Chapter 4 - Playing His Own Life


"Arum! open door!!" squealing Dance with all her might, at this time the fear had already taken hold of her, the strange sounds began to dance the more clear, the laughter and the roaring cries simultaneously.


Not only that, Tari even felt a black figure approaching her from behind, getting closer to the long hand as if grabbing her shoulder.


"Oruum!" Dance finally cried, she tightly closed both eyes with a hand that kept pounding on the door.


Until it finally opened and made him suddenly open his eyes too, his legs that had felt heavy were now so light he brought it to run into the room.


"Arum, where's Arum?" tanya Tari when she saw that there was no Arum in this room, even a woman who opened the door for her was someone else, not Arum. His eyes continued to look around every corner, as if he could not believe that Arum was not here.


"I kept banging on the door of this room, why so long ago?" tanya Dari again, with breath still panting.


While a woman who owned this room just stared at Dari in confusion. First about Arum and the second Tetang door of his room that was in strong gedor, because he did not hear the slightest sound of someone knocking on the door. He opened the door just because he wanted to throw garbage, because usually the garbage will be picked up by the waiter of this dormitory every dawn.


"Who are you?" ask the woman, a woman named Siska.


"I'm Tari, Arum's friend. Is not Arum in this room."


"Yes right, but a week ago Arum came home, he was sick with typhoid."


The deg! it also felt like the heart of Dance had stopped beating. His eyes were breaking as if they were about to escape.


Very clearly reminded him yesterday afternoon Arum welcomed him in front of the Dormitory. Arum's pale face was not so he noticed, Dari did not have time to ask why Arum was so pale.


But then Tari remembered, Arum who suddenly disappeared from his room by closing the door.


"A-pa you mean Arum came home, yesterday, yesterday he met me, you Siska right? he even introduced your name to me."


Siska was so confused, but it is true that Arum returned to his village 1 week ago, because of the typhoid pain experienced by his friend.


Dance was silent, between her lost consciousness.


between having to trust Siska or her own memories that can't go wrong.


No, it might not be Arum. Then who?


Dari shook her head repeatedly, choosing to still trust her own memories.


"Why did you open the door for so long? I was yelling for Arum's name."


"I didn't even hear any noise outside, I opened the door because I wanted to put this trash down." Siska held up the black plastic bag in her right hand.


An answer that makes Dance even more confused. Feeling played with his own life. He shouted so loudly, how could Siska not hear it?


"You didn't hear my screams?"


"No, are you the new resident of this Dormitory?" siska asked and Arum nodded.


"What room?"


"201."


Hearing that the room Siska immediately closed the open door of her room, she even stopped throwing garbage in her hands. Quickly he locked the door.


And Tari who saw the movement of Siska more and more confused, indeed what about room 201?
