Mr. Hephephobias
CHAPTER 73 - Mermaid Ghosts



Lusia has started to return to work at the Cafe, this makes him return to his routine of dividing his morning time working at Villa Rayn and afternoon work at the Cafe, of course he just came home at night. This also makes Lusia have a habit of bathing the night after arriving at the Villa.


Tonight, it seems to be a pretty unlucky night for him. How not, when he was busy cleaning himself suddenly the electricity went out. Lucia still remained calm, she began to creep around looking for her towel robe. As an ordinary human who did not have the eyes of a god or the eyes of a cat, of course it would be difficult to do in complete darkness.


Lucia was still struggling to find, but this had been too long. He tried to call Arka to ask what was going on and to ask for help to bring light for her. It is impossible if there is a dead light in a long time for a Villa of that size.


As the saying goes, I fell down the stairs. Something that had been out of his control happened, Lucia slipped because the floor was still slippery and she fell. Lucia suffered an injury to her leg while trying to support her body so as not to fall. But he failed, until finally landed his body resignedly on the floor.


Lucia tried to shift her body slowly pulled over until she leaned against the door. His feet hurt so much that he could no longer stand to find his towel. It is conceivable that his position without a thread at this time really completes the saying earlier, this is even worse than actually being hit by a ladder.


Lucia no longer dared to scream, but Arka who had heard Lucia calling herself suddenly approached the bathroom. Arka knocked on the door calling Lucia's name with an electric light in her hand.


“What Miss is inside? Is Miss okay? There seems to be a problem with the electrical supply at Villa, so it will take a little time to get back on. But you do not need to worry because there is a team that is handling. I bring you lighting" said Arka at length but did not get any approval from Lucia.


Arka was doubtful as to whether Lucia was still inside or might have come out. Arka tried to open the door but the door was still locked from the inside. Lucia felt this was so bad, she was embarrassed and confused as to what to say to describe the situation she was facing right now.


Lusia just knocked her head at the door repeatedly. “Tamatlah your history Lusia” he said in his heart by continuing to beat his head lamenting his fate at this time.


“Duk.. Duk...”


The sound made Arka panic, she instantly became goosebumps. He heard Lucia calling his name, but Lucia did not answer his question as if there was no one inside but the door was locked. Arka tried to stick her ear on the door and tried to hear again the strange sound.


"What are you doing?" asked Rayn who just came down the stairs with only the lighting of the flashlight feature on her phone.


"I heard Miss Lucia calling me from inside the Young Master" Arka said.


Hearing Arka's reply, Rayn immediately sped her way closer and shouted. "Yes.. have you gone mad?" he asked by standing in front of the door against Arka. Arka swiftly stepped away.


"Do you also think if it's a strange sound...?" ask Arka. He thinks Rayn's response was parno.


"What are you talking about? I discussed your insolent attitude. If you know Lucia's inside, what do you do by sticking your head in the door?" ask Rayn.


Arka immediately lowered her head to apologize, she did not suspect that Rayn would misunderstand his attitude. Arka explained that she did so because she did not get an answer from Lucia instead heard a strange voice.


Hearing Arka's explanation, Rayn panicked. He knocked on the bathroom door and called for Lucia. “Lusia..., Lucia, are you still inside?” rayn asked, knocking on the door.


“You're sure he's still inside?” rayn asked Arka.


“I doubt but I hear duk, duk, duk at the door like this” replied Arka by hitting the bathroom door indicating the sound she heard earlier.


“Duk, duk, duk?” rayn asked trying to understand the meaning of Arka.


“How can he be here?” lusia asked inwardly to hear the voice of Rayn and Arka who busied the sound of the head impact from her despair.


Rayn panicked even more, and he banged on the bathroom door by calling Lucia. He kept trying to turn the handle of the door that was already real would not open because it was in the key from the inside.


It wasn't long before Lucia finally started to open her voice before Rayn would actually break down the door and see the jewel in the dark.


“I.." said Lucia then silent for a moment.


"I'm fine, don't worry. Can you speed up the repair?” ask Lucia from the bathroom.


Rayn immediately snatched the electric light from Arka's hand. "Lussia, wait a minute" he said and went up to the 2nd floor. Even without a word he did not care to have left Arka in the dark just like that.


Soon Rayn returned and asked Lucia. “Can you open the door a little?” ask Rayn.


"opened?” ask back to Lucia.


“If you can't open it, I'm sorry, I'll open forcibly” Rayn said.


“What will you do?” ask Lucia to panic.


“I won't do anything. I just want to give you what you might need in”, Rayn replied.


“Which I need?” ask Lucia.


Lucia finally shifted her body in order to open the door. He thought that Rayn might give some light. If true, then it will be useless because not only the lighting is the problem, but he really can not stand at this time. It was hard for him to reach for his towel robe. Lucia was too embarrassed to say that she was currently wearing nothing.


“I'll open it ta...ta pi, but, you don't go straight in, just give me your hand. Hear you? Just give me your hand” said Lucia nervously.


Lucia slowly opened the door a bit, she only gave a reproach to the incoming hand. Whatever Rayn would give he had to obey, at least it wouldn't make Rayn break the door if it wasn't obeyed.


The door opened, Rayn reached out with a towel robe she had just picked up, she also gave a lighting for Lucia. “Wear it and tell me if you're done wearing it” said Rayn then helped Lucia close the door again.


“What is this? How does he know if I need him? Horrible, what do you-don't he install cctv here?” lucia panicked.


Although his body could not wake up but his eyes clingak-clinguk guerrilla peeking at every corner with lighting lights is it possible the existence of cctv that he had never realized so far. He suspects that Rayn may have installed a cctv in the bathroom.


"Are you done?” ask Rayn.


“You can leave me, I'll wait until the lights are really on” Lucia replied.


“I asked, are you done?” rayn asked repeating a question that Lucia had not answered.


“I'm done wearing it, but..” says Lucia. Not until he finished saying the sentence was cut Rayn.


“Alright, I'll go in” said Rayn directly opening the door. He saw Lucia sitting in a mermaid-like pose that lay her body on the door that was half-open by Rayn.


Rayn immediately grabbed the lighting lamp from Lucia's hand, she shone at Lucia's feet. Lucia clutched her body. “Hyaa…! What are you doing?” ask Lucia.


“I guessed” he said by touching the injured ankle of Lucia.


Rayn put down the lamp and directly carried Lucia with her hands. “Hya... what are you doing” shouted Lucia.


Previously Rayn had suspected that something must have happened with Lucia in the bathroom. It was seen from the attitude of Lucia who did not want to go out even though Arka was waiting for her outside with a lighting lamp. Rayn knew that it meant that Lucia didn't want to go out of the bathroom, but she couldn't get out because she was injured.


Rayn had also been able to guess if Lucia was not only injured but also did not wear anything. Because when Lucia should have known Rayn was there, she just had to ask her for help. It means there's something else Lusia desperately needs. That's why Rayn immediately went to pick up her towel robe.


Rayn took Lucia out of the bathroom by holding her with both hands. The arc that had been waiting outside immediately gave the illumination in his hand to them.


Just as Arka was about to approach, the lights were already on again. The previously pitch-black villa is now back in light. The arrow that was just about to step its foot immediately stopped and flipped over the body as soon as the light flashed.


"What's up?” rayn asked Arka.


Rayn lowered her head to ascertain what was wrong with her holding onto Lucia.


“Hya....!!!”


Shouted Rayn, he immediately reflected back to look straight ahead by closing his eyes after looking down at something he should not see.


“What's up?” Now Lucia asked Ryan.


Lucia also wondered what was wrong with them. He slowly looked at himself at the part that made Rayn suddenly scream and turn away.


“Aaaa.......!!!!” Lucia shouted loudly in Rayn's arms.


What happened to Lucia now can no longer use the saying has fallen down the stairs. I don't know what a strange fate that always binds him with the tragedy that always happens every light off and of course there is always Rayn there.
