Accompany Me to Die
Memories of the Past

Nayla stood staring outside the room, her tears melting when she heard the mother and child talking. He misses Nuraini, if his mother is still alive he also wants to embrace her at this time. The sense of loss has not disappeared completely. Nayla took a deep breath, rubbed her cheek from the trail of tears and knocked on the door.

"Can Nay come in?" he asked with a smile.

"Eeh mbak Nay, here. Not having breakfast yet?" Mbok Dar.

"Udah kok mbok, seem to have eaten already huh? Hope you recover soon."

"Yes mbak Nay, now much better." Mbok Dar put down his porridge bowl and asked, "What's wrong?"

"No, just the boss at home. Today is off but want to take a walk." Nayla turned towards Tegar and asked, "You have no time?"

"I? Anybody, where are you going?"

"River, I heard from the residents there is a river that has a waterfall in the forest there. Can't anterin?"

Hardcore and mbok Dar look at each other in disbelief at Nayla's request. 

"Waterfall?" Steady assuring Nayla's request.

Nayla nodded, "Yes, I need some fresh air."

He looked back at Mbok Dar. Both of them were read by Nayla. They are strange when they say the word river.

"Hhm, can you?" Nayla was half begging.

"Ehm, yes it can." replied Hardly hesitatingly.

"Asik, okay I'll get ready first huh?!" Nayla passes leaving Tegar and Mbok Dar.

Stiffly confused, there was a fear of returning to the river. He also remembers last night.

'I hope there is no trace left there. Why am I so nervous?'

"Le?" Mbok Dar turned his wheelchair, he approached Tegar, "You why?"

"It's okay mbok, just a little dizzy." Hardcore nervous.

Mbok Dar grabs a Hardcore hand, he smiles soothingly. "Take Nayla for a walk, get her from yesterday take care of the death of the citizens continues. He needs refreshing."

Tegar nodded, he left mbok Dar. The middle-aged woman stared at her son's back and disappeared. His hands were squeezing each other, he bit his lower lip.

'Duh Gusti, please forgive your son. Protect him and keep me strong.'

Her tears were again hatching, her memory fixed on the river within the forest. The cursed place that started all the bad things that happened to mbok Dar and Tegar. 

That's where Tegar and ndoro putri do forbidden relationships like husband and wife. Ndoro princess who began to lose her mind due to being used for Joko shaman mas always considered Tegar as the figure of Mbah Anto, the man who stole her heart.

 Initially Tegar tried not to heed it, he considered ndoro princess was experiencing delusions due to physical torture given Wak Dadan. But over time ndoro putri began to craze by calling it a friendly call. It makes the stingy uncomfortable. 

Ndoro's daughter continued to seduce Tegar and it happened if they were alone. Rigid tried to hold on as hard as he could but he was also a normal man. Until one day on the banks of a silent river, the defense of Tegar collapsed. He could no longer withstand the turmoil of his maleness when ndoro putri deliberately and wildly sip the lips of Tegar.

Mbok Dar rubbed his tears again, his lips quivering in prayer. "Destiny has made fun of my son's life, O God Gusti, forgive my son. Forgive me for this great sin." 

...----------------...

Nayla looks to enjoy her journey with Tegar. With a piggyback of motorcycles belonging to Tegar they went through the village road to the river that is meant Nayla. Along the way Nayla hummed and enjoyed the fresh air that still felt cold even though the sun began to rise.

"You're so happy, Nay, happy again?" tanya Rigid while looking in the rearview mirror looked at the face of the young doctor who continued to develop a smile.

"No, twilight is finally free from the annoying thing all week." he said back with a face of sigh.

Nayla smiled sweetly, she tightened her body at the exotic young man who was riding a motorcycle. Nayla closed her eyes, leaned her head against the back of Tegar and for a moment, enjoyed the sound of nature and the sunlight that hit her face.  The heartbeat of the Rigid sounds constant sedating Nayla. Sounds beautiful and soothing.

Go ... or, die!

A subtle whisper rang out in Nayla's ear, so subtle and creepy. Nayla didn't notice. It still closed its eyes.

Go ... or, die!

The seraut of the face just suddenly shot out, breaking through the dimensional boundary. A pale face with widened eyes while shouting, "Go!"

Nayla was surprised, as soon as she opened her eyes. The voice and face felt real to him. Woman with a look full of anger. Nayla looked to the right and left of the street. He was in the quiet Pine forest, only Tegar and Nayla were crossing the deserted road.

Nayla's heart was suddenly pounding incoherently, something invisible was watching her. He could feel the presence of that figure. Nayla tightened her grip, fear instantly trapping her.

"Why Nay?"

"No, it's still a long time?" he asked anxiously, his eyes still circling around.

"So soon that's heard the sound of the water?"

Nayla was silent no more humming from her thin lips. What Nayla was worried about happened. A few meters before Tegar stopped the motorbike, just to the left of the road a beautiful yellow woman appeared.

"Hey Jasmine?" mumbled wailing.

Nyai Melati continued to stand in her place expressionlessly, her face pale despite still looking beautiful. He stared hard without blinking. Even when Tegar stopped his bike, Nyai remained there. He kept watching the stark.

Nayla was astonished by this, she looked at Nyai Melati and also Tegar alternately.

'That's a pitiful and creepy look.'

Nayla was overwhelmed with curiosity, Nyai Melati just kept staring at Rigid and followed him. Not a single moment did Nyai look at him.

"Well, he said he wanted to see the river?"

Rigid pulled Nayla's hand leading her to the rocky ledge. Tegar deliberately looking for a place far from his place last night dumped the body of Mr. Agus. He takes Nayla to Nyai Melati's favorite place.

"How good is it?" he said, stretching out his hands.

The figure of Nyai Melati still appeared, standing glued to one place. 'What do you want to tell me Nyai?'

"Nay, why are you so dumb?" Hardcore approaching.

The young man looked at Nayla, staring at the large rocks gathered near a tree. A flash of the past comes to the surface.

Nayla again penetrates the boundaries of space and time along with the emergence of a Hardcore memory.

Nyai Melati who is now disappearing appears in a flash of Tegar's past. His father's face wailed on Tegar, he cried even begged Hardcore but Hardcore did not care. The young man pushed his body hard until his head hit one of the big rocks there.

Rigid with the heart to leave Sang Nyai covered in blood. Although the woman called his name but Tegar did not turn around, the young man was overwhelmed with emotions. He kept walking and disappeared. Nyai Melati shed tears, her hands raised as if wanting to stop Hardcore.

'Wait, don't go!'

Nayla was still staring at the next terrible scene, she could not believe what she saw next.

"Oh my God, don't .. don't do that!"

Nayla screamed with horror, she really did not expect if the person who was seen in her recognition was the same person who loved her son only.
