Mount Rinjani has an altitude of 3,726 masl and entered into one of the highest mountains in Indonesia. During the day, the temperature at the peak of Rinjani can reach 4°C and if at night the temperature drops to -5°C. With such low temperatures, mountain climbers often experience Hypothermia which makes the body very cold.
Angga feels like he wants to go crazy because he has not been able to find Karin but Dio is also lost somewhere. The team that was brought was also quite difficult because it was night and the fog was very thick. Plus their cold bodies made them decide to stop the search because of fatigue and impossible terrain.
"May they still survive" Angga's inner self with a feeling of unworthiness.
On the other hand, Dio felt that someone was touching his cheek gently. He opened his eyes and was a little shocked when he saw Karin who was smiling sweetly at him. Dio straightened his body.
"Today" he said it was nice to see the woman.
But Dio was astonished that since Karin had not said anything to him, the woman simply smiled and looked at him. Dio wanted to directly hug her but he was shocked when suddenly Karin was not in front of him.
"Sarin! Karim!" his words rose from his seat and searched for Karin.
"Sarin! Don't go Karin!" he screamed like crazy for not being able to find Karin.
"Sarin!" Shouted Dio immediately woke up from his sleep and was shocked when he realized a new dream in his realm.
Dio adjusted his suddenly congested breath, He stared at his already dark surroundings. His body was shivering from the chill. Dio immediately looked for his phone to activate the flashlight in order to light his way. He has to find Karin any way.
"Where are you, baby" her mind is upset. On a cold night like this, it was impossible for anyone to survive because he himself was so cold.
But Dio did not give up, he again walked through the dark forest with the light of his flashlight. Against the coldness that gnawed at his body. He sharpens his vision hoping to find Karin.
Dio fell a few times but he got up again, he did not want to stop until he found Karin.
"Dio.." he was like hearing the voice of a gentle whisper in the cold gusts of wind from his right.
Somehow his instincts told him that Karin was there, he immediately sped his way up, removing the leaves that were blocking him. He continued to walk tirelessly until he saw the body of a man lying between two trees flanking the body.
"Sarin!" He was shocked but also happy to find the woman.
Dio immediately came to the figure and saw that it was indeed Karin who was still unconscious. Dio immediately pulled Karin's body from the tree clasp.
"Sarin! Wake up Darling" he said patting Karin's cold cheeks, as cold as freezing.
"Sarin!" he said again but there was no response to make Dio's cry break.
Dio tightly hugged Karin's body which was already like a corpse. Stiff and very cold. "Wake up!!!! I'm coming for you, Wake Rin" Dio said smirking Karin's face hoping she would wake up.
"Wake Rin! I'm sorry" he said again increasingly not control his roaring and stifling crying voice. His face was already wet due to his tears that kept flowing.
"Honey....Wake up." he said again in a soft voice. He continued to cry in despair because Karin was still unconscious.
Karin opened her eyes slowly, her face already wet from Dio's tears. His hands slowly stretched out to be able to touch his male face.
"D.i.o" he said very weak.
Dio raised his face when he heard Karin's voice. She smiles but also cries. "Today, you're awake.....Sorry me....I'm sorry." she hugged Karin tightly and kissed her many times.
"Hold on dear." said Dio, hugging her, hoping to give Karin warmth.
Karin shook her head, she couldn't stand it. His arm also seemed to be injured quite badly making him unable to hold it anymore.
"I'm sorry.." said Karin just wanted to give up.
"Don't.don't apologize...You're not wrong anything...Hold on for me Karin... I won't let you go" Dio said in a loud voice, knowing that Karin was already very cold.
With power left, Dio immediately carried Karin's body and took her away to find a place that Dio thought could be used to reduce this cold. When looking for Karin earlier, he had seen there was a cave large enough, he immediately brought Karin there.
Dio laid Karin down slowly, he then looked for a wooden twig to make this fire camp that would help warm their bodies later. Dio was relieved because in his jacket pocket there was a match of his.
After the campfire lit, Dio could clearly see Karin's condition which turned out to be quite badly injured.
"Yet....." Dio immediately opened his scarf and tied it to Karin's injured arm.
Karin opened her eyes again, she looked at Dio with a bad feeling because she could finally look back at that face.
"Dio.." said Karin spread her hand which was immediately greeted by Dio.
"I'm sorry.." said Dio again crying because he could see Karin open her eyes. He hugged Karin tightly like he hadn't met for 1,000 years. I think Dio wanted to die because he couldn't find Karin.
"Don't cry" said Karin stroking Dio's tears slowly.
"It's a happy cry" Dio took Karin's hand and kissed her feelingly.
"I'm sorry" said Karin.
"Hey, you're not wrong, why apologize. I should be the one apologizing for not being able to take care of you. I'm sorry" Dio said to help Karin who wanted to sit down.
Karin was silent and re-embraced Dio's body which also hugged him no less tightly.
"You know, I'm so scared of losing you. I'm begging...Don't go any more Karin" said Dio, staring at Karin softly but seriously.
"But you----" Karin stopped her speech because Dio kissed her lips gently.
"Please promise not to walk away from me, we'll have to face this together. Karin, I love you so much. You believe that, don't you?" said Dio looking straight at Karin's eyes that were twitching at him.
"Yes." said Karin. In fact, no matter how hard he tried to resist, he still did not bjsa. It would only hurt himself and Dio. When he was in between life and death, the thing he wanted the most was just to go back to this man.
Dio smiled in relief, he tightened his embrace to Karin's body.
"From now on, don't think of your fools leaving me. As far and as hard as you want to run away from me. I'll look for you everywhere 'cause you've been tied to me your whole life. You will forever be mine, Karin" Dio said so seriously. He had promised in his heart that he would not let go of Karin no matter what.
Happy Reading's.
