Dear, Dolls!

Dear, Dolls!
Directions from Foreign Grandpa


"Haha!!" Emma laughed out loud.


The girl forgot where she was at the moment. Until when her laughter subsided, Emma realized that her attitude was indeed not commendable.


He had laughed at the story of the nelangsa of Mbak Kunti who sat beside him.


'Oh my goodness, Emm! Die you! You may forget who is sitting next to you! It's a kuntilanak, Emm! Not the usual Mpa-mbak..!' Emma rebuked herself.


He realized that he had made a fatal mistake. Moreover, all the visitors in the Mission Shop were now staring at her dislike, Emma immediately stood up and inched closer to the counter again.


"Spirit Emma! Damned doll come here!" Call the voice of the store clerk sounds loud.


Emma just got closer to the counter. And introduce himself again.


"I'm Emma!" Emma is short.


Learning from experience, Emma will not talk at length again to employees of the Mission Store. Because it looks ghost two faces is a grumpy figure.


"Select these two cards. Then get into that room. Open up and see what your mission is in the room. Then complete the mission. After that, come back here again to pick up your drawstring pouch!" The ghost of two faces with a serious look.


"Ehh? O.ok.." replied Emma who actually still looks confused by the direction of the ghost of the two faces earlier.


Emma then enters the room that has been designated by the guardian ghost. Then open the card that was originally selected.


On the card it says: Go to the Dream World and bring back the Reminder Fruit. Give it to the Mission Shop keeper. That's your mission!


Emma was confused.


"Fruit Reminder? Feelings of ever hearing it? And the Dream World? Where the hell is that?" Emma muttered in a soft voice.


Soon Emma's gaze lifted when she saw a door above her that read, "The Door to the Dream World".


"Oh? That's her door? Hm. It looks like this mission is pretty easy," Emma assesses her first mission was.


Without spending any more time, Emma opened the door in front of her and what she saw behind her really made Emma surprised.


As soon as he opened the door, Emma was treated to the sight of very large balls. Emma even thought that she could get into the ball with such a size.


The balls were in a dark room with no light, which was strange Emma could still see clearly the scene inside there.


Emma turned her head in the direction. And managed to find an old grandfather sitting in front of a small table. Grandpa was without sleep.


Emma actually did not have the heart to wake the old grandfather. But because there is a mission that hadus completed by her, Emma finally brought her steps closer to the grandfather.


"Excuse me, Kek..! Emma greeted in a soft voice.


Grandpa was also asleep. Emma greeted him again. This time with a louder voice.


"Excuse me, Cake!" Greet Emma back.


The second call from Emma woke Grandpa up.


Emma gaped in astonishment as the grandfather in front of her had known his purpose of coming to this place without the need for her to tell.


"Of course I know, little lady. Your inner voice resonated loudly in my eardrum," said the Grandfather.


"...?!what does that mean, Cake? Sorry. I'm a new spirit." Emma explained the condition to the grandfather.


"You new? No. Before her you had been to this Dream World, Little Miss. But of course you don't remember it. Because of the hard-earned Reminder you took, you finally dropped it in the river!" Imbuh the grandfather with an answer that is not understood by Emma.


But then Emma realized with the word "reminder" uttered by the grandfather. Instantly, he immediately put aside his confusion for the sake of immediately completing his mission to this dream world.


"Grandfather said a reminder? Can grandpa tell me where I can find him?" Ask Emma to the point.


"Well, remember because you've forgotten her. I'll be kind to tell you again, little lady!" The grandfather replied with a friendly smile.


Go to one of those balls. Then follow the river until you find sir plunging in the same. Not far from the waterfall, there is a Floating Yellow Flower that you can recognize from the yellow soil." said the akkek explained.


"Huh?! What valley was Cake? Yellow Valley Floating??!" Emma almost laughed at that moment.


But learning from her experience with Mbak Kuyang and Kunti earlier, Emma rebuked herself hard not to easily laugh at what was said by other people or creatures.


Worried if his laughter later can be offended that he laughs.


"Yes. That's exactly what her name is, little Miss. Wh why? You wanna laugh? Just laugh. I wouldn't take it personally like Kuntilanak you laughed at earlier" the grandfather said.


'Ehh? How did his grandfather know about it?' Emma wondered in her heart.


"Of course I know, Little Miss. Your inner voice clearly says so," said the grandfather, answering a question in Emma's mind.


"To.cool..! Great grandfather can read my mind too!" Compliment Emma with a look of amazement.


"Ah. You're good at emmuji, Miss Keicl. You can actually hear Grandpa's inner voice, too" Grandpa said.


"really? But.. I don't hear anything if Grandpa's mouth doesn't move?" Emma didn't believe what Grandpa said.


'That's because I always say what I want to say for granted, ' replied the grandfather in his heart.


And Emma was right to hear the voice of the grandfather. It was clear that Grandfather's mouth did not move at all.


"To.kerenn!!" Emma gaped in amazement.


"Nah. Kau masih ingin berlama-lama mengobrol dengan ku atau menuntaskan misi mu itu Nona Kecil?" Tanya Sang Kakek mengingatkan.


"Oh, yes! Thank you, Sister reminded! So, Emma can choose which ball? Then down the river to see the waterfall, then take the Reminder fruit in the Floating Yellow Valley?" Tanga Emma sekoaugus concludes her grandfather's directive.


"Just like that! Just find a tree in the middle of a pond in the Floating Yellow Valley. If there's a golden fruit, it's the Reminder you're looking for!" Clearly, Grandfather further.


"All right! Thank you, Cake! Well then, Emma's gone yeah, Cake!" Pamit Emma then.
