Celuluk Leak.

Her night.

The atmosphere tonight is a little different from the previous nights. The sound of lizard continues to sound non-stop, indicating that someone will come to Grandpa Surya's house.

From far away there was Leak Celuluk staring at the Gayatri house. Leak Celuluk was the incarnation of Grandma Dance.

At this time Gandi was going to the Wong Samar nation to see his mother who had just given birth.

Behind Grandpa Surya's house there were also many Monkey Leaks. They were all waiting for Gayatri to fall asleep .

" Gayatri, let me accompany ya ? If you sleep alone, then there will be something that disturbs Gayatri," Wayan Rasta told his daughter.

" It doesn't matter, sir . No one will be able to disturb me at this moment. Did you forget that since I don't eat meat they can't bother me" Gayatri explained.

" So still you're scared. Afraid of the state of Gayatri like yesterday again," said Wayan Rasta while looking at his daughter's face.

" Well , then you can accompany me, "reply Gayatri who chose to give up. He understood that his father must be worried about him.

Late at night, Gayatri awakens to go to the bathroom.

Leak Celuluk was dancing in front of Gayatri. But Gayatri paid no heed to it at all. He also wanted to touch Gayatri but his efforts still failed.

After Gayatri did not eat meat, no one dared to disturb. He also felt calmer and the fear that often haunted him also disappeared. He used to be so afraid to sleep alone, but after not eating meat his fear was gone too.

Unable to hurt Gayatri in the least, the subtle-bodies and the Leaks eventually left.

The next morning Gayatri helped her mother make a canang order.

" Gayatri, is Gandi still in the Wong Samar nation ? " ask Luh Ani while looking at her daughter.

" Still , Bu. Just yesterday he went there" said Gayatri, taking flowers.

" Even though Gandi just left yesterday, but I'm sure that you must have missed him. Moreover, you from childhood are always together," said Luh Ani while looking at her daughter who looks shy.

"Mother, what the hell ? " sahut Gayatri with a blushing face.

" Not to be ashamed of that . You will also graduate from High School in one month. And again in a few weeks we will also perfect your marriage" said Luh Ani.

" Are you not angry that I was married to Wong Samar ? " asked Gayatri curiously.

" We were angry at first, but what else ? The marriage has already happened. If we tell you to part with your status as Wong Samar's wife, it's very difficult. People who are married to the Wong Samar nation are very difficult to separate . If we force you to separate then one of you could get sick or die if you do not have the strength to accept the separation. Moreover, you guys have been together from childhood, and Gandi is also always good with us. And one more he is also the son of Kadek Ayu, so even though Gandi is Wong Samar, but there is still a mixture of human blood in his body. So that's why we accepted your wedding" Luh Ani said as she sewed a canang.

" Thank you, Mom."

" And one more. Same mother Grandpa Surya will open our inner eyes. You want to see the face of your daughter-in-law" said Luh Ani smiling.

" Mom will fight that fear like Gayatri who always fights the fear of Gayatri. You have also given Leak antidote oil to us, so the fear of Mom goes away immediately" said his mother.

" When will you open your inner eyes ? " asked Gayatri with raised eyebrows.

" Next afternoon . Your father said that Gandi was very handsome so I was very curious about his face,"

" After opening the inner eyes of Mother, then Mother can judge for herself whether Gandi is handsome or not . Oh yes Mom, why do you make so many canang today ? Usually not this much" said Gayatri while wrapping the canang that has been completed in the making.

" This is an order from Ms. Wati. He ordered a lot of canang because he wanted to be taken to Kereban Langit Temple to ask for offspring," Luh Ani explained.

" Why did he ask to descend there ? " tanya Gayatri was getting confused.

" The temple has always been believed by residents as a place to beg for offspring or children. The story begins with the Father of the King of Sri Maharaja Masula and Sri Masuli who was the twin King who once ruled Bali. Before the Maharaja was born, his father was confused because he had not been blessed by descendants.Then he asked Ida Bhatara Toh Langkir (Mountain Agung ) so that his queen could be given a child. From his plea that I was asked for directions to find Tirtha Salaka. Then a Brahmin was sent to find Tirta Salaka. On the way the Brahmin arrived and met a hermit in the cave, then there was a clue that Tirtha Salaka was in the cave which is now called Kereban Langit Temple. By the Brahmin, the holy water was given to the empress, and she eventually became pregnant and gave birth to twins (men ) and named Sri Masula and Sri Masuli. So until now Kereban Langit Temple in Sading is believed to be a place to ask for offspring or children" said Luh ani.

" Where's the location, Bu ? " tanya Gayatri with a face look increasingly curious.

" The location is located in Sading Indigenous Village, Mengwi sub-district, Badung. The pura is in Goa , but the Goa is not completely closed,"

Finished helping his mother, Gayatri went to his room to take a nap. Wayan Rasta was going to take the canang order with her sister. Grandpa and his Grandma are going over the shoulder .

" Gayatri, I want to go bring the neighbor's canang order here huh? I also want to buy flowers. Are you okay in your own home ? " question Luh Ani as she scribbled her daughter who was collecting the book she was going to return to school.

" Yes I'm okay . I'm always alone, too" Gayatri replied.

" What's it yourself ? People every day you are always with Gandi. If you're afraid of yourself, call your husband" his mother said.

" He'll see his mother again, when I disturbed him .Mother just calm down, I dare to do it myself," muttered Gayatri who immediately laid her body on her bed. He closed his eyes because he felt sleepy.

Suddenly someone kissed her cheek. The girl opened her eyes, but she saw no one there.

" Am I dreaming ? But I feel it's real" muttered Gayatri.

Suddenly someone hugged him from behind.

" Good day, my wife. " Gandi whispered in Gayatri's ear.

" Gandi, when did you come ?" ask Gayatri

" Just now. "

"Gayatri, I miss you so much" said Gandi, who continued to embrace Gayatri.

The man continued to hug Gayatri until the two fell asleep.
