Yuan parked his car in the parking lot of the apartment building where Rose lived.
After parking his car, Yuan rushed out of the car, then into the apartment building.
Yuan's footsteps looked wide, the man walked quickly, wanting to meet the woman who had just left a few hours ago from before him.
Arriving at the door of Rose's apartment, Yuan immediately took the spare key of the apartment he had been secretly storing. Yuan deliberately kept it in case something crucial happened.
As of right now, to Yuan, the current situation was extremely precarious for him.
“Rose.” call Yuan when he has entered the apartment.
But a few seconds passed, Yuan still did not receive an answer from the owner of the apartment, Rose. Even Rose's apartment was uninhabited, all the lights were not on, the whole room looked pitch black, as the window curtains were also tightly closed.
“Rose, it's me, Yuan. I'm sorry I went straight into your apartment without your permission first, I can explain that later. Now, can you come out and we start talking about the matter last afternoon?” yuan said, he still appeared to be standing in front of the open entrance of the apartment.
No answer, quiet. Only silence greeted the man.
“Rose, are you asking me to play hide and seek? Yes, your apartment at this time does feel creepy, it is suitable to play that game.” Yuan said while closing the door of the apartment. Then then, he began to feel the wall to look for a light switch.
It didn't take long for Yuan to find the button, as he had memorized enough with every corner of Rose's apartment room.
After pressing the button to turn on the lights, the living room of the small apartment was finally bright, driving away the darkness with the light of the lights that had been lit.
“Didn't she go home to her apartment?” muttered Yuan while turning on one by one the light switches in Rose's apartment.
After finishing turning everything on, Yuan seemed to stop in front of a door, it was Rose's room door.
Yuan's heart said he wanted to enter the room, but Yuan refused.
Back when Yuan was still hitching a ride in Rose's apartment, the man had never had the chance to enter the room at all.
Not that there was no chance, but he himself did not have the intention to enter the room.
“Is he in his room?” yun asked himself. “But seen from the condition of his apartment that dark as before. Rose definitely has not returned to her apartment.” Yuan said.
“Rose, where are you really? You're making me worry. You can't even be reached at all, your phone's dead, I really can't reach you. Ck, now I have to how to solve the problem with you?” muttered Yuan, still in a standing position in front of Rose's room.
Long enough for Yuan to stand at the door of the room, he finally decided to turn around and go towards the living room.
But when his body just wanted to spin backwards. A coughing sound from inside Rose's room suddenly sounded, for a while, Yuan felt goosebumps, as the coughing sound felt heavy but also light, making Yuan feel a hard time guessing, as Yuan felt a slight cough, is that the sound of a cough belonging to a woman or a man?
“Rose?” call Yuan as he moves closer and closer to Rose's door.
At a time like this, I somehow suddenly remembered her mother Rose who died not too long ago. Yeah, no two months ago his mother died. What don't-don't~
Uh! There is no way, in this world where there is such a thing as a ghost. I, Yuan Mauli Gavin, do not believe in ghosts. Even if the ghost existed, I wouldn't be afraid.
Yeah, I wouldn't be scared.
But, why— there is no authentic from the inside huh? I called Rose, isn't that Rose? Or maybe it was Rose's brother?
“Rose, are you inside?” yuan asked, the man's hand was already seen holding the handle of the room door, preparing to open it and go inside, but his little heart was hesitant.
Enter or not yes? — Inner Yuan.
Uh! Stupid time with ghosts or anyone in Rose's room, the most important thing now is that I have to go inside, make sure who's in this room.
After long enough to argue with his mind, Yuan finally chose to go into Rose's room which turned out not to be in the key.
The sound of the open door made Yuan's adrenaline rush a little faster, especially when he suddenly remembered the mysterious coughing sound, what a burst of Yuan's heart could currently be heard without a stethoscope aid.
“Rose, it's me Yuan. I entered yes.” said Yuan who then opened the width of the room door so that he could go inside.
When the door opened, the first thing Yuan saw was darkness, just like when he first entered the apartment.
“Rose, did you also forget to turn on your room light?” yuan asked, strengthening her heart that felt a little quivering in fear, as her gaze unintentionally caught a white-colored sileut that seemed to be sitting on the edge of Rose's bed.
But Yuan still tried to think positively and dismissed all kinds of negative thoughts that were forcing into his heart.
“Rose, are you okay? Why just shut up? Are you still mad at me?” yuan asked as he walked slowly closer to Rose's bed.
“Rose.” called Yuan when he reached the left side of the bed, opposite the sileut of someone who looked dressed in white.
“Yuan? Why are you in my room?” ask Rose.
But strangely, the voice came from the entrance of the room, instead of coming from the figure in white clothes before Yuan at this moment. That fact, made Yuan immediately turn his head with a heart that had started running a marathon.
When Yuan turned his head, Rose was standing at the door of his room carrying a plastic bag that seemed to contain food.
Seeing Rose standing at the door of the room, Yuan was astonished and confused.
If the one standing in front of the door was Rose, then who was the person in white clothes I saw sitting on the bedside of Rose earlier? — Inner Yuan who had shuddered in horror.
But because of his high curiosity, Yuan then turned his head slowly. Yuan turned his head back towards the bed, ascertaining whether the sileut of the white-clothed person was still there or not.
But when Yuan had turned his head, the man saw nothing there, there was no shadow of anyone let alone the sileut of one's body, all Yuan saw was emptiness.
Not very funny, did I just meet a ghost?
It must be just my feeling. I still can't believe it's called a ghost.
“What's Yuan?” asked Rose who was still standing in front of the door of her room.
Yuan was so surprised, he jumped onto Rose's bed. The man hid behind a blanket with a body that seemed to tremble in fear.
Then not long after, Yuan could hear the sound of laughter breaking from a woman who was no stranger to him. It was not the sound of laughter from Rose, but from Rose's friend Yana.
Knowing that he was the victim of someone's ignorance, Yuan immediately came out of hiding behind a blanket. The man was seen throwing Rose's blanket everywhere. Then seen by Yuan, the girl in white clothes laughed while holding her stomach.
“Is there anything funny?!” asked Yuan in a cold tone.
“Yuan, Yana is just kidding, you don't get angry like that.” Rose said as she pressed the switch button near her bedroom door.
“You allied with him to prank me huh?!” yuan asked Rose who seemed to be walking over to pick up the blanket that Yuan threw earlier.
“What? Allied to pranking you? What the hell am I doing that for? You think I'm a person who has a lot of time to relax until you have to waste time working on you.” Rose replied as she folded her blanket, then put it back on her bed.
“Keep the meaning just now what?!” asked Yuan, then he seemed to turn to look at Yana who was still laughing. “You, what's your name?”
“Yana.” says Yana with her casual tone.
“Yes, you're Yana, what's the max of you scaring me like that? What if I have heart disease? You want to take responsibility if I die ha?” yuan.
Yana was seen smiling with a grin, she looked at Yuan fearlessly.
“Ck, I know that this esteemed young master Yuan is a coward. If I knew that, I wouldn't scare you. And besides you still look fine, you don't die either, your heart still beats well, right? So no need to worry. Think of it like being on a haunted house ride.”
“You, how dare you say I'm a coward, who's a coward?!” said Yuan who did not accept the words from Yana earlier.
“Yuan, come on, Yana's just kidding with you. Why should you be angry and complicate it.” said Rose with her hands that had choked in front of her chest while leaning against the wall that was near the window of her room.
“After all you are next time do not carelessly enter the room without permission from the owner, if like just know the consequences.” said Rose
“What? You— huh, Rose, be honest with me, you really allied with him to prank me right?” ask Yuan again.
“Ck, I told you, I don't have time to relax to do that. Besides you saw it for yourself, I just came with a plastic bag. I know that Yana would prank you like that. Yes, it was the time Yana was standing behind you, I know, but that doesn't mean I'm taking part in Yana's ignorant plan. If you don't believe just ask Yana.” said Rose.
The girl then seemed to walk towards the table where she put a plastic bag containing food that she bought from the minimarket.
“If you have no more business, get out of my room. My room is not open to the public, especially for men. Hurry out.” Rose said as she stood in front of the door, waiting for Yuan to come out from inside her room.
Slowly, Yuan descended from Rose's bed, then walked towards the exit of the room.
But when he passed by Yana who was wearing white clothes, namely a sleeping dress. Yana looks smiling smirk towards Yuan, making the man feel like pulling Yana's long, kuntilanak-like hair.
“Yuan, hurry.” said Rose, he was impatient to wait for Yuan who was seen pausing to look at Yana sharply.
“Yes yes, I came out.” Yuan said, the man was then seen coming out from inside Rose's room.
After Yuan came out, Rose closed the door to her room again, but before the door closed, Rose seemed to throw her thumb at Yana.
“Good joke Yana.” Rose said through her gaze.
Yana also smiled widely while fusing her index finger with her thumb to form a small circle. “Of course.” says Yana lirih.
After that, Rose closed the door to her room. Then turned to look at Yuan who seemed to be sitting on the dining table chair while staring blankly ahead, the man seemed to still be hit by heavy shock because of the act of Yana earlier.
“What do you need to come here?” ask Rose.
“Absolutely cannot yes if I come to the residence of my own girlfriend?” ask Yuan.
Rose sighed, then walked over to Yuan, not actually wanting to get close to Yuan, but Rose just wanted to put her groceries on the dining table which happened to be near the man.
“It's not like that I mean, I asked about your purpose in coming here. What brings you here?”
“Have you forgotten about our fight this afternoon?” ask Yuan.
Rose was silent for a moment, but then she seemed to exhale.
“I forgot about it quickly. Yes, it was all thanks to Yana who had comforted me and straightened my mind. But I think my decision to stop working at your mother's restaurant was good. Because tomorrow I'm starting an internship. Yana said, interning at her father's law firm was in salary, although not a full salary but it was quite high.” said Rose.
“Begukah. Then it seems like I don't need to give this to you.” Yuan said as he pulled out a brown envelope from behind his leather jacket.
“What is it?” rose asked curiously.
“It was from my mother. He told me to give it to you. One more thing, you don't misunderstand my mom, she fired you for moving you to work for her friend's company. I don't know which of my mom's friends are, but the point is it's a company like a legal consultancy, maybe some kind of lawyer or something. But the salary is good, the working time is also very flexible, not always face to face.” said Yuan.
“I'm just an early fourth year student, I'm still seventh semester, how can I already work as a legal consultant?” said Rose.
“Not, you are only an assistant, because that's your work time is quite relaxed and certainly will not interfere with your internship or your college.” said Yuan.
Rose seemed silent, she was fondling, wanting to accept it or not.
“I'll think about it. Tell Aunt Ana, thank you very much. Also tell me that I'm really sorry that I was probably being disrespectful in front of him. I also did not misunderstand him from the beginning. After all, Ana's aunt isn't a bad person, and she's too good to be a bad person.” Rose said.
Yuan smiled at him.
“Sgratitude.” said.
