I'm Baras
Chapter 22. The failed call

Mak Tum still stared nanar all over Rusli's house. "Hash, you guys!" mak Tum is upset.

The arrival of Lydia made Mak Tum a little relieved and received the leaves given by Lydia. Cleaning for a moment and staring at the fresh pandan leaves that were in his hands. "Is Rusli not here yet?" tanya Mak Tum is impatient.

"Not Mak," replied Lydia slowly.

Mak Tum looked back at the leaf he was holding. "Any," murmured Mak Tum slowly.

Lydia who heard Mak Tum's words was more curious, she got closer and stared at the leaves that Mak Tum was holding. "What do you see, find your husband!" mak Tum's Order.

However, not yet Lydia moved from her seat looks Rusli came tergopoh while carrying the barrel and flowers that Mak Tum messages. "Lidia take the water with water and put the flower in!" mak Tum's orders again.

Lydia immediately did what Mak Tum asked for, after all the requirements were met once again Mak Tum stared at Lydia and Rusli in turn, but only her net was staring intently at them.

"Take some white incense and bring it here" Mak Tum's pinta while burning charcoal in a small cup.

"Give me that incense," Mak Tum's pinta again.

Rusli and Lidia chose to sit beside Mak Tum, seeing this old woman begin to perform her rituals. Mak Tum began to sow incense without the aroma only the sound of the clapping of incense was heard for a moment and after that there was only a white smoke puff. Mak Tum's lips began to kamat kamit reciting the mantra while his hands stirred the water in a barrel three times and before long Mak Tum patted the floor on his massage three times using his feet.

Netra Mak Tum looked into the barrel and before long the voice of Mak Tum spoke. "Mayra ... Mayer ... Mayer ... "Call Mak Tum in a barrel.

The atmosphere that was once calm now turned to warm, the wind blew a little louder with a strange smell of fog. Lydia and Rusli who felt the changes in the room immediately sat inching closer and closer, their fear becoming more and more when they heard what Mak Tum said.

"What'sthis? cold, dark and ...." Mak Tum did not continue his words and looked back in a barrel.

"Hash. You guys!" yelled Mak Tum angry.

"Get out!" a loud sound was heard along with the thickening of Mak Tum's body from his seat. "Actober .... "Speak Mak Tum while rubbing the corner of his lips that slightly bleed with a strange-sounding cough.

"Mr .... "Shouted Lidia and Rusli hunting over and helping Mak Tum wake up.

"I, can't get through this place and you guys! What have you guys done? Some prevent me from calling Mayra two figures that hold Mayra's soul.one figure of the old woman and one ... Lydia, you and your husband should pick her up there" Mak Tum said at length and then stood up.

"Enter the pandan leaves in the thick water after that put the leaves on the isthmus. We wait for three days if the leaves are still fresh the sign your child can still be saved and if the leaves in three days dry and change color, I can't help your son" Mak Tum said.

Lidia and Rusli immediately stood up to Mak Tum's orders. "Wait, read this mantra," said Mak Tum as he whispered the mantra calling for Mayra.

Rusli and Lidia did all the instructions that Mak Tum ordered after putting pandan leaves on the isthmus, Lydia looked straight at her husband.

"Mas, does all this have anything to do with ...." Lidia did not continue her speech because her mouth was now firmly fixed in Rusli.

"Shut up! Never tell me about that!" rusli was angry.

Lidia who was surprised by her husband's attitude could only stare in disbelief, her netballed wide and shortly afterwards tried to take her husband's hand off her mouth. "But, Mas" said Lydia.

Rusli did not answer the question Lydia chose to go inside and sit near Mak Tum who was sitting cross-legged with all the silence that Mak Tum created. Rusli saw Mak Tum's body staggering from his seat as if he was trying to resist something attacking his body. Lydia who had been sitting at a little distance away was still staring at Mak Tum and her husband with a sad look until something made her subconsciously mention someone's name. "Sorry," muttered Lydia slowly full of regret.

However, Lydia's murmur was covered by Mak Tum's voice which suddenly turned respectful. "Well, I'll do that" he replied, bowing respectfully.

"Thank you for giving me permission" said Mak Tum slowly.

"Well, three days ahead," replied Mak Tum who was currently talking to no one.
