Umm Sibyan
Chapters 15. The angel of death


Faintly, Aruna hears Kala's voice talking to someone but Aruna does not know who because she feels foreign to the voice. Until Aruna heard the sound of the door being opened and then closed again, only after that Aruna opened her eyes and blinked weakly to adjust the light that entered her retina.


The first sight Aruna saw was the ceiling of the room was white and the aroma of drugs that so stung his sense of smell. Aruna still does not understand the existence of his present because now, someone like is checking the condition of his body which is only silent stiff.


"Luckily, no serious problems. The baby is also in good health. This is truly a miracle, sir," said the person who made Aruna's consciousness fully recollected.


Aruna stared around the wall paint color dominated by white. When he looked to the side, he could see an infusion pole with half-living liquid and an oxygen cylinder. "I where?" tanya Aruna tried to remember the incident she had experienced so that it could take her to that place.


"You're in the hospital. I'm happy you finally woke up after three days of unconsciousness. Our baby is also fine and is still being given protection by God," replied Kala to give thanks for the recovery of the wife's consciousness. He also repeatedly gave soft kisses on his wife's temple which made Aruna immediately close her eyes because she felt so safe and comfortable.


Feeling that, Aruna also remembered the last incident she experienced. He looked at Kala who was currently trying to avoid looking face to face with him. "Mass? Which mother? How come it's not here?" aruna asked with her voice that sounded so weak because her energy was like being drained for three days that was not eating and drinking. His body only obtained the energy supply from the infusion liquid that was currently flowing into his body.


Instead of answering, Kala instead shifted the conversation about her mother-in-law. "You want a drink? Let me buy you some mineral water in front first, huh? You must be thirsty." Without waiting for an answer from his wife, Kala just passed by and walked out of the room currently inhabited by Aruna.


"Mas.. You haven't answered my question yet" sheckled Aruna trying to get up from her sleep and would chase after Kala. However, when he felt pain in his lower abdomen, Aruna immediately undo the intention and could only sigh slowly.


Fifteen minutes passed, Kala finally returned with two bottles of mineral water and some food directly placed on the nightstand next to the bed of the patient Aruna occupied.


"Mass? Mother where?" asked Aruna again like tireless to ask the whereabouts of his mother.


Kala cleared his throat slowly before answering Aruna's question. "There was. Mother... at home," answered Kala looks very dubious because Aruna understands how Kala's attitude when being nervous, and Kala's current attitude really refers to the behavior.


"If you're home, why have you been avoiding answering questions from me? You look nervous too, Mom. I-i know. There must be something that you are covering up" said Aruna and Kala decided to sit on a chair while facing his wife. Kala's face looked very tired and like many burdens of life that he was carrying alone.


"Mas! Answer it! Mom's okay, right? Because last time I saw Mom, I wasn't okay. Where's mom, Mas?" asked Aruna who now began to shed tears because she felt worried about the condition of the mother at this time.


Rough breaths were heard from Kala which made Aruna more convinced if her mother must be not okay or also being treated like her. "Mass?" please Aruna who made her husband now look at Aruna so deeply.


"Mas! What the hell are you talking about? No way, Mom! How can a person who is possessed have to die? It can't be!" elak Aruna before Kala managed to finish his sentence.


"Silent. You have to be calm, Aruna," said Kala trying to calm even though the condition of his feelings is still so mixed between unexpected, sad, and so deep pain. In fact, the departure of Bu Gayatri was able to make Kala unable to sleep for several days because of the feeling of loss so great. Not to mention the condition of Aruna who never realized, making Kala like it already has no spirit of his life anymore.


"How can I calm down, Mom? When I woke up, I didn't find my mother here. You can't leave me, Mom. Impossible," raved Aruna started to move directionally and cried as she pleased.


...----------------...


Two days after waking up, Aruna forced herself to go home and rest at home. Although Kala continued to force Aruna to stay longer in the hospital, Aruna still did not want to. He doesn't need drugs and all sorts of medicals because all he needs this time is to find out about his mother's death that feels awkward.


Kala had told all the events while in Bu Gayatri's room where Aruna was already in a weak condition because her stomach was tightly gripped by Bu Gayatri. When Kala entered, his mother was aware of a trance with a very sad condition, namely his head that had turned and faced backwards.


"Wamma! Mama!" yelled Kala who made Bu Gayatri's head spin backwards. Despite his fear, Kala still approached Aruna and tried to be his protector because Bu Gayatri's body was now like being possessed.


"Go you! Don't disturb my family!" pekik Kala was as strong as he held Aruna who was already in an unconscious condition.


"Reply take Aruna to the hospital. I will fight the figure who enters the mother's body. Please, take good care of Aruna, Kala." The words from his mother-in-law made Kala realize that the one who had just spoken was really Bu Gayatri. However, the next incident of Ms. Gayatri turning her head back quickly made Kala only able to close her eyes while reciting the prayers she could.


"Then... Kala. "call Bu Gayatri who makes Kala open her eyelids again.


Kala's mouth immediately gaped wide with both eyes perfectly rounded when he saw the condition of Bu Gayatri which was so terrible. At that moment, Kala cried bitterly to see the entire joints of Bu Gayatri like spinning and not in a natural condition. Moreover, his head is still in a position facing backwards which makes Kala's body goosebumps made.


"Mother! Mother why?" kala asked in fear with her already trembling body.


"Go! Take Aruna to the hospital now. Mother put him yes," said Bu Gayatri weakly before his life was completely snatched away by the angel of death.
