Home In Cemetery

Chapters 13. Granny Crazy

"What happened to you?" asked the granny again realizing something was wrong with Bu Lela.

Bu Lela shook her head.

"Can't this mother talk? What has Miss Lela done? The grandmother poked Bu Lela with a question because the woman only answered the question with a headband.

Bu Lela nodded.

The grandmother looked at Ms. Lela's face intensely and then said, "Yes, you better eat now."

The grandmother got up from her seat and walked to the back. Moments later returned to Bu Lela's side with 2 plates in her hand. One plate contains white rice mixed with corn rice and another plate contains salted fish with a terasi sauce next to it.

"Eat, this is all I have!" The grandmother placed the two dishes in front of Ms. Lela and went back to the kitchen to get some water.

The grandmother came back again with a glass and a kettle filled with warm water.

Bu Lela nodded and directly fed the rice and salted fish to her own mouth. At first, Bu Lela looked tasteless, but in the second chew she even felt the food made by the grandmother was quite good.

"Eat me first! If you want cold water you can pour it out of that jug."

The grandmother got up from her seat again and walked outside. I don't know what that old granny did, Bu Lela didn't care at all. All he wanted now was to quickly finish his meal and immediately leave the area and return to the village.

Ms. Lela had just finished her meal when she saw the grandmother returning with a handful of half-dry wooden twigs in her lap and scatter the wood in her yard to dry and be used as firewood.

Seeing that, Bu Lela felt sympathy and wondered why the grandmother was only living alone.

"Where's family? Or is that grandma just a kara?" Bu Lela shook her head, it seemed like any sentence would not be able to come out of her mouth because several times trying to talk did not work as well.

Bu Lela poured the water from inside the jug into the glass and directly gulped it down. After that, get off the stage house and get closer to the grandmother.

"What's wrong?"

Bu Lela tried to answer the question with a voice turned out to be unsuccessful as well. Finally the woman tried to use sign language even though it was very rigid.

"You want to go home?" It turned out that the grandmother understood Bu Lela's body language.

As usual Ms. Lela replied with a nod.

"Go home and get your son-in-law out of the house!"

Ms. Lela was shocked to wonder if the grandmother knew of the incident that happened last night.

Once again Bu Lela nodded. He did intend to take the child and his daughter-in-law away from the house considering that there had been something wrong there.

First the disappearance of sister Anita and found in a state that has died not far from the house occupied by Faiz and Karmila at this time and the second the presence of a female figure in a wedding dress covered in blood that bothers her overnight.

Bu Lela did not know what happened but the woman guessed that the invisible figure who suddenly appeared there last night would not be sincere anyone who occupied the house other than her by oneself.

"But what was that revenge thing last night? And this grandmother also testified that Karmila's uncle was not the murderer of Anita's sister. What the hell is this really? Don't these grandmothers know the matter of the house and even get involved in it?"

"Why is that so?!" sniffed the old grandmother.

Bu Lela gasped at the granny's question which immediately disperse her daydream. The grandmother looks angry at Ms. Lela. It seemed like the old woman knew that Bu Lela had been making a bad thought to herself.

Ms. Lela clenched her hands together in front of her chest in exchange for an apology then pointed at the old grandmother before finally pointing towards the house occupied by the child and his daughter-in-law now.

Bu Lela scratched her head, puzzled as to why the old granny suddenly insisted.

"All you need to do now is to persuade your son and daughter-in-law to leave this place" the grandmother advised again.

Bu Lela nodded and took the wallet she had tucked inside her bra and took out ten thousand bills and offered the old grandmother a thank you for helping and giving her a ride eat her.

"There is no need for me to sincerely help anyway I still have enough money for my own living expenses," refused the old grandmother.

Ms. Lela remained pushy by putting money in the grandmother's hand and closing the granny's grip a little pushy.

"I told you not to." The grandmother threw the money into Bu Lela's chest until the woman was forced to take the money back.

"Then I say goodbye to Nek," said Bu Lela of course this sentence can only be said in the heart and Bu Lela uses body language to convey it to the grandmother. Ms. Lela then shook her hand.

"Oh yes for a moment, I will take your change," said the grandmother then turned around to take the money in her house.

"No need for Grandma, the change of money is for Grandma only," said Bu Lela inwardly as she moved her hand to give a code that she refused the money back.

"All right, thank you. Remember you must try to persuade the child to wait for you to leave the house!" The grandmother showed Ms. Lela for the last time.

Bu Lela nodded and immediately turned around. The woman walked away from the old grandmother's stilt house towards Faiz's house. may force yourself to go back there even though the feeling of fear still haunts him however he must do what was warned by the grandmother because indeed the house occupied by Faiz and Karmila today really it has a weirdness in it.

Arriving at Karmila's house is shocked to learn that her mother-in-law is back in a mute state.

"Mother why?" ask Karmila.

Bu Lela gave the code for Karmila to give herself a notebook and a pen.

"What did you ask for? Sorry Karmila didn't understand." Karmila was completely unaware of the movements her mother-in-law had shown before her.

Miss Lela tried again. He drew a rectangular flat object in the air and then moved his hand over the object he had painted in a wishful thinking like writing something.

"You mean, you asked for paper and a pen?" faiz asked, trying to guess.

Bu Lela immediately nodded enthusiastically.

Faiz immediately took the paper and pen and gave it to Bu Lela.

When the paper and pen were in Bu Lela's hands, she wrote to Faiz and Karmila to leave the place immediately.

"Why do we have to leave this place we've had a hard time buying this house when left empty?" ask Karmila.

Ms. Lela wants to write that she experienced something strange last night in the house. However, her hand suddenly could not be moved so Bu Lela finally changed to write that it was at the request of the old grandmother that Faiz and Karmila wanted to survive.

"Order old grandma?" faiz asked dismissively.

Bu Lela nodded.

"Here you don't have to trust the old woman. Grandma is a crazy person whose nonsense is just haphazard," Faiz concluded.

Seriate.
