My wife Kuntilanak
Chapters 19. The Sister-in-law

It was eleven o'clock at night, but Tari was still awake. His heart was broken, as all his family were currently in hospital. She lives alone with her sister-in-law at home.

Since the strange incident this afternoon, Tari was more silent in her room under the pretext of being busy doing chores. He only comes out occasionally to take a drink in the kitchen and berberes house, his mandatory routine every day. Even at dinner, he admitted he was full.

Tonight, Tari diverts her vibe by watching Korean dramas through her HP. His fear slowly faded away at the hilarious story he was watching.

"Haha..."

The laughter of the main character makes Tari almost make her laugh. But Tari remembers it is already night.

"Haha..."

The laughter sounded again. But how does it sound different? It sounds more squeaky and very clear.

Dance hurriedly opened her headshet. Sure enough, Tari can still hear the sound of laughter, even though the scene in the drama has changed.

"Where are the voices from?" Dance rubbed her goosebumps. The voice was still heard, but it was getting more and more faint.

"I'm afraid, sir, Mom. When do you go home, "dance in the dark while hiding in the blanket.

He was not a cowardly child. Even the head of this scout group always escapes in night jurig activities. But since his meeting with Laksmi, everything has changed. Dance begins to often feel goosebumps without any obvious cause.

Syyuu...

The wind from outside gushed in through the window slit. Dance pulled a pillow bolsters into her arms. Still with a thumping chest, Tari closed her eyes fixedly, hoping to go to bed soon and meet the morning.

"Haha..."

Dance did not move anymore, when the laughing voice sounded very soft. It seemed like he was asleep, accompanied by a pale-faced creature that grinned widely behind his back.

...***...

Sreth! Sreth! Sreth!

Dari woke up hearing a noise from beside her room. His voice sounded clear, like someone who was sweeping or pulling something on dry leaves.

"What time is this?" he murmured softly, while grabbing HP from above the nightstand beside the bed.

It was three in the morning. Sontak pelu kuduk Tari. Who's sweeping the yard at three in the morning?

"Wait on! Don't you think it's a thief!"

Dance remembered avocado trees and their durian trees that were bearing fruit. Trying to think positively, he also waved the curtain and peeked out.

Gluey! Within seconds, Dari regretted her decision. A figure as tall as the roof of the house and wearing white clothes, seemed to be pacing under the trees. His long dangling hair, sweeping the dried leaves.

"What is that thing?" Dance hurriedly closed the curtains and hid behind the covers. His breath was hunting and his tears were dripping. All his life, he had only seen such a creature once.

Suddenly there was a hand touching Tari's shoulder from behind. The teenager screamed inwardly, as he tightened his blanket. His heart almost jumped out.

"Who is that?"

Dance did not dare to look. He still harbored a deep fear. Various negative thoughts pierced the nerves of his brain. Of course his mind leads to invisible creatures that often disturb humans.

"Dec? You why?"

This voice, Dance knew him well. At first he hesitated a little, but eventually the teenager resigned and prayed in his heart. "May there be nothing" he said.

"Dad?"

Dance opened her blanket slowly. "Mbak Laksmi? Fyuh, thank goodness. I guess who," said Tari breathing relieved. "Eh, wait. How come you can be here?"

"Bak was going to grab a drink in the kitchen. But look at your room lights on, and the door's a little open. You're not sick, are you?"

Laksmi scratched her palm on Tari's forehead. As usual, the hand felt as cold as a dead man.

"I'm okay, Ma'am. I accidentally woke up" Kilah Tari.

Dance also nodded obediently. However, a split second later his heart stopped for a moment. When the sister-in-law turned around, Tari saw leaves stuck to the ends of her hair and her nightgown.

"I-it's the leaves of the durian tree and avocado," cried Tari in the heart. His body was limp for a moment.

...***...

"Dec, let's eat. I bought me a megono of rice." Laksmi knocked on the door of the tightly closed Dance room. "Dec? Are you awake?"

Geck! Geck! Geck!

"Dad?" Laksmi began to worry, when she did not hear the answer from within. He turned the door knob and opened it. "Dance? You feverish?"

Laksmi felt her sister-in-law's body temperature was higher than usual. He ran out, a minute later, back in a basin filled with water, and a clean towel.

"Don't you tell me you have a fever?" laksmi said while compressing the head of the sister.

"Yes because I'm afraid of Sam Ma'am," Inner Dance. But the girl did not expect, the sister-in-law whom she feared would bother compressing her.

"You eat after this, yes. Ma'am there buy megono rice in the stall Mbak Aruna. If it is not strong, the school is off, then the permission will go to the teacher," said Laksmi.

"Loh, Tumben Mbak buy breakfast? If you want to cook let me help," said Tari weakly. His head felt very heavy with a clenched look.

"Where do you want to help Ma'am, if you can't get out of bed?" reply Laksmi a little nagging.

"Uh, yes, too" muttered Tari. He rested his body with both hands, and tried to sit on his bed.

"Some of you must be tired of eating eggs just as tofu tempeh continues, right? Sometimes buy a good breakfast too," continued Laksmi while squeezing a towel that already feels warm. "And I do not want my disguise in this house to be revealed quickly," continued Laksmi in his heart.

"There's no way kuntilanak could be this good, right? It must have been a coincidence that the leaves were stuck in Mbak Laksmi's hair. Ah, no. I must have seen it wrong last night" thought Dari.

"Assalamualaik."

Suddenly a voice came from the front of the house. Dance immediately jumped from the mattress, as if forgetting her who was feverish.

"Same father Mommy is healed? Oh, where's Mas Ndaru, Mom?" tanya Tari greeted the arrival of her parents.

"Your mother is still to be cared for, Nduk. Hopefully tomorrow we can go home" said Bu Kesha.

"Thank God, can I go to the hospital in the afternoon?" reply Dance.

"Yes can go, Nduk." This time, Mr. Darya answered.

"Dec, your Mas there are two. This one isn't being asked?" satya Protest.

"Well, I saw the trunk of his nose. No need to ask again," replied Dance while chuckling. But he still stuck out his hand for the salim on the eldest brother.

"So you have a fever because you miss Father Mother? To the extent that Father Mother had come home, you immediately recovered," said Laksmi who had just appeared in the living room.

"Well, you have a fever?" Ms. Kesha directly touched the dance. "Ah, yes. Your body is hot. Do you have nausea and vomiting too?"

"Nr ..." Dari did not want to tell, if he yesterday vomited all the contents of his stomach, after seeing Laksmi eating fish berbelatung.

"Not just 'umm'?" kesha Bu Urge.

"There's a little vomiting. But it's okay, Mom," explained Tari.

"Yes, it will be right to the hospital to visit your Mas, all for treatment," said Bu Kesha. Dance also nodded.

"Mother's father had breakfast? We're having breakfast together, yuk. I already bought me a megono rice earlier," asked Laksmi to switch the conversation.

"This time I've been very careful. They can't know what they're eating" Laksmi thought with a faint smile.
