SUKMA: The Deal With the Devil

Sukma Search

"Oh, so now you dare to be with me? Remember, I am your employer! Once you mess around, I will not hesitate to fire you and your husband from this house. Let's just let you be a vagabond again out there, I have nothing to lose" Farah's cerocos glared at Bu Inah.

The middle-aged woman was immediately bowed in lethargy when she was reminded of her position by Farah. He couldn't do much, as long as he needed money to get through to the Hilman family. He sat back on the porch and rubbed his face.

Farah smiled at the left corner of her lips. He took the phone out of his pants pocket and called Hilman. While walking back to the main house, he told Hilman to go home immediately. Meanwhile, Atikah, still upset by Farah's treatment of her mother, tries to get close to her. However, his steps were immediately held back by Bu Inah's grasp.

"Already, Atikah. There's no point in you snubbing Bu Farah," Bu Inah persuaded, pulling his daughter's hand.

"But, Mum. Aunty Farah is so bad! As if doing Dek Sukma a vagrant child, continue to consider the search for my sister is more. Try if A Albi is missing, he must be panicking like us, too" Atikah grumbled with a bent face.

"Keep, what are you doing Miss Farah? Angry again? Do you want me to lose my job with Mom?"

Atikah looked at the sad face of Bu Inah. "I don't want you to lose your job, but .. ah, I don't like to be loved by Aunt Farah. I need to get out of here. I want you to be rich Mom, let's not be insulted continue with Aunt Farah."

With reverence, Ms. Inah invited Atikah to sit with her on the porch. She wore her daughter's hair, while developing a bitter smile on her lips. His shady eyes looked at his eldest daughter.

"Look, Atikah. You need to be patient for that. Father and Mother are also both trying to raise money to be able to work elsewhere, also keep financing your education and Sukma Deck. It is not as easy as turning the palm, but at least with prayer and effort, insya Allaj everything will change. God never sleeps, God will hear all our prayers."

Atikah heard his mother's explanation. He digested it word by word that came out of his mother's mouth. It is only necessary to be patient and patient with the insults Farah throws at him. The nine-year-old girl let out a deep sigh, then leaned her head on the mother's shoulder.

"Now, we should pray for Sukma Deck to go home quickly. You love Dek Sukma, don't you?"

"Yes, Mom. I love you so much, Dedek. Actually I also do not like diem-dieman continue the same Sukma Deck, but because of the doll, we so often fight."

"If you had realized from the beginning that the doll was bringing bad things to Sukma Deck, you might have thrown it away."

"I just wish Susan and Maurin's doll never came into our lives. Because of them, the Sukma Deck became far from us and now .. ah, I don't know where Dedek is."

In the middle of their conversation, Mr. Risman and the driver and security guard of Hilman's house, emerged from behind the gate. Ms. Inah and Atikah rushed to the front yard of Hilman's house, approaching them. Looking for the figure of the little girl among the three men, there was nothing at all.

Ms. Inah looked at Mr. Risman questioningly. Her eyes were glazed over, her hands trembling with the hand of her husband. In his heart he hoped, the three men found a bright spot for the existence of Sukma.

"Sir, where's Dedek? Already found?"

Mr. Risman shook his head in a doldrums.

"So, Dedek's not in this package?" tanya Atikah was worried.

"We've been looking for it in every house, no one has seen Sukma" explained the driver in a clear tone.

Hearing the security guard's explanation, Bu Inah became furious. For him, it is impossible if Sukma hates his own family, let alone go without saying goodbye. The middle-aged woman glared at the security guard while pointing at him.

"Heh, Sir. Keep the Father's word! My daughter won't leave home because she hates her own family!" hardik Bu Inah's.

"But what I heard is so, ma'am," said the security guard in self-defense.

"Easy, Mom. Now is not the time to get angry," persuaded Mr. Risman to pull Bu Inah's body away from the security guard. "We should go home and rest first. Tomorrow we find Dedek again, yeah."

"How can I rest tonight if Dedek hasn't been found? Mother's heart is still not calm," said Bu Inah in a lethargic tone.

"Rest first, ma'am, let there be energy to find Dedek. Tomorrow we look again together," said Mr. Risman staring at the eyes of Bu Inah who was careless. Next, he turned to the two men who had helped him look for Sukma. "Yes, thank you, gentlemen. Sorry, I've been bothering you guys looking for Sukma."

"Ah, it's okay, Mr. Risman. Instead I felt moved to look for Sukma Deck," said the driver, commenting on a slight smile on his lips.

Before Mr. Risman and his son and wife sauntered into the pavilion, Hilman's car came into the courtyard of the house. Mr. Risman and Ms. Inah paused for a moment, looking at Hilman out of his car. The man seemed to be in a hurry to meet with Mr. Risman.

"Sir, Mom, has Sukma met?" ask Hilman.

Mr. Risman shook his head weakly. "No, Sir. My colleagues and I have searched the entire complex, but not yet found."

Hilman let out a long sigh, then looked into Mr. Risman's eyes fixedly. "Sir, I had a clue about the whereabouts of Sukma from a roadside trader."

Mr. Risman and Ms. Inah were stunned to hear Hilman's words. A glimmer of hope apparently came with the arrival of the master. Can't wait, Ms. Inah walked over to Hilman.

"Say, Sir. Where is Sukma Deck? Is she okay?" ask Mom Inah restlessly.

"For that, I don't know for sure. But I had met a roadside trader, he happened to see the big son of Sukma magrib-magrib. The boy came to the kindergarten across the street. He sat for quite a while crying."

"Then, Sukma Dek is in his school dong," said Mr. Risman concluded.

"Come, Sir. After he sat long enough in front of the Kindergarten school, he talked alone and continued to go towards the cemetery" explained Hilman.

"The grave?!" Madam Inah scrunched her forehead. "How does the story tell Sukma Deck can go towards the grave? He was so scared to go there. Every morning I take her to school, she hides and shudder."

"I don't know either, Mom. At first I was also difficult to believe, but who said so was not only the trader, one of the buyers also," said Hilman.

Mr. Risman and Ms. Inah looked at each other. Atikah smothered her mouth with both hands, as if she could not believe something her sister had done. According to him, it was impossible if his sister went to the cemetery, especially when dusk arrived.
