SPIRIT CHILD

22. MEMORABILIA

Rima sighed

"Because that direction will lead to the asphalt road, only this forest leads to the asphalt road" he explained

I nodded slowly "Okay then" I understood

Rima made a choice for me

"Do you want to walk now or do you want to rest first ? Because your face is so pale "Say

I answered immediately

"We go straight now because if you buy time later you can see your husband again" I said

But Rima is confident that her husband will return tomorrow "I'm sure he won't come after us because he will take Tina's body to the ritual room to have her blood drawn for a little bit" she explained

Hearing him I goosebumps "I don't want to imagine that" I said

Although Rima's explanation is quite convincing but I want to get to the city soon

"Better we go now. I can't wait to get to my house" I said

Rima smiled

"Okay if so let's walk" he said then allow me to walk in front of him

Finally our journey continued on an empty stomach which made the physical weaker and trembling.

even the footsteps I could not avoid.

Sometimes I complain of fatigue on the way, it feels crumpled bones and a very dry throat especially the head back pain and fever that still resides in my body

I ducked to my knees, I felt that these legs could not fight

"I'm tired, I'm hungry, I'm thirsty, I'm shaking" I said.

Suddenly my tears fell among the dry leaves that fell down

Rima hugged me, she was crying too

"I'm sorry, I can only say sorry" he said

Hearing his words I was sobbing more, it made me upset

"I thought friends were a comfortable place, but apparently this time I was wrong" I said trying to let go of his embrace

Rima felt more guilty he could only say that one sentence, "I'm sorry" he said

"Sori Rima, I am still heartbroken by what happened to me now if Tina should die because of you" I said

Rima cried sobbing, she was increasingly unable to endure her regret

"I know I should have deserved to die" he said

"Indeed it should be you, Rima !!!" yell at

Rima looked at me with tears, she could not speak anymore

That's when my emotions overflowed "You're supposed to die instead of Tina.. Youuuu !!!" yell again

Rima was only able to say "I'm sorry Nissa, I'm sorry. I'm guilty" he said

"I'm sorry, Rima. Free !!!" yell again

"Huhuhuhu's...I'm sorry, Nissa" he said repeatedly

"You made us suffer, I suffered... Tina's dead !" say it again

Just then Rima prostrated herself before me, touching my feet and kissing her.

At that time I brushed it off with still very angry "No need to be like this Rima. All free. Even if you die, you won't bring Tina back to life. Tina is dead !" say

But Rima was still resting on my feet, she was deeply hurt by her regret. He didn't say a word he just kept crying

But I don't care about him, all I have in mind is to get out of this hell

"Now I just want to go home, so now please take the right path" I said

Rima stood up, she smiled even though her cheeks were wet

"I'll take you all the way to town, and I'll report to the police" he said

I nodded "Good. That's a good plan" I said as I began to step back at Rima

Suddenly the sound of footprints stepping on dry leaves made us look back

Unfortunately apparently Rima's husband reappeared, he came with his sword that was still covered in blood

Without further ado, Rima's husband just slashed his long sword at us.

And then I stepped to avoid it but not with Rima, instead she fought her own husband by capturing the tip of the double-edged sword.

I witnessed his courage to the point of abandoning his intention to leave

Because after all I did not leave Rima in a state of danger

Finally Rima and her husband clashed with the sword, they pushed each other to bring the sword eye closer to each other's neck.

Although Rima's hand was wounded with blood but Rima did not care, with all her strength she turned her husband's sword eyes towards her husband.

I actually wanted to help her but I didn't know what to do.

Rima who realized that there was still me near her, she shouted at me

"Run !!! Run !!! Quick run !!!" he still held the sword

Hearing him I hesitated about running or having to help him but if I helped him I had to do what I did.

I'm confused, I don't know what to do.

Finally I just stood there watching them trying to kill each other

Rima shouted again

"Run fast, Nissa. Hurry up !!!" yell again

Hearing him I was more confused, my emotions were getting worse and I cried and talked to him

"Rima, you have to come. You have to live !" say

But Rima just kept saying

"Run !!! Hurry up !!!" yell again

At the same time Rima managed to tear down her husband's body after he kicked *******husband.

In still holding each other holding swords from their respective sides.

They fell and Rima's position was on the body of her husband, they were eyeing each other's neck to scratch each other

Rima continued to scream

"Run, Nissa !!! Run !!!" yells

At the same time, Rima managed to push the sword to her husband's neck, and her husband managed to push the sword to Rima's neck.

They were both slashed by their own weapons.

I saw her crying hysterically

"Five !" that real call to me was for nothing

The sound of my crying broke with the wind, regretting my words that seemed like they would never forgive Rima when now she really died for me

"Huhuhuhuhu. Rhymes !" call me again

Rima could still speak but there was no more sound, her voice was squeezed

"Sori. I love you, Tina. We are friends" he said then the look on his face weakened

Hearing this, I was increasingly unable to speak anymore. I'm totally ruined

Some time finally Rima and her husband really did not breathe anymore. They died together, dying in wide eyes

Before I go to continue the journey, I pray for them first in a sick cry to the chest.

"Rima, sorry and thank you" I said then wiped my tears that continued to glow

Finally with a staggering and hopeful step, I continued on the journey now alone.

My steps are very slow

I'm so tired

But I kept walking slowly hoping that the asphalt road I had found.

But in the middle of the journey I collapsed and could not open my eyes.

A while sleeping on the ground finally the orange sky woke me up.

My body was getting tired, it felt impossible to survive but my hope was greater than my fatigue which finally invited me back to fight

I'm preparing my mentality.

Start walking slowly enjoying the darkening day.

I hope my energy will not run out until I finally get help from no one

Under the black sky my footsteps did not stop treading though limped but I still have some hope of returning home.

Fortunately there was a moon among the stars that was enough to shine my way.

But the longer I felt that my life would run out a little more just a prayer as a temple that accompanied me throughout my journey

The moon and the stars were gone, they were driven away by the darkness of the foggy night.

The night is getting cold and I'm desperate.

I was exhausted, I didn't know where else to stop going.

"Yes, Lord. If I must die now, take my life in my heart" I murmured

And without realizing it, my tears came back.

Ngeeeeenggg...!

Tin.tin..tin...tin !! Sgeeeng

Suddenly, the sound of a car passed by

Hearing him my smile broke out with my hope that came back

Quickly I got up to my feet to pick up the source of the voice. Although my body staggered but I was very happy to run up to him.

I strode hard until I was finally on a dark and lonely asphalt road

I screamed in the middle of the road

"Please !!! Tolllooonggg !!! Please !!" I screamed until I cried happily

Unfortunately, not a single vehicle has passed.

I finally decided to walk forward hoping that there would be a vehicle that would support me

At the same time I faintly heard the sound of a car behind me

Ngeeenggg..ngeeenggg !

Suddenly I shouted at him in the middle of the road stretching out both hands as if blocking him from afar

"Tolllongggg !!! Tolllonggg !!!" yell at

But it's lyrical

Tinnnn..tin...nnn !!!

Brukkkkkhh !!!!

The car hit me

To the extent that I was bouncing and the skarat was unconscious

My eyes were dark, I felt like I was being taken to another dimension. Meeting Tina and Rima who were smiling waved at me. They are among the golden streaks of glitter that reflect beauty.

Until I finally woke up in the hospital room.

There's a woman in a medical uniform standing in front of me, she's the superintendent

"Good morning, Mom" she said

"I'm where's Ma'am ?" much

"In the ER" he answered

"Kok I can get here ?" ask me again

"Mommy was in an accident last night and was brought here by the crash man. Mom's leg was crushed by a car tire and had to be amputated"

Hearing her I cried so much, I imagined losing one leg and it was very painful for me.

But in my little heart I still want to give thanks that I am alive to this day.

Thanks, God
