When Asyik sipped his sweet tea. He saw the woman who kissed him sitting at the table next to him. The woman's appearance was already more presentable. But, Rival did not rub it when the eyes of the two met and the woman smiled at him.
The woman just sat in the restaurant. He didn't order food or drinks. He was afraid to be alone in the Bus, so he came out too. Because all bus passengers get off to just go to the bathroom, or eat and drink.
The woman still feels unsafe, she believes the criminals are still eyeing her. Sure enough, three pairs of eyes were observing the movements of the woman who kissed Rival suddenly.
"We're waiting for the right time and place." Saying one of the criminals to his friend, the three of them were on standby watching and watching the woman and Rival from inside his car.
Teett...
The sound of the bus horn sounded so loud, a sign that the bus would continue its journey. Passengers who go down to eat and drink, go back into the bus and sit on their own benches.
Rival was already sitting on his stool, leaning against the bench and closing his eyes. His two interlocking hands were placed on his backpack which was above his thigh.
The woman sat back on the bench next to Rival quietly. He did not want Rival to be disturbed by his presence. He should be calm and polite. He still hopes Rival can later be his savior from the criminals.
The woman sitting next to the original Rival was a jolly, slightly tomboyish woman. She was not like the calm and meek Rili.
The bus drove. Rival still closed both of his eyes, as if sleeping. While the woman next to Rival, always tried to steal a glance towards Rival. The bus lighting has been extinguished. Only the light of the full moon illuminated Bus, which was translucent from the glass not covered by the curtain.
The light of the full moon that pierced through the window pane of the car, reflected onto Rival's handsome face. Which makes anyone see it will be amazed because Rival's face is more handsome and glowing, but if observed clearly. The face showed sadness.
A moment the woman who kissed Rival was enchanted by him. He lingered on Rival's face whose eyes were closed. But, Rival knew that the woman beside him was watching him. He also moved his buttocks, changing slightly his sitting position tilted towards the window of the Bus.
As Rival changed his position, the woman gasped from her admiration for Rival. He sat up straight and stared straight ahead, watching the flat screen hanging on the bus performing songs. There are local songs Batak Toba, Batak mandailing and minang songs as well.
Suddenly the bus stopped in the middle of the forest. The passengers who had not slept, many wondered why the bus stopped in a place far from the settlement. Who would go down in the woods like this, or if there were any passengers who wanted to board this bus. That's what the bus passengers thought.
They do not know, that their bus tah overtaken and blocked. So that Mr. Driver stopped the bus.
3 Men of large and burly bodies. Get in the bus. Two people entered from the front door and one from the back door. Surely the three men were holding pistols in their own hands.
The atmosphere inside the Bus was suddenly tense and noisier. Some people shouted, some praying in their hearts, that they might survive the robbery. The passengers thought they were being robbed. The other passengers did not know that the three big men only wanted the woman next to Rival
Rival almost fell asleep, finally opening his eyes. When he felt the bus was tense, after the screams of other passengers. While the woman next to Rival was already scared to death. His heart was beating very fast, his body was trembling. The man who was chasing was already in front of him.
"Down, you're down!" the man said to him while pointing a gun at his head.
"The woman closed her eyes, she lowered her head by covering her ears with both hands. He refused to get off the bus. Rival who saw the unusual sight before him was taken aback. He looked towards the woman next to him who was already frightened and his eyes turned to look towards the villain.
The big-bodied man was upset, when the woman did not heed his word. So He posed a threat by firing his pistol bullets into the ceiling of the Bus, and penetrating into the atmosphere.
The atmosphere of the bus is getting worse. Many mothers cried for help, some cried and some fainted. No one dared to fight.
"Down, I count to three. If you don't come down, then this man's life will be lost." Say the villain with his bagis. He pointed his gun at Rival. Rival's heart seemed to be out of place, when the gun was already pointed at him.
"Yes Allah... Help us!" one of the passengers cried. Heard the other passengers noisy, and the criminal was afraid of another car passing suspiciously, as there was a car stopping in the forest. Then the man who was in the front of the car precisely near the driver. Ordered the car to walk in search of a deserted intersection and they turned to the road that was rarely passed.
They feel their actions are safe. The man facing Rival again threatened, by shooting the bus wall near his thigh. The sound of gunfire again frightened the passengers. Even the baby on the bus was crying.
Rival who raised his hand, looked towards the girl next to him who was already trembling. Pale lips, cold sweat poured out from his forehead and forehead. Rival couldn't bear to see it. The soul of his humanity thrashed out to help.
"Let's get off!" rival said to the woman next to him. The woman turned towards Rival with tears. Really, He was wayward but, He did not imagine that he would experience such a terrible event.
He saw the woman not moving from her seat. Finally Rival took the initiative to move first, He stood up.
"We're going down, but make sure the other passengers don't get hurt." Say Rival with a firm and loud tone.
"I don't need you to come down, I need this woman." Said the villain, still pointing the gun at Rival.
"You are stupid criminals. If I were you guys off. I will report it to the authorities." Rival's words provoked the villain.
"Sure, right he said. This man is his friend. It wasn't that they were the couple kissing for that long duration." Say another friend.
The man who pointed a gun at Rival was aware of his stupidity.
"You two get down quickly." he said. Rival and the woman who kissed him got off the bus. Surely the legs of the woman who kissed Rival were trembling while walking.
The bus rotated and hit the gas. Raising Rival, the woman who kissed Rival and the 4 criminals. 3 was threatening Rival and the woman and another one were in the car.
"Get me your backpack!" tell the villain to the woman who kissed Rival. The woman silently did not carry out the orders of the criminal, which made the criminal again threaten to shoot into the air.
Well, sir criminals to keep shooting is not clear, later the bullet runs out.
Rival returns to notice the criminals besieging them, only four people, one person in the car. For example, this criminal does not use a gun, so quickly Rival has beaten the battered men - men in front of him.
He's already taking a fight. "I'll take off the backpack." Rival said, He approached the woman and removed the backpack from the woman's shoulder.
"Throw!" said the criminal after the backpack was in his hands.
"Alright," said Rival, He walked slowly towards the criminal who was now only a meter away and.... Dooorrrr...!
