Synopsis

"So, do you believe in ghosts now?" Irene Blanchard has never believed in things related to the paranormal. You saw a ghost? She'll rationalise it as a trick of the light. But what happens if she actually did see a ghost? A powerful one that's able to end a life at that. Together with the school's resident heartthrob, Kai Putra Irawan, she's now dragged into the dangerous world of paranormal hunting. Will she be able to survive all of the foreign ghosts she never thought could take a life? (This is probably basically BuzzFeed Unsolved but with death, smut, and overly dramatic descriptions. Every character is completely fictional and the ghosts, while they do exist in name, some of the rules and whatnot of the ghosts are dramatised and made up.)

"And that concludes this chapter. The information regarding the next joint quiz will be posted on MS Teams, so please keep an eye out for that."Irene sighs in relief as Ms Yanti's class finally ends. There's only so much thermodynamics she can handle in one sitting after all. She quickly packs her bags up and leaves the classroom to head home for the day."Irene, Irene!"At the sound of her name, she turns her head to see Theresa, a friend of hers majoring in environmental engineering. Even though they were in different majors and faculties, they shared their physics and chemistry classes last year and got close to each other in the span of that year."Hey Tess, you done for the day?" Irene asks, putting her long, light brown hair into a ponytail."Pretty much! My last class is Introduction to Structures and the professor doesn't really give a shit about attendance anyway." Theresa says as she yawns. "Bandung's been quite cold these days huh?""I think the weather's just fine, better

Chapter 2

Town Secrets: Bandung/Ajwamiju

The scene currently displayed in front of Irene can only make her stomach drop. A woman is currently... having intercourse with what Irene could only describe as a beast. Its stature is gigantic, maybe about 3 to 3.5 metres tall, its whole body is covered in raven fur, sharp, yellow teeth poke out of its mouth, and its eyes are bright red. The beast doesn't seem to notice Kai and Irene's presence as it's busy with the woman it's currently having sex with."I'll explain later. You just sit here for a bit." Kai whispers and lets go of Irene.Kai then turns to face of whatever that beast is, muttering something under his breath before barging into the room. Irene can only watch helplessly as the beast nonchalantly throws the now unconscious woman away to deal with Kai. The beast stops pursuing Kai, however, as its blaring red eyes lock onto Irene's figure from behind the door.Irene can see Kai's confusion as he turns to try and call the beast, his insults and provocation falling on deaf

Town Secrets: Bandung/Ajwamiju

"... What?!"Kai sighs as he lets his hair loose from its half bun, scratching the back of his head in frustration. "The gandaruwa ignored me, even when I'm harming it with prayers and mantras. Its sole focus was on you because it noticed your different scent and wanted to make sure. Once it did, it escaped and probably went to tell all the other ghosts, spirits, what have you, in the area to tell them a rare blood appeared, they're now either against each other or working together, who knows, honestly." He recounts, walking over to the kitchenette to pour water for both himself and Irene."But I've been here for a year now and I'm just fine?" Irene asks, motioning to herself."Well, remember the string of unexplained deaths that have been happening since we started our third semester?" Kai asks as he slides a glass for Irene. She nods, remembering how no one's been charged for any of the murders that took place. "That's when the ghosts started acting up." Kai walks over to the balco

Town Secrets: Bandung/Ajwamiju

"It's so not like you to fuck up your routine." Aisya comments as she sits next to Irene during the 2-hour break they have between classes. "What happened?"Irene groans and buries her head in her arms, not wanting to talk about the fact she didn't sleep a wink last night due to what happened and has been paranoid all day after sensing someone or something has been stalking her for a while. She knows better than to dismiss whatever's stalking her as human, considering she hasn't been able to see whatever's been following her all morning."It's... nothing. Stuff happened yesterday, I wasn't able to get a good night's sleep." Irene finally answers after going through a few options on how to answer."Do... you want to talk to someone about said stuff?" Aisya asks wearily."I--""With me, most probably."Irene looks up to see Kai already standing next to her, opposite of Aisya. "Aisya, how have you been? Been a while since we last talked, huh?"Irene peeks over at Aisya and sees that her

Town Secrets: Bandung/Ajwamiju

"I need your help."Irene raises an eyebrow at the fact the woman isn't currently side-eyeing her or asking Kai to go be alone somewhere. From what she's heard, especially from the campus's anonymous confession account, girls who approach Kai more often than not get at least glared by others or worse."How can I be of assistance?" Kai asks, his voice changing to a serious and stern tone, different to the one he used just seconds prior.'Is he... sensing something?' Irene thinks to herself as she listens in to the conversation."Ah, right, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Safira, but please call me Saf, aerospace engineering IUP batch 2020." The woman, Safira, introduces herself."Nice to meet you Safira. Kai, environmental engineering 2022, this is my friend Irene, chemical engineering 2022." Kai says and motions to Irene. Safira glances at Irene wearily to which Irene simply nods her head politely. "Please don't mind her being here, she might be able to help with your problem

Chapter 6

Town Secrets: Bandung/Ajwamiju

Throughout the whole day, Irene can barely concentrate on her classes. One, the thing following her since morning continues to persist and frankly, it's annoying. Two, she continues to wonder how Safira and her friend are doing, she knows pregnancies can be unpredictable, what if Safira's friend suddenly goes into labour? Timing is very crucial in these cases. And three, Kai's been constantly in her mind ever since he said he would never be too busy for her and that he's not expecting any money from protecting her. If that doesn't sound like special treatment, she doesn't know what counts as special treatment."Irene?"Irene looks up to see Aisya looking at her, her eyes are full of worry as Aisya retracts her hand after tapping Irene's shoulder. "You haven't been well since you met up with Kai, is something wrong?" She asks."It's nothing, just... Kai. You know how he likes the paranormal and stuff and he's been bugging me about it since he found out I don't believe in them." Irene l

Chapter 7

Town Secrets: Bandung/Ajwamiju

The ride back home to Irene's homestay was silent. Neither Theresa nor Aisya had the guts to actually ask what went on that it affected both Irene and Kai to that extent, hell, they couldn't even make light conversation to liven up the taxi ride. They both decided that maybe they should just ask Irene so they both won't be left completely blind in the dark.Without Irene asking, they both follow her to her room and Irene lets them. Kai never said to keep whatever is going on a secret and a few friends might actually help them in the long run. Irene unlocks her room and enters, placing her bag on the chair before laying down on her bed, exhausted.Theresa and Aisya look at each other, mentally urging the other to be the one to start the conversation. After another 10-second struggle, Theresa relents with a sigh. "Irene, um... is it okay if we ask what happened back there...?" She asks wearily, hoping this won't upset Irene further.Irene sits up and motions for her friends to sit down

Town Secrets: Bandung/Ajwamiju

"What do you think of Kai?"Irene tilts her head confusedly at Theresa's question. "Kai? He's a friend." She answers, even as confused as she is."Just a friend?" Theresa asks again, trying to make sure Irene's telling the truth."Yes, just a friend." Irene answers, exasperated at Theresa's sudden question and interest in her relationship with Kai. "Why are you asking this anyway?""... Don't... don't think I'm reaching with my thoughts but... I think Kai may be interested in you."Irene sits up straight after hearing what Theresa said. "Tess, there's literally no way Kai's interested in me.""No, listen to me! He definitely is! Irene, he gave you a nickname and he's willing to call you!""Doesn't he have nicknames for other people?""Have you ever heard him call me by my nickname even though my name is long?"Irene stops to think about what Theresa said, it's true that Kai calls Theresa, Aisya, and Safira by their names and not what they prefer to be called. "Maybe he's just trying t
