145. Body Without Head

But Fikri is not a child who will just obey his mother's request. When the figure of Mak Ejah was not seen again, Fikri also ran to the coffee shop to pick up the motorcycle owned by Nicko that he put there earlier.

Apparently all this time Fikri always used a motorbike to meet his mother. But this time he was forced to borrow Nicko's motorbike because his motorcycle was stolen. And he deliberately hid the motorbike in the coffee shop because he did not want his mother to be suspicious. During this time Fikri always arrived early until mak Ejah suspected Fikri to use a taxi to arrive at that place.

"Thank you, sir !" said Fikri while putting a red sheet of money in front of the shop owner.

"Together Mas !" sahut shop owners are enthusiastic because they get a large amount of money as a service to keep the motorbike entrusted earlier.

Then Fikri propelled his motor towards the loss of Mak Ejah. At first Fikri wanted to go to the slum but he paused because Bayan contacted him and asked him to wait.

Soon after, Bayan came. Fikri turned his head when he heard the roar of Bayan's car. He frowned because he saw Bayan coming with Nathan. Honestly at that time Fikri did not like it because he was worried that the dark secret of his mother was known by Nathan.

As if you can read Fikri's concerns, Bayan also explained his purpose to invite Nathan this time.

"Don't worry, son. Your sister also has experience dealing with the demon creature. Dad deliberately asked her so that she could accompany you later," Bayan said.

"Betul Bang. My boyfriend used to be um .. I mean my ex-boyfriend used to be my demon. I even witnessed the change in form from human to meyang and vice versa when his head returned to his body" Nathan said with a wry smile.

"Then anyway. Are you not afraid of Nath ?" ask Fikri curiously.

"You're afraid not to be asked again Bang. I was so scared that I was shaking all over. Good thing I wasn't wetting that time" Nathan said quickly.

"Chat it later. Now we have to move fast, kids. You guys follow me from behind !" sela Bayan reminded.

"Yes, Yes !" sahut Fikri and Nathan.

Nathan rushed to sit in a piggyback behind Fikri while Bayan sat driving alone. And a moment later Bayan drove his car quickly followed by Fikri.

Although he did not understand why the direction taken was different from the direction of the disappearance of Mak Ejah, but Fikri believed that the path Bayan took was the best. And it was proven. Bayan stopped his car somewhere. Fikri also stopped right next to Bayan's car.

"Here is Dad ?" ask Fikri.

"Yes. Turn off the engine now. Try not to make any sound when we lurk later," said Bayan, who is nicknamed Fikri.

Nathan got off first and followed his father who was walking somewhere while Fikri parked the bike and followed later.

"Liat that," Bayan said as he pointed upwards right behind the tree.

Fikri and Nathan seemed to hold their breath when they saw the figure of the head with the internal organs hanging underneath it hiding behind the leaves. A moment later the rustling sound of leaves was heard along with the darting of the disembodied head.

Fikri was surprised and moved to chase. But his steps came to a halt as Nathan blocked his arm.

"Don't chase Bang" Nathan said.

"Lepasin Nath, I want to see what he's doing !" fikri gusar Sahut.

"It's free that you chase him because you won't be able to do anything there later. That part of the head moves faster than you Bang," Nathan said.

"Keep we're here just waiting for the demon to come back again ?!" ask Fikri.

"We don't follow the demon, but we're going to stop him there. Come on, come on !" bayan said as he stepped quickly towards somewhere.

Bayan looked to the right and left as if looking for something, as well as Nathan. Their attitude made Fikri confused.

"What are you guys looking for ?" ask Fikri.

Instead of answering, Bayan and Nathan compactly stared upwards while exclaiming.

"Above the !" bayan and Nathan said simultaneously while pointing up at the tree.

"What ?" ask Fikri not understand.

"Body of your mother" Nathan said quickly to make Fikri surprised.

"Now you go up and lower your mother's body down Fik. Hurry up !" bayan's orders.

"I'm Dad ?" ask Fikri in disbelief.

"Ck, help your brother Nath !" bayan said impatiently.

"Yes Well. Come on Bang !" take Nathan with you while pulling Fikri's hand.

Fikri was forced to obey Bayan's orders. He went up to the tree first and Nathan followed later. While Bayan seems to reach for dry branches scattered around it and break it into several small pieces.

On top of the tree Nathan seemed to grumble because his movement was blocked by Fikri. Apparently upon arriving at the largest branch, Fikri was surprised and stopped climbing. So surprised Fikri almost fell down. Luckily Nathan was quick to hold Fikri's body and then restore the position of his two hands to hold back on the tree trunk.

"Still Nath," said Fikri lirih, who was taken by Nathan.

At that moment in front of Fikri and Nathan seemed a headless body figure sitting leaning on a tree branch. Fikri gaped in disbelief when he recognized the dress worn by a headless body figure was exactly the same as the one worn by Mak Ejah earlier.

Somehow the feelings of sadness, fear, anger and disappointment were mixed with Fikri. Unknowingly Fikri was crying in front of the headless body.

With trembling hands Fikri tried to touch the figure before him. He shook his head while crying when he recognized the mark on the palm of Mak Ejah's hand.

"Quick a little Kids !" bayan said from under the tree.

Nathan nodded and looked at Fikri.

"Come on Bang, don't cry. Cepetan help me purify this body !" said Nathan.

Fikri nodded as well. While crying he helps Nathan lower Mak Ejah's body from the top of the tree. Because of nervousness, Fikri's hand grip on Mak Ejah's body was released. Nathan who was beside Fikri was forced to release his grip also because he was not strong to bear the weight of Mak Ejah's body alone. As a result, the body of Mak Ejah slid to the ground right in front of Bayan.

Bayan seemed to shake his head at the carelessness of Nathan and Fikri.

"Sorry Dad, abis heavy. Brother took off his handle earlier !" nathan said while grinning.

Bayan took a long breath. Not wanting to waste time, Bayan immediately sprinkled a broken twig and toothpick that he carried on the neck of Mak Ejah. Fikri who just came down from the tree was surprised to see Bayan action. As he wanted to ask, Nathan crossed his index finger in front of his lips as a gesture to keep Fikri quiet.

Fikri nodded then continued the dhikr in his heart that he had read since.
