The Eye of Aska Time

The Journey to Sumbing I

After discussing for a long time, and with a lot of consideration, finally Aji and I chose Mount Sumbing as our first mountain climbing destination. There are 2 lanes to get to Sumbing, kalianggrik and bowongso lines. If from google, it might be better if through bowongso, in addition to more gentle roads, there is a vast savanna scenery. Although I actually refused it because it is better to travel through many trees so as not to heat. Aji actually meledekku “Not a beauty product ambassador just afraid of item.” Because I did not accept the end I made a trip via bowongso.

Today I walked with Usy while looking for equipment to climb the mountain with Aji. I'm just looking for sleeping bags and supplies. Aji had already prepared tools such as tents, paraffins, and ropes. Usy join foraging for reasons “I have to guarantee your nutrition later in the mountain, do not let you eat grass.”

“Honey, really want to peak this weekend?” Ask Usy when I'm screwing.

“Iya, so dong. You also know that I already have plans to climb the mountain from the same time he,” I replied.

“Hmm, two doang?”

“No, same as other climbers, will later that go up the mountain there is not just the two of us.”

“Hmmm, Aska!!” he said while pulling the t-shirt I was wearing strongly.

“Eh don't pull dong, later if I fall how!”

“Let you 1 same tent Aji?” ask him while putting on a pouting face. I nodded, and his hand pulled my shirt and squeezed it “You'll do anything in the tent?!”

“Etetett!” I covered to the left side of the road and stopped because the pull of Usy made me shake a little while motorized “Ya sleep dong rest,” I replied while looking at Usy. His eyes were glazed over, his face pouting, his face flushed red making the blush on which he was wearing even more red. His grip started to hit my stomach, Usy's nails were long enough to hurt a little when he squeezed.

I walked a little ahead, there was a fruit juice vendor who provided a seat. I took Usy down for a drink. We sat down and kept quiet until the mango juice we ordered arrived. His face was still pouting while drinking his juice.

“Sweet isn't the juice? “ my question tried to open a chat.

Usy just nodded by keeping his pouting face. I brought the chair closer to him “Hmm yes, very sweet especially deket same sweet chick your cake.”

Usy stared at me, his face getting red as red as the traffic light “Basi hahaha!” he answered while laughing.

“Hmmkan, don't be angry just dong to Mount doang.”

“Towards you guys why try it in the tent?” Ask Usy and throw his face away.

“Ya sleep, cook want to play futsal in tent?”

“Tau ah you never understand me.”

“Yaudah you I anter home yes, I shop for necessities first,” I said while finishing the juice I drank.

“Not me coming,” he said as he finished the juice he drank. Usy moves quickly pay for the juice we drink and rushes up to the motor “Let's walk!” snapped it.

Along the way Usy was more silent. Several times he was fussy asking me not to go up the mountain. He told some spooky stories that he said many people were missing, many who went down the mountain left their names alone, many were kidnapped by demons, and various myths. The strangest thing is that he said that for example, suddenly there was a stone walk that fell from the top of the mountain and kept nimpa my head, keep me fainted and not wake up or the mountain erupted and the lava made a meteor that endangers the citizens around “Mounts are raging do not want to be climbed, Ka!” he said while still putting on his pouting face.

Arriving at the adventure shop he did not want to be invited down and asked me to accompany. I rubbed his head until his hair was a mess, his face grew sullen and threw away. I just found out that Usy turns out there is this childish nature. I can't ask him to come down so he stays in the car. I finally got into the store by myself.

I came out holding a sleeping bag while Usy in front was still pouting. I smiled at him, as if he really didn't want me to go up the mountain.

“Asik, already dapet Sleeping Bag thanks ya, dah so a carpenter,” my candlestick when I see Usy who is still pouting.

He looked at the Sleeping Bag I was carrying. Then ask me to open it, then use it “Yes cook me make in front of his store?” just pissed.

Usy looked at me with a confused face, he got off the bike and looked at me with a confused look. Then suddenly he asked “Lah Aji where to sleep?”

“She has her own dong, cook one room with me!!” reply upset.

Usy stunned embarrassed, he nodded and quibbled “Pas kok size for you, yaudah come home, embarrassed Ka make time in front of the store.”

I cleaned it up while grumbling in annoyance. Usy chuckles at me, we're leaving because I can't possibly let the people there remember my face as a crazy person who makes sleeping bags in front of the store.

“So you guys have the room separated in 1 tent?” Ask Usy on the way.

“Iya dong, dear, my beautiful future wife, 1 sleeping bag is for 1 person doang, there is no way I can sleep together in one bag!” reply upset.

“Ih, can not be angry, I'm afraid you will come home to be gay, I'm not so you marry later,” he replied with a small laugh.

“You can ask first,” I replied a little annoyed.

“So that sensitive guy is!” answer Usy the most right.

I didn't want to argue for long, and then I continued shopping for food. I don't think there's much to bring when I go up the mountain. Maybe the food that can be brought is just bread and noodles. Unfortunately, Usy didn't allow that. She's so fussy tell me to bring broccoli, mustard, and chickpeas. Then take some of the vegetables along with the spice complement.

“What a pity bring kayak gini cooking ingredients, I will go up the mountain instead of joining the master chef,” I said while shaking my head.

“Even can cook, you can cook all day there just eat noodles doang?”

“Yes but where can I cook on the Mountain?”

“There is paraffinkan?”

I just patted the eel and let him put what he wanted. Take care of my groceries. I saw there were some vegetables and fruit, after that there was some milk, and vitamins. Then he brought me candles, wet wipes and hand sanitizer. The reason it brought me hand sanitizer is because in the Mountain is not necessarily sterile, it could be there are many viruses and I have to smear my body with 70% alcohol%.

Judah I don't want to make him worry and argue again along the way. So I let him put anything in my shopping bag. Even if later he saw a broom and entered it with the reason “Keeping cleanliness” yaudah is not a problem in my opinion.

We're home at about 7 p.m. The road to the house has begun to be quiet, especially along the road Ahmad Yani. He told me to be careful and forbid me to wear a green and black shirt.

I'm just answering that it's just a myth and a belief there. But Usy directly hit my helmet while saying “If dilogika why not make black and green shirt because if it is lost so it is not difficult to find handsome mas!”

“Yes I will not be lost!” I replied annoyed, because my shirt is all black, there is only 1 pink shirt from the class meeting when there is a campus event, and 2 red shirts. The one Liverpool shirt that one bull political party shirt. Hmm somehow that shirt could be on my desk. Maybe I just forgot it.

“Aska!!” his yell. I finally gave up.

I drove Usy to the front of the house. As usual she opened the door of the house while smiling just punctuated by a slightly worried thought “Be careful ya!”

I nodded and rushed home. I went on a trip at 10 p.m. It just so happened that his trip was in front of the complex. And around 9 pm Aji arrived at the house, I also finished packing. We both say goodbye to father and mother and then walk to the travel agency.

The journey takes about 6 hours. Night travel is faster because the traffic is not so crowded. There was not much chatter on the way, I was tired after shopping and it seemed that Aji also looked tired.

At about 4 a.m., we arrived at Camp Bowongso. Me and Aji looked at each other. The journey starts tomorrow.
