Traveling to the Unseen Realm
70. Meet Erwin

Totok forced to keep his own curiosity because Krishna did not answer the question earlier. He refocused on driving the car while continuing to recite.

From his seat Ranvier can see how Totok is now. A sweat the size of a corn grain seemed to wet his face and neck, and it made Ranvier pity.

" The creature has gone, God willing, will not pursue us..," said Ranvier, patting Totok gently on the shoulder.

" Yes Mas. For a long time this time I squirm Granny turned into a rich demon like Mas. O Allah, if you may ask me no more. Kapok I...!" totok.

Ranvier laughed at Totok's words while Krisna seemed to smile silently.

" But Ranvier is great, he's not afraid at all. Though the distance of Mas Ranvier was the same as him earlier," said Totok.

" Thank God still protect me Bang. Mmm.., if I may ask not this story the same anyone who bang, let alone the same Grandpa. Kasian Grandpa if you know we met the game earlier, must be thinking again..," pinta Ranvier.

" Oh, siaapp Mas. I will not tell anyone about this incident. If you can be honest, actually do not need to be told also I have no intention to talk again Mas. I just said my tongue feels stiff. It's not good !. So rather than why, I'm better off. Yes Mas..," said Totok while looking at Ranvier.

" Yes Bang. Thank you, yes..," said Ranvier with a smile.

" The Same Mas. I also thank you because Mas has prevented the creature so as not to pursue us again earlier.", said Totok sincerely.

Then the car continued to split the night until they arrived at Grandpa Randu's house safely.

Everyone greeted Ranvier with enthusiasm. Ranvier is like the source of life in Randu's grandfather's house. Its presence makes the atmosphere in the house become more 'living', crowded and full of laughter. Since Ranvier went abroad the atmosphere of the house became a little dim. Luckily, his two best friends Akmal and Erwin diligently visited the house until the grandfather and other residents did not feel lonely.

" Has Grandpa slept Mbok...?" ranvier asked after breaking down the hug.

" Yes Mas. But Mr. Pesen, if Mas comes to be builtin..," said mbok Rah.

" No need Mbok, ge need. Let me wake up Grandpa later.." - Ranvier.

" That's why I went back to my room, Mas..," said Rah.

" Yes Mbok, thank you..," said Ranvier who was embraced mbok Rah.

Then Ranvier opened the door to Grandpa Randu's room slowly. He smiled to see his grandfather sleeping on the bed.

With a careful step Ranvier got closer to the bed. He stared at his grandfather's face for a moment. I don't know why staring at the grandfather's face made him so moved. His eyes are hot too. Worried about waking up the old man, Ranvier hurriedly rubbed his wet eyes with the back of his hand.

Then Ranvier slowly lay down next to his grandfather. He leaned his head against the grandfather's chest, gently hugging it while whispering.

" Grandfather's hug is the most comfortable place in the whole world I've ever had. I love Grandpa, sweet dreams huh Kek..," whispered Ranvier with a smile and then closed his eyes.

In his sleep Grandpa Randu seemed to smile. Apparently he was dreaming of chasing Ranvier who was still a toddler.

While running away from his grandfather, little Ranvier fell down and cried. Grandpa Randu laughed then carried her. Seeing the laughter of the little Ranvier's grandfather also laughed.

" Don't worry, there's a Grandpa who's gonna be there for you. As long as Grandpa is able, Grandpa will continue to support you in kindness. Forever...," inner grandfather Randu while.mecstatic at Ranvier then hugged him tightly.

In real life, Randu's grandfather did grab Ranvier and hugged him tightly until Ranvier thought the grandfather was awake. Ranvier looked at the smiling face of his grandfather.

" What dreams make Grandpa happy. May it be about Me." Ranvier's mind was hopeful and closed his eyes again.

In the morning Grandpa Randu was shocked. As he opened his eyes he saw that Ranvier had been sleeping beside him, just like when he was a child.

" Bad kid, it's this big still likes to stick in his Grandpa's ketek. If the girls out there know how much this macho guy they admire is still spoiled as Grandpa, they must be thinking again to chase you Vier..," murmured Grandpa Randu with a smile.

" Grandfather..," called Ranvier as he tightened his embrace.

" What time is Vier's house...?" ask grandpa Randu.

" Cake Night, I don't know what time it is.." said Ranvier.

" Why didn't you wake up Grandpa...?" ask grandpa Randu.

" I also sleepy Kek. If you wake up Grandpa who is there I even get a lecture at length. That's why Grandpa's not tired, I'm the one who sleeps next to Grandpa. Grandpa can save energy. Because Grandpa's snoring voice was enough to replace the long lecture that Grandpa wanted to sampein..," Ranvier joked while grinning but made Grandpa Randu widen his eyes.

" Baby ed*n...!" said Grandpa Randu while climbing Ranvier's head to make the grandson laugh amusedly.

When he heard Ranvier returned to Jakarta, Erein immediately slid to Randu's grandfather's house. Erwin was willing to take the time to meet his best friend when he should have entered work early.

" Ranvieeerr...! " call Erwin loudly from the doorway to make Ranvier who was having breakfast choke.

" Athaghfirullah aladzim.., greetings to Win's cake !. Shocked I...!" Ranvier.

But Erwin didn't care. He immediately hugged Ranvier tightly to make everyone laugh.

" Kangen Gue Vier." said Erwin as he unraveled his embrace.

" I also miss Lo Win..," said Ranvier with a smile.

" A minute, Vier. The food abroad is different from Indonesian food, Vier. How do I feel I'm getting higher gini anyway Win...?" erwin asked while observing Ranvier from head to toe.

Erwin's words inevitably made everyone laugh again.

" It could be Lo Win. It's not I'm getting higher but Lo who bantet..," said Ranvier on the sidelines.

" Substantial Lo. But it could be Vier. You see, in the factory I work rodi lifting goods. Once because of that I was so short, yes Vier..," said Erwin with a laugh.

" Don't say mulu Win. While breakfast is good,." Grandpa Randu reminded.

" I want it anyway, Kek, but ntar I'm late for work. If you can ask her raw aja Kek..," said Erwin while winking.

Grandpa Randu laughed and then took out two pieces of money hundreds of thousands of dollars from his wallet and handed it to Erwin.

" See a minute Win. Lo malak Grandpa Iue in front of the eyes of I Win...?!" ranvier said while glaring.

" Who's bad at Vier ?. This is Grandpa who gave me.." said Erwin did not want to lose.

" Can't. If only replace breakfast it is mostly. Back to me...!" ranvier said while chasing after Erwin.

Erwin ran out of the house laughing.

" I'm leaving, yeah, Kek. Ezra...!" pamit Erwin while patting the shoulder of the motorcycle ojeg who drove him.

When Ranvier arrived at the yard of the motor home Erwin was riding away. Ranvier could only stomp his feet in annoyance.

" Wa alaikumsalam.., " muttered Grandpa Randu while shaking his head at the absurd behavior of Ranvier and Erwin.
