Love At SMK

Night Devotion

Prisha awakens from her stupor and finds Andrian sitting next to her. Confused, he asked

"where am I sir?"

His eyes blinked adjusting the light rays that illuminated the room.

"You're in the teacher's room now. I am not strong if I have to lie you get to the UKS. Too far. How much do you weigh? So heavy. If you have a hobby of fainting, you better diet."

Andrian spoke at length, impressed with anger. But Prisha likes that. He considered all Andrian babbling to be a form of attention to Prisha.

"Sorry sir. I was terrified because there was a ghost in front of the school toilet." Prisha said reasoned.

"ghosts? Where can a ghost bopong you get here?" Answer Andrian ketus.

"I mean father?" Prisha asked confusedly.

"You mean that ghost I was. The lights in front of the female toilet are dim. I took the initiative to replace it. But I just took off the bulb instead you've been screaming. Thankfully I was smart. If it had not collapsed on the bathroom floor earlier you" replied Andrian explained.

"Sorry sir.. I'm sorry. I don't mean to equate the father with a ghost. It's just that I'm shocked. When I came out the light suddenly died and there was a big black figure." Prisha explains the chronology.

"Heeem.. Next time if you do not dare to go to the bathroom itself, ask for a meeting to nganterin. Don't be so brave but end up fainting"

"sorry sir.. Sorry to bother you"

"When did I become your father?"

Andrian's words were floating in the air. Then he cleared his throat to dispel the awkward atmosphere

"The nightly contemplation is about to begin. There's your meeting in the auditorium."

Andrian's orders were more like expulsions.

"Good sir.. Then I'm sorry. Thank you for nolongin me earlier" answered Prisha and lowered her foot stepping out of the room.

"Why did you follow me? I dare" said Prisha, who found Andrian walking behind her.

"Who follows you too. Piquancy. I'm going to the auditorium. Watch the night procession. Don't let anyone pass out or be possessed by demons"

Andrian stepped ahead of Prisha towards the auditorium room which was already full of participants. Prisha walked behind him. He could only stare at Andrian's back walking in front of him with a smile.

The auditorium room was already full of participants sitting in a circle. Some of them are still sleepy. But still force yourself to step into the room and sit in a circle with other participants.

Prisha searches for Hani's whereabouts as soon as she reaches the auditorium. He immediately sat next to his groupmate.

"Huh.." Sapa Prisha

"Where is Sha from? Kok new dateng. I didn't find it just now. Kirain digondol genderuwo" Ledek Hani

"Yes. Genderuwo gendered into the teacher's room" answered Prisha with a smile of his own.

"Well.. Mean elo?" Tanya Hani was curious. But the curiosity has not been answered the lights of the room has been turned off replaced with a dim candle light. That's a sign that the procession of night reflection will be carried out soon.

"Is anyone still sleepy?"

"If you who are young and only in charge of learning just wake up at this hour still reluctant to wake up and sleepy, what about your mother? Don't you know, if in the past when you were little your mother always woke up in hours like this? Do you never imagine how tired his body takes care of the needs of the house while taking care of you as a child. Midnight crying, fussing over wet diapers. Crying hungry wants to suckle. Their bodies that are tired of working and getting older stay awake. Defeat drowsiness and fatigue. Change your wet diapers. Breastfeed you hungry. Cover your body so as not to get cold. Even they are willing to wake up to sleep well and make sure no mosquitoes bite you. What is your reply after the big one? You still like to be rebellious when you're ruled. You guys still like to yell at them. You guys still like to troublemaker up to drag them into trouble."

None of the students dared to raise their heads. They all looked down to listen to his senior's words. Some of them even began to shed tears.

"O my beloved brothers.. Did you ever wake up to make sure your mother's body was covered up or not? Do you ever wake up at night caring for the sick? Have you ever fed them before thinking about your stomach? You feel too selfish to ever do that. Though your mother. Your parents, they sacrificed so much for you. Raised you until you grew up as teenagers. If it's in the dead how much money have they given you? Then are you able to pay for all that? Suppose you could exchange it for money, however much it may be, it would not be enough to redeem the affection of the parents. But what they hope for is not material. What they expected was not money or abundant treasure. All they expected was to see you become a successful and happy human being."

The committee spoke at length to make MPLS participants who did evening devotions cry as they pleased. The silent night plus the touching words made them unable to stem the tears.

The evening devotional event was over when the candle lit in the center of the circle of participants was a little. Another committee turned on the lights of the auditorium. Then continue the evening activities by taking participants for a walk with their eyes closed by their respective hasduk. Each group will be guided by 1 committee that will guide their path.

"Street carefully deck. Don't let your feet stoop around the headstone"

said the committee lied but successfully made the participants frightened. Especially Prisha who incidentally is a coward. They were just invited to surround the school parking lot.

...****************...

"Ha.. Pinjem Prisha bentar yes. I want to open the prize of the winner of the best presentation. Yesterday's my presentation was with Prisha."

Elina said to Hani who was always on Prisha's side. For a moment Hani and Prisha looked at each other suspiciously but the next second Hani nodded her nod.

"If so I go to the classroom that made us sleep Sha"

Hani leaves but still does not calm down to see the spirit of Elina who usually always does evil to Prisha. And sure enough, instead of giving gifts but Elina took Prisha to the auditorium room which was now pitch-black.

"Dark El. I turned on the lights first. Let's open the prize easily." Said Prisha who still had not caught the strange gurgle of his nemesis.

"No need" replied Elina.

He dragged Prisha's body to the center of the room they had used for evening devotions. It turned out there was already Mega and Fita waiting with matches and candles in his hand.

"Where's loe's hand" snapped Elina.

Like a buffalo plugged in her nose, Prisha bowed and stretched out her hands. Unexpectedly Elina dripped a candle that had previously been lit Mega into the hands of Prisha who had now been held tightly by Fita.

"Oh El.. Be ill.. Hot.." - Prisha.

"Please stop. Am I wrong with you guys?" Prisha asked on the sidelines to endure the pain.

"Do you know what your mistake is? Elo's mistake is that you have dared to look in front of us all. Take the stage sing everything. Loe thinks with so many people who adore elo continue to want that victory? Not darn. Sooner or later they will all know that elo is just a poor girl who just became a real friend." Snapped Elina who added one more lit candle to Prisha's next hand.

"Oh El. Be ill. Please stop. I'm sorry about that. I accidentally came forward because I was afraid of ghosts" Prisha replied honestly but instead made them laugh mockingly.

"You think we believe that shit? Not going to" said Elina cynically.

The wax was eroded away making Prisha unable to hold back her tears. He was still moaning to ask Fita to release his hand which was made a stack of burning candles. But how hard he asks, Elina and the gang without pity still continue to torture Prisha. They laughed happily to see Prisha in pain until a voice sounded from the middle auditorium door

"Hey.. What are you doing there?"
