Marlangens
CHAPTER 29

Today is Bayu's funeral, I still can't believe that my best friend left so soon. Bayu is a humorous companion, he can always make others laugh. Given how tragic his death had left me unable to shed tears.

I'm headed to the funeral with Adit, Sella and Aldi. As for Amel he was already here when we came. Somehow I felt Amel was moving away from me, he didn't pick up my phone and didn't return my message. Maybe Amel is still in shock over the sudden death of Bayu.

The funeral was completed and mourners began to leave the cemetery. There is only the Bayu family who endlessly cry as well as me with friends. When the Bayu family was leaving, I tried to approach Amel who was constantly sobbing.

"Mel, be patient. Ikhlasin Bayu." Comfort me to Amel.

Amel faced me with hateful eyes.

"When that day I did not invite Bayu to acquaintance with you and the same friends you may be Bayu is still alive," said Amel angrily.

"What do you mean?" reply Sella nyolot.

"Lo must be feeling too, Cell. Since Langen is all around us. We all got shit. First Adit's accident, continue your death and now Bayu's death," Amel said by telling me.

"Peach your mouth, Mel. I know you again emotions, again sad but that does not mean you make a crazy theory so," Salak Adit.

"Design continue, it's up to you to believe or not the same me. For sure I don't want to be the next victim" replied Amel spicy. "Basan pesky carrier," he sis Amel as he passed me.

Amel's words were so disturbing to me, am I really the unlucky bearer?. Amel's treatment also makes me very sad, yesterday we were so familiar but now he looks at me as if I were his great enemy.

"Udah, you don't think about Amel's words, yes" said Adit broke the silence.

"You think Amel's words aren't?" many sad.

"No, ngaco you. Amel is again an error. You don't get influenced by Amel's words" Adit replied trying to comfort me.

Adit stopped his car in front of a minimarket, saying he wanted to buy drinks and snacks for us. I don't want to eat anything. While waiting for Adit, accidentally my eyes were fixed on the figure under the tree near the minimarket. The figure of a half-snake woman with a red scarf and a crown that was above her head. He grinned wickedly, making me realize Bayu's death was on purpose.

I wanted to go up to him and ask him why he kept on bothering me and teasing me. But every time I would approach her the figure of that woman would instantly disappear.

"Old sorry, it was in line for a moment" said Adit as he gave me a drink.

"Thank you, Dit."

"Sama-sama," he replied as he returned to running his car.

Suddenly I smelled a fishy and rancid smell coming from the back seat. I looked up at the back seat and I could only turn my eyes away. There I saw a pile of flesh and hair. As I continued to pay attention, the flesh slowly fused together and took the shape of a human head, Bayu's head.

I also screamed that made Adit stop his car suddenly.

"What's wrong with you, Langen?" ask Adit to worry.

"Dit, I want to go home" I replied in fear.

Adit just looked at me pity, he must know I've seen something. But she definitely wouldn't have expected who I just saw until I was scared. Bayu with his head crushed.

******

At home now there is only me, Sella and Mother because Om Bagas is out of town for business purposes. While Sella and I were sleeping in the room, Mom knocked on Sella's door.

"Langen, Sella let's go out for dinner ready." Call my mom friendly.

"Lo nyokap call your name anyway," said Sella seemed happy.

To be honest, I'm really happy that I finally want to call my name, not the devil's son anymore. Sella and I walked out of the room and were greeted with a smile on my mother's face.

"Let's eat together. Langen, I've prepared a special dinner for my daughter" said Mother in a soft voice that left me unnerved.

Without further ado we went down to the dining room whose table was filled with delicious food. Because from noon we have not eaten finally the food was slippery toilet.

After eating, Sella and I went to the TV room because I didn't want to be helped clean the dirty dishes. After a while mom followed us to the tv room, she immediately sat next to me while carrying a small meal for a snack.

"Mom, can Langen hug you?" tanyaku carefully.

"By pleasure, dear," replied the mother with her maternal smile.

I hugged my mother, it felt so comfortable before I felt something sharp and cold piercing my back.

"Tanteee, what's the tantee, Langen?" sella was surprised.

My mother ran off somewhere, and when Sella was going to help me, she was behind Sella swinging a wooden stick at Sella. I warned Sella too, but too late, Sella was lying in front of me.

"You take it easy, he won't die. The one who will die is you, son of the devil." My mother whispered her knife again at me.

So this is how I ended up dying in my own mother's hands?
