DEVIL SNARES
CHAPTER 5
🍀 Mystery Leaving Wound 🍀
A week after the fire, Santi and Reno kept asking Ningsih for her whereabouts. Ningsih was confused as to what to answer, because Ratih did not say his goal was to leave.
Ningsih was determined to open the small box, hoping there were clues about the disappearance of Ratih because the fire of his house had been investigated by police and suspected electrical zippers.
Ningsih opened the box by force because the key was out of nowhere. It turned out to be some letters. Among the letters was a letter bearing the name Ningsih. Ningsih opened and read the letter.
\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=
For my best friend, Ningsih.
I don't know how I said it. But let me apologize for everything.
I'm sorry, I've led you on my dark trail. I'm sorry I made you sacrifice Mas Agus and make Revelation an orphan like my children.
I regret that.
Ningsih, I hope you are not entangled too deeply like me. Repent immediately, Ningsih. Look for an ustad or kyai who really knows about situations like this. If it's too late, you'll be as lucky as me.
My magical husband is ensnaring me. I can't take it off because the lives of people around me are at stake, including Santi and Reno.
I don't want that Jin to snatch my kids too!
I had to end all this. That genie will let go of my children if I go to his realm.
Yes, I'm saying goodbye forever.
Don't look for me Ningsih. Because the genie took me away and won't come back.
After my departure, I hope that you can take care of my children and the convection that I set up for my children's needs to go to school and donate to an orphanage.
Please pray for me.
And immediately seek help!
I beg you to give another letter to the person in the name of the letter a hundred days after my departure.
Warm regards, Ratih.
\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=
Ningsih cried reading the letter. Unexpectedly, Ratih was gone for good.
'How could Ratih just turn himself in without saying to me? How could Ratih raise his children without any explanation?' ningsih Inner in tears.
For some reason, Ningsih was very sad and scared. Suddenly everything went dark.
Ningsih fainted, unconscious.
"Bu Ningsih, get up, Mom." said Mak Sri, awakening Ningsih.
Ningsih who was still limp from fainting, tried to sit and look next to him were Santi and Reno and Revelation. They were so excited to see Ningsih faint.
It should be how Ningsih explained all this. Ningsih could only wait until one hundred days for Ratih's departure and handed the letters to Santi, Reno, Ratih's parents and Dimas, a man who had almost married Ratih.
'Will the Milky Way also take Revelation?' batin Ningsih raged considering the contents of Ratih's message. Ningsih was very scared.
"JANSEN ... NINGHAI! WHY DO YOU DOUBT ME? OUR DEAL, ONLY YOUR HUSBAND I TOOK! DON'T LISTEN TO YOUR FRIEND. DIDN'T ALL THE TREASURE I GAVE YOU SO MUCH MORE? I AM YOUR HUSBAND! TRUST ME!"
Bima's voice boomed, disperse the reverie of Ningsih. For some reason, Ningsih always agreed and hypnotized with the words Bima.
'Ah, right! Perhaps the Jin whom Ratih married was evil. Not like Bima.' Thought Ningsih denied the letter from Ratih. Ningsih also re-believed that marrying Bima was the right thing.
***
After a hundred days of Ratih's departure, Ningsih gave the letters to the owner. Santi and Reno cried.
"Tante, this is a lie, isn't it? It's just a prank, right? Mama can't just leave Reno and Santi's sister!" the powerless Reno said he accepted the statement written in the letter.
Ningsih hugged Reno, "Patience, yes. Get your mother."
"Mama can't go, can you, brother? Santi answered!" reno shakes Santi's shoulder.
Santi was crying and silent. Then hugged Reno tightly. "Reno was patient, yes. Let Mom calm down. We'll go to Mom's grave, yeah."
The letter that Ratih wrote for his children was a false excuse. Ratih claimed to have a severe disease and could not survive. He also gave her funeral address. Ningsih was convinced it was just a fake tomb. However, at least this made his son not curious anymore.
"Patience, yes, Reno Santi. Auntie won't leave you. You can consider this Aunt your mother or your mother" said Ningsih while hugging the two children Ratih.
Regarding the convection of Ratih's growing business, Ningsih managed it while teaching Santi that after graduating High School he could manage it himself. Inevitably, Santi must learn to manage the business that his mother has pioneered.
"Santi, you're the first child and you're about to graduate High School. Therefore, you must learn to manage Ratih's convection."
"Okay, Auntie, but let me be alone first. Until my mind is clear, I don't want to talk about it" replied Santi as it passed. He went into his room. Lock the door and stay still for a long time.
Ningsih then moved to the home of Ratih's parents. They were shocked and very sad. Ningsih also promised to replace all the responsibilities of Ratih such as supporting his parents. At least Ningsih was trying to help.
After that the last thing is to go to Dimas. Dimas received the letter grievingly. He already knew what was going on with Ratih. In fact, he looked at Ningsih and advised her to repent.
'Shit! Apparently Dimas indigo. Even he could see Bima and understand what I and Ratih were doing, Ningsih grumbled inwardly. 'Why did he want to marry Ratih then? Crazy guy wants a life deposit!'
That's what Ningsih thought but it's different from reality.
Â
"Actually I want to marry Ratih so that she is free from the Devil. I knew there was going to be a war between me and the Devil and the victor would live with Ratih. However, Ratih refused. Ratih was afraid that I would not be able to face the Devil. Ratih looks to have given up and desperate.
Mbak Ningsih, it's good to immediately repent before getting entangled by the deceit of the Devil" said Dimas trying to advise Ningsih.
Indeed, Dimas was a pious man. He also teaches at a boarding school. He is an indigo. It was the opposite of Ratih and Ningsih.
'Is it worth it to judge me? Uh, sucks! I don't know if I get angry when he tells me to repent! Would he give me a lot of money like Bima! I sure don't, ' cried Ningsih inwardly.
Ningsih also passed away. To Ningsih, Dimas was just a handful of people who did not understand his circumstances. Ningsih is getting stuck with her own feelings. In fact, all of these mistakes looked like they were true with the reason that Ningsih maintained. The economy, wealth, ease and respect of others made Ningsih reluctant to stop until here. Ningsih did not realize that this could endanger the people around him.
