Ghostee !

Just go

3rd person's pov :

"Are you still doing it ? It's been one month already !" Black asks Beam as both of them sitting at the cornwr table of ghost cafe .

Beam nods "I am . I will collect every parts of the husk doesn't matter how much time it takes ."

Black shakes his head "I am talking about you sacrificing yourself to reincarnate the husk !"

"Yeah ! I told you before . Theat ghost became a husk because of me . I don't want to carry this burden forever ! And, there is only way he can be a ghost again ."

"That way is giving your thread connection to him . Beam then you will be a husk . Why don't you understand ?" Black asks again.

"I do understand , Black and believe me I have thought about it thoroughly." Beam replies "now you tell me , can you visit Akki husk's primary school ?"

"I can . I know that school . But why do you think some parts will be there ?"

Beam sighs "I don't know whether it will be there or not . But , I can't think of any other place right now . I got half of his body but other half ..."

"If I get any part , how to collect it ?"

"Binding charm ! I have learnt it from grandpa . You don't need to do anything . You just need to search & inform me . Then I will visit there when Forth will be asleep ."

"I can't believe , they are helping you with your suiside attempt ! If Forth knows ....."

"Black ! You promised me , you wouldn't tell Forth . Also , they just did what I asked . They are not fault !" Beam cuts Black's words .

"But wouldn't Forth know one day ?"

"He will . But not now . I will inform him when the searching will be finished ." Beam says in a sad voice . "Then I can have a little good time with him like before ...."

Black rolls his eyes "he is a human , he has ego but you a ghost . What are you holding onto ? Why didn't you try to talk with him in this one month ?"

"He doesn't want to talk with me , Black ." Beam sighs .

"Bullshit ! I can see him boring holes at our table since the moment you sat here ."

"That's because he keeps an eye on me after Akki incident . He was watching if I am creating any other trouble for him !" Beam pouts .

.................

"I got another part of him !" Ritha exclaims happily when Forth went to close the cafe and only Beam , grandpa and Mimi left alone .

Beam blinks "where ?"

"At the public library . Akki used to go there often . So , I decided to give it a check . So when Forth sleeps today .. you have to go there ." Ritha replies .

Beam nods . "Ok !"

In this whole husk hunting event of one month , the most active worker was always Ritha . Beam has realised already Ritha loves Forth . And Ritha too has realised Beam's feelings ....

So even when Beam is already a ghost and there is no need to worry , yet she wants Beam to disappear .

Beam gives away a fake sigh . He wish he could take a little more time to find the husk . Atleast , he could stay here a litttle more . Even when Forth doesn't talk with him unless it's absolutely necessary, still ......

How he wish he could stay more but like the two days when he came here . Because after the incident , everybody seems distant . Mimi doesn't command about him these days ....

Grandpa was never friendly either , but Forth leaves a gap everyday in Beam's ghost body .

"What are you thinking ? You aren't thinking about backing up now ? Are you ?" Ritha asks breaking Beam's train of thoughts .

Beam chuckles "no ! I am not . I will go !"

"Where ?"

Beam looks up hearing a deep voice . Forth looks straight into Beam's eyes "where you going ?"

Beam looks back at Forth in silence .

Forth frowns "where were you yesterday night ?"

Beam looks at grandpa . Grandpa nods slowly indicating Forth was asleep the whole night . He looks back at Forth "here ... at dinning ."

"You weren't . You were outside and you went so far that I felt tuck in my chest . Where were you ?" Forth inquires Beam with a serious face .

Beam grimaces. Should he tell Forth the truth now ? But he is yet to collect ...

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh !!!!!"

Beam comes out of his thought hearing a sharp shout . He looks at the source .

Ritha is sitting on the floor holding her ankle . "Aaaahhhh ! My ...leg ... p'Forth , it's hurting ...."

Forth hurriedly sits on the floor beside Ritha "what happened ? How did you fall ?"

Ritha cries more " I felt a push out of sudden . I think it's a ... ghost .."

Forth frowns "Ritha , we can see ghosts . Come on , try to stand up ."

Ritha leans on Forth's shoulder "I can't . The push was hard . P'Forth ... I think it's .. the husk . Akki !!"

Beam frowns this time . It is not Akki ! Ritha knows that . Akki never intend to harm anyone .

"Ritha , if Akki is here , then he will hurt me . Not you . I made him husk ." Forth replies while trying to make Ritha stand up .

Ritha leans more on Forth "No ! Akki was my ghost . I was his helper , p' Forth . Not you . He will harm me , first ."

Forth stays silent with a big frown on his face . "Then ... from now on , stay here . I will protect you if any parts of him come to hurt you . Afterall, he was my failure."

"No ! Don't blame yourself na .. it was the situation . Not you ." Ritha whines .

Forth sighs "yeah ! Yeah ! Whatever , try to stand at least ! I need to see it it's serious or not . If serious , then we need to visit a doctor !"

Ritha tries to stand but fails ."I can't P'. I need some rest . I will try after some time . Can you give me some water ?"

Forth looks at Ritha's ankle one last time then nods "ok ! Give me a minute ."

...............

Ritha looks at Beam as soons as Forth leaves for the kitchen "leave now , go to the library . I will keep P'Forth busy ."

Beam frowns "you are not hurt !"

"Does it matter ? I saved you from his inquiry . Now go ."

"But ... Forth will search for me , if I leave now ."

"He will not . I will keep him busy . Go ! And take Grandpa and Mimi with you . This part is big . You may need help !"

Beam looks at Ritha with denial "but Forth ...."

Ritha glares at Beam irritated "just leave ! I can handle P'Forth alone ."

................

(I have a real question .
How many of you are actually here for a happy ending even after knowing Beam is dead ?

Don't you have too much confidence? 🤔🤔 )
