TRAPPED IN THE MAYIT VALLEY

CHAPTER 76. YOU'VE BEEN MISSING FOR A YEAR

“True... This is where we start early heading to the valley of mayit.. Novi still remember some tetenger here mas, but something has changed mas”

“I also feel also this place something changed Nov, but I still think what changed it”

We continued to walk up to several tens of meters to the residential area, I still remember near the market there was a depot where we had breakfast before leaving for the Asri valley or uh valley mayit.

But until now the three of us still have not met a single person in this area.

We kept going until then I'm sure we're now near the market.

“In front it is a rec market, but why the market is quiet, dark, and cleaner than before” said Gilank

“Iya mas Lank. the market is somewhat different from when we came here yes... nicer, what is possible because the market fence was painted yes mas….. But why is it so quiet, there is no one at all”

“Iya Nov is weird, I'm really goosebumps now Nov?” Gilank

“Why on Gilank?”

“Do you not think Nov, we seem to leave here a long time ago Nov..” said Gilank.

“Iya Lank, right you, I also feel creepy, we like not here until a few months”

“Find his party post first Lank, a red post with a picture of a woman clenching her hands”

“Wil, it should be a post made by the party is next to the market, but now there is no yes, what post has moved”

We kept walking through the market, I really hoped we would meet someone who could help us to go to the bus terminal.

And it turns out that what I was thinking was happening as well, in front of us not far from here was a truck that was stopping.

A truck full of cargo, maybe it's carrying a load that will be delivered to the market.

“Mas Wil, this market should never be deserted mas, as far as Novi whose name is the market is right at this hour must be rame with traders that I eat, but why is this market like a dead market?”

“Iya Nov, this market should not be this lonely, whether... ah already, we go to the truck first, we ask them if they can take us to the nearest terminal”

The three of us approached the truck that was stopping, and coincidentally, next to the truck were two people who were sitting on the road beside the truck while smoking.

“You two stay quiet first, let me talk to them, because our situation is strange, so do not cause suspicion for them it”

“Iya mas Wil..” replied Novi, while Gilank just nodded.

We half ran towards the diesel colt truck that was parked, at the back of it like it was full of cargo.

As we got closer to the truck, the two sitting men stood up, but they did not come to us, they stayed in their original positions.

One of the men looked old probably around the age of fifty, while the other was much younger, probably still a dozen.

“Goodnight sir” I tried to say hello well

“Iya mas... The three of you are who and from where. How from there?” said the old man while pointing in the direction where we came from

“Eh us from there sir. Uh we got lost” I was confused as to what answer

“You get lost where, you know where that is, and what's there?” said the old man

“I don't know sir. We are from there and want to pasar”

“You answer first, you guys are from where midnight is twelve o'clock more. You are not here.. and your accent is logat java area timuran”.

I don't know what to say, because the old man who might be the truck driver said something that made me unable to answer at all.

“Sini... you guys get closer here first, I want to chat with you guys first, your face is pale and sweaty once, whereas here the weather is cold, eh you want coffee?”

“Mau pak” says Gilang suddenly

“I want to drink water only pak” said Novi

The old man then told his younger friend to make us some coffee.

It turned out that in the truck there was a thermos containing coffee that was still hot, GIlank and I were given coffee, while Novi was given one glass of mineral water.

“You are from where and going where.. oh yes my name is Tejo, and this is my son whose name is Tedi. This truck I am waiting to unload on the market one more hour”

“I'm a native here, and I know exactly this area, so you guys don't lie to me” Mr Tejo said

“No one here or out of town would dare to go where you came at this hour...” said Mr. Tejo again.

Before answering the questions of Mr. Tejo, we drink coffee and mineral water first given the children of Tejo, we are thirsty.

“Hehehe from the way you drink, you guys seem to be from afar huh..”

“Begini sir. My name is Wildan, this one is GIlank, and the female one is Novi. we are from the city of S pak”

“We are actually seven, and we are here at the invitation of our friend who joined the party to campaign for the candidate who is being seeded by our friend”

“We do not know when we came here, anyway we came here by car, then we stayed at the house of party officials in this place, and tomorrow we go on an ojek ride to the valley village of Asri”

“Stop.....don't talk first” said Mr. Tejo cut my talk

“Have you guys ever come along with your friend whose name is ya.. If it is not wrong name Broni.

“LHO'S.. HOW DO YOU KNOW OUR FRIEND BRONI!”

“Quiet mas.......!” said the father again

“Quiet... I am not surprised by your presence here” said Mr Tejo again.

“I know this mas who came again to the house because the group left, who spent another day at home... I still remember your face” said Mr. Tejo while pointing Gilank.

“I am the keeper of the house, I am the housekeeper of Mr. Raseko, I opened the gate of the house door when you come at night by car”

“Then you leave the house by using Ojek, you do not return for approximately one year!” said Mr. Tejo calmly

Ha.. one year we were missing….

“In this one year you guys are fortunately still healthy, and fresh in shape!”

“Many come here to look for your whereabouts, even from your home regional police who cooperate with the police here looking for a swarm in that direction, but your entourage is like swallowed by bumi”

“Even your family made a post there, near the former market, there your family alternately waiting for your arrival”

“But if it is not wrong after three months of waiting, and you have no news, your family is no longer waiting for you.”

“You just disappeared....!”

“I'm sure you're not demit hehehe”

“Luckily you three went home safely without less anything”

“Pak.. how can we be lost as long as it's pak” Novi said

“It's a pleasure, I know what you're going through there, so you don't have to tell me how you're there and what's going on there, because I already know, I already know, and I had it before my son Tedi was born!”

“What a miracle you can come here safely!” said mr. Tejo

“My knowledge.. I kind of forgot…. Uh you five or how many people?” ask Mr. Tejo

“We are seven pak” replied Novi

“Where are Broni and other friends?” ask Mr. Tejo

“We parted with them sir.. uh let me tell you first sir, because we split up when there pak”
