In a fairly neat room, Andien sat on the spot


sleeps. He's still freaked out. Why until now he has not heard


the body found by police at the scene. Though it's already day


seventh and maybe if the person he hit died will definitely spread


sickening smell of carcasses.


Andien bit his lip while recalling the night incident


that's. It seemed like he had indeed hit someone there. But why


the person he hit was invisible.


Even up to seven days the police did not find a body or carcass


around it. But Andien's thoughts continued to be piqued with whispers


strange who dyed his sleep. Like a very heartbreaking moaning sound,


the sound of sad cries and cries of pain that out of nowhere.


Andien cranky in room. Fear itself with


disheveled hair. Cold sweat poured out from his forehead. Nibble


her lips and covered her face with both hands. It's like he's looking


a white shadow approached him. The shadow seemed to haunt him


day and night.


”Andiiien..” call Faridah from outside. Andien's stuck


looking at the door of his room. ”Let's wake up, Andien. You're not going to campus?” ask


mama again.


”Iya, Ma...” sahut Andien with a heavy voice. With


lazy he got out of his bed. Take a towel from the hanger and


towards the bathroom. Andien flushed his body with warm water.


When he finished he put on a towel. Looked at his face


in front of the mirror. Andien was surprised to see a mirror. It's not his face, it's his face


horrible old woman.


”Aghhkkk Andien screaming. It's moving backwards.


Lips brawl. Faridah went into Andien's room.


”What's up, Andien?” ask Faridah. Andien crying in


farida's Hugs.


”Andien was afraid, Maa.” cried as much as he could.


”What are you afraid of, Honey... No


there's nothing kok.”


”Andien saw him, Ma... uuu.”


”Who is he?” Farida frowned. Removing the face


Andien was still frightened.


”That woman, Ma..”


”Which woman? Nevermind, darling. You're delirious


times. No one is.”


”But, Maa..” Andien is still sobbing.


”Already, darling. You change clothes first. You should go to


campus.” says Faridah releases Andien's embrace.


”Mama wait at the dinner table yes. We had breakfast together.”


Andien nodded. Then he got up and went to the closet

at the dining table.


”Andien... Tomorrow you have to go back to New Week. Ye


take good care of yourself, dear..”.


”But, Ma... Andien is afraid of being alone,”


”What are you afraid of anyway. We're granddad grandfathers and


grannies. Grandma will take care of you,”


”Iya, Darling. Mama's work in New Week is still a lot.


The patients there need a mother. Your grandparents are there?”


Andien sighed heavily, scraping his morning breakfast.


Today his appetite has diminished. The scary shadows are still playing


in mind.


On campus Andien sat pensively. Gordi.


”Why are you, Andien? Bengong aja,” scold Godry.


Andien gave a heavy sigh. ”I'm scared, Dy. That horrible figure haunts me,”


”You mean?”


”Arwah gentayangan,”


”Whose army?”


Andien shakes. Eyes glazed. ”I don't know, Dy. That face


scary,”


”Already, Andien. Forget those shadows from your mind,”


”I can't, Dy. Every night that face haunts me,”


Gordi. Staring at Andien closely. He tried to comfort Andien.


They take a walk to the park.
