My Beloved Shadow

Prejudice

Since the incident, Keyra has been curious to see the cold, indifferent and arrogant man who helped her when she fell from the hood of the car.

Sometimes Keyra steals a glance just to make sure if he ever knew her somewhere or not.

"You why Key?" asked Vira who noticed Keyra's strange behavior since then.

"Do you know him, brother?"

Instead of answering Vira's question, the girl asked her sister-in-law about something else.

Vira followed Keyra's point of view, and he finally understood what Keyra meant.

"His name is Bram, don't tell me that your strange behavior since then is because you're interested in Key." sizzled Vira who was now staring in full search at Keyra.

"Are you crazy! I've got Reno and won't probably like another guy. Even though I admit that man is very handsome." said Keyra with a blushing face.

However, he must admit the charm of Bram that makes his heart work increased several times when staring at the shady eyes but seemed wild behind it.

"Good, 'cause Bram is one of those guys you should stay away from Key."

Vira got up and patted her slightly dirty ass.

Keyra had a glance at Bram who was discussing the path they would take to continue the next trip before the afternoon went.

Then the girl caught up with Vira because she was still curious about what she said about Bram just now.

"Can you explain why I should stay away from a guy like Bram? does he have a contagious disease? or...Is it possible he's a Gay ?"

Uhuk..

Vira who was sipping a drink from her bottle choked and glared at Keyra.

Taking a few sheets of tissue, Keyra helped Vira clean her wet lips and hands.

Keyra wished for his guess to be wrong, but he could think of no other reason than that.

"Are my guesses right until you're so surprised?" asked Keyra with her innocent face.

This time Vira laughed so hard that she had to hold her stiff stomach.

"What's funny, you weird shit. I'm just sorry why a handsome man should like the same shape as his weapon, compared to the body of a Spanish guitar like most normal men." the Keyra snort that again steals the view on Bram that looks very gallant and charming when viewed from any angle.

"Now I'm grateful that you're on this journey, Key, you're really comforting me with your ridiculousness" said Vira, still trying to hold back her laughter.

Keyra snorted angrily and chose to wear her sunglasses to take her eyes off her who always wanted to look at Bram, as if there was a magnetic pull so Keyra was always interested in looking at the man.

"Who is that woman? they seem pretty close. You saw how he stuck to Bram like an octopus."

Vira turned her head to look towards Keyra and smiled meaningfully.

"Why are you so curious about Bram?" ask Vira.

"I just want to make sure she's gay while there's such a beautiful, sexy woman with her" Keyra turned her words around and got into her brother's car.

Vira raises one corner of her lips and catches up with Keyra in the car.

After all, it seemed like they had to continue their journey to the next destination.

"Actually I also don't know about Bram's taste, which I know all along he's been so hard to approach any woman with his cold attitude, only Zea can get that close to Bram." vira continued the conversation.

"Jeez Key, can you open those glasses!" pekik Vira who just realized Keyra is still wearing her sunglasses even though they are already in the car.

"Something's wrong, it's cool, brother, you don't know the style of today's youth." elak Keyra was full of confidence.

At the same time Arya and her friend named Sam also entered and turned to the two girls who were sitting on the back bench.

"Hi Sam, what do you think I look like?" Keyra leaned forward so Sam could see Keyra so clearly.

Even the man had to bother swallowing his saliva because it was treated to the handsome face of Keyra in such a close distance.

Beautiful face, thick eyebrows, a sharp nose and natural red lips that are so tempting do not escape the attention of Sam.

"Satanoy.." Arya deliberately voiced out to wake Sam who was immersed in the charm of his sister.

"A.em.you're so beautiful Key, uh.anu I mean there's nothing wrong with your appearance, you're cool with your sunglasses." said Sam stammeredly found a flat gaze from Arya his best friend.

"Thank you, brother, and I'm grateful you're still normal."

Keyra rewinded her body again and glanced back at the car that Bram was riding in from the windowpanes

Seeing that Vira just shook her head slowly and chose to continue reading her novel that she brought from home.

Keyra blinked his eyes several times, looked around and found no one else in the car but himself.

His lentic eyelashes grazed several times when the twilight sun shone on his face, Keyra decided to go out and see the beautiful panorama that was now in front of him.

Staring in amazement, Keyra kept her foot between the green grass that spread with some wild flowers that were also beautiful.

In front there Keyra also saw a lake that reflects orange light, a sight that really makes Keyra forget that it turns out the step is too far from where his brother's car is parked.

Keyra landed his butt on the rocks, picking up the phone he had stored in his pants pocket.

The girl took some photos to capture this moment, which she would not have discovered if she had returned to the city.

A shower of twilight sunlight as the background produces a photo that is so cool according to Keyra.

Without him realizing it was getting darker and he was still busy playing his cellphone which could only be used to take pictures.

"Gosh what is that?"

The darkening day made Keyra unable to see clearly what was in front of him at this time.

Only a large high black shadow now drew closer to him, causing Keyra to shift and fall from the boulder he was sitting on.

"Please don't come near me, go and don't bother me!" yell out Keyra scared.

He just curled his eyes behind his folded knees.

His body trembled with fear by the black figure that made the shadow of Keyra run away everywhere.

Keyra ventured to peek and opened her eyes, the girl shrieking hysterically as the black figure was standing right in front of her.

"A ghost or whatever please go! I'm not dead yet, I'm so young and unmarried, please have mercy on me! Mamaa..."

Keyra gasped in shock when he felt his mouth that was sealed by a hand that was large enough to almost cover his entire face.

"Can't you just shut up!"

The crying Keyra instantly fell silent to the scream from the figure that was now in front of her.

Even so his tears still continued to shed from fear.

"So much better" said the man after no longer hearing Keyra's screams and removing his hand from the girl's mouth.

Keyra no longer dared to open his voice, but when the figure of the man moved and walked away from him Keyra again cried loudly.

"What's wrong with you? why are you screaming back!" said the figure in an angry tone and went back to Keyra.

"I want to go home." said Keyra interrupted by his sobs.

"Then what's the problem? you can walk and go home like you want, instead of yelling like crazy in this place."

"It's dark and I don't know the way home" Keyra replied.

He was so frightened, but somehow still could answer the question of the figure of the man that he could not even see how his face looked.

At least now Keyra was a little relieved because at least he knew that the figure was a human instead of a ghost as he had expected.

Considering he can touch it, while according to the story he heard all this time that ghosts will not be able to touch.

Silent...

"Stand up and follow me!" the man ordered in a hostile tone.

Keyra was silent, he was still hesitant between accepting the man's offer or staying here waiting until Arya looked for him.

"Whatever you don't want to, I suggest you don't yell and don't move much, because that will only make it easier for the crocodiles here to find you."

Keyra tiptoed and immediately stood up to the figure of the man.

Keyra palpated and immediately grabbed the man's hand for him to hold very tightly.

"Ja..don't leave me here." said Keyra stammered.

And it seemed that the man also did not mind Keyra clasping his hands.

Without a sound the man walked easily even though there was not the slightest light that illuminated them.

While Keyra was so difficult to keep up with the man's steps and several times almost fell because he could not see anything in front of him.

"A.what are you doing!" keyra shouted as her body was lifted up in the man's sling.

"I believe I don't want to do this either, but you're so troublesome and making my move even harder, boy."

The man returned to the carriage with Keyra who was in his carriage.

And really, Keyra felt her heart pounding uncharacteristically because her face was now stuck to the chest that felt so hard and muscular.

All of that was so clearly felt because the man was bare-chested, that Keyra could directly touch his skin.

Even Keyra is increasingly made to float when inhaling the masculine aroma of the man.

Even if you're a ghost, I will voluntarily devote myself to you.

Keyra tightened his hands that were now coiled around the man's neck and drowned his face deeper because he felt so comfortable.

"Keyra!"

Arya's screams made Keyra open her eyes, and now her body has moved in the arms of her brother.

"Don't let your sister wander around, it's still a good thing I saw her and could take her home."

"Thank's Bram" said Arya briefly but still with her anxious face remembering Keyra who she thought was missing.

Bram patted Arya on the shoulder and passed.

"Open your eyes and think of a reason that could save you this time Keyra!" angered Arya who was made almost crazy by the behavior of his younger brother.

"Death to me." Inner Keyra.

And the girl finally chose to act like she was asleep to avoid her brother's rampage.

"Take Key to the tent first." persuaded Vira who was then nodded by Arya.
