Triangle (Driehoek)

Matchmaking & Shadow Curse

Malamannya..

After Maghrib prayer. Still wearing a sarong, Aris sat on the bed looking through the name list on her phone's contact menu. His papa number is seen among a row of other names there.

There was a curious tickle in his mind about what happened last afternoon, about a forbidden place that turned out to be no joke.

Still imagined how they ran like crazy leaving the submerged housing. Also still attached to his memory as they crossed the bottom edge and he accidentally saw the same fish, fish that sucked blood Rudi was swimming casually meandering on the surface of the water. It seemed like only he was aware of that, whereas Rudi and Doni were so panicked that he did not notice at all.

It was clearly seen by the body of the fish that lived bones swimming on the surface of the bottom accompanied those who ran. Remembering that feathers back on its feet.

Fortunately Bik Isah and Novi were in the tea garden when they arrived home, so they did not have to have trouble giving an explanation about Rudi's condition and about their exploration into the forbidden area.

At the moment when his aunt Aris was back home with Novi, Rudi had changed clothes and was resting. While Aris and Doni sat in the living room to calm down. They only told Bik Isah and Novi that Rudi's hand was hit by a hook and was now resting because of fatigue.

Aris still looked at the phone in hand, thinking, looking for the right sentence in order to get information about the "abandoned village" from her papa without having to tell what they had actually experienced.

"Tok. tok. tok.." there was a knock on the door, breaking Aris' concentration.

"Y.Yes? "His mouth stammered at the knock on the door.

"Sister Aris, Novi enter yes, "tell meek voice. Before Aris could say anything the door had opened and Novi's face appeared with her sweet smile, the girl entered the room and immediately sat down next to Aris.

Aris looked at Novi, currently wearing a dark blue headscarf and a light blue long-handed shirt paired with a black skirt, looking completely harmonious, beautiful.

"This child has not changed in the least since we were children, like to hide, "in Aris.

"If you know aunt, you will get reprimanded for carelessly entering the room of men." said Aris.

Aris rebuked because it was ethics, also one thing that aunt had reminded them of. Of course as a good brother he must say, even if asked to his heart actually he is also no problem, after all Novi is a brother to him.

Yes since Novi SMU Bik Isah has started to remind Aris and Novi that although they are very familiar but there are things that they can no longer do together like in childhood.

Especially now that Novi is 19 years old while Aris is 22 years old, has really matured.

"Where men? It's just Aris doang, " replied Novi as usual, then turned to look at the phone in Aris's hand.

"You call me, why don't you call me right away? "Ask Novi so look at the cell phone.

"It was just something, but I thought let papa rest, it wasn't too important that I wanted to say, "under Aris.

"Eh, tell om don't forget to come here because another week Novi birthday, brother also don't forget yes, "he said cheerfully.

"Yes there is no way you forget dong, besides you are still here when you have a birthday, but later you also tell papa about it, who knows he forgot, "answered Aris.

"O yaudah, thank you my sister who ca'em and well, by the way dinner is ready, invite your sister's friends to come eat together, "novi then stood up and looked at Aris' nose before it passed.

After Novi left the room, Aris got up and put on his trousers. After that he knocked on the door of Doni's room as well as Rudi to invite the two friends to join the dining room so they can eat together.

Rudi's current condition was already much better than before, he was currently wearing a collared blue T-shirt. His hair is tied back, tight, so that on the front it looks climsy. A white bandage with a little red spots on the palm of the hand. Last afternoon when he arrived at the wound house they have been cleaned and given antiseptic.

Upon the arrival of the three friends in the dining room, it looks like Isah is already sitting facing the dining table. With a friendly smile she invites Aris and her two friends to sit in the chair provided, facing the aunt's seat.

The size of the dining table in this house is quite large, made of shiny teak wood, legs and carved edges. This elongated table surrounded by 8 chairs is also made of carved teak wood.

Novi was seen helping bik Mirah, a maid in this house serving food and also eating utensils. Besides being beautiful this girl is also very dexterous and always reliable, it is also what makes her a darling in this small family. Passing by he smiled at Aris, Aris replied with a nod of her head.

"Sister, Novi has cooked for brother on the advice of brother Doni, "said Novi while thrusting a small plate in front of Rudi.

Rudi who was filling rice into his plate stared at what Novi was proposing and was astonished, while Doni giggled amusedly. Aris looked inside the plate and then grinned, because in the small plate that Novi thrust there was only one small fish, a small fish, the fish that succeeded in Rudi hook in the early spot and all day was bagged Doni.

Novi looked at the three young men alternately with puzzled looks, but seeing the expression of Doni and Aris he came to smile.

After all the food on the table, they started to eat casually. Bik Isah while eating tells about everyday life in the garden.

After a short conversation with Novi asked a few things and Bik Isah turned his eyes to Rudi.

"It's hard, ma'am, "Rudi replied. Currently he eats with a spoon, considering his injured right hand must be sore when used to bribe food.

While Doni, prefers not to use a spoon because he thinks the size of the spoon is small, so the effect is like eating but not really so he always reasoned.

Rudi continued eating in silence.

"Sister Rudi was originally quiet, yes, not kayaking in medsos? "Ask Novi.

Rudi coughed then glanced around.

"Lha are you friends at Medsos? "Ask Aris.

Novi was about to answer but Rudi preceded.

"I.iya, since yesterday, when we arrived here, "said Rudi grinned. Aris looked at Novi with a questioning look, but Novi was unaware of Aris's gaze and continued eating.

Finally Aris looked at her aunt, "Bi, there is something I want to ask, about the boundaries of the grandfather's land, "said Aris to Bik Isah. He was curious about the village they found earlier this afternoon and now hopes to draw a description of the place.

Doni and Rudi quietly listened. Although afraid but they are also curious about the place, and want to know what exactly they have faced.

"Hhmm. If the matter is on the earthen letter, tomorrow morning can I show you, "bik Isah said.

The middle-aged woman took a sip of water in the glass then looked at Aris and smiled happily, "you're an adult, next year's graduation right? "Ask him to make sure.

Aris and Doni nodded.

"Indeed, it's time you start thinking about what your legacy is and your responsibilities as an adult man" Bik Isah said. Aris was so shocked to hear his aunt's words, Iha kok talk so serious thought he. Though he was only curious about the village they found earlier this afternoon.

"You should also think about your future, and the future of Novi, "so bik Isah. Now Novi and Aris look at each other while gawking.

Novi turned to look at Bik Isah while smiling amusedly, "what do you mean? "He thought Bik Isah must be joking.

"You are our remaining heirs, our beloved, me and your Papa have talked about this, "said Bik Isah while glancing at Rudi at a glance.

Novi's beautiful eyes widened in shock. At first her mouth opened implying laughter, but she soon realized what Bik Isah meant. As soon as he understood, he hurriedly lowered his reddened face.

Aris broke out in a cold sweat, so the discussion got wider, then why so to Novi and me, there is a plan let alone this, he thought.

"Uhuk.uhuk, "Rudi coughed a few times.

"His water was drunk sis, "novi said, he happened to think, Rudi's coughs can divert this too serious talk. Rudi nodded then picked up the glass filled with water that was located in front of him.

After a short conversation just now, they continued eating without much talking. What Bik Isah said was clearly startling and disturbing the thoughts of Aris and Novi. Novi didn't even dare to stare at Aris all dinner.

Meanwhile somewhere else..

A few miles to ciremai.

In the submerged village, the eighth half-day moon illuminated this place. Featuring a gloomy silhouette of buildings on the water that twitched following the ripples. The atmosphere looks so calm, quiet, also creepy. Some catfish are seen waddling near the surface adding to the number of tiny ripples glistening.

It looks like a big catfish with a body that only lives bones swimming in circles in the open. After swimming around for a moment, the fish moved towards the big house across the concrete fence that had collapsed here and there.

In front of the big house the fish stopped and its body trembled, foam sprung around it like bubbling water. Slowly the body of the fish became smeared like plastic exposed to fire and mingled with the water around it. Along with the disappearance of the body of the fish, white smoke appeared on the water where the body of the fish was.

The white smoke drifted and gathered and formed a thick lump over the canopy of the large house that only the concrete bar remained. There the smoke slowly formed a dull white-clothed female figure with furry hair, the woman that Doni met in his dream.

The figure was still motionless, like waiting for something. Then before long there was a small-sized shadow seen moving agilely between the buildings. The little figure moved quickly to the woman and stopped beside her. The figure turned out to be an ape who had taken a joran that belonged to Rudi. The two figures stood motionless in the dim moonlight.

After a while, a female voice whispered in Dutch.

"Na twintig jaar zullen bloemen. Driehoeken word losgemaakt en vrienden worden vijanden."
