Ghost Dusk
Chapter 12 - Waiting for Dusk

...༻◈༺...

Orange smoke certainly could not answer Julie's question. He just flew quickly around the girl. What he did was successful in making Julie giggle happily.

"Tomorrow I'll just ask June, right away" Julie said with a smile. He immediately closed the window.

On the other hand, Axton went to see Fred. Unmitigated, he went straight to the man's house.

Bruk!

Axton slams down Fred's door. His steps came to a halt as he watched the state of Fred's house fall apart. The situation inside the house was like it had just been hit by an earthquake. Where things seem scattered in all directions.

Axton tried to ignore the strangeness he saw. He was in a hurry to find Fred.

"Fred!" screeched Axton with a face full of anger. He checked the room in the house. Until he finally managed to find Fred in the bathroom. The man was still wearing full clothes.

"Basic fucker!" as if Axton was approaching Fred. He immediately gripped the collar of the man's shirt.

"What the fuck!" fred's forehead is furrowed deep.

"How dare you try to rape my sister! Don't expect us to be business partners again!" threaten Axton firmly.

"You think I'm afraid of that?! You should be worried you won't be able to work with a talented person like me!" reply Fred. "Again, your sister seems cursed. Maybe that's the reason why no man wants to be with her!" he added.

"Damn it!" Fred who heard the growl. A bogem he withered into Fred's face. His attack made the blond-haired man stagger and fall to the floor.

"I'm not lying! You saw for yourself how my house is, right? It's all because of Julie!" fred blames everything on Julie.

"Hey! Why are you acting like a victim! Here is my sister who was the victim! Don't expect me to let you go! My mom's reporting you to the police!" axton said as he pointed his index finger at Fred's face.

"Just do what you want!" challenge Fred. As if not afraid.

"Aarrayghhh!!!" Axton, who could not stand it, again threw a fist into Fred's face.

At the apartment, Sasha was preparing to go to the police station. Along with that, Julie came out of the room.

"Where are you going, Mom?" ask Julie.

"To the police station. I'll sue the man who nearly raped you!" answer Sasha.

Julie frowned. He held Sasha's hand. Then he said, "No, Mom. After all, he didn't have time to do it. Taking care of something like this will only make you bother. I'm doing fine. Really..."

"But..."

"Look at me! Do I look depressed? No don't you? Forget everything, Mom. I'm sure after this Fred won't bother me anymore" Julie said. Deliberately cutting Sasha's words.

"Are you sure you're okay?" Sasha. He noticed the expression Julie showed. He cannot argue himself. Julie looks really fine.

"Yes." Yeah." Julie smiled gently. "I always wonder why your attention is so excessive. But honestly, I'm grateful to have a family like yours" she said, hugging Sasha.

"Julie..." Sasha was full of Julie's words. Tears accidentally fell on her cheeks.

"Geez, why are you crying, Mom?" Julie, conscious of her mother crying, slowly took off her embrace.

"It's okay. I'm just glad to hear you say that" Sasha said, wiping away tears on her face.

...***...

One day is gone. Julie works like a normal day. Work is quite capable of forgetting the bad incident at Fred's house yesterday.

Julie keeps thinking about everything about June. Especially about the many strange things that have happened to him.

The door suddenly knocked. Julie then let the man in. He is none other than Shane.

"Excuse me, Boss. I brought you the papers you had to sign," Shane said, putting some paper on Julie's desk.

"Thank you, Shane!" sahut Julie's. "And one more thing. Stop calling me boss! Just call Julie, okay?" he added that was immediately responded with a nod by Shane.

"Boss, about-"

"Shane.." cut Julie with a sharp look. He tries to warn Shane to stop calling him boss.

"I'm sorry, I mean Julie." Shane hurriedly fixes his call against Julie.

"Okay, now talk" Julie ordered.

"It's about our meeting with a VIP class client. They want a meeting in Los Angeles. What say?" shane.

"Then we have to go there. Because this is our golden opportunity to work with the upper class. This can be a big promotion for us. When do they want to have a meeting?"

"They want to meet on Thursday at dinner."

"That means two more days. Then you should get ready to leave tomorrow!"

"Me?" Shane astonishment. He pointed his hand to his own chest.

"Yes! You're my secretary. So you have to come along," responded Julie.

"Be-dating?" shane unconsciously downed his own saliva.

"Yes. Just the two of us." Julie's forehead is pursed. He was surprised to see Shane's reaction. The man's face suddenly reddened like a ripe tomato. I don't know what's on his mind. "Do you have a problem with that?" tanyanya.

"No! Of course not. I'll be ready soon." Shane reelagapan. He's misbehaving himself. The thought of going alone to Los Angeles with Julie already made her nervous to death. Shane even accidentally stumbles across the table.

"Shane, be careful!" julie was spontaneous. He was reflexively standing up because he wanted to help Shane. But the man stood alone. He looked so clumsy and hurried out of Julie's room.

"She's so funny" Julie commented, shaking her head. He immediately signed the file that Shane brought.

When the time showed at 04:00 p.m., Julie was done with all the work. He who should have gone home, chose to remain silent for a moment. Julie decided to go home when dusk came.

Outside the room, Shane was also still in place. He occasionally glanced at Julie's office door. Really, he felt very excited when he could get a chance to go alone with Julie.

"Shane, you're not coming home?" scold one of Shane's coworkers. He and the others seemed ready to go home.

"In a moment" said Shane.

"We go first." Some employees started going one by one. Seeing that many have come home, Shane finally went along. But her steps stopped when she realized that Julie had not yet left the room.

Shane took a long breath. He knocks on Julie's office door.

"Come in!" Julie's Word.

Shane then according. He came in and asked, "You're not coming home? All the employees have gone home."

"I'll be home soon. You go first" Julie replied.

Shane nodded. He then moved. But Shane secretly did not come home. Concerned, the man chose to wait in the lobby.

Meanwhile, dusk finally arrived. Julie sat straight up.

"You're still here? You're usually on the road at this hour?" the figure Julie was waiting for finally appeared. That figure was of course June!
