Tied to Hell
The sunlight had not yet returned from his stopover. The sky is still dark. The atmosphere of the night that usually feels peaceful for a teenage girl, is no longer the case. His nightmare, as if it had obliterated all his courage to fight his evil.
In a simple house, a girl was washing her face. With a pale face and sweat pouring out, he looked terrified. His face also described anxiety. With a tremble, his hand closed the tap.
"Throughout the years after Dad's departure, that creepy dream came back and haunted me again. Actually why, anyway?" The girl named Renjana Savita, ruffled her hair while growling with frustration.
"Don't tell me that this is a sign that I am really bound to hell" said Renjana, shivering in horror. In distress, he gulped his own saliva.
Renjana. In the darkness of a room lit only by a few candles, the girl stepped towards the dining table that was parallel and only two to three meters from the entrance of her residence. Then, he pulled out a chair and sat himself on it.
Renjana took an empty glass and filled it with water. Slowly, he sipped his drink. However, because his body was still tingling, the cup he was holding actually fell to produce a sound that echoed due to the silence that previously dominated.
'PRANG!'
Jolts, then grimaces. He looked down, wanted to pick up the shards of his favorite glass that is a relic from his aunt—adik mother— before disappearing, then found dead with very sad conditions.
"Ana's? What are these nights doing, son?"
"Ah, Mother! Ana thirsty, nih—so want to drink. But the glass fell, it kept breaking. In fact, it was the favorite glass of Ana— Aunt Dirandra's legacy," complained Renjana. The girl let out a long breath, regretting her boredom.
On the other hand, the mother who had previously stood in front of the door of her room also turned to the corner of the room, wanting to turn on the lights that were turned off. But the princess, stopped.
"No need, Mother ...! Ana 'wants to be done, really, this ...," explained Renjana. "Mending, Mommy just went back to sleep," he continued.
"But remember, do not delay his sleep so that at school later do not 'drowsy and disturb the lesson," he said, advising the princess.
The shoulder-haired girl only smiled, then slipped her mane behind her ear. Of course, he also understood the meaning of his mother. As a student who relies on scholarships, he must always maintain his attitude and achievements. That's why, all this time, he was always careful not to make trouble with other students.
"Aah!" Renjana grimacing slowly. A fragment of the shard had scratched his finger until it was injured. Although actually not so painful, but spontaneously, his body system gave such reflexes. 'Basic sloppy!' he said, to himself.
"From now on, I feel again watched," he whispered, with a bristling fur.
With concern, Renjana also spread her gaze around. However, he could not find anything that could support his over thinking. In the end, the woman decided to put her feelings aside.
After successfully cleaning the glass shards more carefully, Renjana immediately went to his room, after rinsing his wounds with running water.
'Come, Renjana .., sleep! Don't 'think, don't think! Let's clear your mind—empt your mind!'
Renjana lying face down. Remembering his terrible sleeping flowers, he also experienced a strange delusion. In his shadow, if he was facing upwards, then, all of a sudden there was a demon that would appear and startle him.
Renjana sank into silence with the contents of her head scattered. Unknowingly, his actions managed to delight a creature in the darkness that was highlighting him with a sharp look.
"It is a pleasure to make this child of Adam suffer" said the monstrous creature. His voice sounded terrible— was so hoarse and really unpleasant to hear.
"It's time soon" he said, grinning. The figure that turned out to be the demon, since night began to cross, had actually been observing the girl who would become the victim. In the dark, he has been lurking.
"No man can break his bonds of hell and the snares of the devil. HA HA HA!" The demon was blown away, then disappeared and left Renjana in deep fear.
...««« SEVERAL HOURS LATER »»»...
"STAY UP! MOMMY, ANA PAMIT!" Renjana exclaimed as she took her mother's hand to shake hands. His left hand held a box of provisions specially prepared by the mother for her daughter who woke up late so that she could not have time for breakfast.
Actually, since five o'clock in the morning, Dhivya has been trying to wake Renjana. After believing that his only child had woken up, he went to the market to shop. Unfortunately, he did not expect that his daughter would fall back asleep afterwards.
So sleepy, Renjana accidentally let herself lose consciousness again. His mother had just returned home at six more than a quarter in Western Indonesia time. After being woken up for the second time, Renjana was shocked and immediately got ready. So, this is how it ends now.
"Don't 'call, Ana ...!" Not to forget, before the child really moved, Dhivya also gave his advice. Renjana also tried to remember that. Although in the end, still, when riding his motorcycle, the teenager even drove quickly, in line with his heart and adrenaline race.
Luckily, despite the traffic jam, Renjana made it to her school safely and on time. Timely referred to here, that is, after parking his second wheeled vehicle in a special daycare, he entered the school area, coinciding with the ringing of the bell began learning and teaching activities.
Not until three seconds after the entry of Renjana, the gate was closed. The girl was relieved. In a hurry, he walked towards the indoor field. There was an apple activity that morning. Late students will usually be told to stand in front as a form of punishment for indiscipline. As an exemplary disciple, of course, it would be a very shameful thing for a Savita Prisoner.
Today, Renjana was lucky again, because he got to the field quite quickly, which there was already formed about 20 rows to the back. However, before he managed to join randomly— because he did not have friends as his accomplice—someone even pulled him.
Suddenly, Renjana frowned. He did know the figure of the tall young man, but obviously, to just say hello, they never did. Surprisingly, the teenage boy, now actually pulled him to a place that is not crowded, as if he wanted to talk about an important thing that should not be heard by others.
"Lo .. 'it's tied to hell."
That sudden statement, of course surprised Renjana. Whatdoes thatmean? Is it .. bound to hell?
