Chapter 44 - His Story (3) (1/2)

”Excuse me! Looking dumb and being dumb are totally different!” I protested. My line of mind was distracted because of his teasing.

”Err, could you lovebirds stop fighting in front of me? Don't you pity this single soul here in front of you?” Kunti's helpless voice reminded me that there was something more important than to argue with him.

”Okay. I get it now. The two of you are similar yet so different. Which bring me to my last question. Why are you two different?”

Kunti shook her head softly. ”Unfortunately, even if I know the answer, I cannot tell you. No matter how hard I try to tell you, it's like there is an invisible bound is tying my tongue, hand, and any means to tell you the answer. You only have to know, that we are different.”

I took a deep breath and straightened my back. All the information I got filled my brain and I felt my head so full. Now that I knew he was not an ordinary ghost, I only had to think the reason he became a raw spirit.

A chuckle left my lips when I realized our topic had changed. At first, we were talking about Senior Rizal and his wedding. And suddenly, out of nowhere, we talked about Tom and Kunti. Well, that's how girls talk! We jump from one topic to another in a heartbeat!

”What's so funny?” Tom asked.

”I just realized we have strayed away from the topic.” I told him.

”Well, can't blame anyone. It's us girls who do the talking. It's normal.” Kunti smirked as she shrugged her shoulders. I nodded along, agreeing to what she said. ”Anyway, what will you do about him? Your human boyfriend, I mean.” Her expression turned serious.

To be honest, I really had no idea. I didn't want to get involved in his family matter, but I was too curious to let it slip away. Especially after what I heard, it picked my curiousity to know more.

Also, there was a part of me that wanted to test the affinity Kunti told me before. Would I really feel the difference or not?

”For now, I still don't know what to do. I'll think about it again because it doesn't really involve me. I broke up with him when he got married. We really don't have any relationship now except being friends or acquaintance.”

”I refuse to let you go near him!” Tom said sternly.

”Such a jealous husband! Tsk tsk tsk...” Kunti shook her head as she clicking her tongue.

”We're not married yet!” I protested.
