The Revelation Two

3rd POV

Amanina's room kind of smelly and dirty. The moment Amanina's mother opened the door, the aura was eerie and dark. All of them were anticipating for Amanina to talk with them spesh Nurul. Their hearts throbbing like crazy with every step they made. Amanina's mother looked at them, worried if her daughter harm them. The room's light was kind of dim so was her mother use torchlight instead. The three of them moved slowly until they stepped something.

There were torn papers on the floor. The papers look like it that have been used with scribbles. Hence, Amanina's room was messy at the same time they pinched their nose to prevent the smell. They could smell piss and shit though to Nurul the scribbles were something else. She saw all the papers were written with a black pen marker. Amanina's mother then passed the torchlight to her and wait behind and the other two just follow.

She took it and directed it to the floor. She wants to know what the scribbles are but then, she saw other things were disordered at the corner. There was also a comb, lipstick, baby powder, tissue box, mascara, pen and marker scattered on the makeup table. The makeup mirror was broken and dusty as if someone had thrown a firm thing and never been used after. Dee and Aifaa looked in the same direction, much surprised. They could not stand if the light was bright, good it was dim to their liking.

The walls close to them were dirty with scribbles like a round and star shape plus thick dark paint. Oh wait, is it not paint? Goosebump! Then, what is that? F*ck! Nurul entered second after Amanina's mother thus she called Amanina twice but she did not budge to look or respond. What is wrong with her today? She usually was out of her mind whenever people got into her room but today was not the case. She was different and her mother felt relief somehow as these past months were agony for her.

Amanina just standing near her bed and stared at the walls. Her mother discontinued walking and standing near her daughter's closet, not wanting to crowd around her. Nurul now became the leader and glimpsed at Amanina's mother as her mother halted from moving. Her mother then nodded, believed they could make Amanina's sanity in a better condition. Nurul craned to the two but they made a 'No sh*t. I'm out' face thus she had no choice yet to step near Amanina.

They started feeling uneasy. Nurul stepped slowly and almost alongside her yet Aifaa and Dee abruptly halted, just watching behind. Whilst Amanina's mother worriedly looked at her daughter, wondering why she was quiet at this moment. It could have been better if her daughter was this calm every time she entered her room. But then, Nurul hesitantly called while trying to peek at her face.

"Amanina? Are you... okay?"

"Hm?"

Surprisingly, she instantly turned and hummed as if she was busy and not knowing Nurul, Dee and Aifaa were in her room. Everyone was shocked and agape including her mother as well. Gasps also were audible the moment she hummed. Nurul stoned as she paced towards her with a naive smile. Nurul being Nurul, her heartbeat boosted than normal as anxiety got the best of her. Her soul nearly left her body while Amanina stay put ahead of her, keenly stared into her eyeballs.

"H-how are you, Amanina?" She asked.

"I'm fine. You can see me, right?" Amanina answered and her smile swiftly changed to a psycho one. But they could not differentiate it from that as she turned into an innocent person back.

"Y-yeah. O-obviously you are before me" She stuttered.

"You're such a blur but at the same time, cute" Amanina said balderdash.

"Huh?" She confused. What the h*ck she was talking about?

"See? You are such a loser blur" Amanina confidently said.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand" She queried, brows knitted as she does not apprehend what she trying to say.

"You thought Farahain did it don't yer?" Amanina questioned then showed a lopsided smirk.

"She... did what?" She still could not comprehend.

"Dee, I think I know what she's talking about" Aifaa whispered.

"About what??? I don't catch what she tryna tell though" Dee also could not understand.

"She is th- let's see what she's gonna tell her" Aifaa paused and pondered whether to tell her or not but decided to keep it to herself.

"What the??! It's better if you keep your mouth shut, you bull. I almost believe you sh-" Dee muttered.

Bam!

A loud thud could be heard and it interrupted Dee and Aifaa's conversation. Once again, Amanina shocked everyone. She pushed Nurul to the makeup table next to her and cursed non-stop. She divulged and spat out everything she felt. Speechless. The two helped her yet she went too close to Amanina. The aura turned gloomy and it sent chills to their spines. Their peepers twitching like something undesirable will occur.

"Don't pretend like you don't know, Nurul!" Amanina yelled.

"Farahain already apologised and I still couldn't fathom what you told" She calmly told.

"F*ck! You hurt me! And you said you didn't know?!!"

"I hurt you?"

"The time when we had a project together, you b*tch! It was supposed to be my title but you took it! The essay title should be mine! You guys should choose mine!"

"I-i'm sorry"

"You said the majority will be chosen but you chose yours instead to add the vote for your own! And besides, we just need one answer right now and choose the one that has more info on the internet! That's exactly what you said to me!"

"I think I chose yours instead of mine"

"No! You son of a b*tch! You are no different from the shaman but he's much smarter than you! You are selfish!"

"Wait, what did you say? Shaman? You're the one who did those nasty things to me?"

"Yup! Because of that, I felt offended! People thought you are naive but you're not! You are just like satan!"

"But why did you gave me homemade food?"

"Because I recited mantras to those foods and put SOMETHING in it! HAHAHA! You are stupid! It's fun to bully you though with brainwashing Farahain to join me. She knows how to be my slave!"

"You're just using her?" Aifaa shockingly asked, unbelievable.

"So, all this time it was just an act that you're being nice towards Nurul?" Dee's turns to question, curiosity got the better of her.

"Wh-what? Why?!! Why do you have to use black magic? You can just be frank to me! Why??!" She desperately asked while controlling her emotions.

But Amanina provoked her by paced in her direction. She creepily smiled at her and nearly pushed her again but Nurul had time to dodge. Nurul began walking and wants to choke her but Amanina speedily grabbed a pen on the makeup table and wants to stab her. Dee and Aifaa saw them thus immediately sprinted and brought Nurul outside. Amanina's mother saw it too and instantaneously followed them as well as locked the door. Amanina keep banging it hard while shouting Nurul should suffer. Amanina's mother was beyond speechless and remorse and disgrace could be seen on her front.

Is she really my daughter? Is that how these all took place? Why, my lovely daughter? Why?

Amanina's mother went to the kitchen not long after and brought them a glass of water each. Nurul cooled down her outrage then spacing out thinking what Amanina told her just now as she could not recall that day. Dee and Aifaa swallowed the water in one go while Nurul does not even touch the glass. Amanina's mother was upset and disappointed with her daughter. She never imagine her daughter was this awful and even went too far by using a shaman.

Dee and Aifaa said Amanina still got hopes and they could help her as they remembered about ustaz Tajul. They told Amanina's mother everything about what had happened to Nurul during the cure part and her mother attentively listened. The banging sound already stopped and the environment became silent. Yet it could not help Nurul as she remained baffled and lost in thoughts.

'Why I can't remember that day? Argh!'

Amanina's mother sniffed all of a sudden and apologise to her, almost cried. Amanina's mother continuously said sorry and could not look at her countenance as she felt ashamed of what her daughter had done. Nurul moved from her trance and realised she spacing out for more than 10 minutes. She heard the sniff and felt sorry for Amanina's mother thus she caressed her back and told her it was not her fault. Amanina's mother needed this kind of support even though she was not her daughter but ever since months ago, she acted strong enough to survive and no one help her.

"It's okay, aunty. Cry if you want. I know it's must be hard for you to take care of her" She gently said.

Amanina's mother hugged her while crying, shutting her eyes till it flowed. She sincerely smiled and somehow her madness lessening. She does not care if her shirt got wet but Amanina's mother was not in a good state. Her mental and physical were indeed weaken and nearly breakdown if she was not able to be this great. Soon, Nurul left with a little disappointment and rage.

"You should be cautious with your words, Nurul. Don't easily get fool. You're too innocent that made people wanna step on you especially people like Amanina. You must fight them. Don't be weak. Look after yourself" Aifaa told nonchalantly.

Aifaa advised her while driving back to Prince City. Nurul thought these all were nothing and her relationship with Amanina was fine until this day came. Yet it was just her mind. Aifaa's words made her bottled up her emotions and miserable even more. She almost verged into tears but covered it pretty well. Not wanting sympathy from either Dee or Aifaa. She was tough but wished Aifaa did not say that as well as promised to herself to be careful when socializing with people she were not close with.

'You have to endure it, Nurul. Until you get home. Please'

'Don't cry, I'm begging you'
