Angker Village
My Brother's Healing

"Mom, yeah, how come idar's feet have blood?" I'm the one who doesn't believe what I see.

"Son, what did uztad say?" ask grandma.

"I said mom, idar got mistargeted. He wanted to hook me, even my son, who was hit" said my father grievingly.

"do you know who it is?" ask my grandmother back.

"Who else if he wasn't Grandma, all this time, I've been patient. My wife Almarhuma has been very kind to her, but she still takes her life,"

"I have absolutely no idea what my son is, what he really wants, yesterday I gave him a rice field to take care of" my grandmother said with a sad look.

"Well, when will I walk again?" I'm the one who cut my father's conversation with grandma.

"We will see, if there is no change, I will have to go back to the other side of the village" said the hopeful father.

"Sorry om, luis, and grandma. Not that it's disrespectful, it's disrupting family talk, but I have to tell you something important" Rian said politely.

"What's rian, just tell me, you don't have to be shy?" ask dad.

"Look, if you go to the opposite village, don't call me again, I really don't want to go there anymore" said Rian with a frightened expression.

"Huh, you're afraid it turns out," I said trying to hold back a laugh.

"Not scared, I'm right more than scared,"

"Yes rian, thank you very much, you drove me yesterday. ngomon-ngomon, do not see my bike in front?"

"Oh, that's om, my bike missed. Yesterday was scared because in kuntilanak distance,"

"After you grab your bike, afraid someone will pick it up later,"

"But in accompanied by om, because I was afraid to be alone," said Rian while pleading.

"Obviously, but if you dare to go alone, it doesn't matter" replied my father.

"No-no om, I won't go, if not accompanied," said Rian quickly as he shook his head.

As we chatted together, a car stopped in front of Rian's house. Oh, his family's here.

"Om, luis, and grandma, I'll excuse you. My family has come home" said Rian, kissing my grandmother and father's hands. He also reached out to me, I saw him so astonished.

"Rian, you want to kiss Luis' hand too?" asked my father, Rian was embarrassed. Soon he ran out without saying anything.

"She may have forgotten" said the grandmother with a smile.

"Sister, I'm a laper" said Idar who woke up from his sleep. Quickly, I ran to the kitchen to get food.

"It's the deck, don't forget, spend it" I said, offering a plate of food.

"The medicine is also drunk" said my grandmother, pouring water under my father.

"Miss, bezok am I cured? bezok me a test," said my sister still looking weak.

"Patience well deck, I pray, may bezok be healed," I said giving hope to my sister.

For now, I can only calm him down. A mother, she left us all. I, as the oldest child, was forced to take over the mother's job. Unwilling and forced, all I have to do.

"Yes, hopefully," said my grandmother.

My grandmother took care of my sister, while I washed the clothes and dried them. In the sun, I felt someone standing behind me. When I looked, I found no one.

"Maybe it's just my feeling" I muttered, dismissing the bad stuff.

The sound of footsteps, clearly heard in my ears. I kept quiet, trying to hear it back.

Tak..Tak...Tak...

His voice was so clear I heard, I sighed. Maybe someone is pestering me. But looking back, there was blood. I saw it, was shocked.

"Blood, whose blood is this?" my lot is full of wonder.
