Love From Space

The Memory of Brother Eci

"Your name is Yon, right? What are you guys doing these nights?!" Hardik Kak Eci who has misunderstood the purpose of Yon's arrival when the day is still dark as it is today.

Nura was clearly in a panic. But it is different with Yon. The young man still looked calm, although now he was under the intimidating gaze of Kak Eci.

A moment later, Yon said.

"Hello, Eci. Long time no see.Sorry because yesterday I did not introduce myself to you. But I guess you remember me. I mean, when you were a kid, the discs floated... Nun stone.. Remember?" Yon reminded Eci of something.

Brother Eci looked confused by Yon's words just now. That's why he just stared at the young man in silence.

Until then, suddenly Sis Eci remembered with an old memory. The memories he painstakingly buried in his memory pile.

Old memories when he was ten years old..

Flashback ten years ago...

Eci, the second daughter of the mother at that time was ten years old over a few months. The girl woke up in the early hours to pay big wishes (Big Water Waste).

Eci hurriedly went to the front of the house while carrying a small bucket. Eci then filled the bucket with river water and finally entered into the General WC located above the river whose water flow is not too heavy.

the General WC is only a small cuboid-shaped room measuring 1.5 x 1 meter. And on each side is covered by either tarp or sack. In the room there was a dipper that was tied so that it did not fall into the river below. Meanwhile, there is a wooden trunk that runs across the room, to be a place to hang out for someone who wants to defecate.

If someone wants to BAB, then he only needs to go into the room, BAB, until his tin ja nyemplung to the river below. Once done, he just needs to clean himself up with the water he took with his bucket.

What a way to defecate that is still fairly traditional.

After completing his wish, Eci returned home again. But when he was fetching drinking water in the kitchen, he saw the back door of the house slightly open.

The boy approached to check on her. And, sure enough. The door was open at the time.

"Diih..who the hell forgot the door lock? Mum is probably not the least Nura or Tio! Watch out I'll report to Mom! Hehehe.." kekeh Eci while grinning ignorant.

Eci also intends to lock the door back. But his eyes were attracted to an object lying on the ground near the hall that was on the back porch of the house.

The girl closed the door and approached where a small flip-flop was lying on the ground.

"It's Nura's sandals. Get caught, Ra! Let me report to your mother! Hehe!" Kekeh Eci with a face that seemed very satisfied with his discovery just now.

"Eh.. Why are Nura's sandals here anyway? What don't-don't.."

Eci immediately looked at the room where Nura was asleep. And apparently, his sister wasn't there. Eci was surprised not to play.

"Geez! Where the hell is Nura?? Did he go out to play at night? Wake up, didn't you?" Eci muttered while walking back to the back porch of the house.

His gaze then stared at the expanse of rice fields in front of his eyes. He lifted his gaze around the field. But never found the figure of Nura, his sister.

Feeling worried, Eci finally decided to look around the house. But he still did not find the existence of Nura. Just as he was about to go back inside the house to wake up Mom, Eci suddenly heard laughter in the distance.

"That's Nura's voice!" Excited Eci concluded the voice she had just heard.

It did not take long, Eci finally found her sister's figure was standing casually on the road a patch of rice fields. Eci was about to call her sister. But the tail of his eyes caught the appearance of another creature beside Nura.

The creature looks like a child but has a glowing membrane that covers the entire body. Starting from the top of the head to the tip of the foot.

Eci also gaped for a long time to see the appearance of the creature that he had thought as a ghost.

He was about to run away, but his feet seemed to be glued to the earth. He even painstakingly resisted the desire to pee at that time.

"I.that's.. han..ghost?!" Eci muttered with stammering.

After noticing the interaction between the ghost and Nura, Eci's mind could slowly calm down.

"Ah. but it doesn't seem to be. The proof is that I like to talk to him. Continues. What is he? Man in costume, are you?" I was busy thinking to myself.

A moment later, Eci saw the creature that resembled a small child change shape into a ball of light. And then the ball of light flew away from Nura.

Eci was surprised not to play. With fear that again attacked the mind of his boy, he immediately ran away from the ridge to leave the place. The goal is only one, which is to go back to his room again and forget what he just saw earlier.

....

the next morning, Eci woke up with a still-wary feeling. But then their house was made uproar with Nura's chatter about his alien friend who came to earth with a floating disc-shaped plane.

Eci was about to ask her sister. How can Nura not feel afraid when interacting with the alien. But then Nura showed everything about his experience flying in the sky with a flying scooter, as well as other experiences that made ECI amazed mixed with envy.

Because of that envy, Eci finally did not tell Nura the truth about what she witnessed last night. Instead, he accused Nura of slipping to sleep walking to the back hall of the house.

Because indeed, Nura was found by Mother asleep in the bale behind the house at dawn.

Eci continued to bully her sister with evil plagues. Calling Nura a liar, it was the ngibulan, and some other ploy that made Nura become annoyed and annoyed at him.

For the next few days he had a storm with Nura because of his sister's alien friend. Eci does not regret because she continues to mengedeki Nura. Because he did not want to show his envy for what his sister had experienced.

Eci knows full well that Nura doesn't lie about her story. Because Eci herself has seen the alien apparition that became Nura's friend.

But to say it to Mother, or Kak Lili? It feels better that Eci chooses to continue to mengedeki Nura only. Let him vent his frustration and envy towards his little sister.

And, because of that commotion, he and Nura received severe punishment from Mother. Cooking water in the furnace. Where it is tasked to go back and forth to take water from the river. While Nura is in charge of keeping the fire from extinguishing.

It was the heaviest and most grueling punishment Eci had ever received. And he was a little kapok because he had invited his sister noisily.

Even so, Eci still pretends never to see the alien. It would only be a childhood memory that he kept well in his childhood memories long ago.

Flashback complete.
