The River House

The River House
XVII. Blanket



The guest room turned out to be spacious enough to be occupied by Inge, Andewi, and Vita. There is a wide bed, also a minimalist sofa located in the corner of the room. A small cupboard and a dispender in the other corner.


Vita put her body on the edge of the bed. Looking at the sky with green tosca shades. His mind again remembered the figure of Erfan who suddenly collapsed at the dining table with a gaping mouth.


Andewi took a glass and poured water from the dispenser. He felt his throat dry and slightly hot.


"Andevi don't drink!" Jerk Inge while glaring. Andewi and Vita turned their heads together, looking at Inge with astonished faces.


"What the hell is it?" Andevi asked, his forehead shriveled.


"Maybe there's no poison in that water?" Inge asked back.


Andewi just shook his head slowly, then downed a glass of water in his hand.


"Ngee, please. Don't be a parnoan" Vita half-stomped.


"Are you not afraid of death?" Tanya Inge looked worried.


"Now all we have to do is be vigilant. Beware and parno is different. Parno or excessive worry will even make you wrong in acting. Because your mind is not clear" Vita advised.


"Gaes, can't I trust you?" Andevi asked arriving.


"Huh? Whatchu mean?" Vita.


"Not one of you has poisoned Erfan?" Andevi looked at his two friends in turn.


"Huh? This crazy guy!" Jerky Vita.


"You're the Vit who said, if we all have a motive to harm Erfan. And I realized very well, in the circle of our friendship, among the five of us is indeed Erfan the most jerk," Andewi ruffled his waist.


"Yes, but we've known each other for a long time. Surely you have already memorized, none of us have lost their minds to the point of poisoning Erfan to death," Vita sighed.


"What about you, Nge?" Andewi turned to look at Inge who was now sitting on the sofa.


"Are you not so humiliated. Made a trophy for playboy men like Erfan," continued Andewi.


"Yes, honestly there's a corner of my heart that's happy he's dead. But you know me, right? Toying with one such man, would not be able to bring me down. Today I was hurt by one man, then tomorrow ten men will come to me begging me to be with me" Inge smiled cynically.


"Including that brondong?" Vita blinked her eyes.


"Huh? Brondong's? Whatchu mean?" Unknowing Andewi asks for an explanation.


"You are too insensitive Goddess. You didn't know this playgirl was just getting young sap?" Vita chuckles. The atmosphere melted a little this time. Andewi shook quickly.


"Inge has just given Erwin valuable lessons," Vita smiled. Inge laughed satisfiedly.


"Huh? It could be, you crazy!" Andewi shook his head.


"We're back to the topic of Erfan. Who do you think poisoned Erfan?" Vita half whispered. The straight-haired woman looked the most curious compared to her other two friends.


"Anggun is impossible. He's soft-hearted, kills a mosquito he won't be able to" Inge said.


"Origin?" Vita and Andevi exchanged glances simultaneously.


"To know, the woman whom Ali liked from the first semester was conquered by Erfan. Even crazier, Erfan actually knew Ali's feelings. I don't know what Erfan's dating that woman for. And their relationship was very short for no more than a month," Andewi sighed.


"Emm, I don't know if this is true or not. But, when I was close to Erfan, he told me. If he deliberately snatched the woman from Ali to show that the woman was matre and not good for Ali," Inge recalled.


"really? Or is it just the speech of a land crocodile in search of sympathy?" Ask Vita cynically.


"Well Erfan was bad as a couple, but I don't think he was that bad at Ali, his best friend from the beginning of college until now. It was possible that Erfan wasn't lying," Inge shrugged both of his shoulders at the same time.


"Stop talking about Erfan. He's already dead. This place became somber because of the topic of our conversation," Andewi's sergeant arrived.


"I don't feel good after all. We are in the middle of the forest, and access to this place he said covered in landslides. It means we are isolated. Plus one of our friends is dead. The story feels like in a horror movie," Vita rubbed her goosebumps. Fine fur fur was seen standing on her smooth skin.


"Gaes, listen to me!" Inge suddenly placed an index finger on his lips, diverting the conversation.


"From earlier the TV sound sounded very loud, it was very quiet at this time. Is it possible that Ali's asleep?" Inge.


"It's ten o'clock. Maybe Ali is sleepy" said Vita.


"Pity is Ali. Can't get a room, and must sleep in front of the TV with this cold air. Does he have a blanket?" Ask Andevi.


"So the hell I saw in the front room of the TV there were only two small pillows," Vita recalled.


"Love him a blanket. It's not funny if he gets in the wind. How do we go home try if he doesn't exist. Inge and I can't ride the trail. Cook us up to bonceng three kayak cabe cabean," Andewi chuckled a little.


Inge smiled holding back a laugh. He picked up a blanket lying in the corner of the bed.


"Get me a blanket for Ali" Inge asked.


"You alone" said Andewi.


"Yuk Vit," Inge turned to whining at Vita.


"I don't dare, it's a shame. The lights were turned off, it was dark Vitt," Inge continued.


"Ah, come on," Vita finally relented.


Inge and Vita left the room. And it's true that the front room is really dark. Only the highlight of the lamp from the top floor that was dim gave a little illumination. Inge and Vita paused for a moment, gnawing, getting used to her eyes looking in the darkness.


They both walked in the living room. It is really quiet and quiet. Slow footsteps were heard echoing, further adding to the frightening impression.


Arriving at the family room, the TV is no longer on. While in front of the TV, it appears someone is sleeping on a mattress floor. The figure used a thick blanket all over his body even covering part of his head.


"Well, couple! I already have a blanket!" Groused Vita.


"Just Vit, let Ali rest" Inge asked. He pulls Vita's arm and takes her back to the room. The blanket that was originally intended to be given to Ali, in the end brought Inge back.


"Lhoh? Where's Andewi?" Vita asked in shock.


When the two of them reached the room, it turned out that Andevi was no longer there. Andewi's missing.
