MY LOVE IS SHACKLED WITH LIES

Friska Found

Judah, Vika, and Beni approach Krishna. They observed the surface of the ravine being scratched by a small object. Yuda's eyes went down the bottom of the ravine.

“Could be so she fell around here. Let's search again.” said Yuda.

They're walking around the place. Vika uses a small wooden stick to scrape together the pile. Suddenly Vika shouted.

“I found the shoes! But only one.” said Vika showed the shoes he found.

“Iya. Those are Friska's shoes! Not wrong again.” Krishna was so happy to find a bright spot.

“Come spirit!!! We'll soon meet.” Yuda gave spirit.

Beny was sitting where the shoes were found. Suddenly he saw scattered leaves forming a line even though it looked shabby. Beni ran away. He approached a small hole. His eyes grew wider as he looked at the hair-like fibers.

“I found it!” shout Beni.

Yuda, Vika and Krishna ran up to Beni. Beni cleaned the dried leaves in that small hole. Friska's unconscious face. Krishna is still dumbfounded. His body stiff can not move to see the state of Friska.

Beni helped Vika pull Friska's hand until her body came out of the narrow hole. Yuda checks Friska's vital condition. Yoga breathes a sigh of relief. He orders Vika to treat Friska's wounds. In contrast to Krishna, he was still dumbfounded in the entanglement of worry.

“Hei boy! He just fainted. He is still awarded good luck.” said Yuda patted Krisna's shoulder.

Krishna woke up from his daydream. He immediately approached Friska who was lying on the surface of the abyss. Vika straightened Friska's legs and took the medicine out of her bag. Yuda tells the team to stop searching because Friska has been found.

“Krishna? You lost someone like this for the first time?” ask Vika.

“Iya brother. I realized I was still a kid. I can only panic. Even seeing Friska unconscious my mind is no longer because of brother. I feel devastated kak.” said Krisna honestly.

“It's okay. I know how you feel. We used to be like that too. You still lack experience aja.” said Beni.

“Your partner will be more sensitive and calm as you grow up.” Yuda said with a smile.

“You're his girlfriend huh?” ask Vika while observing the look on Krishna's face.

“Iya brother. Just soan this morning.” said Krisna blushed embarrassed.

“Yes it's natural that you are that sweet.” said Beni with a laugh.

“Kris, let's smile. Panic loss.” said Vika invites Krisna to smile.

Krisna smiled even though she was still worried about Friska. Vika painstakingly cleaned Friska's wound and bandaged it with a bandage. Suddenly something caught Vika's attention.

“Eh, he wears a necklace with a locket. Good you know.” said Vika holding the pendant.

“Kepo nih. Whose picture is it? Try look!” said Beni.

Vika opened it slowly. After opening perfectly, Vika's eyes widened. A few seconds passed, Vika's eyes glazed over.

“Why?” ask Yuda curiously.

“See her photo.” Reply Vika briefly.

Yuda and Beni approached and looked at the photo on the pendant. Krishna doesn't want to miss. It's also approaching. Yuda and Beni were sad to see the photo. Krishna doesn't know what they're thinking.

Krisna only knew there were two photos of men on both sides of the heart-shaped pendant. A middle-aged man was smiling cheerfully and a young man about the same age as Judah was also smiling cheerfully.

“We know them. Rio and Om Fadli.” Yuda said.

“Yes as you felt earlier. At that time, we and a group from Jogja climbed the mountain along with a mission to clean up plastic waste, until finally the accident occurred. It was raining so hard, the wind was blowing too. We set up camp above. We panicked when we heard that Fadli slipped while tightening the straps so that his tent was not carried away by the wind.” Vika told me about the incident.

“Ya may indeed have been the destiny of the Almighty, in the midst of the sudden bad weather, a thick fog enveloped us until our visibility was no more than a meter. Rio's trying to find Fadli. But it seems he was also unlucky. We could only shout calling their names in the middle of the storm. The leader of the group at that time told us not to rashly look for them so that the victims did not increase.” Beny added the story.

“The storm lasted not long. Only about half an hour. But it traumatized us for months. After the storm subsided, we and the troupe looked for Fadli and Rio. The search continued for quite a while. Until we finally found them in lifeless condition. All crying hysterically.” Vika said with tears in her eyes.

“They are good people who have high spirits. Om Fadli is a senior figure who becomes a role model. Om Fadli is very totality in guiding the soul of our leadership, he is also a person who loves the environment. Once upon a time he wanted to die in the wild because he wanted to unite with nature. We thought he was just kidding. In the end, his wish was granted at that time. However, we never thought it would be that fast.” said Yuda also reminiscing about the event.

“Perhaps Fadli was Friska's father. I've heard that his father died on the climb.” said Krishna.

“True too. We still remember when we drove him to his final resting place, there was a little girl who was crying sobbing while screaming. His mother kept him calm, but he was not deterred. So, the girl is already this big now. And,, it turns out he followed in his father's footsteps.” said Yuda.

“Udah used to noatalgia yes. Try me to wake up with water.” said Vika.

Vika splashed water on Friska's face. Slowly Friska opened her eyes. His hands reflexively wanted to hold his head wrapped in bandages. He looked around.

“Kkk...Sister Krishna?” Friska stammered the name of Krishna.

Looks like Friska's head is still dizzy. Krisna hugged Friska. Friska was still gathering her consciousness.

“Eh, spit it. Friska let me drink first.” said Vika while thrusting a bottle of mineral water.

Friska downed the white water Vika gave her greedily. After that he smiled with relief at the people who helped him.

“Thank you for the help.” said Friska.

“By the way I'm still wondering why you could be in that narrow hole?” ask Yuda.

Friska told me everything she went through. Yuda, Beni, and Vika smiled at the story. While Krisna even miris imagine the pain because of the event. Krisna felt that everything Friska went through was not easy and definitely hurt.

“You are tough, brave and smart like om Fadli.” Yuda said.

Friska was shocked when her father's name was called. They are confused as to why they know.

“Sorry, we opened your necklace pendant.” said Vika.

“Nha happened to be we know the two of them.” said Beni.

Friska held the pendant she usually put in her shirt. A few moments later he put the locket in again.

“OK, if we have continued the journey before dark. Friska can walk?” ask Yuda.

Friska tried to stand up with great difficulty. However, many bruises on his legs caused pain until Friska staggered. Krishna swiftly caught Friska's almost collapsed body.

“Please help his girlfriend. We are looking for an easier route even though it is a bit far yes.” said Yuda while laughing mischievously.

They started walking. Friska and Krishna looked at each other. Friska's face turned red and she looked down. Krisna smiled happily to be with the person she loved again. Krishna took Friska's body and walked together.

Throughout the trip they did not talk much. Friska was still thinking about her dream when she fainted earlier. Chris was busy with his thoughts. In his heart he thought he did not know anything about Friska let alone his sadness all this time. Krisna is haunted by the guilt of mistreating Friska.

Krisna tightened her hand to make Friska look at each other with her face. Chris smiled as sweetly as possible.
