Reyhan smiled gently, extending one of his hands to invite Clara back. "Let's go home. I'm right here."
Slowly Clara stepped in doubtfully. Her gaze was still empty but this girl kept moving her legs trying to get close to Reyhan.
With her hand still holding back the pain in her chest, Arion tried to grab Clara with her other hand.
"No, no, no Clara! Not again! You're mine! Don't listen to him!" Crackle Arion with the remaining traces of tears that are still visible.
All the dreams he had built collapsed just like that, the scenery around him suddenly disappeared like fog, leaving behind grass and only white scenery around him.
It's all ruined. Clara chooses to get up and go with the man Arion hates the most for taking the girl from him.
Arion looked at Clara who slowly raised her hand about to grab the damn man's hand. Clara leaves Arion and leaves with Reyhan.
There's nothing left. Arion wept bitterly with both hands propping up on the ground. His only hope has been lost. And it's all over.
What am I going to do now.I have to wait for many more years. How if–
"Arion," the soft voice called out his familiar name.
Arion's cry came to a halt right then and there after hearing the beloved voice calling out to him. As fast as lightning Arion looked up at the girl before him in disbelief. At first glance he glanced at Reyhan who was just silently watching the two.
Is this an illusion? Or did Clara come back to him? Clara rejects Reyhan and returns to Arion?
Arion's eyes were perfectly rounded with his mouth agape. He does not believe what he sees.
Clara smiled gently at the clingy Arion, this girl had even crouched down, aligning her height with Arion who was still resting on the ground.
Arion looked at Clara confused, once in a while he was still hiccupping, his face was chaotic with tears still clearly visible. The girl was fully aware but why did she even come back and smile so gently?
"I remember Arion. I remember everything ... I .. I like you too."
Instantly Arion pulls Clara in his arms and hugs the girl tightly. Arion was crying like that, but his cry now was a happy cry. The person he loved for years now remembers him.

Clara opened her eyes slowly, she still blinked slowly a few times to get used to the dazzling light in her eyes.
Clara turned her head weakly, looking at the people who looked worried at her.
Leo, Reyhan and the others smiled with relief as the girl who lay down almost a week has now opened her eyes.
"Clara .. Clara, honey ... are you okay?" harumi asked happily, her tears not dripping because she was worried Clara would not wake up again.
Leo tried to channel his energy gently, so that Clara could recover faster. Sleeping for that long will make his body completely limp.
And apparently, that happiness doesn't last long. The atmosphere was tense again as Arion now appeared right in front of Clara's bed.
Leo is silent, but Harumi stands up and gets angry with Arion's various tantrums, but Harumi is unable to touch the handsome ghost.
Ryo who was only silent because he could not see but could feel the presence of the delicate creature, while Reyhan did not understand the situation because the blonde man could not see or feel anything.
"Harumi, calm down" said Leo.
There is no rebuttal. Harumi was silent with the restraining anger, both her hands clenched tightly.
"I ... am fine. Uncle," he argued subtly. Then push slowly the hand of Leo who wants to help him.
Harumi sits back in Clara's bed and tries to convince Clara to lie down again. "Clara, where are you going? you're still sick. Go to sleep," Harumi said.
"Sorry Ma, I want to talk to Arion."
"But–"
"Ma .. please." Clara begged with pity, she knew her body was crumbling and powerless, but she had to meet the handsome, chaotic-looking ghost.
Clara stood up slowly and stepped closer to Arion. Not yet he reached the place, Clara fell down with a sitting position.
A worried Arion immediately approached Clara and touched the girl's shoulder. Help her get up, but Clara chooses to stay seated.
Harumi and the others were also about to run towards Clara but Leo did not allow it. Leo knew Clara had to talk to Arion.
"Are you okay, Clara?" ask Arion worried.
Clara smiled at the ghost. "Tumben you didn't call me baby? I miss that call" said Clara teasing Arion.
Arion, who had been stunned, now sighed softly and smiled small. "of course. Honey ... are you okay?" arion asked with a smile that only returned with the best smile by Clara.
"It's nothing with what you've been through all this time. What about you? Are you all right?" ask Clara worried. Arion smiled bitterly.
Clara moved her hand, grabbed Arion's cheek and stroked it gently. While all the ghosts are so scary to Clara, this ghost manages to steal her heart with an unreasonable liking.
It was quite excruciating, but now Clara knows why.
"I'm sorry I couldn't recognize you in the first place. Why did you choose the hard way to make me remember you, hm?"
Arion still silently looked at Clara lekat. The handsome ghost simply closed his eyes and cupped Clara's hand that was on his cheek, feeling the warmth of the touch.
"Why did you torture yourself just for me?" ask Clara again.
"I'm sorry" she gripped Clara's hand, which was still on her cheek.
Clara shook her head with a gentle smile.
"I'm the one who should apologize to you for not knowing you in the first place. If I had understood it was you, it wouldn't be like this."
"You know I love you so much, don't you, honey?" ask Arion worried.
Clara only chuckles at Arion's childlike behavior. "I knew. I know so well."
"I'm always happy with you, playing with you, you protecting me when I'm scared. And you know what, I like you too?" ask Clara. But Arion was silent so sad.
"Because of that .." Now Clara's hands cupped Arion's face. "I want you to be happy. You should have been happy eight years ago, but you're still here suffering because of me. I don't want to."
Tears that Clara had been holding back now escaped without defense. Seeing Arion struggling alone until this second, leaving a pain in Clara's heart. "I want you to be happy for me too, Arion."
Arion looked at Clara so sadly. This handsome ghost came back crying looking at Clara who looked sad for him.
Arion stiffened his jaw. The next second he pulled Clara's body and hugged her tightly.
