Happy birthday, his beloved Ilham❤

My lips involuntarily formed a thin arch, after reading the inscription on the heart-shaped red paper.

How could Inspiration know? I even forgot my birthday. I went back to that little town.

A silver bracelet and a colored brooch match the bracelet.

Gorgeous

My praise in my heart, I immediately put on the bracelet and it looks right on my wrist.

I realized, it turns out there is still one more sheet of paper inside, I immediately took it to read every row of sentences that Inspiration carved there.

What was it like to enter the courtroom?

Have I managed to scare you?

Cie... Wife pouting. Hehehe

I smile, what the hell? The idea is unclear gini.

Sorry, didn't heed your request

With me here, at least I know. That you're doing fine.

I can't forgive myself if anything happens to you.

Ra's...

Can I ask for one thing, right?

Please, whatever happens later, please,

You have to remember that I really love you.

If I let you down later, please don't go, don't avoid.

In that moment, I really needed you.

I knit both my eyebrows. Want to meet, want by letter, Ilham is still Inspiration. Always making a storm.

I immediately dumped the box in the trash, I didn't want to because of the little box, I got back in trouble. I held the brooch and the letter that Inspiration wrote, then hid it behind the face.

My hands gripped the door algae, when the tail of my eyes caught someone standing not far from me.

Don't look, assume there's nothing you see Ra.

My mind tries to remind me, I just turn this door algae and then enter, then what I saw earlier will be lost.

But the basis of the body, always not in the direction of the soul.  I turned the body 90 degrees, looking at where I saw the man.

Where'd it go? I'm sure there were people there. I hate my curious nature, it makes it easy to forget what I see and hear, before everything is clear.

No, I have to hold back. I don't want to be rash in taking steps. And indeed I should have avoided all that has to do with these invisible beings.

But is it true? the one my eyes caught was a human being? It could have been a santriwati, but it could not have been past midnight.

The sound of splashing water was heard from the bathroom not far from my room. before long the sound of people humming and occasionally interspersed with laughter and it made me more curious.

Is there really a santriwati who gets up at this hour to go to the bathroom? It does not rule out the possibility, because indeed I myself often wake up in the middle of the night even though it is just accompanying my friends to the bathroom.

I'm trying to remember when was the last time I could see those creatures, and that was at the funeral.

I decided to see who was there. If that is true santriwati, at least I want to remind them not to make a rowdy, or hum like that. Because really, that voice can make people who hear it will think that they are not human.

"Ra?" I undo the intention of returning to my feet, when my eardrum catches the sound of Iqlima calling from the front door.

"It's true, it's you" Iqlima smiled in relief, then walked up to me.

"I'm going to the bathroom" said Iqlima again.

"Do you want me to go to China?"   Iqlima.

"No need, Ra. I'm brave" I know Iqlima isn't a coward, but with what I heard earlier, I can't let him go alone.

"I happen to also want to go to the bathroom" I explained, making Iqlima nod.

We walked slowly, I immediately put the brooch and the letter into my pocket, before Iqlima saw it.

I put on a sharp hearing, the laughter and humming were still clearly heard from inside the bathroom.

"Ma, did you hear anything?" I'm ascertaining.

"Look what, Ra? No sound whatsoever" Means right in the bathroom it's not a person.

"Splashing water" I lied, there's no way I'm telling Iqlima the truth.

"Oh that, oh, my horror, our guy near the bathroom" I tried to smile in response to Iqlima's words.

That voice I no longer heard, when Iqlima and I entered. I came to mind what creature was humming while laughing. So getting curious.

"I wait here yes, Ma" Iqlima nodded.  After I finished my ablution, I walked to the door, my curiosity has not paid off.

While waiting, I tried to circulate the view looking for the existence of the creature, I'm sure he's still here.

Geckos...Geckos....

"You don't, Ra?" I turned my face to look at Iqlima who was washing his face.

"Mitos parents first, if there is a gecko sound at night, it means there are other creatures who are concerned about us"

"What time?" Iqlima.

"Say, if the sound is close, it means that the creature is far away from us, but if the sound is far away, it means that the creature is near us"

"And you believe?" I waited for Iqlima's answer while looking back.

I didn't believe the myth, but what I heard made my heart move a little.

"No, no matter where something is like that" I breathed a sigh of relief, Thank God, I became calm because Iqlima was not afraid.

Geckos...

Sayup-sayup I heard the gecko's voice again.

"Come, Ra"

"Eh, Yes" Because I was too focused on finding the existence of the creature, I did not see Iqlima had walked ahead of me.

BYURR!

I turned back to the bathroom and heard the sound of something falling into the water.

I stared, as my eyes looked at the figure of a creature in front of the bathroom door that was smiling looking at me.

So then....

That thing was behind me.
