The Body of My Son
"BANASPARASI"

WHERE'S MY SON'S BODY ?

The Part 11

Sulis immediately read the verse of the chair, the letter of Al-Ikhlas, An-Nas and Al-Falaq along with the thumping chest. And his reading grew louder as the fireball sped towards him quickly!

"Allahuacbar!" screech Sulis while closing his eyes and squatting next to Adinda's bed.

"Mother!"

Suddenly, Damar's voice appeared in front of Sulis. The damar that appeared without eyes stood up and spread out his hands as if blocking the banaspati to attack his mother.

The mouth of Damar formed the letter 0 and blew the wind out of his mouth so as to repel the banaspati.

The pigeon turned from before Damar and floated around Sulis' room. Sulis watched the banaspati tensely. He continued to read the verse of the chair and other short letters that he had memorized out of his head. Even Damar read it. Not long after, the banaspati flew out of Sulis' room.

Sulis let out a sigh of relief. The figure that resembled Damar in his presence turned around. The figure was still wearing a Scout uniform just like when he left the house yesterday.

"Broom, Honey!" hiss Sulis with a soft voice.

Damar grinned and fell silent 'looking' at his mother. In the condition of the face without eyes, it is almost unknown whether Damar is looking at him or not.

"Find my body, Mom!"

Only those words that came out of Damar's mouth made Sulis choked.

"Who harmed you, son? Tell mommy! And I'm gonna go look for your body."

Damar. Sulis momentarily hesitated to hug him or not. Between longing and fear mixed into one. Damar looked at Sulis a long time ago and then disappeared just like that.

"The room!"

Sulis screech and scatter hugging Damar who turned out to have disappeared and his final Sulis just hugged the wind.

Tears on Sulis' cheek. "O Allah, my husband has not long since died, have you taken my son in a mysterious way?!" hiss Sulis with a heart that felt slashed.

Sulis satisfied her cries then immediately closed the window of her own room. With a heavy heart, he dragged his steps into the bathroom to ablution.

"One, I love you. Two two too dear father. Three three adek dear ...."

Sulis choked when he faintly heard Damar's voice as he swung the dipper at his face. Sulis immediately stopped his ablution and listened carefully to Damar's singing voice earlier. But nil. The singing voice was no longer heard.

Sulis turned on the tap and swung the dipper for ablution and when the gurgling of water rang out, again Sulis faintly heard Damar singing again.

"Broom, Honey. If you nod your mother continuously, you can't pray tahajud, Le. Do you want to pray? I want to pray so that the affairs of the mother looking for your body are facilitated.

Or do you want you to show yourself the location of your body?" ask Sulis. His voice echoed in the bathroom. Sulis is like a mad man because he speaks for himself.

Once again Sulis turned off the faucet and put his dipper on the lip of the bathtub. The voice disappeared too. With trembling hands, Sulis again swung the dipper without turning on the water faucet and wudhu as soon as possible.

Sulis immediately walked back to his room. As she passed through the dark kitchen and the living room, she seemed to see the shadows of the objects in the room as if chasing her and was about to catch her.

Sulis then grabbed the mukena and wore it, then stretched the prayer rug and prepared to do takbirotul ihrom.

"Allahuakbar."

"Allahuakbar."

The deg!

Sulis' heart almost jumped when listening to the sound that followed his voice. It was as if there was a mum who followed his movements and prayers. And that voice is the voice of Damar.

Sulis with thumping chest read Al Fatihah's letter and short letter in heart. Sometimes he sighed when he felt that there was a shadow teacher who was praying to follow him.

Every time Sulis changed the prayer movement, every time he felt Damar following him from behind just like when his son was alive. Until Sulis reached the last rakaat of his prayer.

With a long sigh, Sulis arranged his heart to see the form of his son umpteenth time. Slowly Sulis prepared to say the greeting as the last movement of his prayer.

"Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wa barakatuh."

Slowly Sulis turned his head to the right and to the left. But apparently there was no one behind him.

Tears flowed again as she repeatedly mentioned Damar and her husband, Abdi. Then he rubbed his face as a sign to end his prayers and prayers.

Sulis slowly opened and folded his face back and hung his face on the nail behind the door near the dresser. Then Sulis slowly approached the bed where Dinda was asleep, and she began to close her eyes.

***

Adhan's voice woke him up. Slowly Sulis got up and massaged his head. Sulis felt his head ache when he woke up because he was staying up late.

With gontai steps, Sulis walked to the bathroom to perform dawn prayers.

After teaching him some of the Qur'an, Sulis closed his Qur'an and opened the window.

"Aarrgghhhh!"

Sulis gave a light screech as she saw Mbok Darmi standing before her with a face and body full of scabs. Then with his tongue sticking out like a dog, Mbok Darmi glared at Sulis.

Sulis rubbed his eyes and looked at the window again facing the house mbok Darmi, and it turns out that the shadow mbok Darmi has disappeared.

"Astaghfirullah, there's been a lot of strange happenings lately" Sulis murmured with a sharp heart, he grabbed a broom and started cleaning the floor from room to room.

While in Damar's room, Sulis stared at Damar's books arranged on the study table. Slowly, rubbed his book Damar then took a stack of books Damar and kissed slowly full of longing and hugged him long.

Pluks. A black-coated notebook fell out of his arms as Sulis was just about to return the book to its original place.

Sulis picked up the book and opened it. The contents inside made Sulis so shocked.

The book turned out to be Damar's diary and all this time he did not know that his eldest son turned out to have a diary.

Slowly open the book and read it.

* June 7, 2020.

"This means when the age of Damar is nine years aka third grade," murmured Sulis. Open the book again and read it.

[Today I saw that creepy creature again. There was a white clothes aunt with a shrill laugh on the front jackfruit tree of the house mbok Darmi. When I told my father, he told me not to tell my mother because he was worried that she was afraid. Finally I was silent to see Aunt in white with that shrill laugh and long hair.

I also pretended not to know when I saw a large tall shadow fanged up near the school bathroom. Father said, I am an indigo child who has a sixth sense. But I don't know what you meant at that time. You just say, if you also have a sixth sense that is kept secret from mother.

One afternoon, my father took me to an empty house to see my qorin. Apparently he also had a Qorin. Everyone has a genie like that, too. At first I was afraid of this ability. But the word father is an advantage and can be beneficial as long as it is used well. I didn't know what it meant at the time. I only believe in your words.]

Sulis. She did know that her husband Abdi had a sixth sense when Adinda was born. At that time something happened that made Abdi have to show his indigo ability to Sulis. And Sulis who felt uncomfortable asked Abdi to eliminate or close his ability.

On the same day as Abdi closed his inner eyes in the village next door that accident happened and killed Abdi. At that time Sulis really did not know that Damar also had a sixth sense like her husband.

Sulis read the sheet before the sheet.

* April 3, 2020

[Today my mother gave birth to a sister. My sister is so funny. Name's Adinda. But since giving birth, mothers often feel tired and do not love me.

What if I leave mom, mom's not sad? I just want you to come back like you loved me before you had a sister. Ah, I was so sad when my mom snapped at me because I couldn't do math PR fast.

And I could only look at the angry mother and then head towards the sister who was crying loudly. Fortunately, there was a new father coming from the vegetable sales tour. Ah, Mother. Forgive Damar who can't be a smart kid like any other kid.]

Sulis cried as she read Damar's note. Repeat from the front. The notebook consists of only a few sheets that have been filled with writing. Another sheet is empty. There is no record of the beginning of why Damar prefers to write in books, rather than telling Sulis the problem.

Sulis then turned the back sheet of Damar's book.

* July 13, 2020.

[Today I saw the father's qorin again in the village hall. Why does qorin often appear in the village hall? I'm rattled. I don't know who to tell. I wanted to tell my mother, but I remembered my father's message not to involve my mother in the occult. I want to hug you because I really miss you. I am also very sad because last month my father died of an accident after returning from the next village.]

Sulis crying terggugu. Heart's claustrophobic. Suddenly he heard the sound of a slashing scream from the house mbok Darmi.

"Aarghhh, help!!!"

Next up?
