The Five Days Or Die
Chapter 14's

PoV: Ahmed

“Let me go! Let go of me!” Nadin was still shouting while hitting the robot's arm. And I just stayed down here doing nothing. “Kakak.” I read his lips before he was finally taken away.

Slowly, I woke up, looking at Ranti's face, the face of someone who always calmed me and encouraged me. I looked around, we were inside the house, where the house had quite complete facilities. At least there are lights still on. I know, it must be dark outside. And I saw the clock. At 09:00 p.m.

“How long have I fainted?” ahmad asked Ranti.

“About 1 hour 30 minutes.” Said. I still feel lost, obviously.

“I take a shower first. There's clean water here. Turns out that guy was nice to us. You have to meet them.” Said. I'm kind of surprised.

“Why haven't you been clean since you got home?” my many.

“I can't calm down before you wake up Mad!” said. And then leave me.

***

Today, by a miracle, Nadin, found our way home, and Nadin protected us as we pressed on.

She is my bravest sister, where I as her brother only take refuge in her shadow. Where is my pride as a man? As sister? I should have been able to protect her, from any danger. What I'm doing now is just sitting down and doing nothing.

Nadin also found a place we had to go to, a place that had our hopes. He encouraged us to get back up.

But when I tried to understand it, why did this happen? What good am I? There ain't! I know, he's a strong man. But the last word before he left.

“Kakak!” I don't know what else to do.

“Maybe go back to walking and save your sister!” sahiut someone. I immediately looked. I'm shocked. Is this a dream? Wasn't it! I just lost my sister. But now the one in front of me was even more shocking.

“Mother?” askaku. I tried not to shed a tear, when I finally ran over and hugged my mother and felt like I was not willing to let go.

“So, mom has been alive all this time?” my many.

“Yahh. Even though we were thrown in the past, we can still survive here.” The answer.

“We?”

“Yes! We.” He said, looking to the side, I kept looking the same way. I saw a figure I hadn't seen in a long time. Daddy's! I immediately hugged them both.

“I miss you guys so much, yeah, mom!” I said.

“Nadin must also miss you guys. He would also be happy if he was here.” I said back, down sad.

“We also miss you guys. We didn't expect to see you again. Even if that is our prayer every day, to meet you again. But I did not expect to be met in conditions like this.” Said mother.

“By the way, who is it? Your girlfriend huh?” ask mom.

“Yeah, a lot of things have happened.” I'm not against it, nor am I.

“Dad! You should be able to come back, right? Why don't you come back with us? I found my way home, didn't I!” ask him.

“So you've read dad's notebook? You guys should be heading here. Like you said, a lot of things have happened. That is also our wish, Ahmad. Only, time does not allow.” Said father while slightly clenching his hands. Looks like he's upset.

“We shouldn't be here, and you guys aren't suffering shoes. It's all because of that damned Rickzan. I won't forgive him when I meet him face to face.” Mother said, also emotions. I don't know what's going on, but it looks like it's serious.

“Of course. But now, where's my other friend?” I asked Dani and her cousin.

“Ohh, they're resting in the next room. Let it go.” Answer mother.

“So like this. I've actually noticed a weakness in the prison of time. And I reported it to my boss. But how else, the father is only a subordinate, which must comply with the words of the superior. So dad's story with dad's assistant, Rickzan. Rickzan's been working with dad for about 5 years. At the time of the time machine manufacturing project, my father entrusted the design part of the machine to Rickzan. But ever since he heard the weakness of time prison, he turned into a more reclusive private.” My father's story.

“Then?” ask for more information.

“Insiden occurs when the launch prtama time machine. When the time machine took us to a few years ago, we realized a mistake had occurred. And when it arrived, the time machine exploded and broke, kai immediately searched for “time key” but, when kai had found it, tipa tiab Ridawan seized it and left us all.” Father's story is complete and clear.

“So so is the chronology. So Rickzan has it all planned?”

“Maybe yes may not.” Answer mom briefly.

“And now, he's eyeing your “time key”. Now, where is that thing?’ ask dad. I immediately felt sad again.

“Nadin found her, so I feel she has the right to take her.”

“So actually Rickzan has brought “time key”?"

“Ya.”

That ended our short conversation. There's no other way. I have to pick up my sister. He's along with the most wanted thing, the time key. There's no guarantee he'll survive once Rickzan finds that time key. I want to leave my parents and my friends. Somehow, I became acting rash. When at last at the door was someone who was facing me.

“Where are you going?” tanyakanya. Apparently dani.

“My sister needs me! I have to get there!” I said firmly.

“Why didn't you invite us?” ask Ranti who now appears.

“Because.” I can't answer.

“Why Mad? You think we're just a burden? And we're just making things difficult for you? Is that what you think?” ask Dani with a tone that starts to rise.

“Not so, but,” I can't continue my words. I looked down, feeling guilty for my friend.

“Why Mad?” Ranti has an explanation.

“That's because I can't see any more hurt! If I go there, at least my sister can survive. But I'm not sure about myself. I'm afraid, if you come along, you'll have the same fate as me. This is a suicide mission. I don't want to involve all of you in my troubles.” Obviously I said everything.

“Your problem, our problem too. What is it for a friend if he is not there next to his friend when needed? Macm friends what is it?” Ranti started to embrace me.

“Yes! Thas right. If we have it, then we will end it.” Dani who used to be negative thinking now comforts me

“And you can't say, that you don't want to involve us. We have been involved so far. So yahh, inevitably, we have to come.” Back, Dani said motivating me.

“Don't forget us. We are also involved with this issue!” said the mother who came out of the room.

“If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea,” sing Dani slowly. The song we heard when we arrived. A song about friendship. And, well, we all love that song.

“I'll sail the world to find you.” Ranti.

“Come on, why not?” said Ranti. And we ended up singing that song. “Count on Me” from Bruno Mars. The song that we didn't know before, turned out to be a unifier as we split.

“Alright, together, we can go through everything!” I said steady.
