In the classroom home from school…

All the students have gone home, except Dita and Shilla. Before going home they were asked to paste the work of the students in the mading. Then it rained so they both waited for the rain to stop. While waiting for the rain, the two of them sat in class.

“Lo evil yes! So mean cave!” Said Dita.

“Emang cave wrong what the hell?” Shilla.

“Udah, don't be hypocritical! the cave has never said that the cave likes Ricky! But why are you the same Ricky?” Ask Dita.

“But honestly, the cave doesn't like Ricky. But Ricky shot the cave!” Shilla.

“Iya gua tau! Don't you like Ricky? But why are you the same Ricky? though you know if the cave is very dear to Ricky! Why do you have to stab the cave from behind? Wh why? this cave is your friend Shilla” said Dita while sobbing.

“But... but..” Haven't had time for Shilla to continue her words, Dita suddenly stabbed Shilla with a knife. Instantly Shilla lay on the floor covered in blood. Then Dita drips blood on the knife into Shilla's diary.

“This is a retaliation from the cave, goodbye Shilla” then Dita leaves Shilla's corpse in class.

5 years later…

“Kids, you are asked to make a poem, the best will be on display in mading” said Mr. Andhika, Indonesian teacher.

“Baiik pak” finally lesson finished. The students immediately went home.

Journey home…

“Aih, cave is not good at making poetry” said Nadine.

“gua is not too” Vianni said.

“gua can-ja” said Marchella.

“Yes, you can pinter. Not kayak cave, make a poem just can not” said Tiara.

Her night…

“Hmm, this time make what poem yes?” Marchella said in her heart.

“Aha!” Suddenly, Marchella found an idea.

Tomorrow…

“Yes, kids. Already done the task you gave yesterday?” Ask Mr. Andhika.

“Already pak”

“Well, now try Marchella forward, read your poem” said Mr. Andhika.

Marchella came forward, while her friends waited anxiously for her turn.

When night comes

I was pensively in the corner of the window

Looking at the night sky

It is full of stars

I try to look back up

It finally looks like the moon

The moon that dwells in the sky

Accompanied by the star

God would have given me wings

Then I'll fly up

Far up and I will reach the stars in the sky.

After Marchella recited her poem, all the students applauded.

“Yes, very nice Marchella! Good job” said Mr. Andhika.

Machella sat back down. Then, Mr. Andhika called the other students to recite a poem.

“Well children, the poem to be displayed in the mading is the property of Marchella, Dhika, Astri, Frans, and Zee” said Mr. Andhika.

Finished schools Marchella, Andi, Chintya, and Dimas still had to stay at school for pickets and display poetry in Mading. While sweeping, Marchella found something under the cupboard.

“Aaan anyway?” Then Marchella took the thing.

“Hah? a diary? who's it got?” Marchella.

“Eh Marchella, why are you squatting there?” Ask Dimas.

“cua nemuin diary” says Marchella.

“Iih, who's got? Don't carelessly take” Chintya said.

“Lo mah superstitious really” Andi said.

“gua take home ah” Marchella said.

“Terden! Yes let us go home” said Dimas.

The four of them will be home soon.

At home, at night…

“This is roughly who's got?” Then Marchella opened the diary.

Property: Ashilla Fiona Michella

Since: march 19, 2006

“Ashilla who the hell?” Marchella.

Marchella was curious, she opened the last page of the diary.

“Haaaahhhh!” Marchella was shocked, there were blood spots in the diary.

Marchella closed the book and put it in the drawer. Then Marchella went to bed.

The night is getting late, but Marchella can't sleep. The room was dark, he immediately turned on the lights. Then Marchella ventured to take the diary.

“Read aah” Marchella said as she opened the book.

Ricky shot me today. I really don't like Ricky. Besides, I know that Dita likes Ricky. Ricky has loved me for a long time. And Ricky has cancer. Ricky said his life might not be long. For pity, I accept it.

“Bodo is very. This is a people diary. But by the way, what is also the cave carrying people's diaries? Aah but no one has. Mending cave bring. The kepo cave. Hahahaha” Marchella laughs to herself.

“Ribet nih carinya” says Marchella.

Then they searched the archives from 2006-2007.

“Tapiii.. This is really hot kayaking on kuta beach?” Ask Marchella.

“Ooo yes! the cave hasn't turned on AC” yet and Marchella immediately turned on the AC.

Then Marchella returned to take out the diary she found yesterday. Marchella accidentally opened the last page.

“PLEASE ME!” A sentence is written on the last page.

“Hah? Whose writing is this? Make goosebumps aja” Marchella said.

Nightfall…

Marchella's going to bed. His eyes feel heavy. As Marchella was staring into the glass, she saw a woman. The woman had long waist-length hair, wore a gray white shirt, and there was a puncture mark on her stomach.

“Haaahhh!!! A ghost!! Ghost!!” Marchella was scared.

Suddenly, Mama Marchella walks into Marchella's room.

“Yeah, how come yelling anyway?” Ask mama.

“Ma, there's a ghost ma! There's ghosts!” Marchella.

“Ghost? Aah time anyway?” Mama said

“Bener mah!” Marchella.

“Udah ah! That's why we sleep praying! Don't think weird. Met bobo” says mom.

“Iya ma, met bobo” then Marchella immediately covered herself with a blanket.

“Similar to Ashilla's photo in the archive book yesterday” Marchella said.

“Terus?” Ask Nadine.

“On the very back page there is a writing help me. Don't-don't Ashilla ask for help” said Nadine.

“gua is also confused” said Nadine.

“Continue now where are we going?” Ask Marchella.

“Ke Parung, Bogor” says Nadine.

“Ngapain?” Ask Marchella.

“We want to go to Ashilla's house, on walnut” road Nadine said.

Then Nadine handed over the paper containing the address she saw in the archive book to Marchella.

At Ashilla's house…

“Excuse me..” Nadine said as she knocked on the door.

“No one huh?” Ask Marchella.

Then from across the house came an old mother.

“Whose days are you looking for?” Ask the mother

“Nyari who lives in this house” Marchella said.

“His occupants moved 3 years ago. If not wrong to go to Semarang. Listen, the child who lives here was killed” said the mother.

“Still ya bu” said Nadine.

They got into the car to continue their journey.

In car…

“Home Bita where?” Ask Marchella.

“Kan is there neng, on the road Cemara number 34 said Nadine.

“Oo yes, cave don't see the paper” Marchella said while grinning.

“Uuu! Semprul!” Nadine.

Before long, they reached Dita's house.

At Dita's house…

“Excuse me..” Nadi knocked on the turnstile.

“Iyaa...” Then a woman opened the door.

“There is no bu?” Ask Marchella.

The mother just fell silent, and cried.

“Mother why?” Ask Nadine.

“Come, follow mom into” then Nadine and Marchella into the house.

“What are you guys here for?” Ask the mother.

“We want to investigate the murder incident 5 years ago in our school” Marchella said.

“You must be from SMA jasmine Parung right?” Ask the mother.

“Iya ma'am. My name is Nadine, this is my friend Marchella” Nadine said.

“Oo, this mother is Dita” said the mother.

Nadine and Marchella recount the murder.

“Once the story” Marchella said.

shortly after, the mother cried.

“Why Bu?” Ask Nadine.

“That time, back from school in her uniform there was a blood patch. Then Dita cried all day in the room. Keep asking why. Dita says she feels guilty about Ashilla. Dita said that Dita had killed Ashilla”, said the mother.

“Terus, how does it go?” Ask Marchella.

“The next day, Ashilla's body was found. We went to Ashilla's funeral. Since then, Dita has been a poor boy. Haunted by guilt. And now, Dita got a mental illness” said the mother while crying.

“Hah?” Marchella and Nadine are shocked.

“then, Where is it?” Ask Nadine.

“Now Charged in RSJ. If you want to meet, let's all deliver mother” said the mother.

Then they headed to RSJ.

Of RSJ…

“Dita is in jasmine room. You guys just go in” said the mother.

“Mother won't sign in?” Ask Marchella.

“Mother is not strong see the condition of Dita” said the Mother.

Slowly Nadine and Marchella stepped into Melati's room. In the corner of the room was Dita who was crying.

“Dita..” Call Nadine.

“What's up?” Ask Dita.

“True, you killed Ashilla?” Ask Marchella.

“Iya... Want what to ask?!” Said Dita while angry.

Then, Nadine gave Ashilla's diary to Dita.

“I used to kill Ashilla because she was with Ricky, who I like. I'm jealous of Ashilla and Ricky. Then, since the murder I regretted killing my best friend” said Dita.

Nadine and Marchella listen to Dita.

“If only, I didn't kill him. Now I have no chance to apologize” Dita said in tears.

“There is still time to apologize. Let's go to Ashilla”'s tomb Nadine said.

then with the supervision of nurses, Nadine, Marchella, Ibu Dita, and Dita went to TPU parung.

The TPU parung…

“This is Ashilla” grave said Nadine.

“Ashilla, sorryin cave. The cave used to kill lo. cave nyesel. Maafin cave is haunted by guilt since the cave killed you 5 years ago. Maafin gua” said Dita.

Suddenly, from a distance Ashilla smiled at Dita. Dita also smiled.

Then they go home.

A week later…

Marchella and Nadine were sitting together in class. They are busy chatting. Suddenly, they saw someone sitting on the very front bench.

“Who is it?” Ask Nadine.

That person turned around, apparently that person was Ashilla!
