*** chapter 1 ***

A simple house made of wood is located on the edge of Banyu City. The courtyard of his house is about a hundred meters wide, with a view of the corn fields surrounding the house.

The nearest neighbor distance of the house owned by Mr. Barata Yudha's family is quite far, about two hundred meters, because it is located in a remote area on the outskirts of the city.

The forty-year-old man worked as a corn farmer. He lives with Tammy, his beautiful wife. He worked as a dressmaker. They have two children. The first child was a 10-year-old boy named Nathan Prawira Yudha and a daughter named Setta Amora Yudha was almost a year old.

That night in the rain with strong winds that continued to open the windows of his house with force, Setta cried with urgency. He did not want to escape from his mother's arms.

"Help Mama dong, Tan! Hold your sister for a moment" said Mama Tammy, asking Nathan for help reading a novel by Sherlock Holmes in her hand.

"Indeed Mama want to do the hell use Satan all?" nathan asked who always mocked his sister with the call of the devil.

"Mama wants to go to the bathroom right now I can't stand mama mules' stomach, when mama wants to invite Setta to hang out on wc continue to mama ngeliatin so?" Mammy's mom started to pitched resentfully at Nathan.

"Yes, yes, here I take care of! this is also if he wants me to carry." Nathan grabs the tiny Setta from his mother's arms.

"No, try playing first!" Tammy immediately rushed to the bathroom

However, his steps stopped to close the open window and tighten the key so that it would not open again.

Little Setta cried again loudly while holding Nathan's body and hid his face in Nathan's chest at that time.

"Are you afraid of the same riddles?" nathan asked as he swung Setta in his arms.

A flash of black shadow flashed across the wooden wall of Nathan's house behind his body.

"Kok, like someone's passing by anyway?" his murmur glanced towards his right and left side.

Setta's deception tightened like fear of falling or escaping Nathan's sling.

Suddenly a shadow of a disembodied, long-haired figure appeared on the wooden wall behind Nathan's body. The boy turned his body around, but the shadowy figure suddenly disappeared from his sight. Setta cried when Nathan turned around.

"What are you afraid of, deck? it's weird like it's bumping mulu, brother would be afraid of the deck."

Nathan looked again to his right and left with a feeling of anxiety and tension.

Plus the atmosphere outside the house feels gripping with the sound of heavy rain accompanied by occasional lightning and strong clouds increasingly make the weather around the increasingly cold bone piercing.

Nathan swung his little brother in his arms until he fell asleep. Maybe because of tired of crying and late in the swing of the brother, the little girl became sound asleep.

Suddenly someone patted Nathan on the shoulder and immediately made him gasp in fear.

"Ah Mama ngagetin!" nathan exclaimed in an annoyed tone mixed with relief from seeing the figure of his mother.

Mama Tammy just smiled as she opened her hands to grab Setta.

"Ma Ma, the devil is bobo, I want to go to the room yes, I want to sleep, Mama want to wait for papa to come home?" nathan asked, who answered Mama Tammy's nod with a smile reaching for Setta from Nathan's arms.

Nathan rushed towards his room, he climbed in his basket and enveloped himself until it covered his entire body. Better he go to sleep soon than fear haunts him that night.

As Nathan tries to start sleeping, someone slaps Nathan on the back several times while calling his name.

"Tan, wake up and ask, Where is Setta going?" Mammy's mother tried to grab Nathan's blanket and open it.

"What the hell is this, was Setta the same Mama?"

The boy changed the position of his body that was already sitting on his bed.

"Lho, Mama just finished from the bathroom, how can you say love Setta to Mama while Mama just got here?"

"Ma, Nathan didn't lie, I gave Setta to Mama."

Nathan spoke with conviction.

A silent atmosphere was created at that very moment. Anxiety and feelings of fear that include both along with the sound of rain that began to subside.

The knock on the door shocked the two, Tammy's mama immediately rushed over to greet someone knocking on her door. Nathan followed his mother's footsteps. Fear has enveloped him.

"Assalamualaik."

Papa Baratha came in a wet raincoat standing at the door. Then he took off his raincoat and hung it on a nail that was stuck outside the wall of the house.

"Getishalam."

Tammy and Nathan's mama's voice along with trembling lips.

"What's wrong with you, Ma?"

The middle-aged man was immediately astonished when he saw anxiety and fear coming to the face of his beautiful wife.

"Setta, Pa, Setta..."

Mama Tammy couldn't hold back her crying that she couldn't hold back from earlier.

"Setta why? Sick setta?"

The husband shook his wife's shoulders in front of Nathan, who was also crying in fear.

"Setta why, Tan?"

Now Papa Barata turned to Nathan for answers from his son.

"So Mama went to the bathroom, kept Mama tipped Setta with me, kept mama came, I love Setta with mama, then I went to the bedroom, went to bed, but Mama came to my room and looked for Setta" Nathan explained.

"Where to go?" papa Barata asked, getting anxious.

"Nathan knew Setta was the same mom, but said she didn't accept Setta, so the kid lost his reward."

Nathan wiped his tears with his right arm.

"Keep if it's not the same with whom are you Setta, Ma?" ask Papa Barata again firmly.

Mama Tammy just shook her head and cried so much that she hugged Papa Barata.

"Papa must meet Ustad Yusuf, you wait here!"

Barata immediately rushed to put on his rain suit again.

"But Pah..."

"Papa must hurry, otherwise we will lose Setta and never find him again in this realm."

Baratha cut off his wife's words and rushed on her blue duck motorbike and started the engine.

"Be careful, Pa," said Tammy's mother in tears.

Nathan clenched his mother's waist when he saw his father go to meet Joseph's ustad. Nathan already understood, if his papa to meet the ustad sir, it's a sign, Setta was brought by a subtle creature.
