66. Haunted

Nathan had just entered his room after washing his face in the bathroom. As he lay down, Nathan searched his cell phone. He patted his forehead when sure if his phone was left on the table on the porch of the house.

In a fit of annoyance Nathan rushes out of the room to retrieve his phone. In front of the room he meets Mario.

"Why Lo Nath, want a pup. Can't do it !. I'm first, I've been kebelet. If you want to use the back bathroom !" said Mario while holding his stomach.

"Ish what the hell Lo. Who wants a pup, I want to grab the phone I missed on the porch !" nathan said annoyed.

"Oh kirain wants a pup. Be careful, Nath, ntar Lo found his ghost Diana you know !" said Mario while slamming the bathroom door.

Mario's words surprised Nathan. He prepared to reply to Mario's words but stopped knowing Mario had entered the bathroom.

Before exiting the house Nathan turns on the lights to find the door lock in the lock storage. After getting the key, Nathan opened the door. He smiled when he saw his phone lying on the porch table.

When reaching out his hand to grab his phone, Nathan accidentally turned to the road in front of the boarding house. Nathan frowned because he saw something there. He saw the figure of a woman in shabby clothes stepping while bowing her head. Clothes that were tangled and torn in parts, hair messy and while crying reminded Nathan of the figure of Diana when he first met Ferdi.

Nathan tried to throw away his memory and then turned his gaze for a moment to take his phone. After that he turned his head back towards the road in front of the house, but the figure of the woman he saw earlier was already invisible.

"Like Diana, but not. Diana is dead" Nathan murmured as he put his phone in his pants pocket.

Before entering the house, Nathan checks the gate. And at that time Nathan was surprised because it turns out the figure of the woman he saw was behind the fence. The woman stood her back to the door while bowing her head.

"Astaghfirullah aladziim. What's there, Ma'am ?. Wait for who ?!" nathan asked loudly.

Silence there is no sound. The woman remained silent and that upset Nathan. Feeling that he had no business with the woman, Nathan turned his body to prepare to enter the house.

"Toloonnnggg ..," said the woman shriveled but could still be heard by Nathan.

Nathan stopped walking and went back to the gate. He wanted to ask what kind of request for help the woman needed. But Nathan froze in place when he found no one there. And along with that Nathan felt the air around him became cooler than before to make his hair bristling.

"Yes Allah. Time yes far from Jakarta nemuin ginian as well," complained Nathan while rubbing his face.

After a long sigh Nathan rushed into the house. Not scared but Nathan just looks annoyed. He felt he did not know Diana so why should he be 'haunted' by Diana.

"A lot of people here, why should I too. Those who have a crush on you are not I !" nathan muttered while closing the door.

After putting his phone near the pillow, Nathan laid his body on the bed. Shortly thereafter a subtle snoring sounded a sign Nathan had gone into dreamland.

In the morning the atmosphere in the boarding house looks tense. It was because Mbok Ti was busy telling the gossip he heard. Nathan and his friends who were enjoying breakfast were forced to receive additional breakfast from the housekeeper.

"Who said Diana's ghost appeared last night ?" ferdi asked while chewing the food in his mouth.

"Yes said neighbor dong Mas," said Mbok Ti quickly.

"Oh Kirain Mbok Ti himself. Abis Mbok Ti said the story was very excited," said Ferdi while grinning.

Mbok Ti was silent for a moment to make Nathan and his friends confused and looked at him.

"I ... I have met the ghost of Diana before. If the other one was haunted last night, I was even from the second night Sister Diana died," said mbok Ti lirih but managed to surprise everyone.

"How rich is Mbok ?"

"Keep Diana saying what's Mbok ?"

"Diana said, who has impregnated him Mbok ?"

"Eh, that's not it. Diana said who killed him ?"

The successive questions posed by Nathan's fellow hostesses shocked Mbok Ti and then hit them one by one with the rice pitchers he held. Nathan and Ferdi who did not ask were also exposed to the sap because they had to receive the same blow from Mbok Ti.

The screams of pain sounded earthy in the dining room. Everyone held their heads while staring at Mbok Ti with an unacceptable look.

"Why, angry?, don't you accept ?!" asked Mbok Ti loudly while glaring.

Mbok Ti's question was answered by Nathan and his friends. Then they continued their breakfast without daring to ask again. They chose silence while listening to Mbok Ti's story about his experience meeting the ghost of Diana.

Mbok Ti said he first met Diana's ghost when he came home from the market. Mbok Ti is used to shopping for kitchen needs at night. In addition to fresh vegetables, the price is more sloping.

"So that time I went home riding his motorcycle ojeg the Kusno. Do not know why the motor suddenly broke down in front of the boarding an orange color. I will forget that there was a natural event, so I took a walk and left Kusno there. I mean Kusno guide aja motorbike until home, the distance of the house is the same Oren boarding house is also not far. But Kusno was even angry and asked me to nemenin him. Because of pee kebelet, I follow angry and immediately leave him that way," said Mbok Ti while staring at all the boarding children one by one.

Nathan and his friends stare at Mbok Ti hoping the woman continues her story.

"Pas finished peeing I turned back again dong. There I squirm Kusno again standing while holding his motorbike with the face of the shoot. When I asked why I continued the road, eh Kusno diem while giving the same code to his eyes towards my back. Because of suspicion, I looked back and was shocked half to death when mengeliat Mpa Diana again walk while holding her stomach. He looks like he is in a lot of pain. Moreover, there was blood flowing from under his stomach. Well do not know why at that time I want if Miss Diana already died. Don't use a lot of talk I immediately run away Mas. I ran as fast as I could because I was scared and left Kusno alone on the street" Mbok Ti said, wiping the sweat on his forehead.

"Keep ?" nathan asked curiously.

"Keus ya Kusno met by residents and escorted to the house" said Mbok Ti quickly.

Nathan and his friends looked at each other after hearing Mbok Ti's story. They are honestly afraid. Even though men, but for the affairs of ghosts they are not as brave as Nathan. Suddenly they smiled meaningfully and that made Nathan suspicious.

"What's such a perverted smile ?!" nathan asked fiercely.

"Among us, Lo is the bravest Nath. So you don't want Lo to have to stand by on the porch to wait for us to go home until all the hostess residents go home" said Mario.

"Ga wants me. I mean, what the fuck !" push Nathan away while he gets up from his seat.

"Come on Nath. Please ...," said Mario pleading.

"You want Lo, I don't mind. But nothing is free in this world, especially I also have to do the task also on the terrace. You know there are a lot of mosquitoes. So you guys have to pay !" nathan said firmly.

"Ok no problem !. We're gonna pay you Lo's boarding money for a month !" mario said after discussing with other friends.

Nathan seemed to think for a moment then nodded then extended his hand.

"Ok deal !" nathan was greeted by the laughter of his friends.
