The Rituals

The Stinger

"Why don't you help? Usually, you're good!" ask Sinta again when both of them have been silent for quite a long time after the discussion.

Mika who did not hear Sinta's question too much, turned from the glass to face the theme.

"Huh?" tanyanya, asked Sinta to repeat the question.

Sinta breathed tired and lowered her cell phone.

"Why don't you help Alvaro? You're usually good!" Sinta again spoke her question, and this time it was clearer.

Until Mika says oh and justifies her sitting position.

"So he used a phone sita-sita event anyway! So justin.. Let's know the taste!" Hearing Mika's reply, Sinta could only shake her head.

The taxi they were riding in arrived in front of Mika's house. Sinta got down and helped Mika after she paid the taxi.

And when Mika was opening the padlock of her house, Sinta saw that none of the cars owned by Mika's parents were there.

Usually, if Mika's father or mother exists, there is at least one parked car in the garage or in front of his house.

But seeing that there was no car there, Sinta finally asked Mika.

"Where are you going, Mik?" ask Sinta.

Mika managed to open the gate, and walked to open the door of the house which was quite large.

Mika just glanced towards the garage where the car storage is now empty.

"Go out of town, Ta. Mama's got the same schedule, three-day vacation, and she says tomorrow she's home."

"If Papa has an office business, so can't go home five days later." As Mika explained that, there was a sad look Sinta could catch even though she was not sure if Mika was really sad about it.

"Look, Ta!" Mika opened the door of her house, and invited Sinta to enter the house.

Mika put her bag carelessly on the sofa, then she walked towards the small kitchen near the living room.

Sinta who entered the house Mika looks very relaxed as she is used to, and chose to follow Mika's steps towards the kitchen.

"Lo's fine, isn't it, Mik?" tanya Sinta made sure her best friend did not need to go to the nearest doctor or clinic.

Because Mika had refused his invitation to visit one of the clinics they passed earlier.

Mika who was opening the refrigerator, and looking at the contents nodded her head confidently.

He took out a juice in the refrigerator, and lifted the bottle to show it to Sinta.

"You want juice? Or cold water?" he gave it to Sinta.

The woman walked and saw the contents of the refrigerator, then she walked to take a glass and thrust it at Mika who was only silent to see the movements.

"Just be sure! Hehehe.." Sinta replied in the end, after she saw the contents of Mika's refrigerator.

Mika smiled and poured the juice into a glass proffered by Sinta.

The two walked back to the guest room, and sat down on the sofa.

"Thank you Ta! Sorry ngerepotin." said Mika suddenly, making Sinta who was drinking the juice had choked.

Sinta put her glass on the table, and put her seat closer to Mika who was sitting next to her.

"It's okay, Mik! I'm the one who wants to take you home. So do not hesitate yes." said Sinta to the skinny woman.

Mika nodded, but without her noticing at this moment Sinta was hiding a thin smile.

Inside his head was currently filled with some ideas to judge Mika, because Sinta was basically a ignorant child.

So no matter how serious he was, he must have had the intention to offend his friends.

"Eh Mik... Lo is home alone today, right?" Sinta asked a clear thing that actually does not need to be questioned anymore.

Mika only nodded in astonishment, because Sinta should be able to draw conclusions from the explanation about the departure of the two parents that Mika explained.

"Why Ta?" mika asked, as she looked at the look on Sinta's face that changed drastically in front of her.

Sinta shook her head, as if reluctant to say what she really wanted to say, and made Mika even more curious.

"What the hell Ta! Cepet tell me I. Otherwise, I will scream in front of the class if you are actually the son of a State Intelligence!" Threaten Mika to Sinta.

Both of Sinta's eyes were rounded upon hearing the threat.

"Don't! Nay! Don't be rich, Mik, I'll be rebuked by Papa." Please Sinta, Mika also folded her hands in front of her chest, and waited for the speech that Sinta had said earlier.

"Okay, okay. I was just gonna say be careful with you. You're home alone, right?" Finally Sinta revealed what she was going to say before.

"What's wrong with being home alone, Ta?" Mika who was still curious about the purpose of the word 'Heart' spoken Sinta was finally back to ask the reason.

Sinta brought herself closer to whisper something to Mika, so that by reflex the woman also brought her ears closer to Sinta's lips.

Mika's heart started pounding from fear, she was a tripical person who was timid and panicked so before she heard the reason from Sintapun she had felt quite wary.

"Many people say. If you are alone at home, there must be guests who are not invited." Whispering Sinta, Mika pressed her lips forward, and narrowed her eyes while moving away from Sinta when the love finished with her words.

"A sudden guest must be a lot, Ta. What to be careful of anyway?" mika asked casually, she did not look scared when she heard it.

He was already used to the arrival of guests from his parents, who suddenly came asking both of them while they were away.

"Ihh... Not that guest, Mik!" Refuse Sinta, "But invisible guest!" Keep Sinta again.

Mika held her breath when she heard Sinta's explanation, and she quickly hit the pink-ribboned woman's arm next to her.

"Don't dong, Ta!" Mika protested, Sinta could only laugh loudly and complain of pain due to the blow given by Mika to her.

"Hahaha... You're not afraid, are you, Mik?" asked Sinta who was now rubbing her right arm.

"Ta.. No! I'm not scared!" mika answered who had time to rectify the answer.

She looked doubtful, but that was the purpose of Sinta saying all those creepy things.

He was trying to scare his best friend.

"Oh, thank you!" Sinta said, she drank her juice again and smiled from behind the glass that now covered her mouth.

Sinta hurriedly finished the juice, and put the glass back after it was empty.

"Bah ah.. Mik, I'm home yes!" Pamit Sinta's. Mika who heard the saying of saying goodbye immediately looked up, looking at Sinta who was already standing from her seat.

The woman immediately picked up her conscious bag lying on the sofa.

Mika looks panicked when she knows Sinta will go home, while she still feels parno and fear because of Sinta's previous words.

"Don't eat first?" mika asked, at least she tried to make Sinta stay in her house longer.

But the answer Sinta gave was beyond her expectations.

"No, I'm full." Reject Sinta, Mika fell silent while knowing her efforts were in vain.

Sinta immediately took out her jacket, and used it before she came home.

Mika uses the opportunity to think of a plan that could hinder Sinta's return.

"Mik, I'm going home first. Hye!" Sinta walked to the front of the exit, and Mika who had felt cornered was finally using a style that she thought was the most accurate.

He held his head and complained.

"Ooh.. Ta! Dizziness, Ta!" he said as he closed his eyes and sat down limply on the sofa.

Sinta who knew it was just an act that Mika did to hold back her return, could only try to hold her laughter as hard as she could.

A second later, Sinta pretended to panic and approached Mika who was still acting sick.

"Eh, Mik! It's okay, right?" he asked, he now entered into the game played by his best friend.

"My head hurts a lot, Ta!" mika replied exaggerating what she did not actually feel.

But, again everything was beyond Mika's expectations.

Sinta took a seat beside her and shuffled the contents of her bag, Looking for something Mika does not know.

"It's a good thing I have a dizzy drug that the doctor gave me last month!" Unmistakably.

Mika peeked out from behind her eyes that were not perfectly closed, and found Sinta was taking out a packet of medicine.

"Now, drink it! I've got to get home, Mik!" Sinta stood up again from her seat and now looked at Mika, waiting for the woman to stop with all her acting.

Mika also reluctantly opened her eyes to look at Sinta and nodded.

"Be careful, Ta!" mika said to her best friend. Sinta nodded and as soon as possible got out of Mika's house.

Leaving behind Mika who was sitting in the doldrums, because she was abandoned by him.

Sinta walked towards the highway which was quite far from Mika's house.

During the trip to the highway, Sinta was not constantly laughing, remembering what Mika had done earlier.

"Mika. Mika... You know freak!" Sinta muttered in her laughter.
