentally start touching, starting from the hands, then the face and so on. Until they forget the limits.”

“So from the halmeh and no matter how small, can bring greater danger. Better to prevent it. Because if it's melted, the dry will be long. That is the concept of Islam. We respect women like expensive jewelry that can only be enjoyed for their rightful owners.” Obviously Alan.

“Your religions are quite interesting yes.” Praise Kansha.

“Pulls to Islam?” alan asked Kansha.

“Your question is suddenly once.” Answer Kansha. “Let's cut the banana first. I'm already hungry.” Kansha diverted the conversation.

Alan smiled with Kansha's reply. Kansha is not Muslim. He had told Alan last night, when Kansha asked him what he was doing when Alan wet some of his limbs. When Alan said he was ablution because he was going to pray, Kansha only said that he was not Muslim.

“Try seeing in your doraemon bag. There is no folding knife or anything sharp.” Ask Alan.

" There can't be, if anything, why not from yesterday we use to make a hut." said Kansha. He remembered yesterday's incident, he had to pull the roots of the tree, the leaves until they were released.

"Try it first. Maybe yesterday we didn't look at it very carefully." Alan is still thinking positively.

Kansha relented, “We see, what items will be removed from my bag.” Kansha said as she opened her waist bag. His hand was looking for what Alan said. Then his hand stopped stirring his bag, then looked at Alan who had been waiting.

“Ta-da!” kansha exclaimed while taking out a folding knife.

“Woah. Allow ada!” alan was happy.

“True.” Sahut Kansha was no less happy.

“Nih.” Kansha handed the knife to Alan. Then close the zipper of his bag again.

“But why did you bring up all folding knives?” alan asked while cutting a banana.

“Um, maybe I accidentally brought it. I have to go outside the island. Then I thought I should bring something for self-protection and I brought a folding knife. My friend recommended it.” Obviously Kansha is carefree.

“Friends? Wh who? Nana?”

Kansha shook her head, “Not. He's the same guy who gave me that life vest.”

“It turns out you have another friend. Boy?”

“Yes. He was one of my senior-level brothers in college. Chairman BEM. Great right?” exclaim Kansha proud.

“Your great friend, not you.” Alan Jahil's.

Kansha wafts her smile, “Aish.”

“There is a development of Na?” asked a young man with tears in his eyes who had been restless.

“Not yet kak.” Answer Nana lethargic.

The young man sighed softly. He just returned from Germany. And when he returned to the Fatherland, he had to hear bad news that made his heart break instantly.

“Kansha from pas before leaving is already strange brother. He seemed to be just saying goodbye. My feelings are not good either. But I thought it was just my feeling. He knew, two hours later he could hear that the plane he was riding lost contact.” Anna was sad.

“Secret he's alive. She's the toughest woman you know. Yes, Kansha must have survived.” The young man calmed himself. Name's Ruben.

“Sister Ruben, I remembered something. Before leaving, Kansha said she wanted me to say hello to her parents. Brother Ruben can help me meet his parents?” asked Nana expectantly.

Ruben sighs, “Suami Williams wife is too busy doing business. Brother just heard that they managed to acquire one of the broadcasting companies in South Korea. There is a possibility they are in Korea at the moment.” replied Ruben.

Nana's shoulders drooped, “Kak, don't you have a way to meet them? I mean, I'm afraid it's Kansha.”'s last message Nana was trembling.

“We should also inform them of Kansha's disappearance. Although they no longer care about kansha, they are still her parents.” Nana.

Ruben thought hard, “Lusa later, there will be a business meeting at one of our company-owned hotels. I don't think it's possible that Andrian Williams and Grace Williams were absent. So brother will take you there.” Reuben.

Nana nodded. “Good idea kak.” He smiled brightly.
