Patok Tumbal Village
CHAPTER 18 IS BACK
Budi and Dirga stared at the direction indicated by Jamal, the more they looked around them, the stronger the fact that the place they were now looking at, was the village of Turi.
"Don't we have been dragged into the world of the jinn. Just like Dirga who might be drawn to the world of jinn, that's why we don't realize Dirga who turned out to be beside us from earlier" Thought Budi increasingly becoming-so.
"Lu gausah thought strangely. It might just be an illusion" Saut Dirga tried to think positively.
"Illusion how!, this is too real to be called an illusion" Reply Budi.
"Udah is enough, because we are either an illusion or not. So what if we try to close our eyes together, if this is just an illusion, it might just disappear when we open our eyes again. But if it's real, then there's no other way than to get out of this place." Jamal's advice is to try to stay calm.
"OK, what's right you said." Saut Budi's. " Well, now let's close our eyes. In a matter of three, we should open our eyes simultaneously, okay?!" Budi Say.
They tried the advice given by Jamal, and closed their eyes. Count from number one to number three slowly. When the number three is called, they also open their eyes.
How shocked, the place they had just seen, turned into the Turi village they knew. Now Jamal, Budi, and Dirga are standing in the middle of the village, sir Kades and some residents are also seen trying to resuscitate them.
Once again they looked around with a look of disbelief, the charred village was burning, instantly becoming a whole village. Budi sat down while exhaling a sigh of relief, he considered the unpleasant scene earlier turned out to be just an illusion.
"Those three are okay, right?" Ask mr. kades with an anxious look on his face.
"Father, sir, we're fine" Jamal replied calmly.
"To be able to you three stand in this place, the father and some residents here from earlier have tried to make you realize, but you are not aware at all." Tell mr. kades.
"Yes, we are all worried because we think something happened to you" Saut bu Susi.
"I'm sorry for worrying our citizens, we don't know why we're like this" Jamal said.
"Dirga apparently you've met yes" Lega pak Tono.
"Ah, yes sir. Oiyaa, when we met Dirga, he was looking for alesan by saying that from then on he was beside us, but he didn't see him." Said Budi staring in annoyance at Dirga.
"Heh monkey!. Once again the cave tells you, the cave is from earlier beside you, but only you who do not see the cave. Don't look, just don't!" Pissed Dirga.
"You two can stay still" Gertak Jamal.
"Em..there is a possibility that Dirga son has been dragged into the world of jinn by a protective spirit, because some children in this village have also experienced things like Dirga son" Saut Bu Susi.
"Luckily, Dirga's son has been returned, how about you go home now. It's 20:45." Tell mr. kades.
"All right, Mom. Then, once again we thank you for making the three of us aware" Jamal said.
"No need to thank, then let's father between getting to the place to stay, surely your friends have been anxious waiting for the news of the three of you" Reply Mr. Tono.
"Oh yeah, the four of them must have been anxious. Then excuse me sir, ma'am" said Jamal.
"Yes, be careful" answered everyone.
Jamal, Budi and Dirga returned to the inn, accompanied by Mr. Tono and two other residents. Arriving at the inn, Jamal knocked on the door and was opened by Awal.
Early shocked and told the others, that Jamal and Budi had returned together with Dirga. Alia, Ulan, and Fitri hurriedly came out to see what Awal had said.
How happy they were to see the arrival of Jamal, Budi, and Dirga. The worry they had felt from earlier, instantly disappeared.
Mr. Tono and two residents also paid back to the village to guard the patrol post, because there only Danu sir who guard. Before they left, Alia asked them to stop for a while, but they refused.
They finally returned to the village, while the others entered the house. Inside, for some reason the atmosphere instantly turned even more awkward.
Ulan continued to look at Dirga who was sitting with a frightened look on his face, knowing that Ulan would definitely scold him all out. And sure enough, at once the outpouring of anger Ulan flared up everywhere.
Ulan also asked many questions to Dirga who seemed resigned to receiving Ulan's rant. Jamal, who looked pityfully at Dirga, finally told him what had really happened.
Although Jamal had said everything, Ulan still could not believe the answer. Who would believe such a story, let alone Ulan who absolutely did not believe in any events related to jinn or spirits.
Ali tried to win Ulan, and asked him to let Dirga rest, because he might be very tired, as well as Jamal and Budi. Because it was a request from Alia, Ulan complied.
But the three of them still had to tell him everything that had just happened.
Alia asked Fitri to help her bring the food she had prepared to the three of them. The food is not warm anymore, but of course it can still be eaten.
Jamal, Budi, and Dirga ate the food slowly. Everyone was a little confused and a little worried as well, as the three of them were just silent with gazes that seemed like someone was thinking about something.
Alia wanted to ask, but it was also not good to disturb someone who was eating. So Alia decided to wait for the moment when they finished eating only, because they also intended to tell her everything.
Everything was silent, only the sound of spoons and dishes could be heard. The atmosphere is very different from the yesterday.
After we finished eating, we all gathered to talk about the matter. Jamal told him what had happened, the three of them explanation about Dirga's disappearance, was indeed a little unreasonable. But Dirga said seriously that he was indeed beside us, but no one was aware of his existence.
