Pocong Around
Plan to the rubber garden
On Sunday morning I went for a morning run with Dika, we ran small down the village road. Oh yes, this has been a week more than since I checked up to the clinic, Alhamdulillah now my arm has been separated from the cast ,but still I must always be careful not to collide or friction that will make my arm back injured.
"sister stop first dong, capek nih ,tuh there are selling serabi, we buy first yuk, lapar " invite Dika whine
"haisshhh.ya already yuk, fortunately I brought the money "take me and then walk towards the merchant serabi cake.
Her merchant was a middle-aged mother, wearing an apron and a snail on her head,the mother was seen blowing embers while checking the maturity of the serabi cakes that were in the clay pottery mold.
The smoke from the burning of the firewood billowed into my eyes, and I sat some distance away from the smoke.
"Mum this is her serabi cake how much is an ?" ask me while taking the one that is still warm
"two thousand neng, if you use five thousand eggs, but if the eggs bring themselves from the house only three thousand" said the seller
"this isn't anyone feeling strawberry or pandan?" asked me to look at the ripe serabi cakes
"there is no neng, here serabi like that no one wants to buy neng, weird he said "
"weird kok, even though in the city is very good, Bu "i said
"yes it is in the city of kak, different from here" said Dika who turned out to have spent two pieces of her serabi cake
"buset me one is not abis yet, is this already exhausted two seeds" I said slowly
"hehehehe...abis delicious brother, I can take it again" he asked.
"yes it's up to , you just count how many seeds you eat "say I don't think
Not feel me and Dika already feel full, I then pay for the serabi cake that we eat on the spot, I also wrap some for grandmother and aunt at home.
After being satisfied we went to go home because the day was getting noon, the sun was already hot on the body.
When I got to the crossroads, I met Azzam and Ovan.
"wuih...abis run the morning is rich, bring what ?" asked Ovan to refer to the small black crochet bag I was looking at
"it's a serabi cake for grandma and aunty" I replied
"wah is good "his cetus
"hey.basal selamitan " cried Azzam patted the back of Ovan's hand that was about to reach his crackle bag.
"hehehehe.sorry to joke "his words cry.
"my brother first yes, mules my stomach" said Dika holding his stomach
"yes but don't run, don't be afraid of falling" I said, the boy immediately ran away regardless of my warning, I just shook my head
"where are you going ?" ask Azzam and Ovan
"not anywhere, just take a leisurely walk "sahut Ovan
"what a leisurely walk is it, not you are told to shop for vegetables right ?" cetus Azzam
"well, it's called, shy to know" complained Ovan
"why should be ashamed, good even you want to help parents" I said
"keep on your own?" ask Azzam
"samely I was also asked to buy vegetables "sahut Azzam
"oh that's it, yes, if that's what I first "my camel
But just as I stepped I remembered something, I stopped my steps and turned around, shouting
"Azzam, Ovan.wait "
"why ?" ask Azzam
"is there a rubber garden in this village that penetrates into the forest ?" ask me
"rubber garden ?" azzam's forehead looked wrinkled
"yes, don't you, or do you know that?" ask me again
"know me anyway in this village there is no rubber garden if the rubber tree is there but only one or two doang was behind the house" said Ovan
"why is that why ?" ask Azzam
"not just the name "my voice that can't possibly tell when there is Ovan
"yes, if so I go home" said I who was dissatisfied with their answer
"La wait "excited Azzam suddenly
I also turned around
"yes "ask me
"in this village there is no rubber garden, but like him I know where there is a rubber garden that penetrates into the forest" said Azzam
"really?" ask me
"yes, but what are you asking that for?" ask her again
"yes, if that later I come to your house deh, now I have to quickly fear the hunt down the vegetables" said Azzam then passed with Ovan to the stall of vegetable sellers, 'now ,I don't know where the shop is I don't know yet
I stared at the departure of my two friends, yes, I hope the place Azzam told me was really his place.
I took a breath and walked back to the house.
Arriving at home, I saw aunty who was daydreaming on the porch, like her aunt was upset, I called her silence, I said hello and aunt kept quiet.
"assalamualaikum bi "my whisper is right near her ear
"greetings waalaikum,.duh La..bikin was surprised "aunt seems aghast while rubbing his d*da.
"strange auntie, so I called out loud unresponsive, I took a turn surprised his rich whispers who just saw the devil, why the hell, no problem?" ask me
"no really, not anything" said the aunt
"it's okay if his face is bent so, breakfast is not yet bi, then I bought a serabi cake "I put the bag of crackle next to aunt
"auntie take a plate first all you call grandma, let's eat together here" said aunty immediately move
I stared at the back of the aunt who disappeared behind the door
"auntie why "my inner
Aunty returned with Grandma.
"if so I want to take a shower first" I said when the aunt moved the serabi cake on the plate and poured her chili sauce
"doesn't he want to eat a serabi ?" ask grandma
"i ate the meal earlier, it was for grandma and auntie "I replied as I walked in
"yes, the clean bath, and the beautiful, Azzam came immediately "poling chirps when I was about to take a towel.
"ih what the hell, not clear, already there do not stand there want to look ya.."accuse me.
"either you think I'm a model pocong apan ,ngintip ...sorry yes not my nature ngintip "his words clucked tongue.
"yes if that's it go.." throw me out while stomping the towel towards him
"yes yes.mending me around the village alone, rather than here in suspected mulu" the pocong immediately disappeared
I immediately went into the bathroom , until a few minutes later I finished and immediately got ready 'fearnya Azzam soon come.
Minutes passed and now it was noon, the hour showed at 11:00. I, who was watching television with Dika, had to look out when someone said hello.
"waalaikum salam ..." I said from within, I went
"eh Azzam,ayo came in "take me, apparently Azzam came in, I thought he didn't come
"auntie and granny where ,dead kok ?' ask her
"auntie is in the room, in case grandma might go to my "said garden
"oh that's "
"what do you want to drink?" bargain me
"alah, it is not necessary later if I am thirsty also do not take it myself anyway" he said
"yes already "I was sitting on the seat before her Azzam, we were in the living room with the door deliberately opened wide
"oh yeah, you said you knew the forest had a rubber garden, where?" ask me the point
"why are you doing that ?" ask Azzam
"that time I had a dream, and almost every night I dreamed the same thing, in my dream I saw two people burying something like that,the rich body of a person because of the shape and size of the object they buried exactly the same as the corpse in the cafeteria ", I explained
"i was curious and wanted to make sure, what was right in the grave was Poling's body, because those people were always seen together with the poll while alive" said I again
"how did you know they had anything to do with it?" ask her with a frown
"from my dream "answer me quickly
"it could be just the flower of sleep, you are the one who always thinks about the pocong, so you are concerned about the link" said Azzam as if in disbelief
"it's up to you to believe it or not, now quickly tell me where the place is, I want to make sure it's myself" I urged him
"well I'll take you there, the place is not so far away but I can't bear to let you go alone" he said later
"when do we leave?" ask me enthusiastically
"after dhuhur how is it ?" ask Azzam
"ok, after the dhuhur " sahut I approve it
"hopefully with his grave found, the pocong's memory returned so that we could know who he was and where his family was ,pity also he was already dangling throngs haunting because no one knew of his death "godly I looked straight out of the house ,looks pocong was jumping up and down in the yard
