Chapter 8's

"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! " his words are soft.

Sekar. She seemed very sad to hear the words of the grandmother.

The hunchback grandmother walked closer to Jenar's body. Then remove the chalk powder that coiled on her.

Jenar's body stiffened. With sharp eyes. Then before long, he drooped and his eyes closed again.

"How, Grandma? " ask me curious.

"He's out! " answer her while staring at the bedside window.

A white smoke formed a human. It's obvious that it's a child.

I narrowed my eyes, the part that formed the hand seemed to be waving. Like saying goodbye.

"Cinara! " excited grandma Kinara who suddenly entered the room with a run.

"Goodbye, Nduk. Wipe is now alone in this world! " he said with tears spilled.

"Kinara could see the light at the end there, Mbah. There are many people there, Kinara will go home, Mbah. Good job here, yeah. Kinara dear Sewah! Kinara will pray for Simbah happily always.

I was stunned, when I heard the voice that was in the body of Jenar, now coming out of the mouth Sekar who had been born mute.

I can't really digest this thing that just happened.

Not long after, the puff of smoke slowly faded. Fly away into the dark clouds.

After that, Sekar also caught up with his sister fainting.

_________

The morning had come, after spending the night and helping the do'a for the spirit of Kinara, we decided to go home.

His sense of relief could once come out of this problem. Just stay back home and solve the Sekar school problem.

"I'm so grateful, son. You guys are gonna help us. And I also deeply apologize, for bothering you! " said the old mother before we went home.

Poor him actually. At the age of half a century, he had to live alone without anyone to accompany him.

His only son is dead, his grandson too. His son-in-law left after Kinara died.

The car began to drive at a moderate speed, dying this complex with a calm heart.

Jenar is still like a malnourished person. Silence with a puffy face. Sometimes he would ask, where we are and what we are doing. Because he doesn't remember anything about yesterday.

Ciiitt!

The sound of the brake squeaks that were pitched by Mas Damar suddenly, causing a deafening sound.

Seen in front there is a hunchback Grandma who stands with her next hand holding a cane. He was standing right in the middle of the road we were going to walk.

Mas Damar immediately went down, then approached in his direction. I also went downstairs.

"Move to a place far from the crowd, to avoid your child getting something you are afraid of. More importantly, being away from the crowd makes you feel a little calm! " his words were immediately sauntered away before we could ask.

How does he know what is happening to us? Who is Grandma?
