SPIRIT CHILD

4. FALL ILL

After arriving at the apartment straight away I lay my body on the mattress without turning on the Ac because my body needs to be warmed by a blanket. When I pulled the blanket and tried to close my eyes suddenly, the image of the woman in the elevator appeared from behind my eyes. I opened my eyes and hid under the blanket. I was so scared that he came here.

My body is getting hotter and my head is getting sick plus all the bones in my body are crumbling and painful. I could do nothing but cry and pray.

My mouth kept chanting incessantly wishing for my mind to calm down, but because my heart was still in chaos finally the prayer was useless.

Even so I keep trying more and more often to say prayers until finally I can adjust the calmness of heart that has been troubled since the trauma that still impregnates.

In a few moments my mind slowly began to calm down and unconsciously I fell asleep

I finally woke up when the sky was dark.

I turned to the wall clock that showed seven o'clock at night. But my head was still a bit dizzy even though it was not as painful as last afternoon but grateful that my body temperature had returned to normal, even so I still lay down my body because it was still weak if the leg bones felt linu if forced to move.

At the same time the phone that had been beside me suddenly rang so loud that it made me shocked.

When I got the call from Tina. I got the phone call quickly.

With a still hoarse voice and a weak tone I answered him

"Yes Tin" I replied

Apparently Tina instantly recognized my different voice, she understood that I was in an unusual condition.

"You sound so hoarse, cough again huh ?" tannya

"No" I answered briefly

But Tina didn't want to talk about it anymore, she spoke straight to the point of contacting me

"Walk yuk !" bring him sertamerta

But I refused it

"Here you go, the cave is not feeling well anymore" I replied

Tina was a little disappointed to hear "Yeah, play here. Lots of handsome guys here" he persuaded.

But I still refused it

"Don't Tin the head of the cave again hurts. I think they need a lot of rest" I said

Finally Tina relented "Ooh, what's the pain ?" tannya

"The whole story" I answered

Hearing him Tina was confused "Why can the length of the story ?" tannya

"The cave can't tell now, maybe later if the cave is ready. Now the cave just wants to rest first" I said

"Ooh, if that's it. Have you taken your medicine yet ?" tannya

"not yet. From the afternoon of the cave, I did not take medicine" I replied

"Well, how can it heal. If so anterin cave to the doctor. Wait for the cave" he said

Hearing him I was relieved "Yes Tin. Cave wait yes" I said

"Okay, I'll see you later" he closed

"Yes Tin, be careful" I said

Half an hour waiting for Tina finally arrived at the eighteenth floor apartment where I lived alone.

After I let her in, Tina sat next to me on the couch. In front of him was a snack I had prepared for him.

For the sake of his arrival I was willing to move my body even though my bones were painful

"Take it Tin. This is a ready cave for you" my sodor presents his favorite leather crackers setoples

Tina quickly picked it up and ate it until a crunchy sound was heard in her mouth

"When do you buy it, Nis ?" ask while chewing

"It was deliberately cave stock. Make a snack" I replied

"Oh that. So what time do we go to the doctor ?" the question was so quick to change the topic

"It's okay now" I said

Hearing her, Tina immediately rushed to pick up her bag and stood up

"Yes we have to leave now" he asked as he stepped slowly towards the door

Finally Tina and I left together in her car.

"Replace the song Tin, the head of the cave is getting sicker hearing the music so pause jedug" said I

Tina who did not mind finally changed to a song into melow music

"What is this ?" ask him to me

"It's okay" I agreed

At the same time, while driving carefully, Tina began to ask me again about what happened to me

"Actually you're sick what the hell ?"tannya

I glanced at him and then breathed a sign that I wasn't ready for the story. But I think I need to tell him so I don't hold on alone

"Gua saw a ghost in the elevator" I said slowly

Tina turned to me for a while and then refocused on driving "Times anyway ?" he said while grinning in disbelief

"Yes, you can't believe it" I said

Tina smiled "Maybe you're tired of being embarrassed" he said

Hearing him I just quietly leaned back

Apparently this is what it feels like to testify about mystical things even though the facts but who heard do not believe at all

The street lights of the capital city of Jakarta are so beautiful to decorate a gray night, but the atmosphere of the bustling city becomes different for me.

On the way, I started shivering cold once in a while when I was wearing warm clothes and apparently Tina realized it

While driving he occasionally turned to look at me who was sitting restlessly beside him

"Lu's cold, huh ?" tannya

"Yes" I said while holding back the cold by folding both hands in the chest

"Before soon, endure it" he said, raising my heart

I just nodded while enjoying the melow song that kept spinning

It wasn't until half an hour that we finally arrived at Tina's friend's Clinic. It just so happened that Tina had a doctor's acquaintance.

Tina and I went downstairs and met a friend when they were together at their college boarding house. Laura. Her name. I once met him in a cafe when invited to eat with Tina but until now I still have not been familiar with him

Arriving in her friend's room, Laura immediately greeted us as if she already knew our arrival

"Hi, Tina !" greet her while throwing her smile at me as well "Hi, Nissa"

"Hi, Laura. We haven't hung out in a few weeks" he said

While I only returned a smile because I did not have the energy to reply to greet. Not yet asked to sit by Laura but I prefer to sit first because my leg bones seem unable to support my body.

Laura who saw my condition that was more concerning finally took the initiative to directly examine my body with a stethoscope and then check in other ways.

After being examined in many ways finally the results he found. While I listen to it still shiver occasionally

"You just have a fever. Because of fatigue" he said

Tina immediately snatched "That's really what the cave said, you're exhausted. So don't be weird if your pain is because you see a demon" he said

Laura who heard the end of Tina's sentence became curious "See the devil ?" tanyanya wonder

"Yes he told me to see the devil in his office elevator" he said

Laura looked at me "When ?" tannya

I replied in a slow tone

"So noon. Long story" I said

Laura nodded softly "Maybe you are tired of being hallucinated. Let me give you a prescription for the medicine" he said

Hearing Laura's reply, Tina smiled and then turned to look at me as if she felt that she wasn't the only one who didn't believe me.

Tina finally drove me home to my room. He also helped me prepare the medicine that I had to take. He even fed me

At eleven o'clock in the evening Tina finally went home after feeling my health had started to improve

"Gua go home first yes, Nis" he said.

"Thank you very much" I said

"Yes both Nis" he replied as he walked away
