Before 365 Days
Chapter 1: Entering the House of Ndoro Kusuma

A couple just came out of the police station. The look on their faces showed obvious anxiety. The husband and wife reported a case for the disappearance of their only child, who disappeared for three days. Call it husband and wife, Ruman and Saras.

The incident began when, Roses asked for blessing for his relationship with Marsel, the lover. But Ruman and Saras did not give him his blessing, the reason being that Marsel was only a factory employee.

Rose was disappointed at the decision of her parents, so the Rose left the house and did not return until now.

Ruman and Saras had attempted to call Rose's mobile number, however, the number could not be reached. Not even all of the Rose's friends knew of its existence. Including Marsel, the Rose lover.

Marsel himself did not know about the Rose, who asked his parents for blessing.

Rain has been pouring down on K for three days. It rained hard without stopping. Good thing not to die the lights alone are grateful because usually, if the rain is heavy with the wind, it must be dead lights.

In the middle of the forest that was so dark and silent, there were only banyan-like old trees and towering pines all around. I heard howling dogs and wolves. A middle-aged man was dragging a young girl. The man pulled the girl's jacket violently in the rain like this. The man entered a gate guarded by two bull-like statues while holding an axe. The statue has red and glowing eyes. His eyes are horrible. However, the man did not feel the slightest fear.

It turns out that in the middle of the forest like this there is a house like a castle that rises high but, the building looks old and creepy. The lights installed here and there do not help the lighting in the slightest. The man entered the castle and put the girl on the floor just like that.

Seen in front of the man there is an old woman who still looks energetic, wearing a kebaya, with hair in a bun, just like a traditional Javanese bride. His eyes were sharp and terrifying. The woman smiled to see the man who came to bring a girl. However, his smile looked very sinister.

"I'm bringing in one more team, Ndoro!" said the man saluted the woman sitting on his throne.

The woman came down from her throne and walked up to the girl lying on the floor. The old woman smiled.

"Beautiful, white, and clean. Clean him up!" his orders were in a soft tone but still sounded sinister.

"Ndoro is good." The middle-aged man clapped three times, then came three ladies-in-waiting with a judes-face and dressed kebaya also approached the girl, then led her up the stairs to the 4th floor. The room is already prepared for new victims such as the girl.

"Who's fishing for him, Han?" asked the old woman to the middle-aged man who turned out to be a courtier.

"Mira Ndoro" Burhan replied.

"Oh, that girl, it turns out that she really wants to get out of here, hahahahaha," the old woman's laughter echoed in the large room. Anyone who hears it will feel the pain. "How many girls has he got, Han?" ask the old woman again to her trusted man.

"the last four girls I brought, Ndoro,"

"Hahahahahhaha, you fool! His efforts will be in vain, he will not be able to get out of this place of mine, hahaha," the old woman laughed again.

While out there, the sounds of dogs and wolves howled unpretently. I don't know how many there are, which obviously sounds very boisterous.

On the fourth floor, the ladies were bathing the girl in a large tub containing many roses, a cantilever, and a cantilever.

After finishing cleaning the girl, they immediately wrapped the girl's body in the same kebaya dress as them, and put it on the bed and covered it with a blanket. After that, the three maids immediately left the room.

After a few minutes, the girl slowly opened her eyes. His right hand held a head that felt slightly dizzy. "Where am I?" muttered the girl while looking around.

Everything looks dim, there are lights, but the light is not as bright as the lamp in general. As soon as the girl could clearly see, the girl was immediately startled and immediately got up from her bed. His breath immediately felt dull. The girl looked at the clothes she was wearing. His entire body was goosebumps as he observed every corner of the room that looked stuffy and creepy. The closet with a large size, the dressing table and the mirror, the room he used to sleep in earlier, the table and chair that was right at the end of the bed.

Then there's one more door that the girl doesn't know about inside. With a feeling of anxiety, slowly his feet stepped closer to the door of the room that he did not know. His hand opened the door while regulating the roar of breath that felt tight.

As soon as the door opened it turned out that the room was just a bathroom booth with a big tub there.

The girl immediately closed the door and returned to the room. He approached the doorknob of his room, he had not yet opened the door, from the outside there was already someone who opened the door of his room first.

The girl jumped in shock when she saw a ladyboy with a pale face and judes enter while carrying porridge, fried chicken, and also water. The dayang put the food on the table.

The dayang looked at the girl blankly, without the slightest smile scratching her pale face. The girl was quite goosebumps with the empty look of the lady. Instead of answering the girl's question, the lady turned around and came out.

After the lady's departure, the Old Lady appeared with her brother. The girl took a few steps back to see the Old Woman and her burly, tall brother approaching her. The girl shakes.

"Don't be afraid Nak, I'm Kusuma, the owner of this house, and he, my servant, Burhan his name," said the old woman aka Kusuma as she pointed at Burhan. "My servant found you and brought you here" Kusuma said.

Hearing Kusuma's explanation, the girl then thanked him, half of his fear began to disappear. It seemed like this old lady in front of him was kind, despite looking creepy. Nevertheless, the girl remained vigilant.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, for helping me,"

"Call me, Ndoro Kusuma!"

"Sorry Ndoro, I don't know, thank you for helping me,"

"Eat first, son, come!" Kusuma hugged the girl's shoulder, then blew the girl's ear, so she felt her body goosebumps and immediately obeyed everything Kusuma told her to do.

Kusuma led the girl to the chair to eat.

"Please eat, son!" Kusuma smiled happily. "What's your name?"

"Rose, Ndoro,"

"Beautiful name like her, let's finish it, Rose."

The rose nodded and immediately finished off the porridge and chicken that was in front of him. Then the water in the glass he drank until it ran out.

Kusuma smiled grinningly.

"Go back to sleep, Rose!" kusuma's orders.

The rose immediately walked up and climbed on his bed and took a blanket to cover his body. His eyes were empty.

With a grin, Kusuma got up from his seat and left the Rose room. One of the ladies came back to clean up the used plate of the Roses. After the lady-in-waiting came out, Burhan immediately locked the Rose room.

Rose looked at the ceiling of her room, her eyes still blank. A few seconds later, he regained consciousness. Several times the rose opened and closed its eyes. He feels strange about himself. Then the rose leaned against his body. His head was a little heavy and dizzy.

The rose wants to see the situation outside its window.

When the curtains were opened, the Rose was astonished to know that the distance between the ground and the room was far away. Even around him there were only large trees towering high. There are no other lights besides the lights from the house of Ndoro Kusuma. The lights in his house, Ndoro Kusuma, are also not too bright.

The rose shuddered in horror, as soon as it felt fear again. There were a lot of dogs and wolves. Added owls and crows that are mutually unpretentious. The rose immediately closed the window curtain back. He stroked his chest which continued to pound. His body creeps violently with sweat that begins to pour wet his sweat.

"Yes, where exactly am I? Father, Mother, Marsel, please Rose" said the Rose in her heart.

Roses feel if they are in danger of being in this place. The rose ran towards the door handle of the room. He tried to open it but could not. The rose broke him with all its might. However, the door did not budge in the slightest, which even had his arm that hurt.

The rose then went to her bed again, she curled up in the blanket. Despite the fear, the Rose tried to calm down.

He remembered what happened before he got here.

That night, Roses left his house in a state of heavy rain. The rose rode a motorcycle towards the road without direction and purpose. Until not realized, the rose is already on the asphalt road without end, right left only tall trees that lined up neatly. The rose then met a girl of her age and stopped to ask for directions. The rose is told to walk straight, then turn left. After turning left, the Rose smashed into a tall, black-feathered figure. The rose fainted instantly. Once there, the rose remembered nothing.
