The sound of the door opening made the two of them stop groaning in frustration, Edward and Yeqiu came in with a bag of food. Yeqiu smiled and called out to Tania, telling her to choose the rice balls and the desired drink.
"Eh- no need," said Tania politely.
"It's okay, you must be hungry," Yeqiu replied, pushing a bag filled with rice balls and forcing Tania to choose. To be honest all the rice balls looked delicious in Tania's eyes.
"No need-" Tania's stomach voice seemed to echo in the VIP ICU room, overpowering the device that kept Henry alive.
The booming voice made everyone silent for a moment. Tania's face turned red rapidly and Edward's loud laughter beat the sound of the machine installed in Henry's body for the second time.
It was just a matter of time to find out why Henry couldn't return to his original body, maybe Tania's family could help with this. A tinge of fear had followed Henry ever since he found his body, he was happy, delighted. But there was a strange feeling that continued to follow him like a reluctance to continue investigating himself.Henry shook his head, he had troubled Tania, even endangered the girl, there was no way she could run away or back off now. The thing he wanted the most was to be free from his half-ghost status, he wanted a clearance and now was his time to make one for himself. Investigating and finding a way back into his body was the only way, the right answer.That night after their day in the hospital, finding so many details about Henry’s life– Tania and Henry had already planned what they were going to do tomorrow. Tania was looking for information about Nathan Lee's family which, as they suspected, was very little, only a few photos were taken by news reporter
"Go follow your fate and you may get the salvation you seek, boy," the little girl with a black skirt said to Henry.When the Earth and the Sky didn't accept the poor soul anymore when the boy had no idea why the world hated him so much.The boy was lost, losing his memories about his past life and why he couldn't reincarnate to the next life.He only knew his name, Henry.He wasn't even sure how old he was when he died.He was a ghost, he had no shadows. He had nobody.He walked and walked, endless.Darkness followed him, clueless and deafen
The jawline looked sharp from the side where Tania was standing, she stared at the man she didn't recognize.For a moment Tania thought the young man was crying and venting. The sadness was crystal clear when he was engraving words on the narrow alley wall.Tania watched the corner of the stranger's lips lifted, a bitter smile on his face as the tip of the screwdriver touched the wall and engraved words.The man's hand continued to thicken the engraving as if he wanted the writing to penetrate the wall and never disappear.Krit kritThe sound made teeth ache, Tania suddenly remembered the words of Mrs Fania; people around here continued to complain abo
Just if the man wasn't a ghost.Tania would be delighted to meet him and let him follow her down to the aisle.Tall, handsome, just really fit the type that Tania likes, there was no man as handsome as the ghost at Tania's school.Even the seniors who were popular at school were less handsome. Not to mention the voice he had was heavy and deep, a bit hoarse, just great.It could be said that God gave another answer because the ghost still followed Tania casually to the exhibition building, "You like books?"Tania sighed and nodded, at least she wasn't alone walking around in the big book bazaar.Curse them
The trip to Tania's house turned out to be quite far.Henry thought she lived around the compound where they met this afternoon but she didn't.'I'm not one of those rich people, Henry. So don't expect this girl to invite you to a big pretty house.'The station she was going to was far from the station near the complex.It was only natural that he had seen Tania's face for the first time even though he had been wandering around the complex for quite a while."I was going to take my friend," answered Tania when Henry asked why she was around the complex."But, well," Tania's face looked sad even as
Tania's father confirmed that they heard correctly.Henry is not dead and he is still alive, "your body is still alive somewhere."Tania's father returned to his original position.His spiritual energy also returned to a normal human's energy in a split second.For a mortal to be able to manipulate and control his power like that, it was a thing Henry never expected to witness."The little girl you mentioned, she left a small message by protecting you, and from what I read about your soul colour," the older man snapped his finger, "you're still alive, dead spirit doesn't have energy colour like yours."So
Hurt...I can't breathe!Henry's throat felt suffocated, he kicked and reached but he couldn't touch anything.His legs kicked as hard as he could.He gasped, trying to take as much oxygen.There was only water that drowned him.Pitch black water.The water was cold, freezing, his hands started to go limp and his legs stopped kicking.Numb...He blinked several times, only darkness greeted him.
“Don’t look into their eyes,” John said, pulling Tania’s hand as they walked on the quiet street.It was her seventh birthday when her father took her to a small bookstore. She wanted to buy a new sketchbook.“But Papa,” she tugged at his hand, “the old lady was hurting.”John smiled softly, lifting the little girl into his embrace as he continued walking.“The old lady isn’t someone you can help, dear,” he said, “not yet.”Tania hummed, looking at the old lady who stood alone under the streetlamp as if she was searching for something.“The old lady is searching for somethin
