Past For Future's

Introduction to Echoes

Continuing with a car trip, they again traveled for 3 hours to get to the basecamp near the mountain that Adam meant earlier.

After they arrived, they were blown away by the beautiful scenery before them. The towering mountain seemed challenging to conquer. For a moment they enjoy the cool air that bursts into their nasal cavities.

"Welcome to the realm of freedom, Oliv." murmured Oliv with a smile that never faded from his lips.

They walked to the basecamp, there were some people who were there who were believed to also start a trip to the top. Oliv confirmed the position of the bag he was carrying. His feeling was completely cool regardless of the problems he continued to face.

"Heiiiii..," Adam waved his hand at one of the people there. "Look, that's my theme." Adam asked Oliv and Nia.

Adam and Nia ran small, Oliv followed them casually with his gaze fixed on the green expanse on his right side.

"Liv, sneak up here!!" shouted Nia who immediately knocked out Oliv. Oliv immediately approached the three of them.

"Weight huh? put the bag here first." Nia helped Oliv take the bag off his back. "Where? elo dizzy is not the same way mananjak manurun manang??" cananda Nia's.

"Lumayan. But I'm happy, I can finally get to this place." Oliv looked at the amazement around him.

"Eh, acquaintance first dong. It's called an echo." Adam thrusts Echo's hand towards Oliv.

"Olivia" He shook Gema's hand with a smile.

"Echo," she replied without displaying her smile.

"Okay, let's take a break here. If anyone wants to buy, say yes. There's still stalls here, there's rice too." Adam broke the mood.

"Yes, we went there first. I'm laper again. Dam, Ni ayok." take Oliv.

"Lo first with Nia and Kak Gema, Liv. My stomach mules." Adam grumbled as he held his stomach.

"Duh, you're the same echo, Liv. Let me take care of our bags. Change it up." Nia also reasoned. "Udah, no papa there. Sis Gema knows where it is." Nia encouraged Oliv to walk.

"Come," asked Gema without turning his head, his hands put in the pocket of the jacket he was wearing.

Oliv turned to Nia, Nia just nodded as she wagged her hand expelling. Oliv finally grabbed the mini bag he was carrying and followed Echoes from behind. Oliv returned the greetings of several climbers who greeted him. It was actually a little strange, since almost everyone was making greetings and smiling at Oliv and Gema. Unlike the city, do not know then pretend not to see.

His steps slowed down when he reached the terrace of a small stall walled with boards that looked simple but sturdy. He was looking for an empty seat, because there were also some visitors who were stopping by at the stall.

"You want what pesen?" tanya Gema slowly but impressed indifferently.

"Seafood fried rice." replied Oliv jahil.

"OK." replied the brief echo that made Oliv hold back a laugh.

"there really? hihihi." Oliv's inner.

"Where are you from?" ask the man in his 40s who was sitting not far from Oliv.

"I'm from the Capital, sir." replied Oliv politely.

"Oh, do you like to climb or experience first?" ask the man.

"This is my first experience, sir." Oliv answered as necessary.

"Oh, yeah-yes. The important thing is to be careful, follow the instructions. And don't be arrogant with fellow climbers. Never any dirty intentions too, here are many restrictions that you should not know first." advice the man.

Oliv only understands. Maybe that's why the climbers are friendly to him and also to other climbers.

"Who are you talking to?" Echoes patted Oliv's shoulder which made his daydream crumble.

"Eh??" Oliv blinked his eyes. "That was-"

"Now" Gema cut Oliv's speech while handing a plate of rice complete with side dishes to Oliv. "That's why people want to go to Bismillah first." ketus Gema.

"But I said the same--"

"The chips are eaten." again Echoes cut off Oliv's speech.

His originally hungry stomach, became tasteless. From then on he just stirred the rice in front of him without intending to eat it.

"Did I go home. Well, who would you like to be the same? Nanggung also already nyampe here." he murmured in his heart.

"By the way, the waiter here most do not like people who are redundant. So do not blame us if there will be nothing." said Gema in a calm tone without glancing at Oliv.

Oliv quickly scooped up his food without the slightest protest. He greedily ate rice and side dishes that were no longer felt on his tongue. The most important thing is to finish the food quickly and without waste.

Gweeeks

Oliv accidentally burps in front of the Echoes. He closed his mouth, ashamed, obviously embarrassed. Even Gema was a person he had just known.

"The food is already paid, come." invite Echoes after sipping water in the glass.

"Can't you stretch anymore, brother? My stomach is full, it's hard to walk." lamented Oliv but not disturbed by the Echoes who continue their steps.

Oliv only snorted in annoyance, then ran small to chase after the Echoes who had long strides. Many times he stroked his full stomach. Because he did not consider the portion before ordering, as a result the complete portion that should be eaten by adult men also entered forcefully into his stomach.

huff.

Oliv bowed because his stomach was getting uncomfortable, "Sister Echo, please first. My stomach hurts." Complain Oliv again. Echoes were forced to stop his steps and turn back towards Oliv.

"Eh..," Oliv was surprised because his body suddenly floated into the air. He was even more surprised if it turned out that the one carrying him was Echoes. He did not dare to rebel, because his stomach was uncomfortable.

Actually not far enough, but walking also takes about 10 minutes from the stall to the basecamp. Oliv rounded his mouth when he felt a pounding heartbeat Echoes right in front of his ears.

"Did she never pick a girl until sampe deg-degan gini? But she was quite sweet anyway." Oliv's inner self only dared to be impassive.

"Down here. Not good to see people." The echoes lowered Oliv then walked away leaving Oliv alone.

"Yes, I pulled my talk just now. Ngeselin is very. But he looks like a judge, too. Mending diem deh, rather than me being jolted mentally." Oliv grumbled inwardly.

Oliv who has faith as a spoon was immediately dyed feel goosebumps again. He finally walked a few steps towards the basecamp he had stopped by earlier.

"Where is it full?" asked Nia, "Here sit." He patted the mat he had named.

"Satisfaction, Ni. My stomach hurts because of the direct way earlier." he replied while insinuating Gema.

"Yes, rest first. I want to lie down first, too, papa. It's elo's first experience, so we don't want to rush let elo not really ketapean." Oliv just nodded then put his head on Nia's thigh.

Oliv continued to move because the shadow of the man who invited him to talk in the stall was still ringing in his memory.

"I'll follow you wherever you go." A creepy voice whispered in Oliv's ear.
