Comploters Not Afraid of Ghosts

Chapter 89: Something that Haunts the School

Ari sat down in front of her study desk. Tonight he's just putting his new books on the shelf. For the rest, he never stopped thinking about his meeting with Tata tomorrow in the school cafeteria. Then the phone sounded. There's a call from Nara.

“Halo Ri... How are you, any word from Toha?” Ask Nara on Ari's phone.

“Mmm, not yet..” replied Ari.

“Ah used to be a child. If asked by her father to like malesan,” said Nara upset.

“Well maybe a sempet ball Ra... Why Ra?”ask Ari plain.

“How come lo Ri... Know for yourself what we saw this afternoon... You guys are serious not anyway?”

“If not, call Toha now.”

“Males ah's. I'm most males must chase people who don't have the initiative.”

“Yes, I called Toha.”

“Iya mending lo who called Ri.”

“Iya deh..”

“Ok, ntar takainin me yes.”

“Ok.”

Ari shut the phone. She understood, Nara was so when she was upset with someone. Ari then starts calling Toha's number.

“Halo Ha, how? Any info from mr lo?” ask Ari without further ado.

“Mmm, yes it is. If it is underground, it is they can not enter Ri... They are from the port...The whole king..” replied Toha on a mobile lazily.

“Emang in the port there is the kingdom of jin huh?” asked Ari again trying to pry further.

“Kata bokap anyway, there are many colonies that... There is indeed a dumping place jin..”

“Kayak ghost shadow that time huh?”

“Ya so... There are many who want to rule.. If this king of jin, said bokap he ran away from the greater jinn kingdom again in the sea sono.”.

Ari was stunned for a moment. How connected their school is to something so terrifying. Only he and his associates know.

“Means this genie king is the most powerful there huh?”

“Ya that's it.. But I'm not afraid.. Precisely I want to prove my ability... Cuman males aja same bokap...”.

“Why?”

“Jusrtu bokap said, I can't mess around.. We're not messing around right Ri?... We're on a mission..”

“Iya anyway.” But Ari actually agreed with his father Toha. The more you know, now Ari is getting worried. Something bigger may be haunting his school. And no matter how Tata changed, Ari was always worried about Tata's safety.

Then there's another call coming into Ari's phone. It was from Tata.

“Eh Ha... Ntar first yes.. There was a call from Tata.. Ntar I called you again,” Ari immediately disconnected his connection with Toha.

“Halo Ta,” Ari directly answer Tata call.

“Hai Ri, haven't slept?” soft Tata sound on Ari's phone.

“Not yet Ta... Mama you again out yes Ta?”

“Iya, my extended family is gathering at the bude place.. Want to discuss again the problem of people who ngaku-ngaku my family Ri..”

“Still not getting around the problem Ta?”

“Before Ri... It seems more serious..Just I want to tell you.So it was the afternoon after school, right in the parking lot, there were people calling me Ri from outside the fence… Those mothers..”.

“He called your name?”

“Iya Ri.”

“Means she knows you dong Ta?”

“Know deh Ri... Keep me samperin.. Seems like he wants to say something to me.. But I called mama.. Kan I said to mama, there are mothers who call me… Mama I immediately told me to go all the way from the guy.. But the guy love me shawl..”.

“Keep you take the shawl?”

“Iya.”

“Mama you know?”

“Nggak.”

“Certain his shawl where?”

“Still in my bag.”

“Means actually dong Ta, there are people who ngaku-ngaku your family, who said they are still descendants of which kingdom tuh.?”.

“Tahu deh Ri... Not too I think also anyway.. Eh tomorrow so we meet in the canteen,” said Tata divert the conversation. It seemed that he was already in no mood to talk about things beyond his reach.

“So is Ta.. But you are sure?”

“Kok you so doubt it's Ri?”

“Mmm how do you Ta... Ntar what people say... Continue to be your mama how?”

“Ri, we can prove to people, to my mama too. Whoever we are, whatever people think, we can do our best, for ourselves and for others. Yesterday you were able to rank one Ri. Ntar we should be able to enter a favorite university yes Ri.”

“Iya Ta,” For a moment Ari was amazed by the words Tata. Maybe after meeting Kak Karin a few times, Tata's attitude became more mature. And as usual, after talking to Tata, Ari became more excited. Ari can't wait to meet Tata in the cafeteria tomorrow.

Ari walked through the school gate. This morning he stepped his feet. The first hour of rest, he'll meet Tata in the cafeteria. For the umpteenth time, for a moment Ari saw the roof of the school building. Under that roof is the principal's room. As of this moment, Ari hoped he would never see the fireball again. Then he looked around. Some of the newly arrived students were walking in the schoolyard. Tata's words are still in his memory. He wanted to prove himself to be like them. He hoped that one day Tata's mother would accept him.

While passing the bike parking, Ari meets Toha. Toha's face looked tense.

“Ri I think I saw something deh,” Toha voice half whispered, his gaze leads to the end of the bicycle parking.

“See what lo?” ari asked seriously as she looked towards Toha looking over. But Ari sees nothing and his feelings are mediocre.

“So there is a child in uniform, kirain class 10, because the clothes look new. Bener-ener rich items burn marks.. keep his eyes red” says Toha.

Not yet Ari asked further, not far from them, Nara came with a rash step.

“Ri!... Ha!... Earlier in the parking lot I saw something,” said Nara while trying to adjust her breathing.

“See what lo?” ask Ari spontaneously.

“She was in uniform, but her face was a real item,” Nara said.

“Iya, I also see there,” Toha pointed to the end of the parking lot.

“Iya, let me see him earlier road from the car park in the direction of bicycle parking,” Nara added.

Ari is still in a frenzy looking for what Toha and Nara saw, but she still sees nothing. While around, the students who arrived began to many. Ari, Toha and Nara are forced to hold back their talks.

“Let's talk in class,” cetus Nara.

“Bentar Ra, I must wait Astri first,” Toha.

Ari agrees. The three of them waited until Astri arrived on his bike. Ari, Toha and Nara try to be calm when Astri joins them. They didn't want to make Astri worry. As Toha, Ari and Nara wait for her, Astri feels that there is something, but Astri deliberately does not react to anything. Instead he was happy, in the morning had been awaited Toha and his friends even though not one class. And Ari hopes Tata doesn't see what Toha and Nara see.

In class, Ari, Toha and Nara meet Wira. On the back bench, Toha immediately told him what he and Nara saw.

“If he is from the car park to the bike parking, means his direction to class 10 dong,” cetus Wira,”Ha, dong picture, want to know how his form..”.

Ari took out a small drawing book and pencil and handed it to Toha. And Toha began drawing what he saw earlier in the bike parking lot. Girls wear school uniforms. But his face and body were pitch-black.

Alternately Wira and Nara saw a picture of Toha.

“Yes, this is what I saw in the car park,” hiss Nara.

While Ari isn't so enthusiastic, just glimpsing a picture of Toha.

“Ri, please give your pictures to Pak Riza and Kak Karin,” Toha said.

“Lo aja who love Ha. That's lo,” sergeant Ari.

Toha, Wira and Nara are a little surprised by Ari's attitude. But the teacher had already entered the classroom and the first hour lesson was about to begin.

During the first hour break, Ari had already hurriedly headed to the cafeteria. Tata was there, sitting in the corner waiting for Ari.

“Hai Ta,” Ari greet first.

“Hai Ri,” reply Tata with a fractured smile and sparkling eyes.

Ari sat in front of Tata while her gaze was still observing around. Drako's group was seen in another corner watching them. But Ari saw Tata from earlier just a smile to pay attention to Ari's attitude that was wrong. Gaby and her two friends passed in front of them. Gaby greeted Tata first and Tata cheerfully responded.

“Eh you want to eat meatballs right Ri?” tanya Tata offers.

“Iya.. Can Ta,” replied Ari plain.

Then Tata ordered meatballs for the two of them.

“Ri, sometime we eat meatballs near the psychiatric clinic yuk,” invite Tata.

“Iya is Ri, we will first eat meatballs there,” replied Tata. His smile was more fractured.

Ari looked at Tata for a moment. From there with Tata, everything went so normal for him. Then Ari started telling me about what Toha and Nara saw this morning.

“It looks like our school is always there so-so yes Ri...” said Tata.

“Iya Ta...” Looks like Ari won't be discussing that anymore. He regretted having told it to Tata. Because Ari just wants to see Tata who always smiles cheerfully.

Then their meatball order came. Ari and Tata have forgotten what Toha and Nara saw. But before long, in the cafeteria section close to 10th grade, some students ran towards the hallway of the classroom. Then Toha came in a hurried move.

“Ri, there was a child fainted in class 10,” Toha's voice mixed with his hunting breath.

Then Toha rushed towards the 10th class. There was already waiting for Wira and Nara. From far away Ari could see Wira was already wearing her ring.

“You're not there Ri?” ask Tata.

Ari looked at Tata. They enjoyed their time together in the cafeteria.

“Nggak Ta... Let alone,” replied Ari,”Maybe it is not an incident,” Ari tried not to be affected by the hoopla that occurred in one of the 10th class.

Tata actually felt amused to see the pretentious Ari no matter what was going on and martial arts were always in front of him.

“Ri, I think I want to know what happened.” Tata has held her necklace to remove from her neck while smiling at Ari.

“Ta... You sure?” ari asked with a worried face. He had already raised his hand to prevent Tata from removing her necklace.

Tata is getting amused to see Ari who is so worried about him. He wanted to take off his necklace to tease Ari. And Tata actually took off her necklace in front of Ari. Ari is now so worried. Because with all the information he had in his head, he felt something was going on in his school. But considering the events during the studty tour, Ari so let what Tata do.

“Udah Ta.. Wear again the necklace,” said Ari stammered.

“Iya Ri..” says Tata sok obey Ari request.

But Tata had not had time to put up his necklace, his hands looked trembling.

“Ta, are you okay?” ari asked worriedly.

Then Tata's eyes widened, her body tensed, her breathing began to hunt. Spontaneous Ari got up from her seat and quickly attached the necklace to Tata's neck.

“Ta, you why?” ari's anxiety begins to peak.

Tata also tried to regulate his breathing. His hands are still trembling. While Ari saw the students who were around started to notice them.

“I saw something Ri...” said Tata with a vibrating voice.

“Do you see what Ta?” ask Ari.

Tata's still limp. He was trying to gather the rest of his strength to talk.

“I saw Ri's hand...” Tata's voice was broken,”His hand was big..” Tata wanted to continue talking, but his voice was hard to get out.

“Quiet Ta... You must be calm..” Next to Tata, Ari tries to calm Tata. While more and more students around are watching them.”

“His hand is very big Ri...” this time Tata's voice is more organized,”And in that hand there is his eye..”.

Ari is tense. He didn't expect Tata to see anything like that. Then Ari looked out of Tata's nose blood.

“Ta, you nosebleed..” Ari is now really anxious.

Tata held her nose and on her finger was a bloodstain. Quickly Ari took a tissue on the table and cleaned the blood in Tata's nose. Ari took Tata to the toilet. Ari escorts Tata to the front of the toilet.

Some of the female students who went in and out of the toilet noticed Ari who was standing in front of the girls toilet. Ari doesn't care. All he cares about is Tata's safety. But for a long time Ari's feelings started to feel bad. He looks around. Three female students were seen coming out of the toilet. But Ari saw one student move faster. He's not walking. He's hovering. Girls in school uniforms, their bodies and faces dark. That's the figure Toha drew this morning. Ari immediately panicked and started calling Tata. One female student glared at Ari because of Ari's strange behavior in front of the female toilet. Then Tata looks out of the toilet. His nose was clean of blood stains.

“Ta, are you okay?” ask Ari worriedly.

“I'm fine Ri,” replied Tata. His voice is normal.

Ari watched Tata from head to toe. But it looks like Tata is fine. And Ari sees Tata's necklace still on her neck.

“Ta, you saw something inside,” asked Ari.

Tata shook her head,”Emang why Ri..”.

Actually Ari does not want Tata to be more anxious, but Ari has to tell it.

“I saw the one in the picture of Toha,” said Ari.

“Ngak... I don't see anything Ri,” says Tata.

“Ta, from now on you have to promise.” Ari voice is serious,” Promise not to take off your necklace..”.

“Iya Ri..”

“This is serious Ta... This is not kidding... For a second you can not take off your necklace..”.

“Iya.. Yes Ri..

Ari takes Tata to her class. Throughout the passage Ari observed around, afraid that something might appear

just there. Arriving at Tata's class, Ari talks to Astri for a bit. He asked Astri to take care of Tata. If there's anything Ari asks to be notified immediately. And Ari noticed that most of Tata's classmates were seen supporting Tata. Ari is not worried about Tata being in her class.

Arriving at her class, Ari sees Toha, Wira and Nara talking about something on the back bench.

“Ri, you know..The fainted child, in UKS, when he cried hysterically,” said Toha so Ari

conjoined.

“Terus?” ask Ari.

“Iya continues now he has been taken home,” replied Toha.

“Where to Ri?” ask Nara.

It seems that Nara does not like, at a crucial time like this, Ari prefers to be alone with Tata. But Ari

understandably. For that he will not talk first about the incident that befell Tata.

“Anyone has entered our school,” said Wira.

“Ghost in black-faced uniform..” Ari,”I saw it.”

“No way he's from the underground passageway,” said Toha,” the passageway is impenetrable.. Bokap also said so.”.

“Or else bring a ghost to school,” Wira guessing.

Ari remembered the fireball they had seen at school. But at this moment it was difficult for him to relate all the events they had experienced. And Ari no longer wants to talk about things like this with Tata.

“O Yes Ri, you were sought after Mr. Riza,” said Toha,”Say back from school you were told to his room. Ntar kasih

know my picture to her Ri.”

Ari just nodded. He'll definitely show a picture of Toha to Mr. Riza. But that was not what was troubling his mind at the moment. After what happened to Tata earlier in the canteen, Ari so thought again to stay away from things like this.

Back to school, Ari to Mr. Riza's room. But because in the teacher's room there are still many other teachers who have not returned, Mr. Riza took Ari to the motor park. There Ari immediately gave a picture of Toha.

“So now Toha is the picture, not you?” said Mr. Riza while observing the picture in his hand.

“Yes, it just so happened that I did not see Sir,” Ari explained.

“I am also arranging a schedule to dismantle the floor in the principal room,” said Mr. Riza,” After the incident this morning, Ms. Mulyani asked to expedite her schedule. Don't tell anyone about this Ri.”

“Iya Pak.”

“Ok, keep checking if there is anything Ri.”

“Iya Sir.. But Sir I want to say something to Mr. Riza..”.

“What's Ri?”

“Sorry in advance Sir, if I may want to resign from this mission.”

“You mean?”

“I don't want to be in touch with things like this anymore Mr.”

Mr. Riza looked at Ari for a moment.

“It's about Tata ya Ri?”

“Pak Riza know about Tata?”

“Kak Karin will always give info to me Ri.. Mmm actually I have no problem anyway Ri... Cuman I still need you to watch over your other friends… If not try me ask Kak Karin first yes.”

Then Mr. Riza pulled out his phone and started calling Kak Karin. Mr. Riza deliberately stayed away, looking for

a quieter place when talking to Kak Karin. Ari had noticed Mr. Riza. For a long time Mr. Riza's face looked tense. Finished closing the phone, Mr. Riza approached Ari. The tension was still on his face. He was confused to talk to Ari.

“Ri, earlier Kak Karin said to me..” Slowly Mr. Riza said,” He actually really agrees that you do not join this mission again. I think Tata many stories to Kak Karin about your relationship.. But..”.

“But what Sir?” ask Ari curious.

“But actually Kak Karin asked me to cancel the mission or whatever you guys are going to do Ri.”

“Why Pak?”

“Kak Karin saw something in this school that could endanger the safety of all of you..”.
