The Empty House

Chapter 21 The root of the problem

Mr. Jono and Mr. Jono then recounted the incident this morning after Sintia went to the hospital.

Sintia was the hardest hit with the death of Mr. Ratih and if Mr. Jono and Bu Jono told about the crying from the grave it would make Sintia worse.

They then wait until Sintia goes to find a story on Rangga. Rangga was a man and he was considered more determined to listen to the strange incident.

"Rangga.tadi morning we accidentally passed in the grave. And we heard the sound of crying from there. We thought there was a girl who needed help, but it turned out that after we looked for the direction of the voice, it came from inside the grave of Mrs Ratih.

Rangga was silent and his eyes stared intently at Mr. Jono.

"Baner boy. We actually heard that voice from your mother's grave..."

"What does it mean, sir?" Rangga did not understand and was confused if it was true.

"We must communicate with your mother's spirit" replied Mr. Jono.

"But can it?"

"Can son. But it's not us who do it. We need to find a smart man who used to call spirits,"

"Ohh, I have a friend but I'm not sure he wants to do it?"

"Why son?"

The stairs reminded her that her friend Toni could summon spirits. But his father died because of the spirit of the empty house. Rangga was reluctant to ask her for help once again.

"But we'll find someone else.."he said.

"Yes son.we must know why there is such a cry...."

.

Toni who has been doing semedi and learning again the science of her father's book suddenly called Rangga.

Toni.....

Rangga who was confused to find a smart person was surprised to get a call from his friend.

"Can we meet bro?!"

"OKAY....!"

They made an appointment to meet at the hospital. They talk in the park before seeing Rangga's father who is still in a coma.

"We have to save your father bro! Your mother's dead, and that surprised me. My father was also a victim of the ghostly violence in that empty house. And I'm sure your father will be safe if we destroy them all...."

"What!?" Rangga was surprised and shook his head.

"Well....?"

Toni then whispered in Rangga's ear.

"We do not know when the spirits will leave the house. As long as they're there. We won't be able to do it. Because they will definitely save his house" said Rangga after hearing the proposal from Toni to burn the house.

"You said your mother was crying in her grave, didn't you?"

"I don't know for sure. Mr. Jono and Mr. Jono heard it firsthand."

"Not wrong anymore. We can ask for help from your mother's spirit. We'll call him and communicate with him. After that we will look for the root of all these problems. You know, bro, what we're doing is gonna save the next victim. If we don't do it, then there'll always be the next victim..."

"All right, I agree with you. When are we gonna do it?"

"Let me tell you, before that I will prepare everything. My father left a very valuable book that he had not learned. And now I've learned it. I'll also avenge what they did to my father...."

"Yes. We both have lost our loved ones because of the brutality of the spirits" Rangga continued.

The two of them then clasped each other and nodded confidently in winning against them.

"We'll win!"

"Yes hopefully...."

"Citizens will surely be willing to help us. With their help, then we will definitely be stronger...."
