40 Days

Chapter 8

Deg !!

Curious, Khadija got up and headed for the bathroom.

Krieeeett

Not until his step there, the creaking of the bathroom door has been heard by Khadijah and Maura.

The room lights suddenly went out..

'' Hii.hii..hii.., the giggling sound of a child is heard so clearly in the middle of a quiet quiet atmosphere.

Khadija flinched, pecking at the doorway to the kitchen. The reflection of light from the outside that became the only lighting in the room.

Sweat began to wet Khadijah's face, pouring out at the temple. His legs shook violently, a new thing this time he experienced throughout his life.

Khadijah retreated back, he had to protect Maura who was still sitting on the sofa. He was sure that his daughter was now very frightened.

'' Maura, where are you ? '' Seized was shocked again when he did not find Maura in the original place.

'' Maura called her back while continuing to search for her daughter amidst the faint light from outside.

Khadijah fumbled through the closet looking for candles and matches that were in the drawer. Panic and anxiety whack, he is afraid something happens to his daughter Maura.

After getting the candle he lit, although several times had to struggle to light matches that continue to be blown by the wind.

Khadijah combed the whole room with the help of a candlelight not so bright, there was no Maura there.

He went into the main room of the house.

Braakk!!

The sound of Maura's bedroom door being slammed very loudly, made her aghast.

'' Astagfirullahaladzim, "he hastily approached the door of the room.

His hands tried to open the door, but it was so difficult as if the door was tightly locked. Surprisingly there was no Maura's voice from inside.

'' Maura..you're in there, son ? '' he shouted as he continued to try to press the door leaf.

Silence there was no answer from inside, making Khadijah more worried.

'' Khadijah.open his door, Amir's voice was heard outside the house.

Amir, who happened to pass by at that time, was surprised to see Khadijah's house in a dark state visible from the outside.

Khadijah soon unlocks the exit door, hoping Amir can help her find Maura.

'' Bang, Maura is missing, now Khadija is sobbing.

'' What ? ''

Suddenly a scream came from inside the room.

'' Let go of me, I don't want to die.let go.., Maura's voice from inside is very hysterical.

Sontak Amir and Khadijah immediately pushed open the door of the difficult room.

As Maura sat on the bed with her hair ruffled, she turned her back to the door when Khadijah and Amir managed to open the room.

'' Maura.. '' Khadijah approached.

'' Hii.hii.hi.., ''Maura bekikian with a vibrating voice made the nape of both of them goosebumps.

'' Colored, whispered Amir holding back his sister's steps.

Khadija looked over with a tense face and was overcome with anxiety.

'' That is not your daughter, whispered Amir back.

The eyes of the two looked back at Maura who was still pecking on the bed. Suddenly, he turned his head grinningly looking at the two people behind him.

Maura's face was so other, she looked so creepy. His face was as pale as if there was no blood flowing in the girl's body.

'' Astagfirullah, O Allah, help the servant son of O Allah.

Amir read the do'a in his heart and then began to approach towards Maura.

'' Stop !! " maura shouted as if ordering Amir to stop reciting holy verses.

Both of his hands close his ears, eyes are bulging now his bead began to rise to the top to just show his white part.

'' I have to take this girl, she has to die ! " screams back.

'' What do you mean ? Who are you really ? '' amir continues to approach.

'' I hate this girl, she doesn't feel pain like us. We are envious of him, the roaring sound that came out of Maura's mouth as if alternating.

'' Envy ? '' his Khadijah did not understand.

'' We are all dead, and this girl is alive. We are not willing !! '' the voice that was slashing just now started like a bluff.

Khadija collapsed and collapsed on the floor, unable to support his already very weak body. He sat down with more and more tears on his face.

'' Get out of here before I hurt you with the Lord's verse.

The Maura movement is becoming increasingly unorthodox. His head, hands and body parts move very stiffly. Occasionally grimacing as if he was enduring the pain, especially when Amir began to touch the tip of the big toe stuck in the bed.

Amir continued to press the finger while incessantly reading the do'a. Maura's body was shaking violently. Until the shrill was heard echoing in the room, and Maura was immediately slammed into the bed.

At that time also the lights of the room began to turn back on with his own. Still limp, Khadija tried to get up and get closer to the bed.

'' What happened to my son Bang ? Who are they ? '' peekik Khadijah.

'' Maura is possessed, it looks like they are the spirits of the victims of the bus accident, replied Amir while correcting the position of Maura's body which is currently unconscious.

'' How is this, Bang ? Why do they keep bothering my son, pity Maura Bang. " Khadijah rubbed the child's hair covering part of her daughter's face.

'' We have to find a way to treat him. Tomorrow I call Ustadz, said Amir.

Khadijah nodded in approval to his brother's proposal. Although Amir can currently overcome the possessed Maura, but he can not stop the interference of the astral creature.

True or not the words of the shethan, he could not know. Given so much deceit, it is not impossible if it is only their deception to frighten and weaken the faith of mankind.

As for Amir and Khadijah, the dead cannot remain in the realm of the mortal world. Those who have not been placed in the nature that has been provided are nature barzakh.

Over night Khadijah and Amir continued to look after Maura, worried that such an incident had happened again.

Until late at night, Khadijah decided to pray tahajud. He immediately took ablution, then rested before the Khalik.

Begging Allah SWT for help, so that his daughter is kept away from the disturbance of shethan.

Meanwhile, in the village where Jeni lives, four people who are patrolling around the village. In that place is still very intertwined harmony and concern for the security of the village. Although there has never been any crime, the postal patrol movement is still preserved there.

Upon entering the alley of Jeni's house, suddenly someone stopped his steps.

'' What's up ? '' asked Alam one of the men who was in charge of patrol that night.

'' We do not need to go to Rt here deh, said Yanto with a slightly tense and scared face.

'' Why is it ''Why ? '' asked Nature in wonder.

'' Anu.., my hair often creeps when passing through Mr. Jamal's house. '' Yanto rubbed his nape. Jamal sir is Jeni's father.

'' Oh, you're afraid of Neng Jeni ? He is not there, do not be like a child, said Marno who had spent several months wandering in the village because the wife was indigenous there.

'' Surprisingly, Kolot is still afraid of that. It's a hunting road, into the night hunt, Ketus Alam.

'' Heh basic scarecrow (fear), '' muttered Iwan.

'' Yaudah you first, ringis Yanto did not care in the fear of the three friends.

Nature begins to walk into the alley with her courage, then follows Manto and Iwan. Yanto himself was still worried, he heard a news interlude from the patrol group last night, if they saw Jeni in front of his house last night. Of course, the issue spread widely into the lips in the village, to make Yanto's guts shrink. Despite not knowing the truth of the news, Yanto still did not dare to enter the alley to Jeni's house.
