Misty Soil

Unraveling

Sandika runs away from Murga, promising to return soon. Extremely heavy to let go, Murga hugged the man's field chest as if unwilling to let go. Sandika remained on defense guarding every thing so that her mind did not possess the demons.

“Murga wait a minute here” whispered Sandika.

Hearing the gentle man's voice, Murga slowly let go. He saw the man's back running until it disappeared from sight. Sandika remembers where she last hid her car. However, his arrival has been welcomed by Warid and Beben as well as the aides.

“You guys who are siding with me quickly help me tie that guy up!” snapped Sandika.

“And you Beben, my friend who will not betray me right?” sandika is back.

“Sorry Sandika, for the affairs of the demonic woman, I attach more importance to your safety, said Beben berlagak.

“You my aides, help me avoid these enemies.”

There were ten men of great stature, five of whom were Warid's followers and five were Sandika's followers. The long fight was inevitable, and Warid and Beben teamed up to stop Sandika from getting into her car. He was forced to hit Warid's face and mengedang Beben, but the car keys were successfully taken Warid and then in the bush. Sandika took her purse and backpack in the car. He pushed, threw the two with a block of wood then ran as fast as he wished they could not find it.

Sandika memorized where she last left Murga. In between the footprints and the broken branches that he arranged as before so that they did not succeed in following. As the day began to evening, the sounds of the wild animals of the night broke the silence. He remembered Murga's message to turn off the lighting while in the middle of a strange-looking forest. The noisy sound from the distance was getting more and more audible, he was hiding a peek at the red-smelling long haired female figure flying over him.

He held his breath, looked for the moss near him then smeared his body. A few minutes passed before the figure disappeared flying a foul scent and black blood droplets. Almost he became the food of the figure of Rambe, a grumpy ghost who hates humans.

“Murga!” the sound of the figure echoed from a distance.

“Could he be the ghostly figure of Rambe that Murga says?” muttered Sandika slowly continued her steps.

Paijo was not seen for almost a week but the four women seemed to care less and instead partied squandering money and shopping to spend the money given by Paijo. The workers could only fall silent at their orders, until one day one of the workers accidentally spilled a drink on Leni's shirt.

“You have no eyes anyway? Your salary for years is not enough to buy my expensive clothes!”

“Sorry madam, I didn't accidentally."

“What? Very light your answer! you should be taught a lesson!”

Leni violently grabbed her hair, she dragged the woman into one of the rooms and locked her from the outside. The other workers could only look down on the woman's cruelty while her friends laughed around the glass filled with liquor.

“What do you want for that maid?”

“Already Len, you tell him to wash your clothes affected by the drink until it is clean.”

“My advice is to let him sleep outside.”

The third speech is only a light figment, because for Leni his branded expensive clothes are very valuable and he likes the most. He was busy fiddling at the phone screen, his face changed into a smile. He stood at the door like he was waiting for someone.

The sound of a car horn entering the courtyard of the house, three men wearing jeans suits and a smiling leather jacket shook hands with Lina. They were let in, Lina opened the door inside which a worker had been working. The sound of terrified screams and begging for help while the three men laughed in excitement shut the door again.

“Ahahah! That's the result of your carelessness! For the other workers, this is a valuable learning example if you dare to fight me!” said Leni high-pitched.

The other workers no one dared to help him, they just looked at each other and looked down again. The clock's needle rang right in the middle of the night to the sound of a hysterical worker's scream was shocked to see Tio hanging himself with his tongue out and eyes open.

“Any noise! Why are you yelling?” ask Flowers.

“Mistress, look at Tio hanging herself!”

The flower-eye bead widened to witness the death of the worker who had just been severely beaten by Leni last afternoon. So did Floren and Keke who did not believe the worker dared to end his own life. They wake Leni and tell her the news of the death of the woman she tortured, but the woman looks ordinary and even wraps her body in a very sexy dress with a thick blanket.

“Urus alone the body, take the money in Paijo's mas room! Don't bother me!” snapped Leni.

Siti's Dream

The dense fog still remains the same stretching over the water surface of the Lake. The woman who had forgotten the man she once loved was now present in her dream. He disturbs the woman's mind inside the trick of the ghostly figure of Rambe. Gama stood up wearing a black shirt waving blood tears, his floating body calling out Siti's name twice.

“Mas Gama” reply Siti.

“Siti, come and meet me here!”

The last sentence of Gama goes back into the water. Siti woke up, seeing the time shows at 01.00 WIB. The sound of a window knock, he moved to shift the curtain to see Gama's face rotting out worms and maggots. Siti screamed in fear, she opened her eyes again waking from a dream. To make sure that he was still in the dream or not then he pinched his own hand.

“Auw pain!”

Realizing she has woken up from her dream, Siti searches for Beben and Sandika's contact numbers. Only Beben answered his call.

...💀💀💀...

_Hello Beben, I just had a dream Gama. He asked me to meet him at Misty Lake_

_Siti's Heart, it's possible that the one in your dream is not Gama_

_But, Gama looks like he is in pain and in desperate need of help_

_Siti I'll call you later. Take good care of yourself_

...💀💀💀...

Beben ended the conversation. He and Warid are still busy looking for Sandika who escaped from them. In the forest, they lit the brightest lights, every tree in the torch-binding and the great burning of fire. As if they were going to burn the entire forest, the aides were ordered to split up.

“Uncle, four guards have disappeared in the swallow of these forest dwellers. I became worried about Sandika” Beben said.

“Yes, we must remain vigilant. I'll call the guards and other aides from the city to help me through the forest looking for him.”
