"Now try to tell your mother, what really happened so that you came home as late as before.?" ask mother.

Dinner is over. Now Mother and Rian are in the family room. Rian sat in front of Mommy with a table as the limiter.

"Emm. yes Mother. Rian will tell. But do you want to believe Rian's story.?" rian answered with a question.

Mother frowned confusedly. Then she tried to neutralize herself. Mother smiled and nodded.

"Tell me. Whatever the story, Mother will try to accept it if it makes sense" said Mother.

"That's right. Mother said that. Mommy will not believe it. Because this story according to logic does not make sense. But this is what Rian is going through." said Rian.

"okay.okey... Mother will believe whatever your story is. The important thing is you tell first what is really without anything you cover or you letangin" said mother.

"Yes mother. Rian never told the real story to mom. Kan emang during this time also Rian any story to mother. If not to mother, Rian want to tell who else." Rian's face became sad after saying this.

Mother understood what her son was feeling now. Mother moved closer to Rian and sat down next to him. Mother hugged Rian and stroked his back so as not to dissolve in sadness.

Mother knows that her son has been trying to stay strong outside. But Mommy understands that this child is not that strong. After the departure of her father a few years ago, Mother often caught Rian secretly crying in her room while hugging her figura.

Rian regained his senses and immediately took off the embrace of the mother. He looked at the mother and slightly shifted his seat so that there was a distance between himself and the mother.

"Mother why?" rian asked when he realized that she had cried.

Immediately the mother wiped the remaining tears from her cheeks then smiled and shook her head.

"Mother is okay. Now you tell me what you should be telling me." replied the mother.

"But mother. Mother is not really pa-pa. But why are you crying.?" ask Rian again.

Mother just shook her head. Then rubbed Rian's arm to convince her son that he was really okay. Rian held the hand of the mother who rubbed her arm and then grasped it. Rian looked into my mother's eyes. He felt something was hidden by his mother. But he does not want to bother about it, he will find out slowly.

"Okey. If you're not pa-pa, Rian will tell me now." Rian relented and immediately told her the truth.

Starting from after school he drove Wati to his house due to fainting, and chat long enough there and had met with Wati's parents as well. Continues at the time he walks home and feels followed since the intersection after exiting the residential alley Wati. Until he met with 4 teenage figures who asked for his help.

"You mean, the 4 teenage figures asked for help from you because only you can see them clearly and consciously.?" mother asked in astonishment and a little worried about her son.

"He mother. So they initially followed Rian with his human figure. At first, Rian thought they were human, just like Rian. But it turns out that their form turns into their true form after there are citizens who are Rian for a long time in the area. Rian thinks they've been following Rian since the intersection. But it didn't. They are other figures who have been following Rian since entering the area. Then they asked Rian to help them." explained Rian.

"What did they ask for help.?" ask mother.

"They asked Rian to help them..."

gubrakkk...

Rian and Mommy are shortened because they suddenly hear a loud bang like a falling object. At once Mother and Rian turned to look towards Rian's room, because his voice seemed to come from there. Then they look at each other and have difficulty swallowing each other's saliva.

Slowly they approached Rian's room. After being in front of the room, they stopped and looked at each other. Mother gave the code so that Rian immediately opened the door. At first Rian refused because he was also scared. Eventually, he gave up and tried to open the door. With a slightly tense body and trembling hands, Rian slowly held onto the door knob and then turned it around.

Dann....

Wati helps Grandma and Rania who have arranged dinner at the dinner table. It felt quiet, because Wati looked moody. Usually Wati will be a lot of comments about the layout of vegetables and side dishes arranged at the table. But this time no, Wati was more silent like he was thinking something, butiii. Grandma and Rania were staring at Wati. Then Rania tried to melt the atmosphere by asking Wati.

"Eh brother.kak... Brother knows not. Ntar Malem, sister's favorite k-movie airs at 23:30. Brother want to watch.? If you want to watch, invite Rania yes. Rania also wanted to watch. I want to see Ji Chang Wook. Yes sister.yaa." said Rania.

No response from Wati. He daydreamed and did not listen to Rania's words just now. Rania just shook her head. He was surprised by his brother who was now even daydreaming. Then Rania intends to prank her brother. He pulled the corner of his lips while flicking his finger. Then he left his sister and grandmother in the dining room.

What will Rania do. But not so long, then he returned with his sister's phone. Then he tried to pretend to call someone.

"Hello brother... This is Rania Wati's sister. Brother can not come here. Please, Mr. Wati. He looks weird tau sis. Rian's brother can come here now."

Wati looked up at Rania. He was a little surprised after Rania mentioned Rian's name. Ja..Rania said so because she already knew that Rian had often helped her brother while being disturbed by creatures. Moreover, this afternoon he had seen his brother who chatted casually (in his opinion) and was able to laugh freely with others after his brother had experienced disappointment in love during Junior High.

That way, Rania thinks that Rian is the person who can turn her brother into a cheerful person like before. No longer as quiet and closed as it is today. Therefore Rania uses the name Rian to lure her brother to talk at this time. And it worked.

Wati who heard the name of the person he was thinking of immediately looked up at Rania. Yes, Wati was thinking about Rian. Then he moved closer and was about to snatch his phone from Rania's hand. But Rania dodged.

"Sir. Bring your sister's phone. And why are you talking like that to Rian.?" said Wati.

"Who's talking to Rian's brother.?" elak Rania's.

"Lantas, who did you just talk to.?" ask Wati again.

"I'm not talking to anyone" Rania replied by showing her cell phone that was still locked and not on call.

Wati clucked in annoyance. He tried to get the phone. A few moments later he won. He got the phone. Then he checked his phone and also his call records. There is no record of the call that just happened. He heaved a sigh of relief and immediately went to his room.

After that...
