102 Shut Up! (Tom’s PoV) After reluctantly leaving my girlfriend, Jane, to go to where my body was staying, I was pulled by unknown force and suddenly I was surrounded by darkness. I couldn’t see anything other than feeling the strong force pulling me. The idea of losing my ability to see made me panic for a second, but then I saw a ray of light was coming closer and closer to me. No, it was me getting closer to the ray of light. As the light was getting bigger and bigger, in the end I…

101 How Much Time Do I Have? I raised my eyebrows as I stared at him, waiting for him to continue his words. “We are not sure when the next General will come. There’s no information or rule about the time of the General’s appearance.” He explained. Well, it seemed that I could only wait. “Then, tell me, how much time do I have?” Siji put on a confused expression. I didn’t know whether he was really confused or he just pretended to be. “Excuse me, Milady?” “Those old…

100 Missing! My biggest fear in life was to lose my parents. I couldn’t imagine what my life would be if they died before I did. As the only child at home, I grew up accepted all of their loves. But, they didn’t spoil me rotten, which was why I got their permission to study far from them. I knew to behave myself, not to embarrass them, to be a filial child to them. I love them so much. So, if something were to happen to them, I could only be strong and face it, under one condition; it was the…

99 Bad News! (3) After Bima left, I was starting to feel uneasy. Even though, Sanji had said not to think about it too much, I couldn’t help but feel uneasy. As I kept worrying about things that had not even happened, the rest of my sleep went bad. I kept getting nightmare. It was not the same nightmare as I had at that time, the one with shadow in it. It was like any other nightmares, where I was surrounded by darkness or being chased by monsters. I know it sounds like a child’s dream, but…

98 Bad News! (2) This revelation was not what I was expecting. Seeing the sheepish smile on the ghost face made me understood why Sanji was kicking this fellow out. I cleared my throat. “Well, since it’s still dark out there, I’m going back to sleep now. Bye.” Turning my body around, I waved goodbye to the ghost and human and closed the door hastily. Let Sanji deal with the ghost! But, before the door was closed, something blew in and held onto the door. As I turned around, I saw the…

97 Bad News! (1) I took a sharp breath as my eyebrows twitched in annoyance. “CAN I HAVE SOME FUCKING PEACEFUL TIME?!” I shouted in rage without even opening my eyes. I admit I rarely exploded like this, but this time, I was seriously annoyed! My chest raised up and down in sync with the thump of my heartbeat. I really wanted to kill someone right now! As I didn’t hear any voices or sounds after I shouted, I opened my eyes and stared at the open door. No one was there. No. No…

96 Anymore Than This, Let’s Fight! (3) “You, you, you...” My lips twitched when I saw this old man pointed his finger again at me, this time there was a mix of rage and hopelessness in his eyes. Did he only know how to say ‘you’? His other reactions couldn’t win this one. As soon as the surprise left their faces, I watched as their expression turned dark. I raised my eyebrow. “Did someone turn crazy before?” “Not just crazy, but died.” The second old man snorted.…

95 Anymore Than This, Let’s Fight! (2) “You, you, you...” Another one stood up and pointed at me while stammering. His eyes widened as shock filled his eyes. I felt a bit guilty when I had to treat an old man like this. I was taught by my father to respect the Elders and love the Younger. But, I was feeling rather impulsive right now. I felt my life was in jumble, as if someone wanted to fast forward my life into a certain point. Even before I could breathe freely from the life changing event…

94 Anymore Than This, Let’s Fight! (1) I wasn’t surrounded by dark grey walls anymore. There was no more childish ceiling. No navy blanket and yellow bed-sheet. Instead, I was laying on a hard bed with thin cover, surrounded by walls made of woods, and -forget about ceiling, this place didn’t have one- roofs made of dry palm leaves which were stacked together and bound by rope made of the skin of woods. It was arranged so tight and firm that even if it were to rain heavily, there would be no…

93 I Don’t Dare, Milady I looked at Tom who was also looking at me. My heart felt heavy when I thought he would leave me. But, it hurt even more when I thought he would die for real. If I were to think rationally, I would have let him go back to his body. I didn’t mind being separated from him for a bit, as long as I knew that he would eventually return to my side. But, this time it was different. I didn’t know if he would come back or not. I didn’t even know if he would still remember…
