The Spectre

Chapter Thirty Four : Planning for Payback

When I opened my eyes I was gasping for air. It felt like someone had tried to strangulate me causing me to pant like hell. I went disoriented for awhile and almost didn't recognized my room, I felt like I'm still in GD's. I shiver as I remember what I saw a moment ago.

"Arya? Are you alright?" It was GD's voice. He was standing at the side of my bed looking troubled, I almost forgot he's here. I stared at him blankly and he sat in front of me. "I'm sorry you had to get through that. I just want you to see what really happened in order for you to believe me. I'm so sorry I never--"

I cut him off by hugging him tightly, if he could still breathe I think it would choke him but I know now that he couldn't so I held him much tighter. I want to feel his body. He's here now, that's all that matters. I can still hold him. I don't care whatever he is and even if I'm still a little scared he's still GD. He's still the boy that I like. The boy that I love. My tears are threatening to fall once more and I bit my lip. No, I wont cry. I don't want to cry anymore. My chest is still heavy from the crying I did awhile back.

"H-How did it end up like this.." I whispered. We're still locked with my embrace. I felt GD let out a deep breath before answering.

"Eomma and Jinn, they weren't there that night. They went to my aunt's house and stayed the night there. My aunt was sick, she's eomma's only sister and she wanted to check up on her. I was left there. Gyuri and Jaejoong knew that I was home alone and they wanted to drink. The rest, you already saw.. I was drunk, had an asthma attack, and those Diazepam's finished me off." GD answered. He brushed my hair with his hand. "It's alright now, you're back here with me.."

I let go of him and looked into his eyes and I can see pain, sorrow, and regret. That's enough for me to know what he really feels right now.

"Are you afraid of me? Now that you've found out what I truly am?" GD asked me with worried eyes. To be honest, I am. I know he can see it in my face but I shrugged.

"No, I'm not. I'm not afraid of anything." I told him. But somehow, deep inside of me, I wish what he had told me wasn't true.

"I know you are. I can hear it in your thoughts.."

My eyes widened in shock. "Y-You can hear my t-thoughts?" So it means..

"Yes I can. And I'm sorry for that too but I couldn't help it. I'm a ghost. There are some things I can do even if I don't intend on doing it." His tone was apologetic and sincere.

"Of course." I let out a small laugh, "Of course.." And then it made me remember all the thoughts I had about him before every time we're together and I couldn't help not to blush a little. I looked away. GD took hold of my chin and made me look at him.

"You don't have to feel ashamed of yourself. If you could only read my thoughts too, I also think of you the same." He gave me a warm smile as he said so. I ran a finger through my hair and blushed some more. And then I remembered something.

"Wait. What about Jimin? He's a ghost too right? What happened to him?" I asked GD looking eager.

"I drowned."

I almost jumped from my bed when I heard another voice from the corner of my room. My eyes widened as I saw Jimin standing there. I really have to get used to this. "Jimin.."

Jimin smirked and walked towards us. "Don't be scared noona, I'm harmless too. Just like GD hyung."

"H-How.. Why.." I want to ask him a lot of questions. I want to know if his death has something to do with GD's.

"I'll tell you." He sat on the other side of my bed and I backed away a little. He tilted his head and looked at me questioningly.

"You're not going to do that thing to me are you? The thing that GD did to me awhile ago." I asked him nervously. It was freaking scary and I don't want to experience it again.

Jimin let out a laugh. "No, noona. I won't. That would be too much torture for you." I nodded a few times in relief.

"Good, good.." I told him. GD smiled at me playfully and I smack him on the chest. "Damn you." I pretend to give him an evil glare. "Go on, Jimin. What happened?"

"Well I stayed a little late at school because I had tutorial classes. I accidentally overheard Jaejoong and Gyuri talking about what happened to GD hyung on one of the lavatories. They saw me and I told them I didn't hear a thing. I left in a hurry but Jaejoong followed me. I ran and ended up at the pool, I was nervous and scared I just ran and I didn't know what to do. He cornered me, I couldn't swim. I know he could see the terror in my face. Gyuri must've realized I'm too afraid and she told him to push me into the pool. He did without hesitation. He looked like Gyuri's puppet and went berserk. They didn't leave me until they made sure I'm dead." Jimin's blue eyes looked at me with sadness.

"They killed you.." I muttered in disbelief. "How could they do that.."

"It happens when people are desperate to cover up their crimes." GD answered me.

"They're sick. It's sick." I shook my head and I almost wanted to puke. I know Gyuri is evil, but Jaejoong? He was nice to me. Looks can really be deceiving. Poor Bora, her baby's father is a killer.

"This is the reason why I don't want you to know what really happened and get involved. I'm worried it would cost you your life." GD told me worriedly.

"Nothing will happen to me don't worry. But I won't let this slide. Now that I know the truth I have to do something." I answered him firmly.

"What are you going to do, noona?" Jimin asked me.

"I'll tell you guys soon." I answered Jimin. "But first things first, I think your mother and sister should know about this." I told GD. "I've met your sister Jinn, she knew I can see you. And I promised her that I will tell her what I know once I talked to you."

"You've met Soo Jin? But they'll report this to the authorities for sure." GD told me with furrowed eyebrows.

"No. I won't let them. I have a plan. And it's going to be big. Jaejoong and Gyuri will have a taste of their own medicine. I won't get easy on them this time." I can feel the rage consuming every part of my body right now. "Just trust me on this one." I told GD with fierce eyes.
