Antara Darah dan Hati: Dream Reality English Translation

Chapter 14 Part 1 "Hinweisgeber"

POV Lodewijk

Ilya sat on his bed, thinking about what had happened to him. He had attacked Mevrouw Sofia when he was sleepwalking. Mevrouw Sofia, who at that time was returning to her room after taking a glass of water from downstairs, saw him walking while sleeping. Mevrouw Sofia said when she tried to wake him up from his sleep, he still didn't wake up and stood motionless. Then, mevrouw grabbed his wrist, trying to lead him back to his room, that's when that bizarre event happened.

He suddenly lunged at her until she fell on the floor, the glass she was holding fell to the floor and broke, she screamed and struggled. However, because of his greater strength, Ilya can easily choke her without too much effort. The sound of her scream echoed.

Mr. Wisnu and I, who were still awake, came out of our room and approached him who was choking mevrouw's neck with his both hands. I tried to pull him up, separating him from mevrouw but I couldn't hold him because of the force that he put when he struggled against me, giving me a fierce fight. Mr. Wisnu, who saw him escaped from me and tried to attack mevrouw again, finally helped me to hold his body. It took half an hour for us to took him to his bedroom and 15 minutes more to tie him on the bed. He was still struggling trying to get off the bed so I had to hold his body. Mr. Wisnu, knowing that he was posessed, did ruqya to him until he woke up from his sleep.

When he woke up, he was asked by mr. Wisnu about what was in his dream when he slept while walking last night, he told the contents then mr. Wisnu came out with me and mevrouw, locking Ilya in his room temporarily. We discussed for a moment about what had happened. Regarding what Ilya had told us, his dream gave me some sort of deja vu when I heard it. As if, I have experienced similar dream somehow.

"Yes, it's true, Ilya is possessed." said mr. Wisnu.

"Mr. Wisnu, do you know? His dream about the undead, it's giving me deja vu, as if I had dreamt what Ilya had dreamt." I replied.

"You had similar dream, mr. Lodewijk?" he asked in a slightly surprised tone.

"No, it's not similar, but the characteristics of the undead in his dream are the same as what appeared in my dream. Only in my dream the undead are the corpses of mr. Ilhan and mrs. Chandra, maybe, I'm not really sure either." I answered.

"Can you tell me the content of your dream? About the details are?" he asked.

"Yes, I can." I answered.

I told the details of the content of the nightmare I had in accordance with what I remember although it's vague because of the deja vu that I felt. When I finished explaining, he looked at me with a slightly surprised look at the part when I was standing in front of a high wall and a giant black dog with glowing red blood colored eyes ran to me trying to eat me. I stopped telling my dream for a moment then he asked me to continue my story until the end.

"Huuft, is that so?" he said in a low toned voice and a slightly pale expression, he then continued his words.

"Mr. Lodewijk, for the safety of all of us, we have to lock Ilya and Muhamed in their respective rooms. I also need your help, starting today after night prayer you need to sleep at at least not more than half past eight at night and wake up at 11 at night, don't go to sleep again after that, I'll explain later about why I'm asking you to do this." he said with a serious expression that made the already tense atmosphere even more tense. I really didn't understand what was going on but I just nodded at him.

"Then excuse me, I want to talk to mevrouw Sofia for a while and treat her small wounds because of the broken glass. Before I leave, I will hand over Ilya's room key to you. Muhamed's room key is still stuck on the door of his room, please help me lock his room's door." he gave me the key to Ilya's room then with mevoruw Sofia left the place where I was standing.
