Behind the Eyes of INDIGO
Uncomfortable

That day Alia left school as usual, coincidentally that day was Tuesday, which was the schedule for PMR extracurricular activities.

It was also the last day Irfan was in the pesantren. That afternoon after school, Alia decided to rest in the boarding school.

Alia returns to school for her extracurricular activities, Alia accidentally walks alone but Dista still follows her because she is still embarrassed if she has to go to the PMR room without Alia, while Nida and Mayra are still busy preparing for the boarding school.

Alia deliberately walked slowly when in front of the entrance of the pesantren son, for some reason he seemed to be showing that he was walking along with Dista. Irfan who was preparing to leave the pesantren also saw that, and it seemed that his sense of regret was still there.

Alia went into the PMR room and carried out activities as usual, until the time of the activity ended everything went smoothly. When all the members came home because the activities were finished, Alia was still busy in the room taking care of something.

As soon as Alia activated her phone\suddenly went off and there was a message coming in from an unknown number.

"*Review if you dare to sort\-assort same Dysta*!"

Alia opened the short message and read it in her heart, without being told she could know who had sent the message.

"Where did he get my number?"

Alia wonders to herself how she got Alia's mobile number.

"*I don't care! what happens if I get along with him? maybe it's nice to be able to prank a child as soon as he*!"

Somehow Alia just typed the message without thinking, because she also felt annoyed to always get words like that from Irfan. Though actually without being told Alia would definitely protect Dysta if there was something bothering him, because he also respected Dista who greatly admired him.

"*If you dare to do so, then don't blame me, if an object sticks to your heart*!"

The deg! Alia was speechless seeing the reply from the short message that she thought was just a joke. Because it turns out Irfan responded so seriously, and somehow he froze when reading the reply message. Alia immediately turned off her phone and rushed home.

"You why Al? kok diem it's rich people abis see the devil! demons are afraid of you!"

Mayra said that she had been waiting for Alia in the parking lot. But Alia just shook her head without saying a word. He then grabbed the key in his pocket and started the motorcycle. He also rushed home.

Along the way Alia was still silent, she was still imagined with an inscription in the short message she had read.

"*That message, why does it seem so serious*!?"

Alia kept wondering in her heart, her mind still thinking about what would happen next, he never thought that such serious words could be heard from someone who had never even spoken seriously to him. Because all this time he only saw Irfan talking in a mocking and joking tone.

His days were still passed with the worry he felt. I don't know why Alia's feelings are always not calm like something is constantly bothering her.

That night after learning that Alia had laid her body on her bed, she tried to close her eyes and sleep. Shortly after, he opened his eyes and fell silent.

"*Why does this bed suddenly feel so hot*?"

Alia muttered inwardly, she tried to think what made her feel that way.

"I may have forgotten to pray"

Alia prayed and tried to go back to sleep, but she still had nightmares.

"What if I don't feel comfortable sleeping in bed?"

Alia finally got up and walked out of her room. He brought a pillow and a blanket and slept on the floor in the middle room and only had a thin carpet.

Alia was finally able to sleep soundly on the floor until morning.

"Alia wake up, son! why are you sleeping on the floor?"

"Ah no papa mah, would like to be"

"Let's get up, it's morning, and don't sleep on the floor again, you'll get sick!"

Alia woke up, smiling at her mother's words. Alia went back to her room and then cleaned up the pillow and blanket that she carried in the middle room.

Alia rushed to take a shower and get ready for school, she had the day as usual, but that day she was more silent. Until he went home from school he was still silent, Nida was confused to see his attitude that only remained silent all day and spoke if there was anything important.

At night Alia tried to sleep, she laid her body on the bed, but it happened again, her body felt hot when she was on her bed.

Alia finally came out of her room, she brought back her pillow and also her blanket. But this time he tried to sleep on the sova in his living room, because he did not want to be angry by his mother again. He laid his body on a long chair and stared at the ceiling of his house.

"*What's wrong? why do I feel uncomfortable sleeping in my own room*?" Alia continued to wonder at herself, until she did not realize she was asleep.

_____-----_____

The next day Alia left as usual, but that day she remained silent and did not say much. That time the hour of rest had arrived, but Alia was still sitting in her chair like she did not intend to get up.

"Alia! you're not going to the cafeteria?" tanya Mayra approached.

Alia was just speechless, she just shook her head, and Mayra immediately left without saying as if she had understood Alia's situation.

Meanwhile, Nida who was still sitting next to her tried to ask what was really going on, she spoke softly for fear of offending Alia.

"You believe in witchcraft?'

Suddenly the word just came out of Alia's mouth, she spoke still with a blank look like a daydreaming person, she did not even look at Nida while talking.

"You why? why the sudden\nya?"

Nida's reaction turned to panic and was somewhat frightened when Alia asked that.

"No papa, just a nanya"

"Yes I believe, even though I have never seen it myself" replied Nida.

Alia fell silent again, as if she could say nothing more.

"But said mr. ustadz, if sleeping on the floor it can ward off witchcraft" added Nida.

"meaning?"

Alia immediately reacted when she heard Nida's statement, she became very enthusiastic to hear an explanation of what Nida had said.

"Yes! sleeping without a bed, because under the bed it is under, and there could be a place to land the santet sent, so if we sleep on the floor it can be to deny it" explained Nida.

"Seriously you?" Alia made sure.

"Well, that's why we in Pesantren only sleep on a mattress and do not use a bed, but that's just he said, do not know the truth".

"*Do I have to throw away my bed*?" muttered Alia.
