SERVING IN 2 COUNTRIES
CHAPTER 5: IN PRISON
1 Week Later
Dayan woke up from his stupor. He fainted for 2 days. When he woke up, he was shocked because he was in a strange place with 2 people he did not recognize.
"(Conscious) Ukh...Ah...In..where am I?" Dayan was weak
"Hey son, are you awake? Hmmss (sound Snot) Good,Hmmss. We are in Japanese prison" replied a man on his right
"Yes son, you've been unconscious for 1 week. The Bimo keeps wiping his snot on your clothes" said a man on his left
"Hey Agus, I told you not to tell him!!! You're looking for dead ha!!!"
"Huh, if you dare to do it"
"YOU....."
"STOP!!! I need peace, my head still hurts. Don't fight anymore, what's the real place?" Dayan's question was rather firm
"Oh, I told you. Hmmss, we're in a Japanese prison. Hmmss, more precisely, we are now in the city of Bogor (West Java)" replied the man on the right
"WHAT!!! BO...BOGOR?!!! No kidding!!!" Dayan said in shock
"What's up, son? Why are you in such shock. Where are you from?" Ask the man on the left
"Ukh.I, I'm from sumatra. Before passing out I had a chance to fight alone against the Japanese soldiers who wanted to take control of my city. Then.I don't remember what else" replied Dayan.
"Oh yeah, we heard from the guards last night. They say you're a dangerous man. Alone is able to defeat more than 500 enemies. You're really great. Oh yes introduce my name Agus (Growing hands)" said the man on the left
"Oh.I Dayan (shake hands)" Dayan said introducing himself.
"Nah nak Dayan, this is my friend, Bimo" said Agus introduced the other pre
"Yes, hmmss...I'm Bimo. A, Hmmss, mechanic in...Hmm...Japan heavy vehicle workshop" Bimo said
"Huh? Japanese heavy vehicle mechanic?" Tanya Dayan was confused
"Yes, we both work in the Japanese war vehicle factory here. I as one of the workers making war vehicles while he worked as a mechanic" replied Agus
"Yes, Hmmss.sorry I was not feeling well during...Hmmss.3 today. Hmmss.I can't talk much. Hmmss..if anyone is asked,Hmmss.ask Agus only" Bimo said.
"Oh good bang. Bang Agus, then why did I come here and why are you in prison. Not that you are weapons craftsmen. They should still need you, right?" Ask Dayan again
"Oh, one dong. So gini. 3 days ago you were thrown into this prison when you were still unconscious. We asked why this kid, they just shut up and left. Oh and about work, we have been imprisoned for 1 year" replied Agus explained
"What's? 1 year? But..why?" Ask Dayan again
"Hm, because they know that we managed to find information about their secrets" replied Agus.
"Hmm...Ha...Ha..Hatche!!(sneezing)...Uk....Agus,Mayan. Can I...sleep for a minute? I'm gonna take a break, brrrrrr....." Bimo shivered
"Ha, hm.it seems that your pain is getting worse. There are no blankets or cloths here. Are you sure you want to sleep on the floor like this?" Ask Agus
"It's okay papa, I just...Hmmss.want to sleep for a while. Ha.ha...OH!!! Ukh...can you?" Bimo asked back
"Um. If you insist, fine. You go to sleep first. We will not bother you" Agus agreed
"Um..accept,Hmmss, love."
Bimo immediately lay down on the cold floor. Without blankets or long cloths, he seemed to shiver coldly. Shortly thereafter, he fell asleep. Dayan and Agus continued the conversation.
"Hm.by the way, good brother. Is bang Agus and bang Bimo that close?" Ask Dayan
"Ah, um.yes. Such is. We have been friends since we were 12 years old. It has now been 18 years since the incident" replied Agus
"18th? so.. You guys are 30 years old?"
"Yes"
"Waw, what a great friendship. Hm..oh yes, my brother said you know a big secret from Japan. What's the big secret?" Ask Dayan again
"Ah, that's yes. The story started 1 year ago"
***flash back On***
(Warning: This time the Author does not speak Japanese. Because the Bimo and Agus are already proficient in Japanese so their dialogue with the Japanese troops becomes easier. Another reason is so that readers do not feel bored because Japanese is difficult to read and understand. So even though the author uses Indonesian, let's just say they are speaking Japanese. So, no need to linger longer, let's continue the story. Next)
Monday, 1 JULY 1942
LOCATION: Japanese war vehicle manufacturing plant, Bogor, West Java
Agus is working like a biasia. He and other workers were building a military truck that they had to finish that day. Some time later, Agus and the other workers were resting. A soldier called Agus.
"(japanese language) HEI AGUS...COME HERE!!!"
"YES!!! Hey man, just go ahead. Someone called me" Agus said
"Well, who knows what's important" they replied
"alright. Thank you." Thank you."
Agus walked towards the soldier.
"What's up, sir?" Ask Agus
"You were called Lieutenant Kawada to his room" replied the soldier
"HOW DO I KNOW!!! IT'S ORDERS!!! QUICKLY EXECUTE!!!"
"ahs...HI'...!!!"
Agus went to Lieutenant Nakagawa's room. Arriving there.

"Ah..sit sit, let's sit first. All right, you're here now. So no need to get stale anymore. Get to the point. Look, you two are the workers I trust the most. How about I give you a gift" Kawada said
"Eh Lieutenant,anu.no need. We're...."
"Hahaha there's no shame. Just tell me what you want. Or..how if I give you a promotion" said Kawada again
"Pro..promotion?" Ask Bimo

"I.i.e..yes" Sahut Bimo.
"We don't need anything else...Lieutenant.heheheheh..." Add again

"WHATAAA!!! AN ARMY? SERGEANT...?!!!" Shouts them simultaneously
"Yes, how is.mau not?" Ask Ltn.Kawada again
"Um...anu..wasn't it, what should we do?" Ask Bimo
"Ah.this may be quite difficult. I want you to build a truck that has missiles on its back
"What's? The truck that has the missiles?" Ask Agus
"We've never made it" Bimo said
"Yes, I know. That's why I need your help. Agus, the genius vehicle designer, and Bimo, the best mechanic in town. If you work together then, it won't be too hard, will it?"
"Ah..hm. We will try" Bimo agreed
"Good, I want you guys to finish it in 1 month. You guys should be able to make 10 of the most excellent and quality missile trucks, how?" Ask Kawada again
"Hm.good. We will finish it as soon as possible" Sahut Agus
"Good, then you can get out"
"HEY'....!!!!"
Agus and Bimo came out of the room. They also had a conversation about the problem of making the missile truck.
"Hey Agus, do you think we can finish that fast?" Ask Bimo
"Of course not. For that we must ask for the help of other workers" replied Agus
"Oh then, I'll ask the other Montir for help. The more people the better" Bimo said
"hahaha right too. Tumben your brain works" Gurau Agus
"Hey what do you mean say that!!!" Bimo Sahut
"hahahaha, I'm just kidding...."
"hahahaha.well, whatever"
