"If anyone starts, tell me, I'm in the middle between safety and the unexpected. I'm on an adventure"
...~Edy...
Time passed, Edy still survives in his solitude in Surya Kencana Square, Gede Pangrango. The extension of his reaction was always assisted by Mr. Agus. On Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, Edy always gets new friends. Several other groups of climbers came to Surya Kencana. Including Mr. Agus. Last week Mr. Agus did not come, there may not be any guests. Usually every time he came, Mr. Agus tipped Edy something, whether it was a battery, a cigarette, or coffee.
December that Time
One afternoon. In one of the damp in the Gede Pangrango grass, a little far from the Surya Kencana square, Edy searched for wood and documented some plants in Gede Pangrango with his notes. From a distance, on the track leading to Surya Kencana, Edy saw a porter walking by carrying a guest behind him.
'Sir Agus?' edy's mind was second-guessing as his eyes squinted at the face and motion of the porter he saw from that distance. He smiled and was happy, if it was Mr. Agus then it means, the cigarette and coffee came faster.
Edy left his gaze, 'If it was Mr. Agus, he would definitely wait in the tent as usual' Edy thought. He also continued his productive activities in Gede Pangrango by continuing to move up the hill to continue his recording, while looking for a reed to tie the twigs he had collected.
Almost 20 minutes passed when Edy was busy exploring the diversity of Gede pangrango finally remembered that Pak Agus might be waiting for him in the tent.
As Edy stood up, turned around, and rushed towards the tent, Edy saw a porter he had seen heading towards Surya Kencana, now turned around and walked back down. 'The 'Rupa is not Mr. Agus' inner Edy while still stepping back through the high weeds and rushing back to the tent.
When Edy arrived at the tent area, he was shocked to see his tent moving by itself. Spontaneous Edy throws her body behind a nearby boulder. Wood tied Edy fell due to the movement of the sponge.
Hearing the noise from the falling wood, the tent was still not moving anymore. Edy controlled his heartbeat, he held the tramontina in his hand while shifting his head to look for a peek gap towards the tent. A black shadow moved from inside the tent, Edy saw it from behind a rock, someone came out from inside the tent. A man with a black jacket and a scarf on his head.
Edy kept asking questions and preparing for the worst possible situation on her mind. Until finally, a person in front of the tent turned his head and walked toward Edy, precisely in the direction of wood scattered beside a large stone where Edy hid his body.
A man stumbled closer, in the middle of the step he opened the scarf that bound his head.
"Edyy" A tired voice called out Edy's name.
Edy came out from behind the rock. Her eyes widened. Edy explored what was in front of her eyes. Shoe sneakers, jeans, flannel shirts, and a piece of traditional woven fabric coiled around the neck of a man in front of Edy.
"Rara?"edy said in disarray. With a pale face, Rara smiled looking at Edy.
"Sir Agus" said Rara whose eyes narrowed.
Apparently correct Edy's guess that the porter he had seen from above was Mr. Agus. And the guest she brought was Rara. Not coffee, cigarettes, or anything else. Rara is the deposit that Pak Agus brought that afternoon.
"How are you?" said Rara again. "I'm here to..."
"To show your stupidity!?" said Edy cut. He gathered the remaining wood. "I swear if you just want to show it, you don't have to be far here" Edy said again as she passed into the tent.
Edy passed Rara so. The two now turn their backs on each other, Rara has not spoken since Edy cut her explanation.
Brugg's.. Edy dropped a wooden twig in his arms in front of the tent. He continued to talk about continuing his emotional breakdown. He curses Rara repeatedly about Rara's foolishness, who decides to climb the mountain without preparation, knowledge, and love for the environment. Rara's absurdity could not be accepted.
"I really don't understand what exactly..."
Spontaneous Edy stopped and ran towards Rara. Only when he realized when he turned his head, Rara fell to the ground unconscious.

"Thank God Edy is fine" Pejuh said in between his time with Pissing at Posko. "Is edy really alone in Gunung Gede Pangrango?" ask Pejuh.
"Yes" replied Piss who was busy playing with his prussik rope..
"Eh, who is Yasmine, who is it?? How does he know Edy in Gunung Gede pangrango?" Pejuh sat closer next to Keeking.
"Yasmine is a.travel blogger. Hits at sosmed pokonya. Yasmine.." piss quietly for a moment. "Yasmine Anindya" he continued.
"Oh yes. At first glance, I have ever heard of his name. How's story?" Pejuh calls attention Pissing to tell stories. Prusik rope in hand Piss he pull and store it on the table.
"Ceritain, the" Pinta Pejuh.
"Yasmine.'s.." Peeing up, he timang-timang his own hands while moving towards the long sofa next to the tool cabinet. "Here here" he said as he patted the cushion of the sofa.
Throw her body next to Piss. He shook his body and his head against the face of his lover.
"Where was the last day I told you about Edy and Rara?" tanya pee.
"Until Rara took her to Edy's house" replied Pejuh.
"Rara knows from the blog. Yes that was, from Yasmine's blog. There Yasmine posted a note of her solo traveling from Jogja, Bandung Cianjur.
In the note, Yasmine uploaded photos, among them were photos of herself in Gede Pangrango. There's Edy in the photo" Piss explained.
"Oh, Edy..Edy.." Fighters shaking their heads.
"Yasmine also wrote something about Edy, I forgot the details of her words like how. Anyway the essence of his writing, Si Yasmine respects the young man he met, Si Edy. Yasmine in between Mr. Agus.
"Allah misses me with Mr. Agus" Pejuh responded. "Keep up and what's next?" the Pinta Pejuh again.
"Rara samperin the Yasmine. That day also he samperin Yasmine who was stopping at his brother's house in Padalarang, which" said pee spirit. "For him he got word about Edy, he was the only one who samperin me, the afternoon went straight to him"
"In fact, only in Padalarang doank. Just jump" said Pejuh relaxed.
"Yes that. He's going to padalarang. I contact mapala ministers who live there to pick up, guard and nemenin he find the address of his brother Yasmine's house" explained Pissing.
"Meet?" ask Pejuh.
"Yes, meet me right away"
"Thankful, huh. Still there, isn't Ranara? Nitip this donk that, coffee aroma" said Pejuh.
"Rome...." Pissing seems confused. "Don't be angry, baby" continued Peeing with a strange face.
Hearing and seeing the weirdness of Pissing, Pejuh changed his seat. He removed his head from his own hands.
"What?" pejuh.
"Rara to Mount Gede Pangrango followed Edy" said Piss.
"Hahaha" Pejuh laughed. He thinks I'm kidding.
"I'm serious" said Pee again.
As quickly as lightning Pejuh rose from his seat. He looked at the face of piss. From the gaze of Pissing, Pejuh know that Pissing is not joking.
"You're crazy, Cing. For what sake. I swear, you're Crazy!" The passenger walks and rests his body against the door. The mood turned drastically.
instantly he felt the need to find fresh air after hearing the news from Pissing.
"I've entrusted him to Mr. Agus" Pissing pacified. "I'm Mr. Agus's phone"
"What did you say to Agus? You brought my name and edy, didn't you?" Angry fellow.
Pejuh revealed to Piss that just because a person has done good, does not mean that a person can casually terrorize values and ethics to those who are indebted.
"Pity Rara, Juh" Pee approached Pejuh.
"Pity why? Of love? Hah, pity, she'll die on track ! Ridiculous !" said Pejuh while breaking away from the Piss that hugged him.
"You Mapala. You know the rules of the game, Cing! You know the procedure and everything else"
"There's Mr. Agus, Juh. Mr. Agus anter Rara to Surya Kencana, the rest of Edy who takes care of."
"That's Mr. Agus, that's Edy. What about Rara? Is he strong? Does he know the technique? Does he know nature? Know mountain? Know standard? No?!" pejuh's tone was getting higher, Pissing was silent. "Theories, journals and balance sheets controlled by Rara did not kepake there" said Pejuh again.
"I just wanted to help Rara and Edy. No other meaning" Piss softens mists.
"Okay if , miraculous, call it Rara can and strong until Surya Kencana. They're back here, so what do I tell Edy?" The peejuh the more emotional. "I know Edy, King ! I've been hit on the cheek. Just because I left my climbing partner behind during last year's Ciremai Mountain Expedition. Edy is way more mapala than us! I respect him. What's he say later"
"Oh so all this emotion of yours is just because you're scared of Edy? Because of that ego?" Pissing back attacking.
"Geez, Pee! Arghh!" Fighters beat the door with emotion. "Here, I want to get out the wind. lest anyone know this before we talk again later ! Shame" he said again.
Get angry and leave.
Peeing, behind his guilt, really has predicted all this. Pissing to know what he has decided. He is ready to accept all the risks.
it all started that night at The Corner, when Rara told Keing how early the problem was. The more days, the more Keeking know and fluent exactly how the fall wake up Rara looking for Edy. Especially after Pissing understood that what happened between Rara and Edy was more than just a Bu Diah class problem, they were both more complicated than that.
