I got to the house right now. My dad opened the door, then closed it back. Me and Idar rested for a while on the living room couch.
"Have you finished your business?" Ask my father who is standing. Me and Idar answered by shaking my head.
"Sister Luis, do we have to go to the hospital to make sure?" Ask Idar in a weak voice.
"Of course, I won't be at the Princess again if the problem is over." I said I changed my position by lying down.
Me and Idar were still on the living room couch, suddenly there was someone knocking on the door. It sounded loud, even my father who was watching headed straight to the living room.
"Who?" I screamed that didn't move at all.
"It's me, Mr. Mus." He shouted from outside.
Mr. Mus, the neighbor of the deceased Mr. Imam. But why did he come these nights.
My father opened the door, Mr. Mus entered with a panicked face. He told my father to close the door and lock it.
"What's up, Mr. Mus. Why do you look panicked?" Ask dad. Me and Idar fixed my position. Sit down and stare at Mr. Mus's panicked face.
"There's a kuntilanak, get into Mr. Malik's house." Said Mr. Mus. Mr. Malik, the man who was once told to open the pocong rope of the priest.
"Should it?" Ask dad.
"Let me sit down first. Let me explain what it's like." Said Mr. Mus sitting on the sofa. He sighed many times, before opening his mouth to speak.
"So, when I came home from the mosque, I saw a woman wearing all-white clothes in front of the door of Mr. Malik's house. I didn't think about it. Probably Mr. Malik's guest. But it was his laughing voice that made me look back. I just realized, if he's kuntilanak. Mr. Malik's door is open. I knocked all the houses, but no one answered or opened the doors. I came here." Mr. Mus said at length.
"Well, I checked Mr. Malik at his house." My orders. Hearing Mr. Mus's words, I became worried about Mr. Malik's family.
"Don't go there. Long ago, when me and the Imam saw a kuntilanak enter the house of the people, we both approached him. Even the priest who died the next morning." Said Mr. Mus who refused.
I was confused what to do. Helping wrong, let wrong too.
"So Luis, we go to sleep. Bezok we find out at Malik's house. Hopefully, they're okay." Said Idar who walked into the room.
A few minutes later, Idar came back to me.
"Why returned? He said he'd sleep." My insinuation.
"Fear alone in the room. If it comes, how?"
"Let's say, you I want me to go. No need to bring all kuntilanak," I said.
"So how is this Mr Mus, whether we go to Mr Malik's house or not?" Ask dad.
"Let me go home, Mr. Tamrin. I'm afraid to walk alone, afraid the stalk will follow." Whine Mr. Mus.
"Luis, I'll take Mus first. You wait here, lock the door and don't come out until you come." Father's orders.
Me and Idar closed the door, then sat on the couch waiting for my father to come home.
"Sir, there's just kuntilanak. The time he stopped by the residents' house, and when he stopped by, one of the families would definitely die. Suspicious not brother?" Said Idar sitting near me. His body flanked me with this sofa.
"Yes, weirdo. It seemed, he had indeed known his next target. Did someone order it?" My reply.
"Think, brother Luis. Solving the mystery of the death of the Princess, is much easier than our haunted village. I don't know who did it, but he's pretty shady about hiding himself." Obviously Idar.
"Your brain tumbens are watered down. After eating tomatoes?" I said kidding.
Idar looks upset, suddenly turns off the lights. Me and Idar could only see darkness everywhere. The knocking from the door surprised me. Who knocks on the door when the lights are off. Idar started to hug me, his body shaking by itself.
"I'm suddenly goosebumps, Luis." Say Idar slowly.
The sound of knocking was heard back, but it was not human-like. It was as if he was hitting the door of my house. I want to step up, try to check it out. But I expressed my intention. There is no light in front of the house. Is it possible just a prankster?
"Open the door!" His order. Me and Idar hugged each other tightly. After the sound of knocking on the door, the scream of a woman from outside scared me.
"I know you're inside. Help me.." he shouted with the sound of a dog roaring.
"Ask Luis, who is he?" The whisper of Idar in my ear.
"Si.si..who?" I screamed with my mouth shaking.
"I'm Marni, Luis. I'm Marni, please open the door. I was afraid to be alone outside" said the man, who confessed to Marni.
"You're dead, your body has been found. What did you come here for?" I screamed in the darkness.
Marni did not say, I and Idar raised my head in surprise. Suddenly, Marnie left.
Tak...
The sound of someone patting a window near the living room. Marni's face was stuck in the window. I and Idar, who were looking in that direction, were shocked and frightened. I and Idar ran away from the window that was near. Suddenly, the lights went live. Marni's face on the window, no longer there.
"Damn it, Marni scared me. I have found his body. Why can't he calm down?" I asked who was stroking my chest. My heart was still beating so fast, as if it wanted to jump.
"It's all dad's fault, don't close the window curtain. Instead of letting it roll, Marni showed her beautiful face at the window." Said Idar who was standing by the wall.
"Sir Luis, close the window. Marni can come again" said Idar who turned to me.
"You told your sister?"
"Yes. Luis is bravest between the two of us. Quick brother," Idar ordered that pushed me forward to the window.
"If Marni was immediately seen, how? My heart can be broken." I said back off.
"Sister Luis. Come on, Marni won't come again." Idar.
I stepped up, thinking that Marni would never come again. Staying one step away from the window, a knocking sound from outside was heard. I hurried back.
"Luis, open the door. It's dad" cried my dad.
I looked towards the window, to be sure. The first I saw, his feet were on the floor. Then I saw the clothes my father was wearing. I'm afraid Marni could have come in my father's form.
"Faith," I said, giving Idar the code to open the door.
"Dad, why so long. I'm afraid here" said Idar who immediately complained.
"Sorry, Mus's father and sir stopped at Malik's house. Mr. Malik's wife, dead." My father said to me, which surprised me.
"Innalillahiwainnailahirajiun," said I who shut my mouth.
"Why can you, Dad? Is it because of the flakes?" Ask Idar.
"There's something strange, Luis. It seems like there are people who want to destroy us." My father said that made me not understand.
"What does that mean, dad?"
"In the window of Mr. Malik's house, your name is written. You're the culprit of trouble in this village." My father said to me, which surprised me.
Who is the one who did it? And for what?
