...

visual aryo house seen from the front...

The weather in the sky was again shrouded in cloudy air. The cold again blew from behind the curtain of the sky atmosphere.the pace of the air moved to shake a bunch of mango trees embedded in the yard of a simple house.

" this is the tea dinda, may you like, "in a soft voice, aryo smiled as he handed a cup of tea to a white hijab-wearing woman named dinda. dinda smiled sweetly to the man in front of her.

" thank you mas, sorry I so ngerepotin gini, "said dinda bashful. teas warm in front of him mengepulkan hot steam.a drink that is suitable enjoyed in a cold atmosphere.

Aryo sat in a chair opposite to dinda. they were both sitting around casually on the terrace of the house. enjoying the atmosphere of the village even though with a blurry background due to overcast.

Quite a long time they were silent with each other, until Aryo took the initiative to start a chat.

" how dinda, ama condition mpok ningsih? is it okay? " said aryo on dinda who is busy sipping tea made.

Dinda stopped her drinking. Her little eyes glanced at aryo before saying.

" hmmm... as far as I have checked, the condition of the ningsih normal-normal mas only. even after I checked the condition of the body, blood pressure, and diet of mpok ningsih, everything is fine mas.nothing strange, "reply dinda at length.His forehead shriveled like he was thinking something.

" but there is something strange with the neck part of mpok ningsih mas, " continued dinda.

Aryo cringed, "strange how do you mean din? " ask aryo.

" of the parts of the body that I examined, only the neck and back had wounds such as scratches or scratches" said dinda. his eyes looked up, remembering.

Aryo, whose people lay with the world of sweets, is increasingly confused.

" how could you? rich scratches scratches cat scratches? " cock aryo.

Dinda shook her head, convinced that the wound was not an animal-induced wound.

" not a mas, this wound extends vertically.its size is large enough to be called a wound caused by animals, "dinda explained once again.

" even almost like an incision compared to a scratch, "

" what are you really doing? "

" i'm serious, "

Aryo again fell silent.his mind floated freely thinking about this, and without realizing if there is a pair of eyes that pay close attention to him.

" huh, so dizzy himself think of ginian things, but want how also important the state of mpok ningsih well aja din. kasian loh mpok ningsih, his son–si maman even said, " aryo said his eyeballs saw the woman in front of him correcting the hijab.

" uh i-iya mas, by the way how was the last news about the maman deck? have you met mas? " in a somewhat stammering tone, dinda asked aryo. The woman who works as a nurse was a little misbehaved when aryo's eyes hit her.

Aryo was a little surprised by the behavior of his best friend, but he did not want to think about it. Maybe dinda was coming moon or what was it thought aryo.

" not yet din. Police are still searching around the village.I hope to meet children, "reply aryo.

Dinda nodded slowly. Both of them were still busy with their own thoughts.

" as aryo, I want to ask you a question? " said dinda spoke again.a gust of wind came smashing into the sweet white face of the woman.His round eyes saw aryo who was also staring at her.

" ask what din? " example aryo.

Dinda was silent for a moment.His heart thumped slightly as aryo continued to look at her.

" hmmm..anu mas, I want to ask you about the woman who was sitting on your porch, who is she? How rich I just saw him in this village, "said dinda trying to control her heartbeat.

" who's din's girl? " aryo frowned.

" it's loh mas, the mother who wears a tight yellow shirt.her hair is long strung out. judging from her clothes, he was a mas singer, " lang dinda described the characteristics of the woman he had seen earlier.

Aryo was clearly a little surprised to hear the description of dinda. who is the woman? it seems he never had a female acquaintance as told by dinda...

" it is impossible, I have died myself. Maybe it is just a wrong vision, there is no way it is, " whispered aryo in his heart.

" the aryo.mas aryo... "

Aryo gasped from his daydream.The sound of dinda was heard calling her name repeatedly.

" uh yes din, sorry I was daydreaming earlier, " said aryo apologizing while smiling clumsyly.

Dinda smiled with understanding.

" hehehe, it's okay. So who is that woman? Temen you yes, "look dinda dinda further. his face looks waiting for a response.

Dinda was silent with a thinking pose.

" So when I passed in front of your house mas, when I want to go to his house mpok ningsih, "answered dinda.

Aryo nodded.although in his heart suddenly tucked away a feeling of anxiety.

" but when I see mas, the mother is rich diem aja mas.he is rich dreamy, "add dinda.

" now where are the kids din, "ask aryo.

Dinda shrugged her shoulders, not knowing.

" i don't know either. When I came to your house, the baby didn't exist.he probably left, " said Dinda.

Aryo was silent, as well as dinda. while the cloudy itself was getting thicker in the sky. The atmosphere of the village was getting gloomy. it looks like a big rain will come back down.

" mas aryo, mas lives alone in the house, "tanya dinda suddenly.

Aryo looked and nodded.

" yes din, I just live alone in this house after my death, "said aryo with a moody tone.

" don't be sad anymore mas, we pray that you can get a quiet place in nature there, " said dinda trying to comfort aryo who looks moody.

Aryo nodded with a smile.dot of clear details dripped out of the corner of his eyes.aryo still felt the loss of the figure of his beloved wife.

" yes, thank you, "he replied. hurriedly he wiped his tears that came down. Aryo tried to be strong and strong in the face of this ordeal.

" mas aryo, if you feel lonely at home, you can play at home pakde ama bukdeku, "dinda give advice to aryo. the woman could not bear to see her old friend in a state of languish.

" yes, later God willing I will stop by your father's house, "reply aryo.

Dinda smiled happily as aryo accepted his invitation.A breezy chill felt blowing from the sky mosquito net.along with the sound of wind whirring hit them.

" waduh mas, kanya want to try big again, I say go home first yes mas, afraid of rain on the road, " said dinda while standing up. do not forget to take the bag and his cellphone lying on the round table owned by aryo.the woman was preparing to leave when she saw the rain water stubs that began to fall.

" yes din that way, say my greetings to your sir yes, " said aryo to the dinda who was preparing to leave.

" yes mas, later I say the same to him, "answer dinda. after saying goodbye to aryo, dinda walk to the bike. because indeed the distance between the house pakdenya with the house aryo quite far and also have to penetrate the forest road.

when he arrived at his motorbike parked near the old gate of the aryo house, he fiddled to look towards the aryo. dinda was silent for a moment when her gaze unintentionally looked towards the glass window that was behind the aryo.

dinda's eyes seemed forced to continue looking towards the reflection of the silhouette. The condition of the house that is indeed dimly lit without light, increasingly clarifies the white silhouette.Silhouette like a female figure who looks to be standing near a glass window. was that the woman he had seen a while ago? Ask yourself.

It looks like the figure is watching himself from behind the window glass.dinda himself began to feel uncomfortable with this suddenly changing atmosphere.

" dinda, "aryo's voice sounded reprimanding.

dinda looked up with a surprised face. He saw Aryo who was looking at him in wonder.

" why are you dreaming? hayu cepet home, the rain will increase profusely, "excited aryo.

Dinda slightly fluttered as aryo's voice resuscitated her.

" yes, I'm sorry to daydream, "answered a cry. When his eyes again saw the reflection of the silhouette, it turned out that the figure had disappeared from his view.

aryo was a little surprised to see the behavior of dinda, but he did not want to take a headache.

" yes do that, there go home, "said aryo while showing off his teeth.

Dinda pouted with puffed cheeks.

" huh baga bener deh mas aryo, "dinda chirps with lips weaved. secretly his heart warms up when aryo gives more attention to him. dinda immediately put his motor out of the yard of the aryo house.

In the midst of his pleasure, there was a feeling of anxiety.he remembered the figure behind the window earlier. He felt a bad feeling.

Although faint, but dinda seemed to feel an evil air that slowly out of the walls of the house aryo.

" may my premonition be wrong, god protect mas aryo, may he be fine, "his prayer in heart for the man who is often present in his dreams.
