My boyfriend's a Vampire
Episode 71: Second Chance
Days after the rue. Alisha tries to assume that she has never experienced anything bad with Akasha. But his memory refused to forget. Alisha is always pursued by worry. Every night he wakes up with sweat soaking up his body due to a nightmare. After that, he will be awake until morning. The dream was triggered by her fear and guilt towards Maya. At first glance, Alisha, the girl never intended to harm anyone else.
Alisha forgets how the meeting with Akasha happened. He only remembered a doll he bought from Egypt a few years ago, similar to Cleopatra but he did not know what her name was.
“Oh my God! I deserve a bad dream. Eyang uti forgot to tell Ki Danu Langgeng to burn the statue!”
Alisha patted her own eel and ran towards the elevator door.
“Duuk….Duoks….Duuk..”
The sound of sleeping sandals that collided with the marble floor of his house in the early hours of the morning, was clearly heard in my ears. The woman opened the door and ran after Alisha.
“Ngapain clock as soon as running?”ask mom with a high voice.
Mama chased Alisha to the elevator door. He saw the princess with a face soaked in sweat.
“Nightmare again?”
“Maybe because we forgot to burn the doll we bought from Egypt first,Ma.”
“You're superstitious. Just this doll,” said mama with a face still sleepy.
“Ma... Believe me not anyway? That evil spirit can inhabit certain things.”
“Then we burn tomorrow, Lis.Home school.”
“But we have to find the doll right now,Ma.Alisha can't sleep for days.”
That same day, around 2 pm in the morning, Alisha assisted the mother to find the Akasha doll that was usually placed in the living room.
“The phone does not exist,Ma. It is usually placed here.”
As soon as Alisha felt her hair goosebumps, her palms began to sweat.
“Maybe someone moved. Don't think negatively first. Yuk sleep again!”
“Several days,Alisha is hard to sleep again,Ma.”
“Yuk sleeps in the room mama aja.Gimana?”
“Alisha is big,Ma. Shame time is still being roiled?”
The girl returned to her room, and pulled back her blanket. His heart felt unsettled, as if there was something under his bed. Alisha squatted down and pulled a drawer under her sleeping mat that was used to keep her reading books as a child.
“Sreek..”
The drawer was opened, there was only a pile of readings that he bought as a child first. She recalled sweet memories at bedtime, her baby sitter always recited a fairy tale before going to bed before collapsing on a small bed next to her.
“Ahhhhh….Mamma….Please!”alisha shouted as she saw something behind the pile of books.
Mama moved closer to her daughter who was sitting with a pale face.
On the girl's forehead with the back of her hand, she breathed a sigh of relief.
“Alisha has no fever,Ma. But because of the doll,”sahut Alisha while pointing at something under a pile of books.
“Mama thinks you have a fever. So raved,” said mom while taking something under the pile of books.
“This is the doll we bought from Egypt. Nothing is strange. Maybe you forgot to move it from the bottom.”
“Absolutely never toys the doll again,Ma. Let's burn it now!”
Mama shook her head,”Wait for sunrise first. Now we sleep again.”
Alisha shook her head. The girl looked more pale and her body became thinner due to lack of sleep for days.
“Let mama keep this doll,Lis.”
Alisha hands Akasha's doll to the mother who takes her back to her room. Alisha tries to calm down and sleep again.
At school, Affandra returns to notice Alisha, her former lover. The girl had looked glum the last few days. There is something strange with her, Affandra ventured to approach Alisha when the first break arrived.
“Can I talk to you?”
Alisha nodded her head, her two best friends moved a little further away. The boy now sits in front of Alisha at a desk in the school cafeteria.
“You said what?”alisha asked with a flat face almost expressionless.
“Lu no more problems?”
“Gue not sure if you have a problem. For sure the last few days I often had nightmares.”
“What dream?”
“Entahlah. Since I was born. Looks like something is missing. Dolls not yet burned.”
“Means you?”
“Gue buys dolls from Egypt that are said to be entered by evil spirits. Akasha, vampire from Egypt.”
“Lu still believe so, Lis? Worship you strengthen. Without being burned, evil spirits will also escape.”
Alisha contemplates the words Affandra,”True too. I hardly a year rarely worship.”
“Later home from school.Gue stopped by the house to help burn the doll. And..don't forget to pray five times!”
Alisha nodded her head, and realized her mistake all along. The root of all evil is centered on weak faith.
Meanwhile, Ryan and Maya's relationship is safe. Two teenagers with different characters, able to complement each other.
“Alisha. Hopefully he really is a good boy who no longer likes to ngebully.”
“Thank God then. But he looks different. Become paler. Sure it's improving?”
Ryan observed Alisha from a distance, the girl indeed looked quiet and moody. His face was pale and his body thin.
“Later home from school I asked.”
“Aren't you asking now?”
Ryan shook his head,”And there's Affandra. Looks like she's getting her hands on some more girls.”
Maya laughed and covered her mouth with her palm.
The afternoon sky after school, very bright no clouds, the air blowing lightly usher two pairs of young to re-knit romance. Alisha gives Affandra a second chance, and she opens her heart to Alisha. Ryan and Maya are happy to see their happiness.
“Gue can follow to your home?”ryan asked when he saw Alisha in the car with Affandra.
“Bby. We're gonna burn a doll.”
“Gue can take Maya?”
Alisha nodded her head. Be Ryan's car following Alisha's car in the back. They walk at medium speed. Maya spreads a look out the window. That day felt different, the world became more beautiful with peace and compassion everywhere.
“Gue burn now?”ask Affandra with Alisha, Ryan, and Maya.
“Wait! Looks like there's still something left behind. There's a mini doll that's exactly the same as this.”
“You mean. This isn't?”affandra asked as she reached into something from her pants pocket.
“Kok you can get it from where?”
“So morning you accidentally picked up something and the little doll fell off. I'm taking it because I have a weird feeling about this doll.”
“Kok you can know?”
“Lis...Gue was once also tempted by evil spirits in the school corridor. The location is exactly the same as lu.” locker
“So..You're more sure this doll is the cause?”ask Alisha.
Affandra nodded her head as she pulled out a match and burned the two dolls.
“Joss...”.
The fire ignited two dolls that had previously been doused with a little kerosene and placed on the ground in the backyard of Alisha's house.
“Please,Lis..Lu grab the fire department. The fire spread through my hand,” shouted Affandra.
The mood turned tense. Strange things happen, Affandra licked into a fire that burned her to the arm. The man rolled his body on the ground until his uniform became dirty with dust. Alisha ran with the fire department and sprayed it onto Affandra's body. While Ryan with a very nimble movement dipped tarpaulin cloth that has been moistened with water and closed it to the fire that devoured part of the end of the arm of Affandra's uniform. Maya was terrified, the girl covered her face with her palm while crying. The girl did not expect that such a strange event would occur.
“Affandra safe. Only minor injuries. Let's take it to the ER,” Ryan.
The guy was grimacing in pain. Two Egyptian dolls have now been turned to ashes.
Akasha's spirit has now gone for good.
