After the journey from post 2 to Post 3 which took a half hour, the same journey as from post 1 to post 2, but a little bit long and twisted.
The trees were so densely decorated on each side of the right and left side of the road, the occasional sound of birds and the sight of the birds flying.
The view of Malang city is visible from the top of Mount Semeru.
Go to post 4 and rest.
The Ghost Jungle always took care of me, accompanied us down the mountain, more alert and observant in stepping.
The occasional look in his eyes warms my heart, encouraging me to keep stepping towards the top.
Our steps are further away, so it does not feel we enter the route to post 4.
The road is getting steeper and more steep, the energy is getting drained.
Fortunately when in post 3 we have filled the energy even though only perfunctory course.
Water, vitamins and food provide us with energy.
Do not forget when our prayer time stops to fulfill the obligation, so that the trip time is always in the ridhoi and guarded by the Khalik, Allah SWT.
On the way to post 4 we were amazed by the beauty of Lake Ranu Kumbolo.
Incredibly beautiful scenery, clear lake water is calm.
Making a feeling of fatigue due to carrying the carrier was gone.
Paid by the beautiful view of Ranu Kumbolo lake.
We got there at 9pm, and decided to build a tent, taking a break to recharge.
Because at midnight we will continue the journey, again climbing to reach the top of Mahameru.
Until the moment Niar and I sat in front of the tent came the Ghost of the Jungle, carrying a glass of warm tea with a packet of snacks," You two can't dream, don't let his mind go blank!"
"Eh.iya," I answered stammered, shocked to think Radhit's brother would come to my tent and Niar.
"Nih.., drink red ginger tea and also eat this snack. The picket friends were cooking rice, noodles and sardines for dinner.
Try to rest and eat to restore energy, the climb to post 4 was very draining energy.
I don't want anything to happen to you guys." As I held out my warm tea and snacks, her gaze never shifted from me, making me misbehave.
"Thank you brother." said I and Niar together, I dare not look long at his sharp eyes, the look of those eyes like arrows that can shoot down my heart.
For a moment I was lulled by her, imagining her face and smile.
It feels good to be able to climb with the people we love so much.
"Niar, I picked Mayang yes.
Take good care of her as long as I can't be with her for a moment." her words made me blush in shame, I felt a warm and flowery feeling running through this heart.
My face is red like a boiled crab.
Shameful but happy, the words made me seem to fly into space, through the seventh sky.
I feel like the most perfect woman on earth.
But there were some seniors and also new members of HIMAPALA who were there.
They listen to all Radhit's words.
Soon, we gathered and ate our dinner.
Despite the alakadarnya cuisine, that night for us seemed to eat a five-star dish.
It was delicious, that night the atmosphere of the sky was bright with stars and the moon, visible light bias in Ranu lake like a shiny expanse of jewels.
It was time for us to take a break, because at midnight we were going to climb.
It takes energy to get to the top of Mahameru.
May the climb be successful and always in the protection of the Creator.
It had been imagined by me to see the sun rise above the peak of Mahameru.
How grateful I am to be able to witness the beauty and greatness of the Divine.
Time rolled, for a moment we fell asleep in the night goddess's cradle.
In each of our dreams.
Until the alarm rings.
At exactly 00:00 Wib, we rushed to clear things up.
Prepare to continue the climb.
This time we will pass the climb of love towards kalimati to continue towards the peak of Mahameru.
Then I heard one of my senior brothers say," Mayang if the road on the ramp love later, if you are in front and Radhit behind you, you do not look back. No match for Radhit!"
I don't know what he meant, I don't know.
Can only shake and smile while turning his brain to digest his words earlier.
Understand that I am new at this.
This is my first ascent, and I still don't know the ins and outs of Mount Semeru.
I can only rely on Brother Radhit, Niar and the other seniors.
But in my heart I wish it was just a joke.
And I wish my soul mate was Radhit's brother.

*Actually what is the true story of the myth that became the legend of the climber's love climb on Mount Semeru?
*And how the love story of Mayang and Radhit when passing through the climbs of love?
*Who were they at the top of Mahameru on the day of Indonesian independence on August 17, 2004?
Look forward to the next story only in "THE END OF THE CLIMBER'S LOVE STORY" part 23. Thanks 🙏🤗
