_____________

Bella escorts her Mama to an Online Taxi that has been booked previously.

"Ra, Mama go home first. You're in good health and the college is diligent, yes, son."

Ms. Ika and Bella hugged for a moment, then broke the hug while smiling warmly at each other. Bella also obeyed the orders of the mother.

"Oh, yes, before Mama forgets. The matter of your promise is the same he also do not think about it anymore. It's all in the past," Miss Ika tried to commemorate Bella for the umpteenth time.

"Yes-yes, Ma," replied Bella in a lazy tone because the Mama always repeated the same sentence - or how many times in a day alone.

"Mama asked me to make that promise. Felix will definitely continue to bully me. Not to mention the consequences of what I would receive if I just want to make that promise," Bella's mind, she shuddered at the thought of Felix's anger.

After making sure the mother was sitting comfortably in the Taxi, and that nothing was left behind, the taxi slowly began to wander away from Bella's vision.

Bella waved at Taxi who was getting longer and longer starting to disappear from her eyes.

As the day progressed, Bella re-entered her room. He felt today was a tiring Sunday, but Bella was not going anywhere and just spent time in the room with her.

Bella closed the door and locked it, then she turned to the study table, how surprised she was when she realized there was another figure asleep in her bed. Bella gasped and reflexively retreated while shaking her head slowly over and over again.

"You, who?" ask Bella in fear.

Bella wanted to scream because in front of her there was now a figure of a man lying down while looking at her closely.

Bella does not know who the man is, his face is indeed very handsome and enough to make Bella amazed, but who is this man? Why did he enter Bella's room without permission? Not to mention that he was casually sleeping on Bella's bed with a chest-length. Does he mean anything to Bella?

"Who are you?"

Again Bella's voice asked who the man was, because the man never answered her. Bella wants to scream now, but somehow she can't.

"Don't come any closer!" bella said as she shook her head quickly as the man got up and started approaching her position.

The man smiled obliquely, his dominant aura making Bella's room room feel sultry instantly. Bella frowned, her sweat began to wet the children's hair.

"Are you able to see my true figure now?" ask the man to Bella.

"Huh? Wait...." Bella stuck out her hand as a signal that the man was not getting closer to her, Bella wanted to think first now, because this man's voice was very familiar to her sense of hearing.

Again, the man smiled in anguish. The man then shut up and did not walk back to Bella. Now the man was holding his chest as if waiting for Bella who seemed to be thinking and digesting all this.

"Are you-?" Bella stopped her own words when her mind had gotten an answer as to who this man before her was.

"No way." Bella closed her mouth agape due to her insecurities.

The man scratched his own nape, he was confused to see Bella's attitude, then he shrugged his shoulders casually, behaved cuckily and went back to lying on Bella's bed without guilt.

"Hey..don't sleep on my bed!" hardik Bella, he was still in shock but seeing the man's attitude made him a little furious.

"Where else do I sleep? There is only one bed here" replied the man grumbling.

"You can sleep on the floor or rent in another room," said Bella, now that she has mastered the situation and seeing the man's behavior in front of her, she has lost patience.

"Where can I, I'm not like you." The man returned in a sitting position, his lips throbbing as if he was sulking. Bella rolled her eyes looking at the man's behavior.

"Where have you been sleeping? Just follow your old habits!" bella replied that she would not lose, Bella took the water and drank the water in her glass.

"I slept here all along. In the same bed as you. But, you didn't see me because I didn't show myself," the man replied, causing Bella to spit out her drinking water right then and there in surprise.

"Now you can't! You need to find another place."

"Why is that? I slept outside yesterday, as long as your Mama stayed here" replied the man again.

"Then what if someone sees you sleeping in the same bed as me, Felix?" Bella glared at the man who turned out to be the real form of a Felix.

"Nobody can see me but you! Never mind that I want to sleep" Felix replied indifferently.

"I thought that with you being able to see my true form, you wouldn't mind sharing a bed with me. I was expelled!" felix's murmur could still be heard by Bella.

Bella sighed, she lazily answered Felix again muttered. He sat on the only single sofa in the corner of his room. The girl leaned her head there while massaging the base of her nose that suddenly felt pain.

"What if I can't keep a promise to help you?" bella asked, after the silence.

Felix, who had just closed his eyes, opened his eyes again.

"You haven't tried it yet" he replied flatly.

"If I don't try at all?"

"That means you renege on a promise" Felix said.

"If I break my promise. What's gonna happen to me?"

Felix was silent in his own mind, he snorted as if he did not like the question Bella asked.

"If you renege on that promise, there is no profit or loss for you."

Bella gasped at Felix's words. His eyes now looked at Felix who he had just seen once in a human appearance. That handsome face looks sad. His thick eyebrows linked to each other, showing his confused attitude to answer everything Bella asked.

"I don't have to keep that promise, do I?"

Felix shook his head, he did not want to return Bella's gaze, he lowered his head while concentrating both elbows on his knees that were bent because of the sitting position. The man seemed to be thinking hard.

"It's up to you. Whether you comply with it or not, it is your right. I can only wait, but even if you don't want to, what can I do?" Felix smiled wryly, at the same time the look of his eyes collided with Bella's lentic eyes, making Bella shake herself because of Felix's eye gaze that shook her feelings.

"Ehm, if that doesn't affect me. Then what's the impact on you if I don't help you?" bella asked, she returned Felix's eyes, made them look at each other and locked the gaze.

"Maybe I'll be a ghostly spirit all the time. My real body will continue to be possessed by the evil creature and gradually, if he is fed up with it, that's when I will really die and be destroyed," said Felix who made Bella feel the injustice suffered Felix so far.

"It's been years, Ra. And surely soon the creature will be bored with the body." Felix rubbed his face rough.

Bella gets closer to him and sits next to Felix, feeling bad for Bella trying to disappoint Felix. For many years Felix had high hopes for Bella, until he waited for the right moment to show himself in front of Bella at this time.

"If you don't want to keep that promise and help me, that's your right. I can't force you" Felix said gently, staring at Bella, who was sitting next to him.

"I-I'll help you" Bella replied nervously as their eyes clashed again at close range.

The corner of Felix's lips was pulled up, the man smiled knotfully. "I honestly don't want to ask for your help either. If I could, I would ask someone else for help. But it can't" Felix said.

"Why don't you accept my help?"

"Because I'm also afraid all this will hurt you later."

Suddenly Felix's hand was stretched out, he stroked softly Bella's cheek. Bella was lulled for a moment because of Felix's attitude.

"Why can't you ask someone else for help? Why should I?" ask Bella again.

Felix shook his head. "According to Ki Lanang, the one who can help me is the one who has a bond with me."

"Ki Lanang?" ask Bella not to know who Felix meant.

"Yes, he is like a gentleman or a respected ruler in my house" Felix replied.

"... If only I had a brother, it might be my brother who could help me, because it was likely that he could also see me. But I don't have a brother. And my mother, how could she help me when she herself pawns my body to the evil creature? The only one who has a bond with me is you, Ra." Felix continued.

"I understand, I'll help you" Bella said sincerely.

Bella also reflexes patting the back of Felix's hand, he hopes that the way Felix will be a little calmer.

"Thank you."

Felix deliberately caught Bella's hand that was patting her hand gently, Felix clasped the girl's fingers while staring intensely at Bella. Bella became nervous again due to Felix's gaze.

"I-I'm going to the bathroom" said Bella avoiding Felix. Inevitably, Felix also broke his hand with a heavy heart.

"Ehm, that's. uh put your shirt on. Do not linger like that later you can catch a cold," heap Bella as she passed to the bathroom.

Felix chuckles. "I don't have any clothes. My mother's ritual requires me to be like this, making me look like this" Felix replied, screeching so that Bella, who was already in the bathroom, could hear her voice.
