It's sunday. Radit holidays and automatic employees are also the same. Today Radit invites Aretha to attend the wedding of his office friend. Incidentally because of the location of the wedding venue which is quite far from the village, they finally set out together with a group of other office friends. They deliberately rented an elven minibus to transport everyone. The vehicle was more than enough than having to rent a bus. There were only 15 people on this trip. They gather at the office before leaving for their destination.
"Is this all?" radit asked as he inspected all the chairs. Because he was sitting in the first seat from the front. He can look back more easily.
"Udah. All the seats are full, Dit. We're on the road now, right?" ask Hendra.
"Yes. The road now. Come, Sir. We're leaving now afraid we'll be home tonight."
"Good, Mas."
Cars drove through the streets that today are quite crowded. Their destination is to the city next door, with a distance of about 2 hours drive. But the path they had to go through was the forest forest around. Because the condition of the area has indeed entered the rural area. So there will be more gardens, forests, and fields owned by residents.
Aretha sat by the window, next to her husband Radit. Radit, Aretha, and Hendra sat in a row of seats at the very front. While the seats behind them all amounted to 4 seats per row and all were full of Radit coworkers who also brought their wives or partners.
"Why's upfront, Tha? Suntuk?" asked Hendra who snatched the snack in Radit's lap.
"Lack of sleep" said Aretha relaxed without looking at Hendra, and was busy with the scenery beside him.
"Why? Bullied by demons, huh? How's story?" asked Hendra enthusiastically.
"Ck. What the hell, Hen. It looks like his expression!" syndir Aretha.
"Not a penny, Tha. But exciting. I'm talking about horror stories. Moreover, it's a true story. How, Dit? My advice isn't it?" hendra asked Radit.
"Yet. Change it. I'm still busy, not busy."
"What advice?" aretha asked and looked at her husband and co-workers with a sharp look.
"This is Hendra gave me advice yesterday. Tell us to come to the boarding school in Banyuwangi."
"What's the big deal?"
"Ih, what's the question? Yes, that consultation, Tha. About your house. I'm sure your house isn't right!" whispered Hendra while looking around. It seemed like he was afraid if anyone else heard their chat.
Aretha just smiled. "Thank you, yeah, Hen. On your advice. God willing, we are good. Okay, if indeed later we need help, I'm the same Radit will try your advice. But for now, we'll try to face it ourselves."
"Hem, is that it? Okay deh. Great in my opinion. Moreover, like lo that every day at home, while Radit work. You must have been frequently, right, bullied?" asked Hendra curiously.
"Well, that's all a risk, Hen. The proof is that I can survive. What matters is Radit's night at home. If the afternoon at home there is a Slamet Pak with Bu Jum. I'm not alone either."
"Eh, you know, when I first came to the house, there was a strange whisper."
"Whispers what? How come you never told me?" ask Radit wonder.
"Gue forgot to tell a story. Just dyed a few days ago."
"Keep what are you hearing?"
"So as soon as I entered the yard, this just entered the home page, you know. Not yet in his house. Suddenly there is a whisper I gini, 'Heart!'. I was surprised by this dong denger. To the extent that the cave looks to the left right side, and it's nobody around me."
" other friends may."
"No, Dit. The right position came to the house at that time, I was at the very back while the other friends had gone first in front Even they were also already in the living room."
"What kind of girl do guys sound like?" ask Areta.
"Girl, Tha!"
"Ah, the most."
" The time. Why talk about Teteh again?"
"Lho Why is it? Can't talk about teteh?"
" i don't live in that house anymore, Tha."
" even if you don't live in that house anymore, it's not necessarily Teteh not around you, right?" asked Aretha who immediately made Hendra feel his nape.
"That's not why, Aretha!"
"Ye why?"
"I'm afraid to let me!"
Areta actually laughed off as soon as she saw Hendra's reaction that looked frightened after mentioning her name. While Radit just shook his head with a smile.
After 2 hours of travel, they finally arrived at a residential village. There was a yellow janur that was encountered upon entering the Village Gate in front earlier.
" Is this the place?" ask Putra. Who sat on the second row.
"Yes, I think this is. There was a name. Azam and Vira" said Riki.
Eventually one of them contacted the groom. Fortunately the signal in this village is still good, so there is no drama lost that makes emotions peak.
"Take a. He said tell him to be straight, someone will pick us up," said Menik.
"Who?"
"The Azam family."
The car slowly entered the road. The streets in this village are already on the asphalt, so their journey is not so difficult. It's just that the surrounding environment, especially before they entered the gate there are still many wild forests found. Even still found monkeys in the forest.
"That's it!" point to Menik, as soon as there is a man wearing batik waving to them.
The driver approached and opened the car. "From Azam's work, huh?" ask the middle-aged man.
"Rubber, sir."
"Oh yeah, just come here. It was his house from here" said the man, pointing to the side.
From inside the car they can see the existence of tent decorations that are identical to those who are holding a celebration. Even the sound of the sound system has also been heard with typical dangdut koplo music. They also became very sure that it was the place they were heading to right now.
Because the road to get to Azzam's house was a little narrow then they finally got out of the car and decided to walk. Apparently the conditions in this village are not much different from the village where Areta and Radit live. The surrounding environment looked deserted and there were rarely any houses. One house to another is quite far away. So around most there are only gardens owned by residents.
They were welcomed by the Azam family. A wedding that seems simple but very close to the culture. They carry the theme of Javanese customs. Fortunately Radit's troupe had just arrived just as the show was about to begin. So they can see how the wedding procession with Javanese customs.
Because they want to see the event from beginning to end they can finally leave after the Ashar adhan reverberate. Although all day just sitting while watching Azam's wedding with his wife but enough to make their energy drained.
"Such a shame, yeah. Sleep me" said Aretha as soon as they got into the car.
"Well, we're in the middle, yeah. At most we reach the magrib house," said Hendra.
Finally the car drove and took them back to their original destination. Along the way Areta just leaned on Radit's shoulder while closing her eyes. He sleeps but his ears don't. So that every chat from Radit's friends could be clearly heard by Areta. The sky has begun to dim which means the day has begun to enter the evening. Especially throughout the journey around them mostly dominated by forests.
Suddenly the car stopped. Several times the driver tried to turn it on but always failed. The passengers who were initially asleep eventually became awake because they felt something strange about their car.
" Why Sir? A strike?" radit asked when he saw the driver had been trying to start the car.
"Yes, Mas. This car was just serviced yesterday. The present is broken" he murmured. He still insisted on blaming the engine of the car.
"Maybe we'll take a look at the machine, sir. Damar, try you check the car engine who knows something is broken.kan you can actually car," said Radit when looking back and saw Damar had just stretched his body. His face was as distinctive as someone who had just woken up from sleep.
"Hem? Broken? Yeah, let me see first." Damar then went down and checked the engine of the car along with the driver.
Seeing the two people were discussing finally Radit and Hendra decided to go down, in order to find out what happened. Areta who was initially sleeping finally woke up and decided to come down with her husband. He needed fresh air and his body had also been tired for too long in the car.
Areta stretched her body while looking at the scenery around. Apparently they are still in the forest area and unfortunately the streets in that place are very quiet and even since then they have never seen another car passing by.
"Father there's a tool, right?" ask Damar.
"There, Mas. A moment."
"Where, honey? Still long? What's broken?" aretha asked as she wrapped her hands around Radit's arm.
"It's still trying to be fixed, honey. Just a minute."
"okay."
The estimate given by the two of them is only about half an hour, but in fact it has been 1 hour they have not been able to start the car engine. Everyone got out of the car because they were bored and tired.
"Hungry!"
"Yes!"
"Try me to go there, who knows there is a house or shop so we can eat first while waiting for the car to be repaired" said Menik.
"Be careful" said Aretha.
"Then I go there."
"I'm coming!"
The other friends finally split up to find the existence of food stalls or houses. Moreover, the day has begun to dark and if they have found the mosque must be currently reverberating adzan magrib.
"Guy! There's a shop!" pekik Menik while pointing behind him cheerfully.
"Ah is real! It's engrossed! I happen to be hungry again!" said Hendra.
But just two steps Hendra walked suddenly he again heard a whisper. "heart!"
