TUMBAL NURSING HOME

CHAPTER 19 STUCK IN THE SUCTION GROUND.

That morning they all did their usual activities. Only Dina was still lying on the bed. He only knows if his whole body feels pain from the tip of the foot to the top of the head. He does not remember or understand why his body condition became like that. That's why Mariyati gave Dina time to rest in the room, and the task of taking care of Nek Sejah took over Sintia and Widia. Although both are not sure they can take care of the grumpy elderly.

The female students were still busy in the kitchen, and watching the female elderly. While Riko and Doni, being in the back garden helps Grandpa Bimo hoe the ground.

"Grandpa Bimo and Dodit remain there, see Grandpa Ridho painted the garden first. Let's get the soil first to fill the potted plants!" Pinta Riko before going to the backyard.

"Remain Ko, do we stay with the Grandpa's without anyone to look after? What if they need anything?" Doni asked, hooking both eyebrows.

"It's okay, Grandpa Ridho's with them. I asked for his help for two of his elderly friends. Yuk ah, the weather's hot!" Riko answered while pulling Doni's hand.

Riko and Doni hoe the mound of soil that is still wet. They feel the mound of land as if it is still new, why yesterday they did not take the land from there. Because according to Mariyati's orders, they must not go out of the boundary of the existing land stake. But the soil in the previous place was too dry, so they had difficulty hoeing.

"Loh Don, there's something in this land. Don't be hoeed again. There may be treasure in there, let me dig it by hand if so!" Riko jumped underground, her hand trying to grab something that was underneath.

But suddenly something happened. Riko felt her legs were very heavy, as if sucked into the ground that she poked. He looked down at his feet, it turned out that the flip-flops he was wearing had been covered with soil in some of his footwear.

"Don please pull my hand dong, I feel like there's something pulling my leg from the inside. But there's no way in here there's suction mud, the soil is dry and the soil structure is solid." Riko complains while reaching Doni's hand.

"Lu how the hell Ko, cook can go down can not go up alone! You know not!" Doni squatted down then grabbed Riko's hand.

"Pick Don, pull me up!"

Riko panicked to see that her legs were covered with dirt. Like something pulled him so he couldn't move his legs. The harder he wiggled his feet to escape the clutches of the ground beneath him, the stronger and faster his legs were sucked inward. Apparently Doni increasingly panjk, from a crouching position now he lay on his stomach on the edge of the trench to be able to pull Riko's arm. Riko's hands were wet with sweat, making Doni's hands loose because of slippery.

"Astaghfirullahalazim." Riko said unconsciously.

"The land is just feet, lest this is the devil who is waiting for the garden again!

The two panicked and did not know what else to do. Because now the land has almost closed half Riko's calf. Doni shouted loudly for help, until Grandpa Ridho finally came carrying a long stick. He stomped the stick to the ground, and was seen reading something.

"Take this young man off right now, before I do anything to you!" Grandpa Ridho's snapping looked angry.

Slowly the pull under the ground felt slack. Riko starts to move her legs, and Doni pulls Riko's hand up. They looked at each other, and were silent for a while. With just one pull, Doni managed to get Riko out of the ground that almost sucked her. Now Riko stood up by wagging her pants and sandals from the rest of the land that was still attached. He scratched his head without itching, feeling astonished because the ordinary-looking soil seemed to want to bury him alive.

"Thank you, Mother." Said Riko while turning her body.

They were even more astonished because suddenly Grandpa Ridho disappeared just like that. Both are inexhaustible, the soil whose texture looks solid can suck someone into it. They both shuddered, then took the red earth as necessary, and left after closing the mound of land back. They don't want anyone else to get hurt, and get stuck in it.

"Riko, Doni. What are you doing up to the plantation limit? I told you not to go beyond the limits set! If you guys get fucked how? Fortunately there was Grandpa Ridho who helped, otherwise you could have been lost there. And who will help Grandpa Ridho and Dodit huh?" Mariyati said in a high voice.

"Sorry Mom, it's all my fault. Doni is not wrong, I will not repeat it again." Riko lowered her head feeling bad.

"It's Mar, the most important thing is that they're okay now. Let them clean up first, it's time for lunch soon." Grandpa Ridho looked at Riko's face seriously.

Sintia felt something strange, after she saw the look on Riko and Doni's face. Especially with the condition of Dina who suddenly hurt.

"Everything's ready, go to Sin's dinner table!"

"Keep Dina how is Wid? I can't bear to see him in such pain. Didn't Mbah Gito say he wanted to do it yesterday?"

"Ntar we bring food to the room, maybe he's still traumatized anyway I think." Widia said as she brought a tray of food to the room.

Dina was still lying on the bed. Sintia opened the door so that Dina could go straight inside. They saw Dina's pale face, as well as her weak body.

"Actually you're in the same medicine as Mbah Gito not really Din? How come your condition is even a gini?" Widia asked hooked both eyebrows.

"Gue's okay Wid, maybe some soy sauce. It is not wrong Mbah Gito also like I think gini. Because what I want is my therapy like Nek Sejah too." Dina replied, leaning the body against the wall.

"Chealing quickly, Din, we have to go back to the front again." Say Cintia by exhaling a long breath.

The two return to do their duty, leaving Dina alone in the room. It appeared that Grandpa Ridho was secretly staring at Riko's face with a look of sad eyes. Just like Nek Siti who suddenly saw Sintia full of sadness.

"Grandpa Ridho doesn't like our cooking?"

Grandpa Ridho was flabbergasted hearing Sintia's words. He did not realize that Sintia saw the expression on his face.

"Like Sin, you and Dina are very good at cooking. Must be the talent you guys got because of heredity." Add Grandpa Ridho, making Nek Siti and Nek Sejah singled out smiles.

The day just passed quickly. After a disturbance during the day. Riko and Doni also compact shut up, they do not want his friends who are women to know the strange events that this afternoon they experienced. Both do not want to make the situation more complicated, because some days it has often happened something that they think is awkward. And indigestible with common sense, everything leads to a very ordinary occult thing for them.
