The Old Tree Dwellers

Time to Go Home

Since dawn, Aulia and Madi have been busy getting ready, packing back to their house which is about 2 hours away.

"Lia, don't forget to have breakfast before you go home!" Aulia's mother reminded Aulia. With a new gestational age of several months, of course, quite vulnerable.

"Yes, Mom. Lia must be having breakfast first," said Aulia softly, smiling widely. His face looks so fresh this morning.

"Bring your lunch, too, later. I cooked quite a lot!" Aulia's mother said. Aulia this time just nodded, thanking her for her mother's attention.

A warm embrace was given by the mother as Aulia said goodbye, asking for her blessing to return home

"Be careful on the road, Lia, Madi," said Aulia's mother, while letting go of the two of them.

"Yes, Mom. We will always be careful. I don't need to worry," jaeab Madi and Aukia, waved and prevailed from there.

"Kang, how's our house doing now?" Aulia asked while on the trip, filling the void reduced saturation.

"House's clean now, brother. Yesterday, it looked dusty and dirty."

Aulia smiled at Madi's reply, throwing her pandabgan out the window. It seems like he has not been on this road for a long time. Aulia really missed the atmosphere in her residence.

"How about the old tree dweller, Kang. Are they still there?" Again Aulia asked Despite missing their home, but there was still a little fear of sneaking in her heart.

"They're still there, brother. Yesterday, when Akang cleared the house, they looked less happy with Akang's presence."

"But it's okay, if we go home and stay back there?" Aulia's voice trembled slightly, a terrified sigh that suddenly ambushed.

"Just calm down, brother. I'll try to prevent their interference."

Aulia nodded, spitting out a long breath, feeling relieved when she heard her husband's words earlier. Throughout the rest of the journey, Aulia was speechless. He leaned his head against the car seat, hearing the murotal twisting from the tapel. The feeling of calm continued to flow, throwing away the anxiety and fear that had approached.

Every now and then Aulia's head swayed, enduring the drowsiness. Although the travel time only takes about two hours, Aulia quite enjoyed it.

When she arrived home, Aulia smiled broadly. They finally returned home after some time. Aulia's eye rays exuded joy. I can't wait to get inside the house.

"Kang, nothing has changed, huh, with our house?" aulia said, pleased.

"Yes, Brother. Akang had cleaned and tidied it all up yesterday" replied Madi.

"Bismillah, let's go in, brother!" Madi then took his wife Aulia, into the house. Aulia nodded. Just like the first time entering this house, the young woman felt an overwhelming sensation. The pleasure of having a home.

"Am sure tired huh, clean this house alone Kenarin?"

"Slightly, Sister. It's all so that Sister feels comfortable because the house is clean."

"Thank you, Kang."

Madi smiled cheerfully, hearing a thank you from his wife. Aching and achieved due to cleaning the house yesterday no longer feel it.

"Yes, Kang. Sister will rest for a while, after that, help Akang to tidy up the equipment in the kitchen.

Madi smiled, stepped into the corner of the room, reviving the murotalb who was there. They must continue to create a feel that contains a positive aura so that the negative air emitted from the old tree can be pushed aside.

When entering the kitchen, Madi was confronted by the spirit of the woman who had been living in her house.

"Please complete my death, sir. I don't want to be stuck here. It's supposed to be, I'm in nature there, without having to be here."

The spirit of the woman begged Madi's mercy to be free from the bondage that made her a victim of pesugilikan by someone who turned out to be the love of her own relatives. Madi, sighing, thought of finding a way so that the spirit could return to the real world. Not running like this.

"alright. Later, I'll try. Better still, Ma'am here, don't go anywhere!"

The spirit is smiling. Nodding felt very grateful jarena Madi was willing to help him. After that, the spirit disappeared from the presence of Madi, hiding between the walls of the kitchen white.

"Nrank ...." Call Aulia, make Madi aware.

"The one in the kitchen, Dik," said Madi.

"Oh .., Akang in the kitchen. Bantuin sister yes, ngerapiin goods, as well as put our lunch stock."

Madi nods. Then the young couple began busy arranging and tidying up the house which they had left long enough.

Towards the magrib, as usual when they lived there first, murotal kept them turning. They are both ready with water and prayer equipment. The recitation of remembrance continues to be offered by Madi until the time when the azan magrib reverberated.

The atmosphere outside the house was getting dark, when Madi and Aulia after the magrib prayer. Cold air reaches the bone. The drizzle slowly began to descend. This is an atmosphere that is very liked by invisible creatures, such as the inhabitants of the old tree.

"Kang, do you think the air is getting colder?"

"Yes, Brother. Akang, feel it too, really. Don't worry, we can handle this cold. Believe and believe!"

Madi encouraged Aulia, so as not to be afflicted by fear. It is natural, because it has been repeatedly magical creatures that inhabit the old tree, disturbing them.

"Yes, Kang. Brother knows. I can certainly overcome the disturbance of the creatures."

Madi nodded slowly, revealing a smile on her face. Meanwhile, he continued to recite, fortifying himself and the house.

From magrib prayers to isha prayers, there has been no real disturbance from the creatures. Towards midnight, the creatures dared to mutcul, harassing the couple. The air just gets colder. All that was heard was the sound of crickets and other night animals.

Aulia was still sound asleep. He didn't realize there was a pair of hands, suddenly trying to strangle his neck. A pair of hairy hands with pointy nails on each finger. Madi who was awake from earlier, a bunch hit that hand, with a hijib.

The owner of the hand, suddenly pulled and away from Aulia. Madi, getting out of bed, makes some sort of magical boundary and chases the creature into the living room. Apparently, this creature can penetrate the magical fortress that had been made by Madi. Maybe, because it has not been thickened, so that supernatural beings can penetrate it.

"Who are you, you bullies?" ask Madi, yell.

"I'm one of them!" answer sangar. His reddened eyes bore a grudge, ready to attack Madi.
