Red Cape

26

We walked together, formed a banner with Grandma who led and Isah behind.Towards the place to go, Grandma, Father and Mother earlier.

I looked around the streets that I passed a little muddy.Many bushes running everywhere, the more we walked.The roads that passed were increasingly dark and gloomy.

From far away I vaguely saw a banyan tree that was very large, larger than the banyan tree in the cemetery.There I saw a seat made of stone, with offerings that had been available.My heart rumbled, and,I tightly knitted my finger once in a while squeezing it withstanding the growing fear.

I saw Isah, right in my later, I put on my scared face to him.He seemed to smile soothingly as if everything would be fine.

I saw Dara's reaction, I felt she was starting to get scared, from the beginning we all walked further to a place where their Dara Father turned into a Devil.

Dara looked increasingly agitated and afraid, when from a distance I saw a large banyan tree with offerings available near her.

I saw Dara looking back, she smiled scared looking at me.I smile trying to calm her.Right now I can not do anything for Dara.Now everything depends on Dara, if Dara obeyed what I said right, right, he will not turn into a Devil.But otherwise if he does not obey him he will not turn into a Devil.

Not the more calm looking at the smile Isah, I actually feel more afraid and anxious.If everything does not go according to what I think.Cold memory no longer I feel in my body.

With growing fear, I saw the banyan tree that was getting closer to me. Until I was in the banyan tree, I saw Grandma, Father and Mother, and I came to see,who immediately sat himself on the rocks right facing the offerings.My eyes were still fixated on seeing a very large banyan tree with offerings nearby.

I glanced at Isah as if asking for her approval, she nodded, her mark agreeing for me to sit down.

I sat my ass down, with Isah beside me. I saw Grandma start moving her hands.She was like reading a sentence I don't understand.

I read in my heart, tried to be calm and believed that everything would be fine.

Father and Mother, they were silent, just looking at Grandma with the occasional chiming in Grandma's sentence.I'm getting scared, I'm the lyrics Isah, she looks tense.

Grandma finished chanting a sentence I did not understand, she took a small cup made of clay in the middle of the offerings.

"Better a drink and spend, not until you have a little left !" Grandma's orders thrust the little cup at me.

I was riled up and more and more afraid, when Grandma told me to drink the liquid in that little cup.I saw the contents of that little cup, it was a red liquid like blood.I smelled it, I smelled it,the liquid smelled like blood.

I wanted to talk, say I didn't want to drink the red liquid, but I couldn't make my voice.
