Reveal The Secret's
CHAPTER 2 _ Sharp Stare
Upon opening the book, Sasha was greeted by an image of an owl head with glowing red eyes that looked at Sasha with a sharp gaze. Sasha was completely shocked until her heart skipped a beat.
“Seram once, even though it is only a picture, but why it is like flashing“
This time Sasha took a deep breath before reopening the book.
The awkward feeling mixed with curiosity really he felt at this moment.
“It turns out this owl picture is also“ Sasha said as she fumbled the picture
“What is this drawn with ink?, but why does this bird's eye seem to light up like a lamp“
“Ahhh... weird once“.
Then he went back to the next page.
On the next page Sasha found there was a slightly faded writing, He thought it might be because this book was stored long enough so it was only natural that the writing had faded.
- Many of the puzzles in our lives that we need to solve to uncover a secret, do not be afraid, enter in the puzzle -
Sasha did not understand the meaning of this writing, for a moment He thought about the meaning of the words before He decided to open the next page.
On the next page, Sasha found a writing that made her more confused about the meaning of the writing.
- the black curtain can menghangG mengelukan cahayA, but the light can reveal the Black veil. then be sure, fight the veil hiTam it and includeAn dim light that hilaNg–
“Actually what does this writing mean, I am getting confused“ thought Sasha as she held her head
Sasha repeatedly read the writing, but still she did not understand the meaning.
Sasha was silent for a moment thinking about the writing, He was sure there must be a special meaning of the writing that He read.
Sasha returns to the first page of the book, hoping to get a clue. Then back to page two again, but still not understood by Sasha. He repeatedly did so until his head felt dizzy.
“Aaahhhhh... still do not understand what it means Sasha said while closing the book.
After Sasha was completely confused, she put the book down and went to the kitchen to make a cup of milk.
As Sasha walked towards the kitchen, she was still thinking about the writing.
Sasha sat down at the dinner table, as Sasha took a sip of milk, Sasha felt like there was something strange in the writing of words in the book like there was something strange in the writing, Sasha rushed back to the room and checked.
“It turns out to be true my guess, there are several capital letters in the middle of the sentence. Is there a certain purpose of this way of writing“ thought Sasha while looking at the writing
“Try me to string these letters“ while taking a paper and pencil
“Letters ‘G’ then ‘U’ then ‘A’ ‘H’ ‘U’ then letters ‘T’ ‘A’ and last letters ‘N’. Right, it turns out it does make one sentence“ Sasha smiled
“GUA JUNGLE, does it mean there is a cave in the forest“ Sasha fell silent while staring at the roof
“Let's ask dad, maybe dad knows about this cave“
***
While still thinking about it, there was a mother's voice while knocking on Sasha's bedroom door.
“Sasha, are you awake?“ Ask your mom from outside the room
“It's been bu“ Sasha replied as she closed the book and kept it in her study desk drawer
“Then let's help mom prepare breakfast“ take mom
“Iya ma'am, Sasha tidied up the bed first“ replied sasha as she folded the blanket and composed the messy pillow
After finishing making the bed Sasha went to the kitchen to help the mother who was cooking.
While helping her, Sasha still thinks about the meaning of the book, until Sasha accidentally drops the bottle of drinking water she holds.
“What's Sasha, you're fine“ Ask mom for feeling shocked
“Ti... It's okay ma'am, the water bottle is slippery“ Sasha replied as she picked up the bottle that fell
“oh yes ma'am, Dad where?” sasha asked the mother who was cleaning the water on the floor
“Dad went to see his best friend who teaches at Akibara High School, Dad plans to enroll you to Akibara“ replied mom
“Akibara... from its name, it seems like it is a favorite school here“ Sasha said in her heart.
After cooking, Mom invites Sasha to go visit Mr. Mic's house while looking around their new residence.
The distance of the house is not so far from the grandmother's house, only about 100m.
Along the way Sasha and Mother surrounded by a vast tea garden, beautiful scenery, and green tea garden make the eyes look fresher.
The area where Sasha lives today is surrounded by extensive tea plantations and some people do work on this tea plantation.
While on the way Sasha was attracted to one of the hills overgrown with evergreen trees, Sasha felt she had seen the place, but somehow Sasha did not remember. On the hill Sasha saw a large rock that only the top of it could see. The more he noticed Sasha the more sure he had ever seen the stone.
“Excuse me..“ Mom knocked on Mr. Mic's door
“Wait a minute“ replied the wife of Mr Mic from inside the house
“Wahh... Mrs Linch apparently, come please enter“ invite Miss Mic while opening the door with a smiling face
Mom and Sasha go inside and talk to Mic's mistress in the living room.
“During miss Linch, how are you“ asked Ms Mic
“Our news is fine“ replied mom
“What is this Sasha“ asks Madame Mic while holding Sasha's cheek
“It's big yes, gorgeous“
“ohh yes bi, uncle Mic where, it seems like nothing at home?” Ask Sasha
“Uncle is looking at the garden at the back of the house, if Sasha wants to let aunt inter meet uncle“ with mistress Mic while walking to the back door
“Nahh... it's uncle, if we call from here it must not be heard, Sasha just meet uncle there“ said Mrs Mic while pointing towards the tea garden
“Good bi“ said Sasha
Sasha walked down the path to Mr. Mic.
Sasha walked very carefully because the road was slippery and a little steep.
As Sasha walked towards Mr. Mic, Sasha was again glued to the large rock on the hill, not knowing what made Sasha so interested in the stone, as if to signal Sasha.
“Hai uncle Mic“ shouted Sasha from a distance
“Sasha...“ shouted Mr. Mic as he waved his hand
Mr. Mic rushed over to Sasha
“Who is Sasha here with?” Ask Mr. Mic
“With uncle“'s mother replied Sasha
“Oh yes uncle, the big rock on the hill is what stone?” sasha asked as she pointed towards the big rock on the hill
“ohh... it's a pillar stone, the surrounding community calls it that way, behind the big rock there is a cave that was once used to hide the soldiers while fighting, and there is a cave that was once used to hide the soldiers when they fought, currently it is no longer touched because the road to the cave is already covered with grass“ explained Mr. Mic
For a moment Sasha fell silent and thought about what the cave meant in the book that Sasha read.
They return to Mr. Mic's house, walking, Mr. Mic recounts the events of the war where they lived.
Before becoming a tea garden, their residence was still in the form of a forest that often became a hiding place for soldiers.
When Mr. Mic and Sasha arrived at Mic's house, they continued talking.
Mr. Mic tells Sasha the close relationship of their family that has been established for a long time.
***
It didn't feel like the day was starting late in the evening, Sasha and Mom were saying goodbye because they were worried that Sasha's father had arrived home.
“It seems like we have been chatting for quite a while, maybe next time we connect again” said mother with a smile
“Why hurry once, even though I have not told much about Sasha” said Mr. Mic
“Let's continue again uncle Mic, it seems like my mother and I have to go home” said Sasha
They also say goodbye to returning home.
***
When I got home, my dad came home.
“Wahh... Where are you from?“ Ask Sasha and Mom
“From uncle Mic's house yah“ replied Sasha
Mom prepares drinking water for dad, and Sasha goes back to her room.
Sasha sat down to think about the cave on the hill.
Sasha thought about whether the cave in question was indeed there.
Sasha was curious and decided to go to that cave. Sasha prepared supplies such as flashlights, sweaters and drinking water and did not forget Sasha brought the book that Sasha read. When Sasha wanted to say goodbye, father and mother fell asleep in the living room with the TV on, Sasha turned off the TV and went to the cave.
If from Sasha's house the cave is not too far away, but the road he will take looks not easy to pass.
At 16:30, Shasha went to the cave on the hill.
“Wahh... It's 16:30, I have to hurry before sunset“
Shasha put on her shoes and went to the cave.
When starting the journey Sasha has been welcomed with the road uphill and also grown high grass.
On the way Sasha encountered various events that made Sasha surprised.
Seen by a white owl perched on a tree branch that seemed to observe Sasha's movements, Sasha ignored him and continued to walk.
“The ghost cloud was like observing me, what is just my feeling ya“ Sasha said in her heart
Sasha felt increasingly strange about the owl. The owl kept following Sasha.
In addition, he also grunted several times like the sound of footsteps.
Sasha paused for a moment out of curiosity at the voice she heard.
Sasha took down the backpack she was carrying and opened the snack,
“Maybe the bird wants to eat this snack“ while sprinkling the snack
The owl came down from the tree branch and ate the snack that Sasha had brought.
“It turns out he wants to eat, it looks like this bird is hungry“
As the owl ate the snack Sasha had brought, Sasha continued on her way to the cave.
By 17:00, Sasha was getting closer to the cave, the boulder that Sasha saw in front of Shasha.
“It turns out this stone is indeed very large, but where the cave, should have been seen“ thought Sasha while looking around
Sasha circled the big new one until she finally found a cave covered by tall grass.
“This is the cave, it turns out pretty big“
Sasha picked up the flashlight in her backpack and began to enter the cave.
“Dark once this cave. Then the words in the book mean what, finding a dim light. I'm confused by that phrase“
While thinking Sasha continued to enter the cave, Sasha highlighted the surroundings of the cave with the flashlight Sasha was holding, Sasha only saw the neatly arranged pile of stones inside the cave, which she had seen, occasionally Sasha took the rocks around Sasha and put them back.
As Sasha was highlighting one of the stone piles, Sasha noticed that something was sparkling after being hit by the flashlight. Sasha approached the thing.
“It looks like there's something on top of that pile of rocks“ Sasha walked closer to the pile of rocks that Sasha saw
“What's this“ Sasha took the thing
“Like ruby“ stone
It turned out to be a red ruby with a random shape. Sasha put the ruby on the flashlight that Sasha was holding. As Sasha puts the ruby on the flashlight, Sasha is shocked by what she sees. The ruby emitted a reflection of light that spread around the cave.
“Wahh... Lovely“ Sasha was amazed by the reflection of the light he saw
“But there seems to be something strange about this reflection of light“ Sasha said inwardly as she thought of something
Sasha turned the position of the ruby she was holding slowly.
And it turns out to be true. From the reflection of the light, Sasha saw some patterns that formed the image.
“Wahh... Turns out to be true, it seems like I saw the pattern that formed the image“ while continuing to twist the new ruby
“It's already seen the pattern. Looks like this is a picture book“
“That is like a mirror, the shape is similar to the one in my room“ while pointing towards the picture
“If that one...that's what image yes... like bird“ thought Sasha while observing the picture.
“Iya, I'm sure it's a bird, like an owl“
Then Sasha turned to the right.
“It looks like this is the last“ Sasha saw one more picture
“This is like a key, is this the key that father gave me“
“It seems not, it's like another“ key
Shasha put the ruby in her backpack and looked at the watch that Shasha was wearing.
“Jeez, it's 18:30. Father and Mother must be looking for me, I must hurry to go home“ Sasha said as she looked at the watch she was wearing
Sasha walked in haste as if ignoring what was around her.
When he arrived home at 19:10, it felt faster than when Sasha left, probably because Sasha was walking in a hurry.
After Sasha went into the house it turns out that father and mother are still sound asleep on the living room sofa.
“It turns out they haven't woken“ Sasha said inwardly while putting the shoes on
Sasha did not wake Mom and Dad for fear of interrupting their break.
Sasha went to the kitchen to wash her hands then headed to her room.
“Light was beautiful, what is meant by dim light is the reflection of light from this stone“
“But what the reflection of the light means, I still do not understand“ Sasha thought while looking at the ruby that Sasha held
“Ahh... Looks like I have to open the next page“
