Search Traces

" Ooo..but this is really similar, isn't it so Grandma?" Grandma asked grandma.

" Yes this child is similar to him." replied the grandmother.

" But kek, Ahmad has a cousin who lives in Kota. Most of his cousins live in the city. Indeed There was one cousin of his that when he was young.still the boy at that time, his face was very similar to Ahmad" said Iwan.

" It's possible that Ahmad and his brother were thought to be the same person so they thought they were both the same person" said the grandfather.

" Alright, don't linger, we'd better get going. But it would be nice to pray first before starting our activities today. May all go well and we are given salvation "give the grandfather.

" Later we will lead to the forest to the West, Johan..Selly. Have you ever been, right?" added the grandfather.

" Yes cake, though,..Come on, let's hope the weather supports us too."

They also leave. In the middle of the journey, they tried to find traces of Ahmad's existence. As they entered the forest to the west, Iwan stopped the group.

" Wait a minute cake, wait..There's something I want to talk about before." Iwan.

" All that time I saw Ahmad in the middle of the night being carried by a single black, large, long-fingered, red-eyed figure. Ahmad kept asking for help, I who was in the tent heard his voice passing not far from our camp site, when I caught up with Ahmad seeing me , the creature looked at me but I had hidden myself so as not to be caught." said Iwan.

" Well..It can be used as a clue for us, but grandfather salut you are good at women." praise grandfather.

" Halah is also most curious but she is afraid." Selly quipped.

" Hehehe.iya sell, I was afraid but curious, understandably laah" said Iwan interspersed with a shy laugh.

" Haha.it's okay it's good, then do you guys have any other leads ? Could it help more than this?." asked the grandfather.

" Oiya I had a cake, that time Johan and I were lost, and we found Ahmad's scarf" Selly said, showing him the scarf he was carrying in the bag.

" Oooo yayaya.kakek knows, Come on We should speed up our steps, before the day gets more and more noon."

Then they continued their journey. The forest route they passed was really mysterious and difficult to predict so they all had to be careful in stepping. But it seems not a favorable day for Johan. Johan despite having experience exploring the forest with his father, still misfortunes can come anytime, and anywhere. Johan was pecked at the ground snake on his leg. An earth snake that has deadly venom, the snake is camouflaged which makes it invisible behind long weeds.

"Aaaaah.sick ..sakit.please..There's a snake biting me." Johan screamed in pain.

All in the group were surprised, and soon approached Johan, and gave him the first game.

" Jo.jo.wait jo.you don't panic, don't move too much" said Cindy to calm Johan.

" Cindy.please cin.." whining Johan.

" We'd better get Johan to a more open place, it's too dangerous here" the grandfather asked.

Iwan and Grandpa work together to pick Johan up, then Cindy gives first aid.

" Don't move, jo, I I'm going to prick your feet" Cindy exclaimed.

" When this is done, let's move on." Said Johan.

" Are you crazy, I won't let you Jo, not until your wounds are healed." Cindy said.

" But Cin, we have to find Ahmad, don't waste time here" Johan said.

" Safety is more important than anything, you should go back, let us seek Ahmad" said Selly.

" But sell, I also want to find Ahmad" Johan said.

" You will be a burden if you force yourself to follow Jo" Iwan said.

" Wan.me."

" what your friends say is true Jo, right now it's best for you to heal yourself first, your safety is more important, let alone can the earth snake be deadly. Surely you don't want to die." exclaimed the grandfather.

" I could die because I could snake! well how is this please.please.save me." Johan whined like he almost shed tears.

" Hadeeh's..Johan..Johan..just reminded me.." said Selly astonished.

" Cindy Because you know about medication and first aid, you accompanied Johan to return to the cottage."

" Good cake, I'll take Johan back to the cottage." Cindy said.

" Grandma will lead the way, you rest immediately, pity Johan, lest the habit spread." Said grandpa.

Johan , Cindy, and grandma are back at the cottage. They lead Johan to walk, fortunately they are not too far from the cottage. Meanwhile, grandfather, Selly, and Iwan continue on their journey.

" Let's continue 'before it gets noon." ask the grandfather.

As they continued their journey, they saw like someone was looking for something.

" Who's the cake, should we approach that guy" Selly said.

" Grandfather doesn't know who that person is, and it seems like just this time grandpa saw him" said grandfather, saying,

" Right you said Sell, we should ask the guy, the moves are suspicious"." added grandfather.

" What are you doing here?" ask Selly.

" No ..not doing anything, I'm just hunting here." Answer the man.

The person they met was a hunter.

" Hey sir, is not hunting not allowed especially in the forest that is still beautiful like here" said Iwan.

" What does it have to do with you, who you are anyway, just plain forbid me."

Then the grandfather answered.

" We are citizens here, we protect this forest, this forest is our treasure, and hunting is not allowed here. Isn't that pretty obvious. " Relax grandpa.

But the hunters kept avoiding it,

" Whether this forest belongs to this old man, or this forest belongs to your ancestors, it's up to me, this forest is the god who created it" said the hunter.

" This father never went to school, or ditched when school used to, lest the father get a diploma by shooting, hahaha." said Selly laughing at the hunter.

" Keep your mouth, boy, don't be careless, of course I used to go to school" said the hunter who began to get upset.

" If you ever go to school first, surely you know that animals can be endangered if hunted and only used by humans." said Selly.

The fierce debate continued, grandfather, Iwan, and Selly who kept trying to remind the hunter. While the hunter is stubborn with his education.

" But if it's only taken a little, doesn't it matter, you guys are too much ." Said the stubborn hunter.

" Yes it will not run out immediately, if every day, while the hunter is not just the father, try to think carefully about the fate of the animals here. Pity the animals you hunt just because of which, you don't care about nature." explained the grandfather.

" Bagini, let me hunt later you guys will give me a reward, but don't report my actions, how ? are you guys interested?" ask the hunter.

Turns out the hunters instead offer cooperation with grandfather, Iwan, and Selly. But they refused firmly. CONNECT ...
