Doni's out of the bathroom. He refocused on his laptop. Sometimes he looks at me.
I who have not been able to sleep do not want to show my anxiety. Let Doni focus on his work. Because usually if Doni is focused means his work is a lot.
"You haven't slept?" ask Doni.
"Not sleepy."
"Sleep. It's night" said Doni.
"Yes. You also sleep dong. Tomorrow's bad luck."
"Easy. Later if I sleep for sure I sleep" replied Doni and returned seriously with his laptop.
I looked again at the door. There's nothing. Why didn't the shadow appear when Doni was around?
I tried to close my eyes before Doni fell asleep. But it's hard to break.
I saw the clock in my hape. It's been almost two o'clock in the night. Doni's been yawning and closing his laptop.
Doni looked at me who was still literate.
"Why not sleep? It's almost morning."
"Yes, it's going to sleep." I closed my eyes. When I opened my eyes again, Doni was already curled up on the sofa. He's like cold. I want to feel like covering it. But what is my day. I can't get out of bed.
Suddenly the shadow came again. The shadow seemed to be staring at me. I turned my eyes away.
But my eyes cannot be compromised. I looked back at that door. The shadow is still there.
My heart is beating so hard. Cold sweat was felt all over my body.
"Don! Donny!" Many times I tried calling but Doni didn't listen. I even heard his snoring.
I grabbed my hape. I activated the camera. And take a picture of that black shadow.
As soon as my camera went on and I was ready to shoot towards the door, the shadow disappeared.
Where's she? No sound of footsteps. Although the distance between my bed and the door is a bit far, but there should be the sound of footsteps, because it is midnight and very quiet.
I tried to close my eyes. As much as possible I would have. I don't know how long I forced my eyes to close.
Until I heard the sound of footsteps far away. Maybe out there.
Suddenly the door to my room opened slowly. I opened my eyes a little. Nothing seen yet.
I glanced at Doni even though my eyes weren't completely open. Doni was still snuggling comfortably. His snoring voice was getting louder. Maybe because the atmosphere is getting quieter.
My bedroom door opened a little. I'm waiting for who's coming in. But it's invisible.
I grabbed a button to call the nurse. With one hand I pushed the button. But neither did his voice sound. I even felt the button was stuck.
The door opened a little more. With all my might I tried to make a sound.
"Who is that?" But my voice seemed to be stuck in my throat. And what my ears heard was very slow.
I sharpened my vision. The door stopped no longer moving.
"Don! Donny!" I tried to yell at Doni. But the sound coming out of my throat was very small.
I wanted to throw the phone I was holding towards Doni to wake up. But I was thinking, if it doesn't matter. Doni will wake up. But what if it doesn't happen? Even my own has been destroyed.
The door rattled again. Open a little more. This time the handle went down. It means someone is moving it. It is impossible that a door handle that looks very strong can go down on its own.
"Who is that?" I came back screaming. But like before, what came out was just a very slow voice. Maybe I'm the only one who heard it.
My heart is beating faster. Cold sweat completely flooded my body.
A sreekk!
The door is wide open. My eyes are wide open too. The black shadow walked over to me.
I looked at him in a supine position. His face was covered in a black mask. His head was also covered in the head covering of the jacket he was wearing.
He kept getting closer. I held my breath. Yeah, my breath stopped. My throat feels dry.
"Who are you?" I shouted, even with a voice that was hard to hear.
He raised both of his hands wrapped in black gloves.
"You want what, you?" I keep trying to make a sound.
Both of his hands were getting closer to me. Towards my neck.
I imagined my neck would break if he touched it. Especially to pull it.
Both hands grabbed my jaw. My head is raised up.
He choked my jaw firmly. I try to move both my hands and my feet. But it's hard. Even the sound of my falling hape.
Maybe it broke into pieces. I tried to scream even though my neck was suffocating.
"Aakhch...!"
My legs tried to kick towards him, but it was hard to get blocked by the blanket that wrapped around my body.
My hand I raised and.bugh! He's not the one who got hit by me. But my hand fell on the edge of the bed. I tried to scream again.
"Aakhchh...!"
Suddenly the shadow disappeared and changed the body of Doni who was already standing beside my bed.
"andr! Aryan! Wake up!"
I feel Doni patting my cheek. I opened my eyes. This time I really opened my eyes and saw Doni who was panicking.
"andr! Wake up!" Doni kept patting me on the cheek. I can feel it.
Doni kept calling me and asking me to get up. I feel like I have opened my eyes. But why did Doni still wake me up.
I tried to raise my hand to reach Doni. But my hands are heavy. Moreover, the right hand that had fallen hit the iron on the side of the bed. Feels very sick.
I asked myself. Am I still alive? Or is he dead?
Why can't Doni see me opening my eyes? Why are my hands and feet so hard to move?
And why is there no sound coming out of my mouth?
I tried to move my head. Even more incapable. Because my neck is still with a buffer.
And I feel that buffer as if it's holding me.
"Don! Donny!" My voice seemed to be stuck in my throat. But my ears can still hear Doni's call.
Even when some nurses came, I could still hear the sound of their footsteps.
I could see them wearing white uniforms. I also still see the color of the shirt Doni wore.
Doni kept calling my name. Suddenly my vision blurred. My hearing faded when I saw the two nurses injecting liquid into the infusion tube attached to my palm.
I feel like my body is weak. And my world is dark.
Maybe I'm dead. Maybe an angel was taking me to the sky.
Because what I saw then was pure white around me. There's no bulkhead. Just the white color where I floated.
I don't know how long I've been there. I'm like I'm not tired of continuing to drift. But alone.
Until one day, I felt like I could move my fingers again. Then I could raise my hand and move my legs again.
"andr! Are you conscious?" I can recognize his voice. That's Doni's voice. And also Sarah's voice called me.
I opened my eyes slowly. No more white places without a bulkhead. There was a white wall with a television attached to it.
There's Doni, Sarah and Roni. There were also two nurses I still recognized in his face.
Spontaneously I glanced towards the door when the corner of my eye caught a black shadow.
"Ohhhhkk...!"
