After taking a shower, I approached Mom who was washing dishes in the kitchen. I greeted Mom from behind, Mom just looked at me for a while and then looked back at the plate.
Before long Jessica came in neat clothes.
"Come on, Mom, I'm ready."
"Yes for a second, Dania I want to go to the market for a while, you take the BBQ grill in the back. Here's the key, look out sometimes the key likes to be broken."
"Yes ma'am." I took the key I gave you.
"You're in the car, Jessica."
"Yes, don't be long, ma'am." Jessica got out of the kitchen, headed for the car to wait for Mom there.
"Yes, you have left first, yes, do not forget to take the barn in the back, be careful but." My mother reminded me once again.
"Yes ma'am, I'm careful too."
After Mom left, I walked towards the back shed, the space separated from the house building. From childhood I would most dislike having to go to the storehouse alone, like someone was following me from behind.
I turned the key around, then pushed it. It's hard, but I made it. I leave the door open when I'm inside, let some light come in.
This building has been a long time, it looks scary even though it is still day. I gulped to relieve my fear, then looked at the grill from behind the pile of unused cardboard.
I removed the pile of cardboard carefully. I stopped my movements, as I heard someone's footsteps approaching me, followed by a shadow.
I closed my eyes, biting my lower lip.
I groaned softly by dropping the cardboard I was carrying, when someone's hand hit my shoulder.
"Why?"
I opened my eyes when I saw that voice. I turned around, hugging Rangga in front of me.
My body is still shaking because of this incident.
"Aren't you papa?"
I woke up from my imagination, then let go of my embrace towards her. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
"Why are you here?"
"I want to take the grill." I pointed it at the grill.
"Ooh." Rangga took the grill and brought it.
When we want to go out the door sounds closed loudly, due to the wind out there is very strong. I tried to pull the doorknob, it was hard to open the door.
Rangga put the grill down, then tried to open the door.
I remember what Mom said if the door lock was broken sometimes.
I looked out of the window, saw a flash in the sky very bright, followed by lightning. I leaned my body against the wall and then slowly descended to the ground, I bent my legs parallel to my chest, beating it with my hands.
Rangga sat next to me. "Why can the door lock be broken?"
"I don't know, but Mom said. The door lock is often broken suddenly."
The atmosphere was silent for a moment. The sound of lightning was getting louder out there, I covered my ears with my palms, then closed my eyes.
The sound of lightning outside was very loud, I closed my eyes even tighter, I bit my upper lip, held back my tears, so as not to fall.
I hope there's no more, I'm so scared of lightning.
"Aren't you papa?"
I did not answer any questions from Rangga even though I heard her voice faintly.
I opened my eyes, when Rangga's hand hit my shoulder, he grabbed me.
"Are you scared, huh? just calm down, there's me."
I just nodded, glancing at Rangga. Where's everyone, isn't anyone looking for us?
Before long the sound of lightning was no longer heard, I released my arms from my shoulders, then stood up.
"Please, we're stuck here!" I said many times with a high tone.
"Where is everyone, did no one hear my screams?"
Rangga stood up, approaching me who was standing in front of the window.
"Maybe everyone is busy with their work. Wait a minute for the most people to help us."
I again sat leaning against the wall, while Rangga stood casually, leaning against the wall, with his hands folded against his chest.
Before long I heard the sound of someone trying to open the door. I stood up straight. "Hallo."
"Mr Dania?"
Mang Tejo's voice is out there. "Yes, help us, we're stuck here."
"Yes, just a minute."
Before long the door opened, we went straight out of the barn. The grill was brought by Mang Tejo out, inside the house there were many neighbors who helped this event. I went straight to the room, to take a shower.
Time has shown at 18:30 the event is done outside, all the guests have come. This event was attended by neighbors around, I approached Jessica who was in front of the grill.
"How about Rangga?"
"What do you mean?"
"I know you, if Rangga had not loved mbak Dania all this time. So there's still a chance for me."
Aku menoleh kearah Jessica. "Darimana Jessica tau selama ini."
"Where is Dania Rangga?" Mom came from behind me.
"Still in the room."
"Tell me out, the show's about to start."
"Yes, Mom."
I walked away from Mom and Jessica, when I reached the room I saw Rangga was looking at her leptop.
