Tanya's POV
I ran away from them. I reached the house but..I'm not a baby!! I decided to meet the ghost and went to the coast.
I was shaking hard when I finally reached it. I was waiting for it and checked the time. 11:35pm.. I sat on the rock and I was so scared and I suddenly fell asleep.
I woke up..What!! I fell asleep..hahaha. There's no ghost after all.. I stood up and declared my victory.. I reached my hand high and tried to reach the stars..Stars?! Isn't it morning already?! I looked at the surroundings and it was still nighttime?! I checked my phone.. 2:49am ...What!!
I felt a shiver. I took a slowly step forward.
"Watch it!"A guy yelled and pulled me...I stumbled above him..He is good looking...what?! No time for that.. I stood up again.
"Wh---who are you??!!" I said while stammering.
"Watch your step here...it's slippery here and would you care to say thanks to your savior..you almost fell there.." he explained and he stood after that.
"Sorry..." I said.
"My name is Ray..you?"He asked while smiling.
"Tanya.." I replied
"Cute name...and what is a girl like you wandering around here at night?" He asked and Cute?! really.. my face is all red now..
I explained and he laughed..
"What's so funny??And you what are you doing here anyway?? I might suspect you as a ghost."
"hahaha...maybe your right...I'm here just to merely observe the coast look at it.." He pointed the coast."Beautiful ain't it??I often came here early to observe this delightful view..weird right? I dunno but this place always draw me here..this spectacle is just amazing.." He said while he was smiling brightly and my heart skipped a beat.
Suddenly the sunrise came..It was almost 5:00am already...
"Ah...I actually spend the night here...so I'll be going now.." I said and he waved goodbye. Maybe that's just an excuse because my face was already bright red...why?! I looked at the cliff and he just sat there on the rock. I smiled and went back.
My sister hugged me when she saw me.
"You worried us Tanya...when we came back we thought that you were asleep but your not there..We searched for you all night.." she said...but my mind forgot about the incident last night... because all I am thinking is HIM...is he still there? Will I meet him again?
"Yeah...yeah..." I replied back and headed straight back to my room.
" What's up with her...she's in a good mood lately." I heard my sister.
I slept again and checked the time.. 2:43pm..I hurriedly went out of the store and headed to the coast.. I reached it but he's not there..the next day and the next..he still wasn't there..I decided to stop..
The time passed so fast and tomorrow I'll be going back to the city.. it's almost the next semester.
I heard Gab and Ian chat..
"Dude I saw a shadow of a man last night at the coast.. he was sitting on a rock up there...like waiting for someone...it's been like this since last week...is it the ghost??" He said and laughed..
"Impossible...maybe just a tourist..hahaha..besides I made that up.." He laughed...
He was there waiting for me? impossible ... I always go there but he never showed up...wai-- I always go there in the afternoon but the last I saw him it was around nighttime...I checked my phone and it was... 9:30pm...Still early but this will be my last night here.
I set up an alarm and slept.. I woke up but it did not rang.. I checked the time..4:45 am..
I overslept... I hurriedly went out.
"Hey Tanya where are you going!!"My sister shouted.
I reached it but he wasn't there...I didn't make it...Water came rolling down my cheeks..and the sunrise came and I cried..but why am I crying??What is he to me anyway...
" Beautiful right??" I heard someone talk...
I looked behind..and he was there.. leaning on a tree.. He approached me and sat on the rock.
"Come.. won't you join me?" He said..
" Why do you always come here in the morning?" I asked.
"I don't know... either" he replied.
" It's kinda funny because I fell in love with a guy in just one night...weird right??"I stood up..
I saw his shocked expression..
"It's not weird..."He said and he stood up too..
He draw closer and hugged me tightly...and I felt tears flowing in his eyes.
"We'll see each other again right?? I'll return I promise.." I said
" It's better if you don't return anymore.." He said to me and he let go of me..
"Why?!" I asked..
He drew closer at the edge of the cliff..and he smiled..
" I don't know why but you're the first person that heard me and the first person I can touch...Since I've been here.. all they can see of me is my shadow but not my true appearance even up close..They can't hear me but you can ..I tried to touch them but my hand just pass through them like a wind..but when you were about to fall and I grabbed you..I can touch you...since then I knew I wasn't alone anymore...I thought you will visit me again but you did not...so I wondered if I'm alone again..you came here again but you're leaving...I'm sorry but it's not possible for us to be together.." he explained while the sun were reflecting at him.
"You were the ghost that died here am I right? Is it true that you fell to here?? Your girlfriend's death..led to your demise..am I right?" I asked straightforwardly while I'm trying to held my tears.
"I did die here but she didn't kill me at all.. I went here because this is her favorite spot, there at the rock she often sat there and I always take a picture of her...she died in a car accident.. I decided to spend my summer here to spend the last memory of her... I decided to take a photograph of it once again... I took a picture of it and reminded me of her.. I knew I can't live without her..so-"I stopped him.
"You jumped right?" I continued and my tears bursted..he held my hand..
" I'm very happy that I met you..maybe it's destiny..you're the one who saved me and helped me move on.. THANK YOU.." he held me and our lips touch..for a moment his touch is getting lighter and when I opened my eyes he was no longer there.

-+- POV
I decided to go to the coast again..I feel like seeing the view again..
I reached it eventually and saw a girl, deep-brown hair..She is kinda familiar to me..
She looked like she was waiting for someone I guess..She stood up and walked back..My eyes followed her..and I looked once more at the coast...it was so beautiful... I approached the edge of it..
What a beautiful scenery...what a sad expression she showed to it..What's her reason to be sad here..does this scenery have something to do with it? I wonder what's it's story?
