Last God
Back to Halimun Hill

Kemala looked anxious, occasionally staring at Bondan and staring at a distant hill in the North.

"Bondan, I want to show you something" Kemala said as he grabbed Bondan's shoulder. Bondan who was enthusiastic to help the excavation was distracted. Now he looked at Kemala with a questionable look.

"Come, follow me" Kemala asked. Bondan just nodded and paid his respects to the diggers.

"Sir, I live first. Be careful, do not let the artifact get scratched.

"OK," replied a worker without looking. Bondan got up and followed Kemala.

"There on the highest hill there is something I want to show you. But, is there an iron bird you can ride for us to get there?" kemala. Bondan remembers something, and hurriedly approaches Abe.

Not long after, Bondan and Kemala 'already on the air'

The two floated in a jet jacket that Abe lent him.

It could be that Kemala hugged Bondan and took him flying or jumping to that place. But I think it'll drain the energy. The hill he was referring to was far away. It's a dozen kilo meters.

Bondan really enjoyed the trip, especially now Kemala began to hold his hand.

Bondan feels like a hotshot or Gatotkaca on an air patrol. The tops of trees are lush green, river grooves with black rocks and so on. What a very expensive sight even priceless.

The place in question Kemala is the top of the hill where the grave of Raiman is located.

Both have arrived in front of the cave. The jet jackets they've been stripped off.

"It was there that he died. He took his life in my arms. Every time I come here, it feels like it was just yesterday. The fishy smell of his blood re-smelled, the horror of the natural disaster was again felt. And, and time seems to stop." For a moment Kemala swallowed bitter saliva. "Every dry season I come here. I pray, I clean the mouth of this cave from the bush, I plant the flowers. Look, all these ornamental plants I plant," said Kemala while circulating his gaze around the mouth of the cave filled with flower plants.

He told me a lot about Raiman. But what I want to say the most is,

"His face, his attitude and his speech. It's like you."

"It is only the other day that you question whether the reincarnation problem exists or not" Bondan said.

"Perhaps, I am the answer to your prayer."

"I never prayed for Raiman to live again. Quite the contrary, I wish I could die and be buried here. Next to his grave."

"Or, without you knowing, Raiman prays, that he may be born again and meet you in the future. It could be that I am a reborn Raiman even without any memory of his past."

Hearing that Kemala slowly turned around and looked at Bondan.

"Sorry, I know, maybe you're offended. Because I have likened you to someone else. It's something not good."

"ah! No-no. I feel flattered. I'm the one you've never equated with someone you've remembered so much. It's amazing, for thousands of years, you remember it, you don't forget it. But," until there, Bondan stopped his speech. As if there was something difficult for him to express.

"But it would be nice, we remember him as a hero and we try to start a new life. It's me, I've decided here to accompany you to eternal life. Me, I'm not asking you to forget it. But, mmm... Do you understand what I mean?"

"Dad, I get it. Forgive me," said Kemala as he slowly approached Bondan. Both are hugging.

"If you can't accept me as me, and you're more comfortable thinking I'm Raiman's incarnation. That doesn't matter to me."

"I'm sorry, I'll try starting this all over again. I'm sorry," said Kemala so friendly in Bondan's ears. The embrace of both is getting tighter.

"Mount, Gugun. You can't imagine, the two of them are doing it now?" abe asked Gugun who was feeding. Abe is wounded and under Gugun's watch. Even when it was time to eat, Gugun always took the time to feed and take care of his best friend. This is what friends are for.

"You want to die, you still think that's okay? Pray a lot, let the spit heal and later if you're healed, I promise. The cave will help you find the girl.

"So when you weren't around, I signed the jet jacket for both of them. I'm just gonna imagine they're on"

"Udah-ah ah! Positive thinking is hard!" cut Gugun while tiptoeing away. The cave is also laper, it eats chicks."
