5. Is She, She?

I have a girlfriend, she's crazy beautiful. She's the owner of the mansion beside ours. She's so rich and also, a beautiful creature. She's caring, sweet, and lastly, she's my best girl.

Now, I'm getting ready for our date later. I do not know if I'll wear tuxedo or just a simple polo with denim pants. I sighed, maybe, I'll just wear a simple one which will fit on her favorite white dress.

My girlfriend, Cielle, told me to go on her mansion first before going to our meeting place. Her parents wanna meet their daughter's boyfriend so I decided to go there and be open for her dear parents.

Their house is just a walking distance so I decided not to use Mercedes-Benz, and jog instead.

Sweat all over my face are kinda disgusting but tiredness is worth it when you're gonna meet your girl's parents after. I inhaled then exhaled because of the nervous that I'm feeling right now. It's my first time meeting her parents so this is really a kind of nervous.

I tap the bell so that she can here me and know that I'm already here. But what a disappointment when an old woman appeared and opened the gate for me. "What is it, sir?" She's a little bit eerie but I still talked to her. Maybe, she's one of their maids.

"Where's Cielle, manang? I'm his boyfriend," I said then smiled weakly.

"Huh? Sir? But ma'am Cielle is already dead. It's been three years, sir." I arc an eyebrow. Is she kidding? I'm so serious here, 'no. I shook my head. "She's not dead, manang. Just open this gate and let me enter their mansion. Don't make a joke, it doesn't make sense."

"Haays, sir. What can I do? Okay, enter this mansion and thank me later." She went outside and grabbed a taxi. I thought she's their maid, but maybe not.

I entered the mansion and I saw plants growing wild, their garden are very relaxing due to their amazing plants which is more on grasses and not flowers. This is full green.

I decided to enter their main door and I was shocked and stunned because of its beautiful big chandelier, which is made of gold and diamonds. They are indeed wealthy.

"Babe." And nothing's more beautiful than my girl. I saw her on their shining staircase with her favorite white dress. She's with her perfect smile. If the chandelier is stunning then she's more and the most stunning. My girl is gorgeous like a goddess.

I smiled and went on her direction. "Hi, babe! I missed you."

"I miss you too, my baby. Let's go to the dining area, they are waiting for you." Oh! Maybe they prepared too much. "Sure, Cielle, my pleasure."

As we entered the dining, I saw a lot of plates but there is no one so I asked about it and she replied, "Just wait, babe. You'll see them soon." I don't know the feeling that I'm feeling right now. Her words gives me chills, it's my first time hearing her talking like that.

Because of chills, I remembered the old woman's words so I once again, I asked Cielle. "Babe, the old woman opened the gate for me and she said that you're already dead. She told me that it's been three years. Sounds creepy."

I heard her laugh for a minute. As she laugh, the thunders roared and lighting appeared. 'What the hell is this?', I asked unto myself. My hands and trembling right now, and my heart's beating so damn fast.

"And you believed her or not?"

I shook my head, "Of course not. You're alive and kicking here in front of me so what's her point?" She smiled creepily which made me feel nervous. Oh, man! What is going on?

"What if it's true?" She stood up. She walked and I saw her stopped on their mini kitchen. "What will you do?" Her questions are difficult but I know that it is impossible so I answered her, "If it's true, then I'll die to be with you." Sounds cliché but it's a fact.
