Office Elevator #1



Sarah POVS.


Tok to tok.


"Excuse me sir." I opened the door to Mr. Rafli's office and asked for permission to be allowed to enter by him.


"Oh Sarah, let's go in."


I immediately entered his study room that looks very neat with the placement of items that are not too much so as to make a broad impression for a room that is not too large.


"Please sit down." Mr. Rafli's orders while pointing at the chair in front of him.


I sat in the chair appointed by him. With a slightly anxious feeling, I guessed what I was called to Mr. Rafli's room. I'm afraid that this call is due to Andre's attitude that made Mr. Rafli not like the two of us.


"Mmm, if you may know what you called me here?" I tried to melt the atmosphere that suddenly felt quiet.


Mr. Rafli then closed the book that he did not seem to read because it was just in the back and forth between the pages, then he looked up his head and looked at me.


"Aren't you feeling well?"


"Huh? No sir, why?"


"Really? If you still do not feel well you postpone your departure, then the business of work there let in the same handle Joseph." Mr. Rafli said he gave me a choice.


"Ga, sir, thank you. I'm okay with it."


"Hmm, good then. You can get ready now."


"Okay sir, thank you."


I stood up from the chair and immediately came out of the room and walked towards my own desk.


"Why Sar? How's he called Rafli?" Ask Ana the gossipmonger in my division.


"There is nothing, only preparation to be brought to the task." Answer me who tried to give the safest answer possible so as not to leave gossip in the office environment.

"So what do we do now, Gas?" Hanif said while propping up his chin with his hands.


"Fixed with the original plan, Friday night tomorrow we begin the ritual." Answer Bagas while occasionally smoking his cigarette.


"But if for example Sarah is not okay?" Ask Hanif back.


"If you can come, because here is the role he made to help smooth the ritual process. As I said earlier, the most sought after among the grandchildren of your grandfather yes Sarah."


"Gue really-not really think that it actually happened like the one you told me earlier."


"Yes that way, after last night I tried to invite the creature to communicate, I saw some of the events that used to be the root of your family's problems today."


"But I did not expect and did not finish thinking, how could my grandmother, hftt." Hanif said while exhaling his breath and did not continue what he wanted to say.


"Everything is not certain Nif, we should not believe too much in what the creature said. We have to believe based on the evidence and the end result."


"Okay, I get it. But now what I want to ask you, if that's why we need another ritual on Friday night tomorrow? After all, you've macem-macem the same creature and have been told some pictures of the events of antiquity."


"Let's be sure. Who knows if there is Sarah, the creature so want to reveal the mystery of what really happened all this time."


"How mean? Sarah was made into that tumbal?"


"Well, I'll never forget Sarah for communication with the creature, what you want to ask Sarah to say."


"Hmm, okay. I'll call Sarah for a Friday night mastiin tomorrow she's home again or not."


"Yes." Yeah."


Tuuttt.tuuttt.


There was a telephone call from Hanif to Sarah's number.


"Hallo. Assalamualaikum mas."


********


Ddrrr.tt..ddrr.ttt..


The sound of phone vibrations coming in from my phone. I grabbed my phone and saw who called me at this office hour.


Ah, it turns out Mas Hanif. I immediately shifted the green button on the phone screen to pick up the phone call from my cousin's brother.


"Hallo. Assalamualaikum mas." My greeting is


"..………."


"Not yet, this is ready, why mas?"


"......…"


"Ehm, if the schedule should be three to 4 days there mas, but I will try to make a permit to go home first with my friend. Mmm, if for example Sarah does not come, can't ya mas?"


"........"


"Well then, Sarah had to take care of it Thursday afternoon to get home."


"………"


"Mosell."


I hung up and put my phone back on the desk. After checking back all the files that I was going to take to work, I went to Joseph at his desk and told him that soon we both had to go to Gambir Station.


"Bentar nek, eyke want to check again the default eyke so no one is left behind. No, powder okay, lipgloss okay, mascara okay. Hmmm, okay I've been laughing at all uhhh sure slouch." Not knowing the shame Joseph took out a small bag that turned out to be some of his makeup equipment.


"Huh? You brought make up?" Ask wonder.


"Ihhhh, you can be a girl like yayak instead of a girl!"


"Yes I'm a girl, original again so it's natural to bring make up so, you are."


"What are you?" Asked Joseph who suddenly turned into a little sewot.


"Hihihi, pissss's."


"Huh already the road now ah, eyke phone office driver first to ready the car."


Joseph went to the room phone to call the office driver and told him to take Joseph and me to the station.


After everything was sorted out, the two of us immediately went down to the ground floor of the office. While waiting for the elevator to stop on the floor of our room, Joseph and I engaged in some small talk that made us both laugh while keeping our mouths shut so as not to disturb the concentration of the other employees.


Tall-in..


The elevator doors opened and no one was there. Joseph and I got into the elevator and pushed the button to the ground floor.


"Well, how come it's kind of goosebumps huh darl?" Joseph asked suddenly startled me who was daydreaming looking at the reflection of my face in the mirror in the elevator.


"Cleaning?" Asking back.


"Yes, look at the feathers of my hand suddenly stood up all." Joseph said shuddering in horror as he showed his hand to me.


"Oh yes, how can you?"


"Ga know this is strange, the atmosphere is also suddenly so unpleasant in here, why does this elevator tumben feel horror huh?"


I did not reply to Joseph. I felt like there was someone else in the elevator besides me and Joseph. But how can it be? While I was entering, I saw no one in the elevator. When the elevator door opened, it was empty.


The tip of my eye caught a figure in the corner of the elevator. With a slight tremble, I ventured to raise my head and looked towards the mirror to find out who was behind me at the moment.


Degggg..


Apparently him! The woman who for some time recently disturbed my calm with all sorts of terror. He was looking at me with his really creepy smile and his face which was also very horrible.


Slowly she advanced towards me and was now right behind my body.


My hair was standing, my whole body was shaking violently and my forehead was sweating coldly, I did not listen to all the chatter that came from Joseph's mouth.


O Allah help your servant, O Allah.
