The Tomb Next to the House
43. The Forgotten Message

"Already, Nduk. Stop crying. Grandma can help you," comfort Grandma Surti who I'm sure she's been dizzy hearing my cries from an hour ago.

"Thank you, Grandma."

"Go home. Sprinkle this salt around the house so that delicate creatures cannot enter your house." Grandma Surti handed me a small package.

"Good, Grandma. Thanks again. I say goodbye," I said, as I moved from there.

"Remember, Nduk. Don't forget to be sprinkled or your husband will come into contact with the creature again. And so that you may know the truth" said Grandma Surti again. Before I really didn't see him around the house.

"Yes, yes, Grandma. Oh, my gosh," I snorted. Who was getting bored with his.

On the way home, I stopped for a moment to chat with some mothers who were huddled on the side of the road.

"Eh, yes his spirit is wandering. He said malem-alem like dateng knock on the door of the house people to ask for help." One of the hordes swarmed.

"Who's haunting?" ask me who just arrived.

"Oh, Ma'am Via. That's you, Mommy. In the village next door. One family died of robbery" replied the other mothers.

"Innalilahi ... Is that right, Mom?" my sheep before drifting in that warm gossip.

It was almost afternoon when I got home. Put the package that Surti's grandmother gave him on the kitchen table and then sauntered to the bathroom. It turns out gossiping makes the body sticky too.

"Dec? Have you come?" tanya Raihan knocked on the bathroom door.

Chequelek

The question was asked just as I finished my work. "It."

"Where have you been? I was looking for it."

"Find the wind, Mas. Chop up at home, "me out of the bathroom.

"Mas laper. You haven't cooked yet, have you?"

"Astaghfiullah!" I patted the forehead.

Today's incident left my homework neglected, so even cooking I forgot. Even I had forgotten the worms in my stomach were already protesting.

"Eat outside, yuk?" mas Raihan proposal I immediately reply with a nod of agreement.

The night was getting late when Raihan drove his car back home. I fell asleep along the way. Because lately my body feels very tired thanks to this inner eye that I maintain.

Sometimes I think about closing it. But the faces of Althaf and Rada who raised a smile towards me dispelled the intention.

"Sir, wake. I've arrived at this." Mas Raihan shook my shoulders slowly.

I who had awoken immediately opened my eyes. "Yeah. I'm su—kyaaa!" scream with a high tone.

When the stone opened its eyes, suddenly from the windshield I saw a creepy figure sitting in the back seat. Even his face was not identified. Whether he was a man or a woman, as blood filled every carving of his face. It even looks like the head is no longer intact until it shows a little pink object on it.

Don't ask me where her hair is. Of course it has fallen out because the head is not intact. Astaghfirullah ... It's so scary that creature. I screamed, closing my eyes with my palm when I accidentally saw him.

"Dec? You why?" tanya Raihan sounded worried.

"I-it, Mas. In the back, a-there .... "

"What's wrong?"

Sure enough if Raihan is now looking back to follow my words.

"There's nothing, Dek," he said later.

I peeked out of the open fingers a little. With a quick movement look back to check for yourself whether there are people or not.

The set!

"Fiuh ... "he's relieved.

I didn't see anyone in the back seat.

"Where, Deck?" ask Raihan curious.

"There's nothing, Mom. I just mislooked. But it was a real drag, Mom."

"Look, yuk? This malem," he asked, had opened the car door.

I followed him too. Step inside the house. But the feeling is not good, and my heart is not calm. Like something was forgotten. But what is it?
