- Jins POV -
Its been a few weeks and I still haven't made Irene aware that I must leave.
Feeling my powers or ablites weaken as the weeks pass by using them feels more like a gamble
They'll either work in my favor
Or not work at all.
"Oppa can you summon up some sugar I forgot to get some I'm sorry" Irene asked sneaking up behinde me an wrapping her arms around me
I don't know if ill be able to summon anything.
"Oh....uh....okay" hesitantly I unravled her grip around me and took a step back
Focusing really hard. I tried to summon up sugar but nothing appeared, focusing even harder I tried to summon just one bag of sugar
And there was still
Nothing.
"Jin?" She asked looking at me then at the counter top
"Is everything okay?" Looking concerned I hid my embarrassment from her. Keeping my head down I sighed
"Irene recently....my abilities have been sort of disappearing" her hands Suddnely fell to her sides.
"Is that bad?" She then asked looking really worried
Shaking my head in response I contemplated my next words very carefully
"It just means I'll have to go back to hell" trying my best to keep a calm tone it didnt water down any factors about me going back
"Back to hell?......For how long, your gonna come back right??? How long do I need to wait?!?....... I can wait!" Suddnely she latched herself onto me hugging me tighter then she ever has before.
"I don't know" I said in response
"What do you mean you don't know?!" Pushing me away she started wiping away the forming tears in her eyes
"What a year?! 2 years?! 10 years?!" She said a tense fearfulness in her voice
"I don't know" I said weakly feeling that whatever id say next to try and sooth the situation would be oblivious To her.
Her tears began drenching her sleeve and I watched her sob in a way ive never seen her before.
"Irene, I promised you id never leave you and I don't intend to break that." Raising her face from the palm of her hands her tear stained face looked up at mine
"But your breaking me right now" the power of her words had this whaling affect on me.
Clenching my fist the tears I rarely shed began pouring out.
"I want to be with you forever Irene" I Told her pulling her back into a hug
"Its what I wanted more then anything, more then my ablites or existence" trying to comfort her I spoke from the heart Irene gave me.
"I don't want to break you, you've made me whole and I only wanted you to feel the same. But I have to go back Irene or else.......... Your world won't be safe" I could feel her tears soaking my shirt and the heart shattering sounds of her sobs haunted me
"Jin you are my world!!!" She wailed.
Standing in the back of her kitchen
Clinging onto eachother
We cried in the comfort of one amothers arms
"A month, 1 month, just a month spend one more with me Jin... Can you stay with me for just another month?" Looking down at her red face and puffy eyes.
The soild fact that if we were to agree to a time frame id have to fully accept having to leaving you as our reality
Instead of believing in a delusion.
A month
Just another month
No amount of time will ever be enough
But just being with eachother
Loving one another this way
Is enough.
- Sehuns POV -
"what do you have for me?" I asked the spirit I sent to eavesdrop on Irene shop
"The demons powers, they're weakening hes told the girl" pleased with the knowing hes losing his powers I can finally use this dagger.
"Anything else?" I asked hungry for more information that I could use to my advantage
"No, I left before he could notice me" thanking the spirit it left disappearing into the empty space.
Over the course of a few days I observed the coffee shop and their movements
They seemd to close up and go somehwere everyday. From going to the movies, the park, and places like a water park and festivals they always seemed to be on the move.
"Oi you" whispering to a spirit on the street I quickly realized it was a spirit I had talked to and befriended before
"Seulgi? What are you doing here?! all the way in seoul?!" Shocked to see her recalling the last time I spoken to her was in me and Irenes high school days.
She was a ghost I meet walking home one-day
We were really close.
"I was just um......wandering" she replied blandly
"Well since your just wandering could you do me a favor?" I asked pulling her aside into an empty ally way
She seemed to pace a bit thinking it over.
"I guess.....anything for you sehun" relived she agreed. I quicky explained to her what she needed to do
"So just listen in for what the two of them will be doing this week okay?" Nodding her head letting me know she understood, she then made her way through me and to the coffee shop.
- Seulgis POV -
"Oi you" trying my best not to panic from being noticed. I calmly turned to face him
Sehun, the human & the ghost (me) who held a onsided love.
He called out my name leaving me baffeled he even remembered me.
After I died sehun was the first human I meet who could see and communicate with me
He was very kind
Having a flashback to when I first meet him. I found it hard to belive our eyes had meet
That our eyes met cause he could see me even though I was a ghost who couldn't go to heaven nor hell because
I was A lost soul they'd say
He was always kind to me and I did my best to return the kindness.
After awkwardly agreeing to help him he explained what he needed me to do.
And to no surprise
It was related to Irene.
Even in highschool he had me listen in on irene, he really loves her and even though I'm just a ghost without a soul
I could still feel the pain of a heart aching in angony.
How can I say no when I love him? Eavesdropping is all I can do for him as a ghost
He could never love me
And its true
We could never be anything.
