Melody's side.
Melody resumed her journey even though she had to endure the pain of falling and sprains. Truly, the blisters on his knees were very painful. He grimaced with his pain.
Tranquility, pain, and fear.
"So I took a road like this, right?" He tried to remember the time on the bus.
The sound of a wolf's roar greatly disturbed him. Really very scary. Melody even thought that she would be eaten by a wolf because of the wound on her leg. Didn't blood invite beasts?
Come on, Melody knows it's from the shark eating people movie. Yeah, the fear is becoming.
"Are they gonna find me and eat me? Oh my God, Yudha. You're where? Hix.. Why don't you go help me?"
.

Alvin pedals his fast bike ontel. Fast, fast, and very fast. The downhill road this time is much lighter than the uphill earlier. It doesn't matter if he has to fall though. He just wants to find Melody.
"Melody, you better be okay! I'm worried about you." Alvin muttered along the way looking for Melody.
.
.
.
After 15 minutes of cycling. Alvin finally saw a misty whistle of shadows from a distance. He accelerates the pedal pedal of his bike.
"Melody." Call Alvin. He was breathing hard because he was tired. Alvin even let his bike crash just like that.
Melody looked over at her name call. Alvin stood in front of him. Without a second thought he rushed over and immediately hugged Alvin very tightly, very tightly! So tight. He was crying too. Soreness and pain in his legs do not feel so happy to meet Alvin, safer because it feels saved?
Alvin just stroked Melody's hair and tried to calm her down. Letting Melody cry to reduce her fear.
Melody looks really bad right now. This must have been very difficult and so frightening for Melody. His crying voice was like that. Breathable and without sound. Crying without a sound that makes the chest tight.
"Sttt, it's okay, I'm here."
Alvin.
Melody still hugged Alvin very tightly.
"I don't think there will be anyone looking for me. I-I thought, you were a wolf yes-who came earlier. I-Kena-pa, you've been a while.. I-I-I'm so scared."
Melody said.
The fear of being alone in a dark place is a nightmare that never ends.
"Sorry, don't talk anymore, calm down!"
Melody nodded in Alvin's embrace. Alvin returned the trembling embrace of Melody. He hugged her too tightly. I feel reluctant to let go.
Like before, when together.
The good times, it feels like not long ago. Melody's body felt warm, a smell she had always longed for. Unknowingly he kissed Melody's head slowly.
He released Melody's body, he looked at Melody and wiped her tears. Those clear eyes were reddened and full of tears. The fear was clearly drawn on Melody's face. The face he so misses. His smile, his laughter, his chatter, everything. Melody, just remembering that name alone made it difficult for her to sleep.
Sure enough, he tried as hard as he could. The art he believed in. In fact, he cannot. It feels very difficult.
A woman named Melody.
Undeniably.
The woman of spring.
Still reigning in his heart.

"Alvin-sen-senpai?"
Alvin awoke from his daydream. Melody stopped crying. That nice. He's relieved. Finally he took off his jacket and put it on Melody.
Melody is piggybacking with the handle of Alvin's shirt.
Alvin concluded a smile. If he is allowed to ask for more, then he does not want time to pass quickly.
In fact. He had already sent Yudha a message if he had found Melody. And he also knew for sure that Yudha would welcome him, not wait like a king in a hotel room.
There is another side that wants it that way.
The other side believes that Yudha must be worried about Melody, as a husband.
As a husband, right?
.
.
.
Justright. All as Alvin had expected.
Melody and Alvin meet with Yudha after pedaling a bicycle not so long ago. Two-thirds of the way to the hotel.
Alvin flicked his bike. He looked at Yudha who looked very worried even though the stiff man tried to hide it.
Yudha walked over, approaching Melody who was still sitting on the bicycle bonnet.
Melody lowered her head. Indeed, he was sure that Yudha would scold him.
"Melody.." Yudha's call sounded horror in Melody's ears. He tightened his grip on Alvin's shirt.
The sound of a wolf roar was indeed frightening, but Yudha's voice felt even more frightening, like being near a tiger.
Melody got off Alvin's bike very carefully, enduring the pain in her leg. "Ahh. sa-it hurts a lot."
Yudha who wanted to get angry changed her face. He slapped Melody on the shoulder, helping Melody stand up properly. He looked at Melody's feet. Seen some blood dried up there. Yudha squatted down to check the wound.
Gaped.
It must be very painful, especially in the place of folds like knees.
Yudha looked at Melody from below. Messy hair, a rundown face, tears, sweat, holding back pain. Oh come on, it's not time for him to get angry, is it? Then he sighed.
"Get it!"
"Eh?"
Yudha turned around, she showed her back.
"Well, I'll carry you!"
"But I'm heavy.." Melody said carefully.
"Stop a lot of excuses if you don't want to aggravate your injuries!"
"Go-gomen." He obeyed and Yudhad carried him.
Before walking a little far. Yudha stopped her steps. Too relieved to see Melody back, he almost forgets Alvin who found Melody.
"Alvin, thanks for bringing it in."
Alvin who had just seen it as if not considered just trying to smile.
"It doesn't matter, Yudha. Are you sure you're gonna carry her up to the hotel? Almost two kilos a meter more like it. You want to wear my bike? I can walk on my own."
Alvin said with a smile.
"No, Alvin. I'll just carry it. You go home first."
Alvin looked at Yudha's serious face. He also agreed. "I'll get Nao or Shuhei to pick you up and Melody by car."
"Hn, arigatou."
Honestly, Melody wants to say that Yudha is very bad at riding a bike. He also wanted to laugh at the storm knowing that Yudha had hit the chickens in front of his house. But his intention he undoes, his fatigue is too controlling. Her joke mood had already vanished by this time.
Luckily Yudha refused Alvin's offer of bicycles, if accepted, there they would both fall together. Yudha will be hurt and the wound on her knee will get worse.
Walking with Yudha is the best option. After all, Nao will definitely pick them up soon. For now, being alone with Yudha is the best option.
