The After I Die
Who Cannot Die
“You said you were going to tell me about the terror that happened that night” Kina said with a demanding look, they just got home from school, the sun was still high and dwelling in the shade was a pleasant thing before Kina's question came up, this friend of hers had not once asked twice on this day, maybe almost every time asked the same question. Dayuti was irritated to the crown. He sat on top of a dead tree trunk only sighing deeply.
Kina thought about many things lately, ranging from the terror she experienced, the incident of Mada's corpse rising from the grave to the village law. He had asked many times what was the reason his parents told him to be quiet, and also the reason why he should not go out at night, but nil, his parents did not give any answers, just mockery.
It seems his mother had a habit of cursing. Although he was accustomed to receiving the curse every day, his heart was getting sicker and sicker every day.
“I? I don't remember” She said casually, Kina glared at Dayuti for a while, her lips curving down, a sign of annoyance. Dayuti felt uncomfortable being stared at like that until the girl gave up.
“Good, good. I'll tell you what I know”
Kina approached and sat on a rock directly across from Dayuti. They are currently on the edge of the lake not far from the school, the lake is not large, the water is green because of a lot of moss, villagers rarely use this lake, only occasionally to fish.
“Two months ago I came here with my brother, and we stayed at Pak Mursa's rented house, initially every afternoon he came and told us to never open the door at night, we thought maybe because this place is secluded there are wild animals or robbers, so we did not pay too much attention to”
“What happened?”
“That night was exactly two weeks we stayed here, I couldn't sleep, it was hot, so I opened a little window of my room to get a fresh breeze”
“You saw them?”
“Yes. Fortunately it was only me who saw, not them, I quickly closed the door and slept, tomorrow Mursa came and scolded us”
“She said I was lucky not to be seen by them”
“They are what?”
“Pak Mursa said they are human beings who can not die, how yes they should have died, but can not. they are human beings have black magic, he said if he saw them, he said, you won't be safe anywhere but home. They'll be looking for you”
“Something that can't die? You mean the undead like zombies?” Kina asked curiously, she remembered watching it on television, biting each other and eating fellow humans.
“It's too cool spelled out zombie”
Regarding something that could not die, he suddenly remembered Grandma Niba, his body shuddered in fear yesterday, he did not see the old grandmother rising from her bed holding Nukas but he saw her reflection.
The shadow of a horrible long-haired woman.
Without a second thought Kina ran away trembling, fortunately she did not hit something there, in her little heart she was also worried about Nukas.
"Can't Grandma Niba die too?" Kina asked suddenly
"I don't know, I've heard that rumor a few times, but it's just a rumor, nobody knows. No one's ever seen him out of the house anyway"
I saw him yesterday, no. I saw his shadow.
Expel the shadow of Grandma Niba from her head Kina tried to think realistically “So, because I was seen by them so I was constantly experiencing terror? Am I going to be one of them?”
Imagining the flesh on her body apart one after another already made Kina shudder in horror.
Dayuti did not answer, he threw a pebble into the lake, causing the sound of water splashing.
Don't know what to answer.
I'll be safe at home, it'll be fine.
Kina and Dayuti looked at each other and thought hard, too many things happened.
“It seems, I don't know much about it, someone might know and could handle this” Dayuti said with a serious face, Kina looked up at the standing Dayuti.
“Who?”
“Someone who recently became a bell keeper, Eda”
Dayuti pointed to the bell tower from a distance behind the lush trees. The bell keeper has the authority to go out at night to ring the bell. It was not impossible for Eda to know everything.
They stood up, walking side by side towards the house of Eda, from a distance he saw the tanned man sitting on the porch, sifting through the freshly picked mango from the tree.
“I want to ask you something,” Without further ado Kina said in front of Eda, the man snorted.
“I won't tell you even if I know something” Eda said ketus without looking at Kina.
“Why?”
Eda did not answer, busy putting one mango after another into the wicker basket, then stood inside.
“Eda!”
The door closed with a loud noise, a sign that he did not want to be disturbed.
“She is very.. rough” Dayuti commented.
“Actually why are you? You always seem to hate me from time to time, when we're friends from childhood!” Kina shouted in front of the door, pounding on the door tightly.
Silent for a moment and unexpectedly Eda opened the door and said quietly, “Don't yell in front of my house!” Eda looked at Kina annoyed, “You shouldn't forget her, you changed a lot from what I remember”
Kina was silent stiff, what did she forget? Eda's face looks upset and full of sadness.
“What changed?” Kina asked again.
"You"
"Me?"
“Go back to the city” Eda intends to expel, accidentally his hand pushed Kina, a little surprised but he again closed the door rudely. Kina fell to her feet in confusion to digest every word that came out of Eda's mouth. Dayuti pulled her, helped her up, as they almost left the porch, the door opened again, bringing up half of Eda's body.
“Be careful with your actions” Whisper with eyes glancing right and left, Kina followed her gaze, there was no one there.
“They watch over you” He said with a hand that slowly moved shut the door, Kina immediately felt her body limp, her face deathly pale, as her eyes saw a puddle of black water not far from them, without saying anything, he dragged Dayuti away.
I will definitely die!
