Part 13 Travelling by Kak Faza

We finished eating. Rayi's sister started lining up at the cashier. I decided to accompany him because his two best friends were still fun playing games on their respective devices. Still sitting at our table, which now only has empty plates, cups and bowls, the former.

"Say you'll be home tonight, Ay," I said as she began launching protective actions knowing I was home alone for a few days.

"Okay, keep me informed, yeah, if there's anything at home. Don't forget to lock the doors and windows." He stroked the corner of my lips slowly, watching the passage closely while continuing to advise me with many sentences of advice or prohibition.

The rare romantic scene is now interrupted by the arrival of another pair of lovers. They stood behind us, beating. Of course Rayi and I spontaneously looked back. Where there is Kak Faza with his new lover.

The two friends looked at each other, but no longer the gaze of a pair of friends as usual. Their gazes were filled with resentment and hatred. Rayi is facing forward. Pretending to stare at the front of the cashier full of ornamental photos of celebrities who have come to this place.

I looked at Kak Faza whose attitude looked arrogant and haughty. It was completely different from the Kak Faza we used to know. "What look-look?" he nodded while glaring at me. The woman beside him was just slipping spoiled on Kak Faza's arm while looking at me cynically. Brother Rayi then pulled me so that I would face the front. Coincidentally the queue was already running, we also stepped a little to advance.

"You see, baby, the taste of our OSIS chairman, is terrible. Strange women like her were just on her date, "said Kak Faza, who I knew meant to insinuate us both. I turned my head with a furious look, while Brother Rayi directly snapped at him.

"God! If you set up a real one! Ngaca dong! Don't know the shame, this afternoon poke with another girl, eh now with her change! Get ready, you'll be invited to the hotel!" show Rayi to the woman. The lover of Brother Faza immediately looked at the man beside him suspiciously.

"Who were you this afternoon?!"

There was a fight behind us. Rayi's sister took me in her arms and started to advance to the cashier's table, paying our food bill earlier and leaving the place immediately. Kak Faza's fight with his new lover becomes a free spectacle at the cafe. But we are not interested in watching this and prefer to leave from here.

"Crazy, it's Faza. Why did it change so, she?" asked Brother Roger when I gave him a glass of orange juice I had just made myself. We chose to sit for a while in my house, to discuss Kak Faza's strangeness today.

"Don't let him be a playboy all this time, just humping," said Kak Bintang give an opinion.

"No. Faza is not that kind of person. There is something strange about him. But I don't know what, obviously it's not the Faza we've known all along."

"Sister, maybe not if the one in the body is not the real Kak Faza?" my many.

"What do you mean? Not Faza? So then?"

"Gini, Ay, do you remember Rachel's words yesterday?"

"Cie, I've called him to wear 'Ay' everything," mocked Brother Roger staring at us alternately with a soft look. Brother Rayi threw a pillow beside him while cursing. "Diem, you!"

"Where's honey?" asked Rayi again, no longer concerned about the reaction of his friends.

"Rachel says that a person whose soul was once held captive by another being must take a series of tests to ensure that the one who returns is his own soul, not another being's soul."

Brother Rayi was silent, nodding slowly. "Totally too! So there's a chance that the one in Faza's body isn't him?" I also nodded in response. Well, the longer I'm sure about who the real figure inside Kak Faza's body is. The demon!

"So we have to how is this?"

"There's no estimate of who's in there, Bil?"

"I saw something strange in his eyes."

"His eye? Why?"

"His eyes turned all black, but only for a few seconds. After that it came back to how it was. So there's most likely a demon inside her body."

"Devil? Seriously?" exclaim Brother Roger.

We all kept quiet with our own minds. The estimation I mentioned earlier was not entirely correct, but I was sure of what I said earlier. And of course we have to prove it ourselves.

"We prove it. I know a few ways," I said and made them enthusiastic.

___________________

This morning there will be a new period OSIS chairman election.5 candidates have been prepared in the school hall. That place will be the inauguration of the chairman of OSIS. The place is enough to accommodate all students, and is also protected from the sun. I'm sure today's show will take a while. And the good news is that today there is no lesson. We are only focusing on this OSIS chairman election event.

Zidan and I are also in the committee, because we will also be the board of OSIS later. Each class is taken by two representatives who will represent its class in the organization. Now Zidan and I have been in the crowd of prospective OSIS administrators. We were given a briefing for today's event.

All five OSIS candidates are already ahead. I looked at Brother Rayi who was sitting next to Brother Faza. The two look not getting along, even glancing at each other cynically. Yesterday we discussed the next steps, to reveal who and what is in the body of Kak Faza. Of course it was also a way to get the creature out of his body.

"Okay, everyone understands?!" exclaimed Kak Dimas as the chairman of this event ended the morning briefing. We all cried out in unison saying the word "Understand me, brother."

And the show continued. All the students were called together to cast their votes. These five candidates are not random people, which I obviously know that they are all famous people in school with all the talent they have. And, to be honest, I am proud to see Brother Rayi become one of the candidates there. He was indeed authoritative, had the soul of a leader. Makes me like it more.

He looked at me, as if he realized that I had been staring. Brother Rayi who was chatting with Kak Dimas and Kak Budi then raised his eyebrows while smiling. Her lips asked what I was doing. But I just shook my head while smiling. Then say 'spirit' for him.

My netraku turned to another corner of the room. There was Kak Faza sitting with a girl I knew she was from a 1-2 class representative. It seemed like he had deliberately spread the net again. They also look familiar and Kak Faza's attitude is getting brash. I approached, carrying a glass of mineral water that I deliberately mixed with water belonging to Om Gio. He said this water is powerful for harming demons and the like.

Walking closer, making my heart beat faster. My hands were even trembling, and I was afraid that my plan would not work. From a distance Brother Roger and Brother Star looked at me anxiously. They nodded, pointing their thumbs at me. My steps are getting closer to Brother Faza. He who was busy chatting as if he was unaware of my arrival.

Getting closer, I began planning this watering action to Kak Faza. As I walked past him, suddenly my hand was firmly blocked by Brother Faza. Even I was quite in pain, because the grip of his hand really hurt me. "Aw, Brother. What the fuck. It hurts!" I tried to take my hand off her.

"What do you want, huh?!" the accusation. His voice was heavy and horrible.

The glass of water in my hand came off and fell to the floor. Failed my plan to water it with water earlier. "Leave, Brother!" my moans. My hands were twisted to the point of causing quite excruciating pain.

"No way!" whispered Brother Faza with a growling voice.

The longer I get fed up. I stepped on his foot until he groaned in pain. His hand slipped from me and made me try to get away from him. But suddenly my hair was grabbed by her, until I returned to her arms. The woman beside Kak Faza was now running away. Suddenly Brother Rayi screamed calling out the name of Kak Faza. And made most of the people in this room stare at us confused. Some people whisper, and must be guessing what is going on.

Brother Rayi who was standing a little far away from me, looked at Kak Faza hatefully. He left his friends and walked straight to me. Kak Faza's chest was kicked strongly by Kak Rayi. Until I got away from him again. "Don't be your sissy! How dare women!" hardik Kak Rayi who has been ignited by emotions.

Brother Faza came forward and challenged Brother Rayi.  While I stayed away because it was pulled by Kak Bintang and Kak Roger. Kak Rayi and Kak Faza got into a fight and made a boisterous atmosphere. They were balanced and no one dared to break up. Both are already pretty bad.

I also did not dare to approach, especially Brother Star continued to hold me. Until finally there was one of the teacher council who approached and got angry.

"You don't deserve to do that! Make shame! The OSIS chairman candidate even fought at the election event?! You two are disqualified!" his screams pointed at Kak Faza and Kak Rayi. Both of them just remained silent, resigned.

Finally because of this incident the names of Kak Rayi and Kak Faza in the scrawl of the name of the OSIS chairman candidate. Now only 3 people remain as OSIS chairman candidates. The two of them were escorted into the teacher's room for questioning. Of course I took part in the interrogation this time. Because it all comes from me.

The three of us were already sitting lined up in the teacher's room. I was in the middle, flanked by two men whose faces were bleeding and bruised. Some of the teachers passing by just looked at us while shaking their heads. While waiting for the interrogation, I turned to Brother Rayi who was holding his jaw. I'm sure he's in pain. "It hurts, huh?" aska whispered. He smiled while shaking.

"Curtain, bucino!" sindir Kak Faza's.

"God! Mending bucin from you, PK!" cecar Rayi's. I held back his hand that was about to stand closer to Brother Faza again.

"Udah, Brother. Don't be gubris" I whispered.

"Just knock you, behind your chick's armpits!" That sentence made Kak Rayi's emotions unbearable anymore. This time I can't even hold my lover's body. "Sister, already! Let it!" my screams cover it from Brother Faza.

Finally some teachers came in and pulled Rayi out. Brother Faza laughed satisfied looking at that. And I'm getting sick of it. I glanced at him cynically, he didn't stop laughing.

"Funny?" my many. Staring at him flat and cold. He stopped laughing and looked at me. "Yes. You tau? No matter how hard you fight me, you won't win?" his challenge.

"What did you say? We're not gonna win you say?" askaku. I slowly approached him. Clutched the collar of his shirt, and he just laughed. It was as if what I was going to do would have no effect whatsoever on him. "Listen, yes, the devil. You can laugh now, but I'll make sure that in a moment, you'll rot in hell! Catch that!" my wrath.

We looked at each other with hate. But he didn't show any fear or anything. He just seemed happy to be challenged that way by me. I remember what Om Gio said yesterday. If the way to splash the water failed, there is still another way to prove that the creature in the body of Kak Faza is indeed a demon, as well as can hurt the creature. And I really want to prove it. I hid my hands behind my body, wearing an iron ring with an Enochian symbol engraved on my fingers. This tool is often used by Om Gio first, he said it can hurt enemies in the category of demons.

"You think you guys are that good? Even to distinguish me from this lowly human alone cannot!"

"Little man did you say?!" I said I couldn't accept that Brother Faza was insulted like that. I continued walking towards him slowly, while he laughed while retreating. "Wait on! What's that?!" he asked while watching both of my hands still hiding in the back. Well, I'm more convinced that he's a demon, the proof is that he knows what I'm hiding.

I tilted my head, now my right hand has been shown. He looked at that thing, and his reaction changed drastically. "Why? Scared?" my many.

"Currently, I've never been afraid of you, man!"

"Oh yeah? Let's prove it!" I said and immediately hit him in the face with this iron ring. The sound of bone cracking sounded loud. I'm sure his jaw is cracked. He screams in pain. And as I continued to attack him blindly, that was when Brother Roger and Kak Bintang appeared.

"Bill, Bil! Already!" prevent them. I was driven away by Brother Roger, while Kak Bintang brought Kak Faza and covered his head with a black cloth with some pentagram emblems that I had often seen before. "Gue dapet's. Yuk, bring! Bil, you get Rayi! The chunky!" said Kak Bintang.

Roger's brother pointed to the teacher's room next to us. "Bring Rayi! We'll wait in the car!"

____________

After going through many ways, I managed to take Brother Rayi away from the teacher's room. Under the pretext that Kak Faza escaped. And finally we were allowed to leave, with a warning letter for the three of us of course.

We both got to my house. In the middle room Om Gio was already waiting with careful preparation. We plan to expel the demon from the body of Brother Faza.

A circle has been prepared. With a chair in the middle. Brother Faza was placed in the chair. Not an ordinary chair, because it's a chair made by Om Gio. Whoever the devil or the devil is sitting there, then it's like they're tied firmly in the chair. Om Gio already had a lot of experience with creatures like this. The chair was made of iron by being carved with many demonic antidote symbols. Also, the iron base material used is also not arbitrary.

The head cover is still in place. Brother Faza growled with a heavy voice. The original figure in his body started to react and showed his true personality. After he's in the seat on that chair.

"Put off the head cover!" tell Om Gio. That old man still looks as handsome as when I first met him. Nothing changed from her, only her hair started to show gray hair everywhere. Even Om Gio's body still looks fresh.

Roger's brother took off the head covering. Now the face of Kak Faza is clearly visible. His skin looks blue and almost black in the place where the marks I hit earlier. Looks like the wound will be long. Like a charade and making it even more chaotic.

"What do you want?!" tanyanya looked at us all one by one.

"God! Where is Faza?!" ask Om Gio.

"Haha. I just don't know where he is. Obviously, he won't be able to come back here!"

"What do you mean?!"

"Well, his soul is up in that place. It even seems like his soul has disappeared. So you don't have to bother looking for him, because he's not around anymore."

I looked at Om Gio, waiting for his reaction. Because honestly, I don't know about this matter better than him.

"You lied!"

"I'm telling the truth!"

"I can't believe it!" Om Gio took a bottle of water. I thought it was the same water he gave me earlier, and it spilled because it was caught by this creature.

Kak Faza's face was doused by the water. And sure enough, he immediately screamed in pain. On his skin there was smoke billowing, his skin flushed red as if doused by boiling water. The water is cold. "Well you know where Faza is now!" om Gio said firmly.

"Dead," he blushed at us. Om Gio was upset and pressed his cheek to open his mouth. The water still in the bottle was immediately poured into his mouth. He screamed and his mouth was red. Even the part of the skin that was exposed to the water earlier will blister. "Hold," said Om Gio handed the bottle to Brother Roger who was standing to his left.

Roger nodded and looked at the water. He even poured some of that water into his palm. His forehead wrinkled because he did not feel the sensation like what Kak Faza felt. Even Brother Roger took a sip of the water and tasted it, as if looking for a taste of what was inside. "Adem feeling," he turned to Kak Bintang which implied curiosity on his face.

"Masa? I'm cobain," he said, seizing the bottle. And Brother Rayi just took a deep breath while shaking his head.

Om Gio continued to give torture which made Kak Faza continuously scream. Almost most of his body is now blistered. I can't even look at it. After an hour, Om Gio turned around and asked us for a discussion. The creature is weak. He just looked down with blood coming out on some part of his body, and his mouth.

"How, Om?"

"Hm, it seems like what he said was true. Faza's soul was already nowhere. He can't possibly come back. And even if the creature comes out of Faza's body, Faza will be declared dead," he said, staring at us one by one.

We're all quiet. It didn't feel like this was what we wanted, but it was to bring Kak Faza back to his body. "Can't we go find him first, Om?" ask Rayi.

"Of course."

Suddenly I felt the air around me cold. The wind was blowing from the outside that I didn't even know where it came from. Because all the doors and windows have been closed since, we have even locked them tightly. But apparently we have guests. Abitras.

I nudged Rayi's arm to look at the corner I was staring at. And he saw the same thing as me. "Abitra?" he murmured and heard everyone.

"Huh? What's?" ask the Star.

"That!" point Brother Rayi to the figure that just came.

Apparently they all saw Abitra. Evidently when Abitra approached us, everyone was amazed to see him. Even Brother Roger gawked and Brother Star elbowed him. "What he said is true. Your friends can't be saved anymore" said Abitra, walking back and forth in front of us. His tail moves like a pet cat Kak Bintang. But the Abitra is the biggest race. If it is likened to a cat of course.

"So where is Brother Faza now?"

"When you brought Faza home, his soul was still stuck there. And it is true, Bathara Kalla said, that every soul she has taken cannot be returned. And they're all in far away places. Unable to reach humans anymore. And can't go back." That explanation made everyone feel devastated. The heart feels like it is being hit by a big rock. It was heavy and painful in there. But that's how it happened. However, we were unable to save the soul of Faza.

"Wait on! Abitra, can't we meet him one last time?" asked Rayi with teary eyes. I approached while stroking her soft back.

Abitra looked at us alternately, then nodded slowly. "Alright, but only for a moment" he said.

Abitra turned to the stairs, a bright light appeared from above, and the sound of footsteps approaching made us impatient to see who was coming. But we're sure that he's Brother Faza. And, sure enough. The figure of the man who was descending from the stairs smiled shadyly at us. Well, he's Brother Faza. His face was bright, and he looked happy.

He was 5 meters away from us. Staring at us one by one, with a thin smile that continued to adorn his face. "Za, why can't you go back? Is there no other way, Za?" asked Rayi with a trembling voice. I really saw the pain in his eyes. The pain of losing one of his best friends.

Brother Faza smiled, lowered his head and looked back at his friends in turn. "You must betray me. I'm fine here. Maybe my time is up in the world, I hope you can move on with your lives. Be a good and useful person. Because there," point it up, "I still see you. Everything you guys do. So don't disappoint me."

Brother Rayi turned around, closed his mouth and that was when his tears were pouring down.

"Lu tega, Za. You just live with us. Really-really outrageous!" look Kak Bintang with the same emotion as Kak Rayi.

"sorry. I didn't mean to. I should have been dead a few months ago, but Nabila helped me. And now I can't dodge anymore. I hope you understand. I'm sure you can get through all this together, because you'll face a lot later. Hold hands, gaes. Don't leave each other!" advice calmly.

Brother Roger walked over to Brother Faza, he hugged him and they managed to hug. Star Brother followed him. Brother Faza also hugged the two of them tightly. "Yes? Don't you want to hug me one last time?" tanyakanya. And that sentence managed to tear down my tear defenses. It wasn't me she asked, but why it hurt my heart so much. Finally Rayi followed her friends. They hugged each other to say goodbye in their own way. I closed my mouth, and Om Gio now hugged me from the side.

"Beautiful friendship, yes, Bill. Om so remember the same friends Om first. Now it's just your father. It is hard to lose a friend who has always accompanied in joy and sorrow, even when fighting together."

'Om also lost Om's friends, right?"

"Well, even now the pain has not gone away. It's not easy. You guys should keep holding hands. Well, he said, don't leave each other, whatever the case is."

I turned my head, and looked at this old man beside me. His eyes radiated a deep sadness. And I know how hurt her heart is. Lost his friends first. I still remember all those memories. When Om Gio's best friend sacrificed his life for all of us. Since then, Om Gio has been quiet. Even I often see him daydreaming and crying alone while hugging the photo on the frame in his room. Om Gio has dedicated his life to his friends. He did not even intend to get married.

Brother Faza started waving, a sign he had to leave already. The three of them tried hard by repeatedly wiping away the tears that kept coming down from the eyes. Brother Faza walked back to the stairs earlier. And Abitra followed him, and finally they disappeared.

The figure inside Kak Faza's body had managed to come out, even Om Gio had burned it to dust. In an instant, Brother Faza's body began to rot. We took him to the hospital and no doctor could explain this. They said that Kak Faza's body had been dead for several months.

_____________________

I still put my hands around Rayi's waist. After his two best friends came home, now only Brother Rayi is still on the porch of my house. Meanwhile Om Gio had already entered into his room. Tonight Om Gio sleeps in my house. Papa will be back tomorrow morning, he said. And I have to be ready with Papa's scolding about the warning letter I just got from school.

Rayi's sister kissed my head many times. His posture which was much higher than mine made him freely control my head. Because I'm shorter than him.

"Are you okay, Ay?" I asked while looking up to see his face that looks tangled.

"Yeah, Iam okay, baby," she said, hugging me again, as if she didn't want to let go.

"You sleep here how? Why am I worried that you're going home, let alone alone," I said.

"No ah. Om Gio Nagged. I'll just go home. It's okay, right? Or maybe you miss, huh?" he asked while pressing my nose.

"That's not it, Ay. But ... Yes, I miss," I said, hugging her.

"Is tumbenan my dear spoiled gini. What would you like to ask?"

"ask what? Not yes. Just ... kangen. I love you even more" I said shyly.

"Gaziness!" Rayi's sister pinched my cheek. Our faces were close together, he even stared at my lips for a long time. Slowly approaching and I felt his breath on my face. Now our lips are stuck together. I don't know where to get inspiration from, I kiss her back. We kissed for a long time, and this was my first kiss.

Our breath began to get irregular, and I finally removed my lips from it "deadly, danger."

Rayi's sister laughed. And finally one last kiss on the forehead ends tonight. He then went home in his car. I stared at his passing with an endless smile.
