Ballad of Love The Dancer
Chapter 8

Sari was in a place that was unfamiliar to her, where there was no light at all. He started to get scared, and walked slowly in the dark. Trying to close his eyes so as not to fall while walking.

" Where is this..."

The light that illuminates Sari's path is only the moonlight that shamelessly penetrates from behind the lush trees. The growing fear enveloped him coupled with a thin mist that began to descend blocking his view.

Suddenly a heartbreaking scream from a woman was heard, Sari gasped her body trembling in fear. The voice was so heartbreaking as if it was enduring immense pain.

Sari walked into the precipitate trying to find the source of the sound even though she herself could not help her trembling body in fear. Finally he found the source of the sound.

In front of him stood a pair of men and women who were fighting. Not sure what they were talking about, Sari just concluded they were fighting because they were seen pushing each other. Sari tried to shift her body in order to see clearly.

He was surprised because in front of a pair of men and women was splashed another woman's body with a dancer's clothes. Sari closed her mouth, holding back her shock.

" Oh my God, what happened, they killed him." he muttered trembling.

Despite the lack of light, Sari could see the lying body was drenched in blood. And a pair of men and women didn't even seem to care about the poor woman dressed as the dancer. They kept fighting about something until she left the man alone in the forest.

The man was frustrated and repeatedly grabbed his own hair. He stared at the motionless body in front of him and helplessly dragged the helpless body to the edge of the abyss. Sari tried to follow where the man was from behind his hideout.

" Aargh..j-don't.please..pardon a-me..."

The woman was still alive and let out a feeble voice once pleading for the chance to live.

He is still alive.What should I do, O Lord someone should help him, inner Sari.

Sari no longer cared about herself, she came out from her hiding place. He was trying to help the poor woman.

The man turned his head towards Sari, but instead of being surprised he gave a sinister grin. His eyes stared fiercely at Sari making Sari stop her steps.

" Don't hurt him, we can talk all right ?" pinta Sari slowly

The man remained in anger mode and then turned his head towards the woman dressed as a dancer. The man crouched down lifting the body of the dancing woman who was drooping limp and hugging her. Sari was surprised when she saw clearly the woman's face.

" I-it.me.." he muttered tremblingly.

Unexpectedly the man jumped into the abyss while hugging the dancing woman. Sari could even see the dancer's face as if saying the word "Please..."

" sar...Sari...hey wake up Sar, you why Sar ?" Bagas tried to wake Sari from her sleep.

Sari was restless in her sleep and even muttered and shouted making Doni and Bagas worried.

" Sar.duh ni son why else, ngeyel anyway said do not read this book as well" said Bagas annoyed

" Yin..."

Sari finally woke up by herself. Cold sweat washed over his body. Bagas who was worried about Sari directly held out a bottle of mineral water.

" Bad dreams ?" tanya Bagas who followed the nod of the head from Sari

" Such.very bad dreams."
