The Forest Behind the House
38. Baraj's Story

"It turns out to be better than I imagined," said Sacred as he looked ahead.

"What do you imagine?" tanya is a bit confused.

"none. I'm just imagining a palace like a palace in general."

"Oh yeah, do you feel at home living there, Bud?"

"Why are you asking me that?" Back to asking.

"none. I just want to know. As beautiful as that magical palace is, without having to think about the hardships of the life we live today, does it not make your heart want to settle there?"

"No."

"Why? Isn't life there so good?"

"No. I'm not interested in living a luxurious life without challenges."

Sacred speechless. There was a disgruntled look on the Sacred's face at this moment. Actually, that's not the answer he wanted to hear from Budi's mouth. He hoped, Budi did not want to settle in the occult palace because of him.

"What's up, Saints? Is there anything bad in my heart?"

"none. I just thought, what if one day, Yuni comes back to see you? Is everything going to go back to chaos?"

"No."

Suddenly, Saints were shocked not dumbstruck while listening to the word no coming from behind them.

"What's up, Chi?" ask Budi wonder.

"Are you listening to people's voices from behind?"

"No." Be astonished at the Holy question. Because indeed from earlier Budi did not listen to a little sound other than the voices of the two of them.

"I'm here, Holy. And, that man beside you did not listen to my voice. Because only you can listen to me," said a male figure who suddenly appeared from the side of the Sacred left.

"Who are you?" holy asked loudly in shock.

"What's up, Chi? Who are you talking to?"

"Didn't you see it?" holy Tanya doesn't believe.

Budi could only shake his head because he did not see a single creature other than the two of them. Let alone humans, animals are not there.

"Baraj?"

"Yes. I'm not human, Saints. So do not be surprised if only you can see my presence at this time. For I am a creature of the jinn."

"Oh." Now, Suci understood why Badi did not see the man.

"Holy, have I come to say goodbye to you?"

"Sammit?"

"Yes. Splitting."

"Lho, didn't you just show up? Why did it just appear to say goodbye?"

"Holy, do you remember the voice that spoke to you when you took the wooden box in your mother's room?"

The saint tried to twist the forgotten memory from his mind. Slowly he remembered the voices that helped him while in a state of gripping time taking a wooden box from the mother's room at that time.

"Yes, I remember now. Is that you?"

"Yes, it's me. I told you that one day you'll know who I am. This is the time, when I say goodbye to you."

"But why do you have to say goodbye to me? Can't you stay in this world with me?"

"My task is done, Holy. I cannot remain in the human realm. I have to go back to my nature. The supernatural."

"Tasks? What errand? Who put you in this human world?"

Baraj tells us where he came from.

She is the pet creature of teacher Susi, the deceased Holy Mother. The teacher presents Baraj to Susi because Susi is the best student for her teacher.

Susi is soft-hearted and very good at various medical sciences and shamanism. Susi is happy to treat the sick person without asking for any reward from the treatment.

This is the opposite of Sarah. He was so rude and considerate. Sarah won't help anyone else if there's no reward. Everything he does has to be rewarded. This made the teacher a little disappointed with Sarah's attitude.

But, even though their teacher was disappointed, still, the teacher never distinguished between Sarah and Susi. The teacher is fair to both. Unfortunately, the bad-hearted Sarah felt that her teacher was favorited to her.

Sarah who felt in the number duakan by the teacher, she chose to find a new teacher in silence. Unbeknownst to the teacher and Susi, he is looking for someone he can adopt as a teacher.

Sarah also met with Ki Agung. Ki Agung who is black and equally evil hearted, accept Sarah with pleasure. So Sarah was a student of Ki Agung.
