Cempaka Bride

Amanda meet?

Shortly afterwards Hasni arrived. He was confused when he saw everything gathered in Ayu's room. Not yet had he asked suddenly Ayu shouted hysterically.

"Panass! Panasshss!" he shouted while continuing to thrash.

Pak Ustaz rubbed Ayu's face with prayer water while continuing to try to pull out the genie that was in Ayu's body.

Suddenly Chandra and Ivan were thrown backwards. While Satya and Rama fell forward when Ayu rebelled violently.

Zein who stood behind Ayu was shocked when he saw in Ayu's head suddenly there was a typical wedding decoration and lace that dangled long.

Ivan immediately crawled quickly towards the front. While Chandra is still in shock soon pulled Satya to stay away.

Zein shifted to the left and pulled Rama's clothes which were still glued in place with his eyes wide.

Everything moves away behind Pak Ustaz who still continues to recite the strands of prayers.

Ayu's face slowly changed until it became Rima's face. His gaze was sharp to everyone in front of him.

Rama swallowed his saliva to wet his suddenly dry throat. He fixed the position of the shirt Zein had pulled.

"Five! Get out of Ayu's body!" Zein's orders in a slightly loud and firm voice.

Rima turned her gaze towards Zein. Look at the tall man sharply.

"Rima, out! Have mercy on Ayu! He doesn't know anything!" Rama spoke after controlling himself.

Rima turned to look at him. His eyes turned softly when he recognized the figure of Rama.

"M .. a .. s ....!" rima's voice called to Rama.

"Y-yes, Deck. This is Mas" replied Rama slowly.

His heart suddenly felt moved, it turned out that Rima still recognized him.

"Take him and talk" whispered Zein, who was standing beside Rama.

Rama nodded and kept trying to hold back the sadness in his chest. He had to stay focused for Rima to immediately exit Ayu's body.

"Come, Deck. Ayu good girl. He had nothing to do with Amanda or Eric," Rama told a pleading look.

Hearing Eric's name, Rima's expression turned angry. Highlight his eyes sharpen. The veins on his face began to bulge.

"Rima, we've got information about Amanda and her family. Be patient. In a moment we'll find Eric" Zein said.

"Yes, Deck. We'll keep looking for Eric's whereabouts. Now get out of Ayu's body!" sahut Rama along with the water poured ustaz to the head of Rima.

The woman screamed loudly along with the appearance of white smoke overhead. His face moved so hard that it finally turned into Ayu's face.

Suddenly Ayu's body fell to the floor. A shadow figure darted out and passed above Zein's head which suddenly felt cold.

Ustaz immediately helped Ayu to wake up. Satya and Ivan rushed to help until Ayu was finally lifted and laid on the bed.

His pale face looked like one who was asleep.

Zein slowly sat down next to Rama and grabbed the shoulder of his crying friend.

Triska approached and rubbed Rama's back while whispering to calm him down.

Hasni slowly approached and sat down near Zein. His eyes looked at Rama. In his heart, he actually also cried Rima who became haunting.

"Sir, thank you very much for the help," Zein said while shaking hands with the ustaz who were about to leave.

"Yes, Kang. Nasty. God willing tomorrow my fellow students and I will come here to do rukiah" replied Ustaz, smiling.

"Yes, Sir. We waited. Thank you again. If there is no Father I do not know how the condition will be," said Zein.

That night Ayu was carried out of the room and transferred to Triska's room. Zein and Rama sleep in Triska's living room. They keep watch of all the bad possibilities that could happen.

The next day Ayu is delivered to her brother's house by almost all of her friends. After that, each of them split up to do other activities.

Ivan and Tia went both ways. Rama went with Vinda. Hasni has been going to his future wife's house since morning. Dinar and Nani decided to take a walk around Bandung.

"We go, yuk, Bang!" take Triska while leaning against Zein's room wall.

"Abang tired, honey. This part of the novel also does not work. If you want to walk with Chandra. Poor him alone left Satya who is working overtime," said Zein. His hands did not stop typing on the laptop.

Triska fell silent and chose to lie sideways to turn her back to Zein. His hands were busy playing the mobile phone he had been holding since. Chubie's mother had not wanted to stay away from him. The black striped ash cat was sleeping coiled beside him.

"Excuse me. Mas, Ma'am," said Chandra from the open door of Zein's room.

"Yes, Chan. Come on, come on in" replied Triska. He got up and sat down against the wall.

"Anu, Ma'am, Mas. Can I have some water? The one in the room ran out," Chandra said hesitantly.

"Can. Come on, sit here. There's cake" replied Triska. He stood up and set foot in the kitchen. Pour water into a teapot and bring it to the living room.

Chandra sat by the door timidly.

"This, Chan," Triska said as she held out a teapot.

"Thank you, Ma'am," said Chandra. He quickly poured the water from the teapot into the glass and drank it to the end.

"It's cake. Come, eaten. Don't be shy." Triska offered a plate of sponge cake that Chandra happily received.

Seeing Chandra eat voraciously makes Triska's heart full. He understood that this young man in front of him might be penniless.

Triska stood up again and went to her room. Walk quickly to the kitchen and open her small cupboard. Take out some cans of sardines and cornets that he had bought at the minimarket after delivering Ayu to his brother's house. Put the canned food into one plastic bag. Add two large packs of biscuits as well as some instant coffee packs into a plastic bag.

Then he went back to Zein's room.

"This is for you and Satya. If you need rice in my room, yes," Triska said as she held out the plastic bag to Chandra's hand, who received it with a confused face.

"Anu .. thanks a lot, Ma'am. So ngerepotin," said the young man timidly.

"Either. No need to take it" Triska replied with a smile.

"The stove on the back can be made, right?" ask Chandra.

"Can. Pake aja's. If the gas runs out just tell Mbak Dinar. He'll buy the gas" said Zein.

"Ooo yes, Mas." Chandra watched Zein who was busy typing in front of the laptop seriously. While Triska was stroking the body of Mother Chubie who had moved sat on her lap.

While continuing to chew the cake, Chandra focused on the phone he was holding.

"This is Mas Ivan and Ma'am Tia right?" Chandra. Triska approached and looked at Chandra's phone with a frown.

"That's WhatsApp status, huh?" tanyanya while retreating back to where she was and grabbed her phone. Swipe the phone screen to pay attention to the status of Ivan's green application.

His smile expands when he sees a photo of his two best friends with a background in Punclut area.

"Bang, there's finally a date, too" Triska showed her phone to Zein who was grinning wide.

"Anu, Mas Ivan with Mbak Tia's dating again?" ask Chandra.

"It seems like an approach again" Triska said. His lips were endlessly smiling.

"Assynolajet. Again at this gathering," said Satya who had just arrived.

"Waalaikumsalam" they answered together.

"Nih, Deck. I had eaten earlier in the stall," Satya said as she held out a plastic bag to Chandra's hand, who immediately stood up.

"Eat here, Chan. The plates take in the kitchen," Zein said. His hand moved shutting down the laptop while stretching out his hand and wriggling.

"This is Mas Satya, eaten by the cake," Triska offered the cake she had just taken from Zein's room.

"Still, Ma'am," Satya replied. He leaned his back against the wall and began to eat the cake casually.

"Where are you learning to breathe?" satya asked Zein who was laying on the carpet.

"here. The name of the school is Margaluyu. Where did you study?" Zein asked back.

"At Purwodadi. The name of the school is Hikmah. I think one stream with Brother."

"Oh, yes. Same."

"But if I could only feel and see, Bang. Can't communicate yet."

"Must learn more. But it depends on talent too."

Satya nodded. He remembered his SMU days back then. When first following the practice of breathing because invited by one of his friends.

Every Tuesday and Thursday he and his fellow students train with passion. The moves they learn are applied in everyday life.

Sometimes he trains alone when there is free time. He suddenly felt a longing to practice.

"Bang, night training together, yuk?" bring him.

"Can. I want to teach you Triska. He also needs to be able to breathe. Take care" said Zein.

"I also want dong trained," Chandra said as he continued to chew.

"Males ahh ngajarin you. From the beginning can not-can," led Satya with a smile.

Chandra was smiling and also responded to his cousin's pressure.

The reddened sky indicates the time of night is coming soon. The lights in the house started to turn on. Slowly the darkness of the night began to replace the twilight.

After performing the Magrib prayer and having dinner with a corned beef side dish together, Zein and Satya began their joint exercises in the spacious courtyard of the house.

Their various movements take turns. After that Triska and Chandra joined in. Ivan and Tia who came home before Magrib chose to be spectators on the front porch. Dinar had fallen asleep after taking Nani to the station this afternoon.

A sweat on Triska's face. He has not played sports for a long time. Although the movement of the nurse is still not flexible, but still better than Chandra.

Satya behaved fiercely as a teacher so that made Chandra fall several times. But the skinny man was not clawed, he would immediately rise to his feet if he fell.

"OKAY. Stop first, yes, the exercise. We'll call tomorrow night" Zein said, pulling Triska's arm to sit next to her.

Triska took a bottle of drinking water from the floor and gulped it down. Then she took the towel that Tia had stretched out and wiped the sweat that soaked her face and body.

"Racid?" ask Tia.

"Yes. But only one," replied Triska.

"Tomorrow I will follow, yes, Bang," Tia turned to Zein who immediately nodded in agreement.

"Why follow up?" joe Ivan sat next to him.

"Let's smash you into a racem." Tia's reply made the others laugh. Ivan was just messing around with the throbbing.

"Fellow orang, Van. Let's make a group of ghost exterminators," continued Zein while raising his eyebrows.

"Continue posting on YouTube, yeah. I get money once." Ivan's eyes turned shiny at the thought of money.

"Beuhh. The turn of the money was fast he was sinking," Zein threw the pea shell he had eaten.

The bright light from the car lights entering the yard made all eyes turn.

The white sedan parked next to Zein's. When the driver's door opens, all eyes are wide-eyed.

Karin stood up with a raised smile. Tia and Triska spontaneously ran towards him.

From the door to the left a man appeared with a smile. Zein and Ivan soon approach Kang Hamid, Karin's husband.

"Kok, don't you want to come here?" tia shouted while hugging Karin.

"intentionally. Let's be surprised" said Karin.

"I'm a scold, Tea. No need to be hugged" said Triska. He retreated as Karin was about to hug him.

"Come, in. We'll have a chat inside" Zein asked.

Satya and Chandra move quickly spread the carpet in the middle of the house. Tia immediately ran to her room to make a drink. Triska and Zein took a quick shower.

After serving the cold syrup, Tia immediately walked to Dinar's room. Shortly afterwards the two veiled women came out of the room carrying boxes of brownies that he had bought.

"Nginep, yes! We'll talk again until morning" Dinar asked.

"Wad. We're out of here to go to Garut. Tomorrow my cousin gets married" said Karin.

"Can depart from here early in the morning," proposed Tia who immediately got a nod of agreement from Dinar.

"Where, Pa?" ask Karin to her husband.

"Can. Tomorrow we leave at dawn. I also want to rest a little. The journey here is very crowded," said Hamid.

"OK deh," said Karin who immediately got a clap from Dinar and Tia.

"Ntar was staying in my room" interrupted Triska who had just come out of the room. In his hand he carried two packs of wheat biscuits that Ivan immediately seized.

Zein came out along with the entry of a car into the yard. Not long later Rama appeared while carrying a plastic package that turned out to contain two boxes of sweet martabak which was immediately invaded by his friends.

"It turns out it's the same, yeah. Gathering while sharing food," Karin said with a smile.

"still. Especially now that the inhabitants are all eaters," as usual Dinar who was greeted by another laugh.

The night passed without any disturbance from Rima. They chatted until late at night, then everything dispersed and headed for their respective rooms to rest.

Triska sleeps in Tia's room. They continued the conversation until 1am.
