Behind the Eyes of INDIGO
Not time...

Mbah Arsa approached Alia with a smile,

"Not yet, son.." While rubbing Alia's head.

The next day Alia's two parents came home, they immediately saw the state of their second daughter.

"You guys take it easy, I've handled it" Mbah Arsa said.

"But is this all done? will nothing else happen to Sita Mbah?" Ask Mr. Aji a bit worried.

"Calm down, I threw him out. He will not stay because you are not asking for anything from him" Mbah Arsa explained.

"Thank God, my son is finally safe" said Mr. Aji while hugging Sita.

"so, can we go to the city again to work?" Ask Mia Ma.

"Wait a few more days, after all, do you not miss your first child who is always left behind" while heading towards Alia who was sitting alone.

Ma Mia approached Alia and hugged her,

"Mama certainly misses you very much, son, Mama's son is already big well" while rubbing his head.

"Alia, is that your doll? but Mama and Papa never feel like buying a little doll" said Pak Aji while pointing towards the doll that was always embraced by Alia.

"that's Maa" Somewhat confused while afraid of being scolded.

"Darling.. Did you ask grandma to buy you that doll?" Ask Mia slowly.

"Actually.. Alia bought this doll herself Ma" began to dare to talk.

"Yes on,?" Mia asked again

"Alia cuddles pocket money to buy this Ma, Alia does not bother grandma kok.."Clearly with a little fear.

Ms. Mia just smiled as she hugged her daughter.

"Maa is Sita not papa?" Taking off his mother's embrace.

"You calm down well, God willing now no papa" Trying to calm down.

Alia actually wanted to tell her mother about what she saw in her sister's room, yet she was still scared and not brave, she said, so he prefers to be quiet and just tell Tiara (Alia's beloved Barbie doll).

Meanwhile in the guest room Mr. Aji was talking to Mbah Arsa

"This is Ji, you love to drink to Alia" gave a glass of water that had been given a prayer.

"What is mbah for?" Ask Mr. Aji while receiving a glass of water.

"just do it first, I'll explain later" said Mbah Arsa.

Mr. Aji just fell silent and left immediately. He gave Alia water to drink and some to wash her face.

After drinking the water he felt a little dizzy and said goodbye to sleep.

Mr. Aji then returned to the living room to ask for an explanation to Mbah Arsa.

"So, what exactly was that for?" Mr. Aji started asking.

"Alia was a child, only 6 years old. So it is not yet time" Mbah Arsa said briefly.

"What do you mean by mbah?" Pak Aji was still confused and could not digest Mbah Arsa's words.

"She was just like her great-grandmother.! He's special, he knows everything, he can see everything. But this is not the time yet" Mbah Arsa explained while remembering his late sister.

"Yes!" Mbah Arsa said firmly.

"Our family has a case!( elders or parents from families who have a special knowledge of high kebatinan)" said Mbah Arsa.

Mr. Aji just fell silent while continuing to listen to Mbah Arsa's words.

"All descendants know, certainly can know, although not all can see. But they can all feel, including your wife" Mbah Arsa explained.

"I mean Mia can also see that kind of thing?" Ajjis started to wonder.

"No, he couldn't see it, but could feel its existence. But your son can!" Looking into the eyes of Mr. Aji.

"So, Alia can see all that? including what was the experience of his sister?" Mr. Aji was shocked.

"Yes! his inner eyes have been opened, of the many descendants of Nyai Wangsa (grandmother of Mbah Arsa), it turns out that your child was chosen to get the ability" His tone began slowly.

"But he's still very small, whether he'll be strong with that kind of thing" Mr. Aji started to fret.

"You don't worry, it's not like I've given a glass of water to your son" Mbah Arsa explained.

"But it's only temporary, Aji! if I die you have to promise to stay in this house. Do not leave this house empty or uninhabited, and you also can no longer leave Alia alone anymore" said Mbah Arsa.

Mr. Aji just nodded in silence, he knew exactly what Mbah Arsa meant.

Since then Alia never saw anything strange again, Tiara doll had never moved again. He lived his life like any other normal child, had many friends and was very cheerful.

Several years passed, the little girl was now already sitting in the third grade of Junior High. Every time he came home from school he always came to Mbah Arsa's house, Alia was very fond of him, she shared all the sadness and happiness with Mbah Arsa. Only Arsa could feel what she was feeling.

Now that Alia has started to turn into a teenager, several years passed by the era has begun to modernize, there are many people in the village who began to use mobile phones including Alia. She was bought by her mother to communicate at any time.

But one day Mbah Arsa fell ill, he began to hurt hard and could not even wake up again. Slowly he began to be unconscious, not remembering his family even his wife.

In her pain she kept delirious calling the name Mia, her mother Alia.

Alia tried to contact her mother with the cell phone she had,

"Maa Mbah Arsa is sick, can't get up" Alia said on the phone.

"Astaghfirullah continues now how he is" Ms. Mia began to panic.

"Yes! he was lying on his bed, while continuing to deliriously call Mama's name" explained Alia.

"Yes later tonight also Mama went straight home well, yes you have taken care of yourself well dear, daah" said Ms. Mia and immediately turned off the phone.

In fact, the day Ms. Mia immediately went on a bus to go home. He only goes alone because Mr. Aji still has to finish his job, while Sita is entrusted to the nanny in the city.

In the morning Alia and her close family were in Mbah Arsa's room, she kept calling Mia, Alia's mother.

While Mia's still on her way home.

"Well, where's Mama been?" Alia asked

"In a moment until son, this is close, you wait well" explained Ms. Mia.

Shortly after, however, the sound of crying began to break. Alia immediately ran to Mbah Arsa's room, and it turned out that she had breathed her last..

Alia's tears trickled involuntarily, she could only remain silent speechless...

His body was bathed and buried right then and there. Alia followed everything, from the soldering until the burial process was complete.

After the funeral, Alia sat alone behind her house. But suddenly he caught a glimpse of a person wearing a long black robe passing in front of him, he stared with a smile at Alia and then just disappeared.
