SAWMILL
26.ACTIVITY AS USUAL
I rush to open the door of the locked room, I move the fear that had made me not dare to come out of the room.
I walked out of the house, and it turns out that the solar delivery car is already in front of the fence, the pickup truck in the tub there are some drums that may contain solar.
“Maap sir, I overslept, until arrived what time was pak”
I screamed as I opened the turnstile and met the person leaning against the car door
“So I got here at 5.30 p.m., I called you, but I might not hear. By the way Mamad mana sir, usually he will be on standby in front of house” said the driver
“Mamad died last night in his village, probably because of being hit by a bus or how I was less clear sir. Oh yes my name is Agus, I replaced Mr. Wandi”
“Inalillahi wainailaihi rojiun.ay Allah he is a good boy sir may husnul khotimah”.
The driver was silent for a while, maybe he lost the figure of Mamad
“Eh sir, usually how is this if there is a solar shipment coming?”
“Eh sorry Mr. Agus, I am shocked by the death of Mamad, uh my name is Joko sir. Uh usually Mamad open the side gate that, uh how notya usually from out there” point Joko sir
“Later I will lower these two solar fill drums, and the empty one I will bring again”
“Ya already then Mr Joko, we are back, oh yes sir, is the back door padlocked yes sir?”
“Hehehe yes Mr. Agus, so as far as I know there is a lock key that Mamad brought, and there is another lock key that Mr. Solikin” brought
I was carrying a collection of keys to this house, and with Mr. Joko I headed to the back of the house.
It turns out that Mr. Joko is not alone, on the front bench of the pickup car there is a theme that may later be in charge of moving the solar drum contents.
The rear gate is wide enough, it is made wide so that the logs and trucks carrying pallets can enter without difficulty.
Frankly, I have a hard time finding a lot of keys because I do not memorize one by one the keys that I am holding
“Eh sorry sir, I first find where the corresponding key pak”
While I tried one by one the dozen key children who were on me
While I was trying various keys, suddenly from behind the house, four workers came to the gate
“This is Mr. Agus, let me just open hehehe” said mr. Solikin
After finishing the solar payment and then the solar delivery car left, I sat in the amben close to the well. Suddenly Solikin came to me.
“Pak Agus, can I talk to you for a moment sir. This is about us who work here Pak”
Mr. Solikin sat next to me with a serious face
“How about sir, can I help mr Solikin?”
“Begini Pak Agus, the first is Pak Agus must immediately find a replacement for Mbah Karyo, because if only the four will definitely limp the results of his work pak”
“The second is the most important, because Mr. Agus has seen the occult tomb, then what I fear is the death of the people around Mr. Agus, and this is what our workers fear Pak”
“They used to not want to work sir, but after a few times I persuaded them finally want to also go to work, they were at fear”
Mr. Solikin was silent for a moment, it seemed like he was allowing me to think what I should do.
“The people here are still thinking like that and maybe also Mr. Agus will also think the same as them if Mr. Agus lives here”
One of them took water from the well, he put it in a bucket, then the man headed to the tomb on the end of the yard.
Then the tomb was soaked with water taken from the well.
“Try Pak Agus see that Mr. Rokim, he was always diligent to wet the tomb, but we do not know whose tomb”
“But I know a lot of history here. Later, Agus will tell me about”
“Only this story is based on a word-of-mouth story which of course has many additions and subtractions”
“Iya sir I know, but did Mbah Karyo die because I saw something in the forest?”
“Begini Pak Agus, the people here believe that the death of Mbah Karyo and Mamad was the result of Pak Agus seeing something in the forest there it”
Mr. Solikin was silent while sucking his cigarette, he looked at the workers who were sorting the wood they would use for the manufacture of pallets
“I actually do not believe in the Mystical thing, but because the people in the village who strongly believe in such things then indirectly I also believe”
“And with the death of Mbah Karyo and Mamad, the villagers then contacted Pak Agus who had seen the grave of the ghoib was”
“Eh pak Agus... did Mr. Agus not go to Mamad's house, well just for his condolence sir, because my father is Mamad's superior?”
“But it turns out there is one trust that comes from Mamad before he died pak”
“This is based on the story of Mamad's friend who had called Mamad before he took a bus to his village sir. So the story is like this”
“When we wanted to know that night, Mamad and I were confronted by the appearance of Mbah Karyo on the bridge, it was a harbinger”
“Mamad heard Mbah Karyo's voice saying that Mamad should leave here as soon as possible”
“Makanya the next night Mamad permission me to go home, and the plan is Mamad will not return here”
“He told his friend that Mamad would not come back here, and I did not have to search his village, because he was afraid that I would bring along the demit here”
“Eh turns out that tomorrow morning Mamad's friend came and told him that Mamad was dead”
“Mamad said like that to his theme, automatically I can not go there, even though he is dead I can not go there pak”
Mr. Solikin was silent again, he was staring at the worker again
“Then how about Mr Solikin, what should I do here sir?”
“Pak Agus..hmmm I am also confused because usually this situation only applies to the natives here or the descendants of this area only shown the grave ghoib it”
“Mamad or Mr. Wandi who has lived here for a long time has never seen the tomb”
“Kata Mamad, Mr. Wandi who always came home the night after from the wartel alone never saw the sighting was also”
“Means I was surprised also Mr. Agus, why Pak Agus can be seen the sighting of strange tombs in the forest”
“I also do not know Mr. Solikin, why I can see the middle tomb of the forest it”
“Beginnya Pak Agus, try Pak Agus ask his extended family Pak Agus, whether sampean has blood descendants from this area or not”
“Ya already Mr. Agus, I have to work first, not good with others if I only chat here”
Mr. Solikin then joined the workers who were lifting the wood and put it in the cutting machine
I went into the house feeling confused, why could there be two people who died after I was here. Then is the talk of Mr. Solikin can be trusted?
I headed to the living room and sat down in the blind chair facing out.
“What happened to me, why did I get like this?”
Until a while I just sat daydreaming in the living room, looking out and looking at my room and Mamad's room.
Who was that last night? why can he press the door handle and even knock on the door leaf. Can a ghost do such a thing?
Then I stood up and I saw my door handle, I also noticed the floor in the living room, who knows there are footprints here.
It turned out that everything was clean and left no trace, meaning that something came from inside the house, if he was from outside the house there must be footprints attached to the floor.
Who and where did this strange thing come from?
I saw the door of Mamad's tightly closed room, I was curious about the state of the room.
“Hmmm I have to check Mamad's room and clean up what's there”
I went back to the back of the house to call Mr. Solikin to help me open Mamad's room and clean it up.
“Pak Solikin... can come here for a minute sir!”.
“What's up Mr Agus?” Mr. Solikin ran a little towards me….
“Look sir, um can help me to open the locked room Mamad sir, uh I want to clean his stuff pak”
“Begini Pak Agus, it is better to wait until 7 days first, only later Pak Agus can clean the room, according to the custom here pak”
“Because according to the custom here, he will come for the last time to where he usually move and he will see his stuff first pak”
“Oh .. then yes sir. Oh yes sir, um I want to talk to you, but please keep Pak” secret
“Let's go Mr. Agus, my ocean time we talk. Not now, pity the person working behind it pak”
“Ya already pak”
After Mr. Solikin returned to where he worked, I went to the bathroom. Unfortunately, the water from the bathtub was empty.
“Ya already, do not ngangsu banyu disik ae, all sports, mumpung behind many rames that are working”
