I Go Home Mas...
14. The hallucinations?

The day before Maghrib, when Yanto finally went home to his mother again. After chatting with Vinda at home, Yanto finally overslept.

At his mother's house, his aunt was busy carrying some food that would later be served to entertain guests who attended the three-day study of Yanto's late wife.

Lukman, who helped his aunt carry food from the Bibik house next to them, seemed to pass Yanto who went back and forth, just sitting in a chair that was still on the porch of the house.

"Man, Kang Mas wants to talk."

Yanto said as Lukman passed him, though,

"Yes, later, it's still a hassle."

Sahut Lukman's.

Inside the house, Madam Ukha is busy wiping small plates for later where food is served.

"The gelasan mineral water remains one dose, less yes?"

Ask Mbak Ukha to his mother who is carrying a newly bathed baby dede.

"Buy again, rather than later less even bother."

Said Mother.

"Dead of these boiled beans, ten more minutes are also ripe."

Bibik.

"There you wait for the nut Man."

Said Mother.

"There's an uncle."

Sahut Lukman who just finished putting a medium-size tray containing fried bananas.

"Bik, ask for one yes."

Said Lukman anyway,

"Huuu, even."

Sister Ukha tore her youngest sister's arm grinning as she passed by.

"Mas Yanto wants to talk, he said,"

Lukman said as he passed, Mother Ukha and Mother and Bibik looked at Lukman who was heading for the front room, then next they looked at each other,

"Have you heard?"

Ask Bibik suddenly,

Mom quickly shook her head.

"Wis, ojo discussed."

Said Mother.

Sister Ukha sighed, he actually wanted to know what story Bibik would tell, but Mother instead cut the goose duck.

"Law... Ow..."

Suddenly, Tita's voice came from the back room, she was taking a bath this afternoon, and now she entered with only a towel wrapped around her wet little body.

"Have you finished the bath?"

Ma'am Ukha asked his nephew, looking Tita nodded.

"Yuk change clothes with Uwak first."

Mbak Ukha embraces Tita to go to the front room which is occupied by Tita for a while.

"Sir, said Mama, Tita was told to go home."

Tita suddenly spoke when following Mbak Ukha to the front room, Tita's words clearly immediately made the heart of Mbak Ukha felt like it wanted to be dislodged.

Mba Ukha's step was immediately stopped, like pressed the pause button.

Mbak Ukha turned to look at Tita, his nephew who now smiles at Mbak Ukha.

That smile...

"Act Tita..."

Madam Ukha surged in fear seeing Tita's smile which to her was very strange, a smile that was very similar to Mirna's smile.

Nah!

Tita never smiled like that.

Ukha's mother who jumped in shock was staring at Tita who was also shocked and so fretted, frown,

"What is Uwak? What's up Uwak?"

Tanya Tita was confused while trying to reach her Uwak, but Mbak Ukha rejected Tita's hand.

Simultaneously Yanto who saw Mbak Ukha rejecting Tita's hand with rough direct emotion.

Mother and Bibik also saw, and were astonished by the increasingly hysterical Mother Ukha,

"Go Mir, you're dead, please don't bother us... Don't bother us."

Said Mbak Ukha who looked really scared to choose to be in the corner.

"Tita,"

Yanto approached Tita, looking Tita staring at his Father.

"Pa, said Mama, we were told to go home."

Tita said as she approached Yanto.

Lukman passes Yanto to help Mbak Ukha stand.

"When did Mama say we were told to go home?"

Ask Yanto about his son.

"Yanto! Be aware!! You guys are nothing at all?! Mirna is no more."

The mother so scolded Yanto, it was clear Mirna died, Yanto instead responded to Tita his son who was hallucinating because he missed his mother too much.

But...

Tita reaches her Father,

"There was. Mama ada's. Mama's been shampooing Tita, Pa."

Said Tita.

"Ah can't be Tita, you're bathing alone."

Yanto's mother panicked because she heard all the strange Tita stories.

Bibik who knew his sister was so stressed with everything that happened finally took over the baby dede from the sling because the baby's dede so cried loudly.

"I'll just take it to my house."

Said Bibik who hurriedly left his brother's house which he thought was not right.

"We're sure it's Mama?"

Yanto asked, Tita nodded.

Mama's hands are cold, she says Mama's cold, lonely, pity Pa."

Lirih Tita's.

"I don't want to hear!"

Sister Ukha hastily closed both ears, she was really scared, Mother could not even say anything more because of shock, Mother sits limp on the carpet that is held for a lecture later tonight.

Lukman quickly brought drinking water for his mother.

"All right, let's just go home Ta,"

Yanto said while standing up.

"Yanto!"

Mom snapped while sitting.

His gaze was sharp towards Yanto, he really did not understand the thoughts of his son.

"It's not seven days, it'll be seven days."

Said Mother.

Yanto.

"No ma'am, I also feel it's true we shouldn't leave the house empty."

"But your baby's here!!"

Jerky Mom.

"She'll help you take care of me if you mind."

"What's? Yours?"

Mother was astonished.

"His kiosk in the market will be sold because of the transportation of gono gini treasure, he will soon be unemployed, if I object, Madam Ukha also has no love for Tita, she said, I better ask Winda for help."

Sister Ukha who heard the words of Yanto in front immediately spoke from the inner room.

"I don't love Tita! She was smiling like Mirna! I'm scared!!"

Kesal Mbak Ukha's.

"The reason what so, it's obvious Tita son of Mirna, the smile is similar of course because they are Mother and child."

Yanto is no less upset.

Lukman, who had returned to the front room and was giving drinking water to his mother, finally spoke to his brother.

"Mas, speak not too loudly, Ms. Ukha is an older sister."

Lukman.

"He was rude to my son."

"I'm just scared!!!"

Ukha's mother is back.

"Yes Yan, there is nothing wrong with Ukha, anyone would feel the same as Ukha, afraid to hear Tita talk like that. She was bathing alone in the back, obviously,"

Said Mother, who then drank water from the glass again.

"Tita bathed herself, but Mama came and said Tita should shampoo. Mama who shampooed Tita."

"Okay, it's been. It's just a Tita hallucination, Mama's dead, Tita, it's not Mama."

Said Mother,

"Mom."

Yanto seemed to object to his mother frankly so,

"Yanto, this is the fact, so as not to become a habit, the issue outside has been very evil, Tita lost talking like this, the more trusting people about Mirna become kuntilanak!!"

I felt like I was short of breath because I was upset.
