187. Worrying...

Rex stopped his steps and turned to look at the mango tree. He observed the unnaturally moving leaves of the mango tree.

At that time the wind was blowing quite hard to make all light objects move, including leaves on trees. But the movement of the leaves on the mango tree looks more energetic than other trees and it attracts the attention of Rex.

Rex let out a long sigh as he saw the figure of the woman in white dress and long hair sitting casually on top of the mango tree. Even though his figure was hidden behind dense foliage, Rex could see it clearly.

" It turns out Aunt Kun..," muttered Rex while shaking her head.

As if aware if being observed, kuntilanak on the mango tree also looks more active. He swung his legs quickly while laughing crisply to make Rex smile. Fad intentions arise in Rex's heart, he also greeted kuntilanak who was known to like the man.

" Well, what a fun game. Be careful of falling," Rex said with a laugh.

Hearing Rex's greeting makes the kuntilanak happy. He shook the tree to the right and to the left, causing Rex to worry.

" Hey, don't be rich !. Later if the tree is broken berated Mr. Ustadz you know...!" rex said to remind.

The tree stopped moving. Then the kuntilanak on top of the mango tree floated down and stood under the mango tree. Both eyes looked at Rex from behind the long hair dangling over his face as if he was reading Rex's character.

Rex smiled and introduced himself.

" My name is Rex. I came here with a friend of mine named Elvira. We're guests here. My friend will stay here longer. So please don't bother him yeah." Pinta Rex.

Instead of answering the kuntilanak instead laughed then floated away and perched from tree to tree.

" What's wrong with Rex...?" ask ustadz Akbar from the doorway.

" Ustadz Map. I was talking to Aunt Kun who was on the mango tree..," said Rex casually.

" Oh yeah. He was used to appearing to be a stranger or someone who had just come here for the first time. Especially when Rex is handsome. I'm sure he immediately stirred up..," said Ustadz Akbar with a small laugh.

" I'm just asking him to not bother Miss Elvira while staying here later Ustadz. Uh, instead of answering he just floated there." Rex said as he scratched his head.

" That means he doesn't mind the same request of Mas Rex..," said Ustadz Akbar while patting Rex's back gently.

" Oh that's it.." Rex said with a smile.

" yes. Come on in Mas, Mr. Usup has prepared dinner for us..," said Ustadz Akbar.

" Any Ustadz..," said Rex and followed Ustadz Akbar who stepped into the dining room.

Arriving at the dining room looks Elvira who is eating food. It looks so good as if I haven't seen good food in a long time.

" I'm sorry Pakde." said Elvira with a full mouth.

" Gapapa Son. Pakde knows you must be upset because three days have to eat the food of the Hospital is notoriously bland.

" Yes Pakde." said Elvira timidly.

" Just relax, eat a lot to quickly recover. Come on, please Mas Rex..," said Ustadz Akbar as Rex sat beside him.

Rex nodded then started taking the rice and side dishes after previously gulping down some water.

After finishing her dinner, Elvira went into her sister's room to rest. Ustadz Akbar and Rex continued their dinner while talking about things.

" Lho, I was just waiting for the cue from Ustadz..," said Rex confused.

" To be honest I ran out of Mas Rex's idea. I usually have a lot of ideas in my head when I help others. But the pas ngalamin itself even so blank yes..," said ustadz Rex while smiling wryly.

Rex nodded. He understood how Ustadz Akbar felt at that time.

" Ustadz Map. We can't take any action because Ms. Elvira also doesn't complain about anything Ustadz. Maybe not yet, so we have to be on our guard" Rex said quickly.

" Oh that. I'm very happy because it means we can breathe for a while. It's nothing, Mom. I am quite tired you know because these few days escort Elvira..," said Ustadz Akbar while writhing his body.

" Ustadz needs a break. So I'd better go home because I want to rest too.., " said Rex while rising from his seat.

" Eh, I didn't mean to ngusir you know Mas. I'm just saying that for a few days I'm pretty tired of keeping Elvira in the Hospital, especially I can't sleep well there either...!" ustadz Akbar said that he was not feeling well.

" I also didn't feel like I was kicked out of Ustadz. It's time for me to go home. So I say yes..," said Rex quickly.

" But..," Ustadz Akbar's speech was interrupted because Rex cut it fast.

" Rest Ustadz. If there is any telephon. God willing if there is no obstacle I will come..," said Rex.

" Yes, thank you Mas Rex..," said ustadz Akbar with a smile.

" All together. Now I'm home yes, Assalamualaikum Ustadz..," said Rex while kissing the back of the ustadz's hand.

" Wa alaikumsalam, be careful Mas..," said Ustadz Akbar, who is a member of Rex.

Rex propelled his motor at high speed. At that time he was on his way to the house after visiting the house of Ustadz Akbar.

Suddenly Rex remembered the hum that sounded along with the wind that blew in the house of Ustadz Akbar earlier.

" What's up, how's that humming sound again. There's gotta be something bad. Or maybe the disruption experienced by Bu Elvira is not yet complete, huh...?" ask Rex in my heart.

Shortly after, Rex arrives home. After parking the motor in the yard, Rex rushed to close the gate.

When about to close the gate Rex saw a shadow flashed quickly on the road right in front of the house. Rex also undoes his intention to close the gate and then come out to chase the shadow.

Rex widened his eyes when he saw the shadow stopping halfway. The shadow is not alone. There was another shadow coming with him. The other shadows were numerous and when combined into one could form a black sphere the size of a house that could destroy anything in front of it.

" Oh my God, let alone this." muttered Rex.

Like hearing what Rex said, the shadow turned towards Rex and then moved wildly as if angry. Rex just stared while chanting a long dhikr in his heart.

At the same time, a car appeared to be coming from the opposite direction. Rex was surprised that the car broke through the shadowy lump until it split into pieces. Screams of pain and angry gestures were heard in Rex's ears and it made him riled up.

Rex was surprised to find that the car that broke through the black shadow was Gama's car. From behind the open car door Lilian looked out with a sweet smile. Rex rubbed his face rough because he was worried that something bad would happen to the pregnant sister.
