Ray, you're a ghost! (II)

"Let'soooooooooo!"

The cry of the Typhoon echoed loudly and straightforwardly on the edge of the cliff top that he had just conquered. His lofty posture seemed breathless, but both of his hands clenched as his screams exploded. As if he wanted to show that he would be able to subdue anything that blocked the road with all the abilities he had. And indeed, the cliff is not easy to pass. The typhoon narrowly narrowed down several times on its way up.

'If there were no rope, maybe my life had drifted many times.' Inner Typhoon while staring at the climbing rope that just saved his life once again.

The advice of the young man who lent him this rope was a little forgotten when the Typhoon was about to reach the top. The crack on the cliff wall looked so sturdy, but it was completely unable to withstand the weight of his body. The crack was immediately shattered after his body rested there.

But the distance was too far for Typhoon to simply thank the young man now, and apparently, the young man was not even visible from his nose.

'Ah, the important peak first. Behind the new search boy' thought the Typhoon again while packing the rope and wrapping it around his body.

The dark began to greet the earth with an increasingly piercing cold, but the Typhoon did not care. His steps were light towards the top. Every day that Mother died, this was all she could do. The fight that took the lives of several people after Mother's funeral has completely blocked her move home...

I thought he wouldn't follow. Angry, hurt, sad, or whatever he felt because of my words back then and finally, my world will be calm again without his chatter that does not know the time and place. But it turns out my guess was wrong.

Rayna was still behind. Although there was a new development of every attitude, but he did not seem to want to go away from me. Rather amused actually when he saw he acted as if walking in an uncertain direction so as not to look like he was following, although when I stopped, he would also stop even though it was a little far away. It had already been 2 days since yesterday's events, and apparently, he still insisted on maintaining his attitude.

'Basic ghost *****!' I thought as I leaned back against the tree.

"YOU ARE THE ONE THAT *****!!!"

Eh?!

"*Arborite???"

"Still remember my voice apparently*..."

Unknowingly, my laughter broke out without being able to be restrained. This head has become a kind of phone apparently...

"You have to help that girl, Kay. If you leave it like that, his soul will be destroyed. The world you live in is not the right place for her."

Eh?!

"Will you explain what you're saying further or should I googling, Rite?"

As if responding to my joke, ripples formed in the air as the figure of the young man gondrong emerged from nothingness and immediately snapped at my head.

"About dong, Old Man!" my sergeant stroked the top of his head that was throbbing pain from his hand just now.

That handsome face was webbed with aggravation that was clearly imprinted on those two sharp eyes.

"You think this is a joke, Kay? You think that thing about the living and dead realms is just a silly joke???"

Yet somehow the current aura of Arborite rage did not present the same feeling of fear as before.

I just feel tired of all this...

q

"No, Rite. I just don't know what to do about this. For most of my age, I lived with shadows, whispers and things that only I could see and hear..."

My mind is confused and I know that my soul is so tired, but no matter how much burden I feel, no one else will ever be able to understand. Often they just smile understandably or even get away with fear when they see me talking to the air. They were afraid that I was crazy and might attack or even hurt them.

"All these things are getting stronger and so it's like now because you put this tattoo on my body. And now you're asking if I consider this a joke??? You're still sane, aren't you, Rite? Too long living as a curious spirit does not make you crazy, right??!" tukasku.

The anger is really turbulent now and starts to cause a sense of heat that swirls in the stomach area and then begins to spread throughout the body. I hate this condition. I felt cornered into a very ridiculous situation with no way out or even the slightest explanation so that I knew what to do to unravel all this complexity.

"Eh, be careful what you do, Kay." said Arborite as she slowly retreated away from me. Maybe he thought that the slum boy in front of him had gone mad.

My anger is really rising now. Shook my mind with a membrane of black clouds that seemed to crackle with a lightning charge that was ready to strike. The stifled breath felt even heavier now as my body shivered as I tried my hardest to hold back.

"Eh. uh. uh.. Kay, calm down. I'm..."

I no longer ignore the absurd Arborite weak words. I just want to hurt someone right now.

"Kay.. Kay.. Stop, I'm sorry I slapped you yesterday. Don't fight..."

Eh??!

The voice of the urgent woman stopped my fierce footsteps. Rayna, run over with a worried look on her face. But Arborite blocked his steps.

"Don't touch her, lady!"

"Who are you?! Kay?"

Seeing Arborite hold her steps and stop Rayna's every struggle as she was about to approach me, rekindled a rage in the chest.

"Take your hands off him, Rite.or I won't hesitate anymore..."

"Listen to yourself. You've even threatened me now." he replied slowly, but still did not release his hand from Rayna.

"You really forced me, Rite..."

"Forcing your head! Let's see your body now! This girl's spirit will be destroyed when your body touches it!!!"

The Arborite shout made me stop, and what greeted my eyes completely dispelled the spirit.

"Fruit of the power of Anger, the form of black fire that is able to destroy the spirit, that covers your body now" he said.

Eh?!

My body looks like a chicken thief who was judged by the masses by being doused in gasoline and then burned, only the difference is, the fire that envelops my body is blackish red.

"Please calm yourself first. Your girlfriend can't see the fire, but I'm sure you can... And it's dangerous for both of us."

'Satan, there's more to my body'

The thoughts and fears that ran through my head made me feel more tired. The anger disappeared as quickly as he arrived, changing into such emptiness and regret...

'Duh Gusti's... Kula kedah pripun...' (Duh Gusti's... I have to how)

I went back to the doldrums. All of this makes no sense. I didn't even react when Rayna ran over when the Arborite let go.

"Kay, Kay? You're not papa, are you?" he said while crouching in front of me. The touch of his hand was gentle when he tried to raise my bowed face listless, and when our eyes were fixed, it was only a concern that appeared there.

"I'm not papa, Ray." I said as I tried to let go of his hand.

And not to mention that I can determine what to do now, Rayna's voice is already clanging violently against the Arborite.

"Who are you? I love bully people!"

Eh?!

Arborite looked at me in disbelief as Rayna had already nagged a short length at her and when our eyes met, without being able to resist my laughter exploded.
