not so like a crazy person because often chat with the creature,” Gilby laughed at the words of his grandmother last. His grandmother smiled, seeing his grandson laughing.
“you too are like that now? grandma used to be angry and embarrassed to see your grandfather talk often
alone, he did not talk alone but with the creature, but still for others he seemed to talk alone? Your grandfather thought of the creature as his best friend” said grandma again.
“gilby is not like a grandparent, indeed the creature helps a lot gilby, but we rarely talk grandma.We talk only for something very important, even if I want to talk to the creature, if I want to talk to the creature, now this is not a problem grandma.kan can be covered by pretending to be calling, so it will not be embarrassing let alone said crazy grandma.. I have two friends who never run out of material to talk. So about the creature grandma do not have to worry.” said gilby smiled at his grandmother and then look at the creature, the strange creature was watching around them. Then he remembered something.
“which I don't like is about this chick grandma.” gilby took her phone and showed her face sandra to her grandmother.
“granny knows? He said brother far gilby?” ask gilby again
“iya he is indeed the grandson of your grandfather's cousin, did he harm you? Your grandfather's cousin is greedy
and very ambitious, first after the death of your grandfather he tried several times to harm your papa, so grandma sent your father to school abroad, so when your father accident grandma thought it was them, they, that's why Grandma asked your mother to take you away and not tell you your identity, so they managed to track you down too? But they didn't manage to harm me?” grandma asked a little scared.
“no granny. kan gilby now has a guard..”
“grandmother is actually a dilemma, the creature is actually good for looking after the grandmother family, but grandma also hates the creature because it makes your grandfather look crazy and also sometimes brings your grandfather disappeared in the forest for months, grandma does not like the agreement and wants the agreement to break.so your father since childhood grandmother forbid the forest even though your grandfather did not like it but he could not do anything, he said,
and eventually your grandfather died from frequent thirst, eating irregularly caused him to get sick with stomach acid and die. And when your grandfather died your greedy, ambitious grandfather's family went after your father and wanted to harm him. Forgive grandma ” says granny sad.

“do you see those hills there? There is stored treasure of the agreement?” grandma gilby said later. Gilby
bemused
“bukit that is nek, it looks like the hill is close and easily accessible, why they can not find the treasure” asked gilby wonder
“because of the agreement the creatures hid the treasure, only the seventh heir who
could open the treasure.so before the heir came and opened the treasure the common man would never be able to see let alone take it.” Grandma said again, Gilby looked towards the creature.
“hihihi boss is not yet the time to go to that place. I can not bring the boss there.” said the creature, he saw curiosity in the eyes of gilby.
“nek.. Can grandma take me to that hill?” ask Gilby about her grandmother. The creature laughed loudly at Gilby's request to his grandmother.
