Rania's Invisible Search
PART 232 PETTER IS MISSING!
Arriving at the boarding house, I did not go directly into the room. I deliberately sat on the front porch, and inhaled the night air from the trees in the garden. I send my head to the wall by raising my head to the sky. Seemed various ghosts wander in no direction. They're coming out of the nest. A female Demit peeked out from behind a tree branch. Maybe he thought I couldn't see it, so I just let him out with his silliness. Shortly after that, Ayu came out of her room. He was carrying a plastic pack of rice boxes that were given to me.
"Eat first continue to rest, today very tired yes. Until I can't open the door?" Gurau Mbak Ayu raised his eyebrows.
"Gue is wrong, if you have a bad feeling with others. Especially the ones I just met." I said with a long breath.
"What a bad feeling is Ran?"
"Gue felt that Wening was different from the other people around me. He wants to compete in everything, just like me. Not because I feel envious or how, because several times he blatantly want to take what I have. He said he wanted me to be, so he always tried to be in front of me. For example, like that, when we finish the Arfi problem. Once or twice I can still think positively, but this is several times the same event."
"Haha... You know Ran! You said you just knew Wening. She might want to call what you have. If the problem of competing seems natural, surely he wants to be superior to you. Not in the world of work is such a common thing. But make your other talk, kind of absurd. Unless you've known him for a long time, it's a different story."
True too, said Mbak Ayu, maybe he really wants to compete with me. By proving he is superior to me, surely he can be immediately easily appointed as a permanent employee. But still my premonition was somewhat different with her, not to mention every single remark she said. Always full of puzzles, which I don't know the answer to.
"Why even diem Ran? Honestly, at first I also felt bad feeling as a child. Lu inget, is it fitting that I shake hands with Wening? There was a hot aura that made my body tremble, rejecting the energy he was emitting. That's why I put my hands out rough. But after seeing him yesterday help us solve Arfi's problems, I'm trying to change my mindset. Maybe there was something wrong with myself. I think it's a good boy, try to adapt to him first. Maybe you just misunderstood me. If you don't know, then don't love Ran!"
"Well, you know Ma'am! Just not familiar, how the hell!"
I went into the room and cleaned myself up. After that I prayed and prayed. I held the prayer beads in my hand, a glimpse of someone's shadow appearing in my inner vision. A young girl was crying. He hid under the bed, with a body trembling in fear. Then a man came and took her away from home. They came out through the back door, there waiting for a woman with a toddler in a sling. The three ran stumbling from the house without carrying any valuable items. There was only one large bag that a man had brought. And behind them are already many citizens who surround their homes. Finally the three hid in the bushes until the conditions were conducive. Some residents began to damage the house, they took out all the items in it. The young girl was teary-eyed in silence, her hands clenched in anger as they were forced out of her own home. But who they are, why am I looking at all this while I never see their faces.
I opened my eyes with breath. What kind of vision did I see just now, was it a clue. But the clue to what, my inner self in my heart is full of questions. If the great-grandfather had come and given an explanation, surely I would not have been confused. I ate a rice box with grilled chicken side dish given by Mbak Ayu earlier. I play music to melt the atmosphere, slowly my eyes begin to weigh. I brush my teeth and lay down my body on the bed. Aah it feels very comfortable to lie down without the burden of thoughts like this. I don't know how long I've been shut up, because I've been dreaming about seeing the same young girl again. He was crying in front of a small hut, he mentioned the word Mbah repeatedly. Then a couple came and hugged him. They said they would soon meet with her Mbah, and asked the girl to be patient. Their lives are very difficult, only surviving with the results of the garden they planted themselves. Until one day a young man came to their little hut. At that time the young girl I saw was a little more mature. He was surprised to see a man coming, and greeted his family. Suddenly a familiar voice rang out in my ears, he woke me up from sleep. When I was not in both eyes, Aunty Ivanna was standing floating beside my bed. I was still not fully conscious, and stretched the muscles in the body.
"Aunty what's coming here? Did something happen to Silvia?" Ask me as I get out of bed.
"Nee Rania's. Nothing happened to your friend. It's precisely Aunty came to look for Petter, since last night he disappeared. Did he go see you?" Answer with questions.
I shook my head and scratched my non-itchy head. Petter doesn't usually leave without saying goodbye. Is he being met with some Dutch ghosts that are around the Port. But there's no way he's gone without completing the task I gave him.
"Hmm Rania doesn't know where Petter Aunty is. From last night he didn't come here, maybe he went somewhere. Try Aunty call him again, invite him to keep an eye on Silvia. After taking a bath, Rania will try to communicate with Petter through the mind. Usually he would come right away if Rania called him." Obviously I'm hooking both eyebrows.
I'm actually still wondering where Petter went. Wasn't she supposed to be enjoying Silvia's chocolate milk last night. There's no way he's just gone, let alone being with his mom. Something might happen to Petter. In this blind morning my feelings became unsettled, because thinking about my little friend who does not usually go without saying goodbye. I hope Petter is okay wherever he is. Because I would feel so guilty, if something bad happened to her. After Aunty Ivanna sped away, I could not calm down and paced back and forth in the room. Maybe it's better if I do the morning prayer first, who knows I get a clue about Petter's whereabouts right now.
