Sanjana New Life

Chapter 21 Getting Lost

The figure drew closer and someone shouted.

" where are your children" shouted Zaki

" sir Zaki, sir Zain "just about Zain and Zaki fell in shock

" thank God you're safe" Zain said

" in the afternoon we should quickly return to camp sir" suggested Arjana but the response of duo Z is surprising

"Sorry, we hurriedly searched for you and forgot to leave a trace"

" So we're lost?" All just bowed lethargic not knowing what to do.

" Maybe we have to find a safe place to take shelter while waiting for help to come" Sanja said

They also began to look for a roomy place and not too lush, then clean it from pebbles and leaves.

Especially the leaves because usually the snake likes to hide there, scraping using a twig.

" I think we should find a twig to make a campfire, oh yeah Ra you brought salt, right?" Sanja began to command, because she often travel nature with her father even though it is now somewhat different.

" yes, take it" handed me a plastic bag of salt

" want to make salted fish, to bring so much salt" Zaki chuckled

" say mother let there be no snakes sir, Ar also bring a lot"

Sanja starts sprinkling salt around the place they hope to dispel the snake, Arjana has finished preparing a campfire. It was dark when their preparations were finished.

" maybe we'll be here for a while, tomorrow we'll send a signal" they're starting to put clothes together because the air's getting colder

" we have to change guard" suggested Ar

" well it starts with me, Zain, you and the last two girls"

" good" said Ar

Zaki's day has begun the night to be the first to take a guard turn, making sure the area is safe from wild animals as well as keeping the campfire burning to slightly ward off the cold.

Sanja and Ara got a turn in the morning so it was not too sleepy, Sanja seemed to focus on writing in a notebook with illumination.

He remembered his father's teaching about nature.

The morning before, Sanja marked the rising of the sun as a reference direction.

They eat the supplies they bring, and as much as possible save supplies.

" father can know we are lost" asked Arjana on the sidelines of his meal

" So yesterday when you weren't at the camp we were going to pick you up" Zain said

" yes, sir, sorry yesterday we went to the public toilet" Ara said

" truss?" Ar curious

" we accidentally heard there was a group of girls who were not from our school"

" the point is they changed the signboard because they don't like Ara and Sanja as much as possible" Zain wasn't too sure

" what her son wavy hair there is a hair that is partially white like Anna in the projen film, the height is approximately 159. Trus also sounds chirping?" Cerocos Ara's

" well more or less the same as you described" said Zaki

" wah fix this is Shania" exclaimed Ara

" didn't you warn them?" Arjana

" Do you believe they will report?, because judging from their actions to harm us. It seems less likely they want to help us" said Arjana

" we are threatening to sue them" Zaki said

" is there no evidence?" This time Sanja asked

" the evidence is on this phone, we accidentally recorded their conversation and with a confession will be solid evidence"

" Sanja what should we do?, because only you look the most experienced" asked Arjana

" we have two options. The first is waiting for the rescue team to receive a signal from us, or the second option is looking for its own way out. I think the safest option is the first, because we don't have any leads" Sanja explained

" Ra you will be a winter climbing try to see from above there is a river deket here what is not" said Sanja

" A little while" Ara began to climb the tree up to the tallest branch.

" there is a river near here" cried Ara from above the tree

"Is the camp visible from there?" Ask Sanja

" I didn't see it"

" are we going very far" Arjana murmured

" it doesn't seem to be, either, because the campsite is in the valley. So it is likely that we are walking towards the mountain, because the tree is quite high and lush so it is not too visible" said Zaki while showing a map.

" what the hell is the convoluted pack of nonsense not really connected" protested Ara

" where did you bring the map? " looked twinkle in Sanja's face

" take in one of the posts" said Zaki gratuitously

" Weird, why they make a map with a scope of the area outside the tourist attractions" surprised Arjana

" If we follow the river flow then we can meet the village here and walk to the west then we can reach the campsite" pointed Sanjana

' I don't know why my hunch isn't good well, am I too tired' Arjana thought

"We don't have a compass, how do we know where is west and where is east" Ara said

" we use the compass of nature, the sun rises from that direction it means east and there west. But it's a little difficult so we can use moss as a reference, moss always grows back to the direction of sunrise. So the east direction is the direction where the moss does not grow and the west is the reverse direction"

" maybe you can lead the way" suggested Arjana

" why don't we just send a signal?" ask Ara

" because if we wait, not necessarily our signal can be found and wait for something that is not sure it feels less good."

(maybe if there really is waiting to send a smoke signal, but do not know also because of not experience. it seems that before doing activities we must pay attention to the safety procedures of the experienced so as not to happen things that are not desirable.

The author chooses the second option so there is a bit of adventure)

" as far as I know to survive we also have to decet with water sources, also usually if we follow the flow of the river we will meet the village. Because usually they build near water sources such as rivers, rivers, another reason the water always flows to a lower place as Mr. Zaki said that the campsite is in the valley so by following the flow of the river we can arrive"

" from what I see on the map it is also not too far from the river" continued Sanja

" hopefully we can squeeze through to "hope Ara

" maybe we should start the journey quickly"

they walked led by Sanja not how long they reached the river.

the river flow is quite heavy but still quite safe, they continue the journey after resting and eating.
