Forever Young's
CHAPTER XXVII Interference on Toll Roads

On a clear Sunday morning. Nuna had prepared with a short-sleeved white T-shirt and her long jeans. She pinched her hair in the style of a ponytail. Nuna also carried a small backpack containing her swimsuit because Eagle said in a class chat group yesterday that today they will do watersports.

Not long ago the XI MIA I students came one by one gathered in the hotel lobby.

"Okay gaes, we go to Tanjung Benoa now, no one forgets the swimsuit" said Elang.

"Ready Mr. Chairman."

"Oh yeah gaes, forgot me. I want to encourage you to ride on the highway that is above the sea, so today we will ride a motorcycle. Any boy can't take a bike?" asked the Eagle while looking at his friends.

No one raised their hands.

"Okay, we got 16 guys, 15 girls. I bring my own motor haha, you guys in for ya, the bonceng guys are girls," said Elang gave instructions.

"Okay, Lang. Btw is free to choose the motor?"

The eagle nodded, "Yok chosen - chosen."

Rigel automatically hints at Nuna to follow him. Rigel chose a sport bike bright red like the color of his hair.

Nuna looked at the design of the motor elaborately. How do I get on it? He never got on a bike. Nuna then noticed her classmate who climbed up easily.

Rigel knows Nuna's confusion. "Now your helmet."

Nuna who was still confused just held the helmet in her hand.

The corner of Rigel's lips curved upwards. He took the helmet back. Rigel looked at Nuna's hair in the high pigtails and thought that if she wore a helmet, Nuna would feel dizzy. So Rigel pulled Nuna's hairband and put her helmet on.

Clik. Nuna's helmet has been locked.

Nuna regained her senses and saw Rigel's hand on her chin. "I've never been on a bike" he said honestly.

Rigel laughed and he got on his bike, "Here I hold your hand, your other hand hold my shoulder to make it up."

Nuna hesitates - hesitates to hold Rigel's hand and press Rigel's left shoulder to climb onto the bike. He finally managed to sit behind Rigel.

"Lo can get in your hands here make a handle." Rigel pointed at both of his leather jacket pockets. "Hugging my stomach doesn't hold me either."

"I'm going to get in the car" said Nuna who was going down.

But Rigel was faster in moving, he had turned on the motor and shouted at the Eagle, "Gue first."

The eagle looked frantically at Rigel who had darted away, "Woi lo has never been to Bali, how know the way!"

Rigel certainly didn't hear it.

"Pray that he may not stray" said Bimo.

"Haha." Joshua laughed loudly. "Hopefully haha, let's go!"

The eagle breathed a long breath. "OK gaes is ready, right?"

"Udah, Lang."

"Yuk!'

"Kuy Lang's been in the afternoon."

"It's still morning oe."

"OK, relax. I lead the way, you should follow me yes, do not let anyone miss," said Elang then climbed on his bike and went to the Mandala Toll.

On the other hand, Rigel stopped his motorbike on the roadside. When leaving earlier, Rigel asked Nuna to direct it through google maps. But Rigel discovers that they have passed the same path.

Rigel finally stopped and memorized the route independently. He wondered why most women can not read google maps? Rigel also remembers when his mother also read maps incorrectly.

"I'm sorry I haven't learned it yet" Nuna said. Nuna did not think reading the roadmap turned out to require good skills.

"No papa, I've already memorized the way," said Rigel then returned Nuna's phone.

Rigel turns the motor back on and drives in the right direction. Nuna immediately put her hand into Rigel's jacket pocket to keep it from slipping back.

Nuna felt the wind blowing forcefully at her. He looked to his left and saw the sea and could smell the scent of the sea. Nuna recalled the information she got from the internet.

Mandala Toll is the first sea toll that has a special motor vehicle line connecting Ngurah Rai, Nusa Dua and Tanjung Benoa. This toll road has a length of 12.7 km.

Rigel also drives while enjoying the view, but while checking the rearview motor, he sees Felix piggybacking Mark behind him. Since when did they follow him?

Rigel stared warily at them. He was shocked when Mark took out a baseball bat and smirked at him.

"Nuna, hold on tight!" rigel's shout makes Nuna reflex embrace him because Rigel's speed increases to touch the maximum speed limit on the highway.

Nuna observes Rigel glancing at the rearview motor. He twisted his neck and found the driver behind them trying to swing a baseball bat.

Nuna turned her face back to stare at the long highway. He asked - asked, why does this teenager in front of him have so many enemies? And why was he involved in it too?

"Come, Felix, increase your speed" said Mark who was upset.

"Ready, Boss." Felix tries to overtake Rigel but Rigel reliably gets in his way.

Mark sees that Felix cannot surpass Rigel and changes his target to Nuna. "Near."

Nuna felt danger from behind, she turned her head and found the end of the baseball bat was about to hit her back. Even if he wears a backpack, it will still hurt if hit with a hard object.

In this sitting position, Nuna knew she was at great disadvantage because she could not move freely. So quickly, Nuna bent her elbow up and her hand grabbed the baseball bat that was about to land on her back.

Mark was surprised the girl could catch his baseball without looking. His intuition is really great. Mark tried to pull his gun back but Nuna would not let go.

With all her might, Nuna pulled the stick out of Mark's hand. Mark almost fell off the bike so inevitably he gave up his baseball bat.

Rigel who glanced at this scene from the rearview motor was quite shocked by Nuna's action, but he was relieved Nuna was not hurt.

Rigel's relaxed heart turns tense again, as Mark pulls out a toy gun. He knew there were nails in it. This crazy guy!

Mark grinned and pointed the muzzle of the gun at Rigel's motorcycle tyre which of course at this speed failed. Mark did not give up and kept shooting.

Nuna also thought that the teenage boy was crazy! First he used a baseball bat and now he's after this motorcycle tire. Nuna has decided to help Rigel for his safety as well.

Nuna held the baseball bat in her right hand and swung it towards Felix.

The unprepared Felix became unsteady and they almost fell down.

"The real monkey" cried Mark.

"Sorry, Boss." Felix tried to balance his bike. But Nuna certainly did not give him a chance.

Under the threat of the baseball bat, Felix finally slowed down the speed of his motorbike and kept his distance with Rigel motorbike.

Rigel took advantage of the opportunity to widen the distance between them and immediately exit the toll road. He drives through the streets until Mark and Felix can't catch up.
