Chapter 18

Bugh

"Aghkkkk!"

The bouncing Pelita shriek fell down as she wanted to step forward. Pelita opened her mouth to yell at Tia's spirit to stop doing that.

But his voice suddenly disappeared, Pelita tried to wake up again, trying to stand up and go forward again to approach Boy or the spirit of Tia. But the same strangeness happened, Pelita again bounced like a wall that held her back from getting closer to them.

Pelita rubbed her aching arm from the impact to the floor.

'My body hurts, is this mpi or what?' asked Pelita in her heart of confusion.

Pelita saw the spirit of Tia continuously turned to her left. But when Pelita looked in the direction where Tia's spirit kept looking like it was listening to someone. Pelita didn't find anyone or anything there.

Pelita shook her head, because if it stays like this then Boy will not survive. Pelita does not want to happen like her mother Arman, or events like leaving Tia. Pelita knew it would happen, but could do nothing.

By gathering all his courage. The pelita stood back up, moving backwards towards the back. And ready to take a step to break through the transparent wall that has since prevented him from being able to help Boy.

"Bismilbornrahmanirrahim!"

Pekik Pelita who immediately ran towards the transparent barrier wall.

Buggghh

"Aughk!"

Pelita opened her eyes, and she was currently on the floor. When Pelita looked around. He realized that this was his room. He fell off the bed.

Chequelek

The sound of the door opening after before sounded like there was a sound of people running.

"Daddy...!"

Panji immediately ran to Pelita who was sitting while holding her waist that hurt.

"Why you?" asked Panji who immediately helped Pelita get up and led her sister to sit on the edge of the bed.

"You fell?" ask Panji again.

Pelita was still confused, it was evident from the expression on her face. Pelita even repeatedly looked towards her surroundings.

"Bang. But not like a dream!"

Panji was immediately dumbfounded, he had actually caught some of the strangeness of his sister since waking up from his coma for seven days after they had an accident the other day. Panji felt very sorry for Pelita. His sister was like a confused person, and liked strange things that made no sense.

Panji immediately hugged Pelita and gently rubbed her sister's head several times to calm Pelita.

"It's okay Pelita, it must be just a dream. Don't be so....!"

"Boy died bang, strangled Tia's spirit!"

Pelita's words that interject Panji's words not only make Panji stop gently rubbing Tia's head. But it also made Panji instantly goosebumps hearing what his sister had just said.

"Boy..?"

"Yes bang, tonight... hour...!" Pelita then looked at the clock on the wall of her room.

Pelita remembers she also saw a clock on the wall of the hospital room where Boy was being treated. Next to Tia's spirit, there's a wall clock there. And Pelita saw the time at that hour was at 1:15 in the morning.

"Now...!" lirih Pelita who saw the clock on the wall of her room also showed the same time.

Pelita rubbed her face violently, Pelita cried. Again he could not save the irang in his vision.

And when Panji with his parents to Pelita's room. The pelita was still crying even sitting on the floor while leaning on the side of her bed.

"Darling!"

Anisa immediately ran towards Pelita.

"Darling, what's wrong?" ask Anisa who has not received an explanation from Panji.

Because Panji panicked, and only told his parents when he woke them, that Pelita was crying and would not be silent even though Panji had persuaded him.

"Dear girl, it's mom.. Tell me what's up, son!"

The pelita then turned to look at her mother. And hugged her mother tightly.

"Some have died again ma, but Pelita can't do anything!" lirih Pelita's.

Anisa, Tommy and Panji look at each other. Anisa then patted Pelita on the back slowly.

"It's fate, son, don't think too much. It was their destiny!"

Said Tommy who also gently stroked the head of his youngest child who seemed very sad mixed with fear. Tommy could see Pelita's hands trembling, and his tone was so poignant.

Tommy and Anisa feel they can no longer wait to go to Tommy's cousin Usman's house.

Tommy was planning to leave in the afternoon after work. But it seems like it can't be delayed. After dawn, Tommy finally went to Usman's ustadz house.

While Pelita was still sleeping in Anisa's arms. The pennant also did not leave his sister's room. Until the sound of Panji's phone rings.

When Panji looks at his phone screen. It turns out that the one who contacted Panji was one of the police officers who handled the case of Boy and Tia.

Because Pelita and her mother are still sleeping. The banner came out of Pelita's room to receive a phone call.

"Good morning sir!"

Panji greeted while closing the door of Pelita's room.

"Good morning, we're from the police station. We want to say that a key witness on behalf of Boy died last night at 01:15 a.m. We asked Panji's brother to go to the police station today on Thursday morning. Because this case is likely to be closed!"

That's what one of the police officers said. Panji was quite dumbfounded by what he heard.

"Okay sir, I'll go to the police station!" Panji Word.

And that phone call was cut off. Panji was silent. He looked towards the door of Pelita's closed room.

"How can it be like this, how can Pelita... !"

Panji paused what he was muttering right. He was too surprised to know the time Pelita told him about when Boy died. It could be exactly the same as what the police officer who just contacted him said.

Panji rubbed his face rough, as he recalled what his sister had told him about the three young men who he said walked down and looked strange.

Panji remembered the three young men who were said to have drowned in the river. Then the second one, Panji remembers he heard Pelita screaming and when Panji came to him, his sister said she saw Arman's mother hanging herself. And that happened, and then the last one was about Boy who died at 01:15 in the morning.

Panji immediately shook his head quickly.

"No. This must be a coincidence. How could someone die in a spirit strangle?" panji murmured that was currently completely confused.
