80. Unusual Gelagat

Then Nathan turned his gaze the other way in annoyance. But as if a voice was calling his name, Nathan turned his head. He stared at the glass window of Yulia's house that was getting away. Samar but surely Nathan saw Ira's head which was only a round blackish charred object sticking out from behind the curtains and staring at him.

And when his gaze met with Ira's eyes, Nathan saw sadness there. Especially a moment later the two eyes looked wet because they shed tears.

"Ira ... crying ?. Why ?" nathan asked in his heart.

Nathan's daydream breaks down when Ferdi scolds him.

"Lo see what the hell is Nath ?" asked Ferdi while looking at Yulia's house which was getting away.

"Look at nothing" Nathan said quickly.

"Emang is hard to believe Nath. I understand that Lo still feels Ira is there because I feel that way too. Maybe it's because Ira's life is over in that house" said Ferdi lirih.

Nathan turned to look at Ferdi who was sitting next to him. Ferdi closed his eyes as if sleeping. But Nathan knows that Ferdi just wants to forget what he saw at Yulia's house that night.

Not wanting to disturb Ferdi, Nathan leaned back and looked straight ahead. At that time the voice of Ira who called his name back came back down, but succeeded in making Nathan look back at the house of Yulia.

"Go to Ira. Your place is not here. Go away and don't come back here. Go back to the substance that has life because it's our best place to be" Nathan said in his heart.

After saying that phrase Nathan read Surah Al Fatihah which was sent specifically for the late Ira. For some reason after reading Al Fatihah, Ira's voice was no longer heard in his ear. Nathan breathed a sigh of relief but continued chanting until the car entered the cemetery.

Ira's funeral went well. Although not many residents who deliver because the funeral is done during working hours. Ira was buried five days later after his body was found.

Before leaving the cemetery, Ira's parents sat down for a moment next to Ira's grave. They stared at the gravestone bearing Ira's name with a broken feeling.

"I'm sorry, son. Sorry for hating you and cursing you. But I realize, you also do not want to bear the curse. Now go quietly. Insha Allah the same Mother will be diligent to visit you later," said Ira's mother in between sobs.

"Betul Nak's. My mom couldn't do anything. Only prayer can We offer in the hope that it will ease your sin. Go away, son, we love you. Thank you for coming and filling our lives with happiness. Thank you, my dear child," Ira's father said in a trembling voice as he rubbed a gravestone bearing Ira's name.

What Ira's adoptive parents did and said moved everyone. They knew how sincere the love of the husband and wife was to the late Ira.

After expressing their feelings, Ira's parents got up and got into the car. And soon the motorcade carrying the corpse back on the move left the cemetery.

Nathan, Ferdi and Mario do not get in the car because they are still in the grave of Ira. They were waiting for Iis who was praying at Ira's grave.

"Lo know him Nath?" ask Mario.

"Ga knows, only if Ira is close enough to him. You see, I saw Ira several times talking to the girl on the orange boarding page," said Nathan.

"Oh, so Diana's hostess. What's his name Nath ?" ask Ferdi.

"It's not wrong, Iis" said Nathan along with Iis who had just finished praying.

Iis frowned looking at the three young men before her. Judging by appearance and age, Iis seems to be more mature than Nathan, Ferdi and Mario.

"You guys are Ira ?. And you ... You must be Nathan Ira's girlfriend. Aren't they ?" greet Ira first.

"Former girlfriend is more precisely Ma'am," Nathan said with a wry smile.

"Oh that. Then why are you still here ?. Why didn't you join the group ?. The distance from the tomb to the highway is quite far. Aren't you guys worried about straying ?" ask Iis.

"It is precisely We who are worried about the same Ma'am because we are here alone. Oh yes, I know Ferdi. This is Mario and his ex-girlfriend Ira is Nathan" Ferdi said.

Iis also shook Ferdi's hand outstretched towards him. Then Nathan and Mario shook Iis's hand as a greeting.

After making small talk the three stepped together to leave the burial area. Nathan and Iis walk in front, while Ferdi and Mario follow behind.

"I don't believe the rumors that are circulating that say that Ira is the incarnation of my stealth that Mas," said Iis opened the conversation.

"Me and my friends don't trust me either. You see, we have known Ira as a kind and friendly person. There is no sign that he has black magic" Nathan said.

"Rubber. If it turns out Ira is meyang, maybe she is also the one who preyed on Diana and the baby. You want Diana to die of what ?" tanya Iis riled.

Then the story flowed from Iis's mouth about Ira.

"Ira was the first to say Diana was pregnant. At that time I did not believe. I do not like Diana because I think Diana is a manipulative girl who uses her beauty to attract men. But I'm sure Diana can take care of herself. That's why when Ira convinced me about Diana's pregnancy, I became sprained. I just don't want the boarding house where I live to be the hiding place of Diana's cheap, rich woman. Sorry, Mas, I call it cheap because Diana was pregnant without Husband," said Iis ketus.

"Yes Gapapa Ma'am. Then Iis not suspicious why Ira can know if Diana is pregnant. Diana kept her pregnancy a secret. No one knew Diana had given birth in the bathroom" Nathan said.

"Mmm .., I should be suspicious. You see, ever since Ira said that Diana was pregnant, Ira used to play at our hostel. Even Ira just came home if We already want to sleep," said Iis quickly.

"Oh yeah. What's Ira doing at the Ma'am's boarding house ?" ask Nathan.

"Ga exists. He just sat in the living room talking. I think it's natural. In addition to the only child, the boarding house owned by his mother is also a special male boarding house. Rich Ira lonely, so find a friend to chat at our boarding house whose contents are all girls," said Iis.

Iis suddenly flinched when she remembered something.

"Oh yes !. There was one incident that made me shocked half to death. And I should have responded because Ira was displaying an unusual gait !" Iis said suddenly.

Nathan, Ferdi and Mario stare at each other for a moment and look at Iis hoping to get a clue.

"What's the matter, Ma'am, what's Ira doing ?" nathan asked impatiently.

Iis also told him about the strange things he saw.

As usual, when the clock strikes at nine p.m., Ira leaves. But when Ira arrived on the porch of the house passed Diana who had just arrived. I don't know why Ira hugged Diana. Diana screamed as Ira's hands squeezed her stomach. Diana pushes Ira and runs into the house.

At that time Ira seemed to grin while licking her lips. Then Ira looked at the distant Diana with a fierce look. Of course it surprised Iis.

"You why Ra ?!" ask Iis loudly.

Iis's question made Ira who was staring at Diana shocked.

"Gapapa. Then I go home, yes" Ira said at the time.

"After that Ira went home. I still squirm Ira turned her head many times as if looking for Diana," said Iis riled.

Somehow the story Iis make the feathers of Nathan, Ferdi and Mario bristled.
