Hefty


"why La ? "


"what's wrong?" ask Randy and Iqbal almost simultaneously


"astaghfirullah... astaghfirullah.." instead of saying I was a few times and closed my eyes.


"already La , he's gone" said Azzam to make me breathe with relief, I opened my eyes


"go...who's going?" randy's voice asked


"you why?" ask Mr. Iqbal again


"euh.ti.ti.no, no why-why, I just....


"do you see anything ?" ask her again


I nodded slowly


"look what ?" ask Randy


"ghost "sahut sir Iqbal


"ghost ... hahaha .. where there is still light like this there is a ghost, if the night anyway there must be a ghost "sister Randy appeared to laugh


"whose names are ghosts not day and not night are the same, they're all around us ,only we can not see but if the sensitive person can certainly feel it" said Azzam


"oh yeah ?"


"we're as good as leaving here, it's not good to see many people " said Mr. Iqbal while staring around


Sure enough many of the visitors noticed us, especially to me, I also became clumsy at such a gaze.


After a while we arrived at each other's homes, the rain had subsided, leaving the rain that still fell with the cold afternoon breeze as if piercing the bones.


At night, as usual I was finishing unfinished schoolwork, accompanied by a cup of hot chocolate and a setoples of tempe chips.


kriuuuk'


kriuuuk'


The sound of tempe chips sounded very loud when I bit to chew it.


Bugh'


I was silent after hearing the sound of things falling outside.


"what fell yes.ah maybe the jackfruit belongs to the neighbors who fell, the fruit is quite dense and large, ehm.but how the sound is heard in the front yes, yes,the jackfruit tree will be next to the house "think me


I just ignored the sound, and refocused on my work by continuing to put tempe chips in my mouth,if you know for sure mama will grumble because he said it is not good to learn while eating, because later that goes to the brain is not a lesson but food.


Bugh'


Back when the voice sounded, I felt curious and finally chose to look at it, I went outside the room to go to the door.


I peeked slowly from the window, but there was nothing out there.


"what tips?" a voice suddenly made me squeak in shock


"astaga uncle, bikin was shocked" said I


"what are you doing La?" ask grandma suddenly


"eh grandma.this is grandma.so I heard a voice outside "my answer.


"voice...what voice is not granny, then why did grandma horrify you like talking to someone?" ask grandma again


"ah grandma time, grandma feelings only times" I deny


I peeked back at the window, watching what was outside, but it looked quiet there was nothing out there, only the sound of wind blowing on the leaves was heard.


As soon as my fur sat up


Deg'


I was surprised when I saw a shadow behind me, the thing that made me surprised because the shadow was different from the body of the grandmother, while behind me was the grandmother.


"jeez.si.who's behind me, not my "inner grandmother.


With bated breath I tried to turn my head


"granny "my mumbling


It looks like Grandma is still standing looking at me with her smile, but her smile looks strange to me.


"grandmother.." call me slowly.


"ti..it's okay grandma " my words immediately turned away but I accidentally looked at the mirror and I was again made surprised because in the mirror image is not the shadow of the grandmother seen but the figure of the woman who was last afternoon I look at the restaurant


"want what are you ? why does it resemble my grandmother ?" ask me shimmily


"help me .. I want to go quietly. I'm tired "


Suddenly my head felt heavy and dizzy, as if I had finished riding a roller coaster ride my body suddenly shook, nausea hit my stomach and my vision began to blur until I felt my body fall


Bruukk'


After that I don't know anything else, it's all dark.


**


I blinked, my eyes looking around


"where am I ?" I murmured softly


My body feels light when walking, as if I were floating in the air, wait ....


I gasped when I realized I was really floating, my feet were not on the ground, and again ... My body was translucent, like a hologram image?


Have I ...mati ? where am I, am I in the afterlife?


Instantly a black dot appeared, but the longer the black dot was getting bigger until it became a gaping hole wide. Suddenly my body was drawn to the hole.


"no .." My screams tried to hold the pull, but my cotton-like body made it easier to get sucked in the hole, as much as I could survive but it was just a waste, my body was drawn and drowned in the hole


I could feel how powerful the pull was, so that my body was tossed around and banged on something


Duk'


"haskhh..."


I grimaced with pain all over my body, especially on my back, which hit the wall first.


"where else am I?" I looked up, I opened my eyes wide because all I saw was darkness, I tried to fumble around 'em ,I could feel an irregular rough wall but there was also a soft but cold and damp surface, a squeaking sound either bird or whatever made me feel anxious


I walked by touching the wall, until I saw there was a reddish light ahead, I approached and after that I fell silent because it turned out that the place I was in right now was a cave


"are you sure of your coming here? you will not regret, especially the one who became the collision is your own biological child "seen there are two people sitting opposite each other


"i'm very sure Mbah, I'm tired of living like this - this continues, every day of work banging from morning until dawn again my efforts as if there is no result, as if there is no result,just his tiredness alone "saw a middle-aged man, in front of him may be a shaman, because of his appearance who wore a typical shamanic clothing, he said,in front of him there are also some offerings with smoke that billows from burning incense, even the smell of frankincense until it is smelled by me makes me crowded


"after all Mbah said too, my son will not go anywhere, he will always be at the restaurant to help my efforts, so I will not feel really lost his "plus again


My eyes were round, my mouth was wide open, I felt shock at the middle-aged man's words, now I understand, so, the owner of the house eats.


"alright if so" said the shaman then grabbed something from inside his knitting bag that was worn out


"throw this powder into your child's food or drink, in five minutes he will lose his consciousness after consuming it, after which you bury it in your place of business, another one... cut a few strands of your child's hair and tie it and put it in a pot to cook with the food you will sell "


Suddenly my body was pulled back and entered the black hole and was thrown into the wall


"akkhh.." I groaned.


I'm sure I'm in another dimension right now, someone must want me to know something, and she's the female ghost but,normally I would just move around, but this time why is my body translucent like this ?


I tried to get up from my face down, I vaguely heard someone crying, and someone else was saying something.


"already ma'am, maybe it's like this is his destiny, iklhas right our daughter, God loves her more" he said


"but why should it be so soon sir.. huuuhhuuu....."


It looks like the mother was crying while holding a picture of their daughter, like this happened after the father's son died.


"help me to get out of the shackles of my father "exciting the figure of the woman who became the victim of his father, I also look pity on him


"how can I help you?" ask me


"find my body in my parents' restaurant as well as the hair that is used as a selling medium "


Soon I was back in my world.


I... was in the room? not the last time I was in the living room ....
