The INDIGO'S

Towards the kingdom of the monkey demon

Not a single word came out of me, my mother seemed to feel also what I felt .

"you help me with prayer, may you quickly return with us" said Mama to all in this room, then looked at me

"nak ..ayo, we'll pick up grandpa" I nodded in understanding

What was in my vision was grandfather who was in the forest with some other people, there were also many monkeys, there were many monkeys ,however, there is one monkey that is different from the other monkeys, its size is three times larger than the other ,also the color is white unlike other monkeys that are brown.

"why isn't dad here, why pick up ?" ask me Febry frowned looking at me and my mom

"this is not our realm, let's just do what your brother says " said Ifel

"your brother is also "o o Febry glared

Before we start, you first call grandma, because maybe Ari already can't wait for video call .

"ma...where is his grandfather ?" asked Ari on the phone screen, mama also shifted the screen towards the grandfather who was lying weakly in bed

"grandfather..get well quickly yes, I want to catch fish again in the pond with grandfather, then we will burn again in front of the house, grandfather must recover" said Ari in the other side, ' '' '' said ,her voice slightly shook with the sobbing even though her tears had already fallen down her cheeks ,Ari was also seen several times rubbing her cheeks , my sister spoke as if grandfather could hear her words .

"son, yes, where was Grandma?" ask mama

"yes Nur?" said grandma after the screen changed with the face of grandma

"mama should just go home , pity Ari ,we also do not know until when inside ,we are here to pray together for the recovery of father , it's okay ma, ma, if at home also mom can rest" said mom

"yes already then the same mom Ari came home yes "

"kok come home, grandma?" ask Ari chimed in

"here also we can not enter , his return will also be to your house next to the house of Maryam's grandmother, later we can pray at the house "sahut grandma

"oh I guess go home in Jakarta, ah the hospital suck why can not enter anyway "grunts Ari

"Ari..nak should not be so dear, the rules are so nak, after all it is true that the hospital is where people are sick, so more viruses and germs, ' he said , children like you are very susceptible to disease, son, later if you get sick do not bother too dear, grandfather has not healed plus you how ?" papa explained

"sorry pa.iya deh I just go home" said Ari resignedly.

"nah so dong new name mama papa's son beautiful and beautiful " timpal mama

"om Ifel will bring you and grandma home yes, at home you help pray grandfather yes" said mama again

"kok me?" point ifel to himself, but the lazy mama was just staring intently at Ifel

"ok.ok..ok I'm leaving" ifel also left after receiving the car keys from papa ,om Ifel came out.

We also have a house right next to the grandmother's house, the former home of Enthumah's grandmother's grandmother's former house Entin's neighbor grandmother, she died while I was still sitting in 5th grade Elementary School ,because his children settled outside the city so the house was sold, the father who knew it then bought and renovated it ,now the house became bigger because the building advanced a few meters forward, in the kitchen was joined with the house grandmother ,so if we want to go to the house grandma doesn't need to leave the house .

**

After taking the ablution water, I, mama ,papa ,om Febry and grandmother Maryam immediately prepare to do a prayer together .

Mama and I were sitting on the left side of Grandpa's right hand, we were both holding grandfather's hand, while the others were sitting down on the mat, lucky in this room there was only grandfather, ' he said ,because papa has asked for privaci on the side of the hospital, and paid dearly of course, the hospital also granted it.

"bismil was bornrahmanirrahim.." The chants of the Quran we began to read right, even Wewe's grandmother, Mr. Wowo and bang Popo stood near me and mama, the ghosts also helped ,except for Aunt Lasmi, Aunt Lasmi chose to avoid being with Mbak Rika because she could not stand the chanting of verses from the Qur'an.

I close my eyes and concentrate fully while continuing to chant the prayer, until I feel my body is attracted to something very strong, my body until it drifts up to get sucked into the black hole,no one knows if I have entered another world 'cause only my soul is gone while my body is still in the hospital room .

The other prayer chants accompanied me to a large place I did not know where it was ,what is clear now is that I am standing on a vast dry land that is only covered with tall towering trees, or what tree I do not want to think about .

"Oh Allah, take my footsteps to where my grandfather is "god in my heart.

I heard the sound of a simple animal, and it sounded like a monkey, and I walked towards the direction it came from.

The longer the clearer the sound was, until I saw a large rock stuck in the middle of the cliff .

Somehow I felt like I wanted to keep paying attention to her, and I felt a great energy from the direction of that cliff .

I also tried to step towards the cliff ,curam indeed , carefully my footrest passed some brownish rocks .

"Yes Allah.if there lies the gate to the monkey demon, then make it easy for the servant to enter his "inner again.

"bismillah.." I began to climb the wall of the cliff to get to the big rock, by constantly calling on the name of God I finally arrived at the rock .

The hot air directly ran through my body, but I tried to stay afloat, I'm sure grandfather is currently in the monkey demon realm .

Raising both hands in front of my face, I chanted the holy verses of the Qur'an, and in the blink of an eye I saw a life worthy of his old countryside , the houses in this village are all stilt houses, containing dried coconut leaves and straw, the walls are from bamboo slats that are stacked , residents in this village are seen being decent activities of the population in general , there are sweeping pages , there are rice pummeled , while the one is pounding rice seeds ,the men were engaged busy , some were splitting wood, bringing grass and others as his .

I walked and entered the rural area, all the activities of the residents then stopped and turned to me .

"assalamualaikum...sorry if my arrival disturbs your comfort, I do not mean ...." I have not finished my words one of the villagers interjected.

"what business have you come here, son of man, are you lost?" asked the white-bearded grandfather with a plontos head against me

"your grandfather ....are you sure your grandfather was in this village?" ask her again

"it looks like my grandfather isn't here, but in the woods over there, isn't that where the monkey demons live?" ask me

"hm.you are not a careless child " his murmur while nodding his head.

"right in the forest there is indeed the location of the white monkey demon kingdom, but are you sure you can enter there easily ?" ask her again

"bismillah only, God willing God will facilitate my goals "my answer is steady.

the grandfather looked at the other citizens, as if asking for approval, maybe this grandfather was the elder in the old right or the customary stakeholders here, all the residents nodded their heads.

"alright ..we will take you before the gates of their kingdom, but we cannot enter because even though we are both of the gentleness, but we are in conflict , take good care of yourself there, and be careful " said the grandfather while giving way to you, and so with the other residents, they opened the way ,I also walked hand in hand with the grandfather I believed to be the elder in this village .

"just here, we'll be waiting for you here hopefully you can bring your grandfather back soon" said the grandfather

"yes, thank you so much grandfather, and all of them " said me, the grandfather smiled

I let out a long sigh before stepping my foot into the gate between the village and the monkey demon kingdom area.

"bismillah.." I also began to move my legs, then a few steps I was in the field with a few monkeys, his gaze sharp by displaying a row of pointed teeth , the monkeys started moving and jumped at me.

"Allahu laa ilaaha illaa huwal hayyul qayyum.." Only the first verse of the monkeys was overheated, I continued to read the verse of chair ,one by one the monkeys dodged as I stepped, and some even disappeared.

Until I finally saw a dark cave visible from the outside, a monkey in the air I ran and entered the cave .

I followed where the monkey went, but only one foot in the mouth of the cave, suddenly small stones fell making me go back outside to avoid it .

"astaghfirullaah.

I tried again by continuing to recite the verse of the chair and some other surah, I resigned myself and asked for protection from Allah SWT .

"bismilbornrahmanirrahim......O Allah protect my "shrewd servant and immediately set my foot back into the cave

Although my intention and determination have been unanimous but it is undeniable that fear is also tucked in my heart, but I strengthen myself if God is always with me.

Slowly the walls of the cave shook and made the little rocks on top of it fall down, the more into the heat the more I guessed ,until when I was in the middle of the cave I saw a monkey with red eyes light up staring at me sharply.

Without the monkey's cue it jumped at me and attacked me

sreeet......

my cheek was scratched by her pointy nails

"ah..sshhttt.." I touched my hot, sore cheek.

"it's so bad to be a monkey, then a monkey too" said I set the monkey that will come back to attack me

"laahaula walaquwwata Illa billah..... Allaahu Akbar's...."

dukes

brukkk

I managed to kick the monkey when the monkey jumped back at me

"sorry yes nyet, you who started it anyway "i said as I watched the monkey lying down after hitting the wall of the cave, there was a sense of pity to see it, but want how else , the monkey was about to attack me again, I defended myself .

I raised both hands in front of my face .

"bismilbornrahmanirrahim..qul a'uzu birabbin nas ,malikin nas ,illahin nas ,min syarril wass wasil khanas ,al lazi yuwaswisu fi sudurin nas ,terminal jinnati wan nas...."

the monkey left me, I stared at the monkey's departure, so I followed the monkey's direction away, I was sure the monkey ran to where grandfather was .

This cave hallway feels very long, I have been walking since then but I also did not get a way out .

Until I saw a white light

"walk towards the light "the voice of someone who seems familiar to me, this voice is the voice of the grandfather I met in the magical village

"thank you cake "my clean

I moved closer to her, the closer the light became clearer, until I reached the door of the cave .

My eyes looked at the scene in front of me

"astaghfirullaahal.....Oh Allah......"
