Mystery of Room 13
Part 20: Cuekin Ghosts

Again and again I have been deceived by an invisible creature, which resembles the Beautiful and seeks to trap me in its deceit. Let alone the Beautiful that was tortured on the second floor was just a trick of their nation. Gathering the remaining courage, I ran as far as I could even though the disfigured woman continued to cry and ask for help. I won't be stuck anymore, I try not to care about her whereabouts. My only thought was to get out of this horrible building immediately.

I stepped as fast as I could towards the iron door. My smile was thin when I saw the rusty door in front of me. But when I opened it, it was not the exit but the room that contained the machine. I searched again despite the sound of crying and moaning but again I found no way out. I was almost desperate because fear was starting to reign.

"Stupid! Why didn't you just obey me!" the whisper of someone surprised me. I haven't looked around, my hands were held tightly and then dragged somewhere. Faint in the darkness I began to recognize this figure in front of me. My smile was floating because he managed to reach the real door and managed to get out safely.

In the dark of the night, I sat in the office parking lot. He who managed to take me out of the building, handed me a bottle of mineral water whose contents were still half. With doubt I grabbed it.

"Drink only. It's plain water not poison water, so there's no need to be afraid." I slowly drank it to slightly reduce the pounding of my heart that was still beating fast.

"Thank you, Ma'am," I said softly.

"It's so stupid of you. I told you not to go near that building. What's really on your mind, anyway?"

"But, Ma'am. I saw it beautiful, my friend went in there."

"That's just your friend's incarnation. You're a man don't be fooled. Already, let's go back to the production building. It's a waiting job and your friend must be worried because you're running around."

I just kept quiet because I realized this was also my mistake that was too innocent. With gontai I followed in the footsteps of Mbak Juniyati. In the building, I was greeted with a hug by Indah as well as some other friends.

"Where are you, Ma'am? The right feeling I want to sleep, you've slept first. But as soon as I wake you up, it's no longer beside me. Beautifully thought Sister Hanna was in the bathroom. Pas Indah after, Ms. Hanna does not exist. Of course I panicked, let alone fittingly searched into the production room was also empty there was no one."

"Ta-tadi, I walked into the spinning building," I whispered softly into Beautiful's ears. There's no way I'm telling everyone that I've broken my taboo.

"Astagfireullah! Ma'am, why did you get into that dark building?"

"That's him I don't understand. As I recall the building was very bright as well as many people who were there. Even on the second floor many people were dressed as if there was a party..."

Lovely patting her forehead hearing my story. "Ouch, Ma'am. Where there's a party at three in the morning like this. After all, if there is a sister Hanna why go there? Want to party too?"

"It's not that rich either, Paijem. I went there because there's a creature that resembles you again. As if I was following him. You were also tortured by the people on the second floor. That's why I came in, his intention was to help you. Uh, I almost got stuck in a room where there was only me and that ugly woman. It's a good thing that Juniyati's mom came to my aid."

"Yes, the important thing is, Sister Hanna is not okay, I'm very relieved." The petite girl hugged my shoulder even though her feet kept on tiptoes.

"Already, who will miss later. Now work again!" The high-pitched remarks belonging to Mbak Juniyati dispersed the crowd as well as an Beautiful hug. We are preparing to continue the work that was delayed.

Well, how could I forget. Since the incident I have not had time to thank Mbak Juniyati. When work began to be relieved, I walked closer to Mbak Juniyati who was putting a label.

"Mom," call me slowly.

"What's? Is something wrong with my job?" I'm shaking. "Lo, what's going on?"

"mmmmmmm. Ha-hanna wants to say thank you, Ma'am. If there's no June, Hanna doesn't know what happened. Maybe Hanna's gonna get stuck in that creepy building with the ghosts or maybe Hanna's fate will be the same as the girl who told me in my room."

"I don't really know for sure, Ma'am, but people say there's a girl missing in the boarding room I'm in right now."

"Wait, may you be occupants of room number thirteen in the green index, located behind this factory?"

"Yes, Mother. It turns out that the awesomeness of my index is already famous and spread everywhere huh. It has become a byword and is no longer a big secret in the eyes of society."

"Of course I know, because I used to be almost the occupant of that room too but fortunately there were relatives of mine who asked me to stay with them. Good luck protecting me, if I don't know what I'm gonna be."

I nodded with his words. "Alhamdulillah, Sister June is still protected."

"And I also know the girl who was missing in the index. His name is Gayatri, Quality Control is like you. He used to be a prima donna in this factory. Many men tried to approach her but her heart just fell in the wrong place."

"What do you mean, Ma'am?"

Mbak Jun glanced at the clock as well as the surveillance cameras installed in the corner of the room. "Tomorrow whenever I tell you. You better finish your job first. Instead of swift we will not meet the target. As a result, we are all affected. Besides, if you stay in my machine for a long time, there's an audit team looking through CCTV, they might think I made a big mistake."

Why didn't I realize that there was a surveillance camera in this room. "Mbak Jun, there are a lot of questions that Hanna wants to ask. Hopefully next time we can talk more. Honestly, Ma'am, Hanna was really confused why the terror of invisible creatures kept approaching since I lived there. The unsolved murder mystery of a sadist plus the disappearance of the girl whose name is Gayatri leaves me confused. Like a string!"

"Don't think too much, Han. Later you whine, bother all of us. Oh yes, you have to be careful in everything. If you don't want to be the same fate as Gayatri. Keep close to God. If there is a strange sound or thing, cuekin. Long ago the ghost also went by itself."

"Duh, can it be weird if there's such a weird thing? If you can run."

"Here, the building is haunted you reckless datengin. If it's just a small sound, it's definitely."

His small laugh, made me smile wryly because I knew for sure Mbak Jun was insinuating me who foolishly entered the famous haunted building. I went back to the table where I sorted the produce.

"To-please, help me." Whispers with a hoarse voice again ringing in my ears, immediately the hair of this sitting goosebumps.

"Help me!" The voice was gone and raised, sometimes it sounded far away but sometimes it sounded so close like it was right in my ear.

"Astagfirullah, don't bother ya." I continued to say that while my hands continued to work so that the sound did not successfully affect my activities.

After not succeeding in scaring me with a voice for help, now the scissors that had been in front of me moved themselves to the end of the table and finally fell. I tried to control myself who was being frightened. Acting as relaxed as possible I picked up the scissors lying on the floor, as if nothing had happened.

Suddenly, when the night was almost over a shrill scream surprised everyone who was busy with their respective work. A girl whose machine was right next to Beautiful, collapsed then roared and her eyeballs turned all white.
