The Three Chosen

Faiq drove his car home quickly. Hanako seems to be getting weaker. Fatur who had arrived first at Erik's residence immediately told Farah about Hanako's condition.
“ Now where is Cici..?” ask Farah.
“ On the road Kak, soon also until...,” said Fatur while stepping into the room to perform Maghrib prayer.
“ Cici why Opa..?” ask Izar worriedly.
“ Length of the story Son. Well, that's them coming. Please help your father carry Cici yes.” Fatur said.
“ Ready Opa....,” sahut Izar while rushing out to welcome his father's arrival.
Izar swiftly helped Hanako down from the car and carried her and carried her into the house. Shera who saw Izar holding Hanako was shocked.
“ Why Cici Nak..?” ask Shera.
“ Ga tau Bun. Ask Dad later..,” Izar said while putting Hanako's body on the bed.
Shera looked at the husband who was stepping behind Izar. But before the question came out of Shera's mouth, Faiq cut quickly.
“ Later Dad explained, now Dad prayed Maghrib first yes Bun..,” said Faiq while rushing into the room.
Hearing her husband's words made Shera smile. Shera then goes into the room where Hanako is being treated by Farah.
“ Try Oma see the wound..,” said Farah.
Hanako grimaced as Farah's hand touched her face. Farah seemed to frown because she saw Hanako's facial skin peeling and inflamed to a reddish color.
“ The wound on his face is pretty bad. It looks like a minor burn, did Cici come into contact with the fire.?” ask Farah.
“ Yes Kak..,” sahut Fast Fatur.
“ Astaghfirullah.., how can Om. How did Ma go, did his wound heal..?” shera asked worriedly.
“ God willing can, it only takes a long time. Because his skin is flaking and inflamed. Must be sore and hot huh Son.?” ask Farah.
“ Yes Oma...,” Hanako said grimacingly.
“ What wound can not be hit by water Oma..?” ask Izar.
“ Can, especially if hit by ablution water. Well, it hurts but Cici must be strong. Later Oma asked Oma's friend who is a dermatologist to help cure Cici..,” said Farah with a smile.
“ Alhamdulillah..,” says everyone at the same time.
“ What won't leave the former Ma...?” shera asked curiously.
“ God willing there will be no traces. Now the treatment is getting more sophisticated Sher. So you do not need to worry if the skin of Cici will be striped or become damaged.” said Farah calms Shera.
“ Thank you. Kasian Cici if his skin is broken..,” said Shera while smiling with relief.
“ But by the way what happened until the skin of Cici redness like this.?” asked Erik who had just been quietly watching beside the bed.
Then Faiq told them what they were going through that day. Everyone listens seriously and speaks at the end of the story. Suddenly Heru and Eliya barged into the room to the surprise of everyone.
“ How is my Son..?!” efliya asked as she broke up the crowd and hugged Hanako.
“ Aww...,” ringis Hanako in the arms of the mother.
“ Calm down first Bun, rich brother in pain deh You hug fast so..,” said Heru reminded.
“ Cici gapapa kok Nak. After your hug, Cici was in pain..,” said Farah.
Efliya obeyed the mother and immediately broke her embrace. But Efliya was surprised to see Hanako's red face inflamed with flaking skin. Moreover, the wound was also found around Hanako's hand.
“ Aww Mother, slow down dong. It hurts a lot, it hurts..,” whining Hanako.
“ Maafin Mommy ya Darling. How to continue Ma. What is Cici gapapa..?” efliya asked frantically as she looked at the mother.
“ Insya Allah gapapa Son. Mama will call Mama's friend who is the dermatologist later. Now let Cici rest first yes..,” said Farah.
“ Mama's right, let Cici rest first. We should pray Isya congregate to the mosque yuk, tuh already adzan Isya..,” invite Erik.
Fatur, Faiq, Heru and Izar nodded then walked out of the room and hurried to follow Erik who had already left the house with Haikal.
Meanwhile Efliya, Shera and Farah were still chatting for a while in the room while waiting for Hanako to clean up and change clothes in the bathroom.
“ How Son, peri ya..?” ask Farah.
“ Gapapa Oma, just a little thing kok..,” Hanako said while grimacing.
“ Oma know if it must be very painful. But you are the great Grandson of Oma because it can withstand the same pain.” said Farah proudly.
“ Thanks Oma...,” says Hanako is happy.
“ Yes already so We pray together aja Ma. You are holy yet Brother..?” efliya asked Hanako.
“ Not Bun yet. Insha Allah the day after can pray.” said Hanako who is called Efliya.
After Farah, Shera and Efliya rushed to perform Isya prayers in the middle room. They accidentally left Hanako alone in the room because Hanako needed a break.

Meanwhile Suraj is on his way to the apartment building where he lives. From a distance Suraj heard fire engine sirens wailing as if he wanted to arrive at the scene of the fire. Suraj pulled over to give way to a passing fire engine. After three fire engines
fire passes, Suraj returns to drive his car.
But how surprised Suraj when he saw the fire engine car that leads to the apartment building complex where he lives. Suraj is glued behind the wheel when he sees the burning apartment on the fourteenth floor where he lives.
“ Sorry Sir, don't go there just yet.!” said a security man who recognized Suraj.
“ But it is my apartment Sir..,” said Suraj gusar.
“ Yes Sir, but I don't need to go upstairs sir. The fire is huge...,” pinta the security.
“ How can I fire Sir..?” suraj asked while looking at his room.
“ I also do not know Sir. But the source of the fire was on the fourteenth floor. The tight electrical short circuit, so PLN immediately cut off the flow of electricity in this region Pak..,” said the security again.
Suraj just sits limp behind the wheel while looking at the apartment he occupied so far has been engulfed in the red hero. From where Suraj sat could see the silhouette of a large black creature half human and half bull standing in the middle of the flames while staring angrily at him from behind the window.
“ Oh, so this is you. Demon, go to hell. Bring it all there, I don't care..” murmured Suraj with a cynical smile.
It turns out that it was not only Suraj who saw the appearance of the creature so-called events. Some people who are Suraj's neighbors who tried to capture the fire event also had to see the appearance of the creature to cause a commotion.
“ There are still people there...!” said one man.
“ There was nobody there, the owner was in the car.
“ But...,” the man's greeting was interrupted when security reminded.
“ That is just a silhouette that can be created from the hot flames. Please do not make news that even aggravates the situation Mas. Kasian is the same victim of fire..” said security as it passed.
The man was silent because he realized that maybe what he saw was just an illusion. But as he sharpened his eyesight he saw the creature so-called events jumped out and went somewhere. The man held his breath hoping that someone else would comment when he saw what he saw earlier, but it seemed to be in vain. No one else saw what he saw except Suraj.
