TRAPPED IN THE MAYIT VALLEY

CHAPTER 34. SAME VILLAGE, DIFFERENT ATMOSPHERE

The journey with this motorbike felt very slow, because the motorbike we were riding had to walk very slowly to avoid the rocks and holes on the trail, especially plus the path that was getting uphill.

Day is like dusk…. The sunlight could not penetrate the leaves of the tree, coupled with the thin mist, and the air temperature was getting colder.

Several times I looked back, there was no other object following us, which meant that there was no ojek Gilank was riding in this direction.

The Ojek I was riding finally arrived in front of the bridge that we will pass to get to the village, Broni, Novi, Tifano and Bondet were waiting on the river bank.

Why is everything the same as what was in my dream. This river, this bridge, even the bamboo is the same as I dreamed…

“Wil.... Where is Gilank?”

“Mbuh Bron.. koyok usually arek it should not want to follow what we do.. was when I and Ivon walked to the post that you say, Gilank said he wanted to rest, but don't know where she went

“Tadi ojek who want to pick up Gilank mass has been told by Wildan to find Gilank mass behind us” said Ivon

“Waduu.. We can't leave him if that's the case, we're still waiting for Gilank here Wil” said Broni

“Live ae Bron, later he will be delivered ojek here, already let him stay ae” said Bondet

“Ojok Ndet..

The Ojek we were riding was gone, we were still on the side of the bridge waiting for Gilank who had not yet appeared…

The day was getting late and late in the afternoon.The fog still hung around us, the air temperature was getting colder and not yet seen the arrival of Gilank.

“Bron gini…. I'm here waiting for Gilank, you enter the village first to meet the village elders, later I will follow there, or if you have settled with the village business, then I will go there, you're here again if Gilank and I haven't followed you”

“Ya wis Wil. but you better be accompanied by one of our friends Wil.”

“Ivon aja nemeni mas Wildan, because it was Gilank mas should be with us Bron” said ivon

Finally Ivon and I waited at the end of the bridge, while my other friend had crossed the bridge to head towards the village across the bridge.

Arriving at this groove is different from my dream, time is in my dream Gilank is gone when he is in the river to defecate, but this one is clearly different.

“Mas Wil.. are we not going there?” ivon said as he looked at the forest we had been through

“Hehehe... I don't think deh Von.. The state of the forest is already much different from when we came, try to see that the fog that enveloped the forest.

“Iya mas, and the closer the afternoon, the situation in the forest is getting darker, but now it is not late afternoon, let alone twilight and night mas”

“Iya Von... uh we better wait here. Uh actually I'm scared that this is coming true Von”

“What do you mean mas?”

“Gini Von... remember not when we finish eating satay, I will have time to sleep and wake up by Broni. Well at that time I had a dream, a dream that was like real and I could feel, not a dream that was just a dream just”

I told Ivon about my dream.I strangely remember all the details about the dream I had, and I'm almost crazy.

“What was his dream in Wildan exactly the same as the details here, with everything we passed?”

“Sama exactly Von.. the difference is we were staying at the party officials house, while in my dream we were riding a car until the car was stuck there…. the road is narrowed by being flanked by a large tree that”

“Different things happened, but the place we came to is the same.This bridge, this river, that terrible bamboo tree is exactly the same as my dream Von.

It was getting late in the afternoon, and there were no sightings of Gilank…

“if in my opinion, the taxi that will take Gilank does not dare to take risks with the state of the forest with the condition of the risky uphill road to come here, especially with the conditions that are getting darker and full of fog”

“Iya mas Wil.. can also be like that mas..Pasti ojek told Gilank to come the next day than the ojek was here with full risk”.

“Ya already Von. we enter the village aja yuk, rather than here cold”.

When Ivon and I were about to walk across the river, from the front Broni came alone…. He's approaching me and Ivon, who are crossing the bridge.

“Gilank hasn't arrived Wil?” ask Broni

“No Bron, maybe tomorrow. Let's look at the dark forest full of fog, like his ojek do not want to take the risk by bringing the ashu here. Maybe tomorrow he will come when the situation is normal”.

“Iya.. Actually you are Wil.but we are responsible for the assu's son Wil..”

“Quiet ae Bron, in sure load family kok heheheh”

“C*k your prize Wil!.. Let's go to the village, already awaited sir Sudikan there..”.

The day was getting darker as the fog gradually became more dense, I crossed the river whose water surface was partially covered with fog.

We walked on the cobbled village road, this road was the same as in my dreams, not so wide and rocky…. The thick one is the yard of the house that is here with a large tree in each yard of his house.

I shuddered as we passed through the first house where my friends and I spent the night, the house was always tightly closed and in his room there was a pile of used clothes and a pile of haircuts.

But this one is different.. The window of the house was open, there was a middle-aged woman who was sweeping the courtyard.and there was smoke in the corner of the yard, smoke burning the remaining leaves that fell.

The middle-aged woman with her hair curled smiled at us who passed her house, I replied to the smile of the woman who was still sweeping the front yard of her house.

In the second house the same…. There was a little boy standing in the yard with a rather old woman who was most likely his mother.. They both smiled at us as well.

Different from what I had in my dreams…. Evening a rather foggy day there are still residents activities here, such as sweeping the yard and burning the foliage garbage.

We walked on and then turned to the left…. But said Broni elder or who became the leader of this village is not Pak Sapudi but pak Sudikan.

“Bron still keep it?”

“In front there will be a T-junction.we are straight, and arrive at home pak Sudikan”.

“Our friends are already there all, they are waiting for us Wil”

Ancuk!. instead of that, Mr. Sapudi's house. why should we go to that terrible house, surely later we will be invited to the empty house next to the Sudikan house.

I looked at Ivon, I wanted to imply that my dream of which house we're heading to is exactly the same as the one here.

The more the afternoon, the fog became more concentrated than before, the air temperature was getting lower…. It felt like I wanted to get to the house, rather than being cold here.
