THE SPIRIT AWAITS THE SCHOOL
Episode 14
The sound of shoe treads clashed on the ceramic floor. Sorta
walking while holding the learning books on his chest. Old woman
those forty years seemed very authoritative being a teacher. He's firm
in subjects, but he was unable to overcome his son's learning problems.
She was actually very depressed when her daughter did not graduate in UAN. It
had a daughter of a dissident whom he could not advise.
“Bu Sorta.!”
Suddenly someone called him. Sorta. stopped
his steps and turning his body saw the person who
greeted him. From far away Hanna ran to Sorta.
Sorta frowned.
“Hanna.?” Mumbled slowly.
“How are you mom?” Ask Hanna.
“Good. What's up?” Soeta asked back.
“Hmm... I just want to chat, Bu.”
“Hayo... You want to tell me about your new crush huh?”
“Not, Mom.. But about this school.”
Sorta was silent for a moment while looking at Hanna's face. It
smile and then say.
“You already know about this school. No need to tell the story anymore. There's nothing to tell anyway. You know that too."
“Mother has been teaching here for a long time?”
“Yes, it's been seven years. Why?”
“Hmm..
right?”
Sorta fell silent, then moved her legs immediately. It
didn't answer Hanna's question. Hanna followed Sorta's steps, but Sorta
still not answering Hanna's question. That five-year-old incident was just an accident for him.
“Bu, I want to know that story.” Said Hanna again.
“I would never want to tell you, Han. The incident was terrible.”
“Bu…. Yesterday I had a very bad incident
frightful. I was at the place where the students committed suicide.”
“What do you mean?” Soeta frowned.
Hanna nodded for a moment. They stopped again at the crossroad
corridor.
“That afternoon when I came out of the bathroom, everyone
foreign-turned. I did not find any other friends. After that I
seeing the seven students coming out of the teacher room with faces full of emotion. My
I didn't know what was going on and suddenly I heard a sound falling from
third floor roof. When I looked down, it turned out that they were the ones who jumped
from there. I saw a lot of blood spills, Bu.”
Sorta sat on a bench located on the edge of the room.
His face looked sad and sad.
“Bu, why?” ask Hanna curiously.
Sorta's eyes glazed over, then he wiped them off quickly.
He did not want to remember the real event.
“You know, I was the one who failed in educating
anak anak. I can't beat my own child's selfishness. Although I
a teacher and taught a lot about science. That education
necessary, but on the other hand I failed.”
Hanna noticed Sorta's face turning sad. It doesn't
know what Sorta means.
“Lantas?” Hanna asked in curiosity.
Lama Sorta was speechless with eyes staring at something. Thought
hovering.
“One of the seven disciples was my son.” Soeta said with a sad face.
Hanna was surprised and widened her eyes.
“Children mother?”
“Yes, my daughter. Natalie. He's still so labile
with his high emotions. I couldn't help him when he didn't graduate
the UN exam. I couldn't do anything, but he was angry and angry
to me. He accused me of being a cruel parent. Though I have already
do much for him. I didn't expect him to do that.”
Sorta's voice turned hoarse.
“Bu. I didn't mean to bring up the problem
that's. I just want to know. The thing is I'm always haunted by those spirits.”
Sorta smiled bitterly. "Oh, it's all over. They're calm
there.” Sorta got up from his seat. “I go to the room first. Ye
sign in. Soon the school bell clang.”
“Iya, Mum.” Hanna nodded her head.
It feels like in a horror movie Hanna experienced. He really did not know what was going on behind
it's all. Hanna stepped her feet as the school bell clanged loudly.
###
Hanna told Anton about the seven curious spirits
one of them is the son of their teacher. The seven students did not pass the final test and vented their emotions by committing suicide. They jumped from the fourth floor at the same time. Blood flooded the school grounds. That doesn't make
their situation improved, on the contrary. Their spirits are not accepted by God
and haunt the students at school.
“I really can't forget that incident, Ton.
I saw for myself how they were freefalling from the roof of the third floor.”
“You better not remember that incident, Han. Now you're haunted by their spirits. You seem to need some refreshment, Han. How about we
watch it?”
“Hmm... Watch what?”
“Watch film. You like watching?”
Hanna nodded.
“It's been a long time since I've watched in the movies, Ton.”
“Ntar home school we watch yuk.”
“Pake school shirt?”
“Let's buy a T-shirt there. No problem, right? We'll watch after all
home school.”
“Hmmm... I called my grandmother first.”
“Okey..”
Hanna rang her phone and contacted her grandmother.
Their conversation was unclear, but there was a smile on Hanna's lips.
“Still, Grandma.” Said later.
“How?”
“Grandma lets me go.”
“Sip.”
“Keyla how?”
“Take it if he wants to come.”
“Hmm.. Yes deh.”
Both smiling.

The school looks empty. Only a few students followed
exkul and some students who play basketball. Mery is seen walking in
basketball court while covering his sweat with a small towel. That girl
he just finished playing basketball with his friends. He sat in a chair while

After that, he headed to the girls bathroom.
“Mer, wait.”.

Body's sweating.
“Meet me yes.”
Her speech.

“Serem

His friend named Nita had already entered the toilet and replaced
his shirt.

roof of the bathroom. The hair touched Mery's head and he was shocked. It soon
looked up and almost screamed when he saw the figure of a pale-faced old woman
horrible looking at him from the bathroom ceiling. Mery hurriedly came out and
took bag. He hasn't changed his clothes yet.
“GGGRRHHH.....
HHHHAAAAGGGGG The sound of hissing frightened Mery.
Her hand
shaking holding the door handle and trying to open the bathroom door. Door
locked up. He panicked and called his best friend.
“Nitaaa... Ye

Nonexistent

his phone rang and he was shocked. He was screaming so scared.
Mery took her phone from inside the bag and saw the incoming call. From Nita.
Mery frowned.
“Halo, Mer... Ye

“You're outrageous

“You mean? Rooms

“I'm again in the room

“I've been home since, Mer. I'm not in the bathroom.”
“You don't

“For God's sake, Mer.
I got picked up by papa after I finished playing basketball.”
Mery mendut
he spit it out and saw the toilet door still closed. Cold sweat is pouring
from his forehead.
“Mer... hello...
Meryi.... You still there?”
“Ii.i..iya,
Nit... Please call Mr. Damsit. I'm locked in the bathroom.”
“Oke.”
Clik. Nita
turned off phone. Mery's skull seemed to grow countless. If that
just called Nita and who's in the toilet? Mery's fear is growing
and took his clothes that were still hanging on the hanger. Bathroom
looks gripping and quiet.
THE CRUTCHES!
Just suddenly
the bathroom door opened and Mr. Damsit appeared. Mery was relieved and
hurriedly took his clothes.
“Thank you,
Sir.” Say it as it passes.
Mery ran
little one out of the school building. Mr. Damsit just shook his head
her head. He watches the bathroom look dreary. In the corner of the bathroom
there was a long-haired figure behind him. Mr. Damsit closed the door
shower and check the other bathroom.
After arriving at
home, Mery went straight into her room. He put down the small bag
slung over his shoulder. He watched his bedroom and went into the room
baths. Mery lit a water faucet and washed his face. Statured girl
tomboy wiped his face with a towel. Suddenly the kinship
a white shadow flashed behind him. Mery choked and quickly
turn around to the back. The shadow does not exist.
Mery out of
shower and sit on his bed. He does not want to be disturbed by
the shadow, but suddenly the window of his room was wide open.
PAUSED...
Mery surprised. It
look at the window closely. The curtains were waving blown
the wind, yet the curtain turned into the figure of someone standing there. Mery
gurgle his saliva. The shadow figure also shows its true form. Figures
someone he already knew.
“Jardi..”
He muttered with wide eyes.
Mery's scared.
His heart was racing hard. The spirit figure looked at him sharply.
Part of his face was covered in blood.
“ARRGGHHH..” Mery
hysterically screaming.
Hurry him out
from his room and ran to see Mama in the living room. Mom saw Mery
fear is astonished.
“Why are you, Mer?
How can a scared person be?”
“Hmm... Naw

“Why your face
so pale?”
“Tadi no cockroaches,
Ma.”
Mama sighed
heavy while shaking his head. Mery began to feel uneasy.
It's ten o'clock at night.
“You slept there,
late night.”
“A minute,
Ma.”
Mom's interesting
his breathing heavily then moved from his seat.
“Mama to room
back then. You don't sleep at night.”
“Iya, Ma.”
My mother passed
and left Mery alone in the living room. Mery noticed the living room
deserted. The atmosphere became gripping when Mery turned off the flaming television.
His sisters are already asleep. Mery bit her lips while watching the space
guest. He got out of his seat and went back to the room.
Mery opened the door
the room hesitated. After the door opened, he saw the window of his room
hermetically sealed. Mery was still scared to go into her room. Slowly he closed the door
room and up to his bed. Mery pulled out a blanket and covered some of it
his body. His eyes were still watching around the room.
“GGRRHH.....
HHHHHAAAAHHGGG.
Just suddenly
there was a terrifying hissing sound. Mery immediately covered her face with a blanket
and closed his eyes. The hisses filled his eardrums until he fell asleep.
