Empty Space In School
44. Go after Dita

The Part 44

Ferdian grew even more confused followed by embarrassment as all the eyes in the room looked towards him. His whole body was controlled by someone. 

The young man tried to fight back with all his might, but he could not control his body back. Ferdian constantly put the food in his stomach, forcing himself constantly, until he finally heard the formation of the father.

Prawira kicked down the table while exclaiming, "Stop ALL THIS!"

Prawira looked intently at Ferdian who had not initially understood his orders. His son tried to control himself, but no matter how hard he tried, he was still unable to resist.

"HOW DARE YOU CONTROL MY SON'S BODY LIKE THAT, I SWEAR TO FIGHT YOU, BURHAN!" 

Prawira now turned her head towards Burhan who immediately fell silent withholding laughter. The banquet room became silent for a moment. Everyone turned towards Burhan who finally laughed out loud. 

Ferdian still didn't understand who his father was talking to. His mind was still with his body but he could not control it. The more he tried to escape, still there was nothing he could do. Finally Mr. Karmo asked his son to stop.

"Stop doing you, Burhan! You embarrassed my guest" he said, grabbing a cigar in front of him.

After Mr. Karmo said that, Ferdian's body stopped moving. Instantly, the young man ran into the bathroom and vomited up the full meal in his mouth. Her body was in great pain and pain after what had just happened to her.

"I'm sorry Mr. Kertarajasa. I just want to prove that your son is very easy to control" Burhan said.

Prawira stared intently at the violent man. Ferdian came back from the bathroom. He just understood from Burhan's words. The thing that had just happened to him must have been the result of his actions. 

'Have he been able to control or often control my body? Every time I wake up I feel pain and pain. Could my body be being controlled?' The turbulent Ferdian's inner held back the anger and confusion that mixed into one.

Burhan's eyes were now fixed on Ferdian after staring intently at each other with his father. He invited Ferdian to sit down. Burhan asks Loli to give green tea in a glass of clay to Ferdian.

"Please drink, son. It will be the antidote to nausea and your painful body" Burhan smiled with a grin.

Ferdian looked at his father who nodded his head in agreement. The young man grabbed the clay glass with trembling hands. The sweet taste of green tea slides down the shaft of his esophagus towards the stomach, warming.

"Other times, please don't be this sassy. Showing off your knowledge in this way doesn't make you a person to be respected, '" Santina said.

"I'm sorry, Mom. I was just trying. I can also prove to Mas Prawira about the name of Sukma rasuk. It's easy and fun, isn't it?" Burhan looked back at Prawira. Then, smile. 

Ferdian now understood what had just happened to him. Apparently this man named Burhan can do the science of Sukma. Control one's body with youth.

"For you, son," Burhan said as he looked at Ferdian's face still covered in sweat. He handed the king's banana to Ferdian.

"I'm sorry to have so casually entered your tribe. I want to try the extent of this science that I have learned. Anyway I want to melt the atmosphere. Here the atmosphere is too serious, hahaha." Burhan just laughed alone no one chimed in. Until he finally came back in silence. 

Ferdian refused to answer and accepted Burhan's gift. However, this man named Burhan had humiliated himself. Ferdian suddenly remembered something, when he was at school yesterday or the other day. He can't. He was also unable to control his body properly at that time.

"What's possible…." Ferdian saw his father. 

"I don't like it when you get into people's minds. You manipulated it in such a way as what you did to my son" Kertarajasa said. 

Burhan was laughing more and more.

The hero then said, "That's what I did, I have to do it, even so the boy helped me too." Ferdian was appointed by one of the committee.

"Alright, since everything has come, let's start talking about the agreement" Santina said.

"So, Mrs Aiko, how should I handle Burhan's Devila?" ask Santina.

"It's a different demon, ma'am. I can't control this demon either" Burhan said. 

"Have you found a girl worthy of the devil?" aiko asked as she tasted the fruit salad in front of her.

"Here, he's at school. Her name is Anandita" said Santina.

"She's beautiful too, Mom. She can't have me first, can she?" Burhan laughed bitterly.

Brak!

Ferdian kicked the table shocking everyone. He stood up and looked at Burhan sharply.

"What's wrong with your son, Prawira?" ask Burhan.

"Di, sit!" tell the father.

Ferdian remains unmoved. He pointed towards Burhan. 

"Sway from Dita!" exclaim Ferdian.

"Oh, you wanna be a badass hero, huh? You forgot that I could control your body. Want me to take that body lying on the railroad tracks and get blown away, will you?" threaten Burhan's.

"Di, same with Papi. Sit down!" Prawira looked back at her son.

Ferdian is not warty. Slowly the two returned to the bottom. The talks resumed.  They still agreed to target Dita's body to be made an offering to Devil Devila.

...***...

On prom night, Dita was on the fourth floor. The dreaded Empty Space. He meets his spirit Mita and also the Devil Devila.

"I just want company. After this demon sucked my spirit, I was alone on this floor. But this demon sucked all the friends I brought and locked him there" he said, pointing to the empty space.

"Who are you?" tanya Dita tried to clearly see the name mark on the shirt of the female ghost uniform. It says there's Mita Kusuma.

"Silence you're a sweet boy!" The hooded figure said to be a demon came, then pushed Mita and hit her hard. 

"This place is getting more and more exciting. I'm looking for new, clever, and delicious souls like you. Looks like you were the girl sent for me," said the demon. Get close and start strangling Dita. 

"Le-let me go!" pinta Dita tried to pull the creepy hand that was like the root of the tree. 

"Hmmmm, this is very delicious," he said again as he stuck out his tongue licking Dita's cheek.

Dita's starting to get cornered. The grip on his neck made him feel pain and start to have trouble breathing.
