Pocong Around

Pocong Around
Apparently Poling....


I approached the aunt who was behind the house, turns out the aunt was moving firewood that had run out in the sun.


I glanced at Poling who seemed to nod his head at me, hesitatingly I began to speak


"bi...grandmother where?" ask me if I'm stale


"grandma goes to the garden "aunty answered briefly


"hm.bi, there's something I want to talk about, it's more appropriate I want to ask something " said me.


"wasnwhat?" ask aunt without looking


"about this photo "say me to the point, the aunt turned her head and frowned her eyes on me


"photo ? "


"yes, did auntie know the person in this photo?'


"where do you try to see "aunty's mouth reaching for her photo


I was speechless to notice the change in aunt's expression when she saw the photo 'then asked


"where did you get this photo from "ask aunt again


"ah...that's.I nemu.iya I found it when I was nyapu "answer me as soon as.


I saw that the aunt seemed to be sighing and then stepping her feet towards a small bench made of bamboo, I followed her and sat down near her.


"he's his papa Dika" said the aunt suddenly


I gasped


"huh ? papa's Dika?" I said softly, I then looked at Poling who was also as surprised as me


"yes, maybe you forgot because we rarely and never met "aunty's words made me justify it,because all this time my family and I moved around and never came to the village to see my aunt and grandmother


"then...Where is uncle bi?" ask me


"either .. no one knows where it went, until now there was no news, even his family alone does not know where his current existence" said aunt


"what....before his aunts and uncles have any problems?" ask me


"no, until one day her friend came and pointed at something that made auntie feel useless" said the aunt with tears that had fallen on both cheeks


"meaning aunt?" ask me


"your uncle is having an affair "aunty's sobs are now heard, but aunt is trying to hold the stuffing, my hand is outstretched touching aunt's back


"auntie's convinced that uncle cheated?" ask me


"don't know, but from the photo the aunt can see if the uncle is cheating "say aunt


I glanced back at Poling who turned out to be my uncle, looking at his sad look at auntie.


"if if the uncle had never cheated, what would the aunt do, it could have been his friend uncle deliberately slandered him" I said


"auntie doesn't know La, if only aunt could have met her, aunty would have asked her yes or no, but her problem to date is aunt doesn't know where she is "


"is it true that aunt and uncle are divorced?" ask me again, aunt shakes


"auntie has indeed filed divorce papers, but until now the lawsuit letter is still on aunt "his answer again


I sighed, hungung had to say what, there is no way I immediately said if actually uncle has died and his spirit haunts into a pocong figure. I can't imagine how aunty would feel if she knew the truth, but sooner or later she should know that her husband is gone.


"did her auntie's friend never say anything like that about uncle?" ask me again


"no, he just said that your uncle cheated on you and he doesn't know where he is at the moment" she said, wiping off traces of her tears


"bi..whatever happens, I hope aunt can face her sincerely and patiently, what happens is destiny, I'm sure aunt can pass through her strongly" said I , ' said I , I am really confused what to say at this time


**


In room , more precisely on the mattress I slept on my back, I stared blankly at the ceiling of the room with mixed feelings. Sad , fun , confused, hate , all so one.


I'm happy to know who Poling is, and sad to know Poling is my own uncle. I also thought about how Dika would feel if he found out, his father is dead.


In the corner of the room appears Poling is standing pecking while bowing his head. A confused look from the pocong's face.


"so it turns out that I'm your aunt's husband ... Papa's Dika .. but .. why don't I want anything ?" shimmies


"some of you are strange, the time has become a ghost also has amnesia, rich in humans only" I added


"hey.. gini-gini I'm your uncle, call me uncle "his exclaiming.


"but I'm also confused myself anyway, why myself and my family I don't remember anything, but just as you I remember, even if only as great as when you were a child" Poling said again


"then what will you do after you know who I am?" ask her again


"whether, I'm confused, I can't tell my aunt right away that uncle is dead and now shudders up to be my "delicate pocong


"yes don't be it first, I'm not ready "his words make me frown


"not ready .. Why ?"


"yes, I'm not ready to leave this world before my memories come back and make sure they're okay without me "


"indeed with me tell the truth you will go immediately so.not right, your body has not been found "my mouth.


"had told you not to call you, call me uncle "his jolt


"dih..usual times do not have to insist on it "my grouse.


***


The day changed night, the moonlight penetrated through the ventilation gap of my room.


I who was ready to sleep was made to wake up again, because I saw Poling's behavior is very disturbing.


How not, the snail went in and out through the walls of my room by jumping up and down.


"hey ...kam.eh uncle said, there was no work from earlier "ask me.


"i'm again joining nih, I don't know what to do "his answer


"that's, the gaul is very language, that pocong can also join ya " said I clucked the tongue


"have you gone.eh uncle went where the cake, would normally if the night like to roam, do not like that, bother to know, I want to sleep" said I asked the pocong to go


"you're ngusir "he said


"not ngusir but tell me to go "I giggled


"that's the same as "he said slowly


Apparently without me talking again Poling immediately left, there was just his behavior.


I immediately put my body on the bed and began to close my eyes.


In the silence of the night, I suddenly felt my body drifting like cotton blowing in the wind, very light.


Slowly my body floated down and when my feet were on the ground, I could feel the cold and damp surface of the ground, apparently I was not wearing footwear.


I'm plotting my views all over. Only darkness with its lush surrounded grass weeds.


"where else do I "think I am


Not far from where I was standing, I saw a flash of light, and faintly I heard a conversation between one or two people, well, unlike his more than two people, he said,because I can hear some different sounds. A very quiet night makes the slightest sound will surely be heard.


I was curious and was about to approach the origin of the sound, so I was confused because suddenly I was in a room, like this place had long been neglected, he said,because there have been many wild plants that propagate, small branches, dry leaves that fill the floor surface. There is also no illumination of any kind just the moonlight that accompanies my every step and gaze.


A few moments later I heard a voice like someone arguing, and I stepped foot into a room where there was light.


Pranggg'


I was shocked when I heard the sound of a falling object, like an iron falling onto the floor.


Until I finally saw two men carrying someone who was unconscious, whether dead or alive, I quickly hid.


"now how...what are we going to do to her ?"
