The distinctive smell of roasted cassava always smelled every Maghrib arrived.I always think who's burning cassava around here,considering my house is the last house on the east.After that there is only an empty garden with lush bamboo trees and yellow rivers that are still clear of water because they are rarely visited.
Neighborhood around my house just trees.I have no neighbors.The nearest house is 5km from my house.
As far as the eye can see, there are only large trees and empty gardens.When the day is near night, the atmosphere is quiet like a grave.
For me, who has been 18th to live here is not a problem.I'm used to silence.
Towards the Maghrib, I used to close the door.Suddenly from the west direction lecture handsome man through the front of the house.
"Who are you looking for whose house?" I said to the young man.
He kept walking regardless of my greeting.I thought only the young man who was looking for birds behind the house near the river.Akupun immediately entered and closed the door.
"Mom, the handsome guy who often passes in front of our house seems to be from the next village huh?".
"Hussss".
"Ah,,,, mother, that's you bird-seeking guy behind the house, every magrib Nisa squirms really".
"Oh...it may be the son of Bu Mimin who just came from the city of Bu".
"His daughter does love to hunt, the son of the rich..".
"She saw it too, right??? his son is handsome, right??". "Oh......so that's Bu Mimin's son, sir????, the base of the city people was reprimanded did not want to look". "That's an arrogant bloke".
"Father has never seen Nis, try tomorrow if you go by again you ask to stop by, let all acquaintances, Just Bu Mimin our nearest neighbor".
"Ok sir....ready.....".
"This is Nis, you have not prayed, right??There take ablution mumpung your father has not slept, then you will be afraid again".
"Yes Mom".
I rushed out accompanied by my father to wudhu.Sayup-sayup behind the house sounds earthy owl.
"Ah....maybe it's just my feelings".
I immediately entered to perform the prayer, just before closing the door, suddenly there was a black shadow from the back of the house.
I quickly locked the door and ran inside.
"You why is Nis??, like being chased by a demon",
"It's okay, ma'am, she's just afraid of owls".
"You're this, surprise mom, don't you think every night that owl's your lullaby?".
"But tonight's another ma'am, like there's a mystical aura".
"You're the one who mostly watches soap operas, has already entered there, after praying and then sleeping".
"Yes Mom".
The night was getting late, but somehow I still could not close my eyes.
The black shadow was still clearly recorded.
I tried to read a book so that I immediately fell asleep.The atmosphere of the house is quiet.Maybe father and mother have fallen asleep.
Home on the outskirts, away from road access makes our family rarely out at night.Besides because the road is dark Father and Mother are also tired after a day of work.
Only on certain days did we go out for a walk or dinner.
My neighbor Bu Mimin is also rarely seen.Usually his car will go out in the morning and return in the afternoon again.
Even if there is a need, Mum or Bu Mimin will call each other.
