Chapter 7's


"Sick, Mbah, Sick! " Lirih Jenar with a voice that was not her.


"Nadura, Nduk! My granddaughter! " said the mother with a very incredulous face.


He wanted to get closer, but this circle was too narrow. He could only doubt seeing his granddaughter enter my son's body.


"Opo's sick, Nduk? " ask with tears in their eyes.


"All of it, Mbah. If Kinara Ndak drank Kinara's milk sick, but if he drank milk, he was also sick. Kinara doesn't want to be sick like this. Kinara wants to go with mom, but doesn't know how. Please Kinara, Mbah! " whimpers while hiccups.


My heart was so sad hearing that. What a pity he was, a child as small as him already felt his pain of torment.


Unconsciously my tears also flowed to hear his words. If I had been in the family position, I would not have done something like this.


"The person who has died is either a child, an adult, a parent. All alike! If not sent a prayer, it will be difficult to find a way back to his home. What if I never send a prayer.


Then he's gone. That's why our mother's father used to, often warned us not to forget to pray for them when they were gone. If it is only sent a prayer once twice, then the torment of his grave is not reduced at all! " The hunchback said.


This old mother was crying more and more, while covering her face with both palms.


"I think what Anis said used to be true. If we don't send prayers to her, then she will remain by my side for her entire life. I never knew it was torturing him! " said the mother was sorry.


"I'm sick, Mbah. Do whatever can help me. Sekar says I've hurt a lot of people, and only Sumpah can help me! " said Kinara who was in the body of Jenar.


I was full, the advantages that my son had, it turned out to help. At least this problem quickly found a way out.


"Wait there, son. We'll save you soon! " my grandmother replied sure.


He got up, got rid of the chalk powder that he sowed.


"Today too, call the citizens to send you a prayer for your grandson. After that he'll find his way home! " said the hunchback grandmother again.


We just nodded, trying to get up.


"Wait on! " said Kinara who was in the body of Jenar.


We all stopped, then stared at him.


"What about my fate, after this I won't be able to control myself. I'll find my milk mother and suckle on her again! "


The deg!


My heart pumped faster to hear his speech.


I looked at the grandmother, she just nodded and returned to sow the chalk powder around Jenar.


I just nodded at the grandmother's explanation. Although I was a little worried about the state of Jenar there. But I'm sure this will all be over soon.


"You must remain here until prayer is over! After that you can go home! " said the old grandmother.


I just nodded, before Mas Damar went out to get a change of clothes for me and helped this mother to call the citizens here.


Sekar realized earlier was still a herd near his sister who fell asleep after finishing in a chalk circle.


He seemed to be smiling happily at the present situation. Because his friend will soon get his way home.


The day has begun in the evening, after having prepared all the cakes and the needs of sudden tahlilan, the residents have also started to arrive.


They are very happy, after two years finally Kinara will be sent a prayer. There will be no more milk mother victims like the one that happened to that Master.


Tahlil has started reading, while I who was in the room with Jenar, can only hear from inside.


The grandmother also chose to go home. He will come if tahlil is finished reading.


Tumben has not fallen asleep at this hour. He was still playing and laughing alone. Like I was joking with someone. The habits of the child.


Every verse of God that is recited to send prayers, the body of Jenar will move a little, like a person hit by an electric sting.


Simultaneously, Sekar also turned his head towards her. It's like saying no.


"What's up, Sekar? " ask me curious.


He looked at me, then looked back at Jenar.


He flinched, before the end of his run towards me.


"What's up, kid? " ask me confused.


She hugged me tightly, without answering my words. His hands even held my clothes firmly, and his face he sank right in my chest.


"Why are you, why are you so sad? " ask me again. Trying to loosen up a hug.


Chequek!


The door opened, revealing the hunchback grandmother with a serious face.


"It's time he left! "
