Comploters Not Afraid of Ghosts
Chapter 22: The Headless Ghost



The next day at school, as usual Toha had arrived


early in the morning. He was already looking forward to meeting Ari, Wira and Nara. There's something


want him to convey.


“What's Ha?” ari asked curiously when she met Toha in front


parkland.


“Iya, I had a chat last night with bokap,” said Toha. “Ntar


I'm klo Wira Sama Nara has come.”


Before long Wira and Nara came almost simultaneously.


“What's the matter?” ask Nara. Because Toha is not usually as serious


these.


“Toha there is info from his bokapnya,” said Ari did not want long


pleasantries.


“Gini. I'm telling you the same story yesterday


bokap,” Toha starts explaining. “Kata bokap, the ghost we see in front


yesterday's fence came from the building across. He wants to get into our school, he,


but can't. Because our school has been fenced in with people from


padepokan.”


“People in white?” ask Ari.


“Iya. No more ghosts could


get into our school,” added Toha.


“Keep why yesterday Nara was cold in the hall?” ask the Hero


spontaneous.


“Yes may.. Nara is indeed sick again,” replied Toha theorized.


Nara seemed to not accept it, but she chose to be quiet.


“Then the cat Ari saw yesterday?” ask the hero again.


“Ya can aja.. Ari wrong see,” replied Toha. “Sorry to Ri.


Not how I am. But I think our school is safe now.


The people in the store were great.


Now it's Ari's turn not to accept.


“Toha, how the hell are you!” suddenly Mr. Min came


them.


“Why Mr Min?” ask Toha.


“There are no cats! I was looking from end to end


no cats,” said Mr. Min. Then he walked to the parking lot while still


grumbled.


Ari became more curious. Because yesterday he really


seeing a black cat in the hall. While in the courtyard was seen the headmaster


receiving his guests, the troupe from the cultural service. One of the


they started taking photos of the school building in front.


In the first hour there is a computer lesson. Today for the first time, Ari's class tried the space


new computer in the basement. Ari noticed Nara.


In this room, he felt cold. But it looks like Nara


doin' fine. Ari also had time to pay attention to the walls of the room


that's. He still remembered his father Toha's story about this basement. But


Ari did not feel that feeling. And the computer teacher's already starting to open up


the lesson. Just a few minutes, the principal and some of his guests from


the culture department entered the room. He asked permission from the teacher because of his guest


want to see the school building, including this basement.


“This room used to be unused,” the principal


explain to his guests. “It has been around since Dutch times. Now we function


for computer lab.”


Some guests took photos of the room. Then when the head


the school and its guests were about to leave the room, one of the guests asked something.


“There is a saying this basement is connected to


aisle made in the Dutch era,” asked the guest. ”Say that hallway


connect with other old buildings.”


“That information may not be true,” replied the principal.


“We have this old school floor plan archive. There's no picture of the hallway there.


I'll show you to Mr.”


The principal and his guests left the room


to see the other part of the school. The teacher continued his lesson.


After school, most students do not go home


because tomorrow is their school birthday. They are busy preparing


events for tomorrow. Ari and Toha who participate in extracurricular painting, busy


preparing an exhibition of their paintings. So did Nara who came along


the photography. Incidentally a painting and photography exhibition was held in the hall. Whereas


Busy training karawitan. At 5 pm, Wira finished training. He's coming home


foregoing. Ari, Toha and Nara are still busy in the hall. At about 7 p.m., Ari and


Toha is done with the work. But Nara's not done yet. There are some


photos that have to wait for the print.


“Still long Ra?” ask Ari to Nara.


“More recently the most. Just wait 5 more photos,” replied Nara


still putting photos on the walls of the hall.


Ari and Toha went home first.


“Nothing. There will be a driver I wait,” replied Nara.


Then Ari and Toha moved out of the Hall. But when at the door


hall, Ari saw the cat again. Black cats. The cat ran in front of him


and into the hall. Ari glanced at Toha. It seems Toha didn't see the cat.


Ari was deliberately silent. He would not argue with his friend about the cat


he saw for himself.


Ari and Toha arrive in front of the school. Toha intentionally left


the bike's in the parking lot. He will take the bus with Ari because the day is too long


nightly. While waiting for the bus on the sidewalk, Ari and Toha are like hearing the voices of people


groaning in the back. They also look back. It is unclear what


they see, because of the dark atmosphere around the sidewalk. But there are people there


sit curled. That guy's wearing a suit. And both of his hands are


moving something behind his neck. Ari and Toha try to pay attention


that fellow. He groaned louder, like a man in pain. Almost simultaneously


Ari and Toha retreated. For a long time they could see the man's face


disintegrated. They just found out, that's the figure they saw yesterday morning. And things


the swipe behind his head was some kind of machete. Blood is pouring


from the neck of the figure and splattered flowing on the pavement. Ari and Toha


wanna run. Until the figure's head rolled down not far from his body.


Spontaneous Ari and Toha take a thousand steps. A new bus arrived at the stop


situ. Ari and Toha get on the bus even though the bus is not really there yet


stop over. They hope the bus will take them away. At


the bus window, Ari and Toha still saw the figure on the sidewalk reaching


looking for his own head lying on the sidewalk. The bus is far away


walk. But Ari and Toha were still trembling sitting on one of the benches. Ari


quickly get the little book. As always, he should be calm


himself by drawing. Then he started moving his pencil. Toha


I watched Ari draw. Picture of a broken face figure wearing a suit


trying to cut off his own head.



Ari and Toha are calmer. They're still staring


Ari's Images. Then Toha remembered Nara.


“Eh, Nara how is Ri?” Toha voiced, “He came home late


situ also.”


Ari immediately picked up her phone and called Nara's number.


But long time he wasn't connected either.


“No lifting Ha,” says Ari. “Maybe lobet times.”


Then Ari sends a message to Nara to carefully return home


in front of their school. And Ari remembers Tata. As Ari knows, Tata is coming


extracurricular KIR (Teens Scientific Works) and they do not hold anything


for the school anniversary tomorrow. But he's still worried. Ari


calling Tata number.


“Halo Ta,” Ari said after her phone was connected.


“Halo Ri, still in school?” answer Tata on the phone.


“This is home. Again on the bus. You're nothing, are you?”


“Nothing. Are you okay?”


“Nothing. What are you doing again?”


“Again watch TV mama. Mama again in the kitchen.”


“O, okay. You be careful when passing in front of the school.”


“Iya. There's a pacing in a suit right?”


“Iya. Anyway you do not go home malem yes.”


“Iya. Uh, Ri. Mama I'm back here.”


“O, okay. You take care yes, bye”


“Ok. You also yes, bye.”


Ari was still looking at her phone. At least he was relieved


call Tata. Then he saw that the message had not been read by Nara.


Nara just came out of the hall. Around 8 o'clock was his job


new kelar. Arriving at the parking lot, he was greeted by his driver. A few minutes the car was out


school gate. Nara sat in the back. He just realized his phone's running out of battery.


While trying to find the power bank, he suddenly saw people crossing in


car front.


“Awas Sir! Someone crossed over!” Nara yells at her driver


because that guy was right in front of his car.


Driver Nara spontaneously stepped on the brakes to stop the car.


But he was confused because he saw nothing in front. Nara's Turn


suddenly screamed loudly. Karena just saw the guy who crossed


it was in front of his car. Actually the man did not cross, but


drifted. He's wearing a suit, his head's broken. And he's pinching his head.


“What's up neng?” The driver of Nara is confused to see Nara


trembling. At the back, there was a car honking.


“Nggak... There's nothing Sir..” Nara's voice is still shaking. “Udah…


Cepet road Pak.” Nara wants to get out of there.


Nara's car left the front street of the school.
