This morning I arrived at my class.
Susi and Thomas have not come yet, usually at this hour they have come. Where'd they.
Until the bell rang Susi and Thomas did not come.
At the first lesson, Master said that Felix died yesterday and his body was taken directly to his hometown. So that they also do not have time to worship.
The break bell rings. Eka and some of her classmates did not leave the class. Eka still feels tired.
Eka grabbed her phone which read that there was an incoming message from Susi and Thomas
"Eka, I'm not going to school today. My body hurts all like a beaten man and a lot of blue bruises. If you say the masseur's mother, I'm pinching the devil. It's so scary how the masseur's mother said I was pinned by a demon. Bizarrely. You went to school, right? Thomas said he didn't come in either. Thomas sent me a message. Has Thomas sent you a message as well?'
"Eka, I'm the same Susi didn't go to school. My mom said all night I slept screaming and when my mom went to the room she said my body was hot. So mom said I'd just rest at home. Mom put Moringa leaves on the bed. So it feels like a caterpillar. Heheheh."
Eka immediately replies to Susi and Thomas's message.
"Go back to school to your house."
Eka feels Susi and Thomas were hit by a dead man. Eka will clean them up so Susi and Thomas don't look after them anymore.
"Non, sorry to wait so long ago nemenin grandma, buu Neni and mbak Asih go."
"No papa sir. Now take me to Susi's house and hold Thomas. Whose house you want to go to first. What matters is not to make it hard for you."
"Good non. Oh yes, this is no lunch for non Eka from grandma. Fear of non-Eka starving because I'm late pick up non."
"Yes sir, thank you. Have you eaten?"
"I am non. Last time grandma gave me 2 packs. 1 for non Eka, 1 more for me. Just waiting for grandma to finish, I ate."
"Ok sir. I eat yes."
"Yes non Eka, please."
Along the way to Susi or Thomas' house, Eka ate a meal that was given by grandmother.
Eka's phone reads from dad.
"Assalamu'alaikum Eka's. Have you been picked up?"
"Wa'alaikumsalam. It's been. But Eka's permission to Susi's house and Thomas' father. They are not going to school today. I want to clean them up so they don't look at it anymore. Poor them."
"Yes. Careful. When you're done, just go home. No need to pick up dad. I still have meetings until night."
"Yes dad."
"Yes yes already. Careful. Assalamu'alaikum."
"Wa'alaikumsalam father."
Not long after she had reached Thomas' house
"Assalamu'alaikum."
"Wa'alaikumsalam's chat. Eka. What's up here?"
"Eka look at Thomas, ma'am. Because today Thomas's not in."
"Yes, Thomas has a fever. Oh my goodness, I forgot. Come on in, please sit down. What do you want to drink?"
"Not bother Mom. So how was Thomas, ma'am?"
"The night he was agigau, screaming. No, don't. I don't want to come. Release me. I don't want to be a victim. That way. What happened yesterday? Because Thomas ngigau was just last night. As sick as she was, she never had anything at all and last night when mom walked into her room. The room is cold when it does not use a fan. But he's hot, that fever. Finally mom compresses let the heat down. Now his Thomas just went to bed 20 minutes ago. And he can't get up just fall asleep. He said he'd wake up hard with no energy."
"Oh that's mom. So gini ma'am. As yesterday I said. Yesterday we went home from school and on the phone with one of the teachers to come to his house because his mother died. Finally the three of us came to mourn. But there are events that do not make sense. Outside of people's minds. It turns out that not only his mother died but our teacher also died. Well when bathed his mother's body disappeared including the body of our teacher. We all panic, including those who come to visit. Looks like Thomas got a dead man. I will try to help clean up as taught by my kakung. Mom, just a minute."
Eka went out to meet the driver and asked the driver to find 4 seeds of coconut water. After that Eka went back into Thomas' house turns out Thomas' mother was not there. She sat back waiting for her mother Thomas.
"Eka, this is me making you some sweet tea. Drink it first."
"Yes mom, thank you. Mom, Eka want to ask if I have 1 lump of garlic? If there's any Eka asking."
"Some, I'll get it for a second."
"Yes mom. Thank you." Thank you."
While Thomas' mother went inside again. The driver came with 4 plastic-wrapped coconuts.
"Non, this is the coconut oil. You ask the seller to all be wrapped. 1 this bag of 1 coconut ijo. There's no knife or cleaver here to open the coconut oil."
"Yes not papa sir. Eka also forgot to ask wrapped one by one it turns out the father already had the initiative to wrap it. Thank you sir."
"Yes, not equally."
"Oh yes sir. That's 2 more packs for Susi later. So just take it. Then there's sweet tea. One for dad."
"From pondar mandir. You'll put it in his car."
Thomas' mother came with 1 lump of garlic.
"This is the garlic."
"Yes ma'am."
Suddenly a scream came from Thomas's room. His mother and Eka, the driver, ran into Thomas's room.
"Don't, don't take me. I just came yesterday. Mr. Felix is my teacher. Don't me. Please, please, please."
Thomas was screaming while his eyes were still closed.
Eka immediately approached Thomas and held Thomas' hand.
"Thomas, Thomas, get up, get up."
"Dam, heh. Eka, Eka, Eka. I'm afraid Eka. Mr. Felix keeps coming and taking me away. I don't want Eka."
"Yes calm down. Ma'am, could you please get me a basin with a glass."
"could. For a moment." Thomas' mother's face looked worried.
"Eka, I'm really scared. Mr. Felix is dead. He was tugging at me. Though I have prayed only I want to wake up and open my eyes can not. I'm afraid of Eka."
"Yes, yeah. Calm down. I'll help you. You didn't shower last night, did you just change your clothes?"
"Yes. How do you know. I was so cold that I went straight into the room and changed clothes and just washed my feet and went to sleep."
"Other times if you have finished mourning, until the house immediately take a change of clothes and keep bathing. You got this convict."
"Help me Eka, let me not be invited to continue with Mr. Felix."
Mother Thomas is coming.
"Eka, here's the glass and the basin."
"Yes mom, thank you. Sir, ask for help coconut water 2 packs bring it here huh."
"Yes, non."
"Here you drink coconut water if you continue to eat garlic 7 seeds yes. Then the coconut water in the basin to wash your face, wash your hands and wash your feet."
"Yes Eka."
Thomas drank his oil coconut water and then he ate 7 garlic seeds that had been peeled by Eka.
"I wash my face, hands and feet here or in the bathroom? Garlic is very spicy. This is me finishing the coconut water that is being washed."
Eka nodded her head.
"That's it. Wash your face first then wash your hands here after that wash your feet."
Thomas did what Eka asked his mother to help him.
"Mother, Thomas wants to go to the bathroom first. Just a minute, Eka."
Thomas got up from his bed and ran to the bathroom.
His mother was surprised to see Thomas able to get up and run when previously Thomas could not get up.
Not long after Thomas came back from the bathroom.
"Eka, thank you. My body is light, it can get up and walk. I couldn't get out of bed this morning."
"Thank you to God. I was just helping. It's all God's will, you can wake up again. Yes, that is it. Next time don't forget to treat the dead. I'm going to Susi's house."
"Yes Eka. I'm not going to Susi's house."
"Yes. That's the rest of the garlic I spread in your room don't take it for 7 days huh."
"Yes Eka."
"Mom, if so excuse me. Eka. Go to Susi's house. Susi's afraid of the same thing as Thomas."
"Yes Eka. But how can you help someone who has it. You can huh?"
"Eka tajarin same mbah kakung. If you have to shower, you should shower immediately. You know hehehe."
"Yes ma'am, Thomas. Assalamu'alaikum."
"Wa'alaikumsalam Eka's. Be careful."
