Marlangens
My name is Mayang

After hearing Sella's scream, om Bagas and aunt Rani immediately rushed towards my room.

"What's the Cell?!" ask aunt Rani to panic.

"Well, it saw Marlangen was swerving a giant snake" Sella said, hugging her mother in fear.

"Snakes? whereabouts? you ngigo again or again want to ngerjain Papah same Mamah anyway?" ask Bagas sewot.

"That's Pah, Papah can't see that big snake?" reply Sella but dare not look at me.

Honestly I was very confused, why Sella can be hysterical when I am currently busy doing tasks on a laptop.

"Look at the cell, there's nothing. Marlangen was busy doing the task," replied Bagas a little snapping.

Sella finally looked back at me with her mouth open.

"Pah's Oath, I was actually seeing Marlangen was swerving a giant snake" said Sella insistent

"Here you go, you better get some sleep. Rather than hallucinating the no-no," grumbled om Bagas.

Sella rushed to her room and slammed the door hard.

"Sorry Sella ya, Marlangen. Maybe he's just kidding again" said aunty Rani softly

"You're learning it again."

I didn't answer, just nodded my head. I'm really confused by Sella's behavior. If he was joking but why is his face so pale.

The humming sound that had been singing beautifully had already vanished. There was only silence, even the cold air I had felt was already tasteless.

The next day when I joined for breakfast, Sella who was still eating her bread immediately stood up to leave for campus. He seems to be getting antipathy with me.

"Marlangen, sorry yes today you took a public vehicle first to the campus. Actually, om want to run just today there is an important meeting in the office," said Om Bagas with a sorry face.

"It's okay o'm" I replied with a smile.

As usual I waited for the angkot on the roadside in front of the om Bagas housing complex. Not yet the angkot that I was waiting to come, a black-colored car walked around me.

From inside the car came out a man who looked the same age as me, he immediately stepped towards me.

"Sorry, are you okay?" asked the man with a panicked face.

"Yes, I'm fine" I replied briefly.

The man seemed relieved to hear my words.

"Fucking car, even though it's back and forth in the service," said the man while kicking his car.

Then he called and told someone he was talking to on the phone to tow his car.

I also watched him, not paying attention to the man who even though he looked very handsome but what I noticed was a woman standing right behind the man.

The figure of the woman in blue looks very angry looking at the man who is currently talking on the phone.

I also saw the figure of the woman always holding her neck like she was holding in pain. Obviously he was not human, I felt an unpleasant energy as the figure of the woman looked at me. He's clearly a vengeful ghost.

The man who had finished calling turned to look at me.

"Sorry, what did you say?" he asked with a suspicious face.

"It's nothing" I replied as I walked away from it.

I really don't like that kind of ghost, a vengeful ghost. I more often find a soft figure who only intends to bother passers-by or people who are on a whim as well.

*****

When I was in the school toilet to wash my hands, suddenly the figure of the woman I had seen behind the man who almost hit me was standing behind me.

I saw her in the mirror, her pale face somehow scares me and is concerned .

Other than anger, there was sadness and regret on his face. Then in whispering to me.

"My name is Mayang"
