DEVIL SNARES
CHAPTER 1
🍀 PROLOG 🍀
That morning, a woman slowly stepped on her feet. The woman walked down the cold, dirty floor of the house, out of her room. The whole body aches and crumbles dimly, Ningsih-name. However, strangely enough, he did not see any scars. Faintly, the woman recalled last night's events.
'If I don't follow my friend's advice.' Ningsih's mind churns. 'Ahh, I hope it's true. Jin who married me last night, may bring me wealth. I am tired of living with Mas Agus with all his troubles." he added in his heart.
Agus is the husband of Ningsih. They were married for three years and had a son of a year, named Wahyu Putra Sadewa. Ningsih deliberately told Agus to take Wahyu to the house of his grandmother-mother from Agus in the next village so that he could perform a ritual.
Ritual - Married to Jin - taught by Ningsih's friend, named Ratih. The coach has been doing it for a few years. She managed to become rich after marrying three times and her husband died all. Ratih invites Ningsih to do so with the stipulation, if married to Jin then every husband dies will be replaced with wealth that will increase.
This is indeed perverted, maybe this kind of pesugihan is often used as a shortcut to get supernatural treasures. The life of the husband of the pesugihan was used as a substitute for the treasure that Jin gave. Not only that, the abuser will become a Jin napkin slave and be performed after the ritual begins.
The economic crush made Ningsih desperate. Last night, the ritual was done. The genie he married did not show any form. Ningsih could only feel the presence and touch of Jin, even his voice was heard. Ningsih so enjoyed her first game with her magical husband, it felt so real!
According to the agreement, this morning Ningsih will receive a sum of money and gold in the hood of the service that last night contained offerings (interest and snacks). He did not have a closet to put the offerings in question, therefore Ningsih put in the hood. Ningsih rushed to check into the kitchen after her consciousness gradually recovered.
'Just look if Ratih lied to me!' her inner self hesitates a little when she opens the hood.
How shocked Ningsih. While opening the hood, he saw something he had never seen before. "Money! The money! Gold!" shouted Ningsih astonished.
I don't know how many pieces of money a hundred thousand and fifty thousand were lined up with some gold. Make Ningsih panic and immediately take black plastic (freak) and put everything in it. Ningsih was afraid that Agus was suspicious. After storing the crackle full of money and gold, Ningsih was shocked by the sound of people shouting in front of the house.
"Drag! Ningsih!" people outside the house.
Ningsih's house is still semi-timber. The door was also broken. This discouraged guests from knocking on the door of their home. Afraid of even damaging.
Ningsih rushed out. When the door opened ... many neighbors came to make Ningsih confused. From a distance, several people were seen carrying a person he knew.
"Mas Agus!" exclaimed Ningsih who was very surprised to see a figure who was carried.
It turned out that the man was Ningsih's husband. Neighbors tried to comfort Ningsih. "Patience, yes, Ma'am. Mas Agus hit a car at a crossroads."
Ningsih was surprised and asked, "Then where is Revelation?"
After a neighbor explained, it turned out that Revelation was still left at the home of Agus' parents. Ningsih thought Agus was still there for a few days. Ningsih also cried to see the condition of Agus full of blood.
"Patience, yes, Ningsih. It's all God's will. Give me your husband" said Mr. RT, who explained that Agus was dead.
Ningsih was assisted by the surrounding residents preparing all the preparations for Agus' funeral. Ningsih did not expect that the ritual was very powerful.
'It turns out that Train is right! Money came, husband floated.' Inner Ningsih who must either be happy or sad.
***
A hundred days later ....
Â
Today, exactly one hundred days after Agus died. After the horrific incident, Ningsih's mother-in-law was so sad that she became ill. Although today Ningsih held a hundred-day event of her husband's departure, the family from Agus' side did not want to come because it was still in shock.
Ningsih has never troubled that. For him, Agus' family remained his family. In fact, Ningsih gave the money to Agus' mother for treatment. Of course with the additional money the results of his pesugih married with supernatural beings.
Unbeknownst to others, Ningsih had bought a house in a new residential area. Close to the house of Ratih. Ningsih has also been looking for a Household Assistant to help and accompany her and Revelation there. His assistant's name was Mak Sri, about fifty years old but very deft and trustworthy.
Ningsih was still waiting for the right time and reason to move. He had to think of the right thing so as not to be suspected by Agus' family or his own family.
Ningsih looked back at the wedding photo, while stroking Agus' face in the photo. "I'm sorry Ningsih, yes, Mas. This is all for the future of Revelation. I don't want to live hard like that. Forgive Ningsih, yes, Mas and thank you Mas for sacrificing for the happiness of Ningsih and Revelation, our only child." said Ningsih after holding a hundred-day event the departure of her husband.
Ningsih actually hesitated, whether this was wrong or right. However, Ningsih's tears trickled down, flowing just like that. Crying over her husband who has been troublesome but now can bring wealth to her.
***
Two weeks passed quickly ....
That morning, Revelation was learning to walk in her new home. Ningsih has moved to the house he bought with the results of toppling Agus.
"Dear, don't run, yeah. Falling later. The revelation is not yet smooth that way," said Ningsih who was worried to see his son learn to walk.
Ningsih felt very happy to have moved to a nice and luxurious housing. Ratih's house was only three houses away from his house. He felt happy because with the money he had, there was no need to leave his son again to work rough.
The revelation was getting more and more excited about learning to walk and run. Surely Mak Sri is watching. It was actually difficult to find a reason for Ningsih to move.
Finally, Ningsih had to lie to everyone. He pretended to go to work outside the city and Revelation was brought along. He also made excuses to forget the trauma of Agus' departure. It was acceptable to the Ningsih and Agus extended families.
Ningsih was a little quiet because of her housing, quite far from her village. He was also looking for a place to sell, on the side of the highway that is quite strategic with affordable rental prices.
Ningsih was determined to use the money as best he could. At that time, he thought there was no need to marry again, no need to sacrifice others anymore.
For Ningsih, enough Agus-husband who became a victim to start a new life with his son. However, Ningsih did not realize she had entered the DEVIL's SNARES which were not that easy to escape or free.
