Nightmare Diaries
The Angker Banana Tree



"Din, you must be careful if for example you want to go through a small road to Mr. Camat's house. There was a banana tree that he said was haunted. People passing by often see the sighting of kuntilanak."


"Not to bother you. Yes I tell you, the ghost is not in our dimension that there is a genie. It's just human reason for nakutin. Even though the genie must have changed the form of the most if we read the prayer has vanished the creature."


"Ish, don't believe me. I'm serious Dinda. It's a ghost, it's got long hair all the way to the back, white clothes full of mud and no legs."


"Well, you know the shape of that cake? Ever seen?"


"I never actually saw it, but someone sent me the video. You wanna try to see?"


"No, waste of time I've seen such a nonsensical thing."


"Hmm, don't tell me you're afraid to not dare look at the video."


"Have a son! Not brave but lazy."


"As far as you go. I'm just warning you."


I just put my shoulders together, no matter what. The one who just spoke was my friend named Ryu. He's a little weird guy, likes to instantly believe in things that smell mystical. You could also say he is a horror maniac always updates and follows the news of sightings.


I am bodo very. What matters is that he is happy. As a good friend, I understand and don't worry about it. Another case with me who is not very confident about ghosts, creatures that are said to be creepy.


Maybe because I've never met, I don't know. Although I have often seen video sightings on television or YouTube, I think it is just an edit. But sometimes I also hope not to show up that rude-eyed creature in front of me. So the creeps themselves imagined it.


Today's lesson is over. Because our meeting teachers are welcome to go home quickly. I immediately took over the attention of my friends by standing in front because there was something I wanted to announce.


"My friends, I would like to invite you to come to my house tomorrow because there is a little kenduri. Don't forget to come!"


"Yeyyy, free food. Aman it's Din, we'll all come anyway, aren't friends?" the most rowdy class leader represented, all immediately cheered "yes".


I'm just smiling. It seems like tomorrow will be the busiest day for me. It's not uncommon for my mother to hold such an event. In addition to wanting to ask that all wishes be granted as well as a moment to glue harmony and brotherhood of the residents of one village.


"Din, spout!" Ryu waved his hand in front of the door. My other classmates have disbanded. I carry my bag and go home with Ryu.


...***...


"Dinda, please put this on the living room table. I'd like to buy some coconut milk at the store for a while, if there's a guest just tell me to come in." Mom handed me a big bowl of rendang. I rushed to the living room. There are all neatly arranged, ranging from carpets, various dishes at the table, milk syrup drinks and rows of tissue.


About five minutes later, guests began to arrive in my yard. I opened the door wide and let them in. The show is full until night. Later in the evening will be continued with joint studies.


I did not expect to be this many even friends who I had previously invited classmates even came half school, even though only a small event. I could not rest quietly because I was busy entertaining guests.


Until night comes. The village officials had gathered around the carpet as well as some residents who had attended also sat down. It takes place with the recitation of the prayers that want to be offered.


My work is done. So, I just stayed in the room while playing the phone.


Not felt the clock has shown at 21:00 WIB. Finally the show went well. The living room was empty and the food was all gone.


Now I have to clean up the remaining items in the room. Suddenly, my eyes caught a wallet lying in the corner of the carpet. I reached for the wallet, with photos, important cards and money inside.


"Mother, look at this there's a wallet left behind." I went to Mom who was watching, showed me the wallet.


"Astaghfirullah, this is Mr. Camat's wallet. You'd better get this back to its owner Dinda."


"Now, Mom? It's night, why not tomorrow."


"Most likely Mr. Camat will be looking for this wallet. The sooner you return it the better. Besides the house is not too far you can walk."


I have entered a small path that is a little more arriving at my destination. The dark atmosphere was wrapped around no lights only the light of the moon was slightly illuminating.


Beside the road, there was a limited garden full of small and large trees towering up. Suddenly I remembered the sighting on the banana tree that Ryu said yesterday.


I was looking for the existence of the tree. Incidentally, not far from where I was, it was clearly plastered with a wide trunk with a striking posture that made it easy to find it.


I looked at that banana tree for a long time. Suddenly, something cold tickled my body. I feel my hair goosebumps. The air around was getting weird, my throat was kind of choked. My heart doesn't fuck either.


I tried to think positively, forget what Ryu said earlier. The ghost doesn't existit's all just bullshit. I speed up my steps to get to Mr. Camat's house immediately.


Hi.hi.hi.hl.


As if something was preventing, I stopped. I think I heard people laughing. Nah! it might just be my hallucination. Come on, Dinda just keep going, don't think weird. Don't look everywhere and stay focused. I still insist on positive thinking even though the body is hot-cold.


Hi.hi.hi.hu.


I walked back quickly. Why from earlier was not even at his home, Mr. Camat. What is the influence of these subtle creatures. Oh God, please protect me.


Suddenly something as white as the wind flashed quickly in front of me making me automatically whine and fall. Blood seeped out of my knee forming a small wound. Be ill. I want to go home, I can't stand it anymore I started crying.


The laughing voice was getting clearer in my ears. I felt like someone was standing next to me. Right next to me. Out of curiosity as to who came, I slowly raised my head so that I could see it.


Degh's...


My body is numb. Just this time I saw him, the figure that was being touted as a ghost by the crowd was standing beside me, very close. Exactly as Ryu said, long hair to the back, white clothes splotched in mud and.no legs.


I wanted to scream but my voice couldn't get out. These tears are flowing more and more. I try to take my eyes off her by looking down. Anyone please save me!


"Son Dinda?!"


I looked at the source of the voice. I set the vision, that's Mr. Camat. He approached me who was astonished to sit on the ground.


"Sir!"


"Why are you here? and why sit on the ground like this? You're not papa?"


Mr. Camat stretched out his hand to help me stand up. I did not answer Mr. Camat's question and instead cried bitterly. As if understanding Mr. Camat immediately took me to his house.


After the situation stabilized again, I also told about the terrible incident and the purpose of my coming here. Mr. Camat nodded at my story. His wife who was serving hot tea joined in.


"Before thank you very much for Nak Dinda for returning your wallet. The plan you also want to go to your home to find his wallet. Accidentally you saw yourself sitting on that street, you think you're why Mr. Samperin."


"For the matter of that subtle creature, he does exist. Frequently appearing above nine o'clock at night. You know that big banana tree next to the road? That's his residence. I tried to cut down that tree but I couldn't."


"So, you don't intend to cut down again? He bothers a lot of people, sir." I feel frustrated remembering the incident.


"Can't be son. It will be at great risk. I thought this was mature, we better let it go until the creature moves."


"But sir what if there's another sighting?"


"The father wants to make a barrier wall on the side of the road until it covers the area of the garden. Don't worry, you will be responsible for this incident. And for the addition of the Father will call the distinguished Ulama to try to repel the creature."


I became relieved after hearing Mr. Camat's words. I hope no more victims experience this. Very scary.


Oh yes, from now on I have believed in the existence of ghosts or other supernatural things. Later I will tell back to Ryu and if possible I will ask for tips on how to ward off the subtle creatures.
