Srinayu On the Hill of Randu
Chapter 31 | Sightseeing to Middle Forest

MR. LINGGIH approached Nyu. standing upright beside her left back, then, asked lightly, "Is such a big pool still too small for her?"

For a moment Nayu looked back at his shoulders. "He wants to continue his dream."

"Which dream?" ask Mr. Linggih pretending not to know. "Luckily the beautiful flower garden was built by himself.., and now it is destroyed just like that."

Nayu looked again. Displays a smile, slightly reveals his white teeth. "A lake" he answered briefly. Seen the face of the father, still reflected in the feelings of incomprehension. "The color will be expanded to become a lake," he said slowly. This time Nayu hopes that her father can understand Randu.

"Truly a dream," said Mr. Linggih while splitting the coconut into two parts and throwing it into a wooden tray. "He's going to completely overhaul all those parks."

Naju chuckled sweetly, and pulled his hair to the side, until his clear ears glistened. Then give a little defense for Randu, "Not really. if you want to help him." Nayu nibbled her lips.

"If he doesn't reject my good intentions. Let me enter into his dream. Let alone the lake, the magnificent palace, and its beautiful vessels, and I will build for him." And, cleaving the third round coconut.

Nayu flinched again in laughter. Sumringah blushed red her lips and cheeks, because for her, the words she heard contained the beauty of poets. "Pad's words are poetic. I sound like a Randu."

"Well... Did ya? Which part, honey?"

"The words that Dad poetic."

"Puitis...?" It turns out that his son has learned a lot, with the increasing number of people here, thought Mr. Linggih proud. But, baby, they're gone. Only one remains.

"Yes... Poetic."

"Yes, I know. I mean..., what is Randu himself?"

"He loves to be a poet and he wants to be a poet. He said, since he was a kid."

"It's not that he wants to be an insiny__ building expert. Yes, Nyu, the builder. People who are good at designing houses. From a small house to a very large house. In fact, some are able to make a house as big as that hill."

"No. Nope. He wants to be a poet. There is a place that can fulfill that desire... He said. His name is. university."

"University...?!!!"

"University. Literature Department."

"STILL far, NYU...!?" ask Randu impatiently.

Actually Randu was expecting their journey even further. More into the wilderness, to find the imaginary cliff border between his world now with other worlds rich in color. A world of isolation. With the wings of hope he will bring Nayu flying across the steep but beautiful walls to nirvana where his longing is. The further the path traveled the more pearl grains collected in the portico of his heart. The pearls exude a glittering aura, each of which has a different color, which is able to illuminate and explain about lost souls and passions. Pearls of color are tucked between the trees, a patch of saltpeter, rocks, pebbles, pepasiran, water, air, and are shrouded behind the motion, said the word, or sigh.

Nayu stopped her steps. "Are you scared?!"

Randu scrunched his forehead. That question sounds funny to Randu. "There's nothing to be afraid of" he replied confidently.

Nyun smiled. Sweet. "Except the werewolf," the god.

Randu was flabbergasted, as just this time saw Naju smiling.

This time it was different. He was talking to Nayu in the middle of the forest. Just the two of them. Without Mr. Linggih and Ms. Srining, without the accompaniment of four friends, without anyone. "Only myself and herself." It was as if this angel belonged to him.

Pandu scratched his head that did not itch. In addition to dandruff, also shed some imaginary fruit grains as well.

In front, the ground began to open. The trees stood gracefully, waving friendly nyiur. Fresh green leaves, reflecting whitish light. Dried brown leaves scattered in the ground grass. Fragile branches are also scattered among the leaves. There are almost no surfaces with rocks or gravel.

To the right of Nayu there are a group of pine trees as a guide. From there there is a path that has not been passed for a long time to reach the river nicknamed Melehan Intan River flowing gently. Their final destination.

Nayu turned to look at Randu, intending to tell him that path will be chosen. Randu complied, nodding slowly with a smile. He gave this trip to the girl. This wild wilderness is very irregular for Randu.

"I'll follow you, Princess. I'm escorting you from behind."

Nayu smiled small, blushing, shy. Like a flickering flickering little star nun far away there on a rough night.

"I'm serious." Sure Randu once again found that Bayu had not yet reacted to his words with words. Nayu's smile was multi-interpretation for him. It is very difficult, perhaps it takes a real sacrifice to convince the jungle. "I don't let anything or anyone hurt you! Not even a single strand of your hair will I let it get scratched, let alone escape from its crown!"

Nayu was silent, stunned to look at Randu. Lost voice, lost words, lost himself. Duhai women, is that so, it is easy to eat compliments.

"Let me walk in front. Just show me the direction..," Randu asked as he passed by Nyu. The tone is soft, as soft as the fine hairs are bent. Made as closely as possible as the words of the noble knights in ancient times.

"But, is your safe position behind me or in front of me?" Significant. The safety of Nayu is important. "I can't see the danger that threatens you when you're behind me. So better..." Sandy seemed to think again.

Again, Nyu just smiled to respond to him, while stepping ahead of Randu. They changed positions as before.

"Just like that ko' bothered, huh...?" rummam Randu softly while smiling.

There is time to work, there is time to get tired. Nayu felt it was time for her legs to feel weak to get compassion. "Our stretcher rest first. I'm getting tired." The tip of his eye saw the fall of a tree. Nayu walked closer with her steps.

Randu was still standing, like a bodyguard he had to make sure first that things were really safe and under control. Looking right left, front back, top down, and not to miss the cross and oblique. Tiger, wolf. Crocodile, Bear. Snake, Eagle. The rest may be dirty.

Nayu grabbed both legs. Then, tidying up her long skirt that looked a little tangled. Both pairs of fingers are put together and placed on the knees. Do not forget to first brush his hair that is drowned limp. And, finally being refined by the subtle exposure of the hiking wind, creating a spectacular scene, Naju's hair swayed gently, emitting the aura of a woman's beauty. This is what is touted 'The Real of Graceful Enchanting.' It seems that Randu occasionally steals a glance.

The look in Randu's eyes was caught off guard. "You wanna sit here? Do you want to stand there...? Only the trunk of this tree is the best place right now."

Sandu did not react. Maybe he was embarrassed because he was found out. O ow kam mu to ta huan...

Sacrificing her delicate fingers gently Nayu wiped gently the surface of the tree trunk on her side. "Sit down!"

Like being under the influence of magic all magic, Randu moved closer. Dazed, empty mind, without a fight, until consciously found it had sat just beside Nyu. Then, quietly.

Nayu's eyes swept the surrounding forest. Then, lower his head and observe his wiggly fingers. The nails are long, but clean and shiny. Suddenly he started a conversation, a question that surprised Randu, "You have a friend...? In the city, of course...?"

The glint of a silvery white photo camera lamp that was very blinding felt snatching the pupils of Randu's eyes. It happened so quickly, suddenly, without his knowledge, without warning, suddenly. Very surprising, making the contents of his head scattered in disarray. For a moment Randu felt empty for a moment. Missing moment.

"Randu...!? Rand...!? A stretcher?!"

"I...!?"

"We are only two in this forest, Randu," replied Nayu while looking at Randu astonished.

Randu needed some time to think, waiting for a wise answer behind the glint of light still remaining inside his head. While Nayu patiently waited. When the light had completely faded, replacing the dim nuances, then he could clearly see the line of letters arranged. Although in a mess, he tried to string it up, "Basically there is..."

Nayu tried to penetrate the recesses of Randu's heart, but his dense black aura was very tight to fortify him. Nayu lost track.

"basically? On the surface no...?" timpal Bayu is a little teasing.

"Maybe on the surface."

"Ha... Now on the surface!" Nyu protest. It turned out that this girl was not as quiet as Randu had imagined before. This is the color of one of the pearls that Randu managed to find. Nayu is a little happy to joke but does not seem flirtatious or coquettish.

Nayu laughed a little, then smiled. Always sweet. This time, he tried to hide his smile.

"Then your parents, champ...?" Tanya Nayu moved back on the topic.

"I'm not a whiz!" reject Randu loudly, his objection was considered as such.

"Yes whatever. Ee... What about your parents, not the hero?" reset Nayu. "Basic plain."

"Hey! I'm not innocent!" Pandu. He could not accept that insult at all. But, "It's up to you... Both my parents are still there. They were fine when I left."

Momentary silence. The opportunity was utilized by the wind back gently breezing between them.

"Ehm. As I imagined. You know what I mean...?" Nayu looked up for a moment. Then, "The outsiders."

The sky is falling, the earth is shaking, the mountains are flying, the sea is turbulent, the lightning is striking.

If Nayu was really interested in discussing it, Randu was forced to resign. "So much worse than that," he said softly, "People even hated me before I could open my mouth. They look at me like they're looking at an animal ******. Animals*******have never bitten them at all. As I recall, I never raped their grandmother."

"Well...! Raping...?!"

"It's just a term."

Nyu smiled knot. "Yes.., I know."

"The whole world hates me. I exist because they are the ones who make me exist. Slowly they rolled me into what they imagined, according to their prejudices. They created a vicious circle for me. I am more hated than a murderer though.., more hated than a drug addict, rapist, same-sex lover, *****, valing..." Randu fell silent, his face looking all wrong.

"Is that why you got to vacation in the middle of the forest and in the end accidentally stranded to my palace...?" continued Nyu. Meanwhile, his little heart started to think that Randu was an escape. This young man is full of wounds, guess pretty sure.

"Yes" replied Randu. Indifferent, as if not listening to the question.

"Oh, that's terrible."

"Then, you are alone.Why is your family in a place like this? Just the three of you...?" Feel my vengeance, thought Randu. "In this very remote place...? Don't-don't you guys.. hated society huh...?"

When Randu thought he had succeeded in replying, it was quite the opposite. Disappointed, Bayu remained calm, not showing the slightest anger.

"Just as we are born into the world, it is already so. Destiny doesn't require reason or explanation. This wilderness is my home, my palace, and also my paradise."

Pandu.

"But lately I don't think of them as friends anymore." The talk of Randu jumped back. As if this is something very important, which must be explained, as clearly as possible. Or, it's just a flood of feelings. Starting to feel comfortable with Nyu as a place to complain.

Nayu just nodded, no words of the attendant.

Suddenly a bird perched on a kara tree, right in front of Nayu. However, just stop for a moment, then leave. But it's quite attention-grabbing.

"Round eyes. On its periphery was surrounded by a red circle with slight bluish spots of light flickering. The fur is red silvery grooved, some green, flashing rainbow colors when exposed to the sun. The tail is long but not bushy. There are feathers.one tail feathers are striking, protruding longer than the other. The whole appearance, like a mature woman who is graceful in character," said Nayu. But, throughout his words, not once did he glance at Randu.

"Your name comes from that bird...? Srinayu?"

Nayu whined, like the eyes of a kecak dancer. "The bird's name is the same as where you came from?"

Randu. "Absolutely not. I even knew him in this forest."

"Then how do you know about the origin of my name...?"

"Your father," replied Randu slowly but without insisting on doubts.

"Oh, you're more familiar than I thought." Nayu mangut-mangut, in his heart decorated with thousands of prejudices.

"Not really."

Then, the two of them were silent for a moment.

Unexpectedly, Nayu suddenly asked the thing that was a vital part of a kind of fortification of a Pandu, "You have someone who means...!?"

Randu looked at Naju sharply, like a hot arrow to see the deer who was laughing out loud.

Naju felt his speech was wrong, the pupils of Randu's eyes were getting tapered. This girl is starting to feel fear.

"Randu, I'm sorry...!" Nayu hurriedly wanted to make things right. His face was terrified. Too bad, he must be crying for a moment. "I'm sorry!"

Instantly Randu jumped forward quickly, about to pounce. Being late...

"Rampoo! Sorry...!" Nayu screeched in fear.

"Yahaaaaaghh!!! Eeerrgh!!!" A striped tiger furiously, urung continued the movement over his foul intentions. It turns out that from earlier the wild beast was eyeing the body of Mayu's mole full of lust from behind the bush.

"Aaaaaaakh...!" Nayu screeched in fear while jumping backwards.

Randu and the tiger are now facing each other with their respective fighting positions. The palm of Randu's left hand pressed against the ground to support the body, while his fist-clenched right hand was on the edge of the hip. And, both of his legs were in a crawling position. His style imitated that hungry tiger as well. Randu. Plagiarism.

"Too back slowly...! Don't make any surprising moves!" It is not his safety that he is worried about. Mayu is worth more than his own life. This is a pearl of heroic color. Pearl Hero.

Nayu moved back slowly. Suddenly his back accidentally hit the tree trunk behind him. He screamed, "Aaaakhh...!"

Coinciding with Naju's scream, the hungry tiger immediately pounced on Randu. Very fast movement.

Randu. With a sweet body contortion he managed to dodge and turn the direction. Now Randu was behind the tiger's back. It's a golden opportunity to teach the savage star a lesson in order to know who Randu really is. Stretcher jumped high and aimed his fists.

Exactly it. The tiger's skull was hit by a crushing blow.

The tiger rolled and bounced about two meters. He roars in pain. His body instigated another attack. When he wanted to do a jumping movement, he staggered. The beast had to undo his intentions. His head may be twitching due to the hit earlier. His strength also shrunk.

The stretcher approached. When the tiger realized, Randu was right in front of him. The two arms of Randu are crossed behind the waist. Appearing an authoritative aura, the Pearl of Trust and Self-Esteem.

The unlucky tiger retreated slowly while crawling humbled himself. After several meters, he rushed to escape as quickly as possible and disappeared in the arms of the wilderness. Randu continued to look at the departure of the striped tiger until it completely disappeared from sight.
