Pocong Terror in Rejo Pakis Village

Followed Until Home

I was silent and did not dare to answer when Mother's nagging he threw at me. It's true that this is all my fault. Too much to play until you know no time. It's just that it wasn't as fast as when I got home. The atmosphere still looks bright. However, while passing through Yu Siti's banana garden, my feet felt very slow and heavy to walk. So it feels like time is very fast spinning and the sun feels very fast disappearing.

"Yes, Mom. Wrong interest. Minah apologized." said slowly, who was still worried about the incident earlier.

Aki sighed violently. Grasping a warm tea glass I sat staring at the teplok lamp that was emitting its small flame. I observed every movement of fire that seemed to sway slowly in a glass cage to avoid exposure to the wind that could extinguish at any time.

"Think what, Nduk?" You patted my shoulder. I exhaled a rough breath. Not far from where we sit, Mother also sits and is busy arranging the emping package that she will rent tomorrow at the market.

"Father know? Minah came home not too late in the afternoon. It's just .." I'm not continuing my story. Afraid I'm angry again and don't believe my words.

"What's wrong? It's not usually you go out to play until you forget time."

"So when Minah passed through Yu Siti's banana garden, Minah's legs suddenly heavy and difficult to walk. It was as if Minah was just walking creeping no faster than a turtle." I said solemnly. Father scrunched his forehead. So too with Mom. He doesn't seem to be scolding me anymore. She looked at me and listened to my story.

"So, why would Minah be able to go home that afternoon?" Father asked back.

"That's it, sir. Since Minah's legs are heavy for walking, it feels like Minah is walking slowly. The sun was already sinking and dark. Keep it there ..." I shudder to remember the figure I met earlier on the way. I looked to my right and left to make sure the creature didn't follow him home.

"So why?" this time, I chimed in on my story.

"Ta .. earlier, Minah met a big and tall pocong there" I said to make the Father and Mother shocked.

"Minah didn't lie, Mom. Minah really met a pocong there."

We all fell silent. No one dared to make a sound until a sound like a loud kick sounded at the front door. I jumped and jumped in Mom's lap.

"Astaghfirullah, Minah." Mom glared because I immediately jumped without cue to make Mom's body look down and almost collapsed.

"Minah was shocked, Mom." I said lightly while grinning to make Mom spontaneously pinch my thigh.

"You take that home, Nduk" said the smiling Father. Although afraid, but we like to get used to the terror that likes to appear suddenly. All of that did not make us too afraid even though sometimes still like to be surprised when the figure appeared in the house.

"That doesn't seem to be Mas Samsul, sir." I whispered as I continued to hug Mom's body.

Pllaaakkk .. a hard blow landed on my right thigh. I grimaced as I rubbed the scars of Mother's blow that felt hot and painful.

Fortunately, the figure did not enter the house. I stared at the figure I had met in the banana garden. There was the sound of Mom snoring that looked very tired. I tilted my body to Mom and hugged her hand.

"I'm sorry Minah upset me today, ma'am." I whispered before going to bed.
