TRAPPED IN THE MAYIT VALLEY

CHAPTER 22. WETCLOTHES

My left hand was ready to open the door of the house, but I was still in doubt, not doubting why, but I was not ready to see anything undue.

But I need to know what's out there….

The door slot that was large and made of wood I lifted the land slowly without making any sound at all.

I have my friends who line up like pindang fish..great! They still mike very soundly.

I pulled the door leaf inside. The cold air coming from outside entered the ground slowly.

“Brrr... the air outside means very cold..”.

Slowly the land door of the house is open. I peek from the gap of the open door.. outside it is very dark, drizzle and fog…. The fog is still hanging, the fog that remains the same as the one from last night we were here to tonight.

I open wider.. Cold air and a little fog started to enter the house.. The wider the door opens.

….ZAAAAP!....

“AAAARRRGHHHHHHW….JANC****k!!!” I slammed the door until it closed hard. Then I ran towards my friends who were still sleeping.

“Woiii Will.what's up rec!” ask Tifano..

All my sleeping friends woke up. They were all still half conscious, and were forced to get up because of the sound of the door I slammed earlier.

“C*k weird ae koen iku Wil” said Bondet who is in a sitting position and eyes are still seeped.

“What did Wil.. mas Wildan see something out there?” ask Novi

“I..Iya Nov..”

“Already.already in Wildan, remember where we are, and in what place, so do not do something we should normally do in our homes. Think here something we used to do that posed a risk” Ivon said

“Better we do nothing here, we just sleep until morning, and do not be far from us.”

“If anyone wants to pee it is better to hold, or if it is not strong input to the bottle of mineral water that each of you carry” said Ivon

“Eh sorry Von if we and Novi can put our urine in the bottle.. What about Von?”

“Hehehe quiet mas Bondet, Ivon tetep can urinate in the bottle also kok hihih”

“Eh sorry Von, are you the same as Novi?”

“That's what the hell Bondet mas, it's not important deh” said Novi

“Hehehe we are the same as human beings, and Ivon can adjust the situation like this, and to urinate from yesterday will have Ivon done, all safe and comfortable hihihi” replied Ivon

I just listened to Bondet's unimportant talk with Ivon.. Bondet seems to be suspicious of Ivon's gender.. It's not all that important.

What I saw was more important.

A white grinning face shadow that came suddenly and right in front of my face.. He came like lightning, very quickly appeared, and then disappeared again!

“Mas Wil, don't daydream, let's go to sleep and remember tomorrow we have to find a way out of here” said Ivon who somehow tonight is very sweet way to smile at me

“Eh mas Wil.. here near Novi mas... Novi has not been a bulge for years Wildan” said Novi while embracing me

“C*k Nov... as long as you are still mustachioed and intersected by state defense soldiers, there are no hugs or hugs first Nov”

The rest of the night I did not sleep at all, I still remember the horrible, grinning face that had appeared like lightning, though only fleeting and very fast, but I still remember that terrible face.

White face with disheveled hair, bulging eyes, open mouth and grinning. Not the face of Mr. Sapudi or Mr. Min…

Slowly I finally got to sleep after trying to throw away my memories of the face I saw outside.

*****

“AYO WAKE.. WAKING UP..  IT'S MORNING!” ivon's voice blared in the room of this house that could not be said to be big.

“Come on Wildan, it's morning, we have to find a way to get out of here as soon as possible” Ivon continued

This room was warmer than last night, when I saw the fireplace, it turned out that the flame was bigger than last night, maybe the Ivon who added firewood to the furnace.

Novi was standing in the doorway, as if he was going to open the door but hesitated. Bondet and Tifano sit cross-legged with the condition still sleepy.

“Come finish her used clothes. We return to the room again, this morning if we can find cassava trees, we eat cassava burn first” said Ivon who turned out to be more deft than me and others.

The situation outside is no longer dark. Seen from the roof of the house that partly perforated to the smoke of the cooking furnace, and also as lighting in this house.

We fold these old clothes as much as possible and we will return them to the room of the house that is glittering.

“Nov, please open the net, my hand will bring clothes” said Tifano

“Halah said I was afraid of Tif hehehe, afraid of the same in the room was kan” replied Novi

“Hehehe iyo Nov. Let's anter me in and put this outfit..”.

Novi walked ahead of Tifano who was carrying some of the clothes we were wearing for bedding, Bondet was also carrying the same clothes as Tifano.

“Von.. borrow your flashlight Von.. This room is dark once” said Novi who has opened the room mosquito net

“Huffff this room is smelly yes Nov. different from yesterday night.. now this room smells fishy yes hehehe” said Tifano.

Ivon came to Novi and Tifano, then shone his flashlight around the back room…

I followed Ivon to the room, because I was curious about the last night noises coming from this room.

“Yes... it's no wet clothes Nov, is this room leaking yes roof.” said Ivon while shining a flashlight into the room

“Eh is not wet because the leaking roof is Von, the other proof is dry, only the clothes are wet.” replied Novi.

Ivon shone on a long-sleeved boxed garment that was soaking wet…. I saw the other clothes, nothing wet, everything dry and nothing wet.

I looked carefully at the flannel-type clothes box that was wet and there was a little dirt stains.

Vick*k.. I think I'm familiar with this flannel dress…..

“Eh Von. try to brighten the corner there it”

“Which is Wil?” ask Ivon

“Which there is hair piling up it Von. try to shine there Von”.

The bright Ivon police flashlight illuminated a pile of hair that was either whose hair or from where.

In the top pile of hair there is a haircut that is still wet too…

“It was Von.. But the other one is dry, Von”

“Mas Wil, i.that's hair b..new mas…. Novi really know which hair is old and which new is cut from the head of the mas” said Novi with fear
