The elevator doors then opened, Silla's ghost greeted their arrival with a smile.
"Hello.." said Silla.
"Tumben's really here?" anta asked while getting out of the elevator followed by the King.
"I have a story about your school," he said.
"My school?"
Anta pointed at herself.
"Yes, I heard earlier at the ghost school that One Soul High School is always looking for new collateral for the progress of the school."
"A ghost at Anta's school does anyone attend Aunt Silla's?" ask King.
"In fact they can't get out of that school" replied Silla.
"Why does Aunt Silla know?" ask Anta.
"One of my students is dating the same ghost there but they separate the school barrier wall" he said.
"Where are the ghost couples?" chirps King.
"My mother's name is Yuda, she goes to school and meets Kuntilanak Pinky, they say love at first sight, but Yuda can never take Pinky out, so his courtship at the school gate just aja deh," said Silla.
King and Anta looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
"Cock on a laugh anyway?"
"Yes end up funny Auntie, imagine two ghosts dating but kehalang fence, hahahaha.." said Anta.
"Yes, yes, uh but I was curious to go there, end, said Yuda, he could not go in there, continued the ghost inside also can not go outside."
"Hmmm... May it be, try tomorrow Aunt Silla come with me to school, how?" ask Anta.
"When it's day and day, don't want me to sleep, how is it tonight?"
"Okay, I'm coming!" sahut King.
"Heh, can't! Mama Dewi will definitely forbid you to come, if you can say that you are 17 years old. After all, tomorrow Brother Anta is 17 years old wleeek!"
Anta stuck his tongue out at the King.
"Let me be with Mama, Wleek!"
"Ja, you know that Sister Anta is angry" Anta said threateningly and punched her own fist.
"Okay, okay, I'm not going to tell Mama."
The king finally gave up on the threat of his brother.
"When we take Arya, what?" ask Silla.
"Arya is busy dating, I will take Arga aja," replied Anta look upset.
"Cie... Sister Anta's jealous, huh?"
The king meredek his brother.
"What a jealous child, what a child knows, huh!"
Anta stepped into his house leaving the King outside.
"Huuu...!"
The king also entered the house opposite him.

Silla settles down in Anta's room. The ghost looked at Anta who was still contemplating after changing clothes.
"Why are you, Nta?" ask Silla.
"Then anyway? Black clouds shrouding? Kok, I became aware of the incident when I was a child first, yes," said Silla.
"What happened, Auntie?" ask Anta full of curiosity.
Silla remembers her past and tells the girl about herself. When he was a child, he and his mother lived in Wangi Village. His mother, Lila, worked as a domestic assistant in a large house owned by Mrs Karina. Her mother was very kind-hearted and had a warm smile with dimples just like Silla.
Silla's mother worked for a widow who owned the largest tea plantation in the village, making her employer one of the most respected people in the village. Her mother's employer was very kind-hearted, but she had seen the black shadow that enveloped Madam Karina.
Silla told her mother she was braiding her black hair before leaving for school. His mother couldn't believe that she didn't even heed her son's words. He instead praised and admired the face of his son in the mirror in front of him with affection and he said, “Mama will always take care of you, even though Mama sacrificed her life.”
One day her mother looks terrified and brings Silla to move in. He then lived in an orphanage located in the opposite village called Kampung Asri. Her mother worked as a maid in the orphanage.
No one suspected why her mother had invited her to move all of a sudden. The woman also never answered her questions about it. He ended up going through the rest of his primary school education for two years in the village. He won the title of general champion at the school. His best grades led him to transfer to SMP '01, the village's favorite school.
Silla herself is the most beautiful girl in her class. The yellow skin looks shiny adds to its ayu look. Many students liked it because that dimpled smile looked adorable. But the girl never hugged him.
Silla also recounted seeing a pile of old newspapers in the school library. In the top newspaper headline it says “Mysterious Outbreak in Wangi” Village. The girl scanned the article carefully.
The girl scanned every word printed on the old newspaper. All residents of Wangi Village were reported to be affected by a disease outbreak that left them dead. Printed photos of some residents whose skin is full of hollow wounds as if scratched until the skin peels.
Silla told me about the story in the newspaper. Again his mother did not answer until one day he saw a black cloud that clustered over the sky of his village at that time. The black cloud was seen issuing a plume of smoke that slowly descended and approached the residents.
The children of the home were also seen scattering out and shouting at each other. His mother immediately pulled Silla into a tub car that was parked in front of the yard. The woman could drive and carry the car at high speed.
Silla saw a farmer covered in black smoke that was seen scratching his body until it peeled off. Even the meat in the stomach is scratched using a rice cutter until the stomach is torn with a small intestine that shoots and breaks down.
Two people behind him had the same fate. They are seen losing consciousness until they injure themselves by scratching their cheeks using a knife. There are even those who pry the eyeballs themselves due to the itching that is not restrained. They look like the undead who eventually fell and died instantly also bleed out.
The black cloud also reached and touched the driver who was driving the truck in front of him. The driver pulled the car over. He got out of the truck and immediately scratched his entire body and shouted in pain.
"What happened, Mom?" ask Silla.
"It's all because of Nyi Ageng" he replied.
"Miss Ageng?" ask Silla.
"It's important we get out of here!"
Unfortunately, they had an accident while heading to the city. However, when Silla wakes up in the hospital. Her mother said that Silla was hallucinating or dreaming.
***
"Any yes, but it could be a Aunt also a dream," said Anta.
"But I don't dream, Nta, I'm sure you know. I think I should see Mey, what is the same cloud as in my village first," said Silla.
"Tante dream of kali, the serem time is very horrifying," said Anta.
"Well I'm confused, you called Arga?"
"Oh yes, but Anta wants to eat first yes," said Anta.
"Yes, I slept here first" said Silla.
"Tante, have you washed the dishes?" ask Anta.
"Anta, I'm a ghost, you know, not a maid!" exciting Silla.
"Why do you think ghosts?"
There was no rebuttal from Silla other than to comply with the girl's request.
