Lifelong Togetherness

"Lifelong togetherness"

This story is what my grandmother told me when I was little. Grandma said that her mother had a sister who would treat her (Arbolaryo). I still remember that my grandmother said that her aunt had an affair with her doctor about a couple who promised a lifelong marriage. Grandma said that in a secluded area of ​​their town there is a lover who loves each other very much. It took several years of marriage and the couple allegedly got married. But just a few days after the wedding, the man had an accident and died. It is said that the woman could not accept her death, especially since they even nailed each other so that no matter what happens, no one will be left behind and no one will be able to separate from them. Because as long as they live together. That is why in the extreme pain of feeling and fulfilling their promise to each other. He did not seduce his wife and just laid her on the bed of their room. He was always next to her in bed while sleeping and talking as if you were still alive and sleeping soundly. But 3 days passed and the man suddenly came to life. He feels so happy, he feels like a miracle has happened and God has given him. She hugged the man. Out of sheer pleasure, he did not notice the change of man. Its body is already decomposing. The woman thought of getting food for her husband so she let go of the hug and was about to go down to the kitchen when the man suddenly got angry when he was at the door. Suddenly his eyes widened and his tongue dropped and he said "come here dear, let's go to sleep!" even though he was shocked and felt scared, the woman still obeyed him. Until a few days later, the woman gradually noticed how different her husband was then from what she is now. Because every time he goes to the kitchen or somewhere, his wife suddenly gets up, furious and suddenly licks her tongue, and takes him to sleep in their room again. So one day the woman decided to run away and ask for help. Her husband was asleep again when he suddenly ran downstairs and took the knife and ran to the boat. Opo Bangka. Because they want to live quietly and away from noise and chaos. They prefer to stay in the secluded part of the town where you will first take a boat to them and also back to town. And so he went to the boat. He tried to untie the boat, but he found it difficult to untie it. He was even more confused and frightened when he heard his wife's voice calling to him so when he thought about it he was furious looking out the window while sticking out his long tongue while continuing to say they were going to sleep. So he tried to use the knife to remove the leash. Exactly when he removed it, his wife was already at the door of their house and walked quickly towards him while his long tongue was sticking out. So he immediately got on the boat and just watched his wife at the far end of the land who was very angry with him. He went to my grandmother's mother's arbolaryo brother. He asked for help and equaled everything that happened. So they immediately went to it with many men to help them. When they reached the place the man was still at the end waiting for him as he continued to be called to sleep. That is why before they could continue to dock, the arborist sprayed it with something like salt. And because of that, his long tongue suddenly came back inside his mouth and never came out. So their companions grabbed and carried the man and buried him in the ground. And because it was so strong and struggling to get away, they decided to tie the coffin. While the coffin was in the pit, the arborist forced the woman to release the man and offer a prayer for his peace. And let go of their promise to each other. That is why after the woman's sincere prayer, the ground cover began to cover it and as it was gradually covered, the coffin continued to move. And after that day the woman left that place to start a new life. While the man was still underground. Grandma said that since the woman left, they have not heard anything about it.
