Actually I Why?

former House Hang yourself part 5

"Read that mantra and memorize it. Do it every day before going to bed and when you wake up, son"

Brain recalled the message of the Father during his life. There was a spell that Father deliberately wrote, he slipped under the clothes, neatly arranged in the closet.

"Come, Mom. Careful" said Brain in the yard looks slippery after the rain yesterday.

Mother then sat on the long wooden chair of the porch of the house. Teak wooden chairs are very old, the paint has also faded but still looks sturdy.

"You go in first, find Lidya. Mom sat down for a minute. Mom's feet are tired, after the long road" said Mother while straightening her legs and sorting them.

"For a moment, Mom. Later Brain bring water to Mother" said Brain then entered the house.

The house was not locked by Lidya, after the wife received food from a middle-aged woman,

"Assynolt, Ma. I'm h-home. Darling.."

No one said. Brain searches every corner of the house. He remembered his two daughters locked themselves in a room while on the phone earlier,

"Tock. Geck. Geck!"

Brain knocked on the bedroom door, man,

"Hani's. Nadira. You guys in there?" Call Brain.

"Papa. Papa's outside. Papa's home yet?" answer Hani from the room that is still locked tightly with a thick teak closet.

"Yes, Son. Let's open the door" Brain said.

Hani and Nadira work together to move the closet back to its original position with her tiny hands. The door was not open for long,

"Finally..." Said Hani sighing.

The sweat both splashed on the forehead temples,

"Where are you guys?" Ask Brain.

Both of his daughters did not know where the wife was. Brain panicked, where his wife disappeared. Every place he's been looking. But, Lidya he never met. Brain wanted to take a spell in the closet, undo his intentions, when he heard the sound of sink water in the kitchen.

"Lady.." Brain said slowly.

He then rushed towards the kitchen, making sure the voice came from his wife,

"Darling..." Call Brain.

Lidya then turned her back to Brain. The thin-faced woman ignored the call of her husband. He was silent, no movement at all. He is a statue standing without sound.

Brain grew increasingly fearful, his chest beating rapidly, he squinted his eyes, making sure that the woman before him was his wife, Lidya.

"Dear"

Brain called his wife. Step by step, Brain continued to advance slowly, slowly. He patted his wife on the shoulder,

"Hey"

Brain then pulled Lidya's shoulder. Lidya turned to look at him,

"Ma.."

"Jully..."

Suddenly, Lidya fainted on her lap.

"Astaghfirullah's. O Allah. Ma's.. Honey" said Brain patting his wife's cheek gently.

The man then carried his wife lying in the living room, the front room. Hani and Nadira followed behind.

"Hani, please Papa, son. Get a glass of water" said Brain who was sitting on the sidelines of the chair.

He kept holding his wife's hand, kissing the back of Lidya's hand,

"Mom...Lidya, Ma'am" Brain said, turning to the outside.

He remembered his mother, still sitting on the porch of the house. Brain asked Mom to come in,

"Lidya fainted, Mom"

Hearing Brain's voice, Mira's mother rushed in, making sure the child's condition was just his puppet,

"What else is this. My heart does not taste good" Mummed Mother in heart.

When everyone in the house was preoccupied with Lidya,

Sound passing on the porch of the house. Brain heard that, but he didn't touch her. His eyes were fixed on the clock that was attached to the wall of the house. It's twelve o'clock.

The sun is not so hot, but the house is very hot,

"What's wrong with your wife, son?" Ask Mom.

Mother sat in place of Brain, the middle-aged woman continued to rub Lidya's forehead, her mouth seemed to not stop uttering God's asthma repeatedly.

Lidya realized, she was a little dizzy and confused, why she could sleep on the wooden sofa. She doesn't even know her husband and in-laws have been home since.

"Father, Mother. Why am I here?"

The last memory he remembered was just a bowl of ribs given by a middle-aged woman,

"Oh yes, there was a woman who brought food here. Ma'am. He also asked Mother" Lidya said.

"Not that mother said, do not open the door before Mom and Brain return" replied Mother Angry with a disappointed face.

Mira's mother is angry with her daughter-in-law. His words are not at all heard, considered the wind then, in the heart there is a sense of anxiety that he himself craves. She feared the fateful event repeated twenty years ago, Brain's grandmother died from a shipment of witchcraft eaten from the gift of an unknown person.

Suddenly, Nadira screamed hysterically,

"Yyyyyyy..."

Nadira accidentally turned to the front room near the sofa chair, he saw an indistinct figure apparently covered in long unraveled hair, creeping on the wall of the room.

"Why are you Nadira?" Ask Brain.

Nadira then pointed towards the room,

"What's? You see what? There's nothing, son" Brain replied looking up at the room.

The man came closer to the door, and he saw nothing strange. Everything seemed ordinary in his eyes.

Nadira could not believe it, then followed the father closer to the door. His round eyeballs continued to pay attention to every corner of the room. Nothing strange, though,

"So I saw a ghost, Pa. Long hair. He's crawling on that wall"

Brain laughed, though,

"Where is this ghost of broad daylight"

Not believing his daughter's words, Brain thinks maybe Nadira is too much into the world of horror, so make her daughter imagine too high.

"Let's get the kids in the room, time for a nap. Papa also wants to rest outside, tired of the road away from Mr. Razaq's house" said Brain then diverted.

Mira's mother, who was still disappointed, left her son and daughter-in-law in the front room. Fifty-year-old woman, half a century old, went into the back room and locked it from the inside.

Brain and Lidya let her own mother without coaxing her out. They are both sure, later Mother will also come out alone, maybe Mother needs some time to calm down.

Eve's home is so hot, Brain undresses her shirt. Only the armless singlet wrapped his burly body. He lay down on a thin mat on the floor.

While Lidya was sitting on the sofa chair, she pondered over the strange incident she had experienced earlier. He tried to remember what happened.

An hour later, Lidya sat still, silent,

"Mr. Mr"

Brain's voice ripped Lidya's mind off. He glanced at the sleeping Brain. Brain looked tormented behind his sleep. The husband kept calling the old father-in-law dead. Brain's forehead was dripping with sweat.

"Brains. Save your mother and family, son. Find that spell. Read it soon, son. Reads. Read it, son"

The voice of the Father kept calling Brain in the dreamland. No light, no darkness. The voice echoed, the longer, the bigger.

"No. no..." Shouting Brain.

Seeing her husband screaming, Lidya woke up Brain,

"Pa. Papa's. Up, Pa. Papa..!" Said Lidya then slapped Brain on the cheek.

Brain awakens from his dream, he sits, pensive for so long.

"So Papa dreams Father, Ma" said Brain staring at his wife.

You keep asking him to recite a spell that he himself doesn't know where his paper is. The father kept pushing him over and over again,

"Who knows this is a lead for us, Pa. This is help from my father. We have to find the spell" said Lidya increasingly convinced.

Actually, without Brain knowing, the spell he had memorized a month before Father died. When you brew coffee on the terrace of the house with him at night, before the earthquake came and killed many residents of the village of Gondoro including his father, AlRoberto.
