Anomalously
Chapter 3: The Call
As the sirens stopped, Raezha heard the sound of knocking on the door three times quietly.
GECK, TOK, TOK.
In accordance with the warning directives from the government, Raezha did not open the door because no one knew whether the one outside it was human or an anomaly.
As the knocking went on, the entire electronic device instantly died and made the entire room of Raezha's boarding house turn pitch black and it showed that just knocking on the door was an anomaly.
The sound of knocking on the door disappeared, but Raezha did not hide. Instead he picked up a kitchen knife and waited at the door.
Raezha remained standing at the door if the anomaly tried to break into his boarding house, albeit at great risk.
After about 30 seconds, the electronic device turns on again, indicating that the anomaly is away from the location.
The television was back on and the broadcast was a notice from the Anomaly Affairs Agency.
“ANOMALI HAS MOVED AWAY FROM THE SOUTHERN TANGERANG REGION, IF THERE ARE ANY VICTIMS YOU FIND PLEASE IMMEDIATELY TO CALL THE POLICE AROUND. FOR NOW ALL COMMUNITIES ARE ENCOURAGED TO RETURN TO THEIR RESPECTIVE HOMES TO AVOID ANOMALIES THAT MAY STILL BE HIDING.” Said the man in the warning broadcast.
Raezha put his knife back on the kitchen table and walked to the bed and fell down on the bed.
“Is there no way that this anomaly can be stopped?” Raezha said then sighed.
Raezha suddenly felt very sleepy and slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
After a long sleep Raezha woke up at 17:50. Raezha is still sleepy and picks up his smartphone and looks at the clock.
“What? Is it 6 o'clock? I slept for a long time.” Raezha got up from the bed and walked to the WC to wash his face.
After washing Raezha's face, Raezha walked to the door and opened the door to look outside.
After seeing Raezha briefly go back in and close the door. Raezha walks into the closet and picks up instant noodles. Unhealthy lifestyle yes, how else he does not have enough money to buy side dishes.
Raezha then took the pot and filled it with water then put it on the stove and started cooking instant noodles.
After cooking the noodles Raezha sat in front of the television while eating the noodles he had cooked.
Although Raezha watches television while eating noodles, he even thinks how to get a job quickly and easily.
“How to get a fast job but a qualified salary.” Reveal Raezha in your heart while eating noodles.
After eating Raezha noodles look at the clock on his smartphone. “What? Is it 7:37? Did I eat that long? Though it was just 6.” Raezha said that time goes by very quickly.
Then Raezha put the dishes in the dishwasher, because the dishwasher has been a lot Raezha decided to wash the dishes for a while.
After washing the dishes Raezha again saw the clock on-smartphone, and this time the clock pointed at 20:47 or 8:47 p.m
“What? Do you want 9 o'clock? Why is time moving so fast tonight?”
Then Raezha heard a knock from outside, Raezha slowly approached the door and opened the door. But, unfortunately there was no one outside at all other than the darkness of the night and the silence. Raezha then goes back inside the boarding house, but. Instead of going back to boarding, Raezha is in a forest of lies.
Raezha looked at the huge trees surrounding him, and there were many birds flying over Raezha from the east.
Then a strong growling sound was heard almost throughout the forest. Raezha searched for the origin of the voice. Suddenly there was a noise in the bushes and out came a black creature in white and like a small monster running after Raezha.
Raezha inevitably has to run from the pursuit of the strange creature. Raezha continued to run away from the strange black creature, but he felt that he was just circling in the wilderness.
Raezha turns left while running continuously, the creature that is chasing Raezha is no longer visible indicating that Raezha is far away from him. Raezha decided to sit on a tree to rest and think for a moment.
Raezha let out a long sigh after running for quite a while. “This is a dream or an anomaly anyway? It can't be a dream, it must be an anomaly.” Raezha said in amazement. “But there are indeed anomalies that bring people to the forest like gini?”
Just a short break the strange black creature showed itself again and chased after Raezha while roaring.
Raezha is forced to run again from the pursuit of the strange black creature. Raezha ran long enough to get there and come here to avoid chasing the black creature.
Not paying attention to what he passed Raezha ended up falling and getting injured in the right hoe. The strange black creature that was chasing Raezha slowly approached Raezha. Raezha stayed away from the black creature but behind it was a tree that blocked it. The black creature turned into someone who was black in color with white eyes shining brightly.
“You can not avoid fate, all should have been clear you are not.” The black man continued walking towards Raezha who was sitting with a wound on his leg.
“WHO ARE YOU?! WHAT DO YOU WANT?!” Raezha asked who was shouting.
“I thought you were really brave. But all I want is to tell you that you are -” Just before the black man finishes his words, Raezha wakes up from her sleep in the morning. “What?!- It turned out to be just a dream.” Raezha slightly sighed then tried to get up from the bed. “Aww! What is this?” Raezha felt his legs hurt very much, Raezha saw that his right leg hoe was injured. The same wound he had in his dream.
“How can I wait, this is the same wound as in my dream. How can?!” Raezha was still filled with questions but on the doorstep someone was knocking.
TOK, TOK, TOK, TOK, TOK, TOK.
“We are from Polsek Pamulang in beg to come out for a while.” Ask the police outside.
“Ya I'll be out- Ouch!” Raezha tried to stand up and walked slowly to the door and saw two policemen in full uniforms waiting. “Ya what's wrong sir?” Ask Raezha.
“What's your right Raezha?” Ask one of the police.
“Yes right I am Raezha, what is it?” Ask Raezha again.
“On being called to undergo interrogation from Polsek, this is not about a crime. Just a question for investigation, please cooperate.” The police officer next to the police asked.
Since Raezha did not feel that he was committing any crime, he decided to go along instead of rebelling.
“Well I will come, but please wait a minute I want to treat my wound first.” Pinta Raezha's.
“You're hurt? If it is not okay, when you recover we will come again.” Respond to the police cordially. “It's okay I'll come.” Raezha.
“Well then, we will wait for you to treat your wound.”
Raezha walked back inside and went to the bathroom to clean the wound before taking the bandage he had stored in the closet, then wrapped his wounded envy with the bandage.
After finishing his wound, Raezha also went with the police to the office of Polsek Pamulang.
