Climbing Mount Slamet

The Restrained Soul

I smiled when I saw a place that seemed familiar to me. A place I've been to before. I tried to get out of the hole by holding onto the roots of the weeds. The grass is very strong and strong.

"That, that. Please-in. Who is it." a faint voice sounded before I finally fell asleep and was unconscious.

I squirmed, feeling my whole body crumble dim. Grimacing endured the pain and whimpering due to the infinite pain.

"Jenna. Wake up." a voice I so longed for sounded awake.

I heard it, but I couldn't open my eyes. It was heavy and hard to lock.

"Jenna, you hear mama?" yeah, that's Mama's voice. What's Mama doing here? Or I'm just dreaming.

"Mama, Jenna is kangen, Mama." I'd love to yell at Mama and hug her. But it feels like this body is very difficult to move. Even my mouth felt locked so it was unable to get a word out.

"Patience, Mom. Later Jenna will realize itself. We are patient and pray a lot. It seems like his soul hasn't fully returned yet."

"Souls? Going back? So what does all this mean?" I heard their voices, but I couldn't chim in. I want to tell you that I'm okay.

"What makes my child unconscious, sir? But Mr. Kromo saw for himself, right? My son moved." Mama's voice sounded with her sobs on. Yeah, I know that Mama's crying this time.

"It looks like Jenna's sister has eaten food from nature there, Mom. So that's why his soul hasn't come back completely." answered the voice of the man I knew named Mr. Kromo.

I could still hear their voices talking near me. It's just that, strangely enough, I couldn't answer or join their chat. I could only hear Mama praying hoping I would wake up. Papa's always calling and asking me how I'm doing, and Robby. Yeah, it turns out there's Robby here. Apparently he survived. It's just, I didn't hear Tommy's voice. Robby's taking care of me right now. I even heard, Mama left me when Mama wanted to go when there was a need.

"Jen, let's wake up. Let's go home soon. I won't go to the top again if you keep this up." Robby's voice sounded raucous. It felt like I was laughing when I heard him sob a little when he asked me to come to my senses.

"Mas, you're not conscious yet?" mr. Kromo's voice was heard again.

"This is what it is, sir." asked Robby to Mr. Kromo.

"We will hold a ritual to summon her whole soul, Jenna's mother, Mas.

"Rituals?" moreover this. I'm sick of mystical things. I want to go home. I'm already here, it's just that I can't move.

"What ritual, sir?"robby's voice represented my curiosity.

"Oohh, not some weird ritual. We will only pray with the help of the elders here to ask for the return of Jenna's sister to wake up. I don't seem to have guessed wrong, Jenna is back. It's just that there is still a bond from nature there, maybe Jenna's mother ate the food given from the creatures there." explained Mr. Kromo made me remember the food given by Grandma Rampi.
