Chapter 31 - Skeleton face woman

"From the direction of the sub-district road I saw a woman walking alone. From behind she looked elegant and beautiful, her clothes were wearing a red kebaya, her subordinates were wearing brown cloth and her head was wearing a headscarf according to the color of the kebaya. I thought the woman was going to the market with on foot and I intend to help her to give her a ride"

Obviously uncle, he stopped talking occasionally smoked cigarettes and sipped his black coffee. In this story the uncle stops his truck on the side of the road, then gets down to approach the mysterious woman. A mysterious woman who walked very fast, until Uncle Bagio ran to chase her.

"Miss... Miss..." uncle shouted. He spoke with the same accent at the time of the incident. However, even though uncle called out to her, the mysterious woman still walked on. The woman was walking so fast, finally the uncle gave up and got back into his truck.

"That's fast," said Uncle, surprised.

Finally uncle continued his journey to the factory, while looking to see who knows who might meet again with the veiled woman in front there. Sure enough, after just a few minutes the truck was running, Uncle returned to meet the veiled woman. But strangely, the woman was not walking as fast as before. dhe stood silently with his back to the road.

Uncle still had his good intentions, but this time he was not as sure as he was the first time. There was doubt in his heart, uncle's truck stopped, and the woman didn't budge in the slightest. Before going down to meet her, the uncle was silent while observing the woman.

First of all uncle observe the back, make sure there is no hole in the woman's back. After feeling safe, the uncle looked back at the woman's feet, making sure that the veiled woman's feet were really on the ground.

"It seems safe, the woman's back is not hollow and her feet are also on the ground" mumbled uncle, then he went down to approach the woman earlier.

"Miss, where are you going at this time of night? If you want to go to the market, please come with my truck. It just happens to be in the same direction, it's very dangerous if you walk alone at this time of night," said the uncle offering his help.

After telling her her intention, the woman still remained silent, did not even answer uncle's invitation. At that moment he felt a chill run up the back of his neck, eager to get back in his truck but also sorry to leave her alone.

"All right, if you don't believe me, I'll take you to the motorcycle taxi base just ahead. A few weeks ago a crime occurred around here, aren't you worried about that?" said uncle again.

The woman began to show her reaction, she sounded sobbing. Making Uncle Bagio even more anxious.

"What happened miss? Why are you crying?" asked Uncle, now he thought that woman could have run away from her house because there was a problem. However, at the last question asked by Uncle, the woman no longer sobbed, instead it sounded like she was giggling.

Uncle was seen stroking his arm, it was clear that he was getting goosebumps at this time. He returned to sipping his coffee so that he would be more relaxed when he told the incident again.

"That woman giggled, when I heard her laughter my body immediately couldn't move. I couldn't even speak. My feet felt glued to the ground."

"Then what happened next uncle?" asked Widya getting tense and impatient to hear the next story.

"The woman slowly began to turn around to show her face, at that moment I immediately gasped and felt short of breath. She turned to look at me with eyes without lids. Her face was a skull with neatly aligned teeth without skin. She glared at me with a very shrill laugh. The woman was a ghost with a face skull, it's only a few inches right in front of me" he said again with a hand that measured the distance when he stared at the ghost of the skull.

My stomach churns, as if that hideous face was right in front of me. Not to mention the image of pocong's face is still imagining, Damn, I really want to vomit.

"What's wrong with you?" asked uncle who turned out to observe my behavior.

"No, why is it uncle" I replied holding back something that wanted to come out of my throat.

"It's okay uncle, she really likes it. Nimas likes to get into the story line every time she listens to it," answered Widya. "Here, you drink the tea first," said Widya, handing her a cup of sweet tea.

"So how about it? Just finish the story?" uncle looks worried.

"No uncle, please continue. I'm fine" I replied. I will feel guilty if uncle stops talking just because of me.

"Are you really okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine" I replied while wiping my face with both hands.

"In that case, okay"

"Uncle, what did you do next when you saw that Skeleton-faced woman? Run? Scream?" asked Widya.

"I told you, I can't do anything. Instead of running, I can't even scream. Luckily at that time there were residents who happened to be on patrol, they came straight to me. One of them tapped me on the shoulder."

"Man, what are you doing here?" said the uncle imitating the accent of his story.

"Meanwhile, I stuttered, unable to answer anything. I wanted to tell him that there was a ghost in front of me by pointing, but it turned out that the ghost of the woman with the skull face had disappeared somewhere. The residents looked confused and full of questions, but after that I couldn't remember anything. -what else. When I woke up, I was already in one of the residents' houses. When I woke up, then I could tell what I had experienced on that street."
