Grandfather's Heritage House

Adam looked at the old house one floor in front of him. In the past, this house looks very magnificent when compared to other houses. However, now this house is not much different from the haunted house, abandoned.

The grass in the front yard of this house was already very tall, reaching the shoulders of adults. Moss is also seen on the outside walls of the house. Not only that, Adam also saw holes in some windows. Adam even believes this house has a leak here and there.

In conclusion, this abandoned house is very unfit for habitation. If it will be occupied, many parts of the house that need to be repaired. It obviously costs a lot.

“So this is your new home?” airani asked who was next to Adam.

Airani had been friends with Adam since they were in elementary school. They were in the same school and class. This makes the relationship between the two very close. Some people say that the two are dating now.

“Yes. I will stay here after this,” Adam replied.

”Are you sure, Dam? This place is quite far from the city. You'll find it hard to get a job if you live in a suburb like this. To get to the city, you need to take two hours. There will be quite a lot of time you waste if you stay here,” explained Airani.

“But Rani, can't do much in town. There are a lot of jobs in the city. His salary is bigger than here, but I won't be free. A quarter of our city is now controlled by Om and Tanteku. They won't let me work quietly,” explained Adam.

“It is very true that I received the inheritance of this house from Grandpa. I will no longer be disturbed by them. I'm here to farm, meet the needs of my life. Besides, I can still find work done online. That is very possible in modern times like this. It's not the end of everything, Rani,” Adam.

“Om and Tantemu are very evil. They've stolen the property of an orphan like you. Though you are their nephew, but they have absolutely no sense of pity,” said Airani who could not cover her frustration.

Adam was an orphan since he was ten years old. Adam was raised by one of his uncles. Every month, Adam's grandfather gave some money for Adam's daily needs. However, all the money was taken over by Marcel, his uncle, without telling a single thing for Adam.

Not only that, Adam is also often asked to do homework even though Marcel already has a household assistant. Even worse, sometimes Marcel would beat Adam if his mood was bad.

When Adam High School, Adam took the initiative to stay alone. He no longer wanted to get torture from the Marcel family. However, Marcel did not let go of Adam. Adam's monthly money was still taken by Marcel. Adam only had money to eat for two weeks. The rest, he needed to work part-time to get on with life.

If Adam's grandfather had not been too busy and had watched Adam grow closer, none of this would have happened. Unfortunately, Adam's grandfather only found out about this when he was on the edge of death.

For this reason, Adam did not receive a great inheritance from his grandfather. When the others get company shares, extensive plantation land, other assets whose value is fantastic, Adam only gets this old house that almost collapsed.

Adam remembered his grandfather's last message when he handed the house to him. This house is very old and has no high selling value. With this not-so-valued inheritance, no one would seize this inheritance.

Not only that, Adam's grandfather also advised even though this house does not look to have value, and is very low when compared to the legacy of his other grandfather, he said, the house that Adam received was a diamond that had not been honed.

Adam himself did not understand his grandfather's words. What makes this house considered an unsalted diamond? Is it because this house used to look so good? So, if Adam fixed it right, this house would be so beautiful? What does that mean, Grandpa?

Adam himself did not care much about it either. For Adam, he doesn't like to get into trouble. If his grandfather decided to give him only this house, then Adam would receive it well. This is precisely Adam likes because the environment of this house is arguably very quiet.

“They will definitely get a reply someday. But for now I don't want to think about them. I need to fix this house to be livable,” said Adam.

“You're taking it all too well, Dam. It's as if you need to fight for your rights. You should have gotten more than this. Your grandfather is not fair enough to give you a reot house while your other cousins get a luxurious house and apartment,” said Airani.

“Already, Rani. Don't talk about the person who died. Not well. I know this is very unfair. But I can't do much. I don't have as much power as my uncles and aunts. So, I can only accept all of this,” replied Adam.

At first glance Adam seemed to accept all of this and had no intention of defending himself. But all of that is wrong. In the depths of his heart, Adam was eager to avenge all the heartache he felt. He wants everyone who has hurt him, especially the Marcel family, to get the right payback for what he has done.

Unfortunately, until now there was not much Adam could do. He is just a child who does not have the position and strength to be able to avenge all the pain of his heart. In his heart Adam promised himself that if one day he had the chance, Adam would avenge all the pain he had received over the past nine years.

“Now, help me clean up these grasses. There is still a lot of work that we need to do after this,” said Adam, closing the discussion about the legacy he received. He did not want to keep talking about this with Airani.

With the help of Airani, Adam began to clean the house. Starting from mowing down the grass in the yard, pulling all the tendrils that look creeping on the walls of the house. All of this they both did.

Fortunately, Adam had already brought equipment to clean this up. With the lawn mower he hired, the job that took him a long time could be completed quickly. By late afternoon, Adam and Airani had finished cleaning the area outside the house.

The sky in this new house looks much more beautiful than the sky in the city. Maybe because this house is near the forest mountains, so there is not much pollution.

“Eh, you're not coming back to town?” ask Airani.

Adam shook his head slowly. “Ngak. I want to get the inside of this house done as soon as possible. I don't want to stay too long. It's the end of the month. If possible, before changing months, I want to stay here,” explained Adam.

Adam doesn't want to pay for next month. He needs to save more because now he has many other needs that he needs to meet.

“In that case, I'll just come here. I happen to be on holiday tomorrow. It doesn't matter if I stay here, does it?”

“Ngak. Cannot. You're a girl, there's no way I'm gonna let you sleep in a place this dirty. Then, if you nginep here, it will even nimbulin gossip that is not necessary. I don't want to let your image smear because of this. I myself can clean this place,” explained Adam.

“Alright, alright. I'm going home. I won't be here. But you do not be too maxing yourself to clean everything directly. You need to be nyicil a little so as not to be too tired,” said Airani.

“Sure. I know that, Rani.”

…

After Airani died, Adam resumed his cleaning event. This time he did not intend to clean everything directly, just as Airani suggested. Adam intended to clean one room first, for the place to sleep.

However, when Adam noticed all the rooms, there was no room suitable for him to make as a room. Starting from broken windows, ceilings and tiled that fall so that it shows the sky.

With all that, Adam could not use the room as a bed. This house that is close to the forest can obviously be entered by wild animals. Adam wanted the room he was going to sleep in, quite closed.

“Eh, what is this?” adam asked himself when he found out something strange under the bed in the main room.

Adam could feel the cold air from under the bed as he cleaned the room. In fact, there is no wind blowing. Even if there was wind, Adam should have felt it from behind his body facing the window.

Without thinking, Adam immediately put away the bed in the main room. Under the bed, Adam could see a carpet covering something uneven. Adam pulled the carpet.

“Eh, secret door? Why is there a secret door here?”

Under the carpet, Adam found a door leading down. Adam himself did not expect his grandfather to hide a secret room under the bed. Is this a bunker to take shelter in the war?

His curiosity was big enough to make Adam decide to see firsthand what was in the secret room. With the light of his cell phone, Adam went down the stairs behind the door.

The stairs are made of natural stone which is arranged into a circular staircase. Adam had no idea how deep this secret chamber was. He felt that he had walked for a long time, but this ladder did not reach the end.

“What kind of room is this? Why not look at the end of it. Will this ladder lead me into the bowels of the earth?” murmured Adam.

Adam was almost thinking of going back upstairs and no longer going on this little expedition. The man realized the more he went down, the less oxygen level there was. Adam did not want to suddenly fall unconscious due to lack of oxygen.

But Adam saw the end of this long ladder. Adam thought there would be a room at the end of the stairs. It turns out that man was wrong. Right near the end of the stairs was a very large door. The door is made of gold-plated metal. Adam could see the carvings on the door.

“Ternyta there's a door down here. Is there another room behind this door? But how do I open this door? There are no door handles or key holes. How to open it?”

Adam tried to open the door with his mouth. The man could see a straight line in the middle of these two large doors. However, no matter how hard he tried to push through it, the door did not move at all.

“So, how do I open this door?” ask Adam to himself.
