The Santet Neighbor Ku

The Little Boy Who Follows Einy

Day after day we passed until we did not feel our house was ready to be inhabited. Just waiting for our readiness to transport the goods. And also see the weather conditions that often rain make the car does not dare to enter the front location of our house. So, still waiting for the right time.

A few days of rain fell creating flooding in our rented yard. The Mbah is seen cleaning his porch from dead larons scattered.

A sight again disturbed me. Today the hair of the Mbah changed color to light blonde. His bangs are long in the tata to the side. As usual he used a tangtop with hotpant shorts. The grandmother had forgotten her age of 60.

I went back inside the house after sweeping. Some animals seem busy transporting themselves and their eggs into the room. There were also cubes crawling on the wall. I quickly took out the baygon spray and eradicated them all.

It's still a good thing I haven't seen since I've lived here. Because other people often said to see cobras beside our house. Understandably, my contract and the altar are far from the neighbors. Besides the grass is still high.

The cold weather made me and Einy just lay in front of the television holding an ambal and wearing a blanket. I looked at the door of the next room that I usually felt was a waiter, today the aura is even more faint than yesterday.

I can imagine him dressed in white, with long hair and looking down. But today I can hardly feel his presence. Could he have left already? I don't know.

My eyes were very sleepy, so I slept while hugging Einy. Einy still watches his favorite cartoons.

"Mommy.want milk."

"You're so sleepy, you made your own, huh? The dodot's already washed up on the dish shelf, just take Einy and fill the milk, okay?"

"Yes, um..."

I vaguely heard Einy make his own milk. Einy was getting smarter and more independent, he understood with my orders and words and then worked on it systematically.

I heard that Einy had finished making milk and was lying down next to me. Mas Jain has also come home from work, so I can sleep well this afternoon.

The rain began to fall back rapidly, as it led me to dreams in the magical world that I often experience.

The city is dead, a subtle human being who walks without direction and always looks down. His face was pale like a corpse, only white without color.

Here again? although it's not too creepy but it's not my world, I have to go back. I kept walking in the dead city looking for a way out. I saw the door, yeah! that's the exit from here!

I ran towards the door and I saw Einy running to play with the subtle creatures. He was like a friend to her, but I tried to tell Einy that he wasn't human. I approached Einy, but Einy ran away.

I kept looking for her, and after finding her I carried Einy. Einy was so aggressive he wanted to get out of my sling. But I kept holding it tight.

Something surprising happened, a little boy approached Einy, he was like taking Einy to play. The boy was a smaller boy under Einy, about 1 year smaller.

I feel like this child is a human child, he seems weak like a human child. I can feel the aura of this child. I tried to get her to come with me before Einy's magical friend came back to see her. I carried Einy and the boy to the door, but we had not yet reached the human world.

Who is the child who suddenly appears in my dreams? I've never dreamed of a child like this before.

Mas Jain who saw me daydreaming reprimanded me.

"Sir, wake up daydreaming." He sat next to me with a cup of coffee.

"I dream again..."

Mas Jain let out a long breath hearing it.

"Don't you think the deck continues, the more often you think the devil is more happy. Mending you pray dzuhur there."

As Jain said, I stood up and stood up.

"I pray first mas."

"Mamah."

"Dear, let's go together."

Einy and I took ablution water together, he followed my every ablution move. After that we prayed together. Einy I bought his own face, so he was always enthusiastic when I saw him praying. If he does not fall asleep, because usually he must be sleepy at this hour.

While mas Jain rarely prayed, but he often reminded me. I don't mind the order, I'm happy. He's like a prayer alarm to me.

After the prayer, I did not feel the chest pounding like before. Am I healed? Thank God, only that sentence can represent my feelings.

*********

During the night, I continued to play the Surahs of the Qur'an through my mobile phone. I dreamt of being in a dead city. And again the dream was repeated this afternoon, it was like a circle de ja vu. When can I get out of this circle?

I forced Einy and pulled the hand of the boy who was with Einy. I'm trying to get them both out of the world of these subtle creatures. The boy looked obedient to me, and strangely again I felt that the boy was my son. Although I was aware, Einy is my only child.

Who is this kid? why is he always present in my dreams as a child that I love so much as I love Einy?

I woke up and was depressed over the dream. Even though the clock still shows at 02:00 in the morning.

I picked up the phone and played the app again, and tried to sleep. And thank God my next dream is ordinary, like an ordinary sleeping flower. Until the morning I woke up from my sleep.
