Behind the Eyes of INDIGO
Toh Brahma

Ms. Mia was still busy feeding her husband and giving him medicine. While Alia was still agitated at the thought of her mother's words\-word.

He thought and kept thinking until his mind became very disturbed.

Ma Mia smiled looking at the agitated attitude of her daughter.

"Yes, my mom is smiling! don't think what the fate of his son is!"

Alia was still pacing around in her room until finally Bu Mia came and told her to sit down.

"You still think about that?"

"Well, how can you not think of me..."

"Here's mama tell you"

Ma'am Mia told Alia to approach her and say something.

He began to talk that the one owned by Alia was another type.

"What mama means, I don't understand"

"So that you have is Brahma"

The Javanese believe that there are two types of toh, one Tohpati (which brings evil) and the other Toh Brahma (which brings good)

This Brahma is blackish brown and somewhat faint.

Their elders say that a person who has this type of ooh will bring a lot of good in his life, he will also have privileges that are not owned by others, he said, like the advantages possessed by Alia now.

"So that means because I have that birthmark then I have this advantage?" ask Alia.

Ma Mia just nodded with a smile.

He also said that when Alia had just been born, Mbah Arsa and his wife had already said that Alia would decline the abilities of the House, their elder.

Alia began to feel relieved after hearing the explanation and did not think strangely anymore.

But Alia was still confused where it was, because she herself felt that she had never seen a birthmark on her body.

"Alia.. try to look in the mirror"

"Why should I go glass?"

"Try it!"

Alia stood up and went to the mirror. He stood up and saw the shadow of his face.

"Look well around your face and hair" Ms. Mia asked.

Alia continued to look at her face and had not found anything, after a while she began to realize that there was a large dot with a diameter of approximately one centimeter faded brown on her forehead. It is located on the upper right forehead and is almost covered by the surrounding hair.

"Well, I'll see mah!"

Alia brought her face closer to make sure again that it was either the sign in question or not. After making sure, it turned out to be a blackish brown birthmark that was meant by Bu Mia.

"This is mah?"

Alia immediately showed it to her name, while her mother just smiled signifying that it was true.

"I have never been sober before..."

"You want to know one more thing?" ask Mia Ma.

Alia immediately nodded, she was very curious about what Bu Mia would show. Ms. Mia unbuttoned her shirt at the top and pulled and showed it to Alia.

She saw a blackish brown birthmark also on Ms Mia's body, just below her right neck. But the shape is wider and irregular like spilled ink.

"Means mom too?"

Ma Mia nodded with a smile.

"But the advantages of the person must be different, no one is the same" explained Ms. Mia.

"But mom knows a lot about what's going to happen, and it's all mostly true"

_____------______

Soon after, Imah's grandmother came to tell her that Wanda's condition was getting worse, she asked Ms. Mia to help take care of her.

Ms. Mia immediately went and asked Alia to take care of Mr. Aji and Sita.

Time passed, the day became darker, at that time Mr. Aji was feeling very good and he decided to look at Grandma Wanda.

After finishing praying Aji sir, Alia and Sita together headed to Wanda's grandmother's house. Ms. Mia was well aware that Grandma Wanda's condition was very severe, her pain was not only a stroke, she also had a long-standing illness that was difficult to cure, she said, but he refused to be taken to the hospital because he did not want to bother people to wait for him. So he only asked for treatment at home.

Alia, Aji sir and Sita got there, they prayed together for Wanda's grandmother. Finally, Ms. Mia asked Alia to read Yasin's letter.

Alia suddenly felt uneasy, she recalled the incident in the hospital the other day.

But Alia could not refuse her mother's order.

Alia began to read Yasin's letter by putting a glass of water in front of him.

Then drink the water to Grandma Wanda after finished reading Yasin's letter.

"Alia, Sita you guys go home first yeah"

Alia and Sita also walked home, after arriving home as usual Alia immediately washed her hands, feet and face, then she went into the room to rest.

Alia sat down and leaned against the wall while thinking about Grandma Wanda's state.

"Maybe it's not long?"

Alia continued to mutter in her heart until she unconsciously began to fall asleep.

The dawn prayer had rumbled, Alia was still asleep. Tok tok shop!!! suddenly there was a knock on the door but Alia did not hear it. Sita who had awoken immediately opened the door and it turned out to be her father.

"Where are you?" ask Mr. Aji.

"Still sleeping pah" replied Sita.

"get up, let's go to Grandma Wanda's house now"

Sita nodded then went to Alia's room and woke her up.

"So wake up!!" Sita shook Alia's body until she finally woke up.

Sita tells Alia to get ready for Wanda's grandmother's house, she also says that Wanda's grandmother is dead.

"What's!? died on? what time?" alia asked in shock.

"Say, it was two in the morning" replied Sita.

Alia then woke up and looked at the wall clock, it was five in the morning, she immediately took ablution for dawn prayer and rushed to the house of Grandma Wanda.

As soon as Alia arrived, it turned out that her body would be bathed, she immediately joined to make the body of Grandma Wanda and then forgive and prepare it to be buried immediately.

Before that they also did not forget to solicit the body and pray for it first.

Suddenly Alia's attention was distracted by Sasi's grandmother who remained sitting still, she looked neither sad nor crying.

Alia approached him and held his hand. Sasi's grandmother then held Alia's hand tightly and cried.

"Mr. Don't be sad anymore..."

"I don't have anyone anymore"

Her tears continued to flow, and it also made Alia's tears begin to drip helplessly looking at the sadness of Sasi's grandmother who is now a stick of kara.

"You're going to the funeral!" pinta grandma Sasi.

"Yes Nek, I'm definitely coming"

Sasi's grandmother let go of her hand then walked towards her room. Once the body is ready, they begin to take it to the cemetery to bury it immediately.
