THEIR order finally arrived. Haruki’s eyes glittered. It was like a feast. There are so many foods and it all look delicious. “Liked what you see?” he asked.

“Yeah. It’s mouth watering!”

He snicker. “Eat it and you’ll like it even more.”

“Okay.” She grabbed the knife and fork then sliced a meat. She eat it and smiled. “Hmm… This is so delicious!” she beamed.

Holton’s eyes were filled with amazement. She’s really beautiful, he thought. That day, not only his stomach was satiated but also his eyes because of the delicious food and the delicious lady—I mean pretty lady in front of him. Wait, he’s not thinking that she’s seducing him or something, right? Uhm… You know. Haruki flipping her hair… Greeting him ‘hey’ with a sexy voice… then uhmm… His face suddenly turn red when he thought about. 

“Holton!” she yelled.

“Y-yes… Yes?” he stammered. About the seducing thing… that is so not her. And his reaction when she called his attention? That is so not him! He wanted to pounce himself. What’s happening to you, Holton? You look worse than you’re fans! Remember your poise, dude, because you look like an idiot!

“Aren’t you gonna eat?”

“Ugh… I’m done eating.”

She glanced at his empty plates. “Oh, yeah. Well, I’m done, too.”

“Then, where do you want to go next?”

“Uhm… Can we go home now? I just feel uneasy.”

“Are you sick?” he asked as he placed the back of his hand on her forehead. His smiling face saddened.

“No. I guess I was just tired.”

He just nodded and raise a hand to call a waiter’s attention. “Combien est notre projet de loi?” “How much is our bill?”

“Ici, monsieur.” “Here, sir.” The waiter showed him the receipt.

He revealed his wallet and gave the payment. “Ici, garder la monnaie.” “Here, keep the change.”

“Merci, mademoiselle, monsieur.” The waiter bowed and started to clean their table.

He stood up. “Let’s go, Haruki.” he said as he held out a hand.

“Okay.” She accepted that hand as she stood up.

“Avoir un bon voyage.” “Have a safe trip.” The security guard said as they get out of the café.

-

“WELCOME back, masters.” The servants greeted them as they arrived. Holton followed her until they reach her room.

“Uhmm… I’ll be going inside.” she said as she opened the door.

“Aren’t you gonna say something?” he asked. He looked like he’s expecting something.

“Ah! I enjoyed the tour and the food. Thank you.” She smiled.

“You’re welcome.” He smiled back.

After that, she immediately closed the door. He just waved good night at the closed-door as if he could see Haruki inside. His smile disappeared. What a pity for a handsome man like him! He’s expecting something. What is it? Well, something like… a kiss? He slapped his forehead. What the heck we’re you thinking!

-

HARUKI enter the room where her body was. She’s lying on a bed, hugging a pillow while daydreaming. She seemed so happy and smiling by herself!

Wait a second. Does her body like that Holton man? He might be the one who took care of her body but liking him? He’s only a stranger, a total stranger! He’s not even a friend or a family friend. She doesn't even know who that Holton is. What he really is… Where he came from… Who knows? That Holton might actually kill her body and it will be impossible for her soul to go back!
