Children Light
Vanity

While staring at the ceiling of her new room, Wulan let out a long sigh. I don't know why she doesn't feel good. He felt troubled. He dislikes seeing how only Rara can communicate with Arthur when Arthur transforms into a cat.

Indeed, he should not blame Rara, but how, it feels so soon to see Rara now. At that time Rara only managed to lift a pen as high as half a meter from the table Nainai and Mami and Arthur even though still in the form of a cat looks happy half dead, though Wulan had managed to move the chair as he wanted. Want the chair to turn over the snow in the air he could, but they are ordinary tuh. He believes his telekinesis ability has not lost to Suryo. But no one celebrates their success. Only Rara was happy, but it made her even more similar to Rara.

Arthur was picked up by Hazel. Nainai is also coming. Nainai said, Yeye also went straight to meet them there. I don't know what they're going to do seems so important.

The Dug....

A sound of falling objects made him flinch in shock. With hesitation, the squeezed glass controller of his window. The glass that had been blurry became clear instantly and he looked down and saw his twin crouching in the courtyard of the house downstairs.

Quickly open the window.

“Yo...kowe ngopo?”(Yo what are you doing?)

“Sssssst meneng o!”whispered Suryo.”Rara ndi?” (Sssst shut up) (Rara

where?).

“Adus.”(Showering)

“Yo wes slick.”(Yes it's good)

“Kowe meh ngeyel lungo neng nggone Aldi?”(You want to insist on going to Aldi's place).

“Ssssttt...ojo banter-banter! Ben Mami ra krungu's. Wong was at most just a dozen bars at most siji hours. Coaching bar kui muleh meneh.” (Sssst..do not hard! Let Mami not hear. People at least for a moment, finished at one o'clock at the most. It will go straight home again).

“Meh opo kowe?” (What do you want to ride)

“Seko kene mlayu neng trus numpak MRT station trus continue cable car. Bar kui mlayu meneh neng villa ne Aldi, kudune only half an hour press.” (From here run to the station continue to ride MRT continue cable car. After that run again to Aldi's villa, it should only be half an hour until)

Wulan frowned. What Suryo was going to do was clearly in violation of the ban that Nainai had given him. But it doesn't seem to hurt. They only celebrate their birthday once a year. After what they've been through it feels fair enough if they reward themselves with a little fun. Unlike what Mami planned, just eat with the family at home.

“Melu..”(.Follow)

“Heh? Ndengaren meh! Biasane invited wae angel e pol”(Heh? Tumben wants to come! Usually difficult to find).

“Lha I yo bosen.” (I'm bored too). Wulan did not tell me that the main reason for wanting to come was because he was lazy to meet Rara, especially later having to room.

“Rara piye? Hijacked ra?” (How's rara? What did not he take?)

“Ora try! Coaching suwe! Ngerti dewe Rara durung iso mlayu cepet koyo dewe.” (No need! Long later! Tau himself Rara has not been able to run fast like us)

Suryo is a bit surprised by Wulan's answer, usually wherever Wulan goes Rara always never misses. But it makes sense for Wulan.

In haste Wulan writes a message on the memo paper for Rara.

“I and Suryo go to Vila Aldi, at most one hour has gone home. Please cover don't say anything to Mami.”

A memo he wrote to Suryo. Suryo nodded and brandished his thumb. Wulan gestured for Suryo to wait for a while he had to change his nightgown. He put on his window glass again. Taken jeans trousers combined with a long-sleeved knitted sweater. With a sneak, he went out of the room to pick up his sneaker, he could hear Rara's voice

talking to Mami in the basement. Ugh.. they are still talking about the success of Rara lifting the pen earlier.

Quickly he returned to the room. She put it on a pillow and then she covered it with a blanket so that Rara would find it later. He believes Rara will cover up their usual deeds if he or Suryo does mischief.

He opened the window and lightly leaped the window sill of his room. Suryo was already impatiently waiting for him. With his hand he hinted for Wulan to follow him. Then he lightly jumped over the fence of their house that was two and a half meters high.

Wulan grinned, if he used to not be able to do it. But after days of training with Hazel, his record high was three meters. He took a swing and jumped.

Dug..with a slow sound his feet landed on the asphalt road. With a smile he nodded his head at Suryo and without waiting immediately started running.

****

Suryo grinned, his twin sister is indeed unpredictable. He had planned to go alone for fear of being told. It was discovered by Wulan. But not to be complained even Wulan who wants to come. It is strange this one magical creature. But one thing Suryo knows for sure he is sure he still wins if the speed match with Wulan. Leisurely let Wulan run first. He counted up to five times he had just started running.

While running, he looked at the surroundings around his new home. Unlike their former homes, this time they lived in a very crowded area. Many small houses cling to each other. Some look beautiful with a mango tree in front of them, but many look dull and reot. After running for five minutes, they reached the T-junction where there was a mosque and not far from the mosque stood two churches, one catholic church one protestant church.

One thing that Yeye said makes Indonesia a fairly safe country from daemons because there are still many people who believe and worship both in churches and mosques compared to other countries. According to Yeye believers get protection from God so daemons are difficult to influence. Therefore they are somewhat entangled with the daemon invasion in their new life.

In the past, Yeye said when telling a story, in Indonesia there was also a lot of commotion smelling racism and religion. But along with the progress of the mindset of the community the friction is getting reduced. Unfortunately, according to Yeye also with the progress of the economy and the standard of living of the community coupled with the decreasing number of people who worship. This is what Yeye thinks makes daemons can start invading Indonesia. Although Aunt Yesha strongly disagreed with Yeye's views.

Suryo has caught up with Wulan, the streets are deserted because there is enough night. In front of them was a turn towards the big road, He pulled and restrained Wulan.

"Do you know the direction of the station?" (You want to go to the station?)

Wulan.

"Tck! How is it?" (Tk! How do you precede?)

Wulan just grinned and stuck out her tongue. Running makes the mood return.

Suryo slowed down his run until he was just walking normally. Not far in front of him was a small dim stall. The shop is still crowded with people. Not willing to risk causing an uproar, Suryo decided to keep walking normally. Although it was actually unlikely that the people in the stall would realize that there was a person running very fast in front of them. Because they seem to be chatting alone. They would never have thought that someone would be able to run so fast.

While checking the direction through his alkom, Suryo grabbed the hand of Wulan intending to hold him, because he saw many men sitting on mats held on the sidewalk around the stall. And usually, there must be one or two of them who are ignorant let alone see the beautiful Wulan even though until the world of doomsday Suryo will never admit it in front of Wulan.

"What is it about nggandeng?"

Unfortunately, his sister is also a creature who does not know himself super big. Not just to be silent in order not to attract attention, uh. even louder as Suryo tightened his hand.

"HIEMN....CUL NO TO!!!" (Hiiih...lepasin!).

"Tck!. Look o, iki meh dadi gentleman!" (Tk! Shut up, I want to be a gentleman)

"JENTELMEN!" (Jentelmen your head!)

This successfully caught the attention of some people sitting on the mat.

"Waduh waduh already a sweet night of fun dating!"

Wulan immediately turned his head and gave a gaze as sharp as a samurai sword made the person who seduced them instantly jump, wrinkle, smile wryly and throw their face, silent a thousand languages.

"Wuah.ayu-ayu gualak!"

Hearing that Suryo laughed, because it was like that beautiful but fiercely half dead. Yes, there is no perfect human being. Except for himself who he thought was nothing less.

Arriving at the platform waiting for the arrival of the train, Wulan's nagging still continues.

Suryo can't take it anymore.

"Well! Mengein O! Koyo radio is broken understand ra? Mbolan-mbaleni wae!" (Already! Be quiet! Like a broken radio, you know? Repeat constantly!)

Wulan looked at him fiercely.

"WONG KOYO KOWE YO IS KUDU NGONO! WES POLISHED WAE SIK RA MUDENG!" (With people like you, you should! It's been repeated and still doesn't understand)

"YO WES QUARTEPMU!" (Yes it's up to you) Suryo replied back shouting fiercely.

Luckily the carriage came, the sound of the carriage dampened their cries and prevented a world war that was about to happen.

Suryo threw his face and walked towards the carriage behind the carriage that stopped in front of them. Currently, he was allergic to being close to Wulan. He chose the seat at the back end. The further away from Wulan, the better.

From the door between the cars Suryo could see Wulan entering the carriage in front of him and chose to sit at the front end. Cih..why not go home anyway tuh child. If this is the case, it will ruin the atmosphere of the Wulan.

There were only two other people besides Suryo in the carriage. Understand it's night.

It only takes ten minutes to get to the cable car station. After this they had to change trains. The station is connected to the cable car station. It takes fifteen minutes to get to the cable car station above. Deliberately made a long time because the purpose of the cable car itself in addition to transportation is also for recreational viewing of the scenery. Aldi's villa is near the top station.

The train stopped ten minutes later. Quickly Suryo walked to the cable car station located above this train station. From the corner of his eyes Suryo could see his sister also descending from the carriage of the train ahead. Being still crap, he deliberately sped his way up, trying to leave Wulan. He wanted to ride the cable car not together with Wulan.

But apes....

Wulan also sped up her footsteps and ran until she was on par with Suryo. And the two of them stepped together to enter the cable car.

Wulan looked back, and was like looking around for something.

"Why?" suryo asked, curiosity trumps his covetousness.

But Wulan just shook her head . Suryo pursed his lips impatiently. Strangely enough, this sister.

The cable car door was closed. There are only two of them in it. Suryo clicked his mouth impatiently. His hands are crossed in the chest. He deliberately looked out so that he did not have to see the face of Wulan who for Suryo at this time was like a grandmother dropping by again giving birth to a child. Wulan also threw away his face. In silence they looked at the night view of the city with its lights flickering in the distance.

*****

Rara hummed a little, she smiled happily. Mami patted him on the shoulder.

"It's good!" mami said while also smiling. The two of them looked at the large inscription "Happy birthday" from the balloon they had placed on the wall.

"The cake's already in the refrigerator huh Mi?"

"It has. Mami went straight into the refrigerator. Dah Rara go up and rest first. Later at twelve o'clock we surprise in Suryo and Wulan."

"Okeeeee." Rara said cheerfully.

"Don't let it slip, Ra."

"Yes, Mi."

Both dogs followed Rara up. Open the door to his room.

There's no one.

Loh.....

Where is Wulan?

Rara bit her lip. Since this afternoon he felt something strange about Wulan. Wulan always avoided her eyes.

He did not know what he was wrong with Wulan. He walked to the bathroom, but the bathroom door was open. In a hurry he went to Suryo's room. Door strike....

There's no answer.

Is Suryo still craving?

Plastered his ear to the door trying to listen to the voice behind it. But there was no sound.

He turned around, and saw Sheba and Milly sitting in front of him. They looked at him cheerfully, their tongues stretched out.

Rara smiled, and she got the idea.

He looked at Sheba and slowly tried to ask.

Through his mind, he projected Suryo and Wulan. And try to say that he's looking for them.

Sheba shakes his head, and suddenly.....

Rara felt something she had never felt before. He did not know what was going on but suddenly he smelled all sorts of smells. He could smell the Mami below. Out of nowhere but he could tell the difference and knew that it smelled mami. He could smell the cake even though it was in the fridge. Smelly shoes....

"Yepuuugh...!" Rara turned and stuck out her tongue. He doesn't like the smell of his shoes.

But what he was looking for did not exist. He could not find the smell of Suryo and Wulan.

Don't-don't......

He went back into his room. He saw the window of his room open. He looked around his room. The blanket on his bed covered the entire length of the mattress up to his pillows was also covered.

Weird ...

Usually the blanket he trimmed and fold on the legs never to cover the pillow.

In a hurry, the blanket came. His pillows. And he found the memo Wulan left behind.

"Mamiiiiiii!"while running down the stairs Rara shouted.

The feeling is very unpleasant.
