45 Days of Terror in the PKL

45 Days of Terror in the PKL
Episode 63



Tasya, Irene and Ruth looked together at the contents of the box, while I picked up a plate and knife, Anggi prepared a warm tea for all of us.


Alex and Jonathan just sat there talking.


"Where's grandpa saying??" ask Jonathan.


"Grandfather didn't say anything, just give me a bracelet and a jewel ring for Joana." Answer Alex.


"Hopefully after this there's nothing." Jonathan.


"Well, I hope." Said Alex.


But there was something strange about me, ever since I wore Alex's grandfather's ring to my house, I felt like I was always in the crowd, it feels like my ears are hot every now and then and fingers up to my palms are itchy and hot.


I tried to ignore it, probably because I hadn't had an afternoon shower I thought, because we got home it was almost dark.


We all gathered in the middle room, except for Anggi and Tasya because they were praying magrib. We gathered over tea and ate the sponge that Alex and I had brought, somehow my hands were getting itchy. I repeatedly scratched it and wanted to remove the ring, subconsciously I almost took off the ring but was reprimanded by Alex.


"Jo what do you want to take off the ring??" ask Alex.


"My hands are itchy and hot Lex." My answer.


"Remember what Grandpa told you??" ask Alex.


Instantly I remembered grandfather's words, and muttered inwardly.


"This is what Grandpa meant." My inner.


I stopped scratching my hand, if I kept scratching I would only aggravate the feeling I thought. So I tried to hold and ignore it by holding a glass filled with hot tea to reduce the itching. Even if it is the same, but I still try to hold the glass.


Alex, who saw me trying to hold him back, stood up and sat down next to me.


"Where are your hands here let me see." Said Alex.


I held out my hand to Alex. Alex clasped my hand tightly, strange but I felt itchy and the heat gradually diminished and dissipated.


"It's because of the bracelet she wears." My inner.


"It's been reduced, right??" ask Alex.


"It." My answer.


"We have to keep going like this so that your hands don't itch anymore.." Alex said with a smile.


"Mode.." Jonathan.


In a moment we all laughed. After the itch disappeared, Alex let go of my hand but remained sitting next to me. Tasya and Anggi come and sit with us.


"Jo, this morning, why don't we wake up and leave??" tasya asked while taking a piece of sponge for him to eat.


"I woke up Irene, she didn't wake up. Yaudah so you guys also I can't wake up I can't bear because you guys just slept." My answer.


"Therefore don't wake up Irene Jo, Irene is so good when you sleep like a buffalo." Said Ruth.


"Tomorrow we're not interviewing again, are we??" ask Jonathan.


"No, we just socialize and run our program." Answer Ruth.


"So tomorrow's just socialization, right??" ask Alex.


"Yes bang." Answer Anggi.


"Thank God stay the program, a week is enough yes let us just finish the PKL here." Said Alex.


"Quite as long as we work continuously from morning until afternoon let it finish quickly." Answer Jonathan.


"Don't get tired of an important week get out of here." Tasya.


"He's right, yeah." My speech.


After a half-hour silence, Alex said.


"You're not hungry, you haven't had dinner yet, are you??" ask Alex.


"Hungry." answered Irene.


"Judah let me buy it, I want to go out." Said Alex.


"We're on the list in the group just bang Lex." Anggi.


"Yes.." Answer Alex.


Alex looked at me playing with my phone.


"What the hell are you looking at in a serious cell phone." Alex said spontaneously.


"Look at nothing, just read a novel." My answer.


"Then that's where I used to buy food." Alex said as he stroked the back of my head.


"Jude yepok." My answer.


They all looked at me and Alex. I'm aware of the strange gaze they did not think of Alex's actions that turned out to have changed drastically to treat me.


Alex and I went in Alex's car to buy food that was already in our chat group.


"Honey, look not just the gaze of friends to me is different." I said to Alex.


"Maybe they've noticed our change in attitude." Answer Alex.


I fell silent and thought to myself, how could they know in a few hours, I thought.


To be continue.
