212. Awaiting Promise

Rex seemed to smile when he found the name 'unique girl' on the screen of his phone that rang.

" It's not like this fast it's just a nelephon..," muttered Rex and then shifted the green button on his phone screen.

" Captain Assalamualaikum...!" shezi from across the phone.

" Alaikumsalam Ma'am Shezi..," Rex said with a laugh.

" Before I want to tell you so you don't ge-er yes. I'm a nelephon because there's something not because you miss the same thing" Shezi said straightforwardly.

Shezi's words surprised Rex and made him unable to hold back a laugh. Across the street, Shezi scratched his un-itchy head when he realized his ridiculous remark.

" Here is the belom of his laugh...?!" shezi asked impatiently.

" Yes yes sorry. What's it gonna take, Sister Shezi...?" ask Rex in between his laughter.

" Don't use everything. Shezi. I'm the same old man there..," said Shezi ketus.

" okay. What's up Shezi...?" rex asked with a smile.

" Mmm.., the Captain said that it turned out to be true, you know." Shezi said.

" What does that mean...?" rex asked pretending he didn't understand.

" Ck, about the ghost is Captain Mas..," said Shezi riled.

" Oohh that. Why the same ghost...?" ask Rex.

" The ghost followed me home and made me afraid, how about Mas...?" shezi asked worriedly.

" Mmm.., I really want to help but can't..," Rex said.

" Why can't you ?. That ghost is you...!" shezi said loudly.

" Who said my temen...?" rex asked while holding back a laugh.

" Yes, because at first he was following you. Because you were making a conversation earlier, uh now he's even following me. I was treated to a plate of fried rice but had to be followed by a ghost..," Shezi said annoyed but made Rex laugh.

" What do you want now...?" ask Rex patiently.

" Why use tanya. Yes evicted dong, sent where the original cake do not go to my house let alone to My room...!" sahut Shezi.

" But if you want to help you can't via telephon aja Zi, we have to meet. But if I invite you to meet, ntar I'm accused again of your modusin..," said Rex casually.

" Ish, it's so complicated. Yes, we have met. Where and when...?" challenge Shezi.

" God willing the day after tomorrow,." - Rex.

" It's long. Why not tomorrow anyway" Shezi protested.

" Cieee cieee..., someone who can't wait to see me yaa..," teased Rex with a laugh.

" It's not funny, Captain !. I'm serious, don't joke...?!" shezi said fiercely.

" Oops, sorry. I just want to make your mood better Zi..," said Rex.

" My mood won't improve until the ghost leaves and doesn't bother me anymore. Look at it" Shezi said.

" Yes..," said Rex quickly.

" If you already know why you are still waiting for the meeting...?" shezi asked impatiently.

" I picket tomorrow and just got home the day after tomorrow. Insha Allah go down the picket I immediately contact You to make surein place and time of meeting..," said Rex.

" Keep during the waiting Mas Captain picket, I have to do...?" ask Shezi.

" When it doesn't have to be taught, I know. More specific songs can be..," said Shezi gusar.

" More dhikr, under any circumstances and anywhere. If you can do alms yes, so that it can reduce the bad influence. In addition, try not to interact with him or anyone you will see later..," said Rex seriously.

" When he talks how...?" shezi asked, making Rex laugh again.

" What do you want to talk about with ghosts...?" ask Rex in between his laughter.

" Not me but him. Once upon a time the ghost wanted to say something or ask me for help. If you're rich, how should I...?" ask Shezi.

" Avoid. The way is yes you move or shift to another place that is more rame. Remember, don't be alone...!" rex said firmly.

" Okay, thank you Captain." Shezi said sincerely.

" All together. Now you can rest because I'm sure he won't dare to go into your room." Rex said in a soft tone of voice.

" Yes the Captain. I wait for his promise yes, Assalamualaikum..," Shezi said at the end of his sentence.

" Wa alaikumsalam..," Rex said with a smile.

Rex stared at his phone screen for a moment then shook his head. I don't know why Rex feels comfortable talking to Shezi.

" It's bad, but I don't like to pretend. Funny too if you are angry again rich that..," muttered Rex with a smile.

Then Rex stepped in to close the gate. When he turned to the road in front of the house, he again saw the appearance of a ghost of a coffin bearer who was passing by.

Rex let out a long sigh of confidence that in a moment there would be chaos. Rex's claims were proven. Suddenly Rex heard a scream in the distance. And soon a group of teenagers ran in front of the house screaming.

" Ghost lampor...!. Lampooorr...!" said two teenage boys out loud.

" Not lampor be*o !. It's a ghost that's gotong keranda...!" a teenager reminded.

" Aah, same thing. There are also her scarves. Instead of ribet say a lampor, will be sorted..," said the teenager who was screaming while continuing to run.

" Don't bother calling a ghost why the hell !. Now we have to tell the residents that the ghost of the coffin bearer is nongol again...!" other teenage scolds.

" Yes right..," said the other two teenagers together.

After agreeing, a moment later the teenagers shouted back to make a row.

" Mirror...!" the teenagers said loudly.

Unfortunately the screams of the teenagers did not get a response from the residents. Some residents were grateful when they heard the teenagers were found a ghost figure carrying a coffin.

" Let's not stay up again..," said one resident while closing the window curtain.

" Don't you know tomorrow you still have school ?. Stay up every night. Like his parents, find money for school children. Uh, the one at school didn't even know himself..," a mother scolded while locking the door tight.

" Racaine. It's nice to have a ghost." said one resident, laughing and then walked into the house and locked the door.

While in his place Rex still appears to be standing behind the gate while observing the teenagers. He deliberately hid and did not come out to help because he wanted to teach the teenagers a lesson.

" Uvah know have the guts to sneak, still pretentious and stay up in a dark place. Basic ABG labile..," Rex murmured while shaking his head.

After making sure the teenagers are okay, Rex intends to enter the house. But Rex's steps stopped when he saw the appearance of Luna's spirit in the corner of the yard.

Rex approaches Luna's ghost and speaks.

" I know Aunt Luna needs my help. But I'm sorry I can't help you now. My condition is weak again. Besides, I have to prepare stamina for tomorrow's task. So I'm asking Aunt to be patient in a minute. God willing I will help Auntie later," said Rex while looking at the ghost of Luna with a sad look.

As if understanding with Rex's words, Luna's spirit seemed to nod. A moment later Luna's spirit vanished after Rex recited a heartfelt prayer for her.
