Api di Bukit Menoreh Book 01 – Chapter 11
“The other Sadipa, Tall and big, has a long moustache. But one of his hands is disabled”.
“Good,” replied that voice “you really are people from Sendang Gabus, you really do know Sadipa. But why are you lying?”
Untara stiffened up. He had mentioned a name he knew and the characteristics of the person. But the man behind the darkness knew he was lying.
Suddenly Untara saw a shadow moving through the trees. he stepped back quickly, one step in front of his brother. His instincts led him to protect his shivering brother.
The man who emerged from the forest walked slowly toward them. His laugh sounded soft, but the sound of the laugh made their chest thump inside.
Agung Sedayu became increasingly frightened. But Untara kept his poker face like a rock.
“Who are you really?” asked that person.
Untara tried to observe that person face. Slowly he saw the hard lines. His body is not so high, but tight and st.u.r.dy. That man still walked a few steps forward.
“Ha,” he said after he stopped about three steps from Untara “two brave children”. What is your name?”.
“I"m a son from Sadipa” answered Untara.
Again, that man laughed “don"t lie” he said “Son from Sadipa that big tall man, have a long moustache and one hand is disabled, are not as courageous as you guys. I know them. I"m from Sendang Gabus.”
Untara was surprised to hear the information. Was the man standing in front of him a person from Sendang Gabus?
“If you are a person from Sedang Gabus, what is your name?” replied Untara.
“Guess who I am?” The man said with a laugh.
