Village Girl With a Million Dreams
Chapter 111 (Camping Part 4)

Malik hasn't moved his body all night. She was afraid to disturb Ayu who was sleeping in her arms. Many burdens that Ayu carried alone for the good of many. Malik feels more and more in love with her at this moment. Not willing if there are people who do evil to him especially to hurt him.

Malik was still in the dream when Ayu woke him up. Her pretty smile that faded last night is back.

When he fell asleep, Malik felt he was still holding her, he was unconscious when Ayu woke up and let go of his embrace.

"Sister...." Ayu smiled and hugged Malik who had just opened his eyes.

"Why baby?" Malik carries Ayu in his arms. Hugging her tightly full of love.

"Thank you for coming. Did I make Malik worried?" Ayu felt bad but also happy.

"Of course, but I didn't come because I was worried." Touching Ayu's cheek with gentleness. "I came because I couldn't resist the longing." Ayu's cheeks instantly blushed hearing Malik's words.

Ayu's heart was racing irregularly. Always embarrassed when Malik revealed his heart.

"Boss.....Ah.sorry Boss." Malik rounded his eyes to see Aldo enter without permission into his tent.

"You're this, always bothering me." Ayu pinched Malik's arm feeling embarrassed.

"I saw Miss, so I thought you were done...." Not continuing his words.

"I went to my friends, brother. I have to get ready for morning gymnastics." Malik kissed Ayu's forehead before letting go.

"Why Al. You're so tense." Malik felt something was wrong.

"I've heard the full story of what happened here Boss." Aldo was sure Malik would go berserk.

"Then..." Sipping the warm tea that Ayu brought.

"All events seem intentional, because it's always Miss who is the target. But Edward said Oji was at his residence."

Malik took a deep breath. Exhaling her slowly to unravel the emotions that had begun to overwhelm her.

"Do you have any leads?" Malik did not think of a single name.

"It's not the boss yet. Hans and the rest of the committee's friends are gonna try to figure out the boss." Malik got up from his seat, he had to breathe fresh air.

"While we're watching, make sure Ayu's safe and not far from our reach." Aldo was talking to someone else.

Malik is usually always emotional and screams in his eardrum when angry. But this time he smiled like he wasn't Malik.

Malik sat on a long wooden bench that was already near the field. It looks like all the students have lined up neatly for morning gymnastics.

Ayu is easy to find, only she's a student at Malik's school wearing a hijab.

Malik was happy to see Ayu joking with laughter with her best friend.

"Aldo, who is the girl who joined hands with Ayu. I just saw it." Malik saw Martha.

"He's a transfer student. He's joining Miss Boss' group." Aldo doesn't see Martha as dangerous. He's an ordinary student.

"Supervise him, I don't want Ayu to believe in a stranger she just met." Malik is always suspicious of anyone.

"Good Boss." Aldo can only obey.

Malik again enjoyed the beautiful scenery before his eyes. Seeing Ayu's bright smile this morning, made Malik's heart flowery.

From a distance Malik saw there was happiness in Ayu. Like teenagers in general, like there is no burden like the real one is currently haunting him.

Aldo guards Ayu from a distance as Malik leaves him to clean up.

Aldo smiled to see Ayu surrounded by friends who loved him very much. He remembered Samuel who had been very busy and difficult to contact lately.

After the gymnastics ended, the committee took all the students around the forest to pluck green vegetables and pluck yams and cassava.

The students were enthusiastic about doing activities they had never done before. Unlike Ayu, she was already used to the work of fields and rice fields like this.

He offered to share his knowledge with his friends.

Deftly Ayu tried to give instructions on how to pull the yam and cassava correctly. It turns out that any job must use science so that the work feels easier to do.

All the students followed the instructions from Ayu, the committee did not even think of a proper way to pluck the yam and cassava well so as not to be left in the ground.

Completed the draining field activities, all the students returned to the tent to clean themselves up. Give the harvest to be processed into delicious food.

Ayu and her friends always bathe together because they are afraid of the dark bathroom atmosphere in the middle of the forest.

"What are they doing?" Malik was surprised the four of them went into the same bathroom while rubbing his still wet hair.

"Mandi Boss." Aldo answered.

"Grandmothers also know Al. But why do they all enter in 1 room. There are many other places." Malik was envious.

"Maybe they'd rather take a bath together." Aldo smiling. Makes Malik even more surprised.

"Normally girls who take a shower like to talk about bad things, boss." Aldo pranks on flirting with Malik.

"It's naughty how Al." She never took a bath together. Ayu still hasn't turned herself in. Malik also patiently waited for Ayu's readiness.

"Not the boss, the children of the committee are the same. Nothing is suspicious." Everyone who went camping had nothing to make them suspicious.

"We need to stay alert." Malik envied seeing such a beautiful youth. He didn't have a chance like they all had.

All students enjoy breakfast with yam and cassava. Eating hungry makes everyone excited. Even simple foods like this taste great.

Malik just this time ate cassava and boiled yam. Usually he eats yams in restaurants in different forms. But Malik likes it. It feels natural and makes her tongue enjoy every bite.

Today the students of his activities are looking for clues that have been spread in various corners of the forest not far from the campground.

All students are happy to follow every event and challenge organized by the committee.

After getting the first clue, each group was ready to enter the wilderness.

Aldo and Malik follow Ayu and his team from a distance. They feel young again.

Jofan finds a second clue, they are led into the forest deeper.

While searching for clues, Martha's hand accidentally held a plant full of thorns. His hands were bleeding and there were some thorns stuck in his hands.

"Okay.sick Sis." His whine on Jofan who was quick to give help.

Sandra is jealous of Jofan's sweet attitude towards Martha. There was always someone who took Jofan's attention away from him.

Malik ran away as fast as he could to Ayu and his friends.

"Are you hurt?" Ayu shook her head, Malik was relieved.

"Why not be careful." Aldo helps Jofan pull the thorn that stuck in Martha's hand.

Martha began to be unable to hold back her tears. His wounds were not deep, but it was enough to make him feel pain.

"Calm down, it'll be fine. This plant is harmless." They continue the search after sticking plaster in Martha's injured hand.

They walk in full of hope. Hope the next clue is found soon.

"Yu, over there." Martha pointed at the small flag hidden behind the lush twigs and leaves.

His hand could not reach the flag he saw because his hand was still very sore. Ayu immediately ran to grab it.

Akhhhhhhh...

Ayu's feet fell into a rope that dragged her to the bottom of the abyss.

Malik, Aldo and Jofan ran as fast as lightning grabbed the rope, Ayu's hands and body that were dragged to the bottom of the ravine. But all three failed because Ayu was dragged so quickly.

Ayu managed to grab the roots of the trees around her. Withstanding the weight of his body stuck in the cliff of a deep enough ravine.

Malik's chest felt tight and heavy. His mind was out of control. Malik adjusts his breathing so that his emotions are controlled again. He must calm down in order to save Ayu.

"Miss, hold my hand. Take off the twig, miss. Let's grab my hand." Ayu scared. Only sobs were heard. Aldo could not reach Ayu, his hands were not up. Unless Ayu extends her hand.

"Come on, grab Brother Aldo's hand. Quick. Oi!." Jofan's voice made Ayu panic.

He even closed his eyes not daring to see what was beneath him.

Ayu's three best friends shouted for help to the others.

Ayu still closed her eyes. He's resigned if this is his destiny.

"Ayuna." Malik's voice slowly resuscitated Ayu. His eyes slowly opened.

"You remember how we met? I did a lot of things to get your attention. You're a very good woman, you fight for your dreams." Ayu realized, she should not give up just like that.

"You believe me?" Ayu looked up, on it were many people who loved her very much.

Malik stretched out his hand, his own chest rumbling in fear of his failed attempt and instead made Ayu wretched.

Malik knew Ayu was still hesitant to take her hand, she also must have been very afraid if her efforts did not succeed.

"Trust me. You remember my promise. I'll keep it up anytime." Malik tried to smile so Ayu was sure.

Ayu slowly extended her hand. The roots of the tree he held tightly together suddenly broke off. Malik grabbed Ayu's hand without considering her safety.

Fortunately Aldo and Jofan immediately grabbed Malik's leg and managed to hold him back. Slowly Jofan and Aldo pulled the body of Malik who hugged the body tightly Ayu.

Malik cried seeing Ayu unconscious in his arms. His body went limp, I don't know what would happen if Ayu really fell to the bottom of the abyss.

Aldo immediately took Malik and Ayu to a nearby hospital. Malik was silent, not a word came out of his mouth. He just looked at Ayu's face that was still unconscious.

Along the way Aldo was anxious to see the condition of Malik. He seemed to lose consciousness even though his eyes were open. Aldo spoke no response Malik.

Aldo is confused as to what to do now. The first step is to take them both to the hospital.

Malik is completely devastated, Aldo is heartless and forced to contact Rama to help Malik find his lost consciousness.
