CHAPTER 5: ZON'S PERSPECTIVE
I guess it was a hapless day! I was fixing the books, organizing them one by one to where it belongs. When I heard Angela's voice, my Ex-girlfriend. My heart was racing too fast, and it was competing with my mind. Honestly, I felt uncomfortable and nervous!
"Haiist, not again!" I murmured.
I sighed and calmed down, I went down at the ladder and tried to avoid meeting them, but I was too late, yeah, I was too late because, the moment that my feet touched the floor, they were right in front of me, literally. And it was the vastly horrible day ever.
I was speechless when I saw her, I didn't know how will I supposed to approach her, and of course, also her new boyfriend.
Well, it was absolutely embarrassing, because while I was feeling worried about how will I approach them, they just walked pass by me, as if they have never seen me. It was actually okay, it was a relief because it will be more awkward for me if they tried to talk to me, but somehow, I felt unhappy, I miss talking with her, and it breaks my heart into pieces.
I looked behind me and I saw them holding hands.
"Wow, what a pain!" My heart whispered!
I tried to just ignore them, but I couldn't, instead, my eyes followed them until they were no longer at my sight. It was really heartbreaking.
"That's okay, Zon!" I sighed and smiled to continue the work I left.
Well, Angela and I knew each other since 2nd grade, she was my classmate.
She was just a sheepish young girl at that time. At the school, we were not actually talking to each other, even if we are in the same room.
But then I was not expecting that my father was his father's boss, her father became our new driver, and that was the reason why Angela and I became close to each other.
His father was going often at our house before, to picked me up and drove me to my school. He always brought Angela with him since we studied in the same place, my father was the one who pays for her studies. Since that, we always went to school together.
But it was kinda hard to talk to her before, I was always the one who was starting a conversation, but the more we talk, the more she became verbal.
The sheepish young girl I met, became different. She always talks a lot, as if she's not getting tired of telling me what happened to her, and what movies did she watch. And it was annoying, yes! Because she almost telling me the whole story, she's telling me the complete scenes about what happened in the movies.
Haiist, I remember how her face looks like when she tells a story, it's funny because she acts the scenes sometimes, the way how she narrated it was very cute, her eyes widen sometimes, and her hands' gesture is the best of all, it was moving from here to there while speaking. Haha, how cute!
"Haisst, Zon, what a lot of recollections to remember," I blushed while smiling, but then I frowned after. If we never broke up, I was wondering what more could we share together.
I never thought that we will end up our relationship just like that, I understand her, but I honestly, never seen it coming. Because we almost spent our lives together, and we had a great time, a lot.
Well, maybe, that was really what my fate is. If she was the one for me, then I'm sure that in the future she will come back. Well, I didn't want to assume so I just finished fixing the books as long as possible to forget her.
*********
I walked straight to my locker when the class was over and went to the library, where my comfort zone was.
I sat immediately on the couch and read some books. Well, it was peaceful, and comfortable, since no one was allowed to enter this room, I owned the key and the place.
While reading, I remembered Angela, and my heart twisted again as the scenario a while ago was flashing inside my memories. I breathed heavily and spread my whole body on the couch as I made an X in my feet. I put my book on my face and slowly closed my eyes. I wanted to rest and let my bitterness washed away, I wanted to forget them for a moment, so I went to sleep.
*******
I was in the middle of dreaming someone when I heard something moving at the room which woke me up. "Who's in there?" I yawned. And the moment that I removed my book at my face and glanced around the place, I saw a girl, and I sat down quickly in shock. I wonder how she entered here, I was sure that I locked the door awhile ago.
"Hey, what are you doing here? How did you get in?" I asked her, but she didn't answer back and continued inspecting my shelves which made me bent my brows.
"Seriously?" She pretends not to hear me?" I was surprised, wow! Grrr!
Since this wasn't a place for her, I stood up and inspected her while walking slowly towards her, and I could hear her murmurs about the author, wondering if they are not popular, and then, my eyes widen on how she thought about them, really?
"Who are not popular authors?" I coldly said in a mean way, and she immediately pointed out the books and told me that she was talking about them.
Surprisingly, that was the very first time that I met a person who didn't know that they were famous authors.
She was mute as she faced me, well, her eyes were color blue which attracts me. And I was silent in just a few seconds when I notice the color of her eyes. But I was annoyed when she only stared at me.
"What?" I said.
"You can see me?" She confusedly said
But it wasn't the case, it won't be comfortable for me if she can enter this place. So, I decided to hold her shoulders and guide her through the door but then, I was in great shock to found out that I couldn't touch her. Then I remembered a story about things like this.I glanced at her eyes again, I was still in shock, stunned and not saying any words, then her eyes caught my attention, it was blue, and they were twinkling like the stars.
"They're beautiful," my heart whispered. But I must not focused on her eyes.
"So, am I a ghost?" I heard her asked.
"Ghost? There is no such word like that here," I said.
"So, am I not dead?" She hurriedly asked me. I bent my brows when I felt something strange in her interrogation. She looked happy to ask about it.
"Dead?" I narrowed my eyes one her, " I believe your not," I added.
"But it's true your the only one who can see me and hear me which only proved that I'm a ghost," she whimpered. Well, if only she knows...!
"Well, it was because you don't belong here," I said.
"I don't belong here?" She whispered to herself, tssk, don't whisper if I can still hear you, I thought.
"What do you mean?" The girl asked and when I'm about to speak a word, she suddenly vanished like bubbles.
I couldn't believe my eyes, I couldn't get over what just happened, that I was glued to the spot where I was before.
"So, it's true? I whispered.
Chapter 6: Zon's PerspectiveI was still shocked by what happened. I couldn't believe that people like them really exist in this world.Well, I have read an article before, about people from another world.It was about a hundred years ago, when this world we live in, faces such a situation like this, that there are few people who can travel here. It was very preposterous to believe that, who could even imagine that aside from our world, there was another world that exists somewhere? Yet, it was genuine, but according to the article, only their souls can travel here. When they were asleep, their souls leave their bodies and started wandering here. But not all people could travel in here, only a few of them.It was also actually written in our history, but as time passes by, they have forgotten about it, because no one has experienced such circumstances like it after a hundred years.
Chapter 7: Zon's Perspective I took a deep breath and went closer to her, "You came back?" I said but I guessed, she didn't hear me."I didn't expect that you can actually go back..." I hesitated when I saw her eyes, it's swollen, and she was still tearing up, and she wiped it secretly. And then I noticed some bruises on her arms, I looked at her, and then she rapidly hid her hands at her back. I wonder what happened to her? I thought as I stared at her."Are you okay?" I asked as I looked at her eyes again, to examine her emotion, but what happened next was something so unprecedented for me, my heart twisted promptly, because of her eyes; her eyes implied too much suffering, I could feel it, her emotions and her pain, they were deep, but why? "Who are you?" My mind whispered. What's happening to her in their world? And it made me crazy once again, she was absolutely mysterious.But then,
CHAPTER 8: ZON'S PERSPECTIVE- A few weeks later-Cassy came back while I was busy with my research."How was your research?" Cassy asked, and I frowned as I shook my head, for I found nothing after a month! Yeah, as in no information about them.She went near me and sat on the floor, "That's okay! We can found it soon," she smiled, and her blue eyes shine again. Those eyes again, it's so pretty."Gosh! What am I up to?!" I thought, and blaming her eyes!Well, yeah we've been seeing each other for almost more than a month, but not daily because we didn't know when could she appeared, here again, that's the problem. ******* A weeks ago ******I waited at my secret room every day, waiting for her to come bec
Chapter 9: Cassy's PerspectiveIt was a cold rainy night, and what I and that guy, named Zon's situation was really amazing, we were meeting to found out about two worlds, his world and of course, my own world, but I couldn't find anything.How amazing, wasn't it? The things you thought were a dream, was actually real? Well, we must expect the unexpected. Who knows what else could we see in the future.Beep!I heard my phone rang and when I saw it, it was Drake. I opened his message and honestly, it made me smile."Hey, how are your bruises? Next time be careful with your steps, I don't want to see you getting hurt, and how sad you did not wait for me! You went home early, however, it's fine, see you tomorrow!" He texted with a smiling emoji's every sentence from his message.Actually, I lied, my bruises were because of Berna, but I didn't want to tell him
Chapter 10: Cassy's PerspectiveIt's been days after that awkward moment with Drake and I still couldn't forget about it. Huhu, I was really uncomfortable with him, not in a negative way, but because of the fact that I knew that he was waiting for me."Hey, are you listening?" Zon asked."I'm sorry, what was it again?" I apologized and rubbed my head, and he rolled his eyes, hehe."Urgh! I've been speaking to you since recently, and you were not listening to me then?" He was exhausted and pouted his mouth."I'm sorry," I apologized to him one more time."It's okay, anyways here is the address of Anne Macney...""Really, you found it already?" I shouted and he got surprised when I stood up in enthusiasm."Hey, don't get too excited," he laughed and suddenly changed mood."Yes, but she is in a mental hospita
Chapter 11: Cassy's Perspective"Aren't we're going to where Ms. Macney at?" I asked him."Not now, I guess, it's better to go there on weekends," he answered and that was a decision of him that I couldn't urge to contradict, though I really wanted to go, for I maybe couldn't come with him on weekends. But how I wish I could."So, what are you planning to do now?" I asked and he went to his secret room again."Not sure yet," he answered and started to read books, he really does loves to read books, hah!"Anyways, I've been wanting to ask you this, why are you the one who allowed to came here?" I asked and he stopped reading and stared at me."This is my grandfather's school building, and when he died he let my father took this, and I chose to create this library, for comfort for those who love books," he answered and wow, how remarkable for him to come abo
Chapter 12: Cassy's Perspective"You do remember it now?" Bernadette chuckled."Please, Berna, leave me alone," I said bravely, and then she steps closer to me that I started to clench my pillow tightly, I was honestly breathing afraid of what will she do next.Then I was about to stand up when I heard my father's voice."Cassy, what happened to you?" My father said as he runs towards me."Dad? What are you doing here?" I surprisingly asked and I looked at Bernadette, who was standing at the back of my father, smirking, what an evil! What does she want?I just didn't pay attention to her and her group, because I was worried about my father."Oh my dear, Cassy, huhu," my father cried it was so painful that I felt water creeps from my eyes, yet I wiped my tears."Dad, you shouldn't have to show up here," I sadly said a
Chapter 13: Zon's PerspectiveI was sitting seriously here on my couch, waiting for her to come. But it takes one, two, three, and four hours and she was still not here."Are you coming?" I supposed as I gazed at the location where I first saw her. I could feel her presence, I didn't know why, but she was not here. And I felt vulnerable.Then I felt an abrupt twisting of my heart."What could be this feeling right now?" I tried to thought about it but no answer, of course, I absolutely need some stillness, I thought, because I wasn't really resting suitably in darkness, I kept on searching and always forget to sleep.Well, as the moment enacts by, she didn't appear. It's not like I was actually expecting to met her but it was because, today was the day that I was seeking to meet Ms. Anne Macney, and because she was also into this research, I wanted to bring her with me. So, I was supposed to merely go there tomorrow, probably her soul couldn't wand
