The night was getting late and the rain was falling. Mom and I are sitting in the living room. The latitude has been asleep since.
“Star. What we should do now nak”
Mother looked at my face with a slur, the stroke of worry was so vividly drawn on her face now.
“Stars don't know either. Stars just hope dad doesn't come home anytime soon”
or even no need to go back. I thought about it, where I might have said that to my mother.
Mom seemed to nod slowly. While I was busy watching our little television screen that was broadcasting the evening news.
“Nak, forgive mom who couldn't protect you”
I turned around, looking at my mother.
“Not what mom, I'm sure the latitude will be fine. As long as you don't know that latitude has the same abilities as stars. I'm sure latitude won't be why bu”
“Hopefully star”
She slowly stepped into her room. Leaving me alone in the living room, who still wishes you hadn't come home tonight and the days that followed.
....
“Kak. Brother where?”
I was shocked to hear the sound from my left side. Lintang looked at me who was sitting leaning on the desk chair studying.
“From watching news. My brother couldn't sleep. So get out first”
The latitude just nods and returns to pay attention to the ceiling of the room.
“What's up? Why hasn't latitude slept?”
“lintang was asleep earlier, but suddenly woke up. Because of the sound of screaming and noise”
I stared at the latitude of pity, but what could I do. I have also experienced something like that even smaller than the current latitude.
“What latitude can see if beside brother there are people?”
The latitude wakes up and sits on the edge of the mattress. He rubbed his eyes slowly and looked back right next to me.
“Yes, women wear putin dresses and long black hair. His face was pale kak”
He smiled and looked at me occasionally to the left.
“Who else is in this room?”
The latitude rolled his gaze around the room. But then he shook his head.
“No more brother. Only the three of us are here”
I smiled, latitude can indeed see the astral beings that are next to me. But not with the other creatures in this room, which number more than five. His specialty is not perfect. Privileges. I always call it that way.I try to eliminate the fear and annoyance that is in myself.
“serious latitude see no more others. Like a kid or whoever it is?”
I asked again to confirm the sign of the latitude headband earlier.
“So in this room there are only three of us. Is there any more?”
I'm shaking. How could I have told the latitude that right on his shoulder was a creature that was struggling and playing with his hair. With blood and very long nails.
“No. You see, there are only two of us in this room. And you said that we had three people. You must be kidding”
Latitude stood up from her seat and approached me.
“Serious star brother, next to sister there is indeed a person. Mom doesn't see. He looked at my brother from earlier. His feet are bleeding too. The red footprints were also on the floor. Tomorrow we'll be scolded by mom. If not quickly cleaned”
How could you possibly see the footprints.
“Mana? sister don't see no footprints”
Latitude walked right to the front of our wardrobe and crouched down in front of it.
“This loh sis. Sister time don't see”
He pointed at the footprints that were now in front of him.
“Iya sister view. But tomorrow do not need to tell mom if there are footprints there well. Later brother who cleans”
“Iya kak”
Lintang went back to the bed and laid himself there.
“Kak latitude wants to sleep again. Later latitude late wake up ”
I nodded and kept the paper that was already filled with scribbles and scribbles everywhere. My feet stepped and then spread themselves on the bed to the right of the latitude. I gently rubbed her hair trying to channel affection to her.
You're a good kid. I hope you don't know what you're capable of, or else you'll have the same wonderful fate.
.....
“You always come in the morning?”
The whispering from behind made me jump and reflexes turned around.
“Sister kevin?!”
“That's a question or a statement”
I exhale slowly, there must be something important that kevin will say. Otherwise he would meet me without the other “surgical glasses” members.
“There are important things I want to talk about”
Tuh.
“What matters sister?”
He pointed to the long chair near the mading and asked me to sit there.
“You can see the creature right?”
I was just about to sit next to her, but I stopped when the question came out of her mouth.
“Call brother meant?”
He smiled cynically. Standing right in front of me.
“Entah you are pretending to be stupid or indeed want to avoid the question. But I'm sure you do have that kind of ability”
I whispered, for what he asked me to talk about the things he already knew the answer. Really less work.
“You have such ability and don't want to tell us all. And it involves a man named Kinan, whose abilities are far below yours. What it is not like is utilizing and endangering the safety of others”
I'm shaking. I never wanted to put my sister's life at risk. I had warned him before we did a dangerous investigation that night, but the man now in front of me insisted on continuing. Why now he blames me.
“Kak. I never intended to risk the life of kinan”
“You have received an offer from Fika. But you have more ability than me. What it is not endangering the lives of others”
“I'm going to high class, so excuse me
I quickly walked past Kevin. Dealing with people who have unexpected personalities from people just seems to add a little burden to my mind.
“YOU ARE A SELFISH PERSON STAR”
That shout echoed around my sense of hearing. With a furious step I came back right in front of him.
“Then, what does big brother want exactly?”
He smiles. A smile that made me feel like tearing her face apart was made plain.
“I want you to go to school tonight”
Me? To school? tonight then? what kind of madman would want to risk his own life.
“I didn't tell you to go alone. I'll go too. So we're both going to school tonight. No rejection”
“For what I obey the wishes of that crazy brother”
He smiled cynically again, and I really, really didn't like that slight smile.
“For what?..I mean your words maybe exactly what risk will be caused if you do not obey my wishes. So right?”
I just nodded. At this school only the lira knew my abilities and she accepted it, something I am very grateful for. But not with everyone in the school, they would probably say if I was the unlucky carrier.
“If not. The risk is simple I will just write an announcement on the mading that the schoolgirls at this school named BINTANG AURELINA PUTRI have the ability to see astral beings. Simple but the consequences that will be caused by a bomb that is ready to explode at any time and destroy anyone”
He passed in front of me and before he actually went his steps came to a halt right beside me. The clap on my shoulder and the sentence he uttered made me more resigned to the situation.
“Think once again. Or the result of that refusal......I'll spread it out early tomorrow morning once”
The footsteps that echoed in the corridor made my knees limp and I could only sit while rubbing my face with mixed feelings.
