MARANTI (FOOD OF THE DEAD)
EPISODE 68: REVAN OH REVAN

Revan walked a bit running after his favorite cars that kept rolling away from the boy down the hospital corridor.

“Don't run, Car! I'm tired of chasing!” revan yelled at his car.

The toy car did not answer. The toy continues to roll in the direction of its own wheel rotation.

Revan didn't give up. He did not want to lose the toy his father gave him. The toy car was too memorable in the boy's heart because it was given by his father as a birthday gift a few months ago. His father was often busy with business affairs, but his father never forgot to give gifts on Revan's birthday since childhood.

At the time of his birthday it happened that Mr. Ade was having business outside the city. Mr. Ade hasn't been home for days. Mr. Ade left home two days before Revan's birthday. On her birthday, Ms. Nisa bought a tart and held a small event attended by the families of Mr. Dimas and Mr. Jefri. Revan received a special gift from his mother at that time, but Revan still felt sad because of the absence of his father in that precious moment.

“Revan, let's eat! The yellow rice is delicious! Kak Niko had finished two dishes so delicious. It's Revan's turn to not taste mother-made yellow rice,” woo Bu Nisa while stroking Revan's shoulder.

“I'm still full, Mom. Mother is eating! Revan still wants to sit here,” replied Revan flatly.

Miss Nisa who knew the feelings of Revan at that time also continued to seduce her son to eat.

“Revan kangen same dad, huh? Dad must have missed Revan too. Only this time Revan's father is having important business that can not be left there,” replied Bu Nisa.

“Revan wants to chat with dad, Mom. Why did you turn off the phone? Revan didn't ask for a gift from dad. Revan just wants to hear dad's voice. Last year my dad was out of town on Revan's birthday. This year, Dad didn't come again? Daddy's not the same as Revan?” revan replied with tears.

Miss Nisa hugged Revan tightly. The woman was crying at that moment. Let alone Revan, he himself was also questioned lately by Mr. Ade.

“Revan, that father worked for Revan and for all of us. You should never doubt unfortunately father to Revan again, huh? Poor father there father must be hard work for all of us,” replied Bu Nisa while comforting her son's heart while comforting herself.

“Bu, that Revan wants a life like it used to be. Although he did not have a car, but he was always at home accompanying Revan to play. Not as it is now! Dad is now busy with his business, but I never had time to accompany Revan,” replied Revan as he sobbed.

Revan's words clearly hit Bu Nisa's heart. What Revan said also represented what was in Bu Nisa's heart. Indeed, since the efforts of Mr. Ade increased, Mr. Ade transformed into another figure. It is not as warm as it used to be. His figure became cold and irritable. And the most extreme is, Mr. Ade is rarely at home for business reasons outside the city. Whether true or not, but as a normal human being, Ms. Nisa also once felt suspicious that her husband already had another dream woman out there. However, again as an ordinary woman, Ms. Nisa could not do much. He has to go with all this. However, when it turns out to be painful for Revan, Bu Nisa begins to think about conveying it to her husband because Bu Nisa does not want it to interfere with the growth and development of her son, Revan.

“Revan, you pray that dad will be healthy and finish his business outside the city soon. So, I can go home soon. But, now Revan has to eat first so Revan doesn't get sick. Because if Revan gets sick, then dad if he comes home can't even take a walk Revan anymore. Yes, right?” woo Bu Nisa again.

Revan did not answer. She knew it was just her mother's way of comforting her feelings. However, if he does not want to eat, then his mother will be more sad. Revan wiped his tears. Not because he had lost his sorrow, but because he did not want his mother to be sad.

Suddenly a voice came from behind them.

“Who has not eaten since this morning?” That voice sounded familiar to the two people.

Miss Nisa and Revan spontaneously looked back. It turned out that the voice came from Mr. Ade who was carrying a backpack.

“Mas Ade ...,” greet Bu Nisa with a smile.

Mr. Ade saw his wife's smile at the time. Indeed, his wife is not young anymore, but the beauty of his wife is still completely faded even though his daily wife is bothered with home affairs that there is no end to the base.

“Ayaaaaaaah!!!” revan shouted hysterically as soon as he saw the figure of his father suddenly appear in front of him.

Revan ran happily towards his father. As soon as he arrived in front of his father, the little boy immediately hugged his father's body tightly. Mr. Ade raised his father's small body and carried it. Revan hugged his father as if he did not want his father to leave again.

“Say anyone knows again today? Dad, you weren't invited?” Mr. Ade pretended to ask Revan.

“Yes, I have a birthday today, Dad. I've been trying to call dad's number, but it's not connected,” replied Revan in a whining voice.

“Sorry dad yes, son. Dad is busy with work until he forgets to charge the phone,” replied Mr. Ade.

“It's okay, Dad. What matters is that Dad is here now. I'm happy, kok!” sahut Revan's.

“But, although dad came late. Father did not forget to prepare a gift for Revan, loh!” answer Mr. Ade.

“Oh yes? Really, nih?” tanya Revan couldn't believe it.

“Totally. Here, I brought a gift for Revan!” mr. Ade answered while giving a toy box to his son.

“Yes God! Mobile-Mobilan?” pekik Revan couldn't believe it.

“Iya. I bought this for Revan. You like it, right? But, sorry I did not have time to wrap it with wrapping paper,” replied Mr. Ade.

“Thank you very much, Dad. It's okay not wrapped. Revan knows that dad is busy,” replied Revan.

“Now you go down and open first yes the gift! I want to chat with your mother,” said Mr. Ade while lowering Revan from the top of his carrier.

“Yes, Yeah!” revan answered while bringing his toy cars up to the seat.

Mr. Ade walked over to his wife.

“Dik, how is home?” ask Mr. Ade.

“Good, Mas. At least there is no husband and father figure,” replied Bu Nisa with a slightly satirical tone.

“I've got a necklace, Mas. There are three in fact. All I need now is a father figure for Revan. Pity the child if the night is hard to sleep because nyariin mas continue,” replied Bu Nisa while taking the bag held by her husband and taken to the room.

“But, Dik-“ protest Mr. Ade.

“It's better to take a shower soon! I have prepared the warm water! Every day instead,” said Bu Nisa without being denied again by Mr. Ade.

After running for a few minutes chasing his cars, Revan finally managed to reach for his favorite toy. However, when the cars were already in his hands, Revan was suddenly startled by the presence of a white shadow passing in front of him.

“Who is it?” revan shouted while holding his cars and turned left and right to call the white-clothed figure who came and disappeared quickly.

There is no word from anyone else. Revan was alone at the time. There were no other hospital residents in the corridor. The lights are not so bright in that place.

After standing for a few seconds and the white-clothed figure he was looking for, Revan planned to return to his room again.

“Yes already, if you don't want to go out, I want to go into the room again!” revan yelled as he tried to turn his body back to his father's nursery.

As Revan said that, suddenly a gentle breeze blew around the place. Revan clasped his hands to his chest to ward off the cold. And from the corner of the boy's eyes was seen someone dressed in white and long hair was sitting in a chair in front of one of the rooms whose lights were not lit. There may not be any patients in it.

Revan sharpened his gaze towards the figure of the white-clothed woman sitting on the chair. |Entah got courage from nowhere, Revan walked slowly closer to the white-clothed figure who was sitting down and had his long hair draped over his entire face.

“Tante what?” call Revan to the female figure.

The figure in white clothes did not reply. He still looked down. Revan was hypnotized to keep walking closer to the woman. He seemed to be able to feel that the figure of the woman was sad and he wanted to comfort her. Revan fights his own fear of walking up to the woman. The more Revan approached the woman, the more clearly he heard the sentence spoken by the mysterious woman.

“Tanteeee ... Aunt why?” ask Revan with his charms.

The woman did not answer. He just kept muttering. Revan tried to sharpen his hearing to hear the voice spoken by the woman. Without realizing it, this time Revan was already at a distance of one meter from the mysterious woman's sitting position. And he could hear quite clearly the woman's words.

“Matiiiiiii ... Matiiiiii ..,” the voice that came out of the woman's mouth.

Revan was shocked after hearing the woman's words. The little boy was suddenly horrified to hear the words coming out of the female figure. He also pulled his head to stay away from the figure of the woman in white clothes. However, it was not finished revan pulled his head to stay away from the woman, the woman suddenly turned towards Revan and the hair covering her face was blurred so that it revealed a terrible face that was originally hidden by the woman.

“Hantuuuuuuuu!!!!” revan shouted as he ran away leaving the female figure.

As Revan ran away from the monstrous figure, Revan could feel the female figure chasing after him from behind. And that made Revan run faster to avoid chasing the female ghost.

Revan continued running with all the rest of his strength. What was on his mind at that time was how he could escape from the pursuit of the ghost and soon meet his father and mother who would protect him from the dangers that threatened.

“Ibuuuuu!!! Ayaaaaaah!!” revan shouted to call the names of his father and mother to get out of the room immediately.

However, Revan realized that under such conditions, the sound released by Revan stuck in his own throat. Revan's sweat was pouring so hard that his clothes were soaked in his own sweat. The little boy's heart also beat irregularly so panicked. Revan did not give up. He ran to his father's treatment room.

After Revan takes pains to avoid the pursuit of the female ghost, Revan arrives at his father's room door. Revan breathed a little relieved because soon he would get to his father's room and meet his parents. However, again Revan was surprised because once he reached the door of his father's room, there was a hand that grabbed his neck and caught Revan in his arms.

Revan was in shock for a moment. He felt that the female ghost with the terrible face had caught him.

“Do not! Don't eat me! I'm bitter! I rarely shower! Please, jangaaaaaan!!!’ whinek Revan with his eyes closed on the female ghost who was catching him.

“Revan!!! Revan!!! What's wrong with you, son?” the voice of the man who captured Revan.

Revan opened his eyes and was surprised that the one in front of him was not the ghost of the woman, but her mother.

“Mother?” pekik Revan tidka.

“Yes, this is mom. Where were you from?” mama asked Nisa with a feeling of worry.

“Revan just took those cars rolling out of the room. Continue ... there Revan saw a female ghost. Hence Revan ran away,” replied Revan while pointing towards the seat in front of a room approximately three rooms away from the room they currently occupy.

Miss Nisa turned her head towards the chair her son pointed at. He saw nothing in that place. He thought, it was just a little boy's talk that was just wrong just look.

“Come, we go inside! Hence if magrib-magrib do not come out!” said Ms. Nisa while inviting Revan into the room.

Revan was still feeling fear at the time. Cold sweat still flooded his body.

“Haven't met the Revenan, Dik?’ ask Mr. Ade who is agitated on his dip.

“Already, Mas. Revan was too late to take his toy car,” replied Bu Nisa.

“Iya, Tah. Out there Revan met the female ghost of long hair like this,” Revan said while playing the female figure he had just met.

“What? Female ghost?” pekik Pak Ade was surprised to hear his son's confession.
