Chapter 1: Moving House



Ananda Rachel is a student in management. She felt less suited to the campus she would enter because her dream was to become a film actress instead of a company manager.


He lives apart from his parents, making him inevitably have to get used to living alone. Cooking, washing, rubbing your own clothes.


- Yesterday afternoon when rachel just finished moving to the flats -


Rachel accompanied her mother to her new home. His father could not drive because he was busy.


Before leaving rachel, the mother had made a wish to her distant relatives who happened to live in the same flats as rachel to look after her in case something happened. Moreover, rachel's menstrual cycle lately is unstable, making the mother more worried.


"you take it easy. Let me take care of Rachel. You just rest at home " said aunt rachel named miranda.


Rachel's mother, ayu, escorted her daughter to room 11 on the second floor. The apartment has 40 rooms with a total of 4 floors. You could say the flats are quite complete providing facilities. Think of it like a lower-middle-class hotel.


Rachel's family isn't poor nor is it rich, it's just in the middle. Rachel chose the flats because of their location close to campus. Understand as a teenage girl who has to live independently rachel does not want to be on the streets too long.


Ms. Mayu gave her the keys to rachel's room. The couriers had finished moving the large rachel luggage such as study tables, wardrobes, and dressers.


Ms. Ayu told rachel not to open the door for strangers. To anticipate the presence of stalkers or thieves, the flats install CCTV and iron bars on the windows, and place guards who will patrol every 3 hours.


"maybe the security costs are what makes room rental here so expensive. "bu ayu bergurai with rachel.


"don't talk rich that ma'am. later the landlord is horrified. "reply rachel.


"they won't be horrified chel. CCTV cannot record sound. "


Rachel said goodbye to her mother.she was also given aunty miranda number to keep watch in case something happened.


Rachel locked the door. He turned on the lights, closed the window in the living room, then took a towel and took a bath. After bathing rachel brushed her teeth, then into the kitchen to cook noodles, the flagship menu when lazy to cook rice.


the kitchen facilities are quite complete, provided furniture such as a refrigerator, electric stove complete with a long table in the middle of the kitchen, sink to wash dishes, and drawer drawers to put spices and others.


After cooking Rachel put food on the living room table. The living room is also very nice. The combination of cappuccino colors with bright orange on the walls gives the impression of comfort and tranquility.


In the living room is provided a small sofa, a table set with a sofa, and a 27-inch tv led with a clear broadcast.


Rachel was curious about what facilities were provided. Honestly, he was the first time here. His father and mother did not say what about the house other than the price is quite cheap and said to be fully equipped.


Initially Rachel hesitates with the facilities offered but after seeing it straight away she feels like slapping herself in the past.


The stacking house even arranged the room with a very neat and pleasing to the eye with the position of the bed in place away from the window.


Rachel went to the toilet. The bathroom and toilet are separated. Although the position of the toilet and room are close together but the smell of garbage disposal will not be smelled into the room, because the walls are cement. That means if there are noisy neighbors, the sound will not penetrate into other rooms.


"Rachel likes the same place! thanks dad, mom. Rachel promised to be diligent in learning. "murm rachel while putting on a bright smile.


Rachel opened her bag, then picked up a daily book. Rachel flipped the cover of the book, flipping one by one page until she reached the middle of the still empty.


There he wrote his daily with the title,


Moving to a 5-star apartment.


I finally started living independently today. No more crows, children playing, wherever the fathers are, everything is quiet like this heart. My new home is more comfortable than I expected. It's just that this silence makes me a little uneasy. I hope tomorrow will be better than today.


Rachel closed her diary. Usually he wrote two stanzas but since this was his first night in the new house he dedicated himself to making one.


The night was getting late and there was not the slightest sound. The silence was new for Rachel, because her former home was in the middle of a densely populated village, so there was always a sound if the house people did not come out to reprimand.


In the morning, the kids play marbles. During the day there are children hide and seek. In the afternoon there are children playing kites. At night there are fathers hanging out. At midnight the gentlemen are still hanging out. Early in the day it was getting quiet, but it was only a few hours until the mainstay rooster crowed loudly.


Because it is used to the noisy environment, silence so gripping. Rachel threw away all the disturbing thoughts. He changed his sanitary pad and went to sleep after setting the alarm.


***


At exactly 06:00 rachel woke up fit, because yesterday she went to bed early at 10 p.m.


"no chicken, right? " rachel's a little delirious.


He opened the curtains of his room. The sunlight did not lead to his room. He opened all the curtains and went into the bathroom.


After taking a bath, Rachel heard a knock on the door. Before opening the door she recalled her mother's message not to open the door for strangers. So rachel asked the identity of the knocker before opening the door.


"who's outside?? "


"this is aunt miranda. Good morning rachel. "


Rachel rushed to open the door after finding out it was aunt miranda.


"sorry tant, I'm afraid of strangers. "


"Father, just be careful is good. "


"What is tant? " ask rachel straight to the point.


"You ate, right? if you already do if you join a jogging aunt, all aunts know you the same region here. "


Rachel raised her forehead. He did not expect his aunt to have such a hobby. He did not reject her because indeed he had to memorize his new residence area.


Rachel changed her clothes immediately. Because her clothes are still messy in the suitcase, so rachel is lazy to look for her clothes and decided to wear her High School menjaskes pants only.


Although it looks a bit strange rachel is not too concerned about it, her aunt also only wears stocking pants to run.


Rachel and aunt miranda started running when they got to the bottom. Aunt Miranda adjusted her speed to rachel, as their speed was out of balance.


Aunty miranda designed morning running route through several public places such as alphamart, indomaret, atm machine, cafe, restaurant, puskesmas, hospital, private pool, etc, and prestigious schools such as schools called smk elite technology. Because that route of his journey so far away.


An exhausted Rachel decides to buy a drink at alfamart on the way home. He also gives chuncky bars, fantas, potato chips and other snacks.


"waduhh, if you eat that much as aunty should take a jog every day, "aunty miranda teases rachel.


"i-it's for later malem kok tant, " said rachel embarrassed.


First time aunt miranda saw rachel blushing. According to her aunt miranda, rachel is dozens of times prettier when shy of cats. Rachel who heard that went red.


Arriving at aunt miranda's flats parted ways with rachel. Aunt miranda's room is on the first floor near the landlord's combined room. Aunt Miranda also tells rachel that the doorknob is attached to a mirror that allows her to see the body of the person who knocked on her door.


If it feels that people are not known, rachel can contact security guard through the number given yesterday by aunt miranda. Actually yesterday aunt miranda gave the phone number 3 people to rachel, namely her phone number, the phone number of security sir, and one more phone number of her son, the phone number of her son, aka Rachel's distant cousin who works as a food deliveryman.


"if there is any phone or security number sir or aunt, the aunt's son is a bonus. "


Rachel went into her room and locked the door as usual. He did not feel any negative air in that place. The apartment was just a little quiet.


When going down the stairs rachel did not cross paths with any neighbors or residents from other floors, even though there are only 2 stairs that directly connect all floors. It is strange that the sevital facility is not used by many people.


Rachel tried to ignore the strangeness.


"Maybe the people here are diligent in going to work at dawn. That's why no one looks. "


Rachel took the laptop from inside her bag. Then open the coreldraw application to create a logo design.


About 3 hours rachel made the logo, she started to feel bored and tired. Because the logo he had to make had a rather complicated idea and sketch of the image. Not to mention after this he had to create a 3d version of his logo.


While eating the potato chips rachel decided to take a short break. He turned on the tv, changed the channel to the channel to find a talk show.


But there is no good news on tv, except for the news of the attack carried out by the guardians of students to a private school in the village. He said the news anchor until there are students and students who go up to the roof to avoid the tantrum of the student guardians.


The problem is thought to be the meaning of school policies that implement an inappropriate caste system that causes large amounts of bullying.


[worse still, the school argued that the system was deliberately implemented because he wanted students to grow physically and mentally strong. ]


"the world is getting more absurd, "rachel murmured. He turned off his tv and went back to making a logo design. Rachel also refused a phone call from her smk friend and told the school grub not to have anyone call her for one day.


***


Rachel's job is done. He kept looking at the laptop for 8 hours without a break. Looking for references to a logo.


After completing the grueling work, Rachel returned to writing in her diary. However just as he was about to scratch the ink a knock on the door sounded from the front door.


Once again rachel was careful before opening the door. He peered out through the hole in the handle to ensure the stature of the person in front.


Surprisingly Miranda could see the chest of the person standing in front of her door, but the position of the doorknob was low enough that there was no way she could see the chest of an adult.


"what is a child? I'll just ask you "inner rachel.


"who yes? " ask rachel while peeking.


All of a sudden the guy hits rachel's door making rachel panic a little. Rachel asked again.


"who's there? don't hit people's doors. "


Rachel's question was not answered. The mysterious person walked to the left side of the door. Slowly rachel land her ear to the door to listen to the footsteps of the man.


Shortly thereafter.


Brakk!


The door was hit.
