Missing In Silence
He joked with you.

The air of the Totoro mountains is very cool. Sakura also came down from the taxi when she saw Kenzi walking to the edge of the road below which the green valley and in front of him was plastered with the beautiful Totoro mountains.

Fumiko then thought maybe in this area there is cheap accommodation. Taking his wallet from Fumiko's bag, he thought it must be expensive, because the mileage had exceeded 100 kilometers.

"Hopefully enough money to pay the taxi fare and rent a room for a break tonight!" Fumiko said while counting the money in her wallet.

The day was getting late, Fumiko was anxious because as far as the eyes could see there was no inn.

"ここに旅館はありますか？

Koko ni ryokan wa arimasu?"

(is there an inn here sir) Ask Fumiko to the taxi driver.

"私の記憶では、細い道を入るとすぐに旅館があったと記憶しています"。

"Watashi no kiokude wa, hosoi michi o hairu to sugu ni ryokan ga atta to kioku shite imasu".

(as I recall, you just go into the small road, you can see an inn) replied the driver while pointing the direction.

"ありがとう、先生、これがタクシー料金です!"

"Arigato, sensei, kore ga takushi ryokindesu!"

(thank you sir, this is the taxi fare) Fumiko said as she gave money to the taxi driver.

Sakura and Kenzi look happy to see the amazing natural scenery.

Sakura thought why the taxi driver did not want to deliver to the Totoro mountains, but if you look from a distance the place is very beautiful.

"Why did the taxi driver seem to be afraid when you asked to be transported to the Totoro Mountains?" Sakura asked Kenzi.

Kenzi who already knew the secret of the Totoro mountains from his Tantenya story, just smiled at Sakura while enjoying the natural scenery.

"Kenzi, asked even smiles doang, iihh, nyebelin!" Sakura commented on Kenzi's smiling attitude from earlier.

" That's because he's happy Sakura again!" Fumiko approached Sakura and smiled.

Fumiko stood up while embracing Sakura and Kenzi while looking forward to enjoying the beauty of nature.

"Tante, why is the cab driver being told to leave, when he can take us there!" Sakura said as she pointed towards the Totoro mountains.

" What the hell is the driver afraid of, it's most just trees, it's what's in it!" Sakura said annoyed at imagining that she had to walk to the Totoro mountains.

" maybe there's a dinosaur, hahaha...!" Kenzi replied in response to Sakura's rant.

"rich jurasic park aja, uh but exciting to know that in the mountains there are actually dinosaurs, hehehe..!" Sakura said fantasizing.

"hahaha.there-there are you guys!" Fumiko.

Fumiko then continued the journey to be able to immediately find the inn that was shown by the taxi driver.

"let's go on, we'll go on, it'll be dark!" Fumiko invites Sakura and Kenzi to continue the journey.

Sakura looks at Kenzi and starts fiddling with Kenzi's cheeks.

"whatever's on your cheek, tuh!" Sakura joked with Kenzi as she walked closer to Fumiko.

Kenzi who was shocked and took it seriously, immediately tried to find out what was really on his cheek.

" what's on my cheek, what's wrong, what's wrong?" Ask Kenzi who is not aware that Sakura is being bullied.

Kenzi immediately caught up with Sakura and walked beside her.

"uh, look, what's on my cheek, Sakura?" Ask Kenzi again who is curious.

Sakura laughed at Kenzi who was still rubbing her cheeks with her hands.

Fumiko who heard them, just smiled as she walked down the small path towards the trees.

Sakura who was jailing started again trying to prank Kenzi.

"Here I tell you, here's a spit!" Sakura asked Kenzi to bring her cheeks closer.

Innocent Kenzi unsuspectingly approached Sakura.

" where's your cheek, here I tell you!" Sakura.

Kenzi approached and pointed his left cheek at Sakura.

" Did you see, what's on my cheek?" Kenzi asked as he brought his cheek closer.

Sakura pinched Kenzi's cheek hard.

" There's a pinch on me, here!" Sakura replied then laughed after pinching Kenzi's cheek loudly. "hahaha..!" Sakura runs after Fumiko.

Kenzi was shocked, and was in pain because his cheeks were pinched to a reddening.

" it's a real bitch to be a girl!" Kenzi said as he ran after Sakura.

Sakura who saw Kenzi immediately hid behind Fumiko's body.

" eeehhh Sakura again what the hell, Kenzi !" Said Fumida who was surrounded by Sakura and Kenzi who were joking with each other.

Fumiko let out a laugh, Sakura and Kenzi also laughed in jest.

" hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..!" Fumiko.

They walked down the path, into the shady trees.

Then Fumiko stopped walking, until she was at the end of this path.

Sakura and Kenzi stopped their steps.

It looks like a big house. The building looks very old but sturdy. Like it has not been in human habitation for years.

Many shrubs that creep on the walls of the house building. Sakura is horrified and thinks that this house is a haunted house.

Kenzi was also goosebumps as he tried to enter and started to open the large door in front of him.

Fumiko stood beside Kenzi and Sakura hid behind Kenzi.

They entered slowly, very carefully.

Their hearts were pounding like they were entering a haunted cave.

" hallloo.why is anyone here!" scream Fumiko. Kenzi and Sakura turned around to look around the house.

Fumiko's voice echoed in the living room where the ceiling was very high and there was an antique chandelier that was dusty.

"Whose house is it, so big, like a palace!" Sakura said as she saw some paintings on the wall.

Kenzi then began to realize from some of the paintings he had seen, like he had seen them.

" I'm like I've seen, this painted face, but where are ya ?" thought Kenzi.

Fumiko is convinced that the house is empty, she is looking for a room that might be used to rest tonight.

Sakura walked deep inside. When Sakura opened a large door, there were thousands of books lined up neatly on shelves lined up to towering heights.

"Waaawww....Lots of books!"sakura cried out in amazement at what she saw.

Kenzi who heard Sakura's cry immediately ran over, worrying about Sakura.

"You where Sakura is...Sakura?" Kenzi asked as he shouted calling and looking for Sakura.

" I'm here Kenzi!" Sakura replied as she looked through the books from the shelf in front of her.

Sakura then tried to reach for the book that had a red cover, the book was stored too high, Sakura was curious, finally she tiptoed while extending her hand even further up.

"Ah.. I got it!" Said Sakura who managed to pull the red-coated book, But it turns out the books next to her were also interested and suddenly the books fell.

"aaaaa....!" yell Sakura

Kenzi who had just entered the room saw the books that Sakura reached began to move and wanted to fall on Sakura.

Kenzi quickly ran towards Sakura. Kenzi reflexively hugged Sakura's tiny body protecting her.

"brakkk.kud!" the books fell right on Kenzi's back.

Kenzi bit his lip withstanding the pain of his back being hit by the book.

Sakura, who is closed for fear of being hit by a book, does not know that Kenzi is running towards her and protecting her.

The warm feeling of Kenzi's body embracing her, resuscitated Sakura.

Sakura started to open her eyes, she was surprised to find that Kenzi was already by her side.

Kenzi who grimaced in pain then said:

"Are you okay Sakura?" Ask Kenzi.

" Kenzi....I'm fine, but you're Kenzi.you must be in pain!" Sakura answered that directly rubbed gently on Kenzi's back.

Kenzi felt comfortable on his back. Then looked at Sakura gently.

Kenzi pinned Sakura's hair slightly covering her face.

"other times be careful ". Kenzi looked at Sakura affectionately.

Sakura's heart beats rapidly, as Kenzi's hand gently touches her hair.
