New Ghost?

Ary's rome feathers still goosebumps perfectly. There was a fear in the heart that slowly began to appear. He often heard stories about the ghost of Rima that floated here and around the complex. However, only this time did he look directly.

Chubie's Mother's growl slowly disappeared. Ary took him into the room. After taking the phone he went outside again while still holding the black-gray cat.

He sat in front of Triska's room. Leaning against the wall. His eyes looked around the room cautiously.

Chubie's mother slept in a circle on her lap. Seeing the fat cat sound asleep makes Ary feel calm again. At least Rima has gone away.

Slowly she flossed herself by folding her hands as a pillow. A cold gust of wind from the open door made him fall asleep quickly. Not realizing that Satya and Chandra are home.

A gentle pat on Ary's arm woke her up. Rubbing an eye then makes sure that it is the original Satya by pinching the back of Satya's hand.

"Lha! How am I pinched?" satya protests while rubbing the former pinch.

"Sorrys. Want this mastiin really you," replied Ary while getting up and sitting cross-legged.

Chubie's mother had woken up first and was now eating at a cat-only food dispenser Triska had provided near her bedroom door.

"Someone was visiting?" ask Chandra who came up from the kitchen. In his hand were three plates.

"Ho oh's. Rima showed up" replied Ary.

"Tumbens? Yesterday he never showed up again" said Satya. His hand moved to remove three packs of rice from the plastic bag. Then put them one by one on a plate that Chandra stretched out.

Ary's appetite reappears when he sees the rice field on a plate that Satya sticks out. In spirit he grabbed the plate and opened the paper package. Clucked when you see grilled chicken and parchment waving among the rice piles, jackfruit vegetables and green sambel typical of rice padang.

The three of them had a lunch that was almost crazy. Occasionally chatter and laughter can be heard up to the fence of the boarding house. Making some people who passed by look over because of curiosity.

Meanwhile, the anniversary of Rima's departure is about to begin. Ustaz and the invited guests were present and seated neatly.

After the opening ceremony with the words greeting from Fahmi representing the extended family of the lateumah Rima, then the study began.

Men's guests filled the living room up to the front porch is quite spacious. The ladies filled the tent.

Dinar and friends were sitting in the living room. To the left of Dinar is his mother Rima and Teh Siska, his wife Fahmi. Uwa' and Aunt Rima were sitting across.

Some of Rima's cousins seemed busy going back and forth to the garage through the side door of the house. They were preparing a buffet table for the guests' treats.

The tears of Dinar slowly began to fall. Repeatedly he rubbed with a tissue. So too with Rima's mother. The middle-aged woman cried without a sound.

Siska embraced her mother-in-law's waist as she rubbed the clear fur that flowed profusely across the adult woman's cheeks.

"Istighfar, Mom. Neng was calm there" whispered Siska.

Dinar was embraced by Nani who sat to his right. While Triska embraces Karin's weeping shoulder to the right of Nani.

Mr. Bakar, Rima's father entered the central room. His eyes were dewy looking at the wife who was crying bitterly.

The old man approached his wife and rubbed the head of the woman who had been loyal to him for decades with great affection.

"Teh, the study is over. The buffet is ready?" ask Mr. Bakr to Siska.

"Teach check first, yes, sir," replied Siska as he stood up.

Dinar and Nani also wake up and follow Siska towards the kitchen. Triska and the others also helped.

After making sure everything was ready, his father Rima invited guests to enjoy the dish.

Triska, Ayu, Tia and Isti stand guard at the first buffet table. Dinar, Nani, Karin and Siska stand guard at the second table.

Cousins Rima moved quickly add various side dishes at both tables.

The enslaving guests overwhelmed them a little. However, eventually everything can be finished and run successfully.

Towards Magrib the guests began to disperse. Rama and friends who were about to go home finally canceled the plan to stay at Karin's house, and fulfill Pak Bakar's request to stay at his house.

Finished performing their congregational Magrib prayers to the pavilion that has been prepared.

The men immediately scattered in the living room which was fused with the television pavilion room. While the women take turns using the two available bathrooms.

The dark Sunday night for three single men in kosan made them finally decide to walk around the city of Bandung.

After getting tired of spinning finally Ary decided to go home. On the way he pulled over the car in a minimarket at the main door of the complex.

"Down, yuk!" take it to Satya.

While Chandra has sailed to the dream ocean in the middle seat.

Satya removed her seatbelt and opened the car door. After closing the door he walked over to Ary who had first got out of the car and entered the minimarket.

Satya chose a few packs of instant noodles, bread, sweetened condensed milk chocolate, and two packs of biscuits.

While Ary bought some cans of sardines, corned beef and a packet of abon.

They met at the cashier's table and paid for their groceries.

Then they went out and swung their footsteps towards the car.

Satya who opened the door first seemed stunned when she saw Chandra sitting with a frightened look. "Why, Chan?" tanyakanya.

Chandra just points back with his left index finger.

Satya immediately stared. Ary who was about to get into the car finally retreated back. The fur of the romance stands along with the appearance of a woman who sits right in the right corner seat of the back seat.

"Astagfirefull!" satya. Spontaneously his right hand opened the middle door and pulled Chandra out of the car.

Then Satya closed the door and stayed away from the car, sitting with Ary and Chandra who were still pale.

"That's ... A rhyme?" ary asked in a whisper.

"No. It was the figure I had seen in the clothesline above Ivan's room" Satya replied in a whisper.

"Are there two ghosts in the room?" Ary asked again.

"Eitherway. I'm confused too. The appearance of these two ghostly figures in the near future made me think. It seems like this is a clue as to why Rima suddenly appeared," Satya replied as she wiped the sweat on her forehead.

Without realizing it, his body was already a little wet. This is the effect of deep power science that he used to make a magical fence in the car.

"Bang Zein, how is this?" inner Satya.
