Ghost Love Story's
CHAPTER 36 ~ Who's Axel ? ~

Raihan tells Athena about his dream of meeting Raihanna. Raihan had known Athena in the dream. Raihanna wants Raihan to get to know Athena. Raihanna wants Raihan to be happy with Athena.

"You're a good girl and we're the same. We both have someone in our hearts" Raihan said, staring at Athena.

Athena just looked down, Raihan looked at the pensive girl.

"Hey, what do you think?" asked Raihan with a smile.

"It's okay, Sis" said Athena.

"You're sad that you can't be happy with Axel?" ask Raihan.

"hee.. Raihan why do you know his name?" ask Athena.

"He introduced himself and asked me to take care of you. You want?" raihan said with a smile.

"Thank you sister but don't" Athena said with a laugh.

"I knew you'd answer that. As I said earlier, we are the same and there is no intention to shift their position in our hearts even though we cannot be together" Raihan explained.

"Yes, but Brother, if Brother Raihanna wants brother to continue life without him. Raihanna's sister will be sad if you don't try to move on and be happy with another girl. Try to open your heart to make Raihanna happy" said Athena.

"Can you?" asked Raihan with a smile.

"I can't, I tried but failed. I don't want to try anymore" Athena said.

"Maybe you picked the wrong person? Why not try again. I think he also wants you to be happy with other men" Raihan said.

"No, because he has a brother. I can still meet him. Different from Raihanna's sister" said Athena.

"Alright, I'll try even if I'm not sure" Raihan said with a smile.

"Sister, I have to go home. I'm glad you can get together with your family again. Raihanna's sister would be happy too. Now that my business is in order, I have to go home" said Athena.

"I'll take you" said Raihan.

"No, I can go home by myself" said Athena.

"I'll take you to the village road. This beautiful girl on the hills can be dangerous" said Raihan scared while laughing.

"All right then until the village road" said Athena agreed.

Athena was alone with Raihan's parents who decided to stay there. Raisa hugged Athena tightly, they and their family were very grateful to the girl.

Although it was hard to let the girl go home by herself, they finally let Athena go home. Raihan leads Athena up the village road.

"Sorry to trouble you" said Raihan.

"No brother, consider it a walk. Big brother writing his novel I am proud to be acquainted with a famous author" said Athena proud.

"I'm going to want to give you a surprise, I hope by then you already have someone next to you" Raihan said.

Athena simply smiled, the girl did not want to promise anything about it at all. They split up and Athens continued on its way to the village center to reach public transport.

Athena waited for public transport that could take her downtown. While waiting for the girl to sit in a stall and buy a soft drink.

"Sister from the city?" ask the waitress girl.

"Yes, is it still a long time waiting for transportation to get to the city?" ask Athena.

"Lumayan lama kak, can be a new afternoon come" said the girl

"After that there is no public transport anymore?" asked Athena, getting anxious.

"There is, but it's a little bit later" said the girl.

Athena was anxious, the girl never made it this far until she came home late at night. Now he just pray that his public transportation quickly comes until it is not too late to get home.

"Sister college?" asked the girl to throw out Athena's daydream.

"Not yet, it's still class XII" Athena said.

"Oh, the style of city girls is different. It looks more mature" said the girl.

"Well old means?" ask Athena.

"No, no sister, not that, very stylish and looks mature" said the girl again.

"Then anyway? I'm notoriously sloppy. Where maybe the careless girl looks mature" said Athena.

The girl laughed, and they met each other. Hani, the girl's name shows a picture of her boyfriend who is in college in the city.

"This is my brother, his name is Hardy. Soon it will be the fifth semester at an elite private university in the city" he said, showing photos on his mobile phone.

Athena was shocked to the end without realizing it, taking the phone from Hani's hand by force.

"What's his name?" ask Athena again.

"Hardy. He used to live there. The shop belonged to his uncle. Brother Hardy helped there from childhood to High School. While riding in class XI, Hardy moved to the city and lived alone there" the girl said.

"Now you come back here often?" ask Athena.

"Udah is rarely my brother. I almost never go home again" said Hani.

"You don't want to see her again?" ask Athena.

"Want Sister, but how else does she not go home" replied Hani.

"When's the last time he came home?" ask Athena.

"About two years ago. He said he wanted to go to university so he would not go home until graduation" explained Hani with a sad face.

"How far is your relationship? I'm sorry if I ask you something so personal" Athena asked.

"It's okay, brother, we are also dating is not strange. Brother Hardy is nice. At least he just kissed me" said Hani.

"Kiss Hani? She loves Hani so much?" ask Athena.

Hana nodded.

"May I ask for a picture of him, maybe I can find him in town?" ask Athena.

"By Kak, I send the same brother yes" said the girl.

Hani also sent me some photos of Hardy. Hani is thrilled when she hears Athena wants to help her find Hardy.

"When you meet, what would Hani want to ask?" said Athena.

"When to go home and when to marry Hani?" ask Hani.

"He promised to marry Hani?" ask Athena.

"Yes, Brother. After graduation he said he was going to marry Hani. But Hani is a bit unsure" said Hani.

"Last time it was a bit strange attitude, people here said it was like a multiple personality" said Hani.

"WHAT? Double personality?" athena was not sure of Hani's words.

"Yes, Brother. His attitude likes to change. Sometimes good sometimes. Sometimes friendly and affectionate with Hani but sometimes indifferent to Hani. That's why people say he's a multiple personality. His uncle likes to be confused. Sometimes diligent, sometimes lazy to help. And also sometimes pinter sometimes ordinary" explained Hani at length.

"You know what university he went to?" ask Athena.

"Tau sis, ntar Hani noted for sister Athena yes" said Hani.

Athena stared at the photos Hani had sent her. The girl looked at Hani who was writing down the name of the university where Hardy attended.

"Hani loves her so much?" ask Athena.

"Yes, Brother. Brother Hardy is the first and last love for Hani" Hani said with a smile.

"He loves Hani too?" ask Athena.

"Yes, he promised after graduation that he would marry Hani and bring Hani to the city" said Hani.

Athena looked at the photo that Hani had sent her. It did not feel like it was late afternoon, they were waiting for public transportation to get to the city. Hani asks for Athena's mobile number. They also exchanged mobile numbers.

Athena boarded a public transport that would take her back to the city. The girl looked at the smiling Hani while waving her hands at him. The girl hopes that Athena can find Hardy and give Hardy news to him.

"How can I tell if the man she was waiting for has died?" whispered the heart of Athena.

Without feeling her tears flowing, the girl was very sad to see the sincerity of Hani's love. Waiting for his first love so faithfully. Hani told me that there were many men who wanted to propose to the sweet girl.

But she remains waiting for her first love to be lost without news.

"In this village girls my age are married, brother, or at least have started to be targeted by people" said Hani.

"But isn't the Marriage Act prohibiting marriage at a young age?" said Athena.

"Here where understand such things, sister, finished High School is immediately married, while the end of Junior High has begun to propose. But Hani still refused because Hani wanted to wait for Hardy's promise" said the innocent girl.

Athena immediately wiped away her tears. Athens does not want to be the attention of people in public transportation such as inter-provincial buses but with a size that is not too large.

Once at home Athena unwinded by soaking in the bathtub. His head looked up at the bathroom ceiling. Her tears flowed to her side of her eyes. The girl was tired and eventually fell asleep.

"Darling, let's wake up it's been a turn of time. Get up, don't sleep in the shower" Axel said.

Athena was shocked to instantly cover her body.

"What is my brother doing here?" yell Athena.

"I called you from earlier but you just kept quiet. Didn't you know that I was so worried about seeing your expression since in the village" said Axel.

"Reason, get out quick. It's not polite to go into a girl's bathroom. Do you want to look, huh?" aggrieved Athena shouted Axel dared to enter while he was in the bathroom.

"Dear, I didn't see anything. I just want to wake you up. You overslept I'm afraid you could drown because of oversleptness" said with a worried look on his face.

"Yes there come out first, Athena will come out" said Athena expelled Axel.

Axel obeyed Athena, the man patiently waiting in the room. As Athena exited the room Axel immediately smiled welcome but Athena's gaze was not at all friendly. Athena looks upset at Axel. The man silently waited for Athena to explain her anger.

"Did Brother Axel support me with Brother Raihan? You guys, Axel and Raihanna's sister intend to match me up with him?" ask Athena.

"He's Athena's good man, he can be your protector. He is also a loving and wise man, he can guide you" Axel explained like a suspect.

"Where about Axel? Brother won't protect me anymore? Don't you want to guide me anymore?" ask Athena.

"But she's real Athena, she's there and ready at all times to protect you. I can't do that, I love you but I can't protect you. It hurt me a lot" Axel said.

"Well if you don't want to be hurt again, don't want to worry about me going there far" said Athena who later regretted it.

When he saw Axel down the girl immediately grasped Axel's hand tightly. The man was astonished by Athena's attitude. The girl's eyes were glazed.

"Why?" ask Axel.

"I kicked you out again" said the girl, tightening her hand.

"Holding your hand is meaningless. I can still go if I want to" Axel smiled.

Athena hugged Axel, the man smiled again.

"Hugging me also can't stop me if I want to leave" Axel said with a smile.

"Don't go" said Athena at last.

"These words can stop me from leaving" Axel said as he cupped Athena's face.

"Don't see him, don't remember him. Forget her, don't go back to her" Athena said in tears.

"What do you mean Athena?" ask Axel astonished.

"You followed me to the village, didn't you? You heard my conversation with that girl, right?" ask Athena.

Axel nodded, immediately Athena took off her embrace and picked up the phone on her study table. Open the cell phone gallery and show the man. Axel was shocked when he saw the photos stored on Athena's phone.

"Who is this?" axel asked unsure of what he saw.

"That's Axel's sister, right? The man who was with Hani was Axel's sister right?" asked Athena with tears flowing.

"He's waiting for Brother, he's faithfully waiting for Brother. He wants to take a big brother's promise to marry him. Forget him, don't remember him. Don't remember it anymore" Athena pleaded.

Axel was still silent to see the many photos of himself along with a girl named Hani. Axel looked at the crying Athena, with a faint look. His heart was shaken unexpectedly if it used to have someone he loved.

"I don't remember it at all. Athena, I'm not going to love anyone but you" Axel said, trying to convince Athena.

The girl was crying in Axel's arms.

"Where will you be when you remember him again. Brother will definitely come back to love her" said Athena hoarsely.

"Then I better not remember who I am. I don't care who I am, let me forget forever as long as it keeps me in love with you" Axel said, replying to Athena's tight embrace.

"Sister's name is actually Hardy but how come you can wear Axel's uniform?" ask Athena.

"I don't care anymore my name is Axel or Hardy which is important I want to stay here with you" Axel said.

"But what about my promise to Hani, she must be waiting for news from me. I know you're dead, it's impossible to tell such news while I don't know where sister's grave is" Athena said.

"Don't think about him, just say you haven't gotten a clue about where I am" Axel said.

"There's something strange about Hani's story. He said Hardy's attitude was like having a dual personality, when I heard that I remembered the words of the TU sir. Axel Cullen also has a double personality, right? Are Hardy and Axel Cullen the same person?" ask Athena.

Athena began to feel strange after recalling the words of Hani and Mr. TU. The girl wants to re-examine the identity of Axel or Hardy.
