Angker Village
The Rotting Corpse

Me and Fani, look at the porch. There was no one, but the sound of falling that we heard was so loud.

"Truly strange, I heard clearly the sound of falling objects," I said in surprise.

A piece of paper stuck at my door. Me and Fani took it and read it. The writing is like chicken claws, which no one writes. The guy who wrote it, it's really a prank.

[YOU MUST DIE]

I was surprised when I read it, what does this writing mean. It couldn't have been, if it had led to my family. All this time, no one's ever terrorized me like this.

"Luis, do you have any enemies?" ask fani. I just shook my head.

"Luis, this can't be allowed. That guy, he's so desperate. If your sister sees it, she will definitely think" said fani who stunned me.

If the idar were to read it, he would probably be scared. Yesterday, he couldn't sleep thinking about it.

"True, just yesterday, my sister couldn't sleep thinking about it,"

"Yesterday, were you in terror at night?" ask fani seriously.

I'm disturbing, terror at night, much scarier.

"Luis, you can't stay silent. If he doesn't find his people, he'll come every day to terrorize you. It's a human treatment, not a ghost or something. Ghosts can't possibly write messages like this,"

"Yes, today I will investigate" I said after a long thought. What Fani said, is true.

After the fani came home, it was Rian's turn to come to my house. I opened the door lazily.

"What's wrong?"

"It's so sweet, like I don't like it coming. I brought you bread, it's from my mother" said Rian, offering me a bag of bread.

"Thank you" I said with a smile.

"Luis, for an afternoon make a friend of me to the waterfall?" ranya rian is back.

"Yes so. But I'm going to do it first,"

"It's okay. I'll wait," looks Rian's face with pleasure.

Rian did not know, the waterfall he meant had no effect at all. He would be surprised if he went there.

I was watching Tivi, my father and my sister coming together.

"Son, would you like to go to the service?' ask idar who is sitting watching near me.

"Yes,"

"I heard brother, the corpse of the wife of Mr. Ahmad gives off an unpleasant smell. And many I have," said Idar with disdain.

"Can't you?"

"Not knowing either. Many of my friends said,"

"Dad you want to go to worship?"

"Hemm"

"I'm coming, yes" I said as I ran into the room changing clothes.

Now, I'm in front of Ahmad's house. The yellow flag is welcoming us. I entered the house bowed, withstanding the unpleasant smell. Like a stench.

"Ana, have you been here a long time?" ask and sit near Anna.

"Oh, you're late. The body of the deceased is already in the grave," said Ana.

"Ana, this unpleasant smell came from a corpse?" ask me while whispering.

"Yes, it's been bathed twice, but the smell doesn't go away."

"You can, when I was sick yesterday, I came to pick him up. There is no smell like this" I said in surprise.

"Of course, the new smell comes when you bathe. The more you bathe, the more you smell,"

"It's weird too, there must be something wrong" I said as I glanced at the corpse not far from me.

Many black spots were stuck to his shroud. It's like a flea, I saw him vomit. The lice are still moving.

"Ana, if they don't clean their hair, there's still a lot of ticks attached," I said, throwing my face away, not being able to see it for much longer.

"Everything is cleaned, his hair has also been given shampoo. Even one bottle of shampoo is gone,"

"It's the first time, there's an event like this." I muttered in my heart.

It's already half an hour, the funeral can't be done yet. I was already feeling uneasy, it should have been finished from the moment the funeral was over.

"Luis, you're feeling something weird, aren't you?" whiskey ana.

"How's the weird?"

"Try looking around. It's quiet, but I'm like hearing the intelligence in this house,"

I try to stay quiet and focus on listening. It turned out to be true, many voices laughed cheerfully. There were also many footsteps. But, here, there was no laughing person, which was only sadness in sight.

"Right, I can hear it too" said I who looked at each other.

Suddenly, my father came and told me to go home. My father's face was so panicked, he looked sweaty. I became stubborn, my father only said to go home soon. Not explaining anything else, even if I asked.

On the way, my neighbor's mother came to me.

"Luis, hurry up and go to your grandmother's. He fainted," said Ani's mother in a rasp.

So this is why my dad told me to go home. My grandmother is fainting, I don't know what caused it. My footsteps, the faster. My father was silent until we finally got to Grandma's house. A loud sound sounded in my ear. I accelerated my feet to see my grandmother's condition.

Just at the door, my idol came holding me. My heart stopped beating, when I saw my grandmother lying on the bed.
