Just a little break
Wulan and Donny (The Grandpa)

In another village. In a village called North Wind. Donny woke up from a long sleep. How happy he was, to find himself alive.

He was very grateful to the fisherman who found him. He was found caught in the fishing net. When I was going to catch fish.

“How long have I been asleep, Uncle?” tanyakanya.

“About three days.” reply fisherman.

How lucky Donny is. As soon as he told her who he was and what happened to him. It turned out that the fisherman, along with the villagers, were supporters of the government. Donny is treated like a hero in the village.

Donny is told that government forces have triumphed over rebel forces. Now, the time of peace has come. All the joints of life will again grow and develop in this country. Safe and comfortable conditions include in each inch of the soil.

After his condition completely recovered. Donny was about to return to the village where the main forces gathered to form a power base. To see the condition of his friends and commanders.

But before all that. He wants to see his girlfriend, Wulan. The distance from the village of North Wind to the village of Kayu Manis is not far only about a day trip. He also planned the trip.

He paid his respects to all the villagers. He was given a lot of supplies on the way, and was given a truck ride, which happened to be traveling through Kayu Manis village. Then, after morning greet. He left with great enthusiasm.

He sat in front with the truck driver. On the way, the two of them were unceasingly chatting and humming. Celebrating the government's victory over the rebels. While occasionally opening the provision of travel, to be eaten together.

On the side of the road. He saw an old man sitting alone under the shade of a tree. Pity suddenly enveloped him.

He asked the driver to stop for a moment. To see the condition of the grandfather. Because who knows if he needs a ride or food.

He came down with his bag containing a lot of food and drinks. From the villagers. He approached the grandfather.

His clothes are dirty and dirty. His eyes were weak and a wooden stick that was the same as a dry tree branch. Donny asked Grandpa where he was going, where his family was.

Grandfather only replied if he did not want to go anywhere and he also had no one. At this old age. He just wants to spend time helping others.

Donny smiled, hearing what he said. Then he gave half the trip to the grandfather. Good food and fresh drinks he took out and gave it straight away. So that the grandfather does not feel hunger and thirst.

“Thank you, Son. You're so nice. I will always be there to help you,” he said.

Donny smiled and said goodbye, and he got back in the truck. Before he sat down, he looked back. To see Grandpa again. Strangely, however, the grandfather had disappeared without a trace.

Donny's confused. The truck driver was even more confused. Because he thinks Donny's asking to stop for permission to pee. But in fact, he noticed.

Donny just talked to a tree himself. The truck driver thought Donny was tired and needed a break. In the afternoon, near dusk.

Donny has arrived at the Cute Wood village. How bright his smile, because soon he can meet with his lover and prospective love fruit. He said goodbye to the truck driver who still had to continue the journey again.

Their treatment was far different from the last time he stayed here. Their treatment became very cold and indifferent to him. Especially when Donny mentioned Wulan's name in front of them. Some of them swore to say.

“Go you. Damn carrier base, aib maker.”

Donny doesn't understand what that means. Donny knows his mistake, so he wants to fix it and marry Wulan. Even if you have to bet your life or kiss the feet of the parents of Wulan's husband. To get permission and blessing.

Because no one can be asked and joked. Eventually Donny decides to meet Wulan at her house. He's headed for Wulan's house. When walking there. A few pairs of eyes were watching and looking at him.

Arriving in the courtyard, he had not been able to knock on the door. Suddenly a parent opened the door. He is Shaleh, his Uncle Wulan. Shaleh was surprised to find Donny at the door. He asked her to come in, and she locked the door.

Inside the house. Shaleh recounts what happened to Wulan, after Donny left him to join the fight against the rebels. Sad and angry mixed into one with Donny.

He wanted to take revenge on the people who had hurt Wulan. He also wanted to pick up Wulan immediately. To make sure he and the baby he contains are safe.

“If you want to catch Wulan, hurry up. Because I'm also afraid of being here for a long time. Huda and the people who support him will arrest and hurt you,” Shaleh said.

“That can't be Uncle. I am the main government force. They'll understand if they catch me and hurt me. They will be considered rebels,” said Donny.

“If so, go for Wulan, pick her up and take care of her. Because really I have no power to do that anymore,” said Shaleh.

The old man wept bitterly in front of Donny. Wish Donny could replace him, to protect him. And protect the baby that is being contained.

Donny did not reply to Shaleh's words. Suddenly in the courtyard of the house was heard crowded. Faintly Donny peeked through the window there were some villagers carrying torches and some weapons in the courtyard of this house.

“That's Huda and his men,” Shaleh said.

Donny weighed and watched carefully how many people were there, and what weapons they were carrying. If it was only one or two people, he could still deal with it. But if more than five people, it will be another story.

“That's enough, son. Get out of this house now!” shaleh Pinta.

Donny rushed through the back door. Without much more consideration he headed straight for the White Wood village. The place where the base of government troops gathered and also the place where Wulan and his future recruits headed.

That very night, accompanied by the moonlight that shone brightly. Donny's on foot. Because if you have to wait for the morning to get a ride. For him it was a long time ago. Huda and his men are hunting him. He has to be quick.

Donny walked up and down a steep hill. Walk dry and wet for hours. Occasionally there was the sound of a wolf roar and then the murmur of a snake slithered. But he didn't pay attention to it. He kept walking and walking.

Sometimes he also rested for a while. Lean on trees that bear fruit. Then walk again without caring about it day or night. The food is over. He ate the food that nature provided for him, especially fruits.

He drank the river water through which he passed. Sometimes also drink dew water or puddles where there are many insect animals that pull over on it. One indicator if the water in the forest is drinkable is. There are animals or some insects that like to perch or be on it.
