Santri Famiglia's

Sealed by Dark Waters

Kelana sharpens the view to the very dark waters. Only such strange fish have lights on the whiskers that become a source of illumination. The fish swam to and fro.

In the dimness, Kelana caught the movement of very large fish, so large, that it was estimated to be larger than his house. Kelana. He recalled one of the fairy tale books featuring such a big fish.

"Pope."

Fish open wide mouth. Then, a bubble came out. He looked closely at the bubble. Inside, there are two humans.

It was the fish that Kelana thought spewed Aeneas. The pope is gone. His voice creates horror. However, Kelana's focus is only on the bubbles that trap an adult human with a small child.

"They're tied."

Go wander. The hallway was very quiet, far below the surface of the earth he knew. To reach this place alone Kelana takes three hours. If he went to the surface to seek help, it was likely that the two people would be lost to the undercurrent.

Kelana thought hard. The other side of his mind said, "Ah, what am I thinking? They can die of suffocation if I think too late!"

She remembered the bird she had thrown into the aquarium. The stone he tied to the bird's feet. Birds cannot rise to the surface. At that time, Kelana just wanted her burumg friends with her small fish. Who would have thought, the bird died.

"Not all of those creatures can live in water, Lan. Only the gills can. There are also those who can breathe with their skin or lungs. But, the organs of humans and other land creatures are certainly created differently from those who can live in water. Humans and other creatures cannot. Land creatures like us might be able to hold our breath for some time. But, if it takes too long, the oxygen reserves in our lungs will definitely run out as well."

After being explained by the great-grandfather, then Kelana understood. He no longer carelessly put animals into the aquarium. Therefore, Kelana decided steadily.

"I have to help them!"

He distanced himself from the glass, running towards it coming. To remember like passing a pond when you came here. The pool was so deep, as if endless. I thought, "That might be the way out there."

He ran while looking at the two floating humans. In his head, there was only how to save them. There was not the slightest thought about the possibility that they might have already died.

Kelana made sure once again the position of the two humans before plunging into the water. He swam without thinking about the possibility of danger. The lights from the hallway became the source of his illumination. On exiting the building, he accidentally nudged a fish he thought was strange. Kelana jerks. The bagong limestone fish suddenly ballooned, very round, a basketball spread, as big as a wandering head. The difference is, fish balls can shine.

His eyes are inspired. Hence, he snatched one tail, then tied it to the broken window frame. Then, he continued to deliberately touch the strange fish throughout the journey. The dark waters were suddenly bright.

Kelana touched the bubble that locked two humans. Brow shriveling. Fingers slipping. It was elastic like a balloon, unable to erupt when it was pierced. As a result, he pushed the bubble down the path he was on.

"Great!"

His breath is almost gone. Kelana warns herself to hold on for a little while longer. Luckily, her creative brain made it easy for her to find her way back. He released the fish before continuing on.

Looking at the glowing surface close by, Kelana left a bubble. He can't take it anymore. As soon as you inhale as much oxygen, then come back down to push the bubble.

Shortly after the bubble reaches a dry surface, it erupts like a soap bubble. Not much water around them. There was only a slight splash of water, indicating that the bubbles did not trap water. The bubble that provides oxygen so that the two humans inside can still live.

Waking them up. The grown-ups realized first, followed by the boy.

"Thank you for helping us!" The grown man untied the boy.

"My name is Kelana. What uncle?"

"Then, you?" Kelana switched to see the boy sepantaran.

The little boy from the bubble was slicing green eyes. Blonde hair. The boy was similar to the grown man. He was just surly-faced without answering Kelana.

Finally, the grown man replied as a representative. "This is Aeneas, my son."

To understand now why they are both so similar to the eyes to the hair. It was not surprising since they did have blood ties. The difference is, Gafrillo can still smile, while Aeneas remains jutek-faced even though Kelana smiles widely at him and says warm greetings introductions.

"Aeneas, smile! There's no way a kid would do you any harm, right? You can never have a friend if you always give that kind of hostile look to everyone" Gafrillo said.

However, Aeneas melengos. He looked out the glass. So many points of light are like giant fireflies in water.

Gafrillo looked out. The folds on his forehead increased instantly.

"So, how did Uncle Gafrillo and Aeneas get eaten by whales, and then make them spew you out?" That makes Kelana very curious. He did not take issue with Aeneas' unfriendly attitude.

He's got. Human character is different. Some can be familiar in one meeting. Some are shy. Some take some time to get along. That understanding he got from the books of bedtime stories that are often repeated.

The father and son looked at Kelana. Aeneas remained with his completely unsightly cold face, while Kelana still maintained a friendly smile.

"Pope?" Gafrillo.

"Um," Kelana nodded, "I saw the pope spew you out."

Aeneas doesn't remember anything. As he remembered, he was knocked unconscious on a ship. He himself was still wondering why his clothes could get wet and was suddenly in a place surrounded by strange waters.

"I'm not sure how either. I followed after Aeneas was thrown into the sea. The strong current almost made me fail. But, thank God, I managed to reach it in time." Gafrillo holds the top of Aeneas' head.

At that time, Kelana could not imagine what happened to Aeneas. He still does not have much experience, except the experience in the family and friendship environment. They have to wait for Aeneas to soften, and their relationship is familiar enough to know the details of the past.

Her hobbies are psychologists who are getting closer to Aeneas. Kelana is able to create a comfort zone for Aeneas so want to open a little with it. Kelana's loyalty and high comprehension ability make Aeneas trust Kelana more than anything else in the future.

Gafrillo chuckled, then switched the conversation. "Rather than thinking about that, how about you explain where this is?"

"I think the basement. We just kept walking down." Kelana tried to remember the path she passed.

"You're with someone else?"

Thinking for a moment, not sure what to answer. "Himself, not really. You see, just now, I followed my great-grandfather silently." Kelana.

"Well, can you show me where the way out is?" gafrillo Pinta.

"Unfortunately, no. I'm separated from my great-grandfather, and I'm here to get lost."
