DRIBBLE

PRESENTIMENTS

The next day, the busy building workers in Tahfiz's house were walking as usual. In the courtyard on the right side, a building has half its walls formed. Likewise, the mosque building in the backyard has been seen the walls of stone appear to rise.

In the backyard in the other corner under the palm tree, Haji Abas with the Brotherhood, ustad Sofyan, ustad Jalal and ustad Hadi appeared to be seriously discussing the incident last night. The four oustads doubted the recitations of the Quran verse they read on the call of Haji Abas which had no effect at all on Genderuwo's creatures. Precisely Haji Abas and the ustad was even hit by the counterattack of these subtle creatures.

"Sir Haji, why is the verse of the Chair that we read that has no effect or cannot expel Genderuwo?" ask ustad Ikhwan who is the other three ustad.

"It does not affect the Brotherhood, the possibility is only two. First, when reading the verse we are not in a state of confidence or in a state of fear and panic so that our hearts and minds become gamang which ultimately our hearts are not sure. What happens is just a normal reading voice that makes the karomah of the verses do not appear as it should," said Haji Abas with a regretful face.

"The second could be Genderuwo's creatures have very high strength" continued Haji Abas.

“Then how in the future Mr. Haji, I am afraid that these delicate creatures will disturb the students here,” said ustad Hadi.

“I have not had time to think until there ustad, but yes it could be if the creature was disturbed by our activities here,” said Haji Abas.

“Then what will we do Hajj sir?!” sela ustad Ikhwan's.

There was doubt on the face of Haji Abas to answer him, until the atmosphere became silent for a moment. Haji Abas took a deep breath and breathed heavily while saying; “We are God's most noble creatures and cannot give up or if with the class of demons, jinn or merkayangan. We're beating him up!” firmly Haji Abas then looked at the lush foliage of the banyan tree in the other corner followed by the eyes of the four ustad.

That morning Mr. Suro sat daydreaming at his flea book stall after cleaning and tidying up his sales books. The shadow of Karbala constantly disturbed his mind ever since the house was abandoned by Thunder and his mother. He is very worried that the new occupant will get terror from Karbala, after Mr. Suro himself only learned a day ago from the story of Thunder when delivering the transfer of Thunder and Mamah Karmila to his new home. Guntur said that the person who bought the house is the owner of the foundation and the house will be made Tahfiz house, where there will be religious activities such as teaching, reading the Quran, recitation etc.

Pak Suro's anxiety is not without reason, because Karbala is not a subtle creature that is mediocre. Karbala is a subtle creature of the Genderuwo group is a supernatural creature that is hundreds of years old and has a level of strength above the average of other subtle creatures. Even Mr. Suro himself felt he would not be able to if he had to clash with Karbala. If it comes to dealing with Karbala, it must be a person who has a very high diabolical strength to be able to conquer it. Or Karbala will only submit to the only one who is able to conquer it without bloodshed and devotion.

“Morning is daydreaming sir!”

A voice suddenly sounded making Mr. Suro jerked as well as disperse his daydream about Karbala. Mr. Suro stuttered his eyes turned towards a young man who was already standing across the large table where his books were on display.

“Thunder?! Ah make me surprised, hehehehe..” said Pak Suro blushed embarrassed by the ringing of a small laugh.

“Tumben morning-morning to Gun kiosk, no longer busy?” keep up Mr. Suro.

Mr. Suro turned to look at Thunder's face deeply with a serious face waiting for Thunder to continue his speech.

Guntur also told Mr. Suro about the unpleasant feelings he had experienced in these two days and also told the same dreams that appeared two nights in a row. In his dream Thunder heard clearly a heavy and sullen voice but he did not see the figure of the owner of the voice. The voice asked him not to leave the house he had sold. In the dream, Thunder's mouth seemed to be locked so that he could not make his voice to ask the figure.

"Surprisingly the next night the same dream came back and the voice said the same thing so as not to leave the house" Guntur said with a serious mimic.

Mr. Suro was increasingly made to frown ever deeper. In his heart arose prejudices and conjectures about the figure who was in the Thunder dream.

Thunder again continued to tell his mimic which means that two nights in a row the dream came. Thunder had thought that the sound was his papa, who did not want the house sold, but when remembering the voice in the dream it did not belong to the sound of his papa. He himself passed through the guilt that enveloped his heart over the house of his papa heritage that he sold.

Meanwhile, Mr. Suro gasped to listen to the story of the Thunder dream, his face immediately changed implied horror by frowning deeply. In the heart of Mr. Suro raised concerns that he had been thinking about. It seemed that those thoughts that plagued his mind would truly appear to be a tragedy of a great event.

"Is it still possible if you buy Gun's house back?" suddenly Mr. Suro interrupts.

"Bought him again?!" Thunder gasp.

From the look on his face showed a repulsive expression, then replied firmly, "It feels very unlikely for me to do sir. Like licking your own spit that's been wasted."

Mr. Suro was speechless, in his head as if dead-end there was no other way out to make him bow down lethargic full of worry.

"Why sir, did the voice tell me not to leave the house?!" Tanya Thunder looked confused.

Mr. Suro choked up unable to say anything in a moment. How he explained to Thunder that it was not because of a house but a banyan tree that caused the sound to ask him to return.

It seems that Thunder itself is still not aware that the existence of Karbala inhabiting the banyan tree is very crucial. Though he himself has faced Karbala directly, but it is not considered too important, especially since Karbala calls himself his father. Since then, Thunder has harbored a deep hatred for Karbala.
