45. Go!!!


"See also Mr. Karim!!!"


Point Tuo's pour towards the man standing at the very end.


"Is his son a farmer?!!"


"No, right? Even his son was a teacher in the city. He's not a farmer like his father."


"Do you know what all these examples mean?"


"Do you all know?" tanya Puang Tuo once again made all the citizens now whisper to each other.


"That means that what happens to us is not necessarily going to happen to our children or descendants."


"Everything has its own destiny and story."


"Nothing is the same about us as anyone else."


"Saoda may be a so-called figure but it is not necessarily down to Raina!!!"


"But here we are just trying to prevent!!!" cut out Edi's piles that haven't budged as well.


"Then what do you want to do to pour into Raina? Huh huh? Doused it with kerosene and burned it alive?!!"


"Are there no vile acts besides that?"


"He is also a living being, he can also feel pain."


"You have hurt her heart and life but you also want to hurt her by burning her?!!"


"Aren't you all thinking about what she's going to feel?!!"


"Are you crazy or are your minds no longer functioning properly?"


"What are your hearts made of? Is your heart made of stone so that it has no mercy?"


"Or have your hearts all been frozen with the insinuation?"


"Don't think about yourself but think about other people's feelings as well."


"Now you take the fire and put your index finger on the small fire for a minute. What are you feeling?!!"


"Didn't you all feel pain, then what if you burned it?!!"


"Where are your consciences?"


"Where?!!" shouts puang Tuo.


Puang Tuo now let out a long sigh. His throat seemed to have dried up after shouting at length.


"You may burn it but try to imagine if Raina, the girl you want to burn is one of your family members!"


"Imagine if Raina is our child, imagine!!! How would you feel if your son was burned alive until he died himself!!!"


"Are you not pity?!!"


The sound of shouting from Puang Tuo managed to make everyone now speak a thousand languages. No more talking after Tuo's poang voice dominated.


While in the same place now puang Edi who initially talked a lot is now only able to fall silent as if the explanation of the Tuo poang has entered his mind.


What Puang Tuo had said was all true and there were no more refutations.


"What are you waiting for?!! Come home, brothers, mulan!!"


"Go home!!!" yelling poang Tuo made all the residents whisper and look at each other as if they were asking each other.


"What are you waiting for?!!"


"Hurry up and forget what happened tonight!!!" yelling poang Tuo who the umpteenth time made one by one of them step away leaving the poang Tuo who now looks bored after shouting hard enough.


Puang Tuo now turned to look at Erni who was now seen crying looking at the figure of Raina who still held Saoda's head that looked abundant in blood even though it had been flushed by the swift rain.


Puang Tuo stepped closer to Erni, touching her shoulder slowly making Erni turn her head.


"It's okay."


"What, is Indo Saoda going to die?"


Puang Tuo bowed for a moment then he let out a long sigh.


"Any Parakang who has taken one hit from a broomstick will not be able to live again."


"No, Son. The great God has set one's destiny. Death is only God knows and koya can only wait for when death will come."


"Everybody who lives will feel death only we have to wait for time. How and when we die is really only God knows" he explained.


"But whether this incident will make Raina angry with Erni because Erni who can not help him and even prevent him."


"Son, what you've done is right. Raina also must not forget that Saoda who turned into the figure of Parakang almost made you his last victim."


"Raina mustn't forget that you almost died because of that ditch. The back is after you, son."


"You also mustn't just think of someone and forget about yourself."


"You're thinking too much about Raina's feelings to forget about yourself."


"You understand, don't you, son?" tanya Puang Tuo made Erni now nod.


Raina rubbed the bloody face using her right hand with a feeling of being smashed to pieces.


"Rain-Raina."


The voice sounded vaguely in his sense of hearing but he could still hear. It was Saoda's voice.


"Indo!!!" scream Raina.


"Well!" call Saoda again with a disjointed tone of voice.


Puang Tuo and Erni who saw this immediately looked at each other and ran over to Raina and Saoda.


"Well!"


"Yes, Indo. Raina is here" Raina said quickly as she rubbed Saoda's blood-soaked cheeks. The blood did not stop, flowing like a stream of water.


Saoda moved her blood-filled hand upwards with great difficulty making Raina quickly grab it and grasp it tightly.


"Raina," she said.


"Yes, Indo."


"I-I-I'm sorry for the mistake, I-i-indo."


Raina nodded with her lips which she bit trying to hold back her crying.


"Indo, te-te-have done much good deeds."


"Ka-ka-because of Indo selfishness. Indo ruined everything, ta-but this is all you need-you know, son."


"Behind this as-all there's a reason why I-I'm like this. Indo ti-it wouldn't be like this if ti-nobody caused it."


Raina scrunched her forehead, she did not understand what Saoda said.


"What does Indo mean?"


"Before I decide to become Pa-pa-parakang there is a reason."


"A-a-why I decided to become a creature, son."


"To be honest this is not the will of Indo, but ra-rasa anger that brings Indo to do it."


"What is it, Indo?"


"Not only Indo knows this story, but Pu-pu-puang Tuo also knows about the story in the past."


"Past time?"


"Yes, son," said Puang Tuo making Raina and Erni turn their heads.


"The story of the past that happened where atrocities happened in this village that succeeded."


"What cruelty is going on, poang?"


"The story is quite long, son. I don't know where to tell you from."


"Tell me the story, puang. I'm ready to hear it."


Puang Tuo now let out a long sigh. He paused for a moment then looked at Saoda's figure whose eyes were closed, but Puang Tuo was sure that Saoda was still alive.


"This story began 70 years ago...."
