MY LOVE IS SHACKLED WITH LIES

32. Overnight in the Forest Again

Overnight in the Forest Again

“We rest and sleep here. Like yesterday, guys set up tents and for girls to sit down. This time there is no cooking show, right?” krisna.

They're all patting. They know their food can only be eaten once.

“One more time, Erik, Friska, and Jeny are looking for firewood for a campfire. You guys are cold too, right?” ask Krishna.

“Iya kak.” says Erik.

Erik, Jeny and Friska went looking for wood. They were looking for firewood around the tent.

“Fris, I'm so relieved. It's almost done. How are you?” said Erik.

“Sama Rik's. All is unexpected. But a wet shirt like this makes me cold and can't stand it anymore.” said Friska holding her shirt.

As long as they searched for wood, Jeny did not utter a word. Erik and Friska actually wanted to invite him to a chat.

“You're still sad Jen?” ask Erik. Jeny looked at him cynically.

“Don't take care of me. I don't need your attention.” said Jeny.

“Eh, I'm just the name. You're still heartbroken huh?” asked Erik teasingly.

“Ngak. Jeny is not heartbroken. I don't like Krishna or Rudi either. Just so you know yes. I already have a boyfriend. She is not one school with me.” Jeny said angrily.

Erik and Friska just shook their heads. Jeny is indeed a girl who likes to play the heart of a man. Erik himself was a little angry to hear it because he was a guy.

Now who still lives in his mind whether Rudi is like Jeny or vice versa. Jeny walked in front leaving Erik and Friska.

“Rik why are you quiet?” ask Friska.

“I mrsel Fris, I was once amazed by Jeny. I realize beauty is not everything.” said Erik. Friska was silent.

“By the way you are like Krisna?” ask Erik.

“What's the way?” Friska asked back.

“You like Krishna, right?” ask Erik.

Friska just kept quiet thinking about Erik's question.

“You're in love huh?” erik asked with a laugh.

“Ah, you don't pretentious.” said Friska would not admit it.

Friska and Erik laughed together. When they returned, Krishna looked at them with a flat expression. Krishna's heart hurt when he saw them together. He envies Erik who always gets Friska's attention. Let alone the attention of Friska, talk only Krishna never.

Krisna was very sad when she remembered it. Krishna only daydreams when his friends make a bonfire. He sits alone. Suddenly he remembered what he was doing in the cave.

He remembered when he apologized and promised Friska. He was big on why he could do it. All this time he's been a man of prestige. He was also confused as to why he had to make a promise with Friska. He looked at his injured palm. At once his face was red and he looked at Friska then.

“Am I in love? Is this what it feels like to fall in love?” ask Krishna in my heart.

Krisna asked him that many times. Krisna tried to guess her feelings. His body seemed to tremble and something soft crept on his skin until it reached his chest.

As he imagined Friska's face, he felt a speck of peace coming with him. Then after that only Friska and Friska were pictured in his mind. Krishna tried to convince me again that this was love. Now she is convinced that she is in love with Friska. I don't know why he doesn't know.

“Maybe this is love.” murmured.

But all he did from yesterday was guess between two choices: right or wrong. Krishna only dared to guess how Friska and Erik were related.

The more he guessed, the more troubled he thought about the possibility of them dating. Krisna's heart was bitter when she thought about it. But he also can't lie to his feelings that grow with time.

“Do they love each other?” Krishna again hesitated in his heart.

He hesitates to declare his love. She was afraid that Friska would reject her. He was afraid that Erik also loved Friska. Krisna was confused as to what to do. Patiently he approached his friends. He put his hand on his chest. He tries to undo his intention to express love to Friska.

“How?” krisna asked a little glumly.

“It's done. What do we want to eat?” ask Aldi.

“We look for those near here. Irwan keep the tent, the others we are looking for food together.” said Krisna.

“I don't want to. I want to be here.” said Jeny.

Krishna looked at. Jeny's face was pouting and lethargic like that of a hungry and exhausted person.

“Ya. You stay here.” said Krisna.

Krishna, Friska, Erik and Aldi walked along the dark path. Friska holds the flashlight and Krishna holds the scythe.

After walking far enough they finally found a horde of banana trees. Friska directed her flashlight up the tree. There are many trees that bear fruit, but none mature. Then Friska pointed the flashlight at another horde of trees not far away.

“That's no yellow!” shout Aldi.

They walked closer to the tree. Friska illuminated the fruit. Right, the banana is ripe. All the bananas were almost ripe. Erik cut down the not-so-big banana tree and cut the fruit stalk off from the tree.

“Let's go back. This is enough.” Aldi said.

“Wait.” says Krisna. Krishna checked the banana.

“This banana is very hard. It's a stone banana. In it many seeds are almost like guava. It tastes sweet, but the flesh is only a little.” said Krishna.

“So we search again huh kak?” ask Aldi. Krishna just nodded.

“Then this banana was brought or not?” ask Erik.

“Bring it. I want that banana kok.” said Friska.

Friska continued to illuminate the top of some banana trees. They walked away from the banana grove to look for other banana groves. Finally they found the banana they were looking for about five meters from the spot.

The banana ripens even if only on the top. About five combs and two of the top combs are yellow and some have been eaten by animals.

It was Krishna's turn to cut down the tree. The tree is quite big. Krishna cut it down from the side only and intended to push the tree. But after being pushed, the tree does not fall.

Aldi helped Krishna to tear down the tree. After the tree almost collapsed or tilted, Krishna cut the banana stalk. The banana looks big. Then they come back.

“Eh snapper.” said Erik stopped Krishna walking.

“Why?” ask Krishna.

“That was removed first bananas that have been eaten by animals. Later Jeny does not want to eat anymore.” said Erik.

Friska lit up the banana and Krishna cut off some of the rotting bananas. Erik and Krishna took the banana and Aldi brought the banana. Friska had a flashlight. It was with great pleasure that they had their food back in the tent.

“Finally we can eat again.” Aldi said.

“But these bananas are a lot of which are still raw.” Erik said.

“All is good if we are hungry. I already have a plan.” Aldi said then laughed.

“What plan?” krisna asked in curiosity.

“Ya plan to eat this banana in my way.” said Aldi still with his laughter that makes the silence of the night disappear.
