Section 352: Zerata End (Temporary 1)
“As usual, Aditia just need time.” Hartino broke the silence.
“Kak, so why now Zerata sincere to be buried? And now he's being violent, then why now he wants to be buried?” Things that make Ganding confused since Alka told about her meeting with Zerata.
“Maybe ... she's tired of being a dairy cow, can't you see her body is so weak? he was also dragged roughly by his pack as we chased? Moreover, taking the souls of those little children slowly kills your soul and leaves you empty. We never spoke before, but I think that's what made him give up, in the end.”
“On the vision of Ganding, I think also strange, I mean, the vision that sometimes appears to help us that, usually always the projection of the future to help, but why for the different Ganding?” Hartino this time said.
“What Ganding saw was not entirely a lie, as you said when I passed out, if the events in his dream of Ganding really materialized right? Everyone did exactly as in Ganding's dream, almost killing each other, but ..Ganding was only shown in part, he was not shown the whole, he was not shown, if it turns out that it was he who made the dream not end tragically, that is why the dream of Ganding, so that he became weak and did not save us, because he is the key to our salvation, he said, like the future should happen, right? lucky, Ganding quickly realized, if only he was still weak and unconscious, he might take care of our funeral.” Alka explained, again this is just an assumption.
“Yes, when Aditia finally knocked me out, Jarni tried to wake me up, she slapped me in the face many times, Jar.” hurts
“Your fault, why are you so stupid. I want to fight, but you're sleeping.”
“I passed out beautiful princess!” Ganding was annoyed but still could only say out loud with beautiful words.
“Then?” Hartino reminded Ganding that he had not finished the story.
“After I realized that I was slapped, when I woke up Jarni and I agreed to find a way out, having another possibility to face Bikan Karma, it took 10 minutes finally to realize, that … all this time we always look for ways to fight children, not even on his side, will not children be the same, both who have become spirits and lives, they always like songs, love gifts, love, so we both agreed to pick up a loudspeaker, and then I remembered that you, Har, were a snack hoarder, you always had a snack in your bag and also accidentally put a snack in the van for you.
We confiscated all the snacks and took them to the shaman's yard, the next incident as you know, that I finally what you're doing stops, he said, you stopped killing each other because you were controlled from afar by Zerata. Her thread is Jarni ate the witch doll that Zerata used to control you from afar.”
“Which I wonder, why he can hook us with a simple doll, while he must have hair, nails and personal items that we have, such as pieces of cloth from clothes that we often wear.” Hartino's confused.
“I was wrong, I used to give it to him, as I have told you, I used to disappear to serve Darhayusamang, one of the evidences I gave him was to give Zerata the hair, nails and stuff that you used to wear to one day to be able to control you if I rebelled, I like to be willing to give it because of drunk on the sacred cada of a happy family. I'm sorry ..” Alka said.
“From all of us, no one is clean Sis, I made a mistake, Hartino too, Alisha is the same, Jarni never followed orders, we are not all clean people, we are not clean people, but everything we do always boils down to the word, protect, as long as we do to protect, then I think it's forgivable, about Aditia, we just need to give her time, I think, he is not a person who is difficult to approach, his name is Leader, there must be a blood of domination flowing, so dishonesty will be considered a rebellion for him, later if his heart is calm, he will come to us.” The banding calmed Alka and everyone.
…
Aditia came out of Ghaib's headquarters in a fit of annoyance, she drove her carousel with an unrelenting feeling, Ganding's betrayal, Alka's dishonesty, really upsetting her, hurt by the closest person was indeed incomparable to her pain.
He didn't go straight home but, but he turned the road, I don't know, there was no purpose, he just wanted to clear his mind.
Then arrived at a bridge, a bridge that is not too big, made of solid cement with a perfectly upright pole, but rarely passed, though to get to the village sebrang there is only this bridge as a link, people prefer to rotate, because he said this is a bridge breakup, every couple who dare to pass through it, and everyone who wants to go through it, surely the couple will break up, Aditia does not expect to break up from anyone, not from Alka or the herd, but she just needs a quiet place to calm down.
Aditia parked her cargo near the bridge, then came out of the angkot and walked towards the middle of the bridge, dark, she looked at the lights installed there, not working, damaged? Aditia is confused, because if it is damaged, but why does it look new? Aditia doesn't care, she just wants to be alone in a quiet place.
Then when it was getting to the middle of the bridge, Aditia saw someone standing there, she was wearing all black clothes. Almost invisible because it is disguised by the darkness of the night without lighting, fortunately his vision is still very sharp.
Aditia didn't mean to interfere, but somehow, she felt this person was about to commit suicide. That's why Aditia ran, she wanted to prevent it, so much closer, she saw this someone turned out to be a woman! She's a woman.
This person wears all black clothes, black shirt, black skirt, black hijab to his shoes.
Aditia increased her running speed, because in that second she saw the woman climbing the bridge.
His right leg had gone up to the shoulder of the bridge, but because he was wearing a long skirt, he had difficulty getting up, Aditia ran and held his body.
He pulled the woman until they both rolled over.
“You're crazy! You're going to kill yourself!” Aditia was upset to see this woman who took off the rough embrace of Aditia then sat quietly on the asphalt of the bridge by staring blankly at the shoulder of the bridge.
Aditia Noticing him, she was seen crying without a sound.
“Why? what's up?” Aditia approached him, the woman still staring blankly at the shoulder of the bridge.
The silence, the darkness that was there, made the air even more cold.
“I just want to know what it feels like, what kind of calmness he gets from, dying under this bridge.” The woman said, she finally spoke.
“Means?”
“I did not mean suicide, suicide is a sin, I just want to know, what he felt when tasting death by shortcut.” The woman said something confusing to Aditia.
“If you fall how?”
“Then it's fate, while I don't intend to die.”
“You approached him.”
“No, I'm not nearing death, I just want to know what it's like, to be near death, so that I can understand what he's feeling. I can always understand it, but in the end, I can't even know what she's feeling, I'm disappointed, if I only understood, of course I would divorce her. If only I knew this marriage didn't make her happy.”
Aditia fell silent, deserved she was wearing all black clothes, it turned out there was a reason, Aditia concluded her husband committed suicide here, so the woman was about to feel what her husband felt, she said, he could find peace there.
“I'll drive home.”
“It is not appropriate for a widow to be ushered home a man in the middle of the night, especially not even 40 days her husband is gone.”
“Then where do you want me to take you?”
“Leave it, I want to be alone.”
“I don't want to read the newspaper tomorrow, if there is a woman suicide from the bridge, you know, under that very heavy times, the water flow never calms down.”
“I won't kill myself.”
“Who knows? Just now you tried to climb onto the shoulder of the bridge, if I hadn't prevented it, you might have jumped.”
“Assumption, can not be proven the truth is not?”
“Fact if bad things have happened on that assumption. And then presenting guilt, that's what I'm avoiding. If you're talking destiny, maybe it's my destiny to meet you here and finally prevent.”
The woman finally stood up, gazed once again at the shoulder of the road and walked, away from Aditia, fortunately she walked towards her angkot Aditia.
“I take ya.” Aditia followed the woman, her face under the lights that lit up, after passing the bridge made the woman clearly visible, very charming beauty, Aditia was amazed and praised in her heart. How not, the face was pure white, without a single spot of blemish, her lips were reddish, her cheeks were blushing, even though she did not use makeup at all and was clearly visible in her eyes, if she was depressed, she said, but her pretty face did not fade at all. Very soft and shady face.
“I do not want to be the months of the men who patrol the home complex, I go home alone.”
“Isn't that more scary? You didn't kill yourself and then later became a victim or worse.”
“Why do you think so?” Aditia asked.
“Threatening is the way the ancients persuaded people to follow their wishes, like I was a child, who did not want to eat and was threatened to eat, said if they did not want to eat, I'll die.” The woman smiled.
“I'm not threatening, I'm just trying to help.” Aditia is embarrassed to look very aggressive, used to help make her unable to let go of someone who is clearly in danger if left behind.
“I'll take your angkot if you feel unsettled leaving me alone, I know that guilt can haunt. But I'll pay, where's this from? How can you get stray, do you also want to kill yourself?” The woman walked up to Aditai's angkot as she said quickly and sat down beside Aditia, the seat beside the steering wheel.
Aditia then entered the angkot and started driving her car.
“You're used to angkot? But why is your car so soft, unlike other angkot drivers? Your cargo also looks very good, unlike other angkot?”
“This angkot relics of my father, so I take care and not careless in using it.”
“Oh, fast. People do, if they like something very much, they will appreciate, other things if not too like, will not appreciate.”
“Where are you going?” Aditia asked, because she had already driven it quite far from the bridge.
“Let me down, where you think it's safe and you can calmly leave me.” The woman said calmly, though her face looked pale and depressed, but she was still able to calm down in words.
“Good.” Aditia drove with concentration, until there was no more talk afterwards.
After driving for 45 minutes, Aditia woke him up by patting the woman on the shoulder, a gentle and polite pat.
“We're here?” The woman asked.
“Iya.”
“Where is this?”
“My house.”
“Hah? why did you bring me here?”
“You said put it down in a place that makes me feel safe, here I think is the safest place.”
“You're crazy! What people say later.”
“Nobody knows you, they will only gossip me.”
“Then you will bear it?”
“Of course.”
“Kok can? We don't even know each other.”
“It could be if the choice is embarrassed or feel guilty because there are lives at stake, I choose shame.”
“I'm not done with your thoughts, young man.”
Aditia smiled, this woman did not look so old, but still felt Aditia was a young, strange child.
“Quick down, can I open the door?”
“No need, I can do it myself.” The woman got off the angkot and followed Aditia from behind.
When he entered, he saw his mother outside the room, shocked why Aditia brought a woman into the house, midnight like this, natural, not the habit of his son.
“This bu ... what is your name?” What a strange introduction.
“Kemala, call Mala only.”
“Loh, you guys haven't met?”
“My mother's son took me home because he thought I was going to kill myself, when he misunderstood me, I fell asleep in a cage so he didn't know if he was being taken home, we're just people who met by accident, if my mother objected to me here, no problem, I can find a place to go home and order a taxi, I'm sorry to bother.”
“No, it's okay, just stay here, can sleep in Aditia's room, later Adit sleeps on the sofa, I don't mind, just being confused.”
“I know now, from where the blood of goodness flows in the body of the mother's child, thank you for allowing me to spend the night, tomorrow I will go home.”
“Just sleep comfortably, have you eaten?”
“Already.”
“Long Mom, definitely not yet, any more food?” Aditia refuted the words of Kemala.
“There is, eat first let me prepare.”
“No need Mom, mom's child does like to assume, I will prepare myself, sorry to bother, there is the kitchen?” Then he went straight to the kitchen and prepared the food that was already there, only needed to be prepared to the dining table, he looked an expert in household affairs.
“Company, mother sleep first yes, tomorrow must prepare order cake.”
“Iya Ma'am, thanks ya already can nginep.”
“Iya, you eat first yes just slept.”
Aditia then sat down at the dining table, they both ate quietly, the woman did not say a word, she ate gracefully and quietly, Aditia smiled seeing Kemala so calm, she said, he looked very upset a moment ago.
