The Arrow of the Goddess

Chapter 5 The misadventures

Already three days after the incident yesterday, Ericsson still seemed surprised and just kept silent without caring about Alexia who always bothers him, even he looks like a loss of soul. Is it possible, his soul was really carried away by a cat demon? 

Arriving at one point, when they faced each other, Ericsson began to look at Alexia very sharply. 

"Jawab my question! Am I going to end up experiencing something like yesterday?" Suddenly Ericsson spoke while looking at Alexia's eyes sharply and seriously.

"Em...maybe?" Half-smiling Alexia gave an unsatisfactory answer. It seems he did it intentionally. Making the man in front of him at that time give a response like what he wanted.

"Damn, why does it feel like my life is getting messy right now. Is there no other way to get everything back to normal?" Ericsson looked depressed, approaching Alexia. Demand an answer from him.

With unexpected Alexia's face was very close to Ericsson while staring at the two bright brown eyes.

"There's no other way, you have to fall in love with me right away, and it's all over." Smiling ignorantly Alexia while giving a small kiss on Ericsson's right cheek 

Ericsson instantly widened his eyes and immediately took a step back, giving him a distance between the two. Ericsson who is not used to women experience tension all over the body, due to the action of the Goddess who is not responsible.

"It seems that it's impossible !" Subduing her face that felt her hope had gone away simply disappeared.

Alexia heard that she was a bit disappointed. 

"What's the problem? It seems I'm attractive enough to humans, so what makes you not sure you love me?" This time Alexia again stood right in front of the man who was cut off hope.

"Of course it's because you're not human, and you look really weird to me." Ericsson's eyes glanced at Alexia's wings hidden behind her back. At that moment Alexia understood with those eyes. And immediately he hid his two snow-white wings, re-entering his body.

"Look, don't I already look so much like a human !" Acting sweet by rounding your eyes and blinking repeatedly, makes him like a little boy who wants compliments.

Strangely Ericsson like unaffected by the behavior of the Goddess, instead he remained relaxed with his flat expression.

"It's similar, but it's different." His words are very flat.

Alexia also turned to leave the man who she thought was annoying even with a grunt.

***

The unlucky man was Ericsson, he got a reprimand from the Boss, because he suddenly took 3 days off. At that time, he was also told, if there would be a part-time employee who would replace him on the morning shift. For this reason he was assigned to provide sufficient direction to the officer. It was not long before the new employees arrived, as they generally knew each other and Ericsson began to explain some things about his work. Eventually, Ericsson left. 

Ericsson thought about her free time in the morning, until she decided to find another part-time job. Given the results will be quite decent to add to his monthly income. Coincidentally also a few days ago, he had seen a poster of job vacancies at a coffee cafe not far from where he lived. He immediately applied for the job and was eventually accepted. 

Either the unlucky fate that followed him, or indeed Ericsson alone who had not been lucky to experience events that are not good in a row. Just getting into work, he had already spilled coffee on one of the customer's desks. But there was something strange about this incident. He saw very clearly if his hand was touched by the little boy who came with the customer. But the customer rejected that. He said that he came alone without bringing a child. She also added that she did not have a child yet, and only this morning she learned that she had just become pregnant. Then who's the kid? 

Ericsson slowly glanced at the boy. And immediately the look of his face changed. Shocked and horrified as if drawn from the look of his eyes. His body became stiff, his mouth as if silenced, unable to make a sound. He saw very clearly that the little boy had turned into a terrible figure. Where the parts of his body seemed to be shapeless, and some of it was missing.

The customer called Ericsson a few times, but he didn't seem to listen. Until the customer finally patted Ericsson's arm, and then he realized.

"Are you okay? Your face looks very pale." The customer asked about Ericsson's condition, which looked less healthy.

"Ah.ya I'm fine. Sorry for my carelessness you are having problems like this. Again I'm sorry !" Ericsson said, even with a body that began to tremble.

"Thank you !" Ericsson immediately resigned and left the desk where the woman's customer was. He went to the back to calm down. 

In the mirror, there was only a reflection of him. And once again he washed his face with cold water. I hope his mind will return to normal. Because the incident just now was still very clear in his mind. Just about to turn around, Ericsson was surprised by Alexia who was already behind him at the time.

"Ah..your..!!"  Ericsson's face was shocked. Until it makes him step back, stick with the sink.

"The fruit in the refrigerator is gone. Can you buy it again?" Alexia sulks but still wants fruit.

"Can't you steal it, like you did the first time. Then why are you whining now to buy?" Ericsson who does not understand the way of thinking of a Goddess.

Crossing hands to the chest, leaning against the wall. Make a not so happy expression.

"It should be ! but since I got a warning, so can't do anything that could harm humans anymore." Alexia is in a bad mood. 

"There is also a Goddess who steals from man only for a fruit." Ericsson shook her head at Alexia's behavior on this one.

"Well, then you'll buy it, won't you?" The Goddess gave her own conclusion.

"Of course not." After saying this, Ericsson left.

"Man sucks!" Alexia became increasingly upset with Ericsson, he gripped his fingers as if directing him to squeeze the man's head.

Returning to serve the customers, but the figure of the little boy still continued to be there. Ericsson tried to calm down and did not care about it, so that he could keep doing his job. But this time it was different, he was again disturbed by the appearance of a long-tongued woman with her hair down. Once again Ericsson made a mistake, he bumped into a male customer until he fell. Making the documents he brought wet with him exposed to coffee. The problem this time is quite serious. Ericsson was fired.

With a lethargic and disappointed face, Ericsson chose to go home. While on the way he accidentally saw a woman who was being robbed, he also helped the woman. Which made his hand hurt by being hit by a sharp weapon. But thank goodness the robber was finally overcome.

"Thank you for helping me!" Say sincerely beautiful woman with a very attractive look. Speaking in a soft tone as if melting the heart of anyone who hears it.

"Yes, you're welcome." Ericsson who then wanted to pass away but was restrained.

"Gosh, you're hurt, we need to get her to the hospital right away!" The woman frantically invites Ericsson to go to the hospital.

"No need, I can handle it." Speaking coldly the man refused the attention of the woman.

"Are you sure? Looks like the wound is pretty deep !" Still seemed worried about the condition of Ericsson who did not want to be taken to the hospital.

"It's okay, I can treat him at home. Then I'll go first." Ericsson wants to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Once again the man's steps came to a halt with the woman's voice.

"This is my business card, you can contact me if your condition is not much better.Once again thank you for helping me." While giving his card, the woman still looks worried with great regret that he let Ericsson go.

"Wulans..! A name that's quite suitable for the person." Ericsson left the place.
