(Ainur Viewing Angle)
The raindrops still turn from above the sky, the tension slightly descending with the leniency of the storm. I took a break from being in class.
I told Akbar to talk about something but he disappeared when the teacher left the classroom.
“Haahhh” I sighed
“Nih” a box of milk proffered to me
I saw who gave, his face covered by the darkness of the weather and the room even so I knew it was Akbar.
“I didn't ask to buy Kok”
“Nothing, earlier. Oh want bread also”
“No thanks, milk only I received”
I take and drink the milk of Akbar's box, my favorite chocolate taste adds to the serenity within.
“So want to talk about what?” ask Akbar
I thought he had forgotten the promise he made,
“Itu...problem about Princess. Actually I want to talk elsewhere anyway so as not to sound anyone else” whispered to Akbar
Akbar himself understood and asked me to speak outside, as stepping out of the door of the cold air class was piercing the skin. We talked four-eyes in the corner of the floor fence, a place quiet enough to be serious.
“So?”
“This is the Princess's problem, you know.actually the Princess has the same ability as us. No...even more great” I said excitedly
“That means he can see the ghosts of our kayaks?”
“Yes, but that's not all. He can also see the past”
Akbar was surprised as well as confused, an expression I had expected earlier,
“Believe it or not I have already sensed the ability of Princess herself”
“So ya”
“Eh, do you believe?”
“Em, sure. If Ainur says of course I believe”
Hearing that my heart was pounding, ashamed of the words Akbar believed in me.
I told you all about the Princess from what she herself told me. Personality, family, and some past of the Princess I told Akbar.
“But looking at the past yes, I'm interested anyway but..the question is why did Ainur tell me?”
The extraordinary sensitivity of an Akbar makes a woman like me afraid, certainly not the ability of the Princess that I want to talk about but about the problems she experienced.
“This is how me and the Princess have become close friends, but lately he is a little strange I became difficult to get close to him”
“Well I feel the same way too, he's been unwell since Monday”
“Wow is really my inner sensitive” guy
“So I thought he had this problem, because his parents were rarely home and he was often alone I got scared. I want to help Putri”, I explained
“Bby, but it is better not to get too involved in the problem. Better to let him alone finish it, Ainur himself still remember the incident when we went to the parents' house of the victims of the school tragedy with Cindi”
I nodded, though,
“We are in danger of getting too involved, Akbar also already feels that the Princess is different from others, so Akbar is afraid of the same event as before”
Akbar said that because he was worried about the incident and then repeated, thinking about what the next step would be difficult.
“Then I have to how?”
“Well I guess now it's better we ask first what the problem is, then we can give advice and a little help”
My first plan was the same as Akbar, for some reason this man has become so clever and more mature than ever.
“Good, then later I ask Putri”
“But sorry yes I can't help now, next week there is still a race so if there is a problem just say”
***
After school I approached the Princess who was waiting for an online ojek order in front of the gate. Chance for me to talk to him about something, try to help him.
“Put” call me
“Eh Yes Nur, why?”
“Nggak”
All the questions and statements I had prepared could not come out of my mouth, either out of confusion and awkwardness I could not speak.
“Put you're okay? Your face looks pale” asked me to open the conversation
“Eh I'm fine. Just a little less sleep aja”
“Lack of sleep? Wh why? You stay up late to learn huh?”
The princess looked puzzled, but from her expression I knew she wanted to convey something. Proof he couldn't answer my question quickly.
“Actually..this is a bit difficult. This one I haven't told Ainur”
“Em?” I don't understand the Princess
“I want to tell Ainur a little bit, but not here”
We moved to the 12th grade, there was a long wooden seat suitable for a place to talk.
“Actually, lately the Princess is disturbed by delicate creatures. Ainur know that the new Princess moved to this area not long ago”
‘Iya”
“The house that the Princess lived in turned out to have a waiter, but strangely the ghost always appeared every night without any sign of arrival. In addition, the evil air is also great to make the Princess afraid, the Princess' parents always work and rarely go home”
“Princess knows the shape and likeness of the creature?”
“Yes, the Princess has seen it several times, its shape is large and uses black cloth, there is a horn on the head and can fly to and fro”
My hair stood up to hear the story of the Princess, not only me but the weather also added to the horror of the story.
The rain fell again along with the cold wind was still felt even though he was wearing a jacket.
“Why not tell the Princess's parents only, even better to move house?”
The princess shook her head knowing what I meant,
“Not ah, Princess does not want to trouble Princess parents anymore”
True, a terrible event occurred in the Princess's past involving many people. Now the past is in the grave and never heard from again now, but he told me about it.Where when he was lost or disappeared.more precisely kidnapped.
(FLASH BACKS)
(Princess 6 Years, Bandung)
The memory of an event when I was 6 years old, indeed I slightly forgot the continuation but before that event I still remember clearly.
Both my parents always went to work, since the age of 3 years I was ditikan with grandmother. When mom and dad came home that was the happiest time for me, even though they came home late at night I still woke up from sleep to meet them.
Because tomorrow they'll be gone again, and the cycle goes on until I'm lonely. Kindergarten was the first place forge knowledge for children, and at that time I also thought of making friends with someone.
It's true that I made some friends, but over time they stayed away from me. Not knowing what was wrong now I became alone, studying with friends in class is one of the things that can make me happy.
There I could hear the noise of friends compared to the big, quiet house, where I saw many children playing even though I did not come together, than in a big, lonely house.
I realized I was being weird, my heart and mind were not in line as if burning myself. I want to get angry, cry and vent all the anger.
If there was only one person for me to trust, so that I could tell you a little about today, about all the things that I went through.
“Hey, would you like to come play with me?” invite someone whose face I remember is only covered by a black shadow
I stood up and followed him with passion and sorrow, hoping that he would not do evil.
I remember waiting in front of the kindergarten playground, alone with the cloud overcast. He took me to an old house a little close to Kindergarten, a two-story building with old, mossy walls and floors.
From the outside it looks vines have spread out beyond measure, the floor was dirty and scattered rubbish outside.
At that time I did not know that the old house was close to the old cemetery, the little boy did not notice such a thing where the place or time was.
“Well here we play” he said with a tone of spirit but sounded cold
Inside the big house I saw many children gathered, there was the same age as me until the 7-year-old. I only remember the number of them about 10-15 people, there I was invited by them to play.
I never thought anything strange would happen, I was just happy to play with them. Although I never asked them what their names were, where they lived, or why they played here.
I just want to play, run with friends, jump and play hide and seek together. I felt it when I was with all of them, even if it was just one day.
Not remembering my sorrow, and a great mistake I took at that time, in my heart I intend to always be with them.
“I'm happy” I told them
“We also..iya..we...also...hahahaha” heard the sound of their laughter.
The old house was always dark, I remembered coming back home. But at that time my body was tired and without warning took a sleeping position on the dirty floor.
Before my eyes fell asleep, I looked at them once more so that I could also be in the dream. But the shadows will change, they change.I see.body...clothes..and their gaze.
Dutch noni clothes with blood under her dress, small creatures with white bodies and long tongues, tall creatures without heads pointed at me as if they wanted to eat. Before realizing it, his eyes were closed from exhaustion, like there was sleep magic on me.
“Tong...tong...tong.
“Tok...tok.
The noise of the claps and pans rang out, the ears as if hinting to wake up but the eyes and body still did not respond.
“Dek Put….Deck Put woke up” someone woke up but I still couldn't get up
“Princess wake….Put” voice father and mother calling
The touch from the hands of the father and mother on the body woke me up, I hugged them both like a child in general.
But after that what I saw was a big thing, in front of me a lot of people gathered inside the old house and also still left outside it.
I wondered and confused myself, what actually happened?
“Put you anywhere? How are you here?” ask mom
“I play with friends bu here” said poloku
Everyone looked at each other as well as mom and dad, after that day the parents forbade me from playing outside.
Learn..play piano...paint...and learn. No friends just a voice from radio and television for 6 years, then my family moved around because of work.
Although they had felt a little from their friendship as if away from me, so on when I moved the area.
At 7 years old I finally knew the truth of the incident.
The memory I felt playing a full day turned out to be one week according to this dimension day. Friends who invite me to play right form is a vision before I fall asleep, they are delicate creatures waiting for the old house.
The story of the residents spread quickly.The waiter of the old house kidnapped a child for one week to be invited to play. And a few days after I learned the truth, the ability to see the subtle and see the past opened up.
(FLASH BACK END)
“So yes, now the problem is the creature it”
“Yes, usually the Princess rarely sees such a direct apparition, usually just a glance or a black and white shadow. But the house's guardian creature was different, like he had a great energy”
“Yeah, then Ainur wants to go to the Princess' house!” resolutely
“Eh is correct?”
“Yes, but tomorrow yes. By him today still hasn't said the same Papa and Mama”
The problem has been revealed, just do the solution step. Akbar can't help now so stay me. Can it?
