RUN

RUN
The Foreign Rejection


This boy screamed with a loud voice. At first there was nothing to disturb, until this loud voice slowly became and hurt the ears.


I grimaced, closing both my ears but the sound of his screams seemed to penetrate into the eardrum. I snorted while shutting his mouth to keep quiet.


"Saturday!!! Noisy knows! It could break my cowhide drum if you sound like that!" I whispered, made him fall silent and look at me.


I let go of the lump in his mouth, because it seemed like he was about to speak. "So he said to play? Nana's playing with you angry?"


"Nyinyinyiyi, would you like me to shove your head with a hammer, huh? Who wants to mess around, I'll take you home. Quickly show me where your house is!" grumble me, this kid really sucks.


"What does a handsome brother want to find in Nana's house? There's nothing in there. Brother don't leave Nana alone, later there are many people and sister no longer want to be friends with Nana." whine.


"You really think we're friends now, don't you? No!" reply to me without feeling.


"Yaaaaaaa."


"okay!! Be friends! We're friends foreveraa!!" screech me while covering my ears, before he yells increasingly.


"Well, so. Come on, Nana drive home" he said, clasping my hand and dragging it.


I grimaced amusedly while staring at the grip of his hand, as if holding a chicken mat.


This time I did not feel he was lying, because the route he took also looked different than the previous one.


"Whose name is big brother? It's been dead a long time?" he asked, as if he really wanted to be good friends with me.


"How many months." I said flatly.


He looked at me with his glance. "Know where this place is from? Did you get kicked out by Mom too?"


I nodded at hearing his words. "You're gonna get your mom out?" terka.


He nodded while looking back ahead. "At that time Nana was hit by a truck when she wanted to buy ice cream across the street. Mom cries and Nana sees Nana's body full of blood. Until Nana was taken to the hospital, and buried."


"Since that time Nana has always been near Mom. Seeing my mother crying and sad. Not want to eat. Until finally, I came and brought a friend."


I frowned, brought a friend??


"Nana Kira, it's a friend to Nana. And so that Mother is not sad. But it turns out, it's like Nana's replacement. I felt sorry for her, until Nana finally got angry, and destroyed the things in Nana's room, which the child now occupied."


"The boy was afraid, and Nana heard Mother driving Nana away. He even brought an ustadz home and did the cleaning. Nana's dumped, Nana doesn't want you anymore. Nana's friend took Mom and Dad. Nana was thrown by ustadz to this place. Since then, Nana can't remember Mom's face. Nana was sad." she explained at length, with a tone of voice that sounded full and trembling.


And I feel that his hand is weakening. He was shaking, even I could feel him right away.


Pity me, but.. what should I do? So nanny?? I hate humans, especially children. Ghost again.


"Yes." I was short flat, as if not too pity and interested in the story. But, a smiling look emanated from Nana's face, as she turned around and looked at me. He looked, looked down and looked at our hands.


"Sister, return Nana's hand?" tanyanya could not believe it. But, it seemed like it was good enough to calm him down. I don't know how to comfort people or other ghosts and say sweet words to them. It's just that, when it's sad, I always need someone who can hold my hand, and it seems.. Nana needs that too, right??


Nana's slightly sinister face was now beginning to change. Her face looks petite, puddly and pug. Even his two eyes looked extremely large.


"Your face changed?" I said amazed, because now he looks more like a funny human child.


He nodded his head. "The ghost will show its beautiful face when it trusts its interlocutor." he said.


I blinked and imagined Wenna's suddenly beautiful face when she met us. So he trusts us too?? But, Tamusong??


Why do I still see his ugly face. Does he not trust me, even everyone he talks to??


"Masa'? I show this face not because I trust you." I reply, making Nana look at her with her big eyes.


"Then because of what? Because my brother is handsome? So can't you vilify her face?" he told me, making me hold back my laughter.


"not that. Maybe because I don't mourn and don't think too much about my death. My form when I die was almost forgotten, remember also because there is a reminder." I said, making Nana frown while staring forward again.


"Actually Nana was afraid to see the faces of spooky ghosts, let alone kuntilanak ghosts like us. But, Nana's getting used to it, after all, Nana's also a ghost, so why fear?" he murmured, just kept talking as if he did not run out of materials.


Nana who was flying suddenly stopped, she pointed forward while looking at me. "There is the residence of Kuntilanak. Wanna enter?" bargained for. "Nana can call our leader, will you?" ask again.


"Yes." I said briefly. Why would I come here if it wasn't for that. Tamusong already got a place to live with his friends, so I also want to get the same thing.


Nana flew back, heading for a big shade tree. The roots of the hanging tree extend long, even to the point of being rolled over the ground covered in dry leaves and bushes.


In every big tree, there are many herbs and also plants like grass that are wrapped around. Even the mosses decorate this tree.


I flicked the strands of hanging roots blocking the view. The more it went inside, the more trees were larger than before.


"Uphi!" I gasped, as a strange smell smelled in my nose. The smell is stinging, there is a scented smell there is also a very rotten.


Slowly but surely, I saw some sightings of female kuntilanak playing and swinging on a hanging tree. There is creeping on every tree like a lizard. There are those perched up there just chatting.


I looked down, frowning at a ghost Kuntilanak who grinned with a wide laugh while shaking his head left and right in a circular motion.


Nana immediately burst out, hugging my hand while holding her hand towards the kuntilanak earlier. "Don't be disturbed!! It's Nana's!!" he strangled, making this ghost gasp and close his ears, as if he already knew that Nana's voice was indeed as frenzied as it was.


"Who are you carrying? Never been seen. Very handsome face." he chimed while still staring at me.


"She's Nana's new friend, coming here to meet the master. He wants to stay with us." explained Nana, making this Kuntilanak increasingly develop a smile.


"Huh, what did I think. Yes, yes, sana!" he kicked us out.


Nana flew back, ignoring every eye that looked at us. I was still looking around, until something strange suddenly felt inside me.


Nyuu...


My head suddenly dizzy. I nodded and grabbed my own head. Nana called out, when she saw me as if in pain, but the voice was just like an inaudible hum.


The longer it took, I felt this sense of hearing was slowly disappearing. I could only see the worried face of Nana and her mouth moving silently.


Puk!!


Nana hit me on the shoulder, making me gasp until the voice that had disappeared slowly reappeared.


"Sister why? Sick brother?" tanyanya's worried. I let out a sigh of relief, it finally sounded.


I held my hand before him, as if I didn't want him to worry so much. My body bowed and my eyes glanced, staring at something that was floating before us.


A creepy woman. Her hair was dreadful, tangled and long until it touched the ground. His clothes were white, long to cover his legs. Both hands reveal long-nailed fingers, even to the extent of rolling so long.


His skin and face were extremely pale, his lips were purplish blue, and the circles around his eyes were reddish-black.


Its shape is very large and high, almost the same as the pocong Adri I had met. The aura of this kuntilanak is very strong, even I feel the pain of his arrival.


I looked up, trying to look at him closely. Merely, I saw the body gesture and also the look of his eyes was less friendly. Different from Tamusong's arrival.


"Nana, who have you brought to our place?" he asked, with a falset sound that makes my hair bristling.


"Silver-looking. He wants to be Nana's friend and stay with us" Nana said in an excited voice. He did not forget to smile after saying it.


This woman looked at me, staring at me without blinking. "Right, you want to stay in this place?" tanyakanya.


I nodded my head and did not take my eyes off him. "My name is Ancient, I haven't died long ago and ended up in this place. I was evicted from my own home, and now this place is my last residence. I hope that the lady will accept my arrival and accept my presence in this place." I said, not usually saying things at length with a serious face.


This woman looked at me with a twitch, she snorted while taking her eyes off. "I'm sorry, but you're not welcome in this place" he said, leaving me gasping and of course not accepting.


"Huh? What the fuck? Wh why? Is there something wrong with my death history?? My friend was easy to enter the residence of the pocongs, why was I rejected?" ask me wonder.


This commotion turned out to provoke the other kuntilanak to arrive. They heard what we were making noise in this place.


"Pocongs? Heh, the Adri is weak, so it is easy to accept new people in his place. But, I'm not like it, so just throw away your desire to be in this place." she refused again, and this time it sounded haughty.


"Okay, if you refuse me it doesn't matter!" I said, making Nana gasp in shock.


"Why is my sister talking like that?" his protest.


"But include the reason as well." I said, with eyes so sharp and intimidating.


Kuntilanak was wide open after hearing my words, even kuntilanak who were around us did the same thing, until their leader stopped, then these kuntilanak silent.


"Reason?? I, just accept kuntilanak ghosts in general. But, you. See that you're different." she said, making me wince in wonder. "You are the only male kuntilanak, and again.your face, is not from a real Indonesian ghost. You, a foreign ghost?" he asked, making both my eyes wide, even almost jumped out when he heard it.


"You have to accept it, if a foreign ghost is never received at the kuntilanak society." he said, affirming his words.


No!!


The time' the hell in the ghost world also excommunicated me about this difference?? Just because I look foreign and different, that's why I'm in one eye.


Then, what difference does it make to live here.. with in the human world?? Even here, I am not accepted.
