The rain is still heavy, the wind is still blowing hard which causes the air temperature to increase, the thick fog moves quickly following the strong wind. No Tifano, no voice for help…..
I just fell under the rain.. I did not dare to move at all because the branches and branches of large trees in each yard of the house moved wildly…
When I am in this state I remember God, and the only help is from God alone.
“Ya Allah.. Please help your servant Allah”.
The dense fog gradually thinned and eventually disappeared carried away by the strong wind…. But the rain and strong winds are still going on….
I did not look back, I immediately ran to the house.I no longer care about Tifano, just save yourself first!
Cold shivering I no longer feel, just run to the house.
I opened the door of the house tightly closed, the warm air from the fireplace welcomed me….
In a drenched state, I headed straight to the fire furnace.
“Mas Tifano where mas WIldan” asked Novi who was sitting on the floor of the house that had been lined with used clothes
“Neither N..Nov. k.. m.men's condition.. Bbbrrrr” I shiver in the cold
“Please your clothes first mas.. This Novi has prepared clothes for WIldan”
Novi turned out to have prepared everything.from used clothes that we will use ground floor coating, and then the clothes that I will use….
“Neventually, I have clothes in my backpack.. I only wear my clothes instead of the clothes in that room”
Novi was still sitting on the floor dressed in old clothes, he just kept quiet and looked at me who was cold without any further questions about Tifano.
I took the warm drinking water that Tifano and I had made when Tifano and I had come here before.
“Why are you quiet Nov? Don't ask me what is it and how is Tifano missing?”
“Nggak mas WIl.paling is also the same as the others”.
“You're still cold Nov, here isn't it warmer than out there?”
“Ngak mas, already warm kok mas”
There was something strange about Novi, he answered all my questions with ordinary, expressionless, and, unlike Novi which I usually meet with enthusiasm and attention and try to take the opportunity in the narrowness to touch or do an action.
“Our faces are still pale as if they were cold Nov”
“No papa mas.. Better mas Wildan sleep first, tomorrow try to be able to go from here to seek help, because friends mas Wildan definitely need help”
“What... you said what Nov?” I looked at Novi who was two meters in front of me in more detail
“What did you say Nov, my friend needs help? Where are they all now?”
“Novi do not know mas, anyway tomorrow mas WIldan immediately find a way out of this village, rather than mas Wildan stuck here and can not get out for eternity”
Novi's words were terrible, as if something deep and black was going on here, as if I was the only one who could help my friends… Iha keep Novi who is already frayed and bearded what is it?
The way he bicoro is also a bit strange, not as usual…. But ah come on, I've started to sleepy after eating grilled cassava.
I saw Ivon's watch on my wrist.. Hmm there is a compass, quite can be used for wind direction.
Kulirik Novi.he is still next to me, his face and eyes he never separated from me, but not the face that always ngatjeng like Novi all this time. His face was more expressionless and calm.
I saw my watch…
Outside the sound of rain still rumbling accompanied by the sound of wind, fortunately this house is designed in such a way, so it is safe from the sweep of strong winds.
It's just a few times the wind came in through the top of the house that was hollow.
I'm sleepy…..
BRACKET.. BRACKET..BRACKET..BRACKET..BRACK……..
I woke up when I heard the sound of a crack repeatedly….
Kutby right left….. Novi is not next to me.. While the stove furnace fire is no longer burning, only my embers are still blushing.
“Nov... Where are you?”
BRACKET.. BRACKET..BRACKET..BRACKET..BRACK……..
The brak brak's voice was still heard, and it seemed that it came from the room where the pile of clothes and hair were.
I was still sitting in the middle of the room of the house where the air was getting colder, and it was a bit more horrible than before I slept, because the fire in the furnace was dead…
“Nov..You are Nov, don't mess around donk!”
There is no word from Novi.the air is getting colder because it turns out the wind outside the house is still blowing hard.
I took some twigs and branches that were piled up in the corner in the house.I immediately put dry twigs and dry tree branches into the furnace of fire.
Warm air came out from the burning furnace, and the firelight from the furnace illuminated the living room state of this house again
“You where Nov.. let's not mess around”
There was no authentic voice from Novi. The sound of the brak-brak was still heard loud.it must have been the sound of the window of the room that opened due to strong wind outside.
I stood up and headed towards the room containing the pile of used clothes.. Actually I was afraid to go there too, because it was pitch dark.
“There are still a few torches. I just use one of those torches”.
“Lumayan.. Can to clean a terrible room hehehe”
“C*k.. still midnight this asyuuu!” my watch is 23:50
The door of the room which was only a worn-out mosquito net I threw to the side. with a torch in hand I entered the dark room…
“C*k.. turned out to be real... This room window is open.. hmm what Novi went from this house through this window huh?”.
I stepped on the clothes and haircut that was lying in the middle of the room to close the open window due to the strong wind from outside.
Crutches…. The voice that appeared when I stepped on the pile of clothes in the room.
“What's that noise... hadeeehh, why is there a strange sound in this pile of used clothes c*k”.
Immediately I reached the window that was open because of the strong wind…
Fog.. The fog came again, the dense fog carried by the wind came again, and some went through this open window.
“Sik sik... earlier I had seen there is a human shadow in the middle of the fog, but the shadow is not alone, which I had seen there were some shadows that were walking towards the village”
“But now the shadow is no longer there.. it is gone!”
Why every time there is a dense fog, there is always a shadow that follows it. whether I should follow the shadow to reach where my friend is.
There is only a very dense fog.. And the fog gradually disappeared, then replaced with a thin fog that is always present in this village
Was Novi out the window, but why did he go out, and where did he go?
After I closed the shutters, I went back to the middle of the house where the heat was getting warm again, I sat alone while watching the whole room in front of me.
The torch fire I have turned off, the only lighting now comes from the cooking stove, there is nothing strange around this house, everything is still as before, he said, nothing has changed at all except the Novi that suddenly disappeared.
Drowsiness had begun to disappear, I was curious about the sound of the crack, when I stepped on it. It sounded like something fragile but loud….
