The guardians of the past
episode 3
“ I still can't believe we brought this box de..”.
“Ade would not want to bring it if not the grandmother who asked for help to bring it to uncle. Maybe grandma already can not take care of the objects in this box after death abah.”
Rara could not express her feelings towards the sword, and the power that enveloped her, a feeling that made Rara unable to get far away from it, ever since the sword was opened a few days ago.
“Do you know the contents of this box?” sttt... Never divulge this secret yes, the contents of this box is sword”.
“”does anything happen after opening that box?”
“Nothing except grandma and Abah found me saw it .."
“ And another one, the sword has the name Wira rahiyangtang raki.”
“ supposedly said from what I heard from Abah and grandmother, telling me when I was a child, the sword was cursed, so it should not be touched by women.”
“Behold the obvious truth this rule is passed down for generations.”
“do not know centuries ago generations ago still believe in magical things such as magic, curses, flying humans and people can walk in the water.
When we reached the uncle's house, Rara never finished to admire the beauty of the towering hills and tea gardens that spread.
Not yet Rara out of the car came mang Udin the house keeper of his loyal uncle from since Rara was a child until now.
“Neng Rara den orange, the same father jayadarma mother just left earlier, to the house of his best friend father in Jakarta was malem died”
“ Father same mother pesen neng same Aden rest and nginep here first, until the same father mother come home tomorrow.
“Iya mang thanks we go in and rest first yes inside.”
“ Yes den.. mango..”.
Rara uses the most corner bedroom in this house, even the bed and furniture in this house are all antique. Rara glanced at the wooden box as she walked in her bedroom towards the bathroom.
Her impulse to move towards the box and open it was not as big as the days before at my grandmother's house. Rara fought hard to resist the impulse, trying to keep the object from controlling her.
Today's an exception, because Rara had to make sure the sword was fine all that long in the car. The struggle to resist his inner urge to open the box has become part of his obsession. Rara even refused the orange to keep this box in her room.
After being tired and sticky Rara took a bath under the shower for ten minutes and with a thick towel wrapped around her body she looked for a nightgown that was available in the wardrobe. His body was still too wet to wear clothes, so he combed his hair first.
From the mirror, Rara could see the bed, and the box lying on it, and suddenly she realized that she had no desire to open the box. Maybe he was too tired. But Rara has promised to open the box and there is no big feeling to open the box.
He took the key, out of his handbag and into bed, in just a few seconds the sword was in his hand. The handle of the sword still felt warm, just like the last time Rara held it. And strangely by chance, he again heard the roar of lightning from a distance, and although his room was quite bright, but a glimpse of light was seen from the backyard through the windows of his room, and, the light penetrated his room even though his window was covered in curtains.
Rara turned to the window to see that there was no rain or wind outside, when Rara would check the situation outside, heard a soft cry of a man in the corner of his room. And not just any man, he is a Wira, Rara again works the eyes, but the man is still there. And his mind was so exhausted
can't accept this reality.
The man who appeared exactly like the one who had appeared in his grandmother's house, his face his body would not be able to forget. Rara admits in her heart, she likes the man in his physical limits only. And why he thought of that idea.
The man was dressed a bit differently this time, he was not bare-chested, but was wearing a visible shirt to protect his body, it took a few minutes for Rara to realize that he was carrying a bloodstain stain, there was blood on the corner of the man's lips.
“oh Lord, you did not hurt orange and mang Udin when entering this house right?”
“Jingga.?”
“What I lost was my nemesis Aryaka.”
He saw the anger in the voice and the look on the man's face, Rara was really confused by the presence of this man in her room, and felt angry with Rara, it should be Rara who felt disturbed and angry. Rara interrupted immediately.
“ Please stop the master who I do not know where you are from with the costume you wear, your silliness is already too excessive”.
The man cut back, “ you called me nyi, I was forced to come because of your orders.”
Rara narrowed her eyes at the man, and was about to say when cut by the man.
“But, by the way, if you call me to sleep, then my bubuyutann enemy can wait.”
The man stared at the towel wrapped in his body, a few centimeters of Rara's upper body clearly visible. Rara's face was immediately flooded with red, when she understood her words.
Rara hurriedly picked up the sword lying in front of her body, purely an instinctive reaction Rara raised the sword towards the man. The reaction of the man was confusing.
The man laughs his head is pushed back, his voice is not made up, because there is something funny. When the voice of his laughter began to disappear the man said.
“My sword won't hurt me anything else kill me. The one who can kill me is the one who cursed me.
Rara did not listen to anything the man said other than the sword was hers.And the sense of having the sword sticking out.
“Your sword?, this is my sword my family sword.!”
“you have a few seconds to get out of this house, or I'll call the police!”
“Not invited to sleep, then?”
“Out!” Rara yells.
The man shrugged his shoulders while grinning. Then he disappeared in front of Rara and once again, there was a rumble of thunder from a distance followed by lightning.
For a few minutes Rara was still staring at the place where the man was standing. His heart was racing, his mind was frozen, his hair was standing.
When her mind began to work normally again, Rara carefully lifted the sword and put her box in her nightgown and went up to bed, he was still and stared at the corner for quite a while. He did not even want to turn off his room lights.
When she finally laid down her body, on the bed, Rara let out a heavy sigh. In the morning, he would definitely have a reasonable explanation for this incident. Right now, all he could think of was the fact that he was losing his mind.
