SHADOW CHILD
Ana will start lying on her bed to sleep. Mama Ana walks into Ana's room to check on Ana's condition.
" Would Mama see here still hot in her body?" Ask Mama Ana.
" It's not Ma." Answer Ana.
" Yes, look at me for a minute." Mama Ana said as she placed her hand on Ana's forehead.
" Thank God it's not hot anymore. Tomorrow we can go to school." Said Mama Ana.
" Yee Alhamdulillah." Ana said with excitement.
" Well, you sleep first, uh but do you want to sleep in front of the TV?" Ask Mama Ana.
" Ga ah Ma, it's not kliwon night. God willing orange ga dateng." Answer Ana.
" Oh yeah, don't forget to pray before going to bed." Mama's orders while leaving her son's room.
" Yes Ma." Answer Ana.
After his mother left, he then said a prayer before going to bed. Tonight was not as usual, Ana did not feel frightened. Maybe because he had found the pattern of the terror. Ana quickly fell asleep.
...
Morning has arrived, the clock shows at 05:00 am. Ana still sleeps in her bed. Half asleep, he tried to open his eyes. He wants to see what time it is.
As he tried to look at the clock, he saw a figure staring at him. However, because he was still half asleep, Ana was not aware of it. Ana then went back to sleep.
Shortly after, Mama Ana enters Ana's room. It woke Ana.
" Na, wake up at dawn. The first one." Said Mama Ana shaking Ana's body to wake up immediately.
" Hey." Ana replied turning her body towards the wall.
" Eh, even back in the body. Come awake! " Shouted Mama Ana.
Hearing her Mom's scream, Ana wakes up from her sleep. He opened his eyes, and saw his mother sitting next to him.
" But Cepetan woke up, he said he wanted to go to school." Mama Ana's orders then stand up to go outside Ana's room.
" So Mama saw me sleeping? " Task Ana.
" huh? " Said Mama Ana confused.
Hearing her mother's reply, Ana felt something was strange. Although he was still half asleep, but he was very sure that anyone saw him sleeping. He got up and went to his mother to make sure again.
Ana comes to the kitchen where her mother is cooking for breakfast.
" Ma, really Mama didn't think I'd fit me to sleep?" Ana asked uneasily.
" What the hell is it, my mom answered ah earlier. No one wants you to sleep." Mama Ana replied a little upset.
" My mom, that's the answer." Ana said angrily while going to the bathroom to pick up ablution.
After He ablution, He immediately went to the mushola to perform the dawn prayer. Ana takes her mukena and wears it. When he was wearing mukena, he then prepared to pray. When he was just about to takbir, he saw the shadow of people passing in front of the mushola (In front of the mushola was Mama Ana's room, and the lights in her mother's room lit up. So that there is light entering the mushola, and when someone passes, the shadow is seen in the mushola).
The shadow looks like a child. Ana was surprised, how there could be children in her house, while at home there was only Ana, her mother, and Mba Arin. He checked out the prayer. He looked into his mother's room, there was no one. Then he went to Mba Arin's room, because the position of Mba Arin's room was in the south, and the shadow was like walking south. Ana sees Mba Arin who is asleep.
" Mba, did you go to the bathroom?" Ask Ana.
" Mba!" Shouted Ana.
" What the hell Na, noisy. I prayed daritadi pas baru adzan, the abis was sleeping again. It's not anywhere, it's been out loud!" Answer Mba Arin in a high tone.
Hearing Mba Arin's reply, he came out of Mba Arin's room. Ana thinks whether he just mis-seen, but if in recall the shadow is very clear body of a person. It looks small, but it may be because the person is walking fast. But who, because there was no one other than the three of them.
" Athaghfirullah." Said Ana terrified.
Ana returns to the mosque and tries to forget what she just saw. He shook his head to sign that he should not think about it when going to pray.
After the prayer, he rushed to his mother who was in the kitchen. Ana told him about the thing that had just happened to her before she prayed.
" Don't think about it, Mama said. Let it go, no bother." Mama tried to calm her son.
" Is that really Ma?" Ask Ana.
" Usah ah do not need to think, you are ready just your school supplies, so do not be nervous will fit to go to school." Mama Ana's orders.
" What the hell Ma Daritadi asked the answer so constantly." Ana said annoyed and passed away from the kitchen.
Ana headed to her room, and sat down in her study chair.
" There really is a yes." Ana Mumbled.
He looked behind him, and checked his entire room. Ana saw nothing, and she felt grateful. However, his heart was still pounding. He still felt like someone was watching him.
