The Gem of the Heart of the Former Thug

the feeling becomes real

They're moving immediately. The princess put on a raincoat for her mother. She and her sister also wear matching raincoats. With them out of the house. It turned out that the water was so fast flowing, that it had flooded their home page. Without wasting any more time, they immediately went from the house towards the village hall.

Arriving at the multipurpose building, Budi immediately prepared a place. Precisely in the corner that is in the form of the letter L. Luckily, there was a wooden long chair, which could be used for sitting. Budi tried to contact the village head, to ask permission to use the terrace of the multipurpose building. Getting news from Budi, the village chief was shocked. He gave me that permission. Even he also gave permission, if you want to use the village hall pendopo.

But, as the Princess said, Mrs Ratih did not want to look flashy. So he chose to be on this terrace alone, rather than in the village hall pendopo. Just follow what his mother wants. The princess invited her brother to roll out the mat she had prepared. Use the long chair as a wall. He covered the chair with a tarp to protect his mother from the night wind.

“Put, Budi mas go there first, yes? monitor conditions. If it's a signal, and you need a rock, hit that kentongan!” said Budi. He pointed at the clapper hanging in the corner of the meeting hall.

“Oh, yes” replied Princess.

“Kalo just call, sound it once in a while, with a time lag of three seconds. Hit it five times. Give distance of three minutes, if Budi mas not nyamper, hit again rich before!”

“Emergency touts?”

“Emergency touts in the form of security disturbances, richly sampled Adi for example, sound twice-twice. Give it a one second break. Keep ringing!”

“Kalo something more than that?”

“You have the same life, keep ringing, rapid!” reply Budi.

They then try to harmonize their understanding by trying to hit the fart directly. After they both understand, Budipun pampit to check the situation.

He had no idea, what Adel said, was coming true. Just a few minutes out of the house, now Budi can not return to his home. The sloping road contours, and the neighborhood where he lived in the center of the basin, made this neighborhood quickly submerged. Be the first to be affected by floods. Some young men, invited Budi to help with the evacuation. Budi agreed, but he gave permission to go back to the village hall first, to save his cell phone.

“Where is the condition, mas?” ask the Princess, when she sees Budi back.

“Severe. Good thing, that was hunting. I can't make Jalan” replied Budi.

“Innallahi. Keep other residents, how ngger?” ask Ratih ma'am.

“This, Budi want to join the evacuation management” replied Budi, while leaving his phone to the Princess.

“Del, your gut feeling is real. Here we are again in the multipurpose building, village hall. But you don't have to worry, the same mother Princess is fine aja” Budi gave a voice message to Adel before leaving.

Together with other residents, Budi returned to his home environment. Helping other people who want to evacuate.

Unexpected things happen during the evacuation. People who do not like the Budi family, those who are in a gang with their budenya, refuse when they will be evacuated out of the neighborhood.

They choose to evacuate to the homes of residents who are one mind with them. incidentally, the RT sir his house has two floors.

Arguing with them, is time consuming. Finally, residents who are pro with their families, just let go of those who want to evacuate at the house of RT sir. Because there are still some people who need to be evacuated.

When finished with them, ill-fated, the water was already too high. In addition, the flowing water is also very swift. Moreover, electricity began to be turned off by PLN, making the atmosphere become pitch black.

After trying several times, and failing, with a heavy heart, they went to the highway. They leave people who cannot evacuate. While hoping, they have a way to hold on until help comes along.

*TOK... TOK... TOK... TOK TOK*

The sound of a fart is struck with a two-two rhythm. Be understanding, the same rhythm and continuous, indicating that the Princess feels in danger. Without saying goodbye, Budi immediately ran, back to the multipurpose building.

“Hoe, what do you want?” shout so up. There were people swarming around her mother and sister.

“Weis, relax first Bud!” said someone from them. It was Adi.

“You what?” Let's repeat the question.

“I'm not here to fuss with you Bud. I just want to give this” replied Adi.

His friends handed him two boxes, which were placed on the floor in front of Budi. I checked both boxes. It turned out to contain emergency lights, thick carpets, blankets, and some packaged food.

“We already have it all, Di” said Budi.

“Bud, I'm a bad guy. I hate you as much. But I also want, the time of the flood that used to be, I was sampled with Rouf” said Adi. Be silent.

“Yes, you really are. Impossible, I'll be better than you. But even once, let me return the good favor of Rouf” Paklek continued Adi. Budi has not commented.

“No explosives, no gas, no poison. My neck bet” Adi assured Budi.

“OK. Thanks yes, Di” says Budi.

“I'm saying goodbye, yes! May you guys be healthy always” Adi said as she extended her hand.

“Still, yes. I came here” replied Budi. He received Adi's hand. They shake hands for a moment.

“Bulek, Adi pamit” yelled to bu Ratih.

“Ya ngger. Thanks ya” replied Bu Ratih without moving from his seat.

“Come Put” exclaims Adi again, as it passes. But the princess did not answer.

Budi immediately checked all of Adi's luggage. So far, no hazardous materials have been stored in the electronic equipment provided by Adi.

In foodstuffs such as instant noodles as well, the packaging is still all original. No deflations, no marks on the glue, and no strange odors. It means it has not been done.

“Kalo battery, carpet, blanket, wear, Put!” said Budi.

“But if the food, mending not first, deh. Eat the one we had first!”

“Oke” replied Princess.

Bud invites the Princess to move the boxes closer to where Ratih's mom is sitting.

“Ngger, you change clothes first, gih!” pinta bu Ratih's. Just nod.

He took a change of clothes, then changed clothes in the corner. Budi asked his mother and sister to turn right. While laughing they obey Budi's request. The princess was patted with her mother, because of a prank, peeking at her brother. Anywhere laugh.

“Mas Budi macho really, bu” comments Princess.

“Hus” serve his mother. She laughed again.

“Udah bu” says Budi after a moment of silence.

“Tadi, residents have all evacuated, ngger?” ask Ratih while turning his body.

“But” Reply Budi.

“Loh, how?”

“Cronies of bude tuh. Pake all bring up the feeling affairs”

“Means?” ask Princess.

“About they don't like us, they don't want to be evacuated to the front here. In the future, we do not have to be the same. Take the debate first. Later, deh”

“Terus, where do they work?” ask Ratih ma'am.

“At home pack RT”

“Family mbah tum, how?” ask Ratih ma'am.

“Yes, Mbah Tum, Mbah Joyo, sir Friday, already can not come out. We can't go in either, Mom. Really cool the current. Mental-mental mulu, Budi” replied Budi.

“Ya Alloh. So, what's their fate?”

Budi did not answer. He took his cell phone and called someone. Talk happened. But apparently, what he expected did not materialize.

His eyes straight ahead. He still keeps thinking, how to get a rubber boat that has the engine.

*Allohu Akbar Allohu Akbar*.....

The voice of the Adhan broke the silence at dawn. Adel awakens, and finds Madina still asleep next to him. For a moment, he did not remember the plan last night. He grabbed his phone.

*Del, your gut feeling is real. Here we are again in the multipurpose building, village hall. But you don't have to worry, mother and daughter are all right*

“Astaghfirullohal’adzim” exciting Adel.

Adel's voice surprised Madina. Who instantly woke up from his sleep. He who is still not fully aware, is confused by the behavior of his brother who grusak-grusuk. Seeing her brother's phone on, she was also interested in checking her own phone.

“Innalillahi”

Madina was also no less surprised, when she saw the message that went into her phone. One message from the Princess, describing how the dark night atmosphere without electricity. And he's taking refuge with his mother. He called the Princess. But not connected. The phone signal has disappeared.

“Dek, want pilgrims, no?” ask Adel.

“Iya” replied Madina.

Madina immediately jumped from the bed, and headed to Adel's bathroom to fetch some ablution water. Although only two skkaat, but Adel looks impatient. He shortened his prayer reading, so that it would be finished quickly.

“Mbak, Madin coming, yes?” madina Pinta.

Adel did not answer immediately. He wants to answer, no. But he did not want to disappoint his sister.

“Yes already, mbak Adel the ati-ati, yes!” said Madina again. Adel doesn't know what to answer.

“Madin knows, really. Sister Adel worried about Madin why-why, right? No papa, mbak. Madin back up from back” continued Madina again.

“Adek's role here, more shoot needin” Adel said.

“Iya. Madin tahu” replied Madina.

“Yes, if you want to go, mending hunting dipake, raining suit! Madin see sikon first” continued Madina.

“Oke” reply Adel.

Madinapun down, to see the position of his parents. He walked normally, as if nothing had happened.

In the living room, he did not see his parents. There is no living room either. He tried to open the door to his parents' room. He chuckled, seeing that the two were still not dressed, and were still fast asleep.

Madina's back upstairs. She helped her brother to bring down the luggage. Not forgetting the logistics of the kitchen he also took. With careful steps, they arrange the luggage on the motorbike. As a boy scout, not a difficult thing for Madina, put the supplies on her brother's motorcycle.

Madina advised her brother to turn on his bike in the distance. He helped his brother push the motor, up to several tens of meters from the front gate of their house. And finally, Adelpun departed, released by prayer by his sister.

The sky was still dark, when Adel reached his village Budi. He had time to rotate through the hamlet whose position in the hills, to avoid the road that has been submerged in flood water. Luckily, the bridge and the road to the market were not submerged by the flood.

Although afraid too, crossing the bridge which was under the turbulent, but Adel forced himself to be brave. He went straight to the village hall that Budi had told him about.

“Adel?”

Budi immediately recognized who came, while directing the flashlight towards Adel. In a hurry he immediately greeted Adel.

“Abram not papa?” adel asked, after parking the bike.

“Alhamdulillah healthy” replied Budi. They shake.

“Ya Alloh, mbak Adel” exciting bu Ratih.

“Mother, Putri” exclaimed Adel, seeing that Ratih's bu appeared from the right side of the building. He immediately salimmed and kissed the hand. He also cheered the Princess.

“Mother isn't papa?’ ask Adel.

“Alhamdulillah, no papa, nduk” replied bu Ratih.

“How come you are so desperate to come here, nduk? Same who?” ask Ratih ma'am.

“Self, bu” replied Adel.

“Ya Alloh, why must be reckless? The danger. This flood has not yet subsa”

“Yes how can Adel calm down at home, ma'am, if you have this kind of disaster? Adel will not be able to calm down, if not yet mastiin mother, mas budi, the same princess is fine. That night, I was able to calm down because of the sleep. So immediately panic, after opening a message from Budi” mas replied Adel.

“Ya Alloh, mbak. Yes, it's here, shady. Bring what, that?”take ma'am ratih.

“That's just the equipment that might be needed during evacuating, bu” Adel replied.

“Ngger, down ya!” pinta bu Ratih to Budi.

“Ya bu” reply Budi.

Currently, the multipurpose building has been opened its doors, and there are already several families who have taken refuge in it.

They seem to have fulfilled the needs of pedestals, blankets, and lighting. But it's different with Ratih's mom. It seems they only use the usual mattress for camping. Adel could guess what had happened.

“Bu, this is a mattress for extra base” said Adel.

Adel took apart the contents of his backpack, and held a similar mattress next to Ratih's mattress. The two mats he brought, he had a title there. Seeing there are some elderly in this building, Adel crossed an idea.

“Bram, there's clean water, right? Make some yuk tea! Poor them cold” asked Adel to Budi.

“There. There's five gallons. Last night Pakde Kusno who bawain” replied Budi.

“Please fetchin, dong!” pinta Adel's.

He unpacked his backpack. He took out the portable gas stove he had prepared. Although it can only be loaded with a small pot, but he hopes, it can be enough for everyone here. Minimum elderly.

Seeing her brother and future sister-in-law busy making warm drinks, the Princess did not want to miss. He gave his mother permission to find a glass.

Luckily, there was a plastic shop that the owner was waiting for that night. He immediately bought a pack of plastic cups at once. And immediately return to the multipurpose building.

When he came back, he suddenly heard people screaming. When he looked back, it turned out that the other river was also overflowing. And the water quickly covered the road.

In just a matter of seconds, the floodwater was already close enough to where he stood. Though the distance was originally, over a hundred meters. The princess ran to get to the multipurpose building quickly.

Up in front of the building, it turns out from the north, flood water from the same river, even already preceded it. There was panic in the building. And it looks like his brother is raising parked motorcycles, to the terrace of the multipurpose building. Some people helped him.

“PRINCESS, LARIII” shouted Adel.

The princess looked back. Flood water that was only small, suddenly rolled up, and high, almost able to swallow his body. The princess ran away with all her strength.

*BRUUUUUSSSS*

The flood water was crashing fast, crashing into the foundation of the multipurpose building. The tightness of the flood currents, making the water jump to the terrace of the building.

“AAAAA”

“PUTRIII”
