One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trapped in a negotiation with a hooligan group for bringin back a bicycle of Sam (USA) and Mariane (French), two girls who travelling to Pontianak by bicycle. They lost one of their bicycle and some stuffs before arrive at my home. We called police and colleagues to get information about the bicycle and how to get it back. Then, a miracle happened in our life which friend of my friend has a friend who has friend who live in a “Banned Area” and stole Sam's bicycle. Lots of unexpected things occured, such we had lies to the police that we dont know the bicycle (becasue we had reported before at the day the bicycle was stolen), making friends with the hooligan group for negotiating, meet new friends who help me found the bicycle and proving the power of connection. Cry, Laugh, stressful because the hooligan threatening ur life, surprise because the miracles happened, arguing how to get the win win solutions. And the end, they agreed to give back the bicycle (only 5 in the world!!!) but not the ipad, dollars, and other stuffs. But for us, it is fine because we want to the tragedy end!!
