Reveal The Secret's
CHAPTER 1 _ The Underground Room



At that time a girl named Sasha and her family had just been in a village that was not too far from the city. Sasha and her family's goal is to occupy the old house of her father's family.


On Sunday at exactly 16:00, Father, Mother and Sasha arrived at Grandma's house. A bright afternoon seemed to welcome their arrival in the house, the cool air, beautiful scenery, shady trees, as well as a vast expanse of tea gardens added to the calm atmosphere at that time.


“Dad... Mother..what is this Granny” house Tanya Sasha while looking around the house that looks still beautiful and cool.


“That's so beautiful, it looks like I will be at home here” said Sasha as she walked closer to the gate of the house that is only as high as an adult's chest


Sasha's father was Braum Linch and his mother was Risya Linch. Sasha is the only child of the Linch family.


“Let's go inside, Dad is very tired” said Sasha's father while lifting his suitcase


When starting to open the gate they seemed to be greeted with birds chirping as if singing which made the atmosphere more comfortable.


When entering the house, they are greeted with a very messy home. Old cupboards with lots of cobwebs, messy chairs, floors with lots of dust, and a white cloth of shabby window coverings. Naturally, this house has not been inhabited for 10 years since Grandma Sasha died of illness.


“It looks like we will work hard before sleeping soundly “ joke Mom while smiling widely


“ ha... ha.. ha...“ they laughed


They put their luggage in the living room.


At that time there were only a few items that they brought, only limited to clothing and personal equipment because the facilities in the house of Sasha's grandmother could still be used and still fairly feasible to use.


The condition of this house is indeed dirty, but there is actually someone who is in charge of caring for this house.


Moments after they started tidying up the house, there was the sound of a motorbike stopping in front of the house.


“Excuse me... Is there anyone inside?“ a male voice came from the front door of the house


Sasha's father seemed to know the voice of the man and he walked towards the main door.


“Mic...“ shouted dad while raising his right hand that was holding a feather duster


“Braum“ said Mr. Mic who also raised his hand


Mr. Mic is Sasha's father's little friend. He lives not far from Grandma Sasha's house.


Since childhood Mr. Mic often accompanied Sasha's father to play, besides that they also attended school in the same place.


“For a long time, how are you Braum? you look old now“ joked Mr. Mic with a laugh.


“You also look old Mic“ replied the father with a laugh


“My news is good, how about you? “ said dad while cleaning the chair for them to sit down


They also chatted with laughter discussing when they were little, when they were still living close together and playing together.


“ Introduce Mic, this is my wife and my son“ said the father while pointing at mother and also sasha


“Happy to meet you Mr. Mic“ said mother greet Mr. Mic


“Is this Sasha? you look so much like your father“ asked Mr. Mic while holding onto both of Sasha's shoulders


When Sasha was born, my father called Grandma who happened to be unable to attend on Sasha's birthday. It happened that Mr. Mic was at Grandma's house and had a chat with Sasha's father. Therefore Mr. Mic knows about Sasha.


On the sidelines of the conversation Mr. Mic gave something that He had always held and He took it wherever He went.


“ohh yes.this is home key and top room key. All this time I have always controlled this house, I used to clean the courtyard and the upper room of this house, but it has not been since I fell ill 5 years ago. I only had time to clean the upper room, it was also occasionally “ said Mr. Mic while giving the house keys to Sasha's father


“Thanks Mic“ Father also received the key


Mr. Mic's family is a confidant of the Linch family. No wonder Mr. Mic can hold the key to the Linch family home.


“Alright, then have a good rest. If you need anything do not hesitate to call me“ said Mr. Mic while taking the helmet on the table


“Thank you for the visit Mic, if you have finished tidying up our house will visit your house, again thank you for taking care of this house“ said the father while bowing his head in respect


“Do not hesitate, this is already an agreement in our family kan“ said Mr. Mic with a smile


“Then excuse me, there is still unfinished work at home“ said Mr Mic


After Mr. Mic left, they continued to clean the house.


While mom and dad were cleaning the room, Sasha decided to go around the house.


A fairly spacious house with unique architecture makes Sasha amazed.


Sasha continued walking while looking at the house ornaments that he had never seen before.


Sasha stopped at the door of a room.


“Wah... What room is this, so messy“ said Sasha after opening the door


Without a doubt Sasha continued to go deeper.


“Waaahhhh... so many paintings here“.


Looking around, Sasha sat on one of the wooden chairs, exhausted.


While daydreaming Sasha looked at every object in the warehouse. He was astonished because the items he had never seen before. Like the closet that has owl ornaments that look dull due to dust, there is also an old piano that is overcame by several paintings.


In addition to the stacked paintings, there are still many paintings hanging on the wall. No wonder because according to his father's story, Sasha's grandmother likes to paint and he also likes to write.


Sasha is drawn to one of the owls that are biting a key.


“It's great this painting“ said Sasha as she grabbed the painting


“ Wahhh... This painting is like a living, this bird's eyes as if actually looking at me “


Sasha kept looking at the painting.


When Sasha tried to clean up the dust in the painting, she accidentally fell to the floor.


Dugs...


“Aduh“ said Sasha reflex because the painting fell


Sasha found it strange when the painting fell on a floor covered with carpet, the sound of another fall, like falling on a plank floor while the floor of the house was all ceramic.


Sasha knocked on the floor listening to the sound.


“It does not sound like falling in keramik“


“It looks like there is a room behind this floor“ thought Sasha as she knocked on the floor and hugged the painting that fell earlier


“Sasha...“ from a distance heard the voice of mother calling Sasha


“Iya bu...“ Sasha replied in a loud voice and immediately rushed to leave the warehouse


“Let's just check“ Sasha said inwardly


While walking Sasha looked at the dusty painting and was still thinking whether behind the floor there was indeed a room.


***


“Sasha, help mom move this big mirror, mom can't lift it herself“ mother's pinta while holding the mirror


Shasha put the painting she was holding and immediately helped her mother move the large mirror with the beautiful carving.


While lifting the mirror Sasha was glued to the top of the mirror because there was a sculpture of an owl flapping its wings like it wanted to fly. Sasha was astonished by the ornaments in her Grandmother's house, many related to owls either by chance or indeed Sasha's grandmother liked owls. Sasha does not express her feelings to her mother, because according to Sasha it is not too important to tell.


***


Not feeling the sky was getting dark, Sasha and her parents decided to quit their jobs.


Sasha and mom prepare dinner for them, while dad tidies the dinner table.


After eating dinner Sasha and her family went to the terrace upstairs to chat while enjoying the cool night air.


“Enjoy the atmosphere of the night here“ said Sasha as she gazed at the star-studded sky


“When I was a kid, dad also almost every night went to the terrace to look at the sky, nothing changed turned out, it turned out, still the same as in the past“ story father to Sasha while staring at the sky and enjoy a cup of coffee


Long enough they talked until the night was getting late, they tidied up the leftovers and returned to the room.


While in the room, Sasha daydreamed while looking at the painting that Sasha found in the warehouse this afternoon. Sasha opens her backpack and searches for the key her father gave her when Sasha was a child.


The key that is currently in Sasha is a gift from Grandma Sasha. When Sasha was one year old, her grandmother visited Sasha's house in the city and gave a key that was entrusted to Sasha's father who then gave it to Sasha when Sasha was seven years old on his birthday.


“Yet, it turns out that my guess is true, the key in the painting is very similar to the one I have“, Sasha said while holding the key tied to the thread


Sasha put her painting on her study table and poked her key to her neck.


“I'm curious about the floor in the warehouse, it looks like there's something in it“ Sasha said in her heart


Shasha looked at the watch she was wearing, it was already 12pm and the cold air started to feel. Armed with a cell phone flashlight, Sasha decided to go to the warehouse again.


***


“This is the floor that was“ while tapping the floor


Slowly and hesitantly, Sasha opened the carpet covering the floor. And it turns out to be true, Sasha finds a hole covered by a board. Shasha opened the board and tried to put her hand into the hole, and Sasha found a metal hook in the hole. Sasha pulled him and the floor opened.


“Hahhh..


“It looks like this secret room“ thought Sasha while highlighting a room that had just opened


Sasha pointed her flashlight down and saw a ladder heading somewhere.


Sasha ventured to enter the room.


Slowly he lowered his legs one by one. Feelings of fear and curiosity emerged simultaneously making Sasha's heart beat fast.


“Dark once here, the dust is also a lot, how long has this place not been in open“ muttered Sasha while continuing to walk in the hallway of the room


Along the hallway Sasha only saw a neatly arranged arrangement of red bricks along the passageway.


This hallway was not so wide, only measuring one meter and its height was only about one and a half meters. Sasha walked with her head down until she finally arrived at the end of the hall.


“It's up the aisle“


When he arrived at the end of the hall Sasha found a room that was also not too wide.


“Waaawww... Why can there be a room like this in the basement“ said Sasha as she looked around the room


In the room there are only a few bookshelves, tables and also one chair.


At that time Sasha was interested in one closet that was closed.


“The other one is open, why only this closet has a door“ Sasha also tried to open it


Slowly he opened the closet door.


Kreeekk…


While opening the closet, Sasha found a small chest with owl ornaments at the top of the small chest.


“Peti what is this?”


“Locked“ Sasha said in her heart when she wanted to open the chest


“About what is the contents of this crate, it feels light, or maybe this crate is empty“


As Sasha lifted the crate suddenly heard the sound of a heavy object falling right beside Sasha.


Dugs…


“Aaaaaa...what sound isuuu.


Sasha was surprised and rushed out of the room with the chest Sasha found in the closet.


Upon arriving at the top, Sasha immediately closed the door of the basement room in a hurry and immediately ran towards the room.


“Aahhh..


“Actually what is the contents of this crate, again the pattern of owls“


“There's a keyhole“ thinks Sasha while adjusting her breath that is still lenga-enga


“Seeing from the shape, this keyhole fits the key I have“


Sasha picked up the key hanging from her neck.


“Hahhh.. open“.


Shasha was surprised, it turned out that the key that had been used as a locket by Sasha could open a small chest in the basement of her grandmother's house.


Sasha opened the chest, and inside it was a book that read History Of Linch Family.


As Sasha holds the book, Sasha's body becomes limp and Sasha falls asleep hugging it.


In his sleep Sasha had a strange dream, all the events in the dream were happening very quickly, Sasha did not understand what the dream meant. In Sasha's dream, Sasha heard a voice saying “Don't be afraid to try”. Those are the only words Sasha can remember.


***


It was early in the morning, Sasha woke up from her sleep, daydreaming Sasha was thinking about the purpose of her dream last night.


“Sweet once my dream last night, all the events move very fast, I do not understand what is happening in my dream that“ daydreaming Sasha while looking at the book that Sasha holds.


“What my dream last night had to do with this book, it looks like I have to open it“


Sasha opened the book slowly.


But when he opened the first page Sasha was very surprised, and immediately closed the book again.


“Hahhh... what I saw just now, creepy once“.
