"Ambassador! Ambassador!" The loud voice of a thin black man broke the busy train passengers at Tebet Station in the afternoon.
TING! TING! TING! TING!
Jihan's phone vibrated, there were several notifications coming in at once so as to produce a continuous sound. The sound was quite curious about what message notification he received.
The 23-year-old stopped her footsteps at the entrance of Tebet Station, she immediately reached into the pocket of the blue jeans she was wearing to get her phone out.
"Rizka?" Jihan muttered as she saw the notification on her phone.
^^^“You should see this!”^^^
^^^“The bastard cheated on Violet!🤬”^^
^^^“I've said many times, Rey was just using you!"^^^
With a trembling body, Jihan inched to a nearby bench and sat down before falling down. His hand covered the mouth that spontaneously gaped upon seeing the message sent by Rizka.
Seeing a loved man making out with a woman who always oppresses him, is like slicing the chest with a dull knife. She was completely shocked and shocked when she received the message.
...****************...
"Yourhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Jihan shook her head trying to push away the memories of this afternoon that had broken her heart into pieces.
Currently, the clock shows at 23:55, where the activities in the city of Bogor are slowly completed and the streets begin to quiet.
“Ck. The wheel was turning, but not for everyone,” Jihan grinned as she wiped the tears flowing down her cheeks.
The night was late and gripping. What's more, Jihan is alone atop an old building that has been uninhabited for a long time. There was not the slightest fear that enveloped when he climbed one by one the stairs of the old building that was unkempt.
Without thinking long, Jihan climbed over a worn wall filled with moss with a height of 1 meter. He looked up at the sky that was almost without star bias.
“Even stars are reluctant to see me,” ruknya while laughing.
From the 11th floor of the old building, he could feel that if he dove later, he would never be able to survive. However, his passion to continue living was no longer there.
Slowly, Jihan closed her eyes and smiled as if this was her last smile in this life. Then he dropped his body down.
“HEI!!”
Aideen and Ezryl shouted as they grabbed onto Jihan's arms. Aideen held the right arm, while Ezryl held the left arm.
Jihan gasped and spontaneously opened her eyes. Her eyes widened. How not? As he opened his eyes, the world decayed, colors faded as he looked at the two handsome men's forms that grew clearer under the resounding moonlight.
The man on the right looks perfect in a grey suit, the white shirt with 2 buttons on it is left open with neatly-climbed black hair like the handsome CEO in the comics.
The man on the left is no less perfect. His face is very charming with brown comma hair that dances in the breeze, although in black clothes like a death angel in Korean dramas.
DEG DEG DEG.
“Hah? Death angel?!” Jihan shuddered with eyes that were back round. His sense of well-being is beginning to return. Instead of being fascinated by the good looks of the two men, she was more interested in looking around her and more focused on looking down. His legs were numb, his heart was frozen as if it was no longer functioning because it was hanging in the air.
“Let go of him!” pinta Aideen firmly.
“You let go, because I grabbed it first!” ezryl said he didn't want to lose.
“Ck. Who do you think you have the right to rule me?”
“I'm a grim reaper who can anytime”
“STOP!!! LOWER ME NOW!” yelling Jihan interrupts the quarrel between the two handsome men because of the goosebumps in the clouds.
Aideen and Ezryl flinched. They forget their main purpose.
The three men stepped on top of the old building earlier and faced each other.
"Who are you?!!" Ask Jihan. The long-haired, brown girl with yellow skin stood stiff as she looked at the two foreign men before her eyes.
“A-I don't understand this situation,” Jihan stammered, “a-are you guys ha-han-ghost?”
“I-“ Aideen and Ezryl speak simultaneously.
“You-“ growled Aideen and Ezryl were still talking simultaneously. They stared at each other sharply.
“Ugh! You guys are!” jihan complained that seeing the two men no one wanted to give up and continued to argue. His resentment had now overcome the fear that had previously enveloped him.
The two men stood firm and silently stared at Jihan.
“You!" Jihan pointed towards Ezryl using her index finger.
“I?” ezryl asked as he pointed towards himself.
“Iya.” The graceful face of Jihan covered in bangs nodded in agreement.
“Ezryl, call. The angel of death assigned to take your life,” Ezryl bowed to introduce himself.
“Angel of death?" Jihan rounded her eyes. "When should I die? Why am I still alive? Then, why are you here?!” scatter Jihan while approaching Ezryl and staring intently into Ezryl's eyeball.
GLUC!
Ezryl swallowed. His face paled, though the face of the angel of death should be pale. It's just that, at the moment he's a little shudder because Jihan was looking for him.
“Stop! Don't get too close,” Aideen put her hand between Jihan and Ezryl as a barrier.
Ezryl frowned as he stared at Aideen as if asking what the intent of his words and actions were.
“She'll be my wife!" Aideen. The man spontaneously revealed his goal while staring intently at Ezryl.
Ezryl rolled his eyes. He was really upset by Aideen's indistinct behavior. “Ck. Wife?”
“Wife?” Jihan was trying to digest Aideen's words that she couldn't understand at all.
“Yes. You're the only one who can help me,” Aideen stared at Jihan. The man showed a clear face.
“Wife? Helping out? Please, I really don't understand this situation. And you guys, you're not human like me are you?” scar Jihan pointed and looked at Aideen and Ezryl.
“Let me explain,” said Ezryl, “should, your death today at 12:59, when you dove off the 11th floor. But-“ Ezryl fell silent and did not continue his talk.
“But?” Ask Jihan curiously.
“I can't bear to take your life. At least, you should be happy before you leave this world,” Ezryl replied in a heavy tone, “a-I also died of bu-suicide at the age of 20. That is why I am now cursed by a God and become a Death Angel. And I don't want you to feel the same way as me."
Jihan slammed. He was surprised to hear Ezryl's words that he thought were absurd.
“But, now the curse is changed.”
“Yes. I broke an important rule as an angel of death, letting you live, showing myself to you and touching you.”
Aideen and Jihan were silent. Not a word came out, there was a sound of leaves rustling in the wind breaking the silence on that cold night.
“What are the consequences?” ask Aideen to know. The man who had been curious since.
“In 1 year time, I have to find someone who sincerely loves me, otherwise, I will disappear for good.” Ezryl.
Aideen let out a long sigh while staring at the vast sky without a single star.
“How about you?” ask Ezryl to Aideen.
“I'm from the comic world Beloved Woman Handsome CEO. Aideen, it's a-“
“Aideen?! Handsome CEO Woman Handsome?! That you?!” Jihan cut Aideen's conversation with sparkling eyes.
“Cih! handsome CEO,” decih Ezryl at the same time. He folded both his hands on his chest and tried to listen to Aideen's story.
“Ya, it's me.” Aideen ignored Ezryl and remained focused towards Jihan. “Siang earlier, I got a mysterious box. In it there is a message that, the comic who made this comic died and can not continue the comic. If this comic is not advanced, then my body will disappear. Not just my body, but my world. B-”
“Then, what does Jihan have to do with your wife?” sela Ezryl's.
“For the continuity of the story, the box says Jihan's name. She should be my wife and give birth to at least a y-” child
“Minimal of a child? You think he's a child-making factory?!" ezryl protested.
“Hei! Can't you listen to my story first?” rutuk Aideen is upset.
Jihan chuckled at the two handsome men. From the beginning, they were like dogs and cats that never got along.
“You really fit if juxtaposed together,” kekeh Jihan.
“Hei!” shouted Aideen and Ezryl simultaneously.
“See!" Jihan's laughter grew louder.
The girl who laughed without any burden was enough to make Aideen and Ezryl fascinated when they saw her. The eyes of the two men twinkled, unconsciously the corner of their lips curved and produced a sweet smile that could sedate anyone who saw it.
The wind gently swept through Jihan's long wavy hair and blew through the bangs that almost covered the poor girl's eyes. The tiny lips were red like strawberries with brown eyeballs that almost disappeared due to laughter.
“Very beautiful,” hissing Aideen.
“Beating the moon,” Inner Ezryl at the same time.
“I'm sorry, you guys are too funny,” Jihan holds her stomach trying to stop laughing.
“Give me time to think. I'll decide who I choose.” Added.
“Good. If you don't mind, come with me to the comic world. Just to look around,” said Aideen.
“Can we?” ask Jihan curiously.
“Sure, but it has to be with me. So the rules that I read when to the real world.”
“How about me, Han?” ezryl asked softly as if he had no chance to be with Jihan.
“Of course, I will try to coexist with you. You can follow me anywhere-“
“Except toilet and mattress!” cut Aideen sounded disapproving of Jihan's statement.
“You have what problem, anyway?” tanya Ezryl is upset, “you always just cut the conversation!”
Aideen turned her face away and whistled as she did not want to listen to Ezryl.
“Already. It's been. It's late, I'm tired and need a break,” Jihan broke the dispute Ezryl and Aideen.
“I'll take you home,” said Ezryl.
“Let ak-“ argue Aideen.
“Tomorrow you'll have a full day with it,” cut Ezryl.
Aideen raised her eyebrows side by side as a ‘ya’ gesture.
“Tomorrow, I'll pick you up at 8 am,” Aideen told Jihan.
“Good.” Reply Jihan while smiling.
Aideen plucked her finger.
Ctek!
A teleportation door to another world appeared.
“If you touch it even for a moment, I kill you!” threaten Aideen to Ezryl while entering the teleportation door.
“Ending someone's life? Hey, that's my job, you're the one I should kill first,” Ezryl gave a slanted grin.
Aideen just stared at him sharply and turned her body around.
Sett!
The teleportation door was closed,
Jihan stunned. This was the first time he had seen something that usually only existed in the comic world.
Ezryl and Jihan.
“Come,” Jihan takes Ezryl down the stairs.
“Street?” Ask Ezryl.
“Iya, when to fly?”
“Oyour eyes,” pinta Ezryl with a smile.
“Hah?” Jihan gawking, “Alright, I'll close my eyes.”
Shuhhh!
“Open your eyes,” says Ezryl again.
Slowly Jihan opened her eyes and looked around. He's surprised not to be a bitch. The events that he had previously seen only existed in a fantasy world, now happened to him. How not? He was on top of an old building that was 600 meters from his contract, now he has been rented for just seconds?
“Crazy! Is this me dreaming, or am I dead?” ask Jihan not to believe it.
“Sleep if you want to dream, but you have to stay alive,” Ezryl smiled sweetly, very sweetly.
Hmh! Which woman will not fall for the sweet smile of the angel of death!
“If I could polyandry,” thought Jihan while smiling to myself.
