JOBBING

[12] Purpose

After all the anxiety I went through, I decided to change my life goals. Find out what really happened to me. Who is Avlein, who am I? Have I not known the real me all along? That's why I'm here now ....

Connecticut – Hartford.

We finally arrived at this place. Where when I opened the old book, the book no longer showed a writing, but a picture shaped like a house and wearing the name plaque–Entic. And I'm sure that the house is a place to sell things.

But I also felt something strange about this city. It's all since we got to this place. Because everything that looks here is very different from the atmosphere when I last visited it.

At that time many people were walking on the sidewalk busy doing their own activities. But now there is not one until the sellers on the side of the road.

Shops should also be glowing showing the products they sell, when the bright ceiling changes with twilight as it is today. But not even street lamps are entirely lit to illuminate our direction.

Also usually many cars passing by, not just parked on the side of the road silent. And it should even be able to take us directly to where we are headed.

But this time there was nothing we could drive. It was only fitting that the person heading towards this city could be counted with a finger.

This city looks like an uninhabited city again.

"So Joba, what is this?" mulaiku broke the silence in our steps.

"Oh, they've been shutting themselves up in buildings lately."

"Is anyone bothering them?" sahut Vlivy who was walking next to me tried to equalize our footsteps.

"Yes ... Like that's. They were plagued by invisible creatures and there were even some humans who were declared to have disappeared."

"So what now are we gonna be okay?" vlivy asked again it seemed like he was starting to worry about something.

"Quiet ... All is safe while I'm around!" reply Joba with his tone of voice that sounded like he was proud of something.

"And it would be great if you could help us get there faster!"

Suddenly the car door not far in front of us opened. And I thought someone would get out of the car. But when we approached the car, there was no one in it. I'm sure this is all Joba did.

"Wait for what else? Don't you want to get there fast?" obviously Joba when we were just glued to look at the car owned by someone else.

"Yes right, this is a criminal act but I make sure no one will sue later."

We finally got into the car. It's true we don't have the key, but the car is still running on its own. Who else if not for Joba and I believe there are many more abilities that have not been demonstrated.

We immediately headed to the place, making this car as our free vehicle. At least we did not walk to a location that is approximately five kilo meters in front of there.

When we arrived at the place, just like before, there was no one wandering around the city. But now it is not late at night.

Yes, although it had been seen some people who ran to the place he was headed, but I felt they were avoiding something. Because of his movements that look around vigilantly.

This place we were heading to looked like a house but was only small in size and towering upwards. It is flanked by an even taller building on its right and left sides.

It also looks like other buildings, there is not the slightest light that shows the contents of the building, whose windows themselves are covered by something. It makes the place as if it is inhabited by no one.

We approached the dark brown bell door and a little carved foliage on the edges. Soon we knocked on the door a few times, but did not get a welcome from within.

It made me push the door slowly and I was lucky to be unlocked.

When entering the house it turns out this place is a cafe. It is not an uninhabited house as I originally thought. Some people are also enjoying their drinks in various corners.

We were also greeted warmly when we opened the door. This is all so weird. Everyone in this room looked perfectly normal. There was not the slightest fear, like the reaction of the person walking outside.

"Yes ... That's what Avlein is like. The creature will not be able to interfere inside the building. And yes he was interested in the light." explained Joba when we had landed our bodies on one of the cafe tables.

Not to forget we also ordered something to fill our stomachs for a while. And now it is clear why all buildings do not have lighting at night. At least avoid the 'beings', when they want to get out of the building.

I opened the old book that I had been holding from the beginning. Go to the last page where the book only shows a blank sheet.

Again and again, not a writing to continue the story formed there. Now the book again shows a picture—looks like a door.

"Oh, that picture! I've seen it!" chirp the waiter who just came with two glasses on the tray that is now in his hand.

Hearing that I immediately pulled one of the chairs next to me, signalling him to sit there. He who understands sees that soon complies with my call.

Clearly show his hand that shows the size of the item if it is 15 centimeters long.

"He never sold that stuff. He just put it on display in the closet behind his cashier." he said again now stopped staring at me.

"And I was curious about you two from the beginning. You guys seem to come here riding something. And also it seems you don't know what's going on in this town?"

"Yes, what you're saying is all true." I'm quick to tell him not to suspect us.

Then he went to hold his chin with his right hand, while the left hand supported the hand. His face frowned as if he was thinking very hard.

Then convey the results of his thoughts, "I'm just confused you guys entered here so casually. whereas the others must be with irregular breaths ...."

He looked with a probing gaze towards us in turn.

"You're using the car to this place and it makes me sure you're from someplace far enough away. My question is, why are you all okay?!"

"Maybe it's because we don't know what's going on" said Vlivy making the waiter's gaze stop at him.

"Usually those who roam using vehicles are also in danger. They shouted for help as the vehicle floated by itself. We can't help anything, 'cause we didn't see anything and what helps is definitely gonna get rubbed off."

"So, what exactly is going on?"

The waiter slightly confirmed his sitting position and began to tell the state of the city.

"We don't know what the hell is bothering us. This has all happened for almost two years. Some can see and he says, the creature is only small and likes to disturb others, but he will not be able to enter the room.

We never roamed outside the house again. At first all this was just an ordinary nuisance, but the more here it all got worse. Because we could not go back home due to being taken somewhere by the creature.

We don't know how to deal with all this and as you can see, it's better to do all this. And because we've been dealing with this for a long time, we're getting used to what's going on."

Finally he stopped explaining and looked back at me, making me raise both eyebrows, because his expression was like expecting something.

"So from that I was very suspicious of you, why did you survive? Is there an antidote? You can't drive without light, can you!"

Okay, now he's getting suspicious. I don't know why I'm silent because I don't know what to comment. There's no way I'm commenting, 'cause I have this!" show Joba to him and tell him that this is my talisman. He'll think I'm crazy.

"And I'm sure you won't tell me. Therefore you will need this ..." he continued suddenly his hand moved away into his pants pocket.

Then put two small bottles of dark green water. Vlivy and I exchanged a glance. I'm sure he's as confused as I am.

"And Job ... Give my regards to that old fucking grandpa!" he continued to make us simultaneously stare towards him.

"Haha ... Hey come on, admit it's your stubborn grandfather. Therefore we also will not serepot this move place."

"Cih ... You better get out of here!"

We left the cafe, not forgetting to bring the small bottle that the waiter gave us. As he said, we will need the drink because it is a potion to pass through the door we saw on the old book.

Where along the way, Joba told me who exactly the waiter was.

Evelion. The man with his face that looked like a Korean, also had pale skin like Joba. As well as her blonde hair that Slicked Back intersected, she looked like an ordinary human and the same height as me.

He was the owner of the cafe. But because of the vest he wore, he was always counted as a servant there.

Unlike Joba, he was just a being capable of making some potions. But that doesn't mean he can make potions that can eradicate these creatures. Because of course he tried to make it, but never paid off.

They have known each other for 100 years. Where Evel comes to Joba and Avlein begs to make him a student.

At first he was rejected because of course the two of them would not have time for such things, but because of his firmness and craftsmanship, Evel was able to increase his strength in making some potions. One of them is a herb that has been given to us, which is to shrink the body.

And why didn't he ask me any more, because he saw the book and Joba told him that he would visit with a different Avlein.

Finally we arrived at Beta park with a home–which from a distance looks like a cottage, in the middle of the park. Because some light shone on the place.

Makes me question one thing, why is he showing the light of his house ....
