HUDDLES

The Happening in the Bus

On the way home, I was actually haunted by curiosity. What about that Om Rio expression. Why Om Rio was so shocked when he found out about my age. Or even more surprising was when I told him my dream.

I'm trying to guess. What my Om hides.

It seems that Rio om has found out that indeed I should have gone to that village. It seems that Omku is also keeping a secret.

I know from how Om was talking and the look on his face shows panic and worry.

Ah that's my business. What is important now is to prepare all the needs that will be brought to the village of Silurah. And I will soon recover from this strange disease.

In front of me there are various kinds of breakfast menu.I more glance at the bread and I take chocolate jam and then I lay it on the bread in my hand.

‘’ Morning Bi, mama uda departing yes?’’ I asked Bi Marni, while I layered the chocolate jam.

‘’ Morning is also non, yes non, Mom has left this morning. Until no breakfast.’’ He said while returning to the kitchen

I gobbled up bread while thinking about my mom who was always busy. If I wake up, then my mom can't see me. If I'm at night, neither do you see me. Because my mom always comes home when I'm asleep.

I'm trying to understand the situation. It seems like seeing Mom is just a glimpse. Even on holidays, my mom is always busy with her laptop.

Sometimes I feel my mother's negligence when I'm asleep. I don't know if I'm delirious or if it's true that my mom is defending me.

Why is Rio not here yet. Thought. In fact, there are only a few days left to go to the village of Silurah. Did I say it myself same time mom. I thought in my heart

Ah no way! Definitely not possible! Yaudah let me just tell my mom. My dreams to myself.

I hurriedly devoured the last fresh bread and continued to drink the full glass of milk, but I only drank half of it.

Then I shook Bi Marni's hand in complete disdain. Although Bi Marni is only my housekeeper, I consider Miss Marni to be part of my family.

I deeply feel Bi Marni's affection sincerely. At least, have accompanied my lonely days, if mama hadn't come home yet.

I stepped out of the house and was about to leave for college. And of course discuss the trip to the village of Silurah with Anggi and Vito.

Without me waiting for him. The blue bus that is my subscription, has arrived at my housing complex.

I went up and found an empty seat. And my eyes were fixed on the seat next to the brown veiled woman, empty ...

I headed straight for her and the woman let me sit next to her.

The bus was traveling at normal speed. My mind was back with my mom. How can my mom trust me? Telling me a dream I've been through probably won't be interested. Moreover, I have to tell you my plan to go to the village of Silurah. It will be completely opposed by him. For reasons I think don't make sense.

Hopefully Om Rio can persuade mama and her heart will melt. So that allowed me to go to that village. Without worrying about my mom.

My two best friends seemed very excited. They bluntly said he could at once vacation, enjoy the very natural countryside.

Moreover, he said it was a challenge for them to explore the place, which they did not know. For me it doesn't matter, it comforts my heart a little.

Again the bus stopped to drop off passengers. As usual, some people will get off and some will get on. Makes me hiss, because the heat is starting to feel.

And of course there will be many stops later.that's not good to ride public transportation, and all I can do, is close my eyes while waiting for the bus to go back.

I don't care about the noise of people on the bus, I don't feel like I'm falling asleep. An atmosphere like this makes you sleepy.

I was shocked, because my head hit the window of the bus. My head hurts. I sighed for a moment, finally arrived huh hissingku. I stood up and left the chair.

How surprised I am. When I found out there was nobody on the bus, except me. Are people on the down? There's no way, if people are down. Why doesn't anyone wake me up. Trus, why stop bus. Even the college driver was not in his place.

I turned my eyes out. The atmosphere outside was very quiet. No one passed by.

The places look empty. Like a disaster, people have left the place.

I set out my intention to get out. In confusion, what actually happened.

Suddenly I heard the voice of people singing, his voice soft and soft. Penetrating my hearing made me hold my hand.

The song was like a Javanese song, penetrating my mind that was being overwhelmed with confusion, to make me creep.

The voice slowly became clearer. The atmosphere that was previously hot, had now turned cold. Until my horse's fur stood up instantly.

The sound of singing was getting closer and then there were footsteps. The footsteps were walking on the bus. At that moment, I saw a female figure like Ronggeng from a distance.

Yes it is Ronggeng. I sat back in the chair, closed my eyes, covered my face with both hands.

I try to take a look. The ronggeng seemed to be walking towards me. I felt that Ronggeng was standing next to me.

I feel that Ronggeng is watching me. Slowly I opened my eyes and I saw feet that were so pale.

My heartbeat felt uncontrollable. slowly the figure walked again, followed by the sound of my heartbeat back to normal.

But with a breath that was still irregular.I turned the neck, looking for Ronggeng it and it turned out to have vanished behind the bus door. How relieved I am.

Unceasingly I was shown figures that make the heart want to be dislodged.

I saw a black figure waving back. Exactly with past events in the library.

This time, it was me that he was craving.I rushed down, then I coughed because of the smoke that suddenly came to ambush me.

Beleaguered the place, so I didn't see the black figure again. I walked but it was like there was no end. This foot moves on its own. But my mind is a little conscious.

I pierced through the white mist, until my eyes ached. Then I don't know what's next.
