The Old Tree Dwellers

Go home

After bidding farewell to Bayu and Amir, Madi returned to the house of Kyai Sarwa. Although his body was tired, Madi did not feel it. He was too happy because soon he would go home to meet Aulia, his wife.

:"Kyai, Madi said to go home first."

Kyai Sarwa and kyai Senta smiled, welcoming Madi's helping hand that kissed the back of their hand respectfully. This is one of the habits that have stayed awake since.

"Yes, Madi. Stay careful and alert. Greetings to your family," said Kyai Sarwa, smiling, looking at Madi with compassion.

"Well, Kyai Message Kyai will remember Madi," jaeab Madi, smiled.

"You, too, must remain confident that one day it will surely drive away the inhabitants of the old tree!" kyau Senta said, smiling back, patting Madi on the shoulder.

"Yes, Kyai. Madi will remain the spirit of fostering that belief" said Madi.

Then Kyai Senta gave a paper slide containing hijib readings and instructions on how to use them. Madi was asked to practice it because kyai Senta felt that the enemy that would be faced later would be more dangerous. Especially the hunchback grandmother and granddaughter who is the successor of Nyi Sentari, one of the figures of black magic.

"That is a hijib practice that you can later use when dealing with the Nang or the Hunchback Grandma."

Madi nodded, grateful that Kyai Senta was concerned about the situation he was in. He promised to practice the hijib that Kyai Senta gave him.

"Thank you, Kyai. Madi will remember the message, Kyai." Madi again spoke softly, convincing kyai Senta to immediately practice the hijib that was given.

After they were involved in a long chat, Madi finally said goodbye, coming home not too late afternoon. Monil open tubs that faithfully accompanied him to bring vegetables to the market, had been prepared from earlier.

Madi waved his hand, waving a smile as he began to advance his vehicle leaving toumah kyai Sarwa. Looking at the rearview mirror, he saw Kyai Sarwa and kyai Senta still standing in front of the runway, watching him until he disappeared.

'Alhamdulillah, O Allah. Finally, Your servant can go home', hissed Mafi full of gratitude. Aulia's shadow was already playing in the eye patch, making her impatient to get home soon.

The condition of the road to Aulia's parents' house, still looks the same condition. Along the way, Madi can feel the presence of several invisible creatures. However, they were just there, looking at it and letting it slip. No longer disturbing as the beginning of Madi's arrival the other day.

Madi also did not care about the presence of those who were still gathered and at some point, ready to tempt humans who would be in communion and need their help.

When Madi passed through the streets on the way home, there was an astral creature with a crjam appearance, very tall in stature, looking at him coldly. His unfriendly gaze, harbored a strong desire to destroy him.

Madi actually wanted to bethenti and intended to expel the supernatural creature, but he remembered the message of kyai Sarwa and kyai Senta agarvtak provoked by the presence of figures who wanted his death.

Zikir, the recitation of hijib, read Madi, tried to remove the influence of beings from that other dimension. Iuduk Madi book back goosebumps accompanied by a cold that is so strong enveloped.

'I have to be strong. Can't be off guard one bit!' Madi said, cheering herself on.

Luckily, the creature did not react. Just looking at Madi alone It seemed like they had been ordered by Jaka to wait for the right moment to react again.

Seeing that, Madi accelerated the open tub car he was driving. As soon as it passed, the astral creature was just paying attention.

Along the way, Madi did not experience anything disturbing. The young man deliberately did not tell his wife Aulia his return. He wants to surprise.

The atmosphere in Aulia's old man's house looked silent. It was night when Madi arrived in front of her house.

"Account ...."

"Marine ...." It turned out, his father-in-law who said his regards and immediately opened the door.

"Thank God, it was you who came home, Madi. Previously, I was worried, if there were more supernatural beings who touched."

Madi smiled, understandably because the previous days there was only a supernatural figure who wanted to disturb the tranquility of his household.

"Let's understand, Dad," said Madi. "All right now how is he doing?" Madi asked, continuing.

"Good, Madi. Go to his room. He must be so happy, you're home."

Madi rushed in, heading straight for Aulia's room. This is the event he is waiting for.

Upon entering Aulia's room, Madi sees her wife falling asleep. Looks beautiful, even though only wrapped in negligee. Slowly Madi approached Aulia, touching her shoulders gently.

Aulia flinched, shocked that someone had touched her shoulder. His eyes narrowed, trying to recognize the figure that evoked his sleep.

"Angt .... The truth is Akang, right?" Aulia asked, excited. He immediately woke up, looking at Madi's face, as if in disbelief.

"Yes, Deck. Here, Akang," replied Madi, smiling.

"Alhamdulillah. Akang, already home," said Aulia, smiling knots. Her lips were twitching, showing off her sweet smile.

Then, the two of them shared stories, telling each other their experiences while separated. Aulia's eyes sparkled, looking gently at Madi Finally, arriving also when they met.

"Have I finished helping Kyai Sarwa?" ask Aulia.

"For a while already, Brother. Jaka, the one who had been making noise all this time, stepped away, retreating because one of his colleagues was injured," Madi replied.

"Kang, what Akang said before leaving yesterday was right. There it is, the figure disguised as Akang "

Madi looked at his wife's face. Gently, while stroking his head.

"Thank God, you can get through all this. If not .., I don't know .... I can't imagine it."

"Yes, Kang. Mother had also been possessed by one of the supernatural figures. My sister was very worried at the time. Panicked."

Aulia held tightly to Madi's fingers, a sign that she was indeed very afraid at that time. Madi herself tried to calm Aulia down while continuing to smile so that Aulia, his wife was able to forget the terrible event.

"Now Akang is home. So, sister doesn't have to worry anymore. Later after your condition has made it possible to stay in our house again, we will be there soon.

"Achen, Kang?!" aulia half-screamed. He's really very happy. Madi's wife was already very homesick with the atmosphere of their house near the old tree.

"Rubber! Therefore, your health condition must be good. So it will not be easily affected and entered by the spirits.

Yes, Kang. Sister promised, to stay healthy and not easily affected by the persuasion or incitement of the creatures of the old tree dwellers. So, you can go home soon and stay back there.
