"What's up, Dit?" aretha asked when Radit had just returned from the office and told her. If he's going to the town hall soon to discuss something.
"That, Honey. About Gibran's disappearance last night. If I read it wrong in the RT group, there will be further information about it. So I think I should come too. Moreover, we are now part of the villagers here. How's it? No papa if I go to a meeting with other villagers?" ask Radit for permission.
"Yes, that's okay, honey. Not until midnight, is it?"
"God willing. But, you really don't what if I stay now?"
"Yes, I'm okay. It's not Tuesday night and Friday kliwon, so it feels safer" Aretha said.
"OK deh. I'm gonna take a shower, I'm gonna go straight there."
The community meeting hall was deliberately made for an event like this. Be it a rally, a meeting between members or another meeting of a general nature. This place was made about 5 years ago by students who were there.
The activities of kkn students did have a little positive impact on the village visited. Moreover, the village was somewhat remote and a little far from the city.
All the citizens have come. There was a large table at the north end of the room that extended to the side, with a chair seat behind it. While in the middle of the room filled with chairs for villagers who attended. Chairs with tables will be filled by the manager and village elders.
"Mas Radit, come along too. I don't think so" said Ratno, who was sitting next to him.
"Yes, Mas Ratno. I happened to be home earlier. So I'm coming, '" Radit explained.
"So it was right when I came home, Mas Radit wasn't home yet, so I thought I didn't come."
"Yes, not long half-cooked Ratno came home I also went home," said Radit.
Their stale chatter stalled after the RT chairman started the event. The greeting was intended to welcome the villagers who were present that night. And when entering the core of the event, Mr. RT began to discuss what to discuss with its citizens.
"I gathered all the villagers here tonight to discuss the disappearance of Gibran a few days ago. We have been assisted by the police and some from Pondok Pesantren to find the whereabouts of Gibran which until now has not been found. And it turns out that the Gibran family finally decided to stop the search and summarize what had happened to the child."
The explanation from Mr. RT immediately got a response from other residents. They looked at each other with disappointed expressions. Though Gibran was neither their son nor close brother, the loss of Gibran brought deep sorrow to everyone.
"I don't and I don't want to give up. It's just that we don't know why we should be looking for Gibran. Moreover, we all know that this kind of incident is not the first time that happened in our village, and usually for people and children who are missing and not immediately found in 24 hours of searching, he said, this means that the child will most likely never be found again. Actually I'm hard on saying this, but that's the reality we have to accept."
No one commented. They aired it, but in fact what Mr. RT said there was a point. Later that night, the villagers stopped searching for Gibran. The Gibran family was not present at the meeting. Because it has been represented directly by Mr. RT.
"Hem, how sorry is that kid. Gibran was a good boy. Surely the family is very hit with this incident," said Ratno still staring ahead.
Although Ratno may speak for himself, but Radit who heard it also finally gave his comment.
"How many children have been lost to the creature, Mas?" ask Radit.
"If not wrong, there have been about 10 people in the last 3 years in total."
"the last 3 years? Was it before her that there was no such thing, Mas?"
"Actually the existence of this genie has become a hereditary legend. From my childhood, my parents always said that I should not go out in the evening, especially when the magrib. The doors and windows of the house should also be closed while saying basmalah."
"Yes, my grandmother used to say that, even though I still adhere to my religion and beliefs before. But such advice does not apply only to Muslims."
"Oh, so Mas Radit converted?"
"Yes, Mum."
"Jin is indeed believed to often interfere with young children and pregnant women. It's also in the Quran, right?" ask Ratno. Radit agreed.
Umm Sibyan is a genie from the female gender who likes to disturb babies and children aged less than 2 years and pregnant women.
That is why children who have just been born must be punished first so that the baby is not followed by this genie.
The work of the genie Umm Sibyan is to disturb newborns and children (usually less than 2 years old) as well as pregnant women.
Jin Umm Sibyan had a terrible face with big eyes and walked on the wall like a lizard. Umm Sibyan can also bind to a woman's uterus and kill the baby who is still in the womb.
As told in the story βjin Umm Shibyan With Prophet Sulaiman ASβ, this genie said he could enter in the womb of a woman.
It can even bind her uterus and clog with the aim that the woman does not contain.
"But ... The creature began to appear with such a terrible form about 5 years ago. We thought that such a thing was the effect of the incident that happened in the next village. Radit must know, right?"
"Yes, Mas. I-i understand. But that means the genie had deliberately come to this village to terrorize the citizens. I see, do you?"
"Yes, Mas. We've done a lot to protect the village from the jinn. All sorts of efforts have been made. Starting from the recitation, prayer together and rukiyah we have done. It does produce results. After the recitation, prayer together or rukiyah, the village is calm, safe and serene. But it only happened for a moment. The genie will come back. Terrorize us all."
"Then about the rules that say that the genie is only out on Tuesday and Friday kliwon, who?"
"We mediated with the genie. He said that. So we were kind of given a stern warning on that day."
"Hem, I really don't think it out. How could this happen. Hopefully there will be no more victims."
"Aamiinu. Aamiin's."

Since Radit left, Aretha has been sitting in her room playing social media. Connect with friends scattered across the country. Although now they have separated with their respective activities, but communication remains smooth. Moreover, coupled with the existence of Whatsapp group containing his old friends.
[Well, cool, Tha. Scary atmosphere!] Write Kiki as Aretha shares her picture in the middle of the tea garden. Added to the view behind it which shows the hill.
[When is it there, Tha? A long time? Would it move forever there?] ask Dedi.
[You want to be a village girl, huh, Tha?] keep Ari.
[Hust, already no girl. π€«] Danu added.
[Anjir, si Danu. π€£] timpal Dedi.
[Ye, is that man a virgin?] Aretha began to appear when her name was called.
[Still! Your question is hurting my heart, yes Ukhti!] sahut Danu's.
[Tha, obviously still a virgin. He has been single all his life. Haha. ] Dion also appeared.
[Heh! Agape! It's not that!]
Exciting conversation even if only in cyberspace. They were as if they were gathering together as they had done before.
[But, guys. The house that Aretha lives in is haunted, you guys!]
[Ah, that's right, Dan! Why the hell, Tha? ]
[Yon, it's not that I'm surprised that Areta's meeting these subtle-creatures again. But how haunted I am to be curious.]
[if the haunted house is I can't be sure clearly. I mean I know that in this house there are some creatures that are still clumping but it is here. But what made me surprised when I first came here was just one. Apparently this village is the same village Kalimati Hamlet.]
[Well! Seriously lo!]
[Eh, budu. Which Kalimati hamlet?]
[That, that Danu almost became demit food there. ]
[Seriously, Tha? A second what?!]
His friends are so enthusiastic to hear that Areta lives near the place that once almost took his life and Danu.
[Seriously. And as a result I have to face again the terror of Umm Sibyan. Worse yet, this terror is truly crazier than ever.]
[What's crazy, Tha? π Anjir, not to mention I'm scared, guys!]
[Heh! You're also next door, scared! π ] Doni's nag.
[So, there is one rule in this village that everyone must obey. The rules are the same as in Kalimati Hamlet.]
[Oh, who can't go out at night?]
[Yes. The only difference here, it applies only to Tuesday and Friday night kliwon. So if besides those nights it's normal. There's even a patrol here. All windows and doors should be closed and curtains should not be opened. Plus before night we are required to sow salt near the doors and windows that are outside. It's really tight here.]
[Continues? What crazy thing did you want to tell that story about?] ask Kiki impatiently.
[So yesterday there was a little kid who was kidnapped with Umm Sibyan. If it's not wrong of what I'm hearing, he accidentally saw the genie in the window of his room. So look at each other that way. Well, that's when Gibran, the boy's name, was brought with him the genie. Until now I have not met and this is going to enter the third day. But it is said that if there is a child or anyone who was kidnapped with the genie, and within 24 hours did not meet, then the person will certainly not be found again.]
[Agir! So that kid didn't meet until now, and he won't see you forever? ]
[Yes. He said that anyway. I just don't know the next information yet. This is Si Radit again at a community meeting he said to discuss this issue. But not yet home.]
[Heh! Dit, you can usually leave your wife in a haunted house like that alone. So mean!] sumpat Danu's.
[Whispering lo, Dan. Don't be a stove. ]Radit turned out to have been listening to his friends talk since.
[Well, nyaut, Tha. That's the man you told me to go back, Tha.]
[I'll be home soon, honey.] Radit said he didn't respond to Danu's words.
[Yes, honey. Hearts to go home. Not finished yet? What outcome?]
[Damn! My soul is shaking so much! π] Dion responds.
[Lebay! The feeling from before I was the same Radit like this in front of you, it's okay. Why is he now a baperan? ]
[So it's too bad, Tha. Her singles are rooted. So liver disease happens.] said Dedi.
[Yes, Mr. Radit. What a result it is! I am also waiting for your answer!] kiki Tukas.
[Yes the same as what Areta said earlier. The search for Gibran has been stopped. Because the victim's family has broken up. They understand that Gibran will never be found again. That's what they said just now. Police also helped with the search. Prayer together is also done. Hem, pity in my opinion. I don't know how to be his parents. ]
[But why use kidnap? It's not just a regular annoyance, is it? ] ask Doni.
[Heh! It's so nice to say 'common bother'! You have not been disturbed by the genie! ] nagging Danu.
[Ah, it's important you're still alive, Dan. No, don't get soaked that's why!]
[That's why the concept became a wewegombel kayak, Dek? That's really Umm Sibyan what wewe gombel?] ask Arden who just showed up.
[That's also what I'm confused about, brother. Before he kidnapped Gibran, the genie had entered my house. He's on the second floor, the master room. But I'm the same Radit kept praying the same dhikr. He left, but instead kidnap a child. π₯² I really feel wrong. π]
[Why should I feel guilty? What you did was right. You're just trying to defend yourself from the jinn's interference. But if it turns out that the genie is actually attacking others, yes it's a risk. Hem, may the child be given his best.]
[Seriously? That genie has entered your house? How can? ]
[And the upper room is again renovated. Well, the real handyman apparently forgot not to close the curtains. Well this Jin will be able to enter the house easily if he can see the conditions in the house. Serem isn't? π₯² But it's wrong I don't check anymore either. ]
[How haunted is your house?] ask Dion.
After the question came up suddenly there was the sound of the door being closed quite loudly like being slammed with great energy. Areta's heart faded very fast. He even held his breath while trying to hear another sound that he might be able to hear other than the sound of the door being closed earlier.
[That?]
[Who just now, huh, shut the door so hard? Yang, let's go home! π] says Aretha.
[Eh, which door, Tha? Seriously? ]
[For example. The main room that the genie entered yesterday. ]
[Ummu Sibyan time? ]
[It's Thursday night wage, Dion! ]
[Oh yes, is it? I forgot the name of the day. ]
[Shortly, I'm on my way home. Lock the room door. ]
[Njir, the atmosphere is so tense gini, like a horror movie. ]
[Guys, you guys are me yes. Let me not be afraid.]
[Calm down, Tha, where are we going. Here continue to nemenin lo. As I prayed, Aretha.]
[Sir, you're dirty, huh? ] ask Arden.
[Yes, I'm on my period.]
[Whatever. Help me pray from here.]
[We also help prayer, Tha. ]
Aretha who focused on the conditions around her, especially the outside of her room, then approached the door.
"Kok kayak someone ran in the living room, huh?" ask him to yourself.
