The light points slowly drifted away. The round window showed the scene to Sai who was sitting tied up next to Sanubari.
The escape opportunity is increasingly impossible for them, at least until Sanubari is conscious. Sai looked worriedly at the lying Sanubari. The smell of water is still clear. Blood scars are also seen in the dimness of the yellowish bulb. Sanubari's thick hair looks sticky as the blood dries.
Sai has tried calling her over and over again. However, Sanubari did not reply at all. Sai hopes Sanubari will be fine even though his current circumstances clearly show that he is not okay.
Then three men came. Someone approached Sanubari. Another put two loaves of bread and two bottles of mineral water on Sai.
"Eat! Give her one if she wakes up later!" The man pointed at Sanubari whose wound was being cleaned.
The ship's doctor then took out medical sewing equipment. There was an open wound that still shed blood after the coagulating blood was removed. However, when he started to stick the needle, something unusual astonished him. He repeatedly tried to stab, but failed. When he added energy, the needle broke.
"What the fuck?"
"Why?" ask a man who is with him.
"I can't sew the wound."
"You forgot how to ...."
"No, but the skin is too hard."
Lance has never treated a patient like Sanubari. That's a troublesome patient. He could get wide gaping wounds on the head like that, but his skin was impenetrable to sharp objects.
"A strange body" he thought. Secretly, he tried to stick the needle in his own hand. The needle went through his skin. Lance clearly knew that it wasn't his needles that were problematic.
"Maybe your needle is blunt because it's never worn. You should've done it before you got here, Lance!"
"My fingers are not dull. You guys wanna try?" Lance stared intently at his two comrades.
They immediately shook their heads and answered compactly, "No."
"He's still alive. But, if the wound continues to shed blood like this, somehow tomorrow.."
Lance weighted the bandage. The cloth was immediately red. There's nothing they can do. Afterwards, they left as soon as Lance cleaned up the equipment..
Sai was happy to hear Sanubari was alive. Despite its rapid regenerative abilities, tissue sensitivity is now a Sanubari problem. It is also what makes the regeneration ability of Sanubari still unstable.
Fortunately, Sai brought Sanubari's medicine. He quickly approached Sanubari with a bottle of mineral water. Although his hands and feet were handcuffed, Sai was still able to move.
He could have cut the handcuffs with razor blades stored in the shoes if he wanted to. However, Sai did not do it. He had to wait for the right time for it.
Sai took one capsule. He opened the capsule and Sanubari's mouth, then poured out the contents. Worried about making Sanubari choke, the capsule skin dissolved in a bottle cap with a little water. As soon as it dissolved, he poured the bottle over Sanubari's mouth.
Sai once read the label glued to the bottle. So, he knew that the capsule skin was made of a material that easily decays when exposed to water. The health protocol that Kelana delivered had memorized all of Sanubari's friends except new people. The counsellor routinely sends them messages, reminding them of the Sanubari drug.
Sanubari's face looked pale. Sai hopes Sanubari's recovery can be faster before he runs out of blood.
Sai confirms Sanubari's sleeping position. Next, he himself looked for a comfortable position to lie down. There were no bedding or blankets there. They sleep on the floor.
The next day, Sai woke up to the glare of sunlight that barged in. Right at that moment, a rumbling stomach voice sounded. However, Sai realized it was not from him. Upon turning his head, he found Sanubari putting the last piece of bread into his mouth.
"Sak Sai, sorry, I finished the bread. I'm hungry already."
This morning, Sanubari woke up just because his stomach was wrapped around. When he saw the two bottles of mineral water, he immediately downed the remaining half bottle, then snatched the package of bread next to him.
The cuffed condition is not a problem. His stomach matters more. He almost suffocated to death from starvation.
One pack is not enough. His stomach is still sticky. So, one bottle of mineral water was left he spent in one lift.
Sai noticed Sanubari's scar. No more blood flowing.
"Your wounds, does it still hurt?" tanya Sai made sure.
"Your head."
Hearing that, Sanubari touched his head. He found something circular.
"What's this?"
Sanubari. He noticed the white gauze stained red. While his right hand is broken. The tips of his fingers touch the scalp. No scars at all. Kissed that gauze.
"Amis," he said, "This is my hair, is it sticky? How many days have I not been shampooing?"
"You don't remember why you got hurt? Last night, a lot of blood came out of your head." Sai cringing.
Sanubari. "I just remember last night I found out where Kyai Samad was, and then my head was hit by a very heavy object. Wake up here with your hands and feet cuffed. Uh, but last night, make your own way. Why is Sai with me now?"
"We've been exposed since we entered the area last night. They brought me here after you disappeared from my monitoring radar."
"So, the police arrested us for the stalking?"
"No, but it was Kyai Samad who did it. I saw it," said Sai.
As Sanubari was about to say something, the door slammed open. Sai and Sanubari stared at the door. Someone put down bread and water while continuing to watch over them, worried that the two captives would attack.
"Breakfast for you!"
After saying that, he stepped back. Sanubari glanced for a moment at the torn bread lying down, then said, "Can you please add two servings of jumbo side dish rice? Bread is not filling."
"You think this is a food stall?" snapped at the man, then closed and locked the door.
Sai picked up the bread and drink in the middle of the room, then crawled back to his original position. He handed over all the bread to Sanubari.
"Eat all when you're still hungry!"
"It can't be like that! Sai must eat too! I'll wait for them to bring rice with fried mojair or grilled chicken."
Sanubari's thoughts no doubt made Sai insistent, "Does Sanu really think of this as a food stall?"
Sanubari looks very relaxed. He even seemed indifferent to the handcuffs that limited his movements.
"After being full, let's go home! I don't want to play with them for too long."
"Middle of the night, we run off with one of their sekochi" Sai said.
In the afternoon, the door opened again. The crew only threw two packs of bread.
"Where's our rice? Why bread again?" sanubari Tagih. Since then, he had been looking forward to it, but the rice with the side dish had not come.
"That's enough for you!"
"As kidnappers, you should have given us delicious food. Satay, grilled chicken, rendang ...."
"What good are we to comply with the prisoner's request? As if Ask for this/that, you think we're your servants what?"
"The target kidnapper is stingy! Supposedly, you were following Brother Kidnapper Good Heart! He's the best kidnapper of all time!" shout Sanubari.
"Since when was the kidnapper called good?" The crew laughed.
"Alright, Brother! His brain may be a bit short of a blow last night. Let's just go!"
The door closed again. The two made fun of Sanubari in passing.
