Followed by the Chaotic Creature
Those Who Can See Fine Creatures

I decided to go to my cousin's house. As soon as Aunt Yusi greeted me with a warm embrace.

"Why not tell me first if you want to play" he said.

I replied with a smile, "Willfully give me a surprise, Auntie "

Aunt Yusi, my mother's closest sister. It just so happens that my parents' house is around here, too.

"Have you gone home?" Ask. Aunt prepared food at the table for me.

"Already, Aunt. Before I came here, I stopped by the house. But it seems they are leaving." I replied.

"Oh yeah Auntie just remembered, said they wanted to go. There's a wedding invitation from your papa's friend." Aunt tells.

"Where is Angga's brother?" my many.

"As usual. He's at the reading cafe. Want Auntie to call you?"

"No need. Let Mely go there."

Angga reading cafe is located not far from his home. A simple two-story building located on the side of the road.

I pushed the glass door. I'm amazed. Different from the outside, the room inside looked spacious and neatly arranged. Bookshelves lined the walls while tables and chairs were stacked in the middle of the room and near the windows.

"Mails?" Angga was surprised to see me. Some of the books that were being arranged on the shelf fell to the floor. I approached him and helped him. Some female visitors and cafe employees noticed us.

They looked suspiciously at me.

Well, how else. Angas have always been popular among these girls. In addition to having a handsome face his attitude was also kind and friendly. Not to mention because of his hobby of reading it he has a broad insight into many things.

Many students come here to ask for help or just want to get close and chat with him.

A male employee who was also his friend approached us. He nudged while whispering, "Who? A boyfriend?"

"Hus! Ngawur! He's my brother." Angga introduced me to his partner. His friend smiled awkwardly.

"Mel, you go up first, I'll bring you a drink" he asked.

"Duh was afraid that his brother would be tempted by us-us. Directly told to go up." said one of his friends tease Angga.

"Who would have thought Angga can also be protective with girls." another chimpanzee.

I climbed the stairs leaving them. I still hear the sound of their laughter teasing Angga.

The room above is not much different. There is only a balcony facing the street.

I lay down on the chair while reading some books.

This is the first time I've come here. This read cafe, the business he ran with his partner recently. The location is quite strategic because it is close to the campus. So many students came.

Angga and I are both only children. We grew up and grew up together. Although we are only 2 years old, Angga has become a big brother figure that I can rely on. She's where I share my stories and grieve.

My eyes shifted around the room.

The walls of the room are painted in pastel colors giving the impression of calm. With antique lights hanging on the ceiling. While white wooden tables and chairs are neatly arranged in the middle of the room.

The wind blows softly from the balcony. The thin white cloth curtain swayed occasionally as the wind stroked it. Unknowingly I smiled enjoying this peaceful feeling.

When was the last time I felt this way? My routine keeps me busy every day. There is hardly any time to relax like this.

"Not work today?" yanyea.

"I'm truant." Reply relax. I sipped a vanilla latte in my cup.

"Hem? You skipped work just to see me? you miss me?" I almost choked on hearing his words. Angga glanced at me while smiling seductively.

"It looks like you're from somewhere." Angga leaned his body towards me. Real close. She stroked my hair. I don't know why my heart is beating.

"There's something stuck in your hair. You don't know?" he said it again while pulling something out of my hair. A leaf.

Angga returned to his seat. His view turned serious. While playing the leaf in his hand.

"So, where did you end up?" ask again.

I started telling you everything. Anga listened to him well. He nodded and drank his coffee.

"Good dong you get a free ride from 'them'. You can rarely take a ghost train. Consider it a vacation" his comments teased me.

"It's not free, brother! That's just pay for the original ticket. It's free even if I don't have a second interest. It's still a good thing I didn't faint in there." I protested.

"I'm just curious. Where did the train end?"

"If you're wondering why don't you try to ride it yourself."

"They never invited me" he said purportedly disappointed.

"Well, obviously not going to be invited. People like big brother bother when they're there. There are even those who run away to see brother."

He laughed, "You think I'm a ghost hunter?"

"More or less. I think it looks like that."

From the outside the Angga may appear normal. A friendly and sociable person. Good and approachable. No one knew that he was hiding the other side of himself. The talent he has brought from birth. Ability to talk to spirits.

Back when I didn't know, I thought he was a little weird because I often caught him talking to himself. If I ask him he just smiles.

"It's been a long time" he asked me what he meant. "It's not been a long time to tell me about this kind of problem"

Angga's words seemed to drop me from somewhere into the reality I was trying to get rid of. The fact that not only Angga, but I can also see 'them', invisible beings who share a place with us.

"Last time in High School, you experienced something like this" he said.

"After college I moved out of this place. Since then I haven't seen them." Maybe because of my busy college and college friends, I haven't seen them since.

"Not looking, Mel. We pretended not to see them. Lying to yourself by ignoring them."

"But that doesn't mean they're completely gone. The truth is they are still around us. "

"That kid thinks that just a little nuisance won't affect you. Therefore he must tease you to the point where you will not ignore him anymore."

"Even though it irritates me?"

Angga shrugged, "That proves his determination is strong enough to ask for your help. In fact, people who are 'sensitive' like us always attract their attention."

I was silent, thinking about all his words. Not wrong, it's just that I still have a hard time accepting the fact that I'm different.

This is not an ability I have acquired since birth. Except for the events I experienced 17 years ago. The events that almost took my life and took me in a long sleep.
