Droplets of Night Creatures

266. Nature Parents

The mysterious guest in the living room of Alam's parents' house seems still silent to make the room feel cold and gripping.

The two parents of Nature who were originally sculpted in the doorway of the middle room also slowly managed to master themselves. Then the two stepped into the living room and sat down before the mysterious guest.

" A... How are you...?" ask dad Nature's nervous.

" Hmm..," said the mysterious guest without raising his head.

Father Nature seems to swallow saliva with difficulty when he hears the answer without the word of the mysterious guest. He looked at his wife hoping she would help him a little.

As if understanding what the husband's gaze meant, Mother Nature stood up and approached the mysterious guest.

" I'm sorry we didn't give you the welcome you were supposed to. You came suddenly and without notice. So we haven't prepared anything yet. Please understand..," said Mother Nature as gently as possible.

Instead of answering the woman's apology, the mysterious guest appears to be clenching both hands that he placed on his thighs. Seeing that made Mother Nature anxious. Then he leaned his body slightly to talk closer to the guest.

But before Mother Nature opened her mouth to say something, the hand of the mysterious guest immediately moved towards the woman's neck. What was surprising was that the guest strangled Mother Nature's neck so tightly that the woman's body was slightly raised upwards.

Father Alam was shocked to see his wife being mauled by the guest. He stood up from his sitting position and rushed to attack the guest. But unfortunately the movement of the father of Nature stopped just like that when the guest threw the body of the mother of Nature towards him. Both parents of Alam also fell stranded on the living room floor.

The mysterious guest stood upright while staring at both Nature's parents with a sharp gaze. Both parents of Nature seemed to tremble a little because they knew that the guest was angry.

" Basic man does not know himself. After getting what you want, you go and forget the sacred covenant. Do you think you can run away and hide from me...?!" said the mysterious guest loudly.

Mother Nature seemed to wake up while holding her neck that hurt. Before he spoke he coughed a few times.

" We didn't run, really !. We're not hiding either. We just need a new place and atmosphere to be able to forget the memories while still living with Our Children. That'sallthatis. We're sure you can find Us so we can't run far, right...?" mother Nature said as she cupped her palms together in front of her chest.

The mysterious guest seemed to be grinning at the words of Mother Nature. Without warning he again blocked the woman's neck tighter than the first. The guest also raised the woman's body higher to the point of making the woman twitch with a leg that kicked her to and fro.

" Sy woman !. Just keep your rotten stratagem because your seduction doesn't apply to me...!" the mysterious guest said angrily.

Father Nature who saw his wife again persecuted by the guest also rose to help. But the guest's speech made Alam's father shrivel.

" Shut up there !. Or I'll break this woman's neck right now...!" threaten the mysterious guest loudly.

" Jangaann.., I beg you to release my wife..," asked Father Nature in a quivering voice.

The mysterious guest slowly lowered Mother Nature's body and released her cheque around her neck. Mother Nature also moved away from the guest. His body seemed to tremble at the sign that he had just experienced a frightening event.

" alright. I've come to remind you. The time of the show is almost here. Prepare an offering or you will be an offering" said the mysterious guest.

" Can we ask for time. We are still mourning the loss of our Son. Let us make a feast to commemorate the centenary of his death. After that We give you who will be the next offering" said the father of Nature with a trembling voice.

" We're not gonna run away. If you don't believe me, you can come and see for yourself what We're going to do later." said Nature's father.

The guest seemed to think for a moment and then nodded his head.

" When was the event held...?" ask the mysterious guest.

" This afternoon..," said the father of Nature.

" It's so sudden. Or have you been preparing for it for a long time...?" ask the suspicious guest.

" It's not sudden at all. We ordered some food to be distributed to the people around us. And the plan is soon the food is ready to be delivered to the house and distributed to the residents.", said Alam's father.

" good. Just do it but on condition..," said the mysterious guest.

" What condition...?" ask father Nature.

" Without prayer, dhikr and sholawat..," said the mysterious guest firmly.

Both parents of Nature looked at each other for a moment and nodded in agreement. The mysterious guest seemed to be smiling with satisfaction. Afterwards he walked out of the house leaving the parents of Nature who could do nothing but sit quietly.

Nature's parents are a married couple who love each other. In addition, they are also diligent and tenacious in working to be able to collect a lot of money coffers. Their home life is harmonious.

Both parents are blessed with four healthy and sweet children. Nature is the youngest child born after twelve years of marriage.

Entering the age of ten years of marriage, they became acquainted with a community that introduced heresy. Both were interested and began to follow the heresy of the community. They assume by following the heresy that their lives can be guaranteed and happy until the end of time.

When their extended family learned of their lunge, the two chose to move to another city and cut off communication with the family.

Their lives as citizens of the community are working as they should. No one suspects the perverse path they are following. They can live together with the surrounding residents without fear of suspicion or shunned.

Until the death of their children that occurred in a row within a period of two years makes local residents begin to suspect them. Moreover, every time their children died, their family business also soared drastically. Residents assume that both parents of Nature do conspiracy with the devil so that it can be rich in an instant.

Until the time their third child who was the brother of Nature was found dead unnaturally, residents were increasingly convinced that they were plotting with the devil. Especially at that time Mother Nature looks not too sad about the departure of her child.

Riled citizens also crowded into the homes of Alam's parents and asked them to confess their actions. Unfortunately Alam's parents had already fled to another city and bought a new house there.
