After watching the news, I felt uncomfortable. I closed my eyes repeatedly. I saw the clock on the phone showing at 9 p.m. The sound of the lastri snoring collides with the sound of crickets outside.
"Sleeping once pastri sleeps while I can't sleep and is confused what to do"
I tried calling my son in the room and we talked for an hour.
"Mom, better mom sleep. It's 10 o'clock now, I don't want you to get sick"
I was moved by my son's words, only this time I felt that my son loved me so much, probably because we had never been far away before.
"Alright, take care of your health, son, in 3 weeks you try to visit you in the village. Assalamualaikum"
"Waalaikumsalam ma'am"
I felt the cold in my room. Not as usual.
"I'd better pray first before going to bed"
I got out of bed to get water.
"The freshness of this ablution water, it seems like my sleepiness is gone when I called earlier I was sleepy" I murmured in my heart
When I went to the room I saw 1 family sitting in the tv room. They all sat down in a down position. I know what I saw was not human. I ignored them and I left 3 rakaat prayers.
I really don't feel so solemn about my prayers tonight. I heard a shrill voice crying, I heard again the sound of crying and screams for help repeatedly.
I'm trying to shift my fear. I'm still scared even though I'm used to seeing ghosts. The five of them stood at the door, but with a non-creepy form. Then I read al-fatihah to them as soon as they turned like smoke. I also tried to sleep because the clock showed me at half 12.
When I finished my ablution and entered the room, there was a woman wearing black basic pants and a red blouse at the door of the lastry room.
"Bu Sarti. please help us"
"Oma. help papa"
I saw the little boy and his brother pull my clothes as if to justify their situation. Then they disappear. I was really in shock because nothing like this ever happened in the village. At most her late husband or her parents who came to her.
I then prayed tahajud very solemn and fell asleep on the prayer mat. I heard birds chirping and I woke up.
"O Allah I have not prayed at dawn, I fell asleep apparently"
I grabbed my phone, it turns out the clock shows at 5. I went back again to fetch water. I wet my face, hands and feet, feeling fresh to wake these eyes from drowsiness.
I prayed as usual without interruption as I did last night. After praying I went to the kitchen I saw the 5 family members sitting in front of the tv. Strange they're back. What are they trying to say.
I left them to the kitchen, I cooked rice and cooked clear vegetables. When I opened the fridge I was shocked to see a piece of my head asking me for help.
There was a cry coming back. I close my ears and say go to them. His voice was so clear that it even popped into my mind.
"Why sar? hey don't be afraid it's me pastri? are there any more cockroaches here? said lastri innocently
"Yes tri. not ap.."
The figure of the woman standing right behind the lastri, she extended her hand to me.
