Rania's Invisible Search
PART 244 GUESSING?
"It could be Ran, but what really happened in the past anyway? Why would Wening have such a grudge?"
"The story is long. There are some things I don't know about in the past. Because I saw it from an inner vision that suddenly appeared. At that time I had not moved to the village, so I did not know many people including Mbah Wongso's family. So Mbah Wongso was Mbah Karto's sister, but they had different beliefs. One practiced white magic, the other black science. Well the beginning of my arrival to the village was, I want to be bumbalin with Mbah Wongso. Luckily there is a Petter who quickly asked for help with Mbah Karto. So I survived the donation, and eventually all the villagers knew that Mbah Wongso was actually a bad guy. When the villagers wanted to evict Mbah Wongso from the village, it turned out that he had already fled somewhere. And it turns out from that inner vision, then I know that Wening with his family is still in the house. All the villagers came and damaged Mbah Wongso's house. Luckily, his family managed to escape from the house. And the family is Wening with his Uncle and Aunt with one toddler. They hide behind the bush until it's safe. Then they secluded themselves out of the village, while Mbah Wongso was not yet known where he was at that time. Wait, Mom, I feel so bad." I said by hooking both eyebrows.
I remained silent and closed both eyes. I focused my mind, then rethinking everything that happened in the past.
Degh degh.
My heart was beating irregularly, it seemed like I was already very slow to realize everything. From the beginning, Wening had already told her life story. In fact, he said he wanted to take revenge on everyone who had destroyed the happiness of his family. So that means not only the late Mbah Karto who hated it. But also all the villagers of Rasa Belatung Village who had made him and his family go from their own home. Even I was also one of the targets of her revenge.
"Lu why Ran? How come I'm surprised at that?" Ask Mbak Ayu while closing his head.
"Bak like we do not need to make sure to Watu Pocong Deh Village. I'm sure of everything, if the Wening was his grandson the late Mbah Wongso. Even though I never knew or met him. But I'm sure Wening knows exactly who I am. Surely he intends revenge on me maybe even not only me, but all villagers also threatened his safety. I'm afraid Ma'am, that Wening is really avenging all the villagers. Because there was no one else to protect. While Mr. Jarwo also traveled a lot, and rarely in his village. Then who will protect all the residents of Rawa Belatung Village?" I answered with a loud breath.
"So what are you going to do now? There is no way you can directly accuse Wening, not necessarily he will ngaku Ran. He could be clumsy, and not admit the facts."
"That's what makes me confused. Maybe if I'm on the shelf and pretend I don't know who he is. I'll find it easier to track him. Because he likes to talk bluntly, if he does not like or want to say what."
"But he can stab you from behind Ran! In fact, in the office he wants to compete with you. He wants to look superior to you. Hmm it could be that he's in cahoots with his twin spirits, and takes Petter from you. Maybe not just Petter, but everything you own. Be it career, friendship or heart problems. And he also still wants to avenge all the villagers who have made him evicted from his own home. Mending you consult with Mr. Jarwo, who knows he can give advice. Before bad things happen in your village!" Pungkas Mbak Ayu awakened me. If a few days ago, Wati called me and told me about the strange events that happened there.
Some people suddenly became ill, and suddenly died. Even though they only had a normal fever, it probably had something to do with Wening's revenge. Moreover, he once said, that his Pakde also has a devotion like Mr. Jarwo. It will make it easier for him to take revenge. God, what should I do if all my guesses are true. I ruffled my coarse hair, frustrated at the thought of it all.
"So Wening feels in the same dzolimi of the villagers, and intends to avenge them all? What about Grandpa, Dong? Mbah Karto is dead too, cook him want revenge too?"
"I don't know I'm either. Somehow I deal directly with Wening every day. I suspect he deliberately worked in the same office as me. He had evil intentions from the beginning to get into my circle."
"Yes Ran, you try to call Wati first. Ask how things are in the village, fearing our suspicions are real. And all the villagers are at risk of his safety."
I called Wati many times but my call didn't ring at all. It looks like there's no signal in the village, or Wati's phone is off. I left a short message, and asked him to contact me immediately.
"Patience Ran. I'll always be by your side, no matter what happens in the future."
"Thanks Ma'am, if there's no you don't know how I'm gonna put all this in."
"Casual Ran. So tomorrow's a fix, we're not going to Wening's village, are we?"
"No need, I can still monitor him directly. Let me pretend I don't know anything. Let Wening not feel threatened, and he can be careless about doing something and leave a trace of his actions. But I'm going to consult with Mr. Jarwo. Now I understand the message of the late Mbah Karto, so that I do not find out what is in the past. Maybe he does not want me to be wretched, if I come to the village of Wening. Because every evil deed, it will reveal itself. Hopefully, all the villagers will be well. And what happened there had nothing to do with Wening's revenge."
I sat with my head against the wall. Again on the roof of this house there are several demits flying. It was probably Wening's man, who was ordered to monitor all my activities.
