Corpse In The Well
episode 15
“Look down, nothing will happen to Kyna and Dama.”
“Good, Nyai, thank you su—”
“My sequence is done, but, not because of this incident, you can easily trust other creatures. They can take advantage of the situation.”
Nyai Lie's words were right!
“Of course, Nyai. Thank you for taking care of Kyna as long as I talk to the creature.”
Nyai Lie smiled as he nodded. He flicked his shawl, then read out a sentence that was always spoken before he vanished and re-entered the painting. Yilya realized, her first meeting with Nyai Lie, she was very surprised and easily judged that Nyai Lie was a very terrible figure. However, Yilya misrepresented something.
During this time, in addition to Ki Barjo and Bu Nirma, Nyai Lie always helped Yilya to solve all the problems she faced. Without Nyai Lie, it was possible that everything that happened was just gray, it could not be passed in time. Yilya gave a smile, she rushed to hold Kyna and carried her into the room.
Dama was engrossed in playing lego, he looked so shocked when he saw Kyna unconscious. Dama asked, “Kak Kyna why, Mommy?”
“Sister is not papa, dear. Dama please help mommy, yes. Dama merselin toy Dama first so Kak Kyna can sleep here.”
Dama nodded, she cleaned her toys quickly.
Yilya understood very well that Kyna was still shocked at what she had seen. He is very different from his sister. If Dama dares to talk to a strange creature, then, Kyna does not. The little girl could only see, but was unable to interact. Kyna will lie down if she can't see anything bad.
The ringing of the cell phone made Yilya speed up her movement to lay Kyna on the bed. “Dama look after Kak Kyna, yes. Mother wants to pick up the phone first.”
“Iya, Mother.”
The phone was from Mas Arthur. Can he just contact Yilya at this time? Before Yilya presses the green button on the phone screen, Yilya immediately becomes suspicious of her husband. How could Mas Arthur have gone with Nida at the same time? If not for that night he wanted to immediately perform the ritual calmly, Yilya would have asked a lot of things to Mas Arthur.
“Mbak! Mas Arthur accident!”
Yilya's mobile phone just fell when she heard the bad news delivered by Nida using Mas Arthur's mobile phone. What else, this? Not enough of what has happened to Yilya?
His anxiety began to increase when he again grabbed a cellphone and listened to the words thrown by his sister-in-law.
“We cannot go home in a short time, Ma'am. Mas Arthur must be treated, if not, Nida does not want to take the risk if anything happens with Mas Arthur.”
“What happened, Nida?”
“Complicated, Mbak. To be sure, we can't go home fast.”
The phone connection was decided unilaterally by Nida. Yilya grumbled, she must know how her husband's condition. However, when he contacted Mas Arthur again, the number could no longer be reached.
***
Mas Arthur's number was completely unreachable.
Yilya immediately went to Ki Barjo's house to tell him about Mas Arthur. However, when he arrived in front of Ki Barjo's house, it turned out that Ki Barjo had already known the news of Mas Arthur.
Ki Barjo smiled. “Don't worry about Arthur. Stay calm and do what you're supposed to do.
“Yilya can not be calm if the situation of Mas Arthur out there is not good, Ki. Yilya is very worried.”
“Focus first to your original destination before Arthur gets home, Yilya. Don't waste a chance.”
“Sorry, Ki. Yilya was only afraid of Mas Arthur's condition. Yilya was confused, what should Yilya do again?”
“At the moment, you are almost to the point where all the problems will be approaching. Everything that will happen as a result of your own actions.”
“What's up, Ki? Yilya has never done anything.”
“Until now, do you not understand, Yilya? Both of your eyes are still closed. You haven't been able to see the treatment of others with a different point of view.”
“Ki ... Yilya really did not understand. Yilya is very afraid if one day a bad incident happens.”
“Beware of something that can make you even more clueless. Sooner or later you will realize that seeing something from one point of view is not enough.”
“Good, Ki. Yilya apologizes.”
Ki Barjo nodded, he gave a powder that was placed into a glass bottle. The powder is deep black and has the scent of jasmine flowers. Yilya received the powder while staring at Ki Barjo questioningly.
“Powder that can make you aware of something. You'll find out how it's useful.”
“How can Yilya use this powder, Ki?”
“By sprinkling it right above the head of the figure you suspect.”
Yilya was very confused by Ki Barjo's answer, until now, only Mas Yono was the only figure that Yilya suspected due to the paper that Mas Yono gave. Meanwhile, Yilya still insisted on not putting the slightest bit of suspicion on Mas Arthur. Yang Yilya knew, he knew Mas Arthur very well, Mas Arthur could not do something bad even though it could not be denied, Yilya had to try to forget the murder of Bu Eni. However, to date, Yilya has not known why Mas Arthur could have committed the murder without giving a guilty look.
“Yilya .. don't trust easily. Someone you meet could be hiding behind a mask of kindness.”
“Good, Ki.”
“This powder only works for twice sprinkling only. You should use it for something that is really suspect.”
“Yilya was convinced by two people who were meant by Ki Barjo. May Yilya's conjecture be correct, Ki.”
“Good. Go home! Kyna and Dama need your time. Don't worry about Arthur, he's fine.”
“Yilya said goodbye, Ki,” replied while nodding and reaching for Ki Barjo's arm to shake hands.
The powder that Yilya grasped kept him watching as he stepped foot towards the house. Yilya slightly flashed a smile, the ring that Ki Barjo just gave him had greatly helped him to defend his life. He hopes that this powder can help him again.
Yilya realized something that Ki Barjo had just said, she did not have to worry about Mas Arthur. What he should be worried about is himself and his two children. She had to hurry to solve all the problems before the arrival of Mas Arthur so that there was no suspicion from her husband.

“Mother, we are so, right, to the night market?” kyna asked with a smile.
“We take a break, yes, dear. Market—”
“But, Mommy said that we will be there tonight. Mother does not forget, right?”
“Mother doesn't forget, kok.”
“Yes that's it we go now, Kyna want to buy cotton candy.”
Kyna's whining made Yilya sigh heavily. Finally, Yilya agreed to the wishes of her baby. He goes to the night market with Kyna and Dama. Not to forget, Yilya invited Bu Nirma to accompany her. Lucky at that time Bu Nirma had free time until finally he was able to accompany Yilya.
Along the way to the place where the night market was located, Kyna and Dama continued to chatter cheerfully. They hold hands, even, every time they see something that can invite laughter, they look happier. Meanwhile, Yilya and Bu Nirma were silent and occasionally chimed in on the words that the children said.
Yilya was very happy to have been good friends with Bu Nirma. Bu Nirma can be a pleasant speaker and never disseminate every word that Yilya uttered. However, for some reason, immediately the shadow of Bu Eni's face appeared in his haapan. Yilya recalled her initial encounter with Bu Eni which was very annoying.
“Bu Nirma ..” Yilya said slowly, he began to open talks.
“What's up, Mom?”
“I want to ask about the murder charge of Bu Eni's body. Was Mas Yono really proven guilty?”
“No, Yilya,” reply Bu Nirma briefly.
“Then, what happened?”
“Just relax, residents found some strange objects around the river. Allegedly, Bu Eni drowned into the well and died on the spot. His wounds and body that were cut and destroyed were terrible due to the wild animals that were in the river.”
“Batang perang?”
“Iya. Your husband is really good at hiding his bad behavior.”
“I am confused, Ms. Nirma .. how could Mas Arthur kill Bu Eni?”
“I don't know, Yilya.” Ms. Nirma chimed in as she flashed a smile. “What's for sure, Arthur will be safe even if he killed Bu Eni. Your husband is very cunning.”
“I'm afraid Mas Arthur is in danger, Mom. Especially now that Arthur has business. Nida already informed me that Mas Arthur was in an accident.”
“The accident was just bullshit.
