Ghost Dusk

Chapter 3 - June's Suspicion

...༻◈༺...

It's been very late afternoon. Julie hurried to finish the job. It just so happened that his job was a lot.

Julie finished when the time was almost six in the afternoon. He hurriedly grabbed a bag and left the office.

While walking towards the exit, Julie sees June waiting outside. The handsome ghost appeared to be standing up while putting two hands into the pocket of his pants. Whistling while occasionally observing the passerby. He behaves like a human being in general.

Julie breathed a heavy breath. His hand slowly held onto his chest. He tried to calm himself. Because the appearance of June again makes Julie's heart pound.

'Ah... I hate this beating, ' Julie lamented inwardly. He tried to calm himself by closing his eyes for a moment. Then Julie stepped through the door.

"Finally!" June immediately exclaimed. He's approaching Julie. Walking in line with the movement of the girl's legs.

"Why did you come home so late today? Is there a lot of work you have to finish?" ask June. Walk while holding hands behind your back. He looked at Julie with a smile. June's look was deep. It was as if there was love lodged there.

Julie stopped walking as the red light flashed. June stopped.

"I wish you could hear me. I don't care even if it's just one minute" June said sincerely. "I don't know why the first time I saw you I felt different. If you want to know, that's why I keep seeing you. You can't imagine how I struggled to wander around like this with you" he continued.

Julie heard all June's statements. But as usual, he always pretended not to listen.

The green light flashed, Julie stepped forward. The same thing June did.

Simultaneously, suddenly the fat-statured man bumped into Julie. To make the girl's high heels. Julie staggers and falls in the middle of the road.

"Yeah!" Julie squealed in pain. Her ankle feels so sore.

"Sorry, Miss. But I'm in a hurry!" said the man who hit Julie. He just said sorry and left.

"Hey! You're fucking!" June is furious to see the attitude of the man who hit Julie. After venting his frustration, he hurriedly checked on Julie.

"Julie! You okay?" ask June worriedly. He tried to help Julie stand up. But it can't. Because when June tries to touch Julie, her hand always pierces her body.

"Damn!" june is frustrated. He looked at the people around. June wondered why no one was helping. "Hey you! Do you have no empathy at all?!" his yell. Look at the people around.

Julie grimaces her face. He forced himself to stand up. But his feet hurt so much. When Julie was about to stand up, she always ended up sitting on the asphalt.

"Julie!" pekik June's. He looks very worried. It could be seen from the vibrations of his eyes that looked like he wanted to cry.

Unexpectedly, a man approached Julie. He is none other than Shane. The man rushed to help Julie step to the side of the road. Just before the pedestrian red light comes on.

"Thank you" said Julie. Shane immediately sat him down on a front bench.

"May I see your feet?" ask Shane.

"Yes, it seems like I'm just having a cramp" Julie said as she took off her heels from her feet.

Shane did not answer again. He's focused on checking Julie's legs. Shane found a bruise on the girl's leg.

June, who had been sitting next to Julie, stared sinisterly at Shane. He doesn't like the guy touching Julie's feet.

"Who is this guy, Julie? You seem to know each other," June added, holding her chin in one hand. "But judging from his style, he's definitely not your type. You can't be close to a man like him" he added.

"I'm taking you to my sister's clinic" Shane said. He stands. Requires Julie to look up to look at him.

Shane just kept quiet and watched. Makes June feel angry.

"Hey! Bookworms! Are you going to shut up and look at him like a fool?! Although the clinic is close, but Julie can't force herself to walk!" june's scolding while shaking her waist. "Hurry up and order a taxi for him!" said urgent.

"I'll carry you" Shane said. He immediately bowed his body in front of Julie. In a position to turn his back on the girl. Obviously Shane really wanted to hold Julie.

June's eyes instantly rounded perfectly. She didn't expect Shane to offer Julie a ride.

June obviously did not accept. Because if Julie is carried by Shane, then automatically the bodies of the two will touch each other.

"Don't want to, Julie. I'd be disappointed if you wanted to be carried by her" June said. Looking expectantly at Julie.

"You don't have to bother like this, Shane. I'll just take a taxi" Julie said. June smiled broadly.

Shane stood up straight and turned to face Julie. He nodded and immediately stopped the taxi that happened to be passing by. Then help Julie get into the cab. He also decided to accompany her.

The same thing June did. He sits in the middle. Between Julie and Shane. Both of them were sitting at a great distance.

"Thank you, Shane. You made a good impression on your first day at work" Julie said.

Shane just nodded while holding onto the nape. He did not dare to return Julie's gaze. Shane was really stiff and reserved.

"Oh, is he your new employee? I knew he couldn't be close to you" June said. Glancing towards Shane. Then I looked at Julie.

On the way, June was just busy looking at Julie from the side. It certainly makes Julie's feelings uncharacteristic. Moreover, June's gaze was so intimate and deep.

Unexpectedly, Julie's eyes unintentionally glanced towards June. Feeling overwhelmed by his actions, he immediately threw away his face.

June frowned. I don't know why she felt Julie was looking at her. June begins to suspect that Julie can see her whereabouts.

"Julie? Did you just see me?" ask June to make sure.

Julie was silent. He focused on looking out the window. Honestly speaking, cold hot sweat enveloped him. Julie occasionally wiped the dripping sweat on the temple. His heart was beating uncontrollably.

After a few minutes, Julie, June, and Shane arrive at the clinic. The orange sky began to darken.

"Geez, it's gonna be the night. Why time passes so quickly when I spend time with Julie" June lamented. His body is pierced by Shane who opens the door for Julie. The man immediately took Julie into the clinic.

Julie's legs are getting treatment. The pain slowly decreased. He was told to rest for a while at the clinic. Accompanied by Shane who sat waiting for him.

"You can go home now, Shane. Thank you again" Julie said.

"A-pa I need to call Axton for you?" Shane Response. He only stared at Julie once in a while. His head was always bowing.

"Axton? Do you know my brother?" Julie was astonished.

"Yes! That's weird, Julie. This guy has been stalking you a lot!" June, who had been sitting on the edge of Julie's bed, immediately made a sound.

"We used to go to the same high school" explains Shane.

"REally?!" Julie and June said it at the same time. This made Julie reflexively turn towards June. However, she immediately threw away her face for fear that June would be suspicious again. It was fortunate that the handsome ghost was not looking at him.
