“The situation of the patient for the time being is critical, hope the father and mother can calm down, and pray for him,” said the man who wore a white coat while in front of Helven and Alia.

Alia was crying this time and sitting limp when she found out about it.

“Ma, relax! Don't cry, we doain Ocha together,” between Anya and rubbed his mother's back slowly.

“In addition, the bleeding in Ocha's eye is quite severe, so there is a possibility that his eye can not function normally again.”

Without thinking, the man made a decision.

“I beg you to do your best for my son doc! His eye surgery, so that it can be normal again,” said Helven.

“Good, we will definitely try to get an eye donor for Ocha as soon as possible. We hope you can be patient and pray for Ocha.”

“I will wait, and do my best for my son, Doc!”

Three years passed

“Aaaaaaa.”

Ckitt!

The sound of the screams of the girl who is now followed by her eyelids tightly clenched makes Helven have to stop the speed of his car suddenly, even though that night he did not drive his car at an above average speed. So why did the daughter scream?

“What's up, Ca? Why yell?” panicked Alia, when she looked at the sweet girl who was greeted with the Ocha call.

The girl kept her eyes closed, pointing forward. Right in the dark place when Helven stopped the car.

“Hey, calm down baby! You why?” sela Helven again who now turns her body facing backwards. The atmosphere that night, really gripping, plus only a few riders left who passed the quiet streets. Even more dark days make the fur crouching also felt the cold.

“Papa, just hit the fathers and their families who again crossed. Why don't you stop? That means we are the same, have killed people pa!” ocha shouted, with a sobbing that made Alia swallow her saliva with great difficulty.

“Astagfirullah, say son! There's nothing up ahead, you don't say anything weird! It's late at night, open his eyes here there's only papa and mama! Nothing else!” said Helven who is now trying to neutralize the situation.

However, Ocha was still trembling and yet dared to stare towards the front. This made Helven and Alia look at each other, and began to feel tense that night after looking at Ocha who was hugging her bobbin doll tightly. Without saying much more Helven rushed back to drive his car through the quiet and silent streets that night.

“But just saw Ocha pa! If we get caught by the police how?” answer Ocha with a hoarse voice that restrains fear.

“Udah, you calm down baby! There is nothing,” said Alia again while stroking the shoulder of her daughter.

“There is something wrong with Ocha,” said Helven half-whispering to Alia who this time clearly looks scared inside her, just push your shoulders and turn on the music in the car to just tease his fear of what Ocha says.

“Maybe just a hallucination. His name is also a child, pa! There can't be people like these nights! Papa just focus on driving, let us quickly nyampe home!” tukas Alia who is now also leaning back her head and then closed her eyes.

Indeed, that day the three of them had just returned from the airport after delivering Anya who left for out of town for college. It just so happened that the girl took the night departure hour. So inevitably Helven just followed the will of his eldest son. It's also what makes them come home.

Tonight, they won't be able to get home. Because the distance from the airport to the house takes a long time. While drowsiness has also attacked Helven and Alia except Ocha.

“No need to, we sleep in the car! Is that okay with Ocha?” added Alia, then looked back to ask for approval from the dreamy-looking Ocha still afraid.

“Back home ma, pa. Lagian here very serem,” firmly the girl.

“We went to homestay! Coming home tomorrow morning, papa is not strong if you continue to drive,” the decision is in the hands of Helven who finally still forced to stay at my homestay.

Eventually the two of them could only resign and follow what Helven's stubborn will was.

Shortly after, they stopped in front of a quiet house with a yard decorated with leaves creeping along the fence. As if not taken care of, even the house paint also looks worn. In the yard there is a pond of fish and plants are simple but a lot of garbage scattered. In addition, the atmosphere of the night also adds to the impression of horror.

In addition to the homestay there is also a large mango tree, some leaves have fallen on the roof of the house.

“Pah, sure here?” asked Alia who held tightly to Helven's hand who nodded steadily. Meanwhile, Ocha, was already in front of both her parents with great fear.

“Pah, mah, we sleep in the car! Not here,” said the girl again, visible from the look of her face that was pale and full of fear.

“Nothing dear, you guys are nothing at all to the coward, come in!” take Helven who made the two step inside with doubt.

However, when they had just arrived in front of the entrance. Alia felt a little calm, because there was a car parked next to her car, well without being explained it seems like this is one of the residents of this homestay.

“Tuh right, papa said what? Here there are many who stay, but mama has parno first,” chirped Helven, then stepped in followed by his wife and child.

Room 007, they rushed in and Helven let out a long sigh. Then put a smile on his face. Helven is now sitting on the sofa, then breaking it down. It looks so exhausting.

The three of them were now just sitting quietly, and that midnight silence was inside that not-so-large room. Until finally, there was the sound of a door buzzing on the second floor. Just contact it makes both of them surprised but another case with Ocha who had fallen asleep.

“That sounds what?” alia asked Helven, looking scared.

“That may be the person who just came earlier ma,” replied Helven casually and closed both eyes calmly. Alia was trembling in fear.

But after a few minutes, Helven and Alia heard the sound of water faucets in the bathroom of the homestay that he was staying suddenly lit. The man went inside to make sure his hearing was fine.

Unfortunately, what he heard was indeed happening, the faucet water in the bathroom was flowing so profusely, making him confused.

“Hah, this guard paid less attention to his homestay,” muttered Helven as he returned to the sofa approaching Alia who stiffened in fear while tightly hugging Ocha.

Seeing Helven already sitting beside her, Alia immediately hugged the man's body tightly.

“Pah, mom is so scared. This homestay is not really known!”

Helven was silent, gently rubbing his wife's back to feel calmer.

Only a few hours they were there, but many strange things that happened even disturbed their arrival. The homestay, which he said was crowded, really looked strange even there were barely any residents staying there. The disturbance came alternately, the clattering of footsteps, falling objects, the sound of crying babies, even the sound of women laughing.

“Mama want to go home pa, do not feel at home for long here!” alia Tukas.

“Udah ma, now we rest first! In part there is nothing, it's just the guard who is less attention,” Helven said again.

Prangs!
