"Ar, wake up." Sarah wakes me. I squirm the body.
After opening my eyes, I saw Sarah was tidy. I don't know who he's wearing.
"Bring and then we go home" said Sarah.
I narrowed my eyes that were not yet on a hundred percent.
"Why? You want to sleep here again?"
I'm shaking. Then get off my bed.
Sarah gave me a plastic bag.
"What is this, Sar?" I saw the plastic.
"The towels, t-shirts and kayak trousers I wear. There's also an inner garment, but it may not fit the size." Sarah explained the contents of the crackle bag I was carrying.
"Who bought it?"
"Roni with Doni. They went to the market early this morning."
Hearing the word market, I looked again at the contents of the plastic bag. That's not. I have to wear my dirty clothes. And definitely not washed.
I went into a small bathroom, but it was pretty clean. Because this is at Puskesmas. Must have kept her clean.
Finish my bath that already feels fresh, looking for the whereabouts of my friends. Because in my room, they weren't there.
"Sorry, Sir. You see my friends?"
I just went to a cleaning service, Doni has arrived.
"Are you ready, Ar?" I'm nodding.
"Let's have breakfast first. Sarah's just like Roni's waiting at the front stall."
Then Doni took the dirty clothes I put in the plastic bag, out of my hand.
Doni took her, I followed Doni's steps.
"I put this in the car." Said Doni then walked towards his car in front of Puskesmas.
"That's right there." Doni pointed at a simple food stall.
I followed Doni there. The shop is still quiet. Probably because it was too early.
"What do you want to eat, Ar?" asked Sarah to welcome me.
"What aja, deh. The important thing is to be full." answered me who was holding back hunger from last night.
The events of yesterday afternoon drained all my energy.
"Mom. Rice pack what is important to be full. Tuh, the order of the mother who wears a big t-shirt." said Sarah to the owner of the stall while her hands pointed at me.
I glared at Sarah. My three friends laughed. Sarah seemed to forget last night.
Before long, the shop owner's mother gave Sarah an order for me.
"Please, Ma'am. Sorry there's just this." The shop owner's mother gave him a plate full of rice and a glass of warm tea.
Rice pecel plus omelet plus tempe chips.
"Yes, Mom. Thank ye. This is very special ma'am." said I and immediately ate my advice.
The mother smiled at me like a starving person looking at a pecel rice.
"Pray first, woy. Just eat!" sarah teased me. I'm still very hungry let alone see the food that tempts the taste, no matter Sarah.
"Slowly eating, Ar. Later sprains." said Doni who sat next to me while drinking coffee.
"You don't eat, Don?"
"Udah. Coming home from buying your clothes, I nemenin Roni eat." said Doni.
"Have a son! I'm the one who wants you to eat because you're starving!" sahut Roni who heard my conversation with Doni.
And they fuss about eating like a kid. Timpali by Sarah who even homp-ngomporin. Funny the three of them if they're kidding.
One another no one wants to lose. What was the thrill when they went to college?
I just look at it while occasionally laughing. I never had any of their friends.
But once Doni was a quiet child in school. Not much to say let alone joke about like now.
Doni the accomplished boy. And quite popular in school. Until many jealous girl friends see my closeness to Doni.
Some even antagonize me. But Doni was always protecting me, every gank of friends who were hostile to me were about to bully me.
Doni's attitude never changed for me. Now there are a lot of things that Doni did to protect me.
"Have you finished eating?" ask Doni. I'm nodding.
"You wait here first. I'm gonna go get a car. We're going to the villa."
Then Doni stepped back towards Puskesmas. I read the name and address of the Puskesmas on the board near the entrance.
That's a long way from the villa. Why did they take me and Sarah to the Puskesmas so far away. Is there anyone close to the villa?
Doni's car is coming. Me, Sarah and Roni are coming up. Arriving at the car, I was still curious about the Puskesmas.
"Don, why were Sarah and I taken to the Puskesmas? Isn't there a Puskesmas closer to the villa?"
Doni glanced at me.
"Where did you think you were found last night?"
I thought again. Last night Sarah and I ran in every direction. We don't know where. We ran until my feet hurt.
"That's the cemetery where you found." Doni pointed to a cemetery.
"Huhhhh...!" I shouted with Sarah.
"You fell asleep on top of the biggest tomb."
"Seriously you, Don?" Sarah asked as she advanced her body towards Doni.
"Say the same as Roni. Your bodies are shivering, your clothes are soaking wet."
"What did you see then?" ask Roni.
"We ran from a shady tree near the villa. Because we saw that behind the tree was a grave." Sarah begins her story.
"Then we ran as fast as possible through the heavy rain and also the lightning that struck. We arrived at a residential area. Street exactly. On the left right we had a lot of houses but all the doors were closed. And on their door that was almost the same shape, there was a signboard."
"You're hallucinating. The door was a tombstone with a signboard. The shape and size are almost the same. What are you sitting on, what do you see?" ask Doni.
"That's a big rock on the side of the road. No sign of a grave, Don." said Sarah.
"Yes, you are brought to another realm. Good thing you can still be found."
I swallowed my saliva. It's terrible if it's described in the real world.
And sure enough the distance between the Puskesmas to the villa was very far. Almost an hour's drive.
And we passed through the shade tree where we were sheltering. I looked behind the tree.
"There is no grave, Sar." I said, either Sarah or not.
I only saw thick bushes.
"Where's the cemetery?" Sarah also nodded slowly.
"The grave is in your hallucinating brain. Hunger, fatigue and cold make people easily hallucinate." explains Doni.
Doni is a smart man. He can always explain something scientifically. Which can come to our mind.
"You are also dumb. No one was on the phone!" sahut Sarah.
"There's no call coming in at all from you guys." Roni answered.
"Where isn't there? We called you many times!" Sarah remained tight.
Roni opened her phone. Ask Sarah to check the call to her husband's phone.
"Yes, nothing" said Sarah softly.
"Do you need to check Doni's phone too?" ask Roni.
Sarah and I both shook their heads. Then whose number did we call last night?
