THE NOURA VAN KEMMERS

The Strangeness of Mbak Siti

"eeh, dislodged..." Oh my God, I was surprised. I guess who. Sorry so focused, I was not aware that someone called me," Mbak Siti looked excited.

"Mbak Siti, why is it that midnight looks out the window? What the hell are you looking at?" my many.

"Anu....I was angry Mas. So I open the kitchen window, get some wind," she replied nervously.

Search for the wind but how could his facial expression be so horrible? His eyes looked as if he was observing something seriously. Looks like I have to investigate it, this can't be allowed.

"I'm sorry, Mas," in a hurry Mbak Siti immediately passed from before me. I became more curious. I approached the window and began to look around the side courtyard. There's nothing. What did Siti see? Is it possible that he saw an invisible figure in this house? suddenly I was shivering.

I went back to my room too. Where's Noura? he disappeared from my room. Aah, maybe he just came out for a while. As Noura said the other day, Siti was strange and should be suspected. I turned off the lights and started closing my eyes.

"I've been watching him Bayu. The guts are always weird. It was as if he was looking for something in this house. And he can see me. Several times he tried to interact with me, but I always tried to avoid. I felt uncomfortable looking at her like there was a flash of energy encircling her body every time she tried to get close to me" Noura said.

"So, can he see you?" I asked Noura.

Noura nodded. This afternoon she accompanied me sitting on the side porch porch. The afternoon wind blew against her hair. He repeatedly tidied his hair. The look on his face made me more anxious. She's very, very pretty.

"How's your job?" tanyakanya.

"hasn't started. Next semester I started teaching. You miss school, right? do you want another school?"I tried to cut him.

"Hmmm, after AMS, I have no plans to continue my education. I'm not as smart as Sophia's diligent studying. Honestly, I don't like to study. I'd rather help Papa out on the farm or paint or do other things that I love. I also don't know what my life is about. I have no ideals. I don't know what I'm gonna be." Noura answered with a glaring look.

"Papa and Mama strongly supported Sophia's desire to become a doctor. They had already prepared enough money for Sophia's education expenses. Especially from my family, no one is a doctor. It would certainly be very proud if Sophia managed to become a doctor. And my brother Benjamin, Papa has prepared to continue his efforts. Papa sees there is talent in Benjamin in business. Papa is determined to send Benjamin to Netherland to college."

"Your question is exactly like my mother's. My mom used to scold me. Because in the eyes of Mama, I am the most relaxed child, lazy to learn and difficult to manage. Sometimes I'm annoyed because Mama always compares me to Sophia and Benjamin."

"But Papa is the opposite. Papa hardly ever scolded me. Papa seemed to understand my weakness, if I was less intelligent in the field of study, I could not be forced to study. Papa always cheered me on. He always said that someday I will find my talent. I will definitely be a proud child," the corner of Noura's eyes began to glaze over.

"I'm sorry, you must be so sad to tell me more about your family. Although to be honest, I really want to know," I said.

"It's okay. I'm glad to tell you," replied Noura slowly.

"We're back to the topic about Ms. Siti. I'm getting curious. We'll investigate yuk! I want to know what he wants to look for in this house" I said.

"Tomorrow Friday night kliwon. We'll see what he does at night. I saw him walk around the backyard a few times on Friday night" Noura said.

"Woody, where are you, Bay?" my mother's voice surprised me. His so loud cry sounded clearly all the way to the side porch. When I turned my head, my eyes caught a figure that seemed to be watching me from a distance. His posture is very familiar to me. Skinny and tall looming. Who else if not Siti.

Why else is he there? my question is in my heart. I sat alone with Noura on the side porch. And Ms. Siti was watching us from the corner of the clothesline. He stood there while occasionally busy squeezing a mop. Duh, why could I not realize that Mbak Siti was there and noticed us?

Seriate.
