TUMBAL NURSING HOME

CHAPTER 82 WITHOUT MEMORY?

"Whoever you are trying to break into this pesantren, if your goal is good then I will allow you to enter. But if you have bad intentions, you have to come face to face with me!" Resolute Mr. Abdul, Fatima's father who is very respected in the pesantren region.

No one showed up after hearing the warning. Mr. Abdul can only feel two negative and positive energies outside the boarding school. As far as the eye could see, there was no suspicious movement so he chose to ignore it.

"I kept quiet on purpose, not looking for more details so that whoever was monitoring out there thought I was off guard. Then at the right time, I can catch it easily!" Mr. Abdul's heart in his heart.

It appeared that someone was hiding behind a large tree, observing around the boarding school. He wore a head covering made of bamboo. In his hand, there was a dagger and a large sack. He walked over to a man who had just returned from the garden, and he asked where there was a lot of grass and weeds. Because he wanted to find food for his cattle. Unsuspecting the santri told, if in his boarding school there is a place that is always overgrown with lush grass. Because it happens that the santri also raise livestock, which is given grass feed directly from there.

"If you want, please come with me inside. You can take as necessary." Said the santri kindly, and answered the nod of the head of the man in conversation.

The man always lowered his head, without saying a word. If Santri had not asked, where did he come from. Because actually they are not allowed to carelessly bring outsiders into the pesantren area.

"I live not far from here, coincidentally the place that usually looks for feed is already dry grass. So that I have to look elsewhere, I will not linger here." Clearly the man was mowing the grass with his dagger.

The santri was just about to step away to the cattle pen. But the man asked the question again. He claimed to see a healer from outside the village enter the boarding school, and he asked if someone was sick there. Seemed the santri only hooked the two eyebrows, he scratched the head that did not itch and replied he did not know anything. Then the santri feed the livestock in the cage.

The mysterious man pulled something out of his pants pocket. He hung something wrapped in white cloth on a tree branch. No one knew the movements, until finally Fatima stopped her steps because she felt unfamiliar with someone who was near the cattle pen. Just as Fatima was about to step there, the man in conversation said his farewell while thanking the santri who brought her in. He was escorted to the front of the pesantren cottage fence, then he went in a hurry by carrying a sack filled with grass.

Fatima stared at the man's back, until his sumi call was not heard.

"Fatima was just surprised, there was a man who had come here. But Fatima felt familiar with her posture. Like I've seen it somewhere." It clearly seems to remember.

"It's time to pray dhuha, abi and the other santri are waiting." Pungkas uminya while walking into a room.

The village healer tried to resuscitate Riko. Until he finally opened both his eyes. He sometimes groaned in pain by holding his head. The healer helps by giving a potion, so that the pain he feels is slightly reduced. Slowly Riko began to calm down, and was able to lie down without holding her head.

Not long after Mr. Abdul came, he saw the condition of the young man who helped his daughter. Although it looked conscious, the condition of the young man was very concerning. Abdul heard an explanation from the doctor, who said if there was a possibility of severe injury to the head. With great hesitation, Abdul asked, what was the name of the young man and where he came from. But the young man had trouble answering. When he tried to remember, he was getting more pain and groaned again by holding his head.

"Look... Don't be forced to remember. You can stay here until you're in better shape, I'll take care of your safety." Said Abdul with a long breath.

Based on the reaction Riko showed, it seems that he had a brain gag so he lost his memory. The doctor asked Abdul not to make the young man think too much, because it would make his condition worse.

While someone outside the boarding school who managed to watch Riko from out there seemed surprised. He lowered his head as if disappointment was creeping on his shoulders. Even the bodyless soul of Grandpa Ridho seemed to come to the man who managed to break into the boarding school. He did not expect that his great-grandson was in such a condition. He had blamed the man, because he felt that if Riko's condition reached like that also could not be separated from his intervention. Now Riko is in a state of uncertainty, even though his life is in a safe place. But the condition of his soul can be threatened at any time, because after all his soul has been mortgaged. And whenever needed, Riko's soul can be taken at any time by people who have made soul binding rituals with other young people. Including the soul of Sintia that can be taken at any time, as Mariyati or Mbah Gito like.
