After Ningsih came, things returned to normal. Alea and Arya were given water incantations that were not what they read. However, the two disciples regained their composure, as if nothing had happened.


Bu Ningsih asked the teacher to continue the lesson, while he and his two servants intended to neutralize the place that had just been visited by a subtle creature. It was commonly done by him as the head of the dormitory. Expel evil spirits that interfere with the activities of the students in the dormitory.


He is not alone, Mr. Selamet also helped in the ritual. They went around the dormitory, down every place. Both in the female environment and in the male environment. The waiter behind him carried a pitcher that was reflecting smoke made of clay.


In certain places, Ms. Ningsih will put a small tray containing various kinds of objects. It is like a offerings, and the largest one is under an old banyan tree.


"Why do they place offerings in certain places?" Regi asked when he accidentally saw their activities.


"It is common, ahead of certain days the school will perform a cleansing ritual. Just like that Ningsih ma'am had done, in the hope that the disciples could study quietly without interruption," replied one of the male students sitting behind him.


Regi did not ask anymore, his gaze focused on the four figures who continued to go around putting small trays in various places. The bathroom, the big trees, even the big rocks. Everything did not escape from the session.


"Regi, what was your time in the cafeteria?" aela asked as she remembered Regi who had awered Arya in the canteen.


The teenager took a look from the window, glancing at Alea who was waiting for a response. In front of them Lina and Sofi chatted with Firda. Talking about Arya being possessed.


"Oh, that was, yeah. It's ruqyah's name. I learned ruqyah at home on school holidays," Regi replied many times his eyes were caught glancing at the window as if something had caught his eye.


Alea tilted her body to see what was the concern of her friend. The girl's forehead frowned as her gaze collided with the bead of a disciple in the distance. He stood under a tree growing near the male dormitory. His lips were smiling, but his eyes were empty and hollow.


"Regi, did you see that female student over there? You don't know him? He had been to my room yesterday" Alea asked as she pointed at the palanquin tree that was aborting its axe.


Regi glanced at the direction Alea pointed at, there was no one there. He only saw the shoots swaying in the wind.


"Where? There was no one there, only a tree," Regi said after confirming Alea's words.


"It"


Eh?


"Where is he? How, missing?" alea muttered for a moment her eyes were fixed on the palanquin tree, but the figure was gone.


"There was no one, really, from there. You're the wrong one to see" said Regi to confuse Alea.


The girl thought hard until her forehead skin piled up in the middle. Then, he shrugged his shoulders in agreement with Regi's words. Classes continue until the end, all students return to their respective dormitories to rest before resuming activities after lunch.


"What is this afternoon?" asked Alea while enjoying her lunch.


"That's it, exkul. Whatever you want to go with, there's a lot, really," Lina replied with her mouth full.


No one spoke anymore, everyone was silent including Alea. The girl suddenly gasped, her hands stopping to feed the rice into her mouth. Intermittent, his two lips split into a strange smile.


"Is there a dance class?" asked Alea in a slow and sluggish tone. It sounded almost like a whisper.


Crashing the nape of her three friends upon hearing Alea's voice asked. They paused the meal, glancing at the smiling girl herself with playful eyes.


"Yes, I love dancing. I've been dancing all night, hihi ...." Alea chuckled while covering her mouth with one side of her drooping hand.


His behavior is strange, looks flirtatious and spoiled. In their hearts they asked, is that really Alea's nature. Their eyes glanced at each other, Alea was increasingly acting strange. He wagged his shoulder-length hair as if he had long hair dangling.


"the le? You okay?"


Firda ventured to ask, he even held onto Alea's hand that felt ice-cold. Alea's flirtatious eyes spun towards him, nodding spoiledly while pulling his hand slowly.


"Spent, Le, eat it. Darling, the activities begin, "reproved Lina after spending her last mouthful.


Alea nodded slowly again, then her hand moved around in a wiggle as she fed the food to the mouth. They had not known the girl for long, but throughout the meal together, Alea had never acted as strangely as she was today.


Brugh!


Alea suddenly fell from the bench unconscious. The three friends panicked, quickly rushed up to the girl and helped her to sit down. Firda took the water, rubbing it against Alea's face. Intermittent, those beautiful eyes opened and stared at the bewildered three of his friends.


"Why am I downstairs?" asked Alea while trying to stand up.


"So you fainted, kept falling. You sick, Le?" cecar Lina repeatedly folded her lips in panic.


"Fainting? I don't know, but I feel good" Alea answered with Sofi sitting on the bench.


"I thought you were sick because you suddenly fell. Yes, now, finish it, gih, eat it," Firda said as he thrust Alea's plate in front of his face.


"Aragh!" Alea screamed as she put away the plate until it fell on the floor. His body quickly stood up, his face grimacing in horror.


"Why, Lea?" Firda's approaching.


The veins on Alea's face stiffened, sweat pouring down his shirt. Her chest was blooming with the hunting breath. Suddenly her beautiful face turned pale.


"I-it .. i-it, w-why is there maggots on my plate?!" pekik Alea pointed at the rice and side dishes scattered on the floor.


In his eyes, the rice looked like small, white beasts writhing and leaping. The rotting fish and vegetables gave off an unpleasant aroma to Alea's sense of smell. Suddenly he felt nauseous and vomited stomach contents without having time to run to the bathroom.


Alea's three friends stared really at the food, nothing strange. It was just rice and side dishes scattering on the floor. Alea ran to the bathroom, continuing the nausea reaction that hit the stomach. His face paled, and the sweat continued to flood.


He took a short breath to reduce the tightness due to the intense feeling that hit his stomach. Both hands rest on the sink, washing the face with water.


"Alea!" Someone called his name.


Alea looked up, facing herself in the mirror. Something was different, the figure inside the mirror grinned. Alea retreated a few steps, her chest rumbling violently. Fear began to fall on his heart. The figure brought the face closer, as if it was going to come out from within the mirror. Alea screamed as she continued to retreat until she tripped on her own leg and fell down.


"ARGHH!"
