Hearing Natalia's complaints about the trip they did that seemed very rushed but still did not produce anything now made Madika start to reflect.
he began to think that all this time they did not have enough time to sleep.
they continued to travel despite not knowing where to go.
"yeah...." Madika sighed. "as He said you have a point.... perhaps best for now we postpone our journey until our minds are really ready to restart the next journey, maybe now we have traveled for four or maybe five months, so maybe this is the right time to take a break" Madika said.
"that's good.the end you understand too." said Natalia who then leaned her head to Madika's shoulder.
Now Madika and Natalia also agreed to postpone the trip.they intend to rest for a long time.
Shortly after that, the grilled meat was ripe and ready to eat.
both of them now eat the meat directly from his prick.
After they finished eating, the two of them immediately looked for a place that was good enough to use as a shelter and good enough to build a small house for them to take shelter.
shortly after, the two of them arrived at one of the giant trees in that place.
the tree looked very large, even its roots seemed to spread quite widely around him.
"this place is pretty good, but it's too high" Madika said as she looked at the giant tree.
"then what are you looking for?" ask Natalia.
"i was looking for a tree with a very strong trunk, many branches, and a height that we can still reach easily" said Madika explained.
after that Madika again invites Natalia to search again.
After a long search, they both found a perfect place to build their little house.
because Madika intends to build a house on a tree, then now they have found a tree that has all the criteria needed by Madika.
not only the criteria of the tree is appropriate, even the location is also quite good because it is not far from one of the springs.
"even though the springs in this place are very small, but if made a well then the water can be accommodated more" said Madika who seemed a little satisfied with it.
"so is it broken to be here or not?" ask Natalia to make sure.
"hmm." muttered Madika while nodding. "we will use this place!" said Madika.
After deciding that, now Madika and Natalia immediately started their small home construction project.
they began to collect some wood and make some rope using the plant fibers around them.
they also began to arrange the skeleton of the tree house very well.
after the skeleton of the tree house was finished, now they began to make walls and roofs on the tree house.
for the walls, they use some light wood in the forest, while for the roof, they use the leaves of plants similar to coconut leaves.
then they arranged the walls of the roof very neatly.
after the walls, roof, and floor have been completed, now just decorate and give a little extra around the house to make it look more attractive again.
The house is now completed perfectly.
the area of the tree house they built was 3x4 meters in size on the inside of the house, and 2x4 meters for the terrace.
while the height of the house was from the ground level about four or five meters high.
to go up to the house they have to use the stairs that have been prepared.
as for the place of cooking and doing other activities are now available under the house.
under the house there is a kitchen and a bathroom if they want to change clothes.in addition to the bathroom they also make a toilet in a separate place from the bathroom.
meanwhile, next to the bathroom there is a clothesline to dry their clothes made of animal skin that they had hunted before.
"hah.. the end is finished too." said Natalia who now smiles satisfied staring at the small house.on the tree.
"if based on my estimation, the time we've spent making all of this is likely to be about two or three weeks." said Madika who is currently sitting on a stone in the yard under the tree house.
"huh... really quite a long time." replied Natalia who then walked towards the well they made after seeing the spring before her.
after that Natalia took the dipper that was near her, then she took water and drank it.
"do you want a drink too?" natalia asked while looking at Madika.
"ehm." muttered Madika while nodding.
After Madika nodded, Natalia brought him water from the well and gave it to Madika.
natalia sat down next to Madika.
"i think now this house is safe enough to rest" Natalia said while watching the tree house.
"i think so too. with this height, I don't think there will be any animals interested in finding out the contents in this house.... anything else in this place I've never seen a flying animal or an animal that can climb, so I think it's safe." obviously Madika after gulping down the water that Natalia gave her.
"hah.. the end can rest quietly." said Natalia who then immediately went to the tree house.
Seeing Natalia who had now climbed the stairs and arrived at the house, Madika immediately stood up.
he then went up there too.
when Madika arrived at the top of the house, she saw Natalia had entered the house and prepared her bed.
Meanwhile, Madika who is currently still on the porch of the house is now sitting and pulling a jug filled with palm wine in her.
he then poured the wine into the cup that was with the jug.
"hah... once relax like this is indeed quite pleasant." inner Madika who then drank the wine she poured in the cup.
