MYFATHER
Episode 40's
What other cunning is he doing?
Yudi had no idea how he could get involved in this stupidity. Unfortunately what was happening now was wet, acting as if he was a nurse carrying patients in a wheelchair, Yudi pushed the wheelchair occupied by Wayan to the backyard where the ambulance was parked. Fortunately they were helped by Doctor Assegaf, as an insider he certainly knew all the intricacies of the hospital so that Wayan could get out without anyone's knowledge.
There was only one ambulance parked in the courtyard, and the key was on Yudi. The doctor told the ambulance to be hidden in the garage of Wayan's house so he could pick it up later. Opened the back door of the ambulance and assisted Wayan to get into the back bench. Hiding a pushchair behind a frangipani tree after folding it as neatly as possible.
Security guards at the hospital gate stopped the vehicle because they did not recognize Yudi, who was carrying an ambulance, but in a convincing style Yudi explained himself to the new nurse while handing over the ticket given as well as by the doctor to bring along the key. The guard nodded and let him through.
”By also your idea...new driver...” Wayan chuckled from the back bench.
”Just follow what comes across my head.”
The journey continues in silence, Wayan is immediately sound in sleep while Yudi concentrates on the car and the road. They will arrive in Bontang at about midnight. Five hours was enough time to restore strength to Wayan so he did not want to bother the parents with questions along the way. Five hours passed until he saw the gate that read welcome in Bontang. Only then was Wayan awakened him because Yudi did not know where the old man lived.
Half an hour past the city gate, the vehicle stopped in front of the gate of a house in the settlement which was the company's official house. Yudi felt sad, while he lived in a cramped mess this person relaxed in a house that was like this airy, but someone with high working hours like Wayan does have the right to live in a house like this.
Wayan turned the door lock, stepped in, and turned on the light. The scenery there made them aghast; the dining table turned upside down, the glass fragments that had been the surface of the table scattered on the floor, the bookshelf rolled with his books scattered in all directions, recumbent chairs with broken legs on the shelf, wall paint peeling in various places due to the impact of hard objects that hit repeatedly.
”There are robbers?” Yudi opened the conversation as the two looked at.
”Those demonic woman must have been looking for me,” Wayan responded.
”What the hell is he looking for?”
”Entah...my equipment may. Because it does not find anything here, it is vented with frustration in this way.”
”Should we not report to the police?” Yudi asked.
”Then what do you want to say to them?”
The young man long sought an answer before then responded with a sigh of annoyance, ”True too! They will definitely not believe.”
Wayan nodded, ”We're clearly in the first place. That I know who I am, it's a dangerous decision to stay here because I know who I am.”
”Myrna?” ask Yudi.
”It wasn't hard for him to peek at my files. Just like I peeked at the file.”
”Sials. We first then..” said Yudi.
”Not necessarily...if we can secure some equipment..”.
”I now live in Danu's house but I don't think it's safe there either because I've ever satronized it
there.”
”Ku who has no reason to go back there, instead he will definitely come back here to kill me. Danu's house was a great idea.”
”OK, then we leave.”
Danu house is certainly not as crowded as Wayan house settlement. The condition of the building was dark, deliberately turned off the lights by Yudi before going to Balikpapan to distinguish Wayan. When Yudi and Wayan enter, the time shows at one in the morning. Yudi's stomach that had protested earlier was now silent, perhaps tired because it was ignored by Yudi who was busy with other things besides dinner.
”There is still time...” said Wayan opened the conversation then looked at Yudi with a serious face. ”Before you see their true form you should know first their strengths and weaknesses. It will be your provision when..yah, not without reason if you know he can catch you and the monster is never happy when it knows there are ordinary humans who can see him directly.”.
”So I have to fight him?”
”I told you, if you want to deal with me that you have to be ready, even though the life of the bet!”
Yudi nodded, ”I'm ready! Tell me everything.”
”Ku who is able to change into various forms, but the head without a body is the strongest form where he can release his knowledge. The shape allows it to float away and hunt prey that has been marked by crossing one place to another as far as possible. No one can prevent him while he is in that form.”
”Then how do we beat it?”
”Actually there is one way. The hard way. Not everyone can do that. I can show it to you later but rather than having to do that, it would be easier if we take precautions before the monster marks its victim.
”How can I help Siska then? Is there no hope?”
”I continue my explanation first, that kuyang is able to change into another form..” Wayan continued the explanation of the kuyang while Yudi, who no longer dared to interrupt, listened carefully. Most of Wayan's explanations have been known through research or what he experienced while at Mirna's house, so Yudi heard it in passing except for the part where the old man began to explain how to defeat the creature.
”Make a beat on methat we must find the source of his transformation. To change shape in such a way I must hide first his human body. The hiding place was guarded by high-level magic because he did not want ordinary people to find it intentionally or accidentally. Because if anyone finds his body and moves it, or shifts his position just a little, then he can no longer return to human form because his head can not unite with his body.”
”Then Mirna and Mommy Rose must have hidden their bodies in the house while they were in action.”
”It could be, although in fact they could hide it anywhere,” Wayan mangosteen responded. ”Like humans, kuyang can move spontaneously. If somewhere he encountered a potential victim who had been marked, at that time he could have left his body to attack with the body of the floating head. And herein lies his weakness..”.
”I listened,” comments Yudi.
