It turns out that at that time Elvira intended to tell Rex her mystical experience. He looked around several times worried that someone else would hear his story.

" Why do I have to squirm behind everything Ms. Elvira...?" rex asked as he watched the surroundings.

" I just don't want anyone to hear this story and pass it on to Captain Tarsih Ma'am.", Elvira half-whispered.

" Why would Bu Tarsih know...?" ask Rex.

" Kasian Mother, who thought it was too much. That's why I had a mild stroke a while ago. I do not want to increase the burden of Mother's mind and make Mother more sick later..," said Elvira.

" Oh that. Continue to experience the mystical what Miss Elvira meant earlier...?" ask Rex curiously.

" Mmm.., look. But the Captain's sure he wants to hear my story...?" elvira asked as she looked at Rex.

" Yes, Miss Elvira. You want to tell me now or I'll go home" Rex said half-threatening.

" Eh, not the Captain...!" elvira said while blocking Rex's arm.

For a moment both were glued. Elvira hurried to release her handcuff on Rex's arm nervously. Then Elvira immediately told her experience to neutralize her nervousness.

" Look, Captain, I once caught a monitor lizard in the back garden of the parlour. My sister and I cleaned up again. Well I'm the one who got rid of the trash and burned it in the back garden. As soon as I burned the trash, I squirmed a life-sized monitor lizard passing beside Me. If usually the monitor lizard is afraid of humans, this lizard is a little strange in my opinion.", said Elvira.

# Lizard is a type of reptile that belongs to the class of lizards, its body size is not as large as a Komodo dragon and usually lives on the edge of a river or swamp #

" What's so weird...?" tanya Rex began to be interested in Elvira's story.

" Yes strange because the monitor was silent next to me. Afraid of being bitten, I stayed away. But the lizard was like following me. He always approached and even stayed beside Me as if joining me burning garbage..," said Elvira riled.

" Why don't you try the monitor lizard with fire...?" ask Rex.

" It's the Captain. But the lizard was not afraid at all. Let alone go, the lizard even nantangin kok. When I was afraid to use wood that ends I burned, the monitor lizard was actually glancing at me without blinking as if to say if he was not afraid of fire. After that I became creepy myself. So I took water and put a fire burning in the garbage pile so that the fire is not blown by the wind and spread everywhere. After that I went into the house and did not dare to come out again.Padahat before Me and My Sisters used to wait for the fire to be extinguished. But because I was not comfortable waiting for the monitor lizard, I ran away and did not finish the job I was..," said Elvira.

" So on...?" asked Rex patiently because he had not found anything mystical from the Elvira story.

" Night I dream Captain..," said Elvira riled.

" What dream...?" ask Rex.

" I was approached by a guy in a strange costume..," said Elvira quickly.

" What weird costume does Miss Elvira mean...?" ask Rex.

" The guy didn't wear clothes, just wore knee-length pants, a golden belt like that batik cloth. But above his head was a crown adorned with the head of a lizard. On both of his arms also wear a kind of bracelet that also has a lizard. Mmm.., but after I remember the shape and color is exactly the same rich lizard I burned the garbage, Captain. It's black and yellow and it's like a snake" Elvira said, wiping the sweat on her forehead.

" Oh yeah. Did that guy say something...?" ask Rex curiously.

" Not by the way, he just stood up smilingly looking at me. At first I was not disturbed by the dream, but later the dream repeated again several times. Too often so make me not calm Captain. Moreover, sometimes I also squirm the boy with the crown of the lizard while teaching in the classroom." said Elvira ended the story.

" So which is true Miss Elvira, lizard or lizard...?" rex's temptation to unravel the tension.

" Kaya the lizard Captain..," said Elvira.

" But why is it the size of a lizard...?" ask Rex.

" But Miss Elvira said that the guy was wearing a crown with a lizard's head..," Rex said.

" I mean like the Captain. Logically, maybe the guy uses a crown as big as a monitor lizard. The lizard's body is larger than a human head. There is not a crown-headed lizard but the lizard is occupied by its name..," said Elvira annoyed but made Rex laugh loosely.

Realizing his uncontrollable speech made Elvira also laugh.

" How about Captain ?. What according to the Captain of my dreams includes mystical disturbances...?" elvira asked with a serious face.

" The look is so Miss Elvira..," said Rex steadily.

" So what Ustadz the Captain will call that can help me too...?" asked Elvira expectantly.

" God willing, he can help. But until he comes, it's best that Miss Elvira stays alert. Do not let your guard down and stay focused with dzikir yaa..," Pinta Rex.

" God willing, Captain. Thank you, '" said Elvira.

" All together. So I went home first, Assalamualaikum.., "gut Rex while stepping onto the highway not far from the orphanage.

" Alaikumsalam.., "sahut Elvira then rushed into the orphanage area.

Rex arrives home when the clock shows at eight p.m. Lanni and Ramon seem to sigh in relief when they see Rex coming home okay.

" Assalamualaikum..," said Rex, opening the gate.

" Alaikumsalam.., "sahut Lanni and Ramon together.

" Well, I'm the same mother here again, yes, very romantic anyway," said Rex while kissing the back of his parents' hands alternately.

" What the hell are you. The same father Mother was waiting for you instead of ngedate..," said Lanni ketus.

" Why wait for me ?. I've been saying goodbye if I want to go to Cirebon and stop by Grandma's house..," said Rex confused.

" That's what makes your mom worried about Rex. Your mother was traumatized by the explosion of a travel car the other day, so she was agitated and agitated" Ramon explained.

" How not to worry. You just recovered and went to Cirebon by yourself. Use the travel car again, who does not ketar-ketir...?" sahut Lanni defended himself.

" Mom calm down. I have not used travel services from PO yesterday kok Bu. I wouldn't want to make the same mistake. The PO section is also still being blacklisted by the government because of the explosion yesterday.", Rex said pacifying.

" Thank God. Let there be no more rich victims yesterday., ." said Lanni quickly who is owned by Rex.

Ramon, Lanni and Rex enter the house.

" How are you doing in Cirebon Nak, it's done, isn't it...?" ramon asked while sitting on the sofa in the living room.

" Thank God be done Well. Later the story is yes Well, I want to take a shower first..," said Rex while stepping into the room.

Ramon nodded and let Rex into the room to clean himself up.
