PART-17 NO HOPE

Magdalena and Grace seemed realize when Saka suddenly disappeared. Even though they are busy, they clearly see Saka entering the room and watching them. Grace was the first to realize what had happened, without realizing that the bucket she was holding had fallen. BRAAAKKKK! Deep red water splattered in all directions, the bucket shattered, making a loud noise. Her legs buckled and she fell to the ground.

Magdalena, who was not yet fully aware of what was really going on, gasped when she saw her sister drooping. She was getting more and more confused, she didn't fully understand what happened to Saka, Grace had slumped in front of her. Magdalene threw herself in a panic at her sister. Her body was shaking. Meanwhile, Nina, who came with the doctor, was glued to the door watching all the chaos in front of her. When she come on her Nina and rushed to help Magdalena when she saw her mother struggling to support Grace. The doctor rushed to help. Grace was taken to her room and laid on the bed.

The doctor checked Grace's condition and tried to resuscitate her. Ten minutes later, Grace awoke. She sat down immediately. Grace looked awkward and confused, "Please save Wisanggeni, do not worry about me, I'm fine," said Grace, trying to lighten the mood. The doctor smiled crookedly. After making small talk, the doctor left Grace's room.

Inside Fareda's room, Magdalene and Nina are cleaning up the remnants of the mess. When the doctor came, Magdalene brought a bucket filled with water used to clean the floor. The doctor briefly glanced at the water in the bucket, blood red and thick. There was horror in the doctor's eyes. If he had not been a personal doctor a long time ago in this family, he might have gone straight away. He looked nervous when he passed Magdalene and saw the contents of the bucket. Especially when you glance at Fareda's mattress, which has not yet had a bed sheet installed. For some reason, everything he witnessed made his mood uncomfortable. "I do come often to take care of this family but never this mess."

Slowly, the doctor walked to the bed where Wisanggeni was laid. His steps hesitated, “I don't know why my feelings are getting worse, I feel the atmosphere is very confusing, as if there are thousands of eyes watching. Whereas in this room there are only me, Nina and Wisanggeni, who are lying like a living corpse. I also felt that I was being threatened.” He quickly finished his work. Haste checked Wisanggeni's condition and then installed the infusion that was forcefully released due to the chaos earlier. The next second gave Magdalene a prescription and promised to come tomorrow. After that, the doctor immediately said goodbye without explaining anything to Magdalene about Wisanggeni's condition.

Magdalene was stunned by the rigid attitude of her personal doctor. He was glued to the door, holding the prescription the doctor had given him. "What's with him? Doesn't he usually act weird? Looks like the doctor is scared?” Magdalene's chest filled with questions. She quickly brushed it off. She just wants to prioritize what she has to do first because the only person who has to stay strong in this house for now is her. Her husband lay covered in blood in front of her eyes. Then Saka suddenly disappeared, after which her younger sister collapsed. The only ones who are still awake and able to control themselves are only her and Nina. Magdalene needed an explanation for all this mess, but who had to ask for an explanation? The only person she hopes can explain is her husband. While her husband lay like a living corpse.

While thinking, she walked towards Saka's room. Wanting to make sure that Saka was there, she hoped that what she saw earlier was just a hallucination. "Maybe he was sleeping in his room," she said to herself. The look of disappointment was clearly evident when she entered Saka's room. The room was empty. Saka is not there. Even the bed is very neat. Her chest felt tight, she wanted to cry, but the tears couldn't come out. She sat for a long time in Saka's room. "Could Saka penetrate the secret of time and go with his body to another dimension?" she said in her heart. “But he never did that? He always leaves his body when he wants to go to another dimension. I have to make sure.” Magdalene immediately straightened her clothes and lay down on Saka's bed. She folded her arms as if getting ready for bed, then closed her eyes. He wanted to follow Saka.

“NO MAGDA! YOU CAN'T LOOK FOR IT!” Grace's voice stopped her. Magdalene opened her eyes again. Her sister was already standing in front of the door with a frightened face. The next second, Grace rushed over.

"I'll go look for him, you have to take care of Wisanggeni and Nina!" Grace ordered.

"Nina why?!" asked Magdalene, confused.

"Don't you see, she is sitting on the edge of Wisanggeni's bed with a dazed look?"

"WHAT?!"

"You have to wake her up or you'll lose her too." Magdalene got up as soon as Grace finished her sentence. Grace trailed behind her.

Magdalene entered Fareda's room. She saw Nina sitting cross-legged holding Wisanggeni's hand. The girl's face was dazed. Magdalene came over and said, “honey, I promise you everything will be fine. Isn't papa like this often and papa always comes back?" Nina still looks dazed. Magdalene gripped her daughter's hand tightly. Staring at her, she gently kissed her daughter's forehead. Magdalene knew very well what Nina was thinking. Magdalene gently let go of her hand and hurried into the study room. He returned with the Holy Qur'an, which he gave to Nina. "Maybe, mama is not as good as papa at comforting you, but mama always pays attention to the way your papa calms you whenever you are down." Magdalene handed the Holy Qur'an in her hands and then kissed her daughter's forehead once more.

What will happen to Saka? And how about Nina? Will she come to her consciousness again? Or will she suffer the same fate as her brother? Or maybe she will go crazy because she is not able to accept the reality of what happened to her father?
