The Tippingback of Rania's World
Episode 144 - Rania and Mikko

"So how? Go home or continue," asked Felix when the patrol team was gone.

"Just continue. We've already arrived here" said Rania.

"But they said, if one year ago the grandmother had..."

"Duh, you guys are so scared. If you don't want to go let me alone," angry Rania cut off Valen's words just now.

Without waiting for her friends, Rania set foot into the valley.

"Oh yeah, we'll just follow Rania. They said, in that direction you can also find a big road, right? So the same way we go home," said Arka.

"But, if you meet the same one from another world how?" valen said agitatedly.

"What about "other world? Oh my goodness, big body. We are rame, here. Losing time with girls," Mikko said.

Towards sunset, they walked towards the valley, as the patrol team had pointed out.

"Where are you going?"

"Yeah....!"

The voice of the old woman who suddenly greeted them but did not appear to be her, frightened Rania and the comrades.

"Bro, your voice is the loudest you know?" rania protests to Valen with a laugh.

"Candy... Sorry reflex."

"But where did that voice come from? It didn't look anything, you know," Felix said, looking around.

"Tree cover, times," said Arka.

The trees are getting thicker, and cover the sun from the western horizon, making the forest floor becomes very dark like night.

"Grandmother is here. Where are you guys going? It's almost magrib, you know."

"Emmm... Grandma, we still can't see Grandma. But, our goal is to get here to see Grandma Esther. Maybe Grandma knew him?" said Arka carefully.

"Oh... You guys want to meet Grandma Esther? Hehehe... Yes already. Come on along."

"Gyaa... Ghost.." exclaimed Valen.

"Duh, you're not polite. Grandma is a ghost. This is it, Grandma here. Your southeast direction. Time not seen?"

All eyes then headed towards the Southeast. A large banyan tree stands in the middle of a thicket of shrubs.

"Hey, are you sure you want to come with that grandma? I think it's suspicious, huh" whispered Felix.

"yes too. His form was not visible from earlier," Mikko whispered back.

"Curtain, you coward. I've met you in person for nothing, really," said Rania.

"Hey, wait for Rania!" Arka held Rania's arm that was about to go to the banyan tree.

"Any fear too?" rania.

"No. But we should prune a little bit of this bush, so as not to hurt our bodies," said Arka.

"No need. You can go through the detour through the path that is covered by the thicket. Usually the forest explorers also pass by there," said the grandmother again.

Srak... Srak... The group of young men then walked carefully according to the direction of the grandmother.

Valen kept his eyes on the map and compass so they wouldn't get lost...

"It turns out that the direction this grandmother is pointing is right" Valen murmured in his heart.

But still, the path they went through was not easy. Several times their trousers were caught in rattan stems that grew in the ground.

"Guys, you guys smell carrion, don't you?" whispered Mikko.

"Yes. It stinks," Felix replied in a whisper as well.

"The more it gets there, the more it smells, huh?" said Arka pula.

Gluey! Undeniably, Rania also smelled the same smell. What are they going to find this human? Or are..."

"It could be the smell of animal carcasses" whispered Valen.

"Eh, really. Later in the hytan, my brain became shaken" Felix later said.

Ten minutes later, they arrived at a place that was not very lush.

"Geez!" They almost screamed, heard the sound.

Srak! The bushes under the huge banyan tree were swaying. A woman dressed in traditional European clothes walked up to them.

"Grandma!" exclaim Rania happy.

"Ugh, but what's the smell of carrion, huh?" think they're together.

"But his feet are on the grass, guys," Valen said with a gesture of eye, keeping his eyes on his friends.

"Ah, sorry if you guys smell bad. Since one year ago, my grandmother had wet diabetes, so some parts of my body were rotting" Grandma said.

"Oh, so that's what the forest patrol team meant... Grandma's been sick since last year." Valen said in relief.

"Yes. Grandma also suffers from TB."

"Why was that why, Grandma ran away from me back then?" ask Rania.

"Yes. But why did you come here so crowded? Let's chat at Grandma's cottage. But after that you should go home immediately. In a moment magrib, many wild beasts," the grandmother asked.

In the simple hut of the grandmother, Rania and her friends also tell of cases that have just occurred, including the death of Princess Rania.

Rania also expressed her gratitude and greetings from grandfather.

"Ah, greetings back to your grandfather, Rania."

The sun finally sets. They have to get home before the night gets late.

"Women really don't want to live in the city? Grandma can be treated there," persuaded Rania before returning home.

"Granny's house is here. Grandma is comfortable living here. And patrol teams as well as climbers often visit the grandmother here. Every now and then the doctor comes along, too" said Grandma Esther with a smile.

"Well, if that's it. Sometimes we play here again" said Rania and friends.

...🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺...

"Friends, sorry. I have to go home first. I've picked up daddy," Valen said as soon as they reached the tourist lake.

"Well, unfaithful friend of yours. We both came. How come daddy came home, you?" ptotes Mikko's.

"Sorry, bray. But I have to be home before nine. I'll see you at school" Valen said, then ran over to the white pajero.

"Ah, really too. Shouldn't I take my motorcycle that entered the workshop? I'm coming home to you, okay?" arka said to Felix.

"Can, come."

"Bang, my mom said I was going home with my brother. How was it left out, anyway? Your motorbike is just a camping trip. Most now it's done, too" said Rania.

"If later on the road kempes again how? When do you want to walk while pushing a motorcycle?" said Arka.

"If you go home with Mikko, I won't be angry."

"Cih," said Rania sebel.

"Judek. Home, yuk. You go home to mom's or mom's?" bring Mikko.

"Mama's house" said Rania Ketus.

A while later, in Mikko's mobi.

"Rania, I don't know why you've been avoiding me this month. You know, right? We go home with gini actually their wits," Mikko said.

"Yes. I know, really. I'll just give you some space, for again grieving the loss of Rania Putri."

"So because of that, you avoid me? Because of the funeral?"

Rania did not answer.

"Rania... I'm..."

"Hiss. I'm tired of just being a friend for a second because you need a runaway. Make sure your heart first, who do you love? We are still in school too. Love is not the main task of a student" says Rania.

"But I really like you, Rania," Mikko said.

"Our relationship is over. Let's just say we go back to the starting point, where we don't know each other, and you're only close to Rania Putri" said Rania.
