Rey, the New Resident?

"Ehh, yes. This is the flower of the mango tree. I guess from there," point Triska to the mango tree.

"Can't it be in my car? It's far from the tree" said Ary.

"What?" ask Zein who just got out of the house and walked towards the car.

"This, Bang. In my car there are flowers from the mango tree. If it's blowing in the wind it's impossible" Ary replied as he scratched the back of his head.

Zein watches the tree, then turns to look at Ary's car. A smile was engraved on the handsome man's face. Zein shook his head as he muttered, "Take care of you, Rima."

The sound of footsteps climbing the stairs, made Dinar jerk awake.

Jessica's laughter and the voice of the man in the upper room somehow made Dinar feel a little careless. Slowly he moved to the edge of the bed and sat down. His outstretched hand grabbed the glass filled with sweet tea water on the bedside table, and gulped it down several times.

Once finished Dinar put the glass back on the table, then get up and walk slowly towards the bathroom.

Finished cleaning himself, he changed clothes with a salem-colored tunic and black trousers. Then she went to the dressing table and swept a thin powder on the face, as well as lip care on the lips. Her hand grabbed the instant hijab from the top of the chair and wore it while mirroring.

Dinar took the wallet from the table and walked to the door, opened it slowly and suddenly sculpted.

In front of his room was a white-skinned and handsome-looking man. With a standard body height and proportional body shape. The man's face reminded him of someone.

"Sorry, surprised, huh?" greet the man while smiling.

"Ehm .. little," said Dinar.

"Oh, yes. Introduce. I'm a new occupant in the upper room" the man said, extending a hand.

Doubtful Dinar welcomed his helping hand, but for the sake of maintaining decency he finally welcomed the man's post slowly. "Dinar," he introduced himself.

"I, Rey," said the thick-haired man.

The dark night sky did not dampen Amanda's intention to take a walk in the park. Sometimes he stopped to just admire the flowers that bloomed, on the side of the road entrance of the big house.

Behind him looks Calvin following while watching the situation around. The tall man was still curious about the events a few nights ago.

In his mind was full of various questions that were difficult to answer.

"Calvin, when is Koko Rey coming home?" ask Amanda.

Calvin flinching. He did not hear the girl's question. The slightly shaggy-haired man gasped in shock as Amanda was suddenly already in front of him.

"Calvin, asked why?" amanda scolding her lips.

"Ehh ... ehm .. what?" Calvin flirting.

"Koko Rey, when are you coming home?" reset Amanda. He was anxious about Calvin's slow response.

"I don't know. Why?"

Amanda snorted and threw a glance in the other direction. The two bodyguards who had been standing by the door had now gone out of nowhere.

"There I am here. For you!" firmly Calvin.

Slowly the man's right hand moved to grab Amanda's. Swiping the girl's delicate fingers with all her feelings.

"Forgot him, Nda. Learn to love me" said Calvin quietly.

Amanda looked at the man closely. Trying to penetrate the sharp black bead of Calvin's eyes, and seek the truth of the man's love.

Amanda knew for a long time that Calvin liked her. But unfortunately, his heart has been filled by Rey first.

"I ... still love her" Amanda said. Drooping to hide the eyes that begin to dew. Covering the love that is still in the heart.

Calvin let go of the girl's hand and pulled her into his arms. He inhaled the scent of the body of the girl he loved and stored it in the chest cavity.

Calvin's right hand stroked Amanda's long hair, while his left hand restrained the girl's waist, in order to remain in her arms.

He lets go of the hug and touches Amanda's chin. Raise the girl's face until they look closely again.

The dumps in the girl's eyes made Calvin choked. She doesn't like to see Amanda cry. Especially if the girl is crying over someone else.

Calvin pressed his face forward and gently kissed Amanda's forehead. Letting his lips stay longer there.

Amanda's talk is starting to sound sad. It makes Calvin feel helpless. His fiancee's heart had become attached to another man, and he couldn't hate the man.

He could only wait for Amanda's heart to turn to him. Until whenever he will wait.

Zein looked at the laptop before him with a frown. He massaged the temple when suddenly Rima's face was plastered on the laptop screen.

"What's wrong?" asked Zein while holding her back.

"Get out" replied Rima.

"I'm tired. Tomorrow is all!"

"Not to know. Anyway I'll wait!" resolute Rima who suddenly disappeared from the screen.

Zein let out a long breath and exhaled slowly. His hand rubbed his pockmarked hair which started to be a little long.

Reluctantly the tall man got up from the chair and went to the door. Not forgetting he took the key from behind the door, and walked to the front door.

Zein peeked out from behind the window, trying to find Rima under the mango tree. But the girl was not there.

The man in white opened the door and pulled the front door quickly. His eyes moved toward the four cars parked neatly in the courtyard of the house.

He swung his foot towards the front of the car. Peering through Hasni's dark car glass. However, neither did Rima find.

"Luck!" cry Zein while covering her mouth with her right hand.

Rima's face seemed to grin from the windshield of Ary's car, which was parked right behind this car.

Zein gave the code by hand to get Rima out. Then he sat down on the steps of the terrace. His hand moved to open the magical fence that was always attached to his body.

Although the words of his grandfather and teacher, the delicate creature should not be too trusted, but Zein felt Rima was different. The girl was unlike any other ghosts she had ever met.

Rima suddenly stood in front of Zein. Their distance of just one meter made Zein a little awkward.

"Far away," Zein said as she flicked her hand.

"No want. It's delicious here," Rima replied casually.

The ghost in the bride's dress was seen sitting on grass in the front garden of the house. He looked at Zein seriously.

"Ngapain called me?" ask Zein.

"Be careful with the new occupants" replied Rima.

"Jessica?" ask Zein again while yawning.

"He and his friend. They also have the power of your kayak" said Rima while pretending to yawn.

"Sniffles!" Zein poked Rima with a pebble.

The girl dodged the pebble throw while laughing in a strange voice.

"I've met Jessica, but not her friend. Men right? It was a Dinar story so," explained Zein.

"Yes. I feel like I've seen it, but I forget where," Rima said, shoring her chin.

His cute style made Zein smile. Now he understands why Rima is so loved by his friends.

This girl is really innocent. He did not realize his cute style could make a man captivated. Especially for a guy like Eric.
