CHAPTER 2
Time Pandu urged suspiciously, Dhamayanti just replied, “For him I so broke up with Erwan !”
Pandu remembers, Dhamayanti was once girlfriend with Erwan, her college friend. Their relationship breaks up because Erwan is attracted to Dhamayanti's neighbor girl, Agnes. But according to Pandu, it was not Agnes' fault because Agnes never responded to Erwan.
Dhamayanti himself sentenced to part with Erwan. Once separated from Dhamayanti, Erwan did continue to pursue Agnes, but Agnes still never considered Erwan's presence. Agnes actually sring complained to Pandu, and through complaint after complaint it was finally Pandu himself attracted to Agnes.
A few questions arise in Pandu. Was Agnes' miserable state the result of Erwan's actions? Did Erwan cut Agnes' head off and steal her chest down? What did he cut it with? And where's that body taken?
How mysterious. It is amazingly strange this event.. !
It's so sorry, Agnes. He was not made to die, but neither was he alive. It's depressing. Agnes' head was now placed on a pillow. The pillow was inside a translucent glass cabinet.
The top of the closet is deliberately dismantled by Pandu so that there is air coming in. Because, when the top was not opened, Agnes once said to Pandu, “My breath is tight. I'm short of Oxygen..!”
Although in the heart Pandu was surprised to see a man without lungs but needed oxygen, Agnes' request still was still considered. That's why the top of the closet was opened, so that if the closet door was closed, Agnes could still get oxygen.
The closet is in Pandu's room full of metal band posters. The cupboard was originally used to store glassware in the dining room. Since Agnes' case, the closet has been emptied and moved to Pandu's room.
When Agnes was closing her eyes the sign she was sleeping, Pandu often noticed from outside the closet. It was like watching fish in an aquarium. Sometimes on the contrary, Pandu sleeps in his bed, Agnes notices from inside the closet.
“Guide... I'm hungry.” said Agnes.
Fidelity, Pandu fed him with porridge. Even if only eating porridge, but Pandu and the others felt astonished. Because, from the head piece of the neck. The porridge doesn't come out anymore. The porridge has been swallowed into the stomach without visible marks at least in the neck. Likewise drinks, Agnes like a natural human being who can vertical up a glass of water without any leakage of a single drop in the neck.
“Where is the running of the food and drink he swallowed, yes?” muttered her father Pandu when he saw Agnes being fed by Pandu.
“Obviously there is a mystic power that has made it that way,” Om Harman told his father Pandu.
“That mystic power cannot be reckoned with logic. Fantasies once, but real proved,” continued Om Harman
“I mean Om Harman, someone stole Agnes' body with the power of Invisibility?” ask Pandu.
“Yes, that is according to some opinions of our neighbors, Pandu.” The answer was when asked Pandu
‘Mistics.?’ Pandu pondered for a moment. “Honey since childhood I do not believe in mystic power.”
“And now you've seen the evidence yourself, haven't you?” his father said, Guide about the mystics.
Pandu's father believed in the magical power of money wandering around them, but at that time Pandu always denied it. It says superstition, nonsense, hallucinations, and so on.
But with the reality that was in front of his own eyes, now Pandu became thinking. What kind of mystical power does one possess, so as to steal Agnes' body in such a way? Who had used that mystic power actually?
Agnes herself is also a person who does not believe in the existence of supernatural powers. What is related to the supernatural power he considers as something that is impossible and nonsense.
But, when he experienced such a Fate, his mind began to change. Even he had asked his mother who came to visit in the afternoon, “Have you been looking for a shaman for me, Ma?”
With wet eyes, her mother Agnes replied, “Already. Mama called Eyang Gani. Later tonight he will come and see you.”
Eyang Gani is a call to a thin man of sixty years old, almost the age of his father Pandu. He is a paranormal character who refuses to be called a shaman. He can see the fate of a person in the future.
He was able to see strange creatures that no one else could see. It is even said that he has a beautiful fairy wife who can also never be seen by ordinary people.
When Eyang Gani saw the true state of Agnes, he did not show his surprise. He only slightly narrowed his eyes in looking at Agnes. Meanwhile, Agnes herself did not dare to look at Eyang Gani because of her sadness and embarrassment.
“Where is the father of this child now.?” Ask Eyang Gani to his mother Agnes.
At that time, who was present around Eyang Gani in addition to his mother Agnes, also his father Pandu and Pandu himself.
Her mother Agnes replied, “His father is in Kalimantan. We parted ways since Agnes was fifteen.”
“Since then, has Madam remarried,” Back Anyang Gani asked
Her mother Agnes shook her head, “Not Eyang. I devote more attention and energy to Agnes, because she is actually the only jewel of the heart that is able to encourage my spirit to stay alive and working.”
“Can his father be called home and reunited with Agnes?” Ask Eyang Gani Again.
“Shall I work on it, Eyang. But does this have anything to do with his father?” ask Agnes' mother.
Eyang Gani nodded with calm. “The relationship between the son and his father remains. But, that does not mean events like this are the deeds of his father.”
“Sorry Eyang... So take Eyang, where is Agnes's body?” Ask politely.
Eyang Gani's eyes still looked at Agnes with a slight meyipit, but he still answered Pandu's question. His voice was slow, flat, like a lazy person speaking.
“Someone has stolen it with the intent of deliberately making Agnes suffer. I feel there's a sick-hearted vibe behind this strange incident.”
“Hearts to Agnes.?” Ask Pandu.
Eyang Gani closed his eyes for a moment. His right hand was superimposed on Agnes' head. Then, after a few moments of silence, he replied, “Not necessarily to Agnes. Maybe he hurt his mother or his father.”
Can't stand Aunt Mirah, her mother Agnes was holding back her tears. The water mat itu melted to the cheek, making her breathless. Make him sob and bow his head.
“Can the body not be returned.?” ask her father Pandu
“Why not.?” Said Eyang Gani. “The problem is, where the body is now. If I find the body, then I can return it to its place of origin.”
“So, apparently it is very difficult to find where Agnes' body is hidden by someone, huh Eyang?” tanya Pandu's
Eyang Gani whose hair was white was all muttering. ‘Her cup there is little doubt on her’. Again he put his hand on Agnes' head. After he lifted Agnes' head, it was placed in front of him in a position to back him. This time his hands were superimposed on Agnes' head, overlapping each other. At that time, he said, “I'll try looking in another realm.”
Eyang Gani closed his eyes slowly, the others looked at each other. Pandu himself is not familiar with the words ‘search in nature lain’. His father at that time, whispering the word in the ear of Pandu/
“We help pray only, so that Eyang Gani managed to break through the occult and find the body of Agnes” said his father Pandu.
Pandu just understood, that what ‘alam lain’ means is supernatural nature. Nature that every human being cannot enter. That's why Pandu doesn't talk much. He helped create an atmosphere of silence that is certainly needed by Eyang Gani.
The night began to bring a wind line south. The wind feels cold on the body. Agnes closed her eyes to help Eyang Gani concentrate. He was in front of Eyang Gani who was sitting cross-legged on the fighting floor, in the guide room.
Moments later, Eyang Gani opened his eyes, moving his hand from above Agnes' head. The others sighed, waiting for an explanation from Eyang Gani.
Agnes opened her eyes, glancing down. As if to find out if the body has returned or not. It turned out that he was still in such a state, without a body.
Pandu says, “There, Eyang. Hhmm.. salt only?”
“Yes. Salt only, put it on a plate yes.” command Eyang Gani.
Pandu hurriedly prepared the request of Eyang Gani. As Pandu left, there was no dialogue between them. Eyang Gani's hand just rubbed Agnes' hair with the attitude of being moved to see the fate of the poor beautiful girl.
“This is the salt, Eyang.. Enough?” Ask Pandu
“Enough.” Eyang Gani replied remained calm, showing his patience.
Both hands are Eyang Gani******-****** those salts. It was as if he washes his hands with salt on a shard plate. I don't know what Eyang Gani said when washing hands with salt, which clearly looks like his mouth is muttering.
After a while, the two hands clapped each other cleaning the salt attached to the palm. It can't be clean at all. But that was just a condition for him.
Then Eyang Gani again placed his hand on Agnes' head while saying,
“Sorry yes, son. Mau ride through for a while.”
Agnes did not answer, for she herself did not understand the meaning. Agnes looked only at her mother, and her mother closed her eyes while melting tears. Then Agnes looked at Pandu, when their eyes met each other.
Pandu gestured with his finger Gestures to keep Agnes calm.
When Agnes looked at her father Pandu, the old and slightly fat man smiled faintly. Just to make Agnes' heart not to feel too tense.
Eyang Gani closed his eyes again. Silent created. The wind felt stronger. The sound of his breathing could be heard roaring. The night felt quiet with no other sound except the roar of the wind and the seconds of the wall clock.
About fifteen minutes of peacock in silence without smelling the smoke of incense. Through fifteen minutes, there was a rumbling sound of wind blowing even louder. Blowing wind this time is accompanied by a splashing speck of rain on the tile.
Agnes opened her eyes looking at Pandu, as if to express her fear. The guide remained calm, gesturing with a hand to keep Agnes calm as well.
Her mother Agnes watched her son since then without moving. While Pandu's father only bowed his head, as if to pray that the effort to find and restore Raga Agnes could succeed.
The drizzle splinter turns into rain grains. The longer the more the thundering. The wind turned into a storm. There was a dipper sound in the kitchen that fell to the floor due to the wind. There was the sound of the door knocking from Pandu's father's room.
Stiffen once the seconds passed from those fifteen minutes. Even now there was the sound of lightning that glazed like a fire whip that whipped in the sky. Dduuuara…!
Eyang Gani's body jerked, but tetao closed his eyes and laid his hands as before. Only, this time the forehead of Eyang Gani looked wrinkled. It seemed like there was something he needed to fight with quite a strong concentration.
Dduuuaar,,,…! Once again a burst of lightning shook Eyang Gani's body. It also thrills the heart of her mother Agnes, and makes the heart of Pandu beat. Start cold sweat out of their pores.
It was even more stressful after they both looked towards the plate filled with salt. The salt moves by itself. The longer the number shrinks. The salt grains were sucked to the bottom of the plate.
Her mother Agnes swallowed her own saliva with a heavy breathing. He widened his eyes when he saw the amount of salt was getting smaller. Maybe just a pinch. And it continues to diminish, eventually becoming depleted altogether. The plate becomes empty. Clean.
Praaaaang…. !
“Haahh..?!” her mother Agnes was suffocated in one jerking breath.
The plate broke without anyone touching it. The frown of Eyang Gani is getting sharper.
The hand of the old man wearing a koko shirt without the crate trembled. His sweat began to wet the forehead, neck, and around his mouth. It seems like Eyang Gani is in need of a lot of calm.
It made her mother Agnes shifted from her seat, backward approaching her father Pandu. While Pandu itself remains in place with both eyes starting to widen.
Lightning explosions were heard again, this time making the hand of Eyang Gani was jerked upwards. Ddduuuuaarr…..!
The hand returned. But oppress each other. Attached to the crown of Agnes. Agnes's face turned pale without sweat, while Eyang Gani's face was pale and sweaty.
Agnes opened her eyes, biting her own lips. Very significantly is holding back a very gripping feeling of fear.
“Hhhheeeeeggghhh...” Eyang Gani held his breath until groaning like a person in pain. His hands are shaking. Even his entire body was now trembling, like a shivering person. His face was crinkled very sharply, a sign that he was holding something that needed to be fought with extra energy.
The lightning bolts….. Ddduuabruar…!
Coinciding with that, Eyang Gani's body jerked backwards. Both of his hands were raised up. His feet are still cross-legged. An unknown touch of where it came from had made Eyang Gani's back collide with the wall. Real loud. Until Eyang Gani calls a vote, “Huuuughh!” eyes glaring.
They become very tense. Pandu immediately grabbed Agnes head and hugged her to the chest. Their eyes widened to see Eyang Gani's body lifted up with his back fixed against the wall but his butt was no longer on the floor.
His body was getting higher and higher. His mouth was gaping with his head twitching in confusion.
“Uuuuaaaahhh..!” Eyang Gani widened his mouth, and at that moment came a red liquid out of the mouth of Eyang Gani. The liquid was thick and red in color, gushing out to splatter everywhere.
“Ohhhh..!” Screeched on Agnes' mother.
The horrifying sight left them speechless on the spot, with wide-eyed and gaping mouths.
The skinny man's body moved straight up with a slow movement. He could not move his legs in a cross-legged state, but he could move both of his steps flailing in confusion looking for a place to hold on.
“Hoooeekkk..!” Eyang Gani again spouted a thick blood of blackish-red from his mouth. Even now his nostrils also emit thick blood.
“Do something for him, Panduuuu....!” Strangled Agnes with a tense voice.
Pandu. Just as panicked as his own father. Meanwhile, her mother Agnes could only hide behind Pandu's back with breathless breathing and an uncritical scattering voice.
“Aaakkkhhh...!” Eyang Gani covered his ears with both hands. Because from his ear hole it was now removing thick blood that soaked the wall.
The body kept rising up. The head of Eyang Gani to the ceiling of the room. And at that moment, Eyang Gani As dropped from above.. Braaakkk !
“Aaakkhhh..!” Uncle Eyang Gani as soon as his ass hits the floor.
Pandu wanted to come closer and help, but he immediately retreated while still holding Agnes' head. Because at that moment, from both eyes Eyang Gani let out a red liquid. The blood that came out of his eyes was so swift, as if it wanted to make the two eye seeds jolt out.
“Aauuu.” Her mother Agnes screamed with all her might at the horrible and disgusting sight.
The body of Eyang Gani wriggled unsteadily with a bath of blood. The amount of blood that comes out is almost the same as the amount of blood in the body of every human being. The floor was muddled with blood. The fishy smell spread everywhere.
Meanwhile, the storm surge was getting more intense. Lightning flashes are earthy, blaring explosions are not broken with each other, so the sky feels like it is about to collapse. The floor was becoming more pronounced. It's noisy.
The body of Eyang Gani was struggling with blood that was still gushing continuously from the various vaults on his body. So panicked was the atmosphere that Agnes cried out loudly.
“Stop…..! Stop....!”
