The Invisible

“Jaka... let's leave later late..!,” shouted Vivi calling Jaka to leave for school immediately.

“Ia. he Kak, bring really,” sahut Jaka who just came out of the house approached Vivi who was ready with his metallic motor

“You're a slow guy anyway,” said Vivi a little angry

“Bah, umi we leave Assalamualaikum,” said Vivi while starting to ride her meticulous motorbike with Jaka piggybacked in the back.

“Waalaikumsalam, uh stock you guys..,” yell umi Epi.

“Must forget to bring their provisions,” said Umi Epi grumbled

“Have two children who are tomboyish girls, which is one guy but kalem yah fortunately Jaka is not like a girl still like a normal boy,” said Umi Epi.

“Waduh, waduh this why Abah's beautiful wife has mengedumel what is umi?,” asked Abah Wachid”

“Loh Umi, why the provision of children is still in Umi?,” asked Abah Wachid once again rather seriously

“Well that's why umi ngedumel own provision of children miss Abah,” said Umi Epi

“Hahaha... How can you miss it every day,” said Abah Wachid.

“Let Abah deliver to Umi school,” Abah said as she passed into the house.

“True Bah, Abah.?!,” Shout umi at Abah who is already inside the house.

”Ia Umi....,” shouts also from Abah.

“Eh basic Si Abah invited to talk instead Go,” said Umi.

Meanwhile, at a crossroad of the city next to the city park called Kebun Rojo, there was a series of accidents that resulted in many deaths.

Vivi who was riding his bike with Jaka who was in the bonceng at the back began to reduce the speed of the motorbike he was driving.

“Loh kak why kok slowly bring his motorbike he said afraid late,” said Joko who was not aware that in front of him there was an accident with some victims lying covered in blood.

“You were so the focus of the Deck saw that your front was stuck again there was an accident,” Vivi said.

Suddenly Jaka's eyes were fixed on the figure of a long-bearded old man carrying a stick standing right beside the car that was in an accident.

The old man stared intently at Jaka and smiled grinningly so horrified his face plus his mouth suddenly grew long fangs that made Jaka frightened.

“Kak, Vivi's sister who's sister?,” asked Jaka while pointing at the car that had an accident with severe ringsek.

“Where is nothing?,” said Vivi who could not see the old Grandpa.

“Kak we turn the direction yuk us through another road that Grandpa feet not tread the ground,” said Jaka.

“Mana, where there is nothing, you must be so that I am afraid that it is always so,” Vivi said while turning the direction of the motor.

“Where-where indigo is consecrated yes, rich, is this my sister Jaka nyusahin just do it,” Vivi said while ngedumel himself insinuated Jaka.

“Don't be angry Brother,” said Jaka bowed sadly.

Finally they arrived at the parking lot of the State High School 3 Jombang. Vivi still continues to mengedumel since the intersection immediately parked the motorbike.

“Eh Dik, from here you walk by yourself yes brother does not want in the banter of brother friends. Because of your geeky grooming understand,” said Vivi continues to pass.

“Ia Kak, “Jaka just said with a sad face and walked slowly in the school corridor to his class.

“Hai Jaka...,” Rensi and Rudi startled Jaka from behind together with this lover's partner Jaka's friend, who was always beside Jaka comforting her.

“Eh why is this handsome guy pouting?,” said Rensi.

“Biasah Ren, must be early in the morning Kak Vivi has been nagging,” said Rudi.

“No.., you guys were wrong on the road there was an accident. Surprisingly there was a creepy old grandfather with long fangs and carrying a stick, but Kak Vivi could not see it,” said Jaka.

“Ia kah wah what kind of creature yes.?,” said Rensi who already knew that Jaka was one of the children with special abilities to see the invisible.

Arriving at the classroom they sat on their respective benches and were still discussing the red light ghost,

“Assalamualaikum..,” Pak Bambang math teacher has come while greeting.

“Waallaikumsalam,” replied the students simultaneously.

“Today we repeat yes as I said yesterday you have learned last night,” said Mr. Bambang while sharing a paper back to the students and the class went back to silence.

“Jakaa... Jaka.... ,” there is a voice that seems to call Jaka but is so soft, but it feels so clear in Jaka's ear.

Jaka tried to look around his class that he found only classmates who were busy working on math repetition with subdued focus.

Jaka looked around looking for the origin of the voice. Jaka's eyes were fixed on the corner of the back of the classroom precisely on the wall. A long-haired figure dangled with a long protruding tongue and an extremely sinister face stuck to the wall like a pedicab was staring at him.

“I.. the...,” Said Jaka while stammering

“Hei.. hey.. Jaka what is it?,” said Rudi who was astonished to see the gelagat of his compatriot.

“Already... already istigfar Jaka,” said Rudi

“Innalilahi wainnailaihi raziun,” said Jaka remembered his Abah's message if he saw an invisible figure to say Innalilahi and the figure instantly vanished somewhere.

At Abah Wachid's house it appears that Epi was preparing books of the book Abah wanted to take to teach in the boarding house not far from his home.

Pondok pesantren As-salam is a boarding school in Mokem village founded by Abah Wachid and self-help villagers so that there is a place to learn to teach the villagers, thought, because all this time the children in Mokem village had to go to other villages to teach.

“Umi, have you prepared the book of Abah?,” said Abah Wachid

“Already this Abah,” said umi Epi while holding out a bag full of books.

“Breakfast first Abah, oh he Abah do not forget later at noon deliver supplies children to school,” said Umi Epi.

“Ia Umi,” Abah said as she sat down and started breakfast.

“Eh Abah, umi remembered the story 15 years ago when Abah and other residents helped Jaka then Jaka we decided to stay here to be our children to accompany Vivi our first child,” said Umi Epi

“Ia, yes Umi did not feel 15 years passed so quickly. It feels like just yesterday yes it happened,” said Abah Wachid.

“How do you know if Jaka can see ghosts?,” said umi Epi.

“Tau is Abah who taught him to teach and practice sholawat so people who teach of course there are privileges,” said Abah Wachid.

“But Umi was afraid that Jaka knew who he was and followed in his family's footsteps to worship other than Allah. Gaining wealth from the results of worshiping demons,” said Umi Epi.

“Hustz.. umi do not talk ngawur, talk is prayer let alone you a mother her words directly recorded angel,” said Abah Wachid.

“Eh he Umi, is it true that news, that the family of Mr. Lurah was very rich. Getting his wealth the wrong way is worshiping the devil?,” said Abah Wachid.

“Yah... well.., Abah just reminded Umi to talk is a prayer now Abah suudjon on the dead,” said Umi Epi.

“Astagfirullah,” says Umi Epi.

“Have left there later pity your santri-santri,” said Umi Epi

“Ia Umi, Abah departs Assalamualaikum,” said Abah Wachid

“Waalaikumsalam,” replied Umi Epi.
