Screamnights
unfulfilled desire: pocong 2 part 4

            “Kyaaa!!” A group of female ghosts scream to see Sadewa in a white suit like a dream girlfriend.

            “I first!!” Sundel 1 advanced and stood beside Sadewa.

            “I first!” Sundel 2 did not want to lose to Sundel 1 and stood on the other side of the empty Sadewa.

            “I duluaaan!!” Kunti 3 did not want to lose and pulled Sundel 1 away from Sadewa, trying to seize the position of Sundel 1.

            “I duluaann!!!!” Kunti 4 who also did not want to lose did the same with Kunti 3 by pulling Sundel 2 and seizing his position.

            Alena saw Sadewa who looked uncomfortable with the commotion of female ghosts who were scrambling for positions to take pictures with Sadewa. Yes ... the price for information about Pocong 2 is all the female ghosts who came at that time and heard the request from Alena was to take a picture together with Sadewa. And not the usual shared photos, Sadewa also had to dress up handsome like a boyfriend. The female ghosts were envious of the request from Kunti 2 who wanted to date Sadewa before finally going to the afterlife.

            “I first!! Don't you know what that means??” Sundel 1 countered Kunti 3 by pulling him away from Sadewa.

            “I duluaan!! Don't you know the culture in line??” Sundel 2 hit back at Kunti 4 by doing the same with Sundel 1.

            “What if I go first??” Suddenly from the sky appeared the ghost of an old woman with some tuyul in her sling. “You scramble like that, let me go first. How??”?

            “Alena!” Sadewa called out to Alena in an annoyed voice.

            “Ya?”

            “Cannot!!!” Sundel 1, Sundel 2, Kunti 3, Kunti 4 even Sundel 3 and Sundel 4 are not scrambling, he said, join in talking simultaneously because they do not accept the presence of a ghost wewe sombel by carrying two tuyul in his sling.

            “Alena!!” Sadewa yelled louder at Alena and this time prepared to swing the baseball bat he used as a weapon.

            “A-I understand.” Alena nodded her head and advanced near Sadewa. Alena even made a fence with her body to protect Sadewa from the ghosts of women who are fighting over her. “Because you guys are fighting each other, how about this? We vote for who first and after that, I can take your picture. How?”

            Alena had hesitated in that way because she saw how brutal the female ghosts were when fighting over Sadewa. But in fact a group of female ghosts just agree with Alena's way and it saves Alena from the many pressures that are currently attacking her together.

            “Okay, cheese.” Clik. Alena took the first photo of Kunti 3 along with Sadewa.

            “This is for you, durawapati. This is a sign of my love for you and a sign that my heart is always yours.” After finishing taking the photo together, Kunti 3 suddenly pulled out his black heart and no longer beat, and gave it to Sadewa.

            Of course Sadewa refused the gift because Sadewa could not accept the feeling of ghosts living in a different world to humans.

            “Okay, cheese.” After Kunti 3, it is now Sundel 1's turn to take pictures with Sadewa. Sundel 1 who did not want to lose with Kunti 3, also gave something to Sadewa. But it is not the heart that Sundel 1 gives, but rather the heart mark made with the thumb and index finger that it learns from the human world.

            After Sundel 1, Sundel 2, Kunti 4, Sundel 4 and Sundel 3 turn forward one by one to take their picture with Sadewa. They posed as if they were Sadewa's real lovers. Well in just a few seconds, they were Sadewa's lovers and the photo was proof of that.

            “Jadi ... what is the desire of Pocong 2?” Alena asked Sundel 1 and Kunti 3 when the photo session ended.

            “Ma-ta-ha-ri?” Alena repeated the word with a surprised expression because she did not expect the desire of Pocong 2 was a pretty strange desire according to Alena. “Why sun? Why does Pocong 2 want to see the sun??”

            “Maybe you don't know this story, but Pocong 2 was once a climber. If I don't remember correctly Pocong 2 died while climbing the mountain behind this cemetery. At that time ... it happened quite horrendous both in the human world and in the ghost world. Because the climber was missing for a week before finally found dead.” Sundel 1 explained what he remembered to Alena.

            “Ya .. I also heard that story from Kunti 1. The incident really horrendous funeral Durawa because durawapati at that time brought some ghosts in the cemetery Durawa out of this cemetery to find the missing climber. Hearings that mislead Pocong 2 before losing his life is genderuwo behind the funeral.” Kunti 3 added.

            “Wahh .. then Pocong2 does not like genderuwo and his group?” Alena asked.

            “Clearly!! As soon as it appears to be a ghost in this cemetery, Pocong 2 goes straight into the genderuwo nest to claim revenge.” Sundel 1 spoke with excitement.

            “But why are you stuck in this cemetery? I thought the climbers should be from out of town?” Alena asked again.

            “Pocong 2 it is a resident in village K. That's all I hear. Among all of us - the ghosts here, only the tomb of Pocong 2 is always visited by his family.”

            After trying hard enough: from chasing after Pocong 2, buying information from the ghost gossip community to kneeling in front of Sadewa to help him, Alena finally finds a wish from Pocong 2. And now ... Alena is thinking about how to ask Sadewa to make the sun so that it can be seen by Pocong 2 because the task is not an easy task to remember in Durawa cemetery there is only night without day because of the barrier that protects durawa Cemetery and the ghosts in it.

            “Jadi ... do you already know what the wishes of Pocong 2 with the sacrifice I made?” Sadewa asked Alena by taking off the white coat she was wearing.

            Alena nodded her head looking at Sadewa. Alena sat beside Sadewa inside the cottage where Alena was staying for a while. “Already.”

            “What's the desire of Pocong 2?” Sadewa.

            “It looks like the desire this time is really quite difficult, Sadewa.” Alena gave an answer by lowering her head and even ruffling her hair.

            “Difficult??” One of Sadewa's eyebrows rose when she heard a difficult word come out from inside Alena's mouth answering a question from her. “What is more difficult than being a date with female ghosts, taking pictures with female ghosts, getting into genderuwo's nest and rummaging through its contents, and calling many soul binding chains to catch the genderuwo while summoning barriers to block those who are so angry with us?”

            “Why does hearing your words make me feel like I've burdened you with so much, Sadewa?”

            “Good if you are aware. If you go back to the human world, you'll have to pay me for all my efforts.” Sadewa gave Alena a small warning. “What is the request of Pocong 2 more difficult than all that I and you have done?”

            Alena nodded her head. “Yes, harder than anything you and I have done. And this time ... once again, you have to accept the difficulty so that I can do the task to meet my mother, Sadewa.”

            Huft. Sadewa let out a long breath. “What's harder than all that, Alena?”

            Alena looked towards Sadewa with a deep gaze. “Pocong 2 want to see the sun, Sadewa.”

            Glupes. Sadewa gulped his saliva while cursing in his mind. Shit man!!! Is this really the job for Alena? Why do I feel that Alena's duties are not her duties but those of me who came through Alena?? Though I only durawapati surrogate, but there are so many tasks I have to do!! Damnit damnit!! Saving this woman is no easy task!!
