All Chapters of Ghost In Red: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

*Sydney Roswell's POV*---"Why are you laughing?" OJ asked while pouting her lips and crossing her arms on her chest, and I tried to compose myself from cackling at her silly question."Didn't you hear what I said just a while ago? It's not even two minutes passed yet. So...? Did you? Didn't you?" I asked her as my answer to her question, and she made an adorable thinking face, trying to recall what I told her back at the stairs. I damn confessed my love to her, but she seemed to be not listening at all. Ugh!"Uh-huh. Yeah, yeah, right. I... I did hear it. I was just... trying to... you know... confirm it. Yep." She stuttered and laughed sheepishly, and I just mocked her, making her look away from my face and letting out a small, shy smile.Looking at her so happy right now and all good makes me want to cry badly. I may look strong and okay all these moments I spent with her, but I am heavily breaking inside. I don't want to show her how weak I am, how miserable

*Olivia Jillian Hunters’ POV*—My heart sank, hearing the person who used to be so optimistic about almost everything say she wanted to die. Is she giving up? That’s new. I know she lost her hope for me to live, but it shouldn’t be a reason why she would lose hope for her life. There’s so much to keep living for, and she still has so much to accomplish in her life.“Hey, don’t say that, Syd. Everything will be okay.” I told my girl as I knelt before her so I could clearly see her face.Sydney lightly shook her head and sobbed, “No. It’s… I just… I can’t. Everything is not okay. I wasn’t okay, and I know… I won’t be okay.”I pursed my lips, trying not to cry as it was my first time seeing this tough person cry and about to break down.“Hey, look at me. You’re a brave girl. You’re smart. You’re amazing. You will be okay. We talked about this already.” I assured her as I brought my right hand to her cheeks to cheer her up. She closed her eyes, and I deeply kn

*Olivia Jillian Hunters' POV*—"Open your eyes," Sydney asked me, and I felt excitement as I saw what was around us.It was a beautiful garden, where there were lights around, pretty flowers, and a fountain. Then there's a gazebo with lots of flowers around it."Wow, this is amazing, Syd. Where is this?" I asked her, and she slipped her hands inside her sweatpants' pockets."It's in a restaurant. It's a secluded area for… you know, couples who want to be away from a lot of people inside there. Actually, this is where I want to… take you to have dinner someday." She answered and shyly smiled, and I could feel her nervousness even from a mile away from here."Damn, you mean… out on a date? Dinner date?" I asked her while trying so hard to contain my joy, and she nodded her head in reply."Yep. Cheesy, I know. Since I don't have a chance to bring you here soon, I brought you here now. And I don't know if any of your exes h

*Sydney Roswell's POV*—"Hey, Syd! Can you come here for a minute? I just want to ask you about something!" OJ called out to me as she went somewhere at the back of my house. I left Kitty to go where my girlfriend was and hear what she wanted to ask me."What is it?" I asked as I went near her and saw she was looking at something. It's my rose garden."This. What is this? What are these?" She asked me while pointing at the flowers in front of us, and I raised an eyebrow as I looked at her curious face."Are you blind? Roses. Flowers. Plants. Leaves. What else could those be?" I answered the obvious, and she just rolled her eyes. Those really are roses.And now, she pointed at the plants with both hands."I know these are roses. But who are these?" She replied and asked another pretty stupid question, and my eyebrows met in confusion. Why would she ask such a thing to me about my roses?"OJ, I don't name my rose

*Sydney Roswell's POV*—After we had sorted out the things we wanted to do for the rest of the day after we got back to Chicago, we went to do something that we could do around the neighborhood before heading to the airport.First, we headed to the Hunters' mansion to check if Mimi was there, but we heard that she flew to NYC the other day to be with OJ before she could leave them forever. Next, we went to Grace's house to look for her, too, but she had just gone to the airport last night to go to OJ also. Yes, she did mention to me that she'll go there after the quarterly exams. Then, as we were walking on the street, three blocks from the Thales' residence, something caught my attention when my gaze fell to the park on the opposite side from where we were.I nudged my girlfriend and pointed to the people I spotted, which I thought would interest her."Hey, OJ, look! Your exes.""Where?" She asked, following my gaze to the coup
