Three Cross - Time Youths

Sneaking into the Museum

The night has anchored its dark curtain, replacing the life of the day with peace and tranquility. The dim moonlight broke through the crevices of the trees, giving a hint of illumination amid the darkness. Only the sound of crickets and the gurgling of water from a fountain in front of the museum broke the silence.

Jayak took a deep breath, feeling the fresh scent of the night. "Remember the plan. We must move quickly and quietly" he whispered to Mado and Kunta.

Mado, with her sharp gaze, noticed the movement patterns of the surveillance cameras. "Wait..now!" he said, gesturing for them to run towards the side entrance.

With careful but definite steps, they entered the museum. The dim light from the emergency lights provides enough illumination for them to move. The walls of the museum are filled with historic paintings and artifacts, leaving the three fascinated.

Kunta, with sparkling eyes, approached a golden crown that was displayed in one of the rooms. The crown is shiny, decorated with colorful gems. "Wow, look at this! Like the crown the king used to wear in my village" he said in awe.

Without thinking, Kunta tried to wear the crown. However, suddenly the alarm went off loudly, leaving the three in shock.

"Country!" mishik Jayak in a annoyed tone.

Mado, who looked panicked, said, "We need to get out of here quickly before the guards come!"

Kunta, with a red face in shame, put the crown back on. "I'm sorry, I didn't know there would be an alarm" he said in a trembling voice.

There is no time to talk further. They ran around, looking for a way out while laughing. All their fears and worries are gone, replaced with adrenaline and laughter.

"There! Back door!" mado shouted as she pointed towards a door that seemed to be heading outside.

As they approached the door, the sound of footsteps grew closer. The museum guards seem to know where they are. Quickly, Jayak opens the door and they run towards the darkness of the night, leaving the museum and the sound of alarms still ringing.

After running far enough, the three stopped to catch their breath. Laughing, Mado said, "It was the most stressful and enjoyable experience I've ever had!"

Jayak smiled, "We made it! Although.. with a slight obstacle," he said while staring at Kunta.

Kunta lowered her head, "I'm sorry. But, at least we have a story to tell later, don't we?"

They laughed together, feeling happiness and relief. Although they did not find what they were looking for, the night became an adventure they will never forget.

Within the silence of the museum, there was only the clattering sound of lights and the seconds of the wall clock. The ancient exhibition room, with dim lighting, displays ancient artifacts neatly preserved behind glass. Although surrounded by darkness, each artifact appeared to glow, accentuating its beauty.

Kunta approaches an exhibition with ancient ceramics. "Look at this," he said in a trembling voice, "It's similar to the jars in my house. Mother used to keep water in it."

Mado stepped closer to an ancient, enclosed urn. "And this," he said as he stroked the surface gently, "Similar to the urn where my father kept the seeds of the plant."

Jayak approached an ancient blackboard made of stone. "I remember, back in my village, the elders used boards like this to teach us ancient script. Every character has meaning and a story" he said with teary eyes.

As the atmosphere begins to fill with longing and sadness, Jayak's eyes are fixed on an ancient weapon on display. "ah! Here goes! Favorite weapon!" he said while trying to take the weapon from behind the glass.

However, in his experiment, Jayak lost his balance and fell backwards with his legs raised into the air, while the weapon was still in his hands. The ridiculous Jayak pose made Mado and Kunta unable to help but laugh.

Jayak, with a flushed face, laughed back, "Well, I can at least cheer you up in the middle of this slightly gloomy atmosphere."

They continued to walk around inside the museum, discovering many memories from their past. Each artifact carries a memory, making all three feel like they are going back in time, even if only for a moment.

They sat on one of the benches inside the museum, looking around. The silence of the night, the decoration of the artifacts, and the ancient fragrance filled the room, giving it a deep serenity.

Mado looked at her two friends, "Thank you, buddy. Even if we're away from home, at least we still have each other."

Jayak nodded, "Yes, as long as we're together, we'll always have a 'house'."

Kunta, with teary eyes, added, "We may be stuck in the wrong times, but at least we have good memories to tell."

The three hugged each other, feeling the warmth of friendship amid the cold of the museum night. The atmosphere was full of haru, but also full of jokes and laughter. They know that, even though they are away from home, they always have each other.

The friendship-friendly decapitation was finally cut short when Jayak showed him his watch, hinting that it was time they left the museum. "We have to get out before sunrise, guys," she whispered slowly.

They started moving, avoiding the lights and surveillance cameras. Just as they were about to reach the exit, a sound of a ticking leg sounded, approaching. "Quick! Hide yourself!" kunta whiskey. They're looking for a place to hide. Behind the big curtain, Mado hides behind an information board, while Kunta hides behind a replica of an ancient statue.

A museum guard walked slowly, the flashlight in his hand sweeping the room, looking for the source of the sound he heard. After a few minutes that felt like hours, the guard finally left, leaving the three in suspense.

When the air seemed safer, they came out of hiding. "That's close," sighed Mado, taking off the museum employee costume she was wearing.

Jayak laughed at him, "You really look like a statue in that costume, Mado."

They made it to the exit, but it was locked. With cooperation, they searched for the nearest window. Kunta, with his power, managed to push the window open bit by bit, giving them access to get out.

They landed on the museum grounds, the cool night air welcoming them. Street lights illuminate the pavement, providing a soft light that bounces off the foliage. The sound of crickets fills the silence of the night.

However, the silence was soon interrupted by the laughter of some young people passing by. Mado, who had not taken off her costume, suddenly panicked and stood up straight, posing like a statue. Jayak and Kunta, seeing Mado's behavior, try to hold back the laughter.

A young girl approached Mado, "Well, new statue huh? How come I've never seen it before?" he said while trying to touch Mado.

Mado, trying hard to stay still, finally couldn't bear it and shouted in shock, making the girl startled and took a few steps back.

Jayak and Kunta, who had been holding back laughter all this time, finally exploded. "You really are a living statue, Mado!" jayak Laughter.

Mado, her face flushed red, saying, "Well, at least I managed to outwit them for a bit."

They continued on, leaving the museum with a lighter heart. Despite facing various difficulties, they managed to get through it safely thanks to the strong cooperation and friendship between them.
