River Suburbs Village

River Suburbs Village
A loud bang


Subhan and his grandmother and grandfather were inside the house. Dark atmosphere enveloped the house. Similarly, the neighbors who were next to Subhan's grandmother's house.


There was no sound but silence. Before entering the room, Subhan's grandmother told him to cover his ears.


Subhan obeyed what his grandmother said. Since childhood, Subhan never resisted or defied his grandmother's orders.


Subhan is a submissive child. Until one day, without realizing it by Subhan, a very loud bang appeared.


"Outside. " many times and it makes Subhan's ears almost dislodged.


Fortunately, Subhan had covered his ears, so that the loud bang did not make his ears noisy.


Sayup-sayup heard the panic of the people around the house where he lived.


"Awas, the hot cloud will be heading to the village"


"Better, we hide in each other's houses"


"We ran for free because we had to go through the river first" said the voice of a resident outside the house whose voice reached Subhan's ear.


"Hem, is this why I can't go through the river at all?" subhan murmured in the heart.


With the ban by the villagers to pass the river, Subhan is increasingly curious about what is happening outside his village.


"It seems, I have to leave secretly from this village" Subhan murmured inwardly.


"Before I leave here, it would be nice to prepare the trip later" Subhan murmured


Finally, Subhan was intent on preparing little by little the provisions he would bring to cross the river.


A loud bang was no longer heard in his ears. Signs that there is no more danger threatening him.


Feeling safe, Subhan came out of his room and called his grandparents.


"Grandfather"


"grandmother"


"Where are you?" call Subhan to his grandparents.


It looks like his grandparents were crushed by wood and hit their bodies.


Fresh blood poured down on his grandparents' heads.


"Grandfather, grandma, are you okay?" subhan asked while trying to lift the very heavy wood.


"Son, me and your grandfather are okay"


"It's just a small wound" said Subhan's grandfather and grandmother


Their faces looked pale, yet they were still strong to stand.


"Well, I have managed to lift this wood" Subhan murmured inwardly.


While looking around, his house looks a little damaged but not much.


"Grandpa, grandma, you guys rest at home, I'll go find Sutikno at his house" Subhan told his grandparents


"Oh yes son"


"But if you go out now, aren't you afraid?"


"Look, the clouds are still very dark" said Subhan's grandmother


"No grandma"


"The loud bang sounds don't seem to be there anymore" Subhan said with great confidence.


"Judah then"


"Be careful on the road, son"


"If you're done with business, you go straight home?" said Subhan's grandmother to warn Subhan.


"Yes grandma" replied Subhan short.


Subhan, finally went down the street and in his mind he was going to head to Sutikno's house his close friend.


Arriving at Sutikno's house, Subhan saw Sutikno's house looked lonely. He ventured to knock on Sutikno's door who knew there was still someone inside


"Tok tok tok" Subhan began knocking on Sutikno's door, and a few moments later, both Sutikno's father and mother came out


"Sir, ma'am, does Sutikno exist?" suban asked curiously because Sutikno had not seen the trunk of his nose.
