Meira
CHAPTERS. 34

It was getting darker and there was no light that could guide its way, only a slight moonlight bias was covered with so many towering trees that the girl could not continue her small steps anymore, he could only sit under the trees and he didn't know what kind of place he was in.

"Sister Al Al where, please help Meira..." Meira kept crying in fear, how not is she now in the dark forest, she said, alone with the air getting colder reaching him and the sounds of the sounds of the night animals in the forest especially at night the sound is increasingly clear. Meira continued to lay her head between her knees to overcome her fear even the sound of tree branches falling down was horrible, there were many dangers that lay in this forest like snakes, crocodiles, crocodiles, even a ghost could be next to her right now, that was Meira's thinking. His brain was filled with terrifying shadows.

"Hiks... Hix.. Meira's scared."

"Where is Al Al?" her tears kept flowing with all the fear she had right now.

Aldo stepped slowly down the street in the dark of night directing the flashlight from his phone despite limited lighting he did not want to give up, Meira needed it at this time. Alando did not care how dangerous this path he was searching for that he remembered this path that he had not passed since. Every time he steps a few minutes he will leave a sign even though it is not too visible because it is dark but Alando is very careful and his memory does not need to be questioned again for that one, he said, Alando is a smart student and even a genius.

"MAYIRA...!" his screams were tight as well as sharpening his hearing.

Alando hopes Meira can hear his loud scream, maybe even the creatures that are there are both real creatures or unreal creatures. They may also be surprised to hear the screams. Had Meira been around, Alando was sure Meira would have shouted her name back. But unfortunately the result is the same no sound Meira heard. Now he had even missed the sweet girl so much, no matter if later Meira will continue to talk or sing a song not clear he will still try to be patient and prepare his ears until the heat is important Meira can return near him again with all manner of behavior his cherry and innocent nature that has become the hallmark of a Meira.

All sorts of obstacles he passed through. The road is getting harder, the grass is thorny and the animals are either waving what he might have passed without caring he will be injured even now his legs have started to hurt and his body needs rest. Alando felt very frustrated at this time even several times he kept ruffling his hair until it felt like he wanted to scream spilling all his despair.

"Hiks... Hikss.." the sound of a woman's cry that was slightly muffled made Alando's heart immediately beat fast even his breath began to increase, his blood seemed to flow rapidly. In this dark forest there are only two possibilities, the first possibility was the sound of Meira crying or it could be another girl who was also lost and the second possibility was the cry of a creature she did not want to call, and of course Alando chose the first possibility. He was not a timid Christ and immediately ran away without finding out the source of the voice.

"Kreess.". "slowly Alando stepped closer to the sound of the woman's cry and the closer she got, the clearer the sound of the cry was that Alando was more convinced that it was Meira's cry, and the more she felt, the girl who had made him very worried.

"Hiks... Hicks..."

"MEIRA ARE YOU HERE?" Shouted Alando, he could currently only rely on his instincts instead of his eyesight because the light from his phone did not allow him to see the place as a whole.

"MAYIRA...!" call back.

Meira who from earlier continued to cry in fear with a trembling body so that she could only lay her face on her knees and raised her face when she heard the screams of her brother Al who kept calling his name.

"Sister Al Al... ?" instantly her cries began to subside and her eyes began to glance around her.

"Sister Al Al Meira is here" he replied hoarsely, but when he saw the light of the lamp from Alando's phone, although Meira herself did not clearly see the face of her brother Al Al but she was sure it was her voice, Meira immediately got up and headed towards the direction the light was in. Meira ran with her legs still trembling she was afraid her Al-Kak would not find her if she just stayed there.

"Sister Al Al Meira is afraid, don't stay Meira hiks..." Quick. Meira hugged Alando's body tightly as if she was very afraid to lose. Even Alando was shocked and almost stricken when Meira suddenly lunged at his body and hugged him tightly lucky Alando could quickly balance his body until they did not fall together.

Zaden, Kenny, Steven and Christ along with a group of reinforcements to the place where Alando had been and waiting for them, but when he was there Alando was no more.

"Basic Alando! I should have known he wouldn't want to just wait here without doing something." Zaden, upset, he forgot what kind of nature Alando is and in fact he's not a person of patience.

Sometimes Alando did not think carefully about the problem and immediately acted. But foolishly Zaden ignored him just like that, he was just afraid that Alando would hurt himself on the way, without any light accompanying him where he could step without harming himself. Not that Meira met and now Alando also disappeared, Zaden and his three friends are also frustrated if this is the case.

"Yes, we've been looking for them, but if we don't meet tonight we have to continue tomorrow" said Zaden, lucky some people, especially men who are also camping in the same place with them want to help find.

"OK...!" say them. The search continues, along the road that would have been intended Alando, because it is only the direction there that they have not been traced since this afternoon. With makeshift equipment and the occasional chanting of their names, Zaden hopes that soon he can find Meira and Alando. Who knows if there are things out there that could endanger both of them.

Alando was so grateful that he was finally able to find Meira whole without the slightest bit of injury. Now all she wanted to do was hug her tightly permeating Meira's already safe existence in her arms. Alando realized Meira was currently very frightened even her body felt a little trembling.

"I've been here and I won't leave you." said Alando gently trying to calm Meira's cries.

He doesn't care that now he has to be away from the tent even if he is lost at the moment, Alando feels that it is not a problem for him because now he has found Meira, someone who means a lot to him. Let Alando look for a way out tomorrow morning, after all he has made some traces of signs whichever way he has passed.

Maybe when dark like this will not be seen because he will rest his body tonight here with Meira only tomorrow morning when the bright light starts to penetrate this forest he will start to move. Alando only hopes his friends can find them both in case he finds it hard to find his way back.

"Sister Al Al brought Meira home, Meira was scared here." Meira still hugged Alando tightly afraid to look around her.

"We can't go back tonight Meira, the road is very dark so we can both get lost further, besides my phone battery is also a little more willing to run out" explained Aldo slowly.

"Can't we go home?" meira asked who started to stop crying but still buried her face in Alando's chest and was still in her warm embrace.

"Yes, we are forced to sleep here tonight first, tomorrow we will find our way home" he replied and brought Meira to sit under a tree that felt safe for them to sit in.

Honestly, at the moment he is very tired, Alando really needs a rest. Moreover, the air is also increasingly cold lucky he still uses his jacket last day so Meira who also uses a hoodie Alando greatness that he gave that night because Meira jacket even to this day has not been he found out, I don't know where Meira put it.

"But Meira's still scared." Meira, honestly, anyone would be afraid to be in such a dark place not only Meira even Alando also felt a little fear but was it not human but he was trying to fight his fear to calm Meira.

"It's okay, I'm here. Go to bed and close your eyes and keep reading all the prayers you can." tell Alando that Meira can dispel her fears, Alando leads him and breaks Meira's head, giving her the protection and security she can provide. While he himself leaned his back and his head to the towering tree, it feels tiring even his body is now really crumbling because all day this time he spent exploring the forest from looking for good photos to looking for the lost Meira until this is where he ends. But all his worries were immediately treated because Meira was now in his lap sleeping comfortably. Alando only hoped that the night would quickly pass by changing the day.

While Zaden and his three friends are forced to stop halfway because it is impossible for them to continue the search again because it could endanger them as well, they must now go back to their tents again and continue the search tomorrow, and if tomorrow they still do not meet then they will report to the authorities.
