PART 3 - POWER OUTAGES



After work we went back to walking a lot while chattering about the practice of this first day. Some can immediately make friends, some tell stories that the work is fun, some tell stories that have unfriendly colleagues, until someone says 'my work is the same as handsome people. Seneeeeng. Create a work spirit.'


Stop by the food stall we visited this morning, we queued long. It turns out that this shop is very crowded. A few times more than this morning. It's a favorite stall.


As soon as it was our turn, we who had got a pack of rice waiting for the others outside the stall so as not to narrow the food stall room.


Ahhe... I just felt how tired it was to work. This is all I am still in training and have not been given heavy duty, especially if I have really been an employee of the company later? Wearied... My leg almost broke from standing for eight hours, during my work hours.


And now a little bit I understand the tiredness of my parents while working to support our family. Ah I remember Mama at home away from me. Also miss Papa who works out of town. I'll call later after I shower and eat. My body is already sticky from ssharian sweating. And my stomach worms are already screaming for nutrition.


*****


Chatting with Mama over the phone turned out to make me miss. Increasingly missed. Indeed, I have been used to doing anything myself, not spoiled, was trained to be independent. But being in a different place with family still feels different. It feels like something is empty. But this is my choice. I have to stay here to achieve my dream.


Waitaminute! My dream is not to be a worker. But with work I can start to achieve my dreams. Later in the future I will tell you what my ideals are. At least it needs to raise capital, right? Financial capital is also mental capital.


"Ay, play guitar again gih, so it is not lonely this boarding house. Like this uninhabited house." Said Fara who had just come out of the bathroom while rubbing her wet hair with a small towel. He was just about to eat. After returning home, I used to take a shower while he was still playing mobile phones.


"And you still want to eat, Fa."


"Emangs. So why?"


"Who will sing?"


"Yes, it's you, Ay. Usually if you can play guitar the sound is also definitely good. Aren't you?


"Let's go, I still want_"


Tok to tok.


My voice was cut off by the sound of knocking on the door.


"What?" Fara asked who was confused as to why I didn't finish my sentence.


"There's a door, right?"


"Huh? A timing? I didn't hear it." Reply Fara with a mouth full of food.


"Ih, ada, Fa. You really don't hear. I open the door first. Friends want to play." I got up from my seat and walked towards the door. I held the doorknob, pulled slowly and the door opened.


I was angry because no one was there.


"Who? Who hit the door just now?" I was a little screaming. But still no answer.


"Who the hell? Don't joke, dong." I said again.


"Who, Ay?" Ask Fara who is standing near me.


"No idea. There's no one." My answer. I walked in first. Soon Fara came in and closed the door again.


"Well, there was no one?" Ask Fara curiously.


"But I didn't hear anyone knock on the door either, Ay." Connect Fara.


"I heard, Fa. Ah most prankster." Reply indifferently.


After I finished speaking, the door was knocked back.


Tok to tok.


I nodded and opened the door quickly.


"Ay, teach me to play guitar dong." Said Sasi who immediately said after the door opened.


"You're doing everything." I said pissed.


"Why did you knock on the door first?" I said again.


"Huh?" Sasi looks confused. Is that maybe not Sasi? Or is he ekting?


"I just got here, Ay. I don't know you." From his eyes it read that he really meant it. There are no lies.


Who knocked on the door? Ah most other friends.


Not wanting to scare Sasi and Fara who were looking at me probing, I immediately let Sasi in.


"Jaudah yuk come in first. Fara's still eating."


Pet. Darkened. I just wanted to step in and suddenly the power went out.


Sasi was screaming in shock.


Instantly the occupants of these costs go all out, seeking illumination.


"Why did the lights go out anyway? It was dark in the middle of the forest. Find a stall near where to try?" Gerrutu one of the. I can't see who's talking because it's dark.


"I know next door there are stalls. Let's buy some candles." One of the others chimed in.


As usual organizing, some people go to the stall and some stay and just leave to buy candles.


Suddenly my feelings became bad. Suddenly I was goosebumps like someone was blowing my nape.


I chose to sit on the terrace with Sasi and Fara. Sasi and Fara were still grumbling as to why the lights had suddenly turned off.


I'm not too focused on their next speaker. Because my current focus on a figure did not tread the land that had just passed without excuse. I subconsciously advanced myself to pay attention to her and realized that she disappeared after entering the hallway near the end room.


The boarding houses here every room there is a bulkhead in each room. So I can't see his figure right away if I don't pop my head outside the wall.


He didn't retrace? And disappeared?


Cold sweat came out without me noticing. The trees swayed in the wind. The wind is getting stronger and stronger.


All the trees were moving in the direction of the wind. But there was one tree that remained motionless, not even its leaves moved.


That's a noni tree. The tallest tree of the other trees.


Think about. Is not the higher the tree, the more the wind will rise? But he didn't. He's staying calm. Why can it be like this? That's what I'm still asking.


My heart is beating erratically. What's wrong with me? Why in one day I've seen the apparition twice. Especially if this is a light off. The atmosphere around me felt so tense when clearly Sasi and Fara were still talking and joking not far from me standing. Wh why?


"Aye. Ayri!" The touch of Andi mas who had been in front of me since when, shook my shoulders. He said I didn't say it despite being called so many times. It only dawned after Andi shook my shoulders slowly.


"Ay, what's wrong with you? Is there anything magical? Or what's up?" Sasi's question imprinted an aura of anxiety. Fara came closer.


"Dad." Call Andi again because I'm still a little unconscious. I don't know why my mind drifts somewhere I don't know.


"I'm not a papa, Sas." My answer forced a smile.


"Mas Andi should be guarding here. Why is it so long ago?"


"Sorry, Ay. I just bought some more food. Guards need to eat, right?" Andi tried to joke.


"Bus,_"


"I know." Cut Andi's mas while covering my mouth with his index finger. Then hinted to talk about this later. There are Fara and Sasi.


"Know what mas?" Tanya Fara frowned.


"Know that the lights are off. That's why I was in such a hurry back."


"Oh, kirain knows what." Reply Fara looked rather disappointed.


"Judah I'll take the candle first, Ay." Pamit Farah.


"Yes." Yeah."


Sasi also left me and Andi mas only two.


"Bag,"


"Oh, please don't tell anyone." Andi looked begging.


"I'm afraid you're afraid. I'm guarding here so I also doubt there's anything in here. There's me, Ay. If you're afraid you can find me. But please don't scare them."


"What if I find Andi's mas means I'll be safe? Did Andi have the strength to keep them away from me?"


Mas Andi nodded.


"Why mas Andi didn't tell anyone who had a boarding house that this place is haunted." Instantly my mouth was smothered strongly by Andi's hand.


"Please, Ay. I don't want to cover this up. But I don't want to tell them either. All I want is for them to know for themselves."


I breathe heavily.


"I understand, mas." I said in the end. Although there are still many questions that I have not asked Andi, but I let this conversation end just before Sasi and Fara heard this conversation.


I looked around to take my eyes off Andi. And what did I find? A man with long hair in white was sitting on top of the precarious. Like watching all of us. Although not clearly visible I can confirm that her face is not beautiful anymore. His face was likely crushed or perhaps covered in blood. Again he is an astral creature.


Realizing that I continued to stare at one focal point, Andi also looked at my gaze. When Andi found what I saw, the man turned to look at me. Like not happy.


I'm limp. My legs don't feel like I have the strength to put my weight on. I was sweating more due to being stared at by an astral creature that could be said to be ugly. I felt Andi's mas supporting my body from the side. And after that it was all dark. I was unconscious.
