Chapter 135
The place where he landed his lips on felt undeniably hot. It rapidly spread on my whole face as I stared at him in, feeling dumbfounded with what he had done to me.
Even though it was normal for a man to kiss his fiancee, even though I was betrothed to him since I was young, and he had been beside me in recent months, we had never had an intimate skin ship. The reason? One, I was in love with Tom. I had never considered myself to cheat on him even when he was still a spirit -a spirit who managed to acquire a solid body only to make love to me and took my virginity. Two, Sanji knew that I had that kind of relationship with Tom. He never said that he would give up on me, but he also never mentioned about our betrothal. Even though he was always beside me, and sometimes joked around about what’s his would be mine, he had never done something like this.
Yes, he had hugged me before, but it was only when I had nightmare when I took a nap in the afternoon. Today was the second time. In my mind, he was so mature and considerate, I couldn’t deny that I felt safe and comfortable around him. But, he had never kissed me before!
Even though it was only a kiss in my forehead, but still...
I didn’t know how I came out from his room, but I realized I had been standing in front of his door was when the sound of door closed traveled to my ears. But, instead of demanding explanation for what he did, I walked away with fuzzy mind.
For someone who had experienced naughty things, my response was surely pathetic. I only got what... a kiss on my forehead, but I had lost my mind. What happened to me? I should have not reacted like that! Even if he kissed me on my lips, or gave me a deep romantic kiss, I shouldn’t react like that!
Or... should I?
As soon as the thought of Sanji giving me a deep kiss on my lips entered my mind, my whole face flushed even more. I could feel the heat emanating from my face that I stopped my steps and sat on the stairs. I hid my furiously blushing face behind my arms as I tried to get rid of that image; image of Sanji and I engaged in a deep kiss.
.....
You must be crazy, Jane. You must be crazy, Jane.
I repeated those words over and over inside my head. I even tried to picture myself and Tom instead of Sanji, but it was unsuccessful. There was something inside told me that Sanji had a different charm with Tom. Since I had tasted the way Tom made love to me, how about Sanji? His mature and manly charms would surely give me different vibes and experience.
OH MY GOD! What a perverted girl you are, Jane! Pervert!
Up to that thought, I opened my eyes wide as I cursed myself. How could I fantasize about having sex with Sanji? What had happened to me, exactly? Since when did I become this pervert?
Before I could curse myself enough, the Kuntilanak from before appeared right before my eyes. Even though I was startled, I managed to hold myself, and thanks to her, I managed to divert my attention from my own dirty thought.
“So you can see me, indeed.” She sneered. Instead of long hair, this one had short hair, around her shoulders, but still in a mess. Her pair of bulging eyes looked especially scary with visible red veins. Her smile was unnaturally formed. There were red patches on her face to her neck, and I noticed a rope hanging from her neck.
Her clothes? If you think she was wearing a white dress, then you’re wrong. She was wearing a shirt, I was not sure with the color but I could see the flower pattern on it. She was also wearing what I thought should be a pencil skirt, but it was in tattered version. Even her flowery shirt was torn in some places. Her legs... If she were not a ghost, I would have praised her for her beautiful legs. Unfortunately, she was dead and somehow she lost her left shoe.
Was it another Cinderella story ghost version? Was she going to ask me about her left shoe?
Ah, where was Siji? Normally ghost wouldn’t get near me with Siji around. Since this ghost could approach me, it meant Siji was not around.
“Young girl, you can see me, can’t you?” The Kuntilanak asked impatiently as she followed my line of sights.
This ghost... I was checking around to make sure no one saw me talking to a ghost, but she blocked my sight. Glaring at her, I clicked my tongue in displeasure.
“If someone see me talking to you, and thinks that I am crazy, I’ll make sure you pay for that.” I gritted my teeth as I spoke. After that, I walked away.
The Kuntilanak looked surprised but her expression turned quickly. She floated behind me, following me to where I parked my scooter. “Can you help me?” She asked.
“No.” I replied hastily as I put on my helmet.
“Can you find my left shoe?” She appeared right on my face again, ignoring what I said, and even put on a scary appearance. Her smile turned wider and weirder with her face was close up to mine. She even said her sentence in a spooky manner that made me almost slapped her.
“Ah, you scared me!” I rubbed my chest to soothe the shock I felt while closing my eyes. After inhaling and exhaling several times, I finally opened my eyes and looked straight at the ghost who was now giggling uncontrollably.
“Do you think you’re Cinderella? Why are you asking me your left shoe? Go and sing in the tree, maybe your prince will be attracted by your singing and bring you your shoes! How would I know where you shoe was?” I scolded her. Her weird smile disappeared as soon as I started scolding her.
“Young girl, you must help me to find my shoe!” She glared at me while speaking frighteningly again.
“Ah, are you deaf? I said I don’t want to help you! I’m not even a prince so why did you ask me about your shoe?” I scolded her again impatiently. “If you disturb me again, I’m going to burn you.” I remembered the fire from the army. After I trained with Siji, Siji taught me how to take out some things from the other dimension to my dimension, including the fire.
And that was the only thing that I was willing to practice more and harder so that I could master it in no time. And I did it!
After saying that, the blue fire appeared on my palm. It didn’t feel hot at all. I only felt a bit warmth emitting from the fire, but it was not hot at all. No matter how much I let out, it would not feet hot at all. That’s why I didn’t get burn.
But, at the same time, the expression on that ghost face changed. Without waiting for my command, she retreated hastily while shaking her head. “No! No! No! Don’t come closer!” She shrieked loudly and in a fright. It seemed like she knew what fire was this.
I sneered. “You want me to help you, right? Then, let me help you.” I approached the ghost, but before I could take my third step, she disappeared.
“Eh? Where did she go?” I looked around me in confusion. Of course no one would answer me.
After making sure that the ghost was nowhere to be seen, I walked towards my scooter and rode it back to my house.
Half way to my house, I stopped the scooter and looked ahead of me. I saw something interesting. I didn’t know about it before, and I had never paid attention to it after I gained my ability, but now as I saw it again, I had a hunch that my previous assumption was correct.
Not to mention, I could see it very clear now that I was the Master of White Army.
