*** POV

Tsk... Another boring day.

I don't remember since when I got the fancy to stare at the view out of my window.

Maybe because I don't have much to do?

Hell, I don't have anything to do...

I feel so empty, until I decided to do some funny stuff towards other people that passed by.

Sometimes it's fun, but other times…. I also feel guilty.

I rubbed my face with both hands roughly.

Until when? How much longer must I wait?

The last time I tried to interact with someone that tried to live here, he was really scared and left the next day.

I laid my body on the bed, which I used to remember was very soft.

Yeah, technically I don't feel anything.

I think I look like I'm lying up here. In fact, I'm just floating.

Of course. In fact, if I have to move places, I don't have to step foot.

But I prefer to do it the way I used to.

At least that can remind me of my old habits.

While I'm still breathing and alive….

What? you ask why am i still here?

Yeah, I did choose to stay.

Wait, what's that? That sound was like someone opening the fence padlock...

Holy shit!

That's right! Someone's coming!

Finally, after a long wait, she brought another person here.

I opened the window blinds a little to see it more clearly.

Heh, I think that woman knows I'm peeking...

A girl.. she brought a girl.

Woah... She's so beautiful.

Cute face, long hair.

Wow... If only I was still alive...

But if I were still alive, of course I wouldn't be the same age as that girl. But the same age as the woman who brought her here.

OK, I need to go downstairs and hear what they're talking about.

I can hear them from behind the doors.

I have to be careful. I'd better find a safe hiding place.

Of course I know they will be very difficult to see me in a bright daylight like this.

But still just in case I can't let my guard down.

I won't let the opportunity pass just like the others.

It's been a long time since I wandered in a place I should have left a long time ago.

It's time to get serious.

I promise to focus on my goals.

"Don't get me wrong. The garden is well-maintained, but the landlord only hires a gardener. As for the conditions inside the house, we can't expect much... I myself visited it since the last tenant..."

I heard that woman spoke.

Heh. How dare you! you want to say this house is old and not well maintained right?

Didn’t she know I am still here?

What am I? A ghost?

... -_-...

Hehe, of course…

But I've tried to clean this house, I also don't want to live in a dirty place!

Then I heard the girl's soft voice.

She asked about the last time anyone lived here.

Two years ago, the answer...

Somehow, I shouldn't feel sad. But my heart feels uncomfortable hearing that answer.

It’s me…

It was me who stayed for a very long time.

I stay in this house, always here.

I never left.

Unlike those who continue to live and grow with time.

I am stuck.

I know, I should not complain about it. I chose it.

It's just, somehow. The loneliness that always accompanies me makes me, who no longer have a heart, still emotional.

The door opened, I could feel a nervous and uncomfortable aura from the woman with the curly hair.

After all this time? Of course.

They entered and I kept watching silently behind the door.

This girl looks like around my age at that time and she's really pretty..

In the past, I often saw beautiful girls in my school. But I must admit, there was no one as beautiful as her...

She looked back and forth, her long dark hair flowing down almost to her waist.

I can't see the expression on her face clearly from back here, but I can feel the positive aura flowing from this girl..

The woman invited her to have a look.

I hope she like this house.

I followed them, trying to hide at close range. Even though I know they can't see me, I still can't be careless.

I don't want to lose this opportunity.

Who knows, this girl can help me...

Every time the woman explained, she nodded and smiled...

Great job, she seemed to take interest about this house.

They entered my room... I mean the master bedroom

Ah, luckily I kept it clean.

Look, she's sitting on my bed!

"Ria?..."

Oh, so her name is Ria? Okay, I hope Ria is a brave girl.

Not like the one before..

"Tomorrow... I'm moving here tomorrow."

sweet!!

I clenched my hand over my mouth. I almost screamed.

I got one more chance. I hope this time fate will cooperate with me.

After they left, I did my best to clean the house.

I can't touch things directly. I think it's called an energy wave.

That's why I can move things with that wave.

My energy surge will be most powerful when it's my death anniversary.

I can use it a little now.

That day will come in two weeks...

I lifted all the furniture coverings in the house.

I made a small gust of wind on the floor to shake off the dust. Not all clean but a little better that before.

I tidied up my room again and removed the cloth covering the mirror.

I stared at the mirror.

What did I see?

Nothing.

Of course. I smiled stupidly to myself. The reflection of my shadow will be seen when the strongest energy appears only.

Hmm... What else should I do?

Oh! The curtains! I opened all the window blinds.

After all of the work, I felt very tired.

Eeh... Yes, I think I'm tired. should I? When we are alive, when we do a lot of things we will feel tired.

I mean my wave energy had almost run out for today.…

**

She's coming! Finally the girl is here! I thought she change her mind on this house.

I was so happy that I forgot to hide when she opened the door.

Holy shit!

She didn't see me, she didn't see me...

I froze beside the living room sofa. She looked around and was confused for a moment.

Then her expression changed. Like already understood something.

She nodded and continued her steps into the house.

She carried two medium-sized suitcases and a backpack on her back.

She headed for the stairs and I still froze, but my eyes followed where she went.

She was trying to climb the stairs with two suitcases that from the looks of it were already heavy.

"Sorry, you should stay here for a while..."

She patted a suitcase and left it at the bottom of the stairs.

She's cute too, hehe...

I followed her up. Seeing her hair tied in a pony tail, waving, matching her footsteps.

I don't know, I'm not sure. I feel warmer knowing I'm not alone anymore. It's strange to hear that a lost soul like me, still feel warmth in a heart that doesn’t even exist anymore. But that's the truth.

At least, I still have a hope that this girl will help me.

The aura that emanated from within her was a white, delicate pink color.

I once had a guest with a dark aura and it didn't end well.

Yes, I can see their aura. Their behavior and feelings, will affect the color of the aura.

For example, Ria. The soft pink color with a hint of gold signifies a feeling of calm and enthusiasm.

She's happy to be here...

I stopped suddenly. Only three steps behind her.

Shit. I didn't pay attention to our distance because I was busy watching her movements.

Now he stopped and looked at me.

No, she can't see me if I don't move.

I stood there and held my breath.

Well... I mean I just don’t breathe anymore.

She shrugged and seemed to be looking at the door that was right beside me. Then continue to walk and open the bedroom door.

Oh my god that was close.

When she entered and closed the door, I immediately opened the door to the room next to me and closed it.

And unintentionally, using a powerful energy wave.

Very unintelligent quick decision.

I slapped my forehead and hoped to feel the pain. But of course I didn't feel anything.

I heard her open the door and close it again.

Good job.

After a long wait I finally came out and started walking towards my room, I mean the main room.

I almost laughed. Why should I bother opening the door when I can get through it?

This damn ghost brain.

I then entered easily into the room and saw Ria looking at the mirror .

It's so bright in here, she won't see me even if I move.

Unless she's paying close attention.

She is indeed beautiful.

After looking at herself for a long time, she looked confused and looked back. I followed her gaze.

Hmm? I didn't do it...

I came in without unintentionally open the damn door. 

I wanted to raise my hands in defeat to tell her it wasn't me.

But of course that is ridiculous.

After she closed the door, for a third time. Ria then went to the bed and laid there.

It didn't take long for her to fall asleep.

I walked to the edge of the bed and sat at the foot of the bed.

Looks like she's tired.

Luckily I used this energy surge to clear at least some of the rooms she would use frequently.

Don't get your hopes up with that woman. She only thought about her profit.

Tsk, I sneer when I remember her face. She never really changed.

I approached slowly. Look at this beautiful face up close.

Wow, her eyelashes are long it match her beauty.

Either I was stunned because of her beauty, or I was too happy to see someone else here.

After watching her sleep for a long time, I began to realize that I haven't cleaned the bathroom.

Moving from there I headed to the bathroom and looked into it.

Eh.. I think Ria should clean this up herself.

Not that I can't do it. However, I've never used too many energy waves and I don't know what effect it would be...

I'm sure after falling asleep, she will restore her energy.

I tried turning the shower faucet.

Hm... Oh this works, but not quite to the right again.

The water’s running. Great, at least there's still water.

Suddenly the door opened with a bang, made me almost jumped and automatically looked back.

Ria looked very surprised, I could see her aura which was dark yellow.

She's scared.

Shit shit shit. How can I be this sloppy?

I think, I used to being alone and that made me less sensitive to sound.

How much have I done already?

Will she be leaving soon too?

I looked at her face who was still looking around with fear.

I looked down resignedly. Okay. Looks like she won't be here long either.

It's ridiculous, I think I did a lot of things to make her comfortable.

But I just bothered her.

Then I glanced down at the her feet, and saw faint pink smoke appear again.

Eh? She's not afraid anymore?

    There must be an explanation for all of this. Ria walked along the alley, brought her groceries in both hands. Even in the night, this area was not so quite. Some people still passed by and the street light was all on, so she thought it was still pleasant to walk a little at this hour. She needed to think. Maybe, Trisha came back to the house and cleaned up a little after she left. Maybe… She could not accept any illogical explanation for whatever happens in that house. Well, her brain refused to. In this world, there must be some logic answers for every little thing that happens. Even the old once said many things out of myth and belief, it turned out that they just didn't know what really happen yet. Once they said rainbow is a bridge for angels. They descend to earth using the rainbow ladder to a lake to bathe.

    What was that all about? That dream… It was so real, as if she was actually there. Ria rubbed her face roughly. No. She's just exhausted. Dreams usually relate to something we think about before going to bed that day and she was thinking about some odd thing she had found in this house. Her brain made her thought a lot about it all the way to her dreams. She didn't want to think about the nonsense she had in her sleep. Dreams are just collection of thoughts. Right? “Forget it, I have a lot to do now...” Ria muttered to herself. She got up and immediately headed to the bathroom to finish her business in there. After taking a shower and changing clothes while arranging her toiletries in the bathroom, she already felt refreshed. Ria tried not to think about things she didn’t feel necessary, including that dream. Ria often dreams in her sleep. Some things she didn't understand, some things scared her. But she always forgets the dreams, even just hours after she wakes up. That

    "What is it? Are you alright?" Hans asked Ria who looked uncomfortable with her food. Ria smiled a little and tried to swallow her food. “I'm fine, thank you…” Ria tried to swallow the bland fried egg in her mouth. She almost spat it out, thank God it didn’t happen. If she did, she would be considered strange and no one would want to be friends with her anymore. At least that what she thought. It had been a long time since Ria had friends at school. Even though it felt awkward but she felt a little happy that someone wanted to sit with her. Moreover considered her as one of their friend. At least nobody here thought she was a weirdo. Or those who think she is jinxed and stay away from her like a disease. “Ria, tell me if you go shopping to prepare for the party! We'll go together

His whole body was like a see-through faint light. From this distance, I could still saw the couch and the scenery behind it. “What… are you…” I muttered. I wasn't sure if this figure heard me. I was so shocked that my voice barely came out. This figure is tall, I could saw it from the way he sat. He sat down casually, like he was leaning on the sofa. His knees bent down because his long legs touch the floor. I saw his face. He stared at me unblinkingly. I dared myself to step forward, forcing my weak knees to support my trembling legs. What am I looking at here? Have I gone crazy? I s

    The University library is huge and Ria very excited to explore it. She felt like she was on the other side of the world when she was here. How could she not. She did not expect that this room had such an extraordinary interior. The library has high ceilings and spans two floors. The pillars of the building are very tall and large, made her felt like she was wandering in a land of giants. She was given instructions by one of the librarians how to find the reference books she was looking for. And she was looking for books that related to ghost or paranomal things. She picked up several books, articles, and also novels. She didn't know if it would help but it seemed like those horror novels she could read in her spare time.

He would hug her and asked her if something was wrong but she always told him that everything’s alright. Kevin knew she was lying because her pounding heart that was clear to his ear. Kevin didn’t say anything about that. He also afraid that he will really has to go when she’s not around. He at least want her presence the moment when he finally has to leave. These days, Ria noticed something was not right happen to him. She often see him stood and looked straight but gaze to nothing.

She approach Kevin who stood in front of the glass window but her gaze was straight and empty. “Kevin?… Kevin!” She finally stood in front of him and called him out loud.

    “What is it?” She asked softly stroked his cold arms and looked into his eyes. She stared at him and didn’t know how she will handle the loss and pain after he gone. She couldn’t. But this is fate. This was how it all will end. She didn’t want this to happen or not, it will after all. She hope this was not really the end for them. Ria closed her eyes, feeling the cold soft touch of his fingers on her cheeks. A second later, she gasped feeling his cold soft lips on hers. And she kissed him back with all the love and passion for him. They felt each other warmth and coldness. Felt the love and pain they had to face with all the fate that was written for them. They parted and Ria gasped for air. Kevin chuckled looking at her cuteness. “Look.” He turned to the cupboard and pointed at it. “There is something in the wall just behind this cupboard.” He said. “In?” Ria frowned. “Yes. In it. You might need a hammer to break it. But it’s not that hard anyway. I seal it with something

We talked the whole night and he told us, all about what actually happen that day…”Ria told grandma about their conversation and the old woman sometimes nodded her head while listening to her.She also sometimes gasped and frowned while listening to her, feeling sympathy for the two young souls.“Oh my god… Poor Darren..” She said.“Yeah… The guilt he felt was too much that he forget about himself.” Ria said softly.“We didn’t recognize him at all… If only I knew..” Jo said and Ria nodded.“Kevin said so…” She uttered.Grandma smiled when she heard Ria mentioned her nephew’s name.“How is he?” She asked and Ria knew she was asking about Kevin.“He’s fine. He’s busy reunited with his best friend…” R

He can’t blame his family for they only want the best for him. He also thought that he might be really crazy at that time.“So. You still going to high school?” Kevin asked him. Darren was a

The less expression on his face didn’t say anything and only looked at the sobbing and crying man.“What happen to you?”Ria shot up her head upon hearing his voice.He sounded so hurt meanwhile Darren still bowing on the floor.“I’m sorry… I’m sorry…. just do whatever you want with me…” Darren plead.“Don’t you think it’s a little bit too late for that now?” Kevin‘s cold voice made Ria shook and she just saw this side of him.“I-I know… I know… Just do whatever you want with me.

Why don’t you tell the others what actually happen?” Kevin asked him.“I’m scared…” He whispered. “Kev, I’m scared… It was so hard for me to open up about what happen. I am a selfish person… If it weren’t for me, you could still alive…” He sobs.“Yes.

    “Darren?” “Darren?” Ria mumbled. Wait, hold on a second. The old man looked even more scared when he heard her say his name. “Ria, tell him to come inside the house.” Kevin’s flat tone asked her without turned towards her. He was still in front of her, staring at the old man, that he called Darren. Ria nodded her head. “Sir, we need to talk. Please come inside.” She told him. But the man didn’t say any word. The ground looked really interesting to him. “Told him, it’s me that asked him in.” Kevin said. “Kevin told you to come in.” She repeated him. His eyes widened at her and then back to the ground but he nodded several time. As if that was her cue, Ria stepped forward and opened the gate. She waited for the old man to come in and close the gate. She walked ahead for both of them meanwhile Kevin already nowhere to be seen. She opened the door and the lamps inside the house instantly light up. Once again, it’s not because the lighting inside the house were advance. But it w

Why?” He looked at her with question mark on his face. “I’m gonna spill the tea!” She said again. “Why? It’s gonna wet all over…” Ria stared at him in disbelieve before she laughed and realized something. Kevin couldn’t hold his smile saw her laugh so freely. Even though he was the one she was laughing about. He will remember every detail of her. “I’m not gonna literally spill the tea. It’s meant gossip.” She explained ans he finally understand. “Ooh.. that’s how you say it these days?” He smiled She chuckled and nodded, “But, What I’m gonna tell you it’s not just any gossip.
