BAIDER (ENGLISH VERSION)

I watched the height of the mountain. The nervousness in my chest has not gone away yet. I was scared, they showed me their belongings. I shudder at the sight, guns, bows, knives, swords, and various other killing tools. They explained that I was lucky if I couldn’t meet them on the road but said it was impossible because they were scattered. They look at me sharply. None of my own simply caressed my stomach. This is the last one and hopefully, I will succeed.

“This is our family, you should deal with it. We never force you to be with us but you insist to be one of our family,” Ariya said seriously and cocked the shotgun.

I was nervous, I swallowed my saliva but I didn’t want them to notice it. Lauressa held a sword but when she looked at me it wasn’t that sharp. Lucio gathered a knife, Semon grabbed an arrow, Anton also grabbed a sword. They took up their instrument to kill, one by one. Some of the gadgets, I ​can’t name what they were. I saw Resttan unconsciously take a gun. He was also included.

“Let’s get started,” Ariya said and handed me the little clock. “In thirty minutes you will enter the forest. Remember it is forbidden to disobey.”

Resttan looked at me first, I saw the concern on his face but he didn’t speak. Miraculously when Lauressa looked at me she nodded. It was as if she was telling me to be careful but he didn’t say anything. I can survive because I miss him. I looked up at the mountain.

I stood up straight and got ready. I put on my mask, put the sleeping powder in my pocket, and looked up the mountain again. There is no guarantee that I will reach you, but I believe I love you and that will save me, us, and your child.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

I looked at the weapons they left behind. They said I could take at least some but I made sure I didn’t kill anyone in their clan because the punishment was still death. I can hurt them but I can’t kill them. They will really chase me to kill, they will block me from climbing the top of the mountain. Either way, I am no longer afraid. I know I will not die because … my love is true and pure.

When the clock rang I nervously entered the forest. I didn’t even see an arrow fly, I dodged it but it touched my arm. I saw Semon holding a bow. He was about to fly another arrow to hurt me but I ran the distance between the two of us. I quickly grabbed his bow and repulsed it. He fought me, we wrestled, I simply grabbed the powder but I couldn’t…

We are living in a world where every event is unexpected. We laugh now then tomorrow cry. We do not control everything. Even the people we love, sometimes we passed by the school where they were, but we could not see them. We see things and an invisible one.

What is the purpose of life again? To know your purpose. Why do you live here in this harsh world? Why do you need to suffer to achieve your dream? Why do you chase someone who does not love us?

Maybe they were, but they did not tell.

I am just an extra ordinary girl. I have a simple life and I am just thinking about achieving my dream. Studying well is my first and always choice, not until he came.

“You’ll be afraid of the Baiders first before death.” He scratched his forehead. “You could die in Patunay! We can never get married!” He added that it was obvious in his actions that he was very worried and anxious. My tears were already dripping because my chest was already hurting from the pain.

Is that Patunay that hard? Why did he just say that now?

That’s why he didn’t invite me to get married even though we were both professionals. That’s why for him he is content that we are just together. I want to see the light with him. I want to be with him forever.

Mountain is an elevated portion of the land, but for me, it is the most dangerous place ever. It will teach you everything you need to learn in life. Every choice you make is equal to the consequence or win. Every smile you have may not be forever, but the love you have may still even after death or to the next life if that is possible. Showing your strengths are always necessary, especially when you need to fight for your love once.

If you love someone, you don’t know him right away. There are many secrets you don’t know that you will suddenly find out when you have entered his life. About the family, he had his attitude, and personality. Why do we suddenly fall in love with the most rugged person in this world? We have another choice, our friend who has a strong affection for us, but why? Have you ever wondered why? Of all people?

Maybe love has a plan for us. Cupid gave this kind of perfection of affection to see our worth, to really see the purpose of why we are here on the Earth. Let me tell you that no love story has a happy ending because the destination of all is death. Would you be happy if someone said goodbye? Of course not. I am trying to say is that we can look for the path that will make us happy even if we have to sacrifice. Love is not always happy because if you do not feel the pain and struggle it is not true love. It is always twins with imperfections because no story is perfect.

What is love anyway if you do not choose the person you love? Patunay? What is Patunay? Their family tradition and culture. Whatever it is, I will prove to them that my love for him is real and pure.

Even death cannot stop my love.
