The House 1937's
74. The Vision of Chun In

"Once Koh.", looks a little relief seen on papa's face. Papa to ask this back to Chun In, because, of course, as a human Papa is afraid if the terrible thing repeated he experienced. He was also sure that this man next to him, must have understood his current state.

Chun In only gave a short nod then he directed his gaze to the side of the house. From where it stands today, everything is clearly visible, only the kitchen side door is not visible. Yesterday evening, after the funeral procession from Sukarsih had been carried out. He still felt a little exhausted, probably due to the "vision" he saw in the old barn. He had to admit, his vision at that time was quite clear and drained his energy.

But it turns out that not only there, he who already feels better than before, finally tried to dare to "see" further about the condition of this house. When he first set foot in this house, he felt that this house was indeed "inhabitant" and some of the existing ones were indeed quite disturbing. If you think about it again, it is sad for him because Papa with his family must get used to the state of the house like this.

After praying to begin the "his vision" session again, gradually it began to become clear. What he told papa when he saw the photos of this part of the house when papa came to his house at that time began to look more clearly. The assumption is true, the previous landowner before the Papa family occupies this house is indeed problematic, in the sense that the previous owner has indeed done a supernatural agreement that seems intended to get wealth instantly. He saw in this land, as long as the owner lived here, it took a lot of casualties during the supernatural covenant. And it is true, after the unseen covenant, the previous owner of the land of his wealth increased. Chun In could only sigh, at the sight he had witnessed that night. Actually without doing this he was already quite prosperous as a landlord and middleman rice. The greed that pervaded him had closed his eyes to do the damned thing.

As time went on, his unwitting self was missed to give a tumble, in exchange for all the prosperity he had, he said, eventually he fell ill for a long time to the extent that many possessions that his family had to spend for his recovery. One of his sons who did know he had the supernatural agreement, finally offered the land still occupied by his family to a Chinese landowner of rice fields and breeder of Pigs, none other than my own grandfather. With his mind he licked his tongue to make grandfather believe and want to buy this land and house to him, without caring that this house and land where his father did that is very much done by God. The most important thing now is that he can get the money from the sale of this land.

My grandfather who finally believed his words finally agreed to buy this land and all the buildings that stood on it. My grandfather at that time was tempted by the price of the land offered was quite cheap or below the average price of land at that time. And well ..the thing that was indeed unexpected by him is.now his son and grandson must feel afraid every day because they live in this house.

"Koh..., koh Chun In.", Papa slightly shook Chun In who seemed focused on looking at the house.

"I.iya Koh?", Chun In responded to papa who shook his shoulder with a clumsy tone, he unconsciously called out to him.

Papa looked at the man's face for a moment, seeing that Chun In still did not look good with a slightly haggard face. Papa who wanted to open the conversation again, but one of the builders who worked called papa to ask something.Papa who stepped over to the builder, the builder, while Chun In himself finally decided to go back into the house through the kitchen side door.

This dinner session is much better than last night which feels very stiff and quiet. At dinner last night, Grandma was still leaning on the matter yesterday and the condition of Chun In himself, the son of Babah Hwan said that he was better, he was better, and for the construction of a new warehouse can be continued. Chun In also told Grandma and everyone at the dinner table that she should return home tomorrow. Grandma and Papa nodded in understanding, Papa had offered to drive the man in his truck, but Chun In refused subtly that he could go home alone.

"Now it's not as lonely as it used to be, well. Now for more public transportation access and the area is getting crowded", Chun In explained in a calm tone, although to get to his house still have to be on foot, at least public vehicles such as buses or city transportation have passed many roads in the Klenteng area.

"If you have anything later, you just call me here.", the words of the grandmother in reply with Papa and Aunt Alin who looked at each other and then nodded slowly. They also agreed to help Babah Hwan's son if he ever needed help.

"Yes Well, Ko Jun, thank you...",

The dinner session had ended, and as usual they all gathered in the living room to relax watching the television show. For some reason, Papa who usually enjoyed the television show that was watched together, now he looks not interested and instantly papa moved from his seat next to Aunt Alin.

"Where are you going?", Aunt Alin noticed papa's steps that turned out to go to the door of the living room.

"You look at Lin's front door, it doesn't seem like it's in the lock yet" Papa continued to step up and now he's in the living room where the lights have been turned off, only a bright red light can be seen that comes from the altar lights on the right and left side of the prayer table.

Before checking the door lock of the house, Papa pulled out the curtain cloth that was next to the door to see the scenery outside the house, it was papa's habit before locking the front door. There are suspicious people wandering around the house. Once papa saw the outside of the house, from the window, he was surprised to see someone standing on the small road to the front porch of the house. Papa who was still shocked was also confused, because the person looked gurgling and like he was dancing there. She had a scarf around her neck and she kept dancing without music. Instantly papa reflex opened the front door of the house, and it turned out that the figure was still there, hiding in the dark dim light. Papa who was still stunned to see that figure who finally stopped dancing then just disappeared. The figure suddenly disappeared without the slightest explanation.

A pat on Papa's shoulder, which makes Papa immediately reflex turn his head which turns out it is Chun In behind him. Since when did this man stand behind her?. The man looked towards the front of the house, then looked at Papa calmly.

"Sukarsih thanked Koh, Engkoh already wanted to bury him properly....",
