SUKMA: The Deal With the Devil

Picking Up the Ajal

Fadil. After hearing the news that the girl he wanted had been proposed to by another man, his heart became crumbling dimly. He decided to get in touch with women again. His unfortunate fate in terms of a soul mate, made him decide to be single for life.

"What's? You want to be single for life? Ah, you're making Mr. sprain. If you do not have children, who will continue the business of pecel lele and rented Father? You're the only boy" Haji Gufron's cerocos muntab.

"Nobody wants to be with me, sir. Am I ugly, so no one wants to be taken seriously?"

"You're not ugly, Dil. Just don't have a job yet. Every woman has a principle of wanting to get a serious man and have a regular job."

"But I'm serious, too, sir. Just a job that doesn't have."

"Well, that. Work is no less important. The fitting period is asked the cooperation of in-laws the answer is 'just lying aja maen online game'? It doesn't make sense. Also, if you have a daughter, you will not accept you as a daughter-in-law, Dil."

"Didih, that's your father! Even if I don't have a job, I can do it later, sir. Now also try to find job vacancies. Doain just so I can work like a lot of people."

"Yes, deh. About the soul mate, you also do not despair. Maybe your soul mate wasn't born yet."

In the middle of their conversation, there was the sound of knocking on the door from the outside, followed by the sound of small children shouting 'assalamualaikum' loudly. Haji Gufron hurried to open the door, then smiled widely to find the sweet children visiting his house. Sukma and Fani are relieved, the homeowner welcomes them kindly.

"Sir Haji, Aa Fadil is there?" ask Sukma.

"There was. Just a minute, yeah."

Haji Gufron then looked back, calling out to Fadil. The young man was still pensively propping up his chin in the living room. Meanwhile, Sukma and Fani worry in case the person he chooses to drive to Ki Purnomo's house, rejects their request.

"Fadiii! Here are two more girls looking for you!" call Haji Gufron raise his tone.

Hearing his father's call about women, Fadil was stunned. Hurry up he got up from the chair, then ran over to the origin of the sound. In his mind, he imagined the two beautiful girls of his dreams coming home. However, upon arrival at the doorstop, his hope soon broke when he found two little girls welcoming him with a sigh.

Fadil's upset. He glanced at Haji Gufron and elbowed his waist. Before his father left, the haughty Fadil began to poke.

"This father. He said there were two girls. This is a little boy, sir," said Fadil.

"Even if they're kids, they're girls too, right?" haji Gufron chuckled at Fadil's irritation, leaving Fadil with two little girls on the doorstep.

Fadil snorted faintly while turning his lips. Next, he stepped outside, taking the two young children to sit on the terrace chair. Sukma and Fani complied, then sat expectantly with the young man before them.

"What are you guys looking for me?" tanya Fadil frowned.

"A Fadil, can you help us?" Sukma asked back.

"Help what? If you help me, I don't want to. Cheek again."

"Ih, not help the snack. I asked Aa to let us cross, nolongin," said Sukma.

"Nolongin? Where are you guys going?" ask Fadil, more astonished.

"Monkey Sukma kidnapped. He asked Aa for help to bring back the monkey" explained Fani.

"Yes, A. Aa can help us, can't you?" timpal Sukma's.

"Dedek knows, the house that kidnapped the monkey?" ask Fadil in doubt.

"Know dong. It was right back home from school to be taken with Mother to her home. His house is our school deck," replied Sukma. "Aa Fadil wants to help us, right? Pliii."

"If that's all you doang, okay. I anterin y'all go straight to his house," said Fadil agreed. "You guys wait a minute. I'm gonna bring the keys to the bike."

While Fadil walked into his house, the two little boys jumped in joy. Sukma was grateful, Fadil was willing to help him. Not only helped cross the road, but drove him directly to the houses of the gondrong fathers who kidnapped Wanara.

"Tuh, right. What did I say? Aa Fadil must want to nolongin us," said Sukma.

"Yes. Not only want to help cross, but nganterin to the home of the kidnapper," said Fani chimed in.

"Well, now you don't have to worry about being colonized by my monkey kidnappers. There's A Fadil helping us."

Shortly thereafter, Fadil came out wearing a helmet and carrying a motorcycle key. He took the two little girls on his bike. Once ready, the young man drove his vehicle towards the school where Sukma and Fani studied.

Sukma who sat in the middle, showed the way to the house of Ki Purnomo. Just a little forward, then crossed into a smaller street. After passing through five houses, will appear Ki Purnomo residence whose yard is overgrown with two sapodilla trees. Sukma told Fadil to stop his bike, then the young man decided to put his vehicle into the yard of Ki Purnomo's house.

They immediately got off the bike. Sukma who was so impatient to find his favorite monkey, immediately ran into the house whose door was not closed. One by one the doors of the room inside were opened. From the front room to the second room.

Stepping further into the gondrong man's residence, Fadil's hair bristled. He felt that the house was no ordinary house. His eyes looked warily in all directions, feeling that someone was paying attention from some point of the house.

When he arrived at a room at the corner of the central room, Sukma stopped for a moment. His eyes closed, glaring into the contents of the room. Looks like small bottles neatly arranged in it. Many dedemites are confined in each bottle. However, there was not a single bottle filled with Wanara there.

"Where, Sukma? Where'd you meet the monkey?" ask Fani.

Sukma opened his eyes, then complained, "Nothing, Fani. There's no bottle that's in my monkey."

Fani grimaced while scratching her head. "What was the monkey in the bottle?"

"Little bottle. Kayak perfume bottle," explained Sukma.

"Huh? Perfume bottle? Your monkey is small, huh? Or is it a baby?"

"No. Monkey I'm so gedeee, so big as Aa Fadil."

"Well? A big monkey could fit in a perfume bottle, would it?"

"You won't understand, Fani."

In between their chatter, Fadil finds another room hidden by a curtain. The young man opened his curtain slowly and found a room whose door was open. On the floor, a small bottle lay.

Soon Sukma and Fani approached the young man. When standing near Fadil, Sukma searched for the small bottle in question. He didn't see it at all. Let alone a small bottle, something he saw was just an empty room with no furniture in it.

"Where, A? There are no bottles here" Sukma said.

"That's. Near the doorstop" said Fadil.

"Where are you going, Sukma?" fani asked, then picked up a small bottle inside the doorstop. "This is the bottle."

Sukma glanced at Fani and found a small bottle in her friend's hand. His face, which had been confused since then, changed. Soon Sukma took the bottle from Fani's hand, and examined it carefully. Sure enough, there are monkeys in it.

"Wanara! It's engrossed! Thank you, yes, Fani," said Sukma happily.

"Yes, you're welcome."

"Then shall we go home now?" ask Fadil.

Sukma nodded quickly. "Come, A. We're home."

Hurry and rush them out of the residence of Ki Purnomo. Sukma seemed happy after getting Wanara back easily. Not to forget, Fadil closed the door of Ki Purnomo's house so that no thieves would enter there.

But when he was about to ride the bike, suddenly Ki Purnomo came furious. He apparently changed his mind when he came out of the Puskesmas and decided not to obey his teacher. Fani and Fadil were surprised to see the gondrong man. Soon, Fadil boarded his motorbike, then invited Sukma and Fani to be immediately hugged.

"Wait first! Where are you guys going?" ki Purnomo.

"K-we .. we want to go home. I thought, this is my friend's house," the pretext of Fadil trying to avoid the tantrums of Ki Purnomo.

"Reason!" Ki Purnomo's eyes were fixed on Sukma. "You, Little Boy! What else would you like to come to my house?"

"I told you, I want to bring my beloved monkey," replied Sukma innocently.

"It's not that easy, Son of Satan! Step over my body!"

"I don't want to fight, I don't want to fight" Sukma refused.

"I don't care! Face me quickly if you dare."

Sukma let out a long sigh, then left the small bottle containing Wanara on Fadil. The young man picked it up and put it in his pants pocket. Before starting to fight, Fadil warns Sukma not to fight the long-haired man. However, the stubborn Sukma, reluctant to retreat before giving a lesson to Ki Purnomo.

Ki Purnomo rolled up his sleeves, preparing to attack Sukma. He does not want to think long about the risks that will be faced later. For him, making Wanara as a pleasure creature is more profitable than hearing the words of Mbah Kasiman.

"So, you really want to fight me? Okay," said Sukma.

Ki Purnomo spat while staring intently at Sukma. In his mind, Sukma is just a child who is still innocent and does not fight. Nevertheless, Ki Purnomo did not want to take his opponent lightly, considering Sukma is not an ordinary child.

The mouth of the gondrong man began to mutter the spell. His hands were crossed in front of his chest, then moved slowly like he was about to push something. When his inner power will attack Sukma, Ki Purnomo mustered all his strength to attack Sukma.

Apparently, luck had not sided with the little girl. He slammed far enough back, to make Fadil and Fani scream in panic. However, Sukma could still rise. The little girl stood firm, then stepped forward to face her opponent.

Ki Purnomo would not remain silent. Attack after attack was launched, right into the body of Sukma who was really ready to receive it. The little girl's shoulders were only pushed slightly back, but her steps were still firm. His body indirectly absorbed all the inner power that Ki Purnomo was charged with, so Sukma had full strength to counterattack.

Seeing his opponent getting closer, Ki Purnomo widened his eyes. The deep energy attack he launched on Sukma, turned out to be nothing. Surprisingly, the little girl was already clutching her hand. Sukma twisted Ki Purnomo's hand, then pushed him to the ground. Without hesitation, he stomped on the back of the man firmly.

Fadil and Fani are amazed to see the incredible power that Sukma shows. Both of them immediately got off the motorbike, when they found out that the long-haired man was roaring in pain due to Sukma's incursion. Repeatedly Fadil yells to prevent Sukma, but the little girl does not bully him.

"Dedek Sukma, stop! Poor him in pain!" tegur Fadil holds Sukma's hand.

Sukma did not hear it at all, but Fadil did not want to give up. The young man pulled the left leg that stepped on Ki Purnomo's back, though it felt very difficult. Sukma's legs felt heavier than before, so Fadil had to try hard to let go.

Meanwhile, Fani pulls Sukma's body to immediately retreat from Ki Purnomo. He also persuaded his friend not to step on the long-haired man. However, Sukma was still reluctant to take his foot off Ki Purnomo's back.

The long-haired man seemed helpless to break away from Sukma. The pain that tormented his body, was unbearable. Blood flowed out of his nose and mouth, until finally Ki Purnomo died.

Knowing that the gondrong man's heart was no longer beating, Sukma let go. Slowly his consciousness returned, and his body fell backwards with Fani. The little girl complained, then quickly got up while holding her friend's hand.

While Fani and Sukma patted her dirty clothes, Fadil crouched down to turn Ki Purnomo over. How surprised he was when he saw the blood pouring out and the nose and mouth of the long-haired man. When holding onto Ki Purnomo's chest, Fadil did not feel a heartbeat at all. Both of Fadil's eyes widened, staring at Sukma in horror. He did not expect, that the step foot of the little girl could kill the life of an adult man.

"These fathers are dead. Sukma Deck, these fathers are dead! How's this?" ask Fadil to panic.

Fani smothered her mouth with both hands, her eyes widened. He turned to Sukma who was mediocre like innocent. Sukma looked back at him while flickering.

"Yes, we go home. He is dead, he is buried" Sukma said casually.

Meanwhile in the contract, Bu Inah daydreams about the fate of Sukma. Deeply daydreaming, the middle-aged woman accidentally sliced her finger while peeling an onion. Ms. Inah was stunned when she felt a pain in her hand. Immediately he clenched his index finger so that his blood would quickly stop.

"Eat, Mom. If peeling onions, do not while daydreaming," said Mr. Risman put catfish that have been washed.

"Finally, I think the same way Dedek, sir," said Bu Inah lethargicly.

"What else is going on with Dedek? By the way digress again?"

Ms. Inah shook her head. "So I saw for myself, Dedek wanted to kill a father who had kidnapped his monkey. It's just so horrifying, sir. Those gentlemen can't get up at all."

"Really, Mom? It's weird, Sukma was a kid. Where did he get the strength from to make the fathers helpless?"

"Mother doesn't understand either, sir. I'm afraid, Dedek's looking for the man again and he's gonna kill him like a shaman who attacked Bu Farah."

"Just calm down, Mom. Dedek will never do that again. Didn't you advise her not to kill people?"

Ms. Inah breathed a heavy breath. He has a hunch that Sukma will get into trouble this time. His heart was troubled, to the point that his mind was not calm just because he thought of Sukma.
