Love Island

Love Island
Chapter 5. The Unnamed Island.


The sound of a loud bang again sounded deafening. The men dressed in all black who lined up neatly in front of their leader, could only be frightened to find the fate of one of their comrades lying helplessly on the floor with darraah that welled around his body.


They all gathered together, begging the boss for forgiveness so as not to suffer a similar fate.


"We're going to go to great lengths to find the girl, Mr. Alexander!" said one of the men firmly, but while bowing his head.


The blue-eyed man scorned cynically then slapped hard at the man who had just opened his voice. "Getting a girl snot you guys ain't being smitten! Do you all want me to alienate like that guy, huh!"


They shake their heads.


Alex stomps his feet and slams the golf stick he holds onto the floor. "Get all of you out, GET OUT!" loud shouting.


Without a second thought, Alex's men disbanded. Not to forget they also carried one of the colleagues who looked dying there.


Alex sits himself in a chair. Again he had to receive some annoying news about the girl. The girl from the Kenric family whom he had hated for a long time.


Alex was not out of thought, the girl was able to hide well all this time. Lilyana lives in the residence of a retired army colonel. It was only fitting that they could not detect its existence. However, the girl had escaped right before they came. As a result, Lilyana can no longer take refuge and she believes it will be easier to catch him.


...**********...


Anna could only lament Lilyana's departure by sitting on the bed the girl had been in. He does not care about his house which is now in a mess, because his mind is only on Lilyana.


At exactly six o'clock in the morning they both arrived back home after being reported that there had been a forced break-in by mysterious intruders. Luckily the neighbors do not know if Lilyana actually lives in the house alone, so Leo can easily make a story that Lilyana does not come back home with them for security.


Leo looked at his wife with concern, then approached her. "Lilyana left this for us" said the man, handing over a crumpled piece of paper to his wife.


With trembling hands, Anna opened the note.


'Uncle, Aunty, thank you for all the good you have given me all this time. I honestly feel really happy here, but I can't keep hanging on to you guys. So I decided to leave. This is a good time.


Sorry if during my stay here, I've been a hassle. I hope we can meet again someday.


I'm returning this satellite phone.


Greetings, Lilyana!'


Anna's cry broke out after reading the short note Lilyana had written. Leo hugged his wife tightly to calm her down.


"It's gonna be okay out there, right?" ask Anna lirih.


Leo nodded steadily. "definitely. Lilyana is a strong girl, and I'm sure of her ability to get through all this!"


Anna exhaled for her crying to stop. In his heart he prayed for the safety of the young girl they had just met.


...**********...


Lilyana thanked him and continued on her way again until she finally found a large road with a barn of wheat surrounding her. Walking a little he found the stop obsolete, but still actively operating.


A bus arrived ten minutes later. Lilyana paid the bus fare using the cash she had. The girl did not have to worry about her appearance, because she used a mask and a hat, as well as a thick jacket to wrap her tiny body.


Lilyana who does not have a destination, deliberately took the bus from one stop to another until arriving at a beachside market crowded by visitors. He intended to fill his stomach first in that place.


The goddess of fortune seems to be with Lilyana. because the food merchant he stopped by was talking to someone about the schedule of crossing to a small island, not named, that only opens the route to it once every month.


"I'm sorry if I interrupted. What time is it, sir, Mom?" ask Lilyana suddenly.


The two men turned to Lilyana. "Maybe in half an hour. Are you going there, son?" The man opened his voice first.


Lilyana nodded her head. He acted as if he knew about the island.


"It's worth it to look like a backpacker. Seems like you're having an adventure, huh?" This time it was the merchant who attacked.


Lilyana smiled little. Here he had nothing to worry about his face being seen. "I want to visit relatives there" he replied.


"Ah, so it seems. Your family must be young. Understandably most of the island's inhabitants are on average under 45 years."


Lilyana just nodded. After finishing his meal, he went to the place where the ship to the unnamed island arrived.


It did not take long for the ship called Monster-land to finally arrive. The boat was a motorboat owned by local residents. His appearance looked quite old and alarming. However, Lilyana could not back down. The remote island was the only suitable hiding place for him.


"Nameless island, come in here!" shouted a man standing at the end of the ship as he waved his hand.


Dozens of mostly men began to enter the ship. Lilyana's coming in there.


"Hey, I just saw you!" point the man towards Lilyana.


Lilyana gulped her saliva nervously. "Yes, I'm a wanderer from far away." The answer.


The man put his cigarette in his mouth and went to his waist. He examined Lilyana's appearance from top to bottom. "one hundred and fifty dollars for nomads!" said later.


Lilyana silently exhaled her breath. He thought the man recognized his disguise.


"okay!" Although the cost is very expensive, Lilyana still paid it without protest.


The man happily accepted the money from Lilyana, before finally allowing the girl to enter.


"Enjoy this journey. It took three hours to get there, so relax, "he said kindly.


Lilyana just nodded her head and began to blend in with the other passengers.
