Chapter 18 - Complicated Crush (6) (1/2)

Aah, I didn't know anymore. Tom, please, come back! I whined lightly as I hid my face in my knees. A little while later, I raised my head and saw the clock on the wall. It was 3 in the morning.

I got up and walked to get some water. After I drank almost a glass full of water, I washed my face in the bathroom. After that, I walked back to my bead. Cold wind blew and I shivered lightly. I turned around, hoping to see Tom, but I found no one behind my back. I sighed and sat beside my bed.

”Senior, please, come back!!” I called slowly.

”...”

”It's not funny anymore. Come on. How come you let me sleep alone? It's annoying, you know.” I whined.

”...”

”If you don't come out soon, I'll be mad at you for real, you know. I'll cut you off!”

Cold wind covered me but I didn't care about it. Then, a pair of translucent hands hugged me from behind. I could feel a cold breeze crept on my spine.

”Okay, but promise me you won't get angry again.” He whispered right on my right ear, cold but gently.

”Who was the one who went out from home?” I said sarcastically.

Tom laughed. ”Don't mention it. Let's sleep again.”

I got on my bed and covered my body with blanket again. He followed me and lied beside me. He stared at me.

”You're lucky I'm just a spirit. If I had a body now, you would be done by now.” He said as he laughed slowly.
