Dark Autumn's

Dark Autumn's
03. Story



His mother once told him that; the ghost appeared unexpectedly, could penetrate even walls, could disappear with the wind that blew. Just scare the hell out of me.


The smoke from the mother's cooking can arouse the hunger of Lea. The boisterous sound of stomach dwellers asking to be filled immediately sounded clear. Crustling in the stomach.


No need to wait long, with a face that still looks puffy and eyes narrowed, with, Hilea sat on one of the dining table chairs that were available several home cooking menus on the table and lined up neatly as usual.


Should she tell her mother about the incident the other day? Lea looks doubtful, but...


"Mom, are ghosts real? "


The mother still arranged the food and occasionally double-checked the taste of the cuisine she made while looking at the Princess from the corner of her eyes.


"Why? Did you see a ghost last night? "


Lea smiled faintly, grabbed a glass of mother-made milk and gulped it a few times. The sweet taste that Lea likes, is not excessive. And also--


"If you ask mom, obviously mom's answer is yes! Although it cannot be seen by most people! Only certain people could see their presence! "


Lea nodded in understanding, she knew about it. Even a strange thing had happened right before his eyes; someone was present without knocking on the door and left somehow, which he had clearly seen. "Then will they also leave and pass quickly? I don't want to be trapped!" he said stuck in his mind.


Although his mother had told him the impossible just to scare him to quickly shut down when he could not sleep, in fact they did exist.


The afternoon is not so bright, the light produced still feels warm amid the low temperatures of the mountains. Lea spent the day as usual, in front of a computer screen.


But the focus again unraveled when the masculine voice greeted right in the ear. A moment made Lea startled and bristled at the same time. But the shock was not the same as when the young man first greeted him on the balcony last night.


His heart was beating uncontrollably, his breathing seemed to run out if he did not immediately scoop up as much oxygen as possible. Saying "Why did you show up again... "


"We don't know each other yet! And I came to greet you back! "


Unable to hold back the emotions and the turbulent curiosity in his heart, Lea stared fiercely at the figure of the young man who was currently walking a few steps away from him towards the balcony that looked tempting to visit.


"You're a ghost, huh?? "


The voice stopped the steps of the golden brown unravelling youth. Together with the gust of wind that greeted the face, the young man turned his head and gave his attenuation that was spiked with a thin smile. How fascinating.


"You think that way? Do I look like a ghost?" the answer is a little made up, then connect "If I'm a ghost are you afraid? "


Sontak Lea woke up from the chair that had supported her body earlier. The beer might pass an honest answer if the young man did not return. "Are you interested in seeing my world? "


You know a mace? Well, it felt like it hit the girl's body and heart. His breathing was stingy, his feet trembling when he heard the offer suddenly thrust into the audience.


The young man walked back closer, extending a large and pale palm right in front of his mid chest and stomach. Floating in the air waiting to be welcomed.


But feelings of fear, fear and others crawled up to the brain of the owner of the mane as soon as that night. His heart melted, how could he go to another dimension while he lived on a valid reality. Crazy, gone crazy. The hand is still waiting for his decision.


The world seems to be spinning fast. Dizziness, nausea and vomiting, and all flashes quickly like a memory that is turned back; nauseating, when their fingers are linked together. Whether because of being haunted by curiosity, or the figure of the young man in front of him at this time, Lea accepted the invitation.


Justjust wonderful.


He was not sure he would set foot on such an ancient building. But wait, is this real? Or just an illusion created by the young man who was currently walking ahead of him. Massaging slowly the temple, hoping that the nausea would soon disappear, Lea walked gontai following the big steps of the leggy young man and the level before him.


Netra Lea did not stop turning around worriedly. You know, if in a thriller or horror fantasy something will suddenly appear, attack or even pounce on its prey in a surprising way. Really, this is crazy! And also scary.


Shady trees, fog that enveloped the entire castle. Makes Lea's roman fur shudder with goosebumps.


Lea's feet jumped small as the low voice greeted him again in shock, "What's wrong? Do you want to go into the woods too? I can take you there! "


"T-no..! "


Of course that was the answer, he still wanted to live longer. Want to feel the happiness of building a small household, with a husband and two small and adorable people, and— ah, no no! this is not the time to imagine a building on the foundation of that sacred promise.


"You'll stay here later if you want! "


Later? if I want to? Oi! Are you crazy?! Of course I still want to live in the real world! Not this kind of illusion! His brain was completely muddled.However, Lea saw the two Netra youths were sincere-full of love.


"Are you now thinking this is all an illusion? or delusions?"


Lea's breath was choked. Lea also had time to think whether this young man could read his mind or how. Hazel swirled around unsettled, looking for the right and correct answer for her. But then again, all the descriptions that would normally appear beautiful and fast were lost when staring at the handsome and shady face of the young man who had not even mentioned his name.


"Call me Val! "


For whatever was flying in the air, Lea had stopped her breathing and also her heartbeat for a moment. The young man was reading his mind.


"Is your profession a shaman?"


The man wiped away all the smiles on his face, staring strangely full of curiosity from the face of the slightly thin girl. Then tilt his head slightly to enter the hazel of the girl.


"What do you think I am? First you say I'm a ghost, and now, shaman?"


The man chuckled softly, covered his mouth with one palm, then floated another palm in the air and moved right and left. "No! I'm just an ordinary creature! Not shamans let alone terrifying monsters! You don't have to worry, I can't read your mind! You're special! " firmly while walking closer and gently rubbed the hair that was a little messy.


"You're right, I can judge what a person has in mind just by looking into his eyes!" the young man paused for a moment, then spoke again. "But not with you! I saw nothing in your beautiful hazel! You're totally pure! Like the lake water that is among the thundering waterfalls! "


Lea doesn't understand, at all. His head is getting dizzy. Poetic sock!! That was all he could describe when he heard the words that the young man who claimed to be named Val had just spoken.


"I'll take you many places if we're together later! "


Breathing in again Lea exhaled. His breathless gaze returned, along with a faint smile at the end of his lips that followed, "We will never be together! I don't want to live in the middle of this illusion you've created! Val-ssi!


The man blinked a few times, bringing their faces closer. Cold air slowly greeted Lea's face as the young man exhaled along with a small smile. Then put his palm for him to put it on the cheek of Lea who slightly blushed. She whispered and locked her pupils.


"But this is not an illusion! You'll see things come true if we come together!"[]
