Screamnights
the owner of the Durawa cemetery part 1


            Today ... Sadewa did not stand guard at Durawa's funeral because there was something he had to do outside K village. Because it was for two days ... Alena lives alone in Sadewa's cottage in Durawa cemetery without Sadewa. Before you go ... Sadewa gave her some books and some other items that Alena could use when she was bored. But most of the books that Sadewa gave actually made Alena's head hurt when reading it.


            Romeo and Juliet. Winter in Tokyo, 3600 seconds. Alena threw the romance books on the bed and huft. Books with such a romantic smell were not Alena's taste. The story is too drama-smelling and predictable. If he wanted to give me a book, he asked me. It would be nice to read a mystery like Sherlock Holmes.


            Bored Alena then gets out of the cottage and goes for a walk on her own. The first ghosts he met were Kunti 1 and Kunti who were again making bets and this time the betting material was the return of Sadewa.


            “When durawapati will be back?” Kunti 1 talk to Kunti 2. “What if we bet for it, Kunti 2?”


            “No want!” Kunti 2 refused. “I will definitely lose again to you, Kunti 1.”


            Alena who heard the conversation of two spuntilanak Sadewa fans then approached them and joined in talking with them. “Let me help you, Kunti 2.”


            “You want to help me, man?” Kunti 2 looks towards Alena with sparkling eyes and vice versa ... Kunti 1 looked at Alena with flaming eyes as if he was looking at an enemy.


            “Ya.” Alena nodded her head. “Sadewa will definitely be back tomorrow. He told me he would only be gone for two days. So ... he will definitely keep his promise and come back to me.”


            “You sure, human?” Kunti 2 asked.


            “Ya.”


            “Alright then, I choose tomorrow.” Kunti 2 finally agreed to bet with Kunti 1 with a face full of confidence.


            “Ini tidak seru!!” Kunti 1 tiba-tiba memasang wajah kecewanya melihat Alena membantu Kunti 2. “Kenapa kau membantunya, manusia?”


            “I just want to. Kunti 2 always lose bet from you, I'd like to see Kunti 2 win from you.” Alena spoke with a small smile.


            “Sial you, man!!!” Kunti 1 was about to punch Alena in the face, but Kunti 2 quickly blocked the blow with his hand.


            “Do not hit it, Kunti 1!” Kunti 2 shouted while holding back the blow from Kunti 1. “You do not remember the message durawapati to keep this human?”


            “Ah .. I forgot.” Kunti 1 pulled his hand. “Why do you remind me, Kunti 2?? Yes ... I forgot, so I can hit him with the excuse of forgetting.”


            “You are!!” Kunti 2 pulls Alena's body behind her to protect Alena. “Starting today .. This man will be my friend. You can't hit him again, Kunti 1”


            Alena felt a little overwhelmed by the words from Kunti 2 that helped her. The ghost still has gratitude. Alena really did not expect just to help once, Kunti 2 immediately defended her in front of Kunti 1.


            “Ke-why suddenly you want to help this human, Kunti 2?” Kunti 1 asked with a face of annoyance at feeling betrayed.


            Kunti 2 pulls Alena's hand and takes Alena away from Kunti 1. Kunti 2 even pulled Alena's hand without answering any questions from Kunti 1 and made Kunti 1 really angry with Kunti 2.  Alena who saw this scene felt really moved and thought that ghosts still had sympathy for humans. But that feeling did not last long.


            “Because I have helped you, next time please praise me in front of durawapati.”


            Kunti 2 continues to take Alena to walk through small forests on the outskirts of Durawa cemetery while telling about the competition between kuntilanak and sundel bolong to fight for the right to tempt durawapati.


            “It has reached the final point. In a few days, Kunti 4 will clash with Sundel 3 to determine the winner.” Kunti 2 ends the story.


            “I did admit that Sadewa has a pretty handsome appearance. But ... Is Sadewa that handsome that you guys are fighting each other just to get his attention?"


            Kunti 2 stopped her footsteps and looked towards Alena with a small smile at the corner of her lips. Alena shuddered at the smile as it still looked horrible in Alena's eyes despite Alena having seen it repeatedly. “Young and handsome is a good thing. But the reason we scramble to get attention durawapati not because that's all.”


            “Lalu ... is there another reason?” Alena frowned.


            “Durawapati now is the only durawapati who never hurt us.” The answer from Kunti 2 made Alena remember how little tricks Sadewa told her when it came to living in a new environment along with these ghosts.


            “Durawapati previously besides they are old when receiving the task as durawapati and they are a stiff and uncooked person. Severe punishments are always waiting for us when we make mistakes. But that doesn't apply to the current one. He's much more human. For those of us who are not humans, we are now as if we think we are living humans. Durawapati which is now not rigid is also not kolot.” Kunti 2 continues the story again about Sadewa and thanks to Kunti 2, Alena knows more about Sadewa again.


            Kunti 2 then invites Alena to walk again and this time tells about Sadewa and some things that make it the center of attention of female ghosts at Durawa cemetery. “The sweat dripping from the forehead looks like a beautiful diamond sparkle. The rare smile shown by the durawapati was like a rainbow that rarely appeared in the sky after the rain - very rare and very beautiful. The gaze of the eyes of the durawapati when looking at us is like the deepest trough in the ocean that will swallow you anytime .... ”


            All the way ... Kunti 2 makes a picture of Sadewa and Alena can only smile a little because Alena does not think ghosts can also be romantic and make suppositions to express their feelings.


            “Ahhh it ... “ Kunti 2 stopped his footsteps because he saw tuyul 1, tuyul 2. tuyul 3 and tuyul 4 were playing on the fence of the forbidden area at Durawa cemetery.


            Alena peeked out from behind Kunti 2 and saw tuyul playing with an old man who was already long-bearded. The old man just sat down to play his stick but it made the tuyul who played with him feel very happy. Alena had never seen the old man and Sadewa himself had never told her anything about the old man's ghost. Even the tricks that Sadewa gave him never discussed the ghost of an old man who was accompanying tuyul play.


            “Who is that old man?” Alena asked Kunti 2 with a curious face.


            “The first owner of this tomb.”
