He's Not Dead

He's Not Dead
Vacation (2)


“Aaaa,” my shout which is also accompanied by the shouts of Marsa, Bono and Oky.


“Arka, what the hell?” Marsa hit my arm. I made sure again the figure that had appeared suddenly beside me, turned out to be no more.


“Ngagetin know no, it's been a supportive situation. Well even ngagetin,” complains Bono.


I sighed, not out of fear because of the visible figure but out of surprise. How not to be surprised, the figure interfered when the lights went out and appeared suddenly as the lights returned bright.


“You feel something no, the time the lights go out?”


Bono and Oky looked at each other and looked at me, while Marsa looked up at the balcony.


“Nothing, he was in. It's behind me but I don't know where I'm going now,” my real words to Marsa but Oky and Bono understand there's something mystical. The two shifted their seats towards me.


“Lo don't be weird, this villa loh is not our home. Don't talk about it like that,” pinta Bono.


“I'm explaining why I shouted.”


“Already, so where will we sleep?” asked Oky who was carried away, he looked scared.


“Here ajalah, use a folding mattress tuh,” point Bono on a pile of folding mattresses in the corner of the room.”


“Arka, your parents when to come back?” Marsa glanced at the wall clock, it seemed she was a bit scared as well because the room for Marsa was downstairs right next to Mama and Papaku's room.


“Ehm, I don't know. Outside still raining, maybe waiting to subside.”


“You guys are hungry anyway? If I'm a laper, no food?” ask Bono.


“I was going to take you out to eat, but it's raining. There is cup noodles doang below,” I replied as I laid back on the carpet.


“Yes already nothing, than can not sleep because of stomach rumbling. Come on down,” bring Bono to us.


“Sama Oky tuh or Marsa. I was lazy down,” answered me and closed my eyes.


“Gue also wait here aja,” Oky said.


“Marsa, don't tell me you want to stay eating doang?”


“Iya, I'm with.”


Marsa and Bono relented and ventured down into the kitchen to brew cup noodles and grab another meal.


“Arka, was there really something here?” ask Oky.


I opened my eyes, but Oky was sitting close to me. Apparently he did not want to come down because he was curious and wanted to ask.


“According to you?  Never mind, don't talk about it and don't be afraid. We are more perfect than “they”,” obviously me so that Oky is not too curious to know more about the figure that was disturbing.


“But to ...”


Oky's speech was interrupted because my phone rang, it turned out to be a call from Mama. Not long ago we spoke, Mama just said she would come home late waiting for the rain to subside and also said that Om Kaivan was already on the way and had almost reached the villa.


The four of us enjoyed cup noodles plus other snacks.once laughed at Bono's chatter and didn't notice anyone's presence.


“Seru highly yes.”


The four of us turned their heads, Om Kaivan.


“Ngagetin. Greetings or what,” I said.


Meeting Om Kai made me remember my dreams about him. I feel a dilemma, because I told you it could be Om Kai to think. Even if I don't tell stories, I think.


It's ten o'clock past, Mama and Papa haven't come yet. Mr. Kaivan is already resting in the room reserved for him. Marsa was already looking sleepy, I took her down and escorted her to her room.


“I have to wait until Mama comes, or how?”


“Hm, no need. Anyway I'm already sleepy, after this it is definitely immediately asleep.”


...***...


“Soide,” shouted Bono ago ... Byur.


Currently the three of us were engrossed in swimming in the pool of villa facilities. Marsa was sitting by the pool with her legs dangling into the water. His body was also wet because it had been swimming two rounds.


Mama, Papa and Om Kaivan were talking on the side porch not far from the pond. I went up, because my body was shivering. Om Kaivan walked up to me.


“Arka, run this out. Invite your friends too.”


“Where?” askaku while drying hair with a towel that has been prepared by the villa attendant.


“There is an empty villa which according to news is very haunted. I'm curious why I want to take you.”


“Ah, weird. Not ah. Om Kai didn't come with Papa to the office?”


Om Kaivan shook his head. “There's Papa you.”


“Come, I want to come,” said Bono who was standing not far from me.


I clucked at Bono, for the zeal to follow Om Kaivan. Among the four of us, he was the most timid. Just last night, sleep does not want to be far from me and Oky even he wants to sleep in the middle between me and Oky.


“Halah, kayak brave aja lo.”


Finally we agreed to visit the empty villa meant by Om Kaivan, without telling Papa the details of our destination.


Right at noon we had arrived at the village a bit away from the location of the Villa where we were staying. This empty villa was in the hills, plus large trees. Actually, the atmosphere and scenery is quite selling for tourist attractions or rest. However, I don't know what the reason is until this villa is empty.


We have dared to go through the gate that clearly there is a sign that says forbidden to enter. There must be a special reason why people shouldn't go over that fence.


I felt a strong and dark energy from within the villa.


“Wah. The area is also yes, even though if it is still open it may be crowded visitors,” said Bono.


“How about if this villa is deliberately closed so that there are no visitors. May be dangerous for visitors,” said Marsa.


“What is the reason this villa is abandoned?” ask Oky.


I just shook my shoulders, we got out of the car and walked closer and closer towards the villa building.


A black shadow was seen between the trees in the neighborhood of this villa and I was the only one to witness it. Marsa happened to be watching the balcony on the second floor.


“You see something?” I asked softly so that Marsa's answer could not be heard by others.


“I see little boy, girl. His clothes and appearance are similar ... noni Netherlands,” said Marsa while looking at me, then our gaze again leads to the balcony.


“Om Kaivan, we are good,” invite me not without reason. I feel bad about our presence in this place.
