Marlangens
CHAPTER 15

Last night I could not close my eyes after reading the message in the mirror in the room.

Is this Sella's prank or something else? Something evil, which has been plaguing me lately.

Somehow after the departure of the father strange things always happened to me, I knew from the first I had been given the advantage to see those who were invisible. But now it feels like a lot of other things are beyond reason that make me really scared.

*****

I held back my neck which from morning there was a blue bruise that I did not know how it could be on my neck. When my hand touched my neck, I accidentally held my medium-sized key-shaped pendulum.

I don't know why you gave me this necklace, but I feel it gives me peace. At the time I was twisting my necklace pendulum, suddenly the humming sound came again. The other day, Sella screams about a giant snake.

My room felt so cold and somehow I got so scared, I wanted to run out of the room but I felt so weak.

My bedroom window curtain also suddenly moved on its own and as my eyes unintentionally stared at the window. The figure of the half-snake woman was there, grinning with a face filled with scales and white eyes all over.

I wanted to turn my eyes away from her face, but somehow I got locked up. I can't even move my body.

Now the figure of the woman is seen through the window of the room and continues to walk towards me. I really don't know how, not a single sound can come out of my mouth to shout to call out to Bagas.

****

I could see the half-snake woman's tongue protruding towards me, very long. His flaky-looking hands were also trying to touch my neck.

As my eyes collided with his eyes and his hands had already managed to touch my neck he suddenly retreated quickly and roared like a person in pain.

As he was roaring, my body was finally able to move. I also intended to run out of the room but suddenly something hit me and made me fall down. When I turned around, it turned out to be the tail of the snake that had made me fall down.

*****

Suddenly the door of my room was opened by someone who turned out to be Om Bagas.

Om Bagas immediately ran towards me who was now lying face down on the floor and helped me get up and put me in bed.

For a moment I thought that Bagas would see the half-snake woman, but it turned out that the terrible figure had vanished.

I want to say what I have experienced just now, but surely Om Bagas will consider it all just a dream. So I chose to cover it up.

"Langen is just a flick of Om, there's nothing to worry about" I replied with a wry smile.

Om Bagas initially looked at me suspiciously, but after that he just nodded his head while saying goodbye to his own room.

*****

Today I didn't go to college, my body is still limp. But the bruise on my neck is completely gone.

Adit and Amel called me asking why I didn't go to college today, I said I wasn't feeling well.

Actually Adit also wanted to visit me but I did not allow it, because I was embarrassed to have to meet Adit when I was pale like this.

But when Amel wanted to see me, I immediately agreed.

Siangan Amel arrived at the house om Bagas and immediately delivered Aunt Rani to my room.

"Lo looked very pale, Langen," he said shortly after entering my room.

"The name of the sick man is shoots, Mel," I replied with a smile.

Amel accompanied me until the afternoon, I was grateful to have a friend like Amel who was very good at anticipating the atmosphere. I forgot for a while with all my anxiety.

*****

My body is gone now, actually, Mr. Bagas will take me to the doctor but I insist not. This is not a pain that doctors can cure.

When I want to rest, I hear the sound of a car in front of the house om Bagas. Out of curiosity I peeked at the window.

Turns out it was Sella with a guy who was probably her boyfriend because they were so affectionate. But my gaze was fixed on the figure behind Sella, a pocong figure with a black face.
