The Long Night of Amelia

The Long Night of Amelia
Chapter 6: The Bed


After walking far enough, it felt almost kilometers for Amelia, now she saw a narrow alley jutting behind the lined mansions. Slowly Amelia followed the man. Unexpectedly, the old man looked back suddenly. Fortunately, he kept his distance from the man and he was behind a large tree on the side of the road. Amelia stroked her chest. The big tree is his savior! If there is no tree, then the lookout for the old man is over. It must have been found out!


The man looked suspicious with his movements. It was like making sure no one was following him.


Then he continued his journey. Entering that narrow alley. Amelia was still standing behind the big tree.Sit was silent for a moment, times the man suddenly turned back and looked at her. After taking a deep breath and thinking that the old man had walked a long way into the narrow alley, Amelia came out from behind a large tree and followed him back.


Now Amelia has been in front of the narrow alley. He glanced for a moment making sure the old man was far from his sight.


And now he saw the old man looked like he wasn't there. He hurriedly walked quickly in the narrow alley that only a motorbike could pass. Not far away at the end of the alley he saw a row of semi-permanent houses. Like a slum. He glanced behind the wall. Looking for where the old man went.


Till....


He saw the old man in several houses from Amelia who was standing behind the wall of the end of the alley. It seems to be her home, thought Amelia. He saw the man knocking on the door.


Amelia was still silent thinking behind the wall of the end of the alley. What should he do ?Should he come into that house ? But what if the old man asked him how he got here ? It could be discovered that he was following her home. Shame on him! Lacking a job following someone she just met.who even Amelia doesn't know her name ! But Amelia was curious about the old man. His intuition gave a big signal that there was something strange about this man he met.


Huh....!! Damnit damnit!What should he do ? he can not stay there for long.who is thought that the citizens there are bad people who are stalking ?


Amelia looked around her. The settlement was clearly a narrow slum. Some houses even some of the roof is not using tile, but zinc. It looks like a bed. The walls are partially woven bamboo walls. This slum area looks pretty cool. In addition to being located in a narrow gang, as if this settlement is covered by grand mansions with towering high walls. Until such a disgrace is swallowed among the magnificent hedonities of the metropolis.


Amelia finally decided to try walking through the old man's house. He wondered how his house was. Amelia walked slowly. Until just as he was standing next to the old man's house, he could see his house clearly. A simple house. The walls are of brick with light green paint. There is a small glass window that is now covered in gordyn. The door is made of simple wood that has been samplak in some parts with a dark brown color. The roof of the house is covered with zinc that are stacked tightly together.The house also looks like it is looked/elevated from the street. There are 2 staircases in front of the entrance. Maybe because if large rains continue to hit, the area here is also affected by flooding. This can be seen from the houses around the slums seem to have the same condition as the house of this old man. Where the house is higher than the street. Some houses even have 2 floors.


Amelia decided to pass the old man's house. He wanted to know the area around there first. Whether at the end of the narrow alleyway it was dead-end or translucent to somewhere. Amelia also walked while looking left and right in the area ...
