THE RECORD: From Behind The Camera, He Keeps Watching
CHAPTER 23: It's Begin
My heart was squeezed by panic. From the earpiece hanging in each of our ears, there was a conversation Max and the residents who kept questioning him a lot.
Starting from where Max really is, who he's driving with or other things that I don't really think need to be asked. Somehow Max could respond to that calmly. While the shiny celurit is eyeing it from a very close distance. Pushing all my breath and my attention in agonizing tightness.
I was so scared.
Perhaps Isaac realized that I was standing behind him barely breathing, the young man turned his head and followed my gaze. Instantly his body stiffened with a shaky hand holding my wrist tightly.
“Guys.” The young man gasped when he found what I saw.
Hearing Isaac's whisper, the four people who were walking ahead realized we had stopped suddenly. With astonishment, they twisted his body in unison. That way, what we saw arrived at their sight.
Now a crescent is slowly being removed. As if ready to be cut.
The hand holding the celurit was held up high. While Rose behind me rebelled from Noah–ingin running after.
“Max–” before Rose's shout airs, Noah smothers the girl's mouth in quick motion.
But late.
One of the residents holding the celurit heard it. Watchfully the man turned his head around staring around the river–watchful. Put that thing down. Suddenly we hid deeper and deeper into the muddy ground.
“You heard that?” asked one of them sounded from the earpiece.
“What?”
“I heard something,” the celurit bearer sounded alert.
“Maybe crow,” timpal the other. “Yes, you better be careful. Here the road is quiet, you should have the mechanic come faster.”
All of us under the bridge looked at each other in astonishment. Did we not hear wrong? Isaac who was the tallest among us peeked out slowly poking his head from the perimeter of the overhanging ground.
“What happened?” With a voice full of panic, Rose asked impatiently.
Isaac extended his neck to see more clearly. “Nothing happened. Celurit it .. “
The tallest of us went back down. Staring at us one-on-one with a flat gaze before exhaling a sigh of relief, “They whipped the vines over the car.”
Hearing the sentence full of relief Isaac uttered made all the fear and worry just blow out of our minds. Ethan and Delilah cursed out. While I am …
I just keep quiet. I don't know, on the one hand I did feel relieved that what we thought about the villagers was not quite right. But there was something deep beneath my heart and mind, growing like a seed. Deep buried with my efforts to think as positive as possible about the place we will visit. Something that I was not given complete relief.
“Geez.” Rose hissing. Let go of a little laughter because you've been thinking too much. Then the camera screen is lifted. Read comments filled with swearlings because they feel deceived. Even so the audience that entered grew more and more. Gift is getting crazy.
“You good, Rose?” max's voice sounded in a witty tone. When we tried to check, apparently the two men were no longer there.
“I thought they were going to do something to you,” chuckles the girl like feeling stupid. Max overcame it with a laugh.
“They're laughing at you. Especially you, Rose. They said you almost cried. Too bad for me, huh?” Max teases playfully. Hearing the temptation, Rose rolled her eyeballs off guard even though the young man who was the target of the flick did not see it.
“Shut up. Do not die once I get here,” ketus girl while standing ready to go back on the journey.
From the car, Max was getting more and more entertained. “I love you too, Bish” should not get tired of throwing temptations.
After that light heartwarming atmosphere, we decided to walk under the bridge avoiding the villagers from seeing. Trudged, step by step we followed through in the hope that nothing would stand in our way.
As soon as the six of us were in the opposite area, Max waved from the front of the car. Encourage us with enthusiasm. “Cautious.”
Rose brandished her thumb, “You too, Max. Wait us.”
“I’ll be here.”
With the last sentence from Max, we turned to face the forest overgrown with trees that stood towering bravely. I don't know the type, it looks a bit like pine but their fringed leaves, pretty much look like spruce or birch.
Rose took a breath.
“Let's go.”
By command of Rose …
The adventure begins.
