River Suburbs Village
On the way

The raft starts at the paddle by Sutikno and Subhan sits quietly on the raft. Sutikno's red shirt remained attached to Sutikno's body. Subhan's injured hand was apparently dry so Subhan began to open the torn Sutikno shirt in his hand slowly.

"Sutikno, the wound on my hand is dry" Look" Subhan said, revealing his hand to Sutikno

"Oh yes, my clothes tear fasten on our raft" At any time we need it" Sutikno told Subhan.

"Yes, fine then" Subhan replied.

After completing his activities, the Rakit carrying Sutikno and Subhan sailed so fast. Until their raft reached a dark alley in the middle of the river. The hallway was very narrow and only enough for one boat. Many boats in front of them were waiting in line.

"Sutikno, are we almost there?" ask Subhan curiously

"Yes, we have to pass through the hall first, after we pass through the hallway, we will arrive at the next village" Sutikno replied to Subhan.

"Oh yeah, come on" We can't give up" It looks like to get through this hall we have to scramble" Subhan said as he looked at the many boats that also accommodate many people.

Subhan saw one by one the people who sailed in their boat. Unfortunately, no one was in touch at all. They were all just silent and focused on entering that narrow passageway

"Well, why does the situation seem to be quiet?" no one greeted me when our position was close together" said Subhan while trying to call the person beside him.

"Sir, are you going to enter that hallway?" What village?" tanya Subhan tried to ask the figure of the father half old who was holding his son

The old man did not look at Subhan at all. It was as if Subhan had never been by their side.

"Sutikno, do you see any discrepancies?" subhan asked Sutikno

"What's Subhan's awkwardness?" tanya Sutikno short

"Look at the people around us "They don't answer my questions" They don't seem to see me" Subhan asked Sutikno

Hearing his best friend ask, Sutikno replied

"Subhan, let them be like that" All we want is for us to quickly get to the edge" Your grandfather and grandmother must have been waiting for our arrival" Somehow long we left the village" If according to my calculations, we're more than a day and a night away from them" They must be anxious" Sutikno told Subhan.

"Yes right" Trus what should I do?" subhan asked with a sad look on his face

"Better, you pray for them to be happy" Pray to God" Sutikno told Subhan.

"Oh, yes, as long as I was in the village, I never prayed anything" Grandpa and grandma never taught me how to pray" Subhan replied briefly

Subhan finally prayed for his grandparents, and the prayer made Subhan's heart calm.

Meanwhile, Sutikno looked a little sad to see Subhan praying. He seemed to be waiting for something but could not reveal it.

Finished praying, Subhan's raft slid into the dark alley. Inside the hall was very dark, even Subhan did not see Sutikno's face but Subhan could still hear his voice
