The Five Days Or Die
Chapter 34 (END)

Everyone was silent when they saw the iPad.The little iPad looked very fragile, but it would have enlarged when it was opened.

They all glanced towards Nadin, who had the heaviest memories with that thing. Nadin's face was also a little troubled, but he seemed to be about something like this.

"Why is everyone staring at me? Is there something wrong with me?" Nadin asked half nervously.

"this iPad is a gift from our parents, as you know. They left it to me, probably because he planned this." Ahmad took a deep breath.

"I was clearly against it, but they kept insisting, and asked me to give it to you, Nadin." Ahmad immediately went to the core of the conversation. Everyone stared at Nadin. Nadin knows that.

"All right! I'll try to open it!" Shouted Nadin confidently. He touched the little iPad, and immediately it opened, and displayed a fairly long sound recording.

"Vlog day 5! This is our fifth day in the past. Or maybe I could say it's another world? The trees are still plentiful and the air is still refreshing. It's all because of Rickzan!" Amy's voice came from the iPad.

"That's it. There is no point in complaining. We must seek life soon. I also don't want to be constantly in the middle of a place I don't know like this." Now it's Arby's turn.

"This is the vlog of them both?" Dani asked quietly, which was immediately glared at by Ahmad.

"Yes as you know, we're now stranded somewhere we don't know where. This is no longer our time but in the past. We have to figure out where and when we're stranded."

*

"Vlog seventh day with Amy! Somehow we got stranded between 2020 and 2022. There are still many viruses that attack. Obviously we're not afraid of the virus."

"But the problem is the thing that is caused after that. There was quite a lot of unrest after that because of some countries whose economies were getting worse. Maybe it's good for us to live in a quiet place."

"It looks like it's all my fault, for not quickly securing the time key so we can get back."

"No. It wasn't your fault. After all, it was because it was waiting for me, right? And if I'm gonna blame myself, you're gonna ban it."

*

"Day 25 with Amy! Some of our nearby towns have already begun to disintegrate. Brondong there's still some we can use there."

"Like a car that was originally abandoned damaged, and some other tools. We've also started to be able to assemble weapons to protect ourselves."

"Hey, did you really record on day 25, Amy?"

"I really did!"

*

"Vlog day 73 with Amy! It seemed, we were already getting used to the state of this world. To be honest this place is much more comfortable than our previous world. Although we lived in a difficult place, but somehow the air and the feeling is much more comfortable than there."

"Yes you're right Amy. I've also researched that there are far fewer police characters here than there are in the future. And also here there are many trees if we continue the journey just a little."

"We easily grow plants, even we have grown our own crops. We're afraid we'll forget our own homeland later."

*

"Vlog day 129 with Amy! I've kind of forgotten about my vlog activities lately. Because there are quite a lot of activities here, and I've started to feel comfortable with all of this. Pretty sad indeed."

"But it's true what you said. The more work we do, the easier it is to forget what has happened. We have a lot of medicine here. A lot of weapons, as well as a pretty good house."

"But still, Arby. I miss the kids. Have we not left them long enough? What happened to them? Is it the person who wants to take them?"

"Alright it looks like I can't handle this part."

*

"Vlog day 141 with Amy! What a coincidence or a plan, we meet our sons and daughters again! More precisely our son alone, because our daughter is being held captive by Rickzan."

"Yes, Amy. I feel guilty about getting them into this thing."

"You're right. Do we have to stop him now?"

*

"Amys! Hurry along! I activated the iPad!" Now their vlog sounds chaotic. Arby's voice then the sound of gunfire and sound falling from the iPad itself.

"Vlog of days I don't know how many! I'm sure this is our last vlog. And you're also sure to give this to our children." Amy's voice became heavy.

"Ahmad, Nadin, forgive your parents, son! You've already implicated you on a matter of this magnitude even though we never gave you anything. We'll leave you when you still need our love."

"For Ahmad, I'm glad you have the same goals as your father, with your mother as well. I'm happy too, because you have good friends. I wonder if you eat regularly? You have to eat a lot of fish! So you can keep being smart!" The sound of sobbing is heard.

"Then for Nadin, I apologize for choosing a path like this. As I said before, you feel responsible with Rickzan now."

"I'm sure Nadin seems to be the hardest to accept. Because we just met, just spoke. But listen to me, Nadin. Find lots of friends, and keep learning. I kind of want to see you become a famous researcher. But it all comes back to you, because life is a choice."

"Arby, please. I'll alternate wake up." The gunfire stopped for a moment.

"I don't ask for too much. First and most importantly, please delete all the files on my computer." Nadin stopped the recording for a moment.

"Eh? Whatisthis? I wonder what it is!" Dani smiled strangely. Nadin continued recording the sound.

"No no! Don't misunderstand me first! There's a file on the time machine. If you do not want to use it, please destroy or delete all data in it. No longer does the same mistake happen. How's it?" Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes. I asked for that. Furthermore, it seems like it has been all said by your mother. So, father would only say one thing," his voice halted for a moment.

"I love you guys." And the tape was done there.

"Nadin, you?" Ahmad was a little worried about his brother who could have thought of this, or become sad about it.

"Why? Didn't I tell you that I won't be sad because of this! I'm gonna be me! I am Nadin, a cunning and ignorant genius. How am I going to forget?!" Nadin laughs.

"You, you're right too, yeah! Whatever it is, we'll always support you, Nadin!" Reply Ranti.

6 months later...

"Geechuu!!" Dani sneezes loudly, with Dian waiting for Ahmad and Ranti. They promised to meet later this year. And the atmosphere they get is winter. Therefore, they used warm suits on their bodies.

"Uhh, forgive us! We're late." Ahmad is seen waving his hand at Dani.

"Hugh, you're arrogant for being such a great writer, yeah!" Dani grumbled a little. He patted Ahmad's shoulder quite hard.

"Ahh, if it's about that, I want to say it with you guys. Since this is our story, we should be happy with this. I also earn income, and you guys get names. Impas, right?" Ahmad said with a slight laugh.

"Alright fine! And your goal is to treat us, right?" Dani asked while forgetting her sadness earlier.

"But brother Ahmad, not a brother who is suitable to be a writer, while let Nadin who became an inventor? Isn't that nice?" Dian's Proposal.

"Hmm, that seems right. What do you think, Nadin?" Ranti Response.

"Ahh, honestly I'm a bit lazy to be a researcher. So I'm just handing it to brother Ahmad." Nadin answered while scratching his head.

"That's right! I don't want to either! Because I have to find the material to make up the story!" Answer Ahmad origin.

"Whoa! Then take me!" Dani is enthusiastic.

"Then, let's get to the time machine and go back to looking for something good to tell!" Shouted Ahmad while raising his hands high.

"NO MORE TIME MACHINES!!!!" Shouted them all almost simultaneously
