TUMBAL NURSING HOME

CHAPTER 52 ESCAPE?

"Who are you? Why are you standing there?" Widia asked stammering.

Widia noticed the figure that was in front of her. From a distance he was sure, if the one in the room was not a Mariyati figure. Because of his posture alone is different. Widia asked again, but the figure actually shot closer to her. A figure with typical Javanese dancer clothes in ancient times, with a red scarf that is circular on the hip. Her figure introduced herself, as Widia's great-grandmother. Suddenly Widia was surprised, she saw the ghost's face was familiar to her eyes.

"This sound, no! No way! This ghost is the embodiment of Nek Windu! Is she my great-grandmother? But why would he want to fuck me?" Inner Widia wondered in her heart.

"Nduk cah ayu... No need to be confused to find a reason why. I'll explain everything to you." Say the figure of Nek Windu while rubbing Widia's hair.

Silent. There was not a word Widia said. He was still in a state of shock, and did not expect the reality. Widia sat with tears of fear. Even his whole body was shivering, he could not feel his own body. Though the bond that wrapped around his body was almost released, but he did not dare to move his body. In the midst of his confusion, he faintly heard the sound of the morning adhan reverberating. It seemed that the figure of Nek Windu suddenly shrieked with a hollow body that emitted a thin white smoke. He was like overheating and burning, after which there was a shrieking sound of a magical figure that just disappeared.

Widia seems to be stuck. He opened his mouth wide, but he knew it was the right time for him to escape. Because after hearing the voice of the Adhan, the supernatural figures were sure to return to his hiding place.

"Gue must leave this place immediately, before Mariyati's mother comes. I have to get out before the sun shines, because soon Mariyati's mom will also come in here to hide her true form from friends. But do I have to go alone without telling them the truth." Widia murmured to herself.

Despite the difficulties, Widia had managed to remove the rope wrapped around her body. He tried to stand up, but his feet were cramped because they bent too long. He recklessly crawled out, fearing that Mariyati would suddenly return to his room. Widia crept to the kitchen hallway, and she saw Mariyati had just come out of the ritual room. He's heading to his study. At once Widia tried to stand up, then hid behind the kitchen wall. His breathing was so loud that he decided to hold his breath so that his existence was unknown to Mariyati. As soon as Mariyati passed through the long hallway, and entered into her room. He rushed through the back garden. But as he passed through his room, he saw Sintia sitting at the end of the bed. In front of him was a kuntilanak figure who seemed to communicate with him. Widia almost ignored Sintia, and wanted to escape on her own. But his instincts made him stop the move. Widia turned around, she walked into the room.

"Synthia... Don't believe what the kuntilanak said! He is one of the elderly we care for in this place. They are our ancestors, who want our lives as collateral. We gotta get out of here Sin, ayooo!" Widia exclaimed with a cry.

Sintia fell silent with a look of puzzled face. He looked at the face of the kuntilanak in front of him. The astral figure who took pains to endure the heat of the voice of the Adhan, just for the sake of convincing him. Could it be that the figure had evil intentions to uproot his life. Only the figure of the kuntilanak can withstand the heat of reading the holy verses. The other ghostly figure had already returned to the hiding place.

Sintia did not budge, she just focused on seeing the sad face of the astral figure in front of her.

"Trust him Sin, we're all here bodyless souls. We all need the lives of our own descendants. You're my good-natured great-grandson, I can't bear to make you the victim for my fake survival." Said the figure of kuntilanak nek Siti who coincidentally changed his form into a human who does not have a body.

Every morning, the elderly figures will change into a bodyless soul that is human as in general. There was no strength or special thing they could do, if it had changed. Sintia and Widia were shocked by rounding both eyes. The two of them stood together with frightened faces. They had just witnessed the change in form of kuntilanak nek Siti became human. Both of them did not expect that there was such a magical thing around him.

"Go from this place, take Riko too. Because actually Ridho's grandfather also did not want to get a soul offering from his great-grandfather." Speak Siti's nek with teary eyes.

"lik! He lied Sin, proof I was held captive by Mariyati ma'am. Because my great-grandmother wanted to name me. If I can't break the bond, I'll be gone in a few days! He must also be in cahoots with the other seniors!" Jerit Widia, don't trust Grandma Siti.

Nek Siti bowed with a sad face. He knelt down in front of Sintia, because he did not know how to convince his great-grandson. Seen Sintia stepped foot closer to the nek Siti, he touched the shoulder of the old figure and helped him stand. Sintia wiped the tears that soaked the wrinkled face of Siti's nek. He was also covered in tears, could not bear to see the suffering shown by Nek Siti through the look of her face. Widia again warned Sintia not to be fooled by the elderly in front of her. But Sintia instead asked Widia to be quiet, she gave a hint with body gestures. Sintia placed her index finger in front of her lips, as she heard the sound of footsteps leading to their room.

"Widia hid first, your great-grandmother is on her way here. Although no one has realized that if you run away, it is better that no one sees you here. Once everything is safe, you can pick up Riko and get away from this cursed place!" Pungkas nek Siti while sharing her smile.

Widia was still glued to where she stood. He panicked not knowing what to do, as soon as Sintia pulled her hand and pushed Widia's body into the bathroom. He does not know what else to do, even though he does not fully believe in Nek Siti. There was a part of him who asked him to listen to the words of the elderly. So he hurriedly hid Widia from the eyesight of the other elderly.
