Chapter 81 - Amanda (1) (1/2)

Tom was still alive!

At least, that's what Uncle Ben told us. It was hard to believe what Uncle Ben said, but I also had no way to prove that he was lying. The only thing I could do was to meet him and have a long conversation about it.

But, planning was easy; doing it for real required time and trick.

Of course, I had some very good reasons to say so.

First, it was almost the end of semester, which meant I was busy with my final project for the semester. The amount of project that needed to be done was enough to make me forget the night I was assaulted by my ex' shadow wife.

Second, every time I finally had time to rest and thought about things other than my projects, I was always dealing with some astral entities that were trying to harm me in some ways. Fortunately, I was always with either Sanji or Tom. There were times when I was not with any of them but with my ordinary friends who could not see 'them', all I could do was trying to find any excuse, believable or not, and ran away.

I even ran away from Kunti!

Who could be so powerful to manipulate her?

I knew Kunti was not the most powerful ghost out there, but the fact that she could change her appearance into a normal human proved that she did has some power inside. If someone were to manipulate her, it meant this person was really powerful.

I wonder who could this person be? The target was me, surely it must be someone I knew, right?

Not to mention this person could also persuade Amanda.

Because of those reasons, I spent almost a month ignoring and dodging the attack directed at me. Of course, it was not an easy feat. That was why Tom and Sanji always tried to stay with me in any occasions. If they were not with me, well, I could only run away and hide in my newest and best hiding place; the infirmary.

For some reason, they couldn't enter or find me there. After that, I would wait on Sanji or Tom to come and pick me up.

I seriously needed to learn some tricks to protect my own self against these ghosts.

Apparently, because the frequency of Sanji being with me increased, I gained more human enemies. Jealousy was indeed scary. At least, I didn't need to run for my life when I dealt with them. A bit of threat would scare them away. And I was not someone who couldn't protect my own self against physical bullying. I always brought a recorder with me just in case I needed to protect myself against some unjust accusations.

So what if one of those stupid and love-struck girls' father was a lawyer?

What if one of them was a policeman?

I made sure to multiply the recording so if something were to happen to the recording file, I still had some back ups with me.

Try deleting all of those, I dare you!

Not to mention I had Sanji to back me up; my ultimate problem solver!
