The Treaty of Invisibility
The Friday Night Tragedy 3

Like Kosim alone, Abah Dul deliberately toyed with Mang Ali. He did not want to directly hit him even though his hands were already impatient to beat him up.

The fake Mang Ali kept asking for Kosim's whereabouts, "Where is Kosim...?" his voice sounded flat.

"Ah, Mang Ali kayak does not usually use the name Kosim. Usually go straight in, what do you want?" Abah Dul said deliberately toying with him.

"You want me to play with a friend" Mang Ali replied flatly.

"Here enter first Mang Ali," said Abah Dul while waving his hands.

But the fake Mang Ali was like reluctant to enter the house, he chose to stand alone in the yard.

"The first page Mang Ali, since we came we forgot to shake hands." Abah Dul kept sulking for Mang Ali to come closer.

It seems that the fake Mang Ali did not realize that his disguise had been known from the beginning. For a moment he hesitated and was confused by Abah Dul's invitation. Because he did not want his disguise to be uncovered, Mang Ali also extended his hand to shake hands with Abah Dul.

Abah Dul greeted him with a big smile, "Naaah, so Mang Ali as a friend anyway." Abah Dul.

Abah Dul immediately tightly gripped Mang Ali's palm. The great tremor felt by Abah Dul as the two palms shook. The next second the heat crept in up to Abah Dul's arm.

Abah Dul gasped, not wanting to risk quickly Abah Dul jerked his hand without removing his hand. The practice of 'Destroying Sukma' that he had prepared was struck through the palms of hands that shook each other tightly.

A few moments later, Mang Ali's hand shook violently and his body was shaken violently. Only a split second Mang Ali continued to hold on but the next second his body let out smoke.

Abah Dul continued to grip Mang Ali's hand tighter, while the smoke on Mang ali's body thickened until a loud scream was heard.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaakh....!!!"

Together with the scream, Mang Ali's body was destroyed like burning. Only leaving thick smoke for a moment then soared up and disappeared.

Kosim who had been hiding while watching Abah Dul fight with fake Mang Ali came out immediately after Mang Ali was destroyed.

"Ouch! Cosim is just surprised!" Abah Dul cried seeing the appearance of Kosim from the side.

Abah Dul did not know that Kosim had been hiding in the air at the side and saw it like an opera.

"That means you are Sim who was jorokin Mang Ali? Wow, well, kuwalat you," said Abah Dul while chuckling.

Kosim and Abah Dul were both chuckling given the behavior of each of them who had deceived the monkey demon who also tried to deceive the two.

Amidst the laughter of Abah Dul and Kosim, came Mang Ali. The appearance is exactly the same as the fake Mang Ali, wearing a tee shirt with a cigarette advertisement and wearing a sarong.

When Mang Ali was about to say hello, the hunt was interrupted by Kosim's call, "Stop Mang Ali! Stay standing there" exclaimed Kosim as he thrust his palm like a parking attendant.

Kontan alone Mang Ali stopped his steps with a puzzled face. Kosim then walked three steps to the right of the terrace where he stood.

Mang Ali believed Kosim's call to be with Abah Dul. He thinks Kosim has something threatening him.

But Kosim instead of paying attention to Mang Ali's stocky body but pay attention to Mang Ali's back. Kosim wants to make sure that behind Mang Ali there is a shadow or not. Because what he saw on the fake Mang Ali there was no shadow despite being highlighted by the porch lights.

"What the hell is it, Sim?!" Mang Ali asked astonished at Kosim's behavior.

While Abah Dul just a smile just see it. A moment later, Kosim sat back on his back against the wall under the window.

"Come in, enter Mang Ali, hehehehe." said Kosim with an expression without feeling sinful.

"Why Bah?" Mang Ali turned his question to Abah Dul.

"You know Kosim, ask Kosim Mang," replied Abah Dul, laughing to see Mang Ali was confused.

"Waalaikum greetings Mang Ali," Kosim quipped with a laugh.

"Assalamualaikum, until you forget your greetings, hehehe.." Mang Ali replied.

"Do you want to tell me first or do I drink first?" Ask Kosim.

"The story first, curious. What the hell is it?!" Sergei Mang Ali.

"So Gini Mang Ali, when Mang Ali came fitting us again on a laugh. Well, it was just that someone came, the person was exactly the same as Mang Ali. Wear it is the same as Mang Ali is using this," explained Kosim.

"Yes Mang Ali. It was only a few minutes before Mang Ali arrived." Abah Dul replied.

"If Mang Ali is fake, I see no shadow of his body. If there was a Mang Ali," explained Kosim again.

"Where to now? Impertinent really, it could be slander," Mang Ali.

"Where is Alinya Bah?" Kosim asked him deliberately so that Abah Dul told him the story.

"Alhamdulillah, Mang Ali has been destroyed." Answer Abah Dul.

"By the way Mahmud went, just the two of you, by the way" said Mang Ali.

"Mang Ali is late. Usually it's sitting here" said Kosim.

"Well, that's one of the greatness of the class of subtle creatures, Sim" said Mang Ali.

"What's so good about Mang Ali?" Kosim.

"It was finished praying Isya did want to come directly here. Ehhhhh, it is not unusual - usually Minah (his wife) asked to buy a martabak. Which one sells only in the T-junction again," said Mang Ali.

"Yes, too, Mang Ali" said Kosim, as he was bearded.

"Eh, Sim so don't make coffee?" Seloroh Mang Ali's.

Kontan Abah Dul and Kosim laughed. Kosim immediately moved from his seat stepping through the left side door.

After Kosim's death, Abah Dul invited Mang Ali in while telling him about Mahmud's condition.

In the guest chair, Mahmud appears to be asleep, his head propped up at the corner of the chair's backrest, his hands drooping over his stomach.

"Let's just let Mang Ali. Maybe Mahmud is still limp" said Abah Dul.

"Pity Mahmud" Mang Ali replied.

"But already treated Kosim Mang Ali," said Abah Dul.

"Yourself, it looks like Kosim is getting better here Bah. Much progress after experiencing suspended animation." said Mang Ali.

"Yes Mang Ali, I feel lucky too, Kosim is now reliable, Mang Ali," said Abah Dul.

"Yet just now, can know if it's a fake Mang Ali thanks to Kosim. If Koaim did not tell, I don't know how the story is. Maybe it's Mang Ali's help," continued Abah Dul.

Then Kosim nongol with coffee for Mang Ali.

"Is the coffee still there?" suddenly Abah asked after Kosim put his coffee glass Mang Ali.

"There's still a lot of Bah" replied Kosim.

Mang Ali chuckled at Kosim's expression and answer, "Hikhikhik..it's a code asked to be contrived again, Sim.." seloroh Mang Ali.

The three then laughed to make Mahmud wake up from his sleep.

"Ouch, overslept. Is there a Mang Ali?" Mahmud said as he corrected his seat.

"Yes Mud, just arrived. That's why Minah suddenly wanted martabak, where far more to buy it." said Mang Ali.

"Udah Mud, continue to sleep there in the room. Rest so that his condition quickly recovered," continued Mang Ali.

"Yes Mud, take a break. You look weak." - timpal Abah Dul.

"Yes, punten." Mahmud answered, went to his room.

Not feeling the clock face of the wall shows the number 10 nights. In the house of Mahmud now only live three, Abah Dul, Mang Ali and Kosim who melan all night Friday.
