Aftermath of the Other One

It has been 5 days since all of those crazy events occurred. You know, with the whole ghost thing!

It might be a bit weird to have the ghost Izana around but to be honest, I feel more secure knowing that he's always watching me.. hopefully not always. If you know what I mean.

About boss Koko, I wonder what happened to him after that trip together with Inupi. I sometimes think he's drowning himself in his tears. Maybe I'm the reason for that one. Sorry..

<👻>

It's a Friday afternoon and you just had that burst of motivation to finish the job early. That on-going motivation resulted in you having lots of free time hours before the bank closes.

Your boss, Koko, put you on a long break. It's an appreciation for your hard work today.

Inupi dropped by your workplace to see how you're doing. As usual, he has this presenting innocent smile.

"I've never seen you have this kind of energy before. Where did you get it?" Inupi asked.

"Oh, it's nothing!" you brushed it off while having this big smirk on your face.

"Did you get to see Mikey today? He's the only one who could make you do all kinds of things." he took a guess even though the answer was quite obvious already for him.

Just hearing his name makes you smile from ear to ear and hide your face because you can feel your cheeks blushing.

"Don't mention his name here, Inupi!" you whispered loudly.

"Why not? It's not like anyone would hear us in this area. Look, there's no one here other than us." he laughed.

"He's not wrong though. I'm invisible except to you, Y/n." Izana came in, floating from behind you, then spoke out of nowhere.

Your eyes slid to where he's floating around, holding your grin. "Uhm.. I guess you're right. Say, why did we talk here outside?"

Inupi looked around the place then chuckled as he realized it. "I don't know either! Do you want to go inside?" he responded.

"Yeah. If you don't mind, I'll ask Koko to join us later. It's a Friday anyway. He can take some time off of work." you replied, glancing at the entrance of the bank.

"I was planning to invite him but you do it. He'll for sure come with us if you're the one who will ask." Inupi said.

"And why is that? Aren't you way closer to him?" you asked, confused on his response.

"Uh.. you see, Y/n. I don't get to talk to Koko that much these past few days." he answered, having this guilty face.

"Ohh. Yeah, I understand." you spoke, laughing it off at the end

'Dude, I just saw you talking to him on the phone a while ago. Stop lying to me.' you said in your mind.

"I'll be going back to the store now. Draken must be waiting for me. See you later, Y/n." Inupi left, walking back to the motor shop where he works.

"You won't be home early?" Izana asked, crossing his arms as he spoke.

"Probably not. I'm definitely gonna get myself drunk for the night." you answered.

"With those two?" he continued to ask, flying as he circles around you.

"Yep. It's not the first time so don't worry. We always do this when we're free!" you responded, smiling joyfully.
