This story is just fictitious. All events that occur are free authors' essays, not actually occurring in the places and locations mentioned......

The car that stopped at the hotel lobby was immediately moved by officers. Six people who just came out stood in line staring at the big hotel. Salfa, was immediately treated to an unpleasant sight from above, where there were several figures of women in white clothes who were legendary in society. Kuntilanan. They flew here and there.

Gopal got in. Go to the reception to arrange the room. He asked for three adjoining rooms, but unfortunately, because the hotel was crowded, they did not get it. A heavy sigh could be heard from Gopal who had returned with three keys in his hand. Hand it over to Kinara and Genta.

"His room was searching" said Gopal, who immediately shocked all his friends.

"Huh? How can?" reply Vin.

"Fullly anyway?" sahut Novane.

All those questions were answered with just a nod by Gopal. There, Salfa felt his own parno because he knew, not only filled with visitors, but also crowded here by the presence of those who are not visible. "Why not go to the other hotel, Pal? Who knows if you're looking for a gini?"

"Udah's up, Sal. I swear I'm so tired I don't know it anymore the same everything that happened."

Trying to understand because what Gopal said already represents all his friends, the six people then split because the location of the room is different corners. The girls are on the south side of the hotel, second floor. Genta and Novan on the west side, second floor. Gopal and Vin, on the west side, are on the third floor.

Kinara walked quickly up the stairs, a little annoyed that Salfa did not want to be invited to take the elevator. His best friend was weird, very strange. Escalators, elevators, for Salfa are things to be shunned. Whenever asked the reason, always answered not bravely. Once Kinara forced Salfa to ride the escalator when in the mall, which had his hands even sore because it was held tightly by Salfa.

"The mind should be tired, the body should not be tired, Sal!" gerutu Kinara who a moment later finally looked back because it never got the approval. "Why is it still downstairs?"

Salfa looked sadly at Kinara who was already halfway through. On the stairs, many of them were sitting, with a look of dislike, like a subtle expulsion according to Salfa. Before being asked further by Kinara who had already highlighted her in surprise, Salfa chose to go up immediately. Walk zig-zagged for not wanting to hit them.

From there Kinara finally understood why Salfa did not rise. The goosebumps then felt running down his back neck. Moreover, a gust of wind right in her ear, spontaneously made Kinara turn her head. However, not finding anyone. On the stairs there was only himself and Salfa. Kinara grew more and more afraid, starting to suspect, that it seemed like tonight would be long.

The two girls arrived at room 037. Relieved because when they entered, they were treated to a soothing sight. The hotel room is not so spacious, but very neat and clean. It is a luxury because it is a big hotel. Kinara hurriedly slammed his body into a very soft bed with white sheets. The butterfly-patterned blanket was very soft, making Kinara very comfortable wiping it.

"Wash your hands wash your feet first, Ra, before going to bed" Salfa said. He just put his suitcase in the closet. "Lo's suitcase I'm in, all right?"

"Yes, thank you, Sal."

Salfa initially felt nothing, until, a shadow made him turn his head. From behind the curtains, it was like there was something on the balcony of that room. His gaze had changed to Kinara before intending to check out. "Come, Ra. Washing hands washing feet, abis it's me."

Although ogah-ogahan, but Kinara assented. "Yes, yes, take it," he replied as he got up.

Kinara opened the bathroom door. It's also very clean. There are towels, soap, toothbrushes, and toothpaste. Kinara washed her face first to make it fresher before resting the body. The girl got up from a low position. Still with soap inhabiting his face, faintly, he saw a woman standing behind him. Shocked, but unable to see clearly, he thought it was Salfa.

He hastily washed his face with water. He looked back, but found no one. He remembered his sight just now. Woman in black clothes. Soon after, Kinara washed her feet and came out of the bathroom. Hoping that Salfa had completely changed into a black outfit. Although he did not like it if it was true to joke Salfa, but at least it made him relieved.

"So?" call him astonished when he saw the side door of the room leading to the balcony open. With a slow step, Kinara followed. "Sal, you're doing disi-"

Stuck, Kinara looked at the person he thought was Salfa, dressed in black, turning his head. Unfortunately, his face was empty. Flat, there's nothing. "YAAAAAAAAAAA!!" he shouted and instantly turned around, when, a hand held his shoulder with a surprised expression.

"NILOR!! Hey, hey, w-why, Ra?" ask Salfa astonished.

Kinara who was already conscious a hundred percent of her shock then hugged Salfa with a body that shook violently. "T-so, just now, g-gue look..."

"See what?" salfa asked who stroked Kinara's shoulder to calm her down. He himself was still confused as to what was happening. Indeed, he had just looked at the balcony but there was no one. He heard the door of the room knock twice, made him come out, and only entered again when he heard Kinara scream.

"P-woman, kayak lo. B-but. But," replied Kinara stammeringly. "His face was flat, Sal.." - softly then, still compact with his cry.

Gopal laid his body on the bed. He turned his head, looking at Vin who was smoking outside the room, precisely on the balcony. I think he wants to follow. However, the logic forces to sleep and rest, so that tomorrow can get clarity of mind and fitness. The young man closed in, hoping to sleep well.

The subconscious directly brings Gopal into the dream. Like he was in the hallway of this hotel. The atmosphere looks lonely. Glanced at his watch, showing at one in twenty-four minutes, early in the morning. He just kept walking down the street, when he found a woman in black standing by the elevator, crying. Due to the lack of heart to hear the woman's cries, plus the high curiosity, he immediately approached.

"Mr?" call him, but there is no answer. Perhaps it was because it was so late with sadness that the woman did not hear it. He immediately called a second time. "Mr?"

Still no legalities. Until, Gopal decided to call again with a louder volume. "Mr? Why mom?"

Suddenly, Gopal was startled with a sudden stop of crying. Slowly, the woman before him turned her head. Strangely, his body did not participate. The woman's head continued to turn slowly, but Gopal found her head turning one hundred and eighty degrees. Immediately his face was empty without any organs attached there.

"YAHOOOO!!" he shouted and was about to run, but the woman then fell down, then pulled Gopal's left leg with one hand.

Vin put down his cigarette when he heard Gopal yell. He found his friend still lying with his eyes closed, but his face sweat unusually. "PALLL?!! PAL!! AWAKE, PAL!!"

And, yeah. Gopal opened his eyes. He immediately put on his body as if alert. Get up from his position and sit while looking to the right and left.

"Pal, why are you?" ask Vin who still does not fully understand. "Lo's nightmare?"

Gopal shook his head with his breath that he was still trying to regulate. "It's not just bad. Crazy serem, Dog!"

"K-why? What was? Ceritain."

Gopal held his breath for a moment. Then think about his other friends. He took the initiative to ask his friends here, because it seemed like what he had just experienced was not just an ordinary dream. At least, he could ask Salfa for advice who did understand such things.

"Where are you going?" asked Vin confused.

Gopal did not answer. However, only when he was about to stand, he felt extreme pain in his legs. He didn't see it because his mind was fixed on one thing. The young man seemed to have a guess. After regaining consciousness from his daydream, Gopal immediately put his left foot to rest on the right foot.

Vin wince in wonder. Shocked, when Gopal immediately showed the part where there was a bruise that was flushed badly. In fact, the color begins to blacken in the middle. As Vin sees it, Gopal doesn't seem to scan first which one is sick. The friend went straight to a point, and right away.

"Pal, is that why?" Vin raised a question while rounding his eyes. "That's great, Pal!"

Gopal's eyes blinked unsettled. "Gue dreams of that figure tugging at my feet. His hands are right here. In this wounded part."

For a moment Gopal stared meaningfully at Vin. Trying to explain through the signal there. But still, Vin still put up a face not understanding. That's where Gopal snorted, while a small moaning felt his feet hurt.

"Before I dreamed of that figure, my legs were fine."

Stuck, Vin finally understood what Gopal meant. The bruise on his friend's leg is certainly innate from what he dreamed. But how could such a thing happen? How can reality reflect on what is happening in the dream? Vin really doesn't understand.

"Call the others, Vin. Send here. We discussed together," pinta Gopal who was immediately accepted by Vin.

Novan was rearranging the contents of his messy suitcase because he inserted his original clothes. The voices he had heard from before were becoming more real. The young man went up, opened the curtains and the door to the balcony, looked around looking for where the voice of the muttering voice that was more like a quarreling man came from.

There's no one. He looked to the right side, then left, and down, and there was no one. He realized that the hotel was very quiet. Maybe only the lobby and restaurant are crowded by visitors who stop by. Not finding anything, Novan turned around, choosing to enter.

Surprised, he found someone standing behind him. Girl, in black. And somehow explain it, but that very second, Novan knows. That the one in front of him, not the human. Besides, which hotel attendant is going into people's rooms night after night?

"You want what?" novan asked firmly, as his fear had been defeated by the annoyance because he should, he could rest comfortably here. But even like this.

The woman turned around, revealing her empty face. Almost Novan wanted to throw him with a vase of flowers that he had been hiding behind his body, the figure disappeared. It was the first time that a Novan had seen a ghost with his own eyes.

Genta who was just coming out of the bathroom, stunned to see Novan who was preparing to throw a vase. "Lo gapain?"

Cold sweat splashed on the temple of Novan. Genta who realized that also immediately understood that something wrong had happened. The young man approached his friend who was still wiping his face with an irregular rhythm of breathing.

"YYYYOO!! VAAANNN!!" the sound of shouting was heard making the two youths in the room turn to the door that was pounded hard. "OOOOOO!!!"

"Salfa?" muttered Genta who immediately walked towards the door.

"THERE'S GHOSTS!! FLAT FACE!!!" said Kinara who was impatiently waiting to be invited in, so that once the door opened he immediately said it.

Salfa and Kinara, who were still shocked by the incident, ran out of the room. Only the Genta and Novan rooms were thought of by them as being on one floor. Although Salfa did not know exactly what Kinara was seeing, he was convinced and believed that his best friend could not lie. Kinara turned pale and it made her panic.

"Wait, wait. Meaning what?" genta asked while Novan was still fixated on not saying a word. "Flat ghost face? You see a ghost, Ra?"

Kinara nodded quickly. What he saw with his own eyes was simply incomprehensible to logic. The girl was still having trouble breathing. Salfa who saw a bottle of mineral water on the bedside nightstand, immediately took it and handed it to Kinara. "Drink first, Ra."

Genta's raut instantly turned agitated. He rubbed his face and massaged his temple because of the overwhelming fatigue over everything. The young man asked Salfa and Kinara to sit down. Then, realize there is no sahutan at all from Novan.

Genta turned his head, and behind him, Novan was still silently pensive with his own thoughts. "Van, say something dong. Why was?" ask her with a quite growling tone.

Novan's gaze scanned the two girls who had just entered his room. "Whatever you see, Ra, I see it too."

Hearing that Salfa and Genta exchanged glances, startled. A Novan says that is almost impossible. "Seriously?" salfa asked in response to what Novan said.

The young man with the navy polo shirt nodded. "Yes. Just like Kinara said. His face was flat," he answered then turned to look at Genta. "That's why I want to throw a vase, Ta. I was about to throw it at him, but he suddenly told me to get out of the bathroom."

Genta did not respond to what Novan said, the phone rang. He hurried to get his phone on the nightstand. Plastered Vin's name on the screen, and without a second thought Genta immediately raised it.

"Hello, Vin?"

"Hunter here, everyone! Take Salfa with Kinara too. Important."

Not directly answering Vin, Genta instead glanced at everyone in his room. "Yes, it's the same Salfa Kinara as well again in my room. Something's not right, Vin."

"SHIIIIIT!!" the swearing was heard echoing in Genta's ears. It seemed like it was that important until Vin was speechless anymore. "Okay, we're all there right now."

The severed connection was then replaced with questionable gazes from Salfa, Kinara, and Novan. Without waiting any longer, and to explain it would also take time, Genta chose to take them to the third floor in a hurry without the three people knowing what the reason was.

Genta, who knew that Salfa did not want to take the elevator, immediately began to climb up the stairs. The simple thing that managed to make Salfa smile a little in the crucial moments like now.

Vin was waiting at the door of his room. Everyone immediately entered and of course was surprised to see Gopal who was treating his wounds with red medicine before then wrapped in gauze.

"Lo why, Pal?" shocked Salfa.

"Can't we get to that?" sahut Kinara's. "That's why you asked everyone here?"

There, Vin then asked everyone to sit down, wherever it felt comfortable. Explain everything, experienced by Gopal from A to Z. Likewise, Kinara and Novan alternated telling what happened. Of all, it is clear. It can be concluded that there is something strange. Given that being bullied is not just one person as usual, but even three people at once with relatively the same time.

"There's something weird here."

Salfa, say that with steady confidence. In that instant he also got the idea to ask for help to one ghost he knew. Who else if not Suri. According to him, Suri can certainly help answer all questions both from himself, and from his friends.

"How should we go?" asked Novan with a face that still looked agitated.

Salfa looked at the young man. Staring intensely. "Gue's gonna ask Suri."
