HUDDLES

After that incident

From the fickle clock, and then the sound of the door being pounded, the cracked glass arrived intact again, to the appearance of a foot that can only be heard by myself and felt by me.

Makes me wonder exactly what happened to me? now those questions are in my mind, so that no one can answer them.

I have fallen asleep, with millions of questions surrounding myself.

***

Meanwhile, Miss Sara the woman with shoulder-length hair walked down the stairs. She is Ratih's mother, a woman who has to take care of her children alone without a husband beside her.

Make it demanded by day work. She became a double role, as the mother of Ratih and also became the head of the family.

Go to the office in the morning and go home in the evening. Especially if he gets overtime, then he will come home late at night. And when he came home late at night, he no longer saw Ratih. Ratih was asleep in his room.

He pulled a towel and poured water on his body. Then relax his tired body. After taking a bath, he returned to Ratih's room to check on her condition.

With an uncalled feeling, In Mom's heart Sara wondered, is Ratih okay now?

What made her daughter look scared after coming from the bathroom. Or her daughter's story that sounds wrong to her.

Now Miss Sara looked at her daughter's face with pity. Now, the coach is asleep. Then Ms. Sara tidied up a few books that were a little messy, and Ms. Sara came down again, to continue her work.

The clock is at 21:00 and Ms. Sara is still busy with her laptop in the middle room. Her tang started typing something, Then Bi Marni came to bring her a cup of tea.

‘’ this tea Bu.’’ Say Bi Marni while putting it on the table

‘’thank you Bi, put it there.’’ Sara replied without looking at her.

‘’ I stay recently ya bu’’

‘’eh Soon Bi ‘’

Then straighten his body, and take the tea and gulp it down. Then, put it back to its original place.

‘’I want to ask you something about Ratih. Is he okay during the home Bi?.’’

‘’ non Ratih, fine with Bu,’’

‘’ kok I'm a bit worried yes the same Ratih. After the incident just now, Ratih suddenly became frightened so. maybe Ratih only sauces aja yes. And think no-no.’’

‘’Iya Ma'am, just now, I was shocked youh after hearing nak Ratih yell. I want to go straight up. Luckily, Mom came home. How did he say, Mom? Train why?’’.

‘’ He saw people's feet. he said.trus said the mirror in the bathroom cracked, after I saw no crack at all Bi, trus he said the bathroom door digedor gedor, whereas no one gedor gedor.’’

‘’ Waduh.. I became creepy hear it.’’

‘’ Trus how is bu?’’ bi Marni asked

‘’ It's OK. Now he's asleep.’’

‘’But yes Ma'am, what should Ratih be brought only to smart people. Non Ratih it is plagued by the demon ma'am. Trus nih yes, sometimes I hear non Ratih talking to someone in his room, obviously there is only non Ratih in his room. Trus there are also people who laugh in his room non Ratih, the sound of people singing in his room non Ratih. I'm so afraid of anything happening the same non Ratih Bu.’’

‘’ There is no way Bi, Bi Marni is just there, so follow Ratih gini anyway, Ratih is just soy sauce and because of soy sauce. So think of the no-no. Udah Bi Marni just calm down, I was contacting my friend who is in Singapore to find the right doctor to heal Ratih.’’

Bi Marni continued her work in the kitchen. While Miss Sara, immediately close the laptop. And get out of the chair, then step into the room to sleep.

Sara's mother was still worried about Ratih, but she didn't believe in anything like that. It makes no sense to argue.

***

The sound of a wall clock clanging, breaking the silence of the night. The corners of the room looked quiet. It was pitch-black without any light hitting it.

Then the shadows of objects in the house seemed to play ria, there were also those who stood sculpting. Or the sound of tap water dripping netes from the sink, often makes people who hear feel scared.

But the silence did not last long, the voice of Adhan began to echo from the corners of the city. Trying to disturb the human heart to do its duty.

Bi Marni is awake. As a maid in the house, she had to get up early.

Miss Marni is not good to relax, while Miss Sara and Ratih are very good to her. Followed by the sound of the door opening, Miss Sara was awake.

And a few moments later, I heard water gurgling from the bathroom. Sara's mom is taking a shower, indicating she'll be leaving for work as usual.

***

Ms. Sara who was eating a plate of white rice, plus a morning menu side dish on it. then stopped her chewing, Then remembered that Ratih had not yet shown the stem of her nose.

Then stand up and go to his room. He was locked on the door of his room, but there was no answer. Then Ms. Sara turned the algae on the door, and stepped in.

‘’Ratih, wake up early’’ as you walk towards me

My mother's voice woke me up.

‘’ Uda morning yes,ma ‘’ I replied in a rather raucous voice.

now my body feels helpless, my head is dizzy and my body temperature is rising.

then the palm that I used to feel when I was a kid. The palm of the hand trembled on my forehead, and this time it became a little rougher.

I felt that palm again. The palm of my mother's hand that checked my forehead again I found a clear worry on her face.

'' your forehead is hot nak ‘’

without asking for my approval first, my mother immediately invited me to the hospital.this time I have to refuse ya! I don't want to worry my mom anymore.

'' I am fine kok ma, just hot a little, later will also heal. ‘’ I said with weight

'' But baby, look at your condition, your body is also hot.’’

'' it's okay ma, really believe the same Ratih, Mama went to work. Can there be Bi Mirna at home.’’

‘’ yaudah if there is anything contact mama ya ‘’ he said while standing and leaving

Mama finally relented and had gone out of my sight. My head was still hurting, then I got out of bed and chose to sit in the chair.
