The Three Chosen

2. Their Dialogue

After hearing Shera's story of the crocodile, Hanako and her twins, Faiq, are seen

he meets Hanako in the room occupied by the Efliya family.

“ Assalamualaikum, Hanako..” Faiq said while knocking on the door.

“ Wa aleikumsalam. Hanako again takes a bath Bang...,” Efliya said from behind the door.

“ Oh that. Ntar if you have asked me to find Abang ya El..,” said Faiq.

“ What's Bang. What about ghosts again..?” efliya asked worriedly.

“ Not El...,” said Faiq lying with a smile.

“ Gapapa Bang, be honest. Brother Heru has said everything is the same I was.” said Efliya.

“ Yes, Brother is honest yes. Mama said to Kak Shera, The children squirm the crocodile-headed man earlier.

That's why I want to share Hanako. Actually it could be the same brother nanya the twins, but unfortunately Abang ga understand the talk of the two toddlers.

Efliya laughed and heard Faiq's words. Even Efliya had to hold his stomach because it continued

laughingly.

“ Ha ha ha. Yes, also Bang. Dear brother chat with the twins using sign language.”, Efliya said with a laugh.

“ Not El sign language, but planet language. I have this, he answered it. I said A, they said C. Hadeehh when his name is that..,” said Faiq while shaking his head greeted Efliya laugh.

Hearing the laughter of Efliya and Faiq made Hanako who had just come out of the bathroom confused. Hanako looked at Efliya and Faiq who were standing in the doorway of the room alternately.

“ Mother with Papa ngetawain what the hell.?” ask the towel-clad Hanako.

“ Uh, it's done, son. Papa wait outside ya...” said Faiq while waving his hand.

“ Yes Pa...,” Hanako said while nodding.

Then Efliya helped Hanako put on her clothes and comb her hair. While combing Hanako's hair, Efliya ventured to ask.

“ Mmm, just like Hanako Iyaz and Izar squirm what was earlier.?” asked Efliya gently.

“ See what, many dong Bun. Here the view is good..,” said Hanako lugu.

“ That Mother also know Darling. Mommy means, Hanako saw something that was not ordinary yes earlier.?” efliya asked carefully.

“ Which is not ordinary is what Mother.?” ask Hanako doesn't understand.

“ Something you shouldn't.  For example coconut trees kok fruit mango or frog kok fly.” efliya sahut make suppositions.

“ Oooh the. Yes Bun, I saw a ghost sighting on the beach earlier.” Hanako said as she stared fixedly at Efliya through the reflection of the mirror on the dresser.

“ What ghost...?” efliya asked curiously.

“ Big ghost, dress equally her hair is messy. But his face was seige because his big eyes were rich in tennis balls and his mouth was also torn and bloody. His tongue is also long sticking out like Bun..,” said Hanako relaxed.

Efliya was surprised to hear Hanako's words. He could not imagine if he was the one who had to see that figure.

Efliya also swallowed his saliva with difficulty.

“ You ain't scared Darling..?” efliya asked carefully.

“ Ga Bun's. Just surprised. I'll never see more seremes than the previous Bun..” Hanako said quickly.

Efliya looked shocked. He felt remiss in taking care of Hanako because he never knew how much

the ghost sighting Hanako had seen all this time. Efliya also felt sad and almost cried as she looked at Hanako who stepped out of the room to meet Faiq.

Faiq appears to be playing with his two children in the living room. He was holding Izar in

his back, while behind him Iyaz limped after him while laughing.

Shera who was there also laughed while continuing to encourage Iyaz to continue chasing after father and

his twin sister.

“ Come on son, don't want to miss..” said Shera while clapping.

“ Father..., Father...,” call Iyaz while laughing.

“ Yes, let's go after dad. If you can, replace the Iyaz that Daddy carried deh...,” said Faiq.

“ I also want to be carried with Papa..” said Hanako suddenly.

Faiq deliberately stopped his run for Iyaz to get it. After that he turned to Hanako who looked sullen because she was envious to see Izar in her arms.  Then Shera helped lower Izar from Faiq's back followed by Iyaz who rose quickly to Faiq's back.

“ This is My Father, Cici ga by...” said Iyaz with his lisp voice while staring fixed Hanako.

Iyaz and Izar used to call Hanako Cici according to Faiq's direction, who felt Hanako's name resembled a Japanese or Korean name.

“ Replace dong, I also want..” said Hanako did not want to lose.

Realizing that Iyaz had already climbed onto his back, Faiq immediately ran away while carrying Iyaz on his back. At

behind him Izar and Hanako ran chasing while laughing. Soon Hanako, who was larger than Izar, reached Faiq. Iyaz screams as Faiq stops because ‘caught’ by

Hanako's.

“ Haa, kaan..!” hanako exclaims happily while holding the end of Faiq's back shirt.

“ Cici wishan, Father Yaz..,” said Izar while patting Hanako's hand.

Apparently Izar wanted to help release Iyaz and his father from Hanako's clutches. Seeing that thing

makes Shera laugh. The other family members also laughed at the funny behavior of Izar who was scolding Hanako. While Hanako looks reluctant to release Faiq.

“ Yee, mamam...,” said Iyaz who immediately moved down from his father's back to make a little Faiq

surprised and reflexes lowered his body to make it easier for Iyaz to go down.

Hanako who was still standing behind Faiq seemed to be quick to help Iyaz down from Faiq's back. Hanako's Attitude

it made all the adults in the room smile with admiration. After coming down from the back of the father assisted Hanako, Iyaz seemed to smile towards Hanako. Then Iyaz took Izar's hand and invited him to go to meet Shera who was preparing lunch for them in the kitchen.

Then Faiq asked Hanako to speak heart to heart on the side porch. Faiq immediately asked about the crocodile

what Hanako saw earlier. Hanako answered Faiq's question straightforwardly and quickly.

“ Does the crocodile say something Cici..?” ask Faiq.

“ He does not talk to me Pa, but the same Iyaz and Izar...,” said Hanako steady.

“ Time...?” asked Faiq because he felt it would not be easy to pry the information of his two new child heroes

learn to talk that.

“ Why, Papa will not be able to do it yes the same Iyaz and Izar..,” led Hanako while laughing.

Faiq grabbed Hanako into his arms while kissing Hanako's forehead with anxiety.

“ So you know Papa yes..,” said Faiq while pinching Hanako's cheek.

“ Yes Pa. Ntar I help Papa deh same Iyaz and Izar, how about..?” tanya Hanako offers

selves.

“ May deh...,” said Faiq resigned because he did have difficulty understanding the language of his twins at this time.

Hanako calls Iyaz and izar who will sit in the living room for lunch.

“ Yes, Izar, here.!” call Hanako while waving her hand towards the twins.

The twins were seen stepping hand in hand towards Hanako and the father. Then Iyaz and Izar sat side by side on the rattan sofa on the terrace. Then there was an adorable dialogue between Hanako and the twins that made Faiq amazed.

“ Yes, Izar had seen there are crocodiles on the beach there.” Hanako said.

“ Yes...,” say Iyaz and Izar together while nodding.

“ Try to tell Papa how it looks..,” pinta Hanako.

“ Aya ala olang no tata uwa..,” sahut Izar fast.

“ Adan api awa-awa ucu..,” added Iyaz while laughing.

Faiq was amazed to see Hanako's interaction with her two children. Faiq understood why his two children were comfortable playing with Hanako. Apparently Hanako understands the lisp of the twins. That was evident when Hanako occasionally laughed while answering the twins' words. While Shera seemed to smile at the funny behavior of three children in front of him.

“ What said..?” ask Faiq curiously.

“ My dad didn't know..?” ask Shera.

“ Ga, so Dad asked Hanako to help make him a translator. Emang Mommy understands...?” ask Faiq.

“ Knows doonngg, I'm the Mother..,” says Shera proud to make Faiq smile.

“ Bunda emang great...,” praise Faiq while giving a thumbs up.

“ I'm also great Pa...” said Hanako did not want to lose.

“ Yes, Hanako is great. Then the crocodile said what is the same Iyaz and Izar..?” ask Faiq.

“ Oh it. If Izar said, the crocodile was just acquaintance. But if said Iyaz, the crocodile ngajak they play to his house.” said Hanako while looking closely at his two cousins who were eating it.

“ To his house, where..?” ask Faiq again.

“ Ga tau. Kan Iyaz will not come with him.” Hanako said.

Faiq and Shera stared at each other for a moment. There was anxiety on Shera's face and Faiq immediately shook his head in response that he would not let their two children be taken away by the crocodile's delicate form. Shera nodded and went back to feeding the twins.

Soon Hanako is seen running towards her parents leaving Faiq's family on the side porch.

\=====

That night Faiq deliberately stood in front of the villa while staring at the beach as if waiting for someone or

something's. Faiq indeed hopes to ‘bicara’ with a crocodile-headed human who has met Hanako and her two twins.

After a long wait, finally the creature awaited came and greeted Faiq.

“ What do you want..?” ask Faiq to the point.

“ Ga No. I just want to be friends with them.” said the creature.

“ Tell me your true intentions..!” faiq said ferociously.

The creature in the form of a human-headed crocodile seemed silent for a moment. He took a deep breath before answering Faiq's question.

“ I need their help. Because only they can help.

“ Not now, they are still too small. Give them time. When the time comes, God willing I will

escort them to meet you later..,” said Faiq.

“ Good, I agree. Thank you...,” said the creature that Faiq subscribed to.

A moment later the subtle creature in the form of a human-headed crocodile also went from before Faiq accompanied by Faiq's sharp gaze that always seemed alert.

But when he was about to step back into the villa, Faiq saw there was 'something' watching him from behind a coconut tree. Faiq hopes that something he believes to be supernatural will not hurt Hanako and her two children later.
