[COMPLETED ✔] Spectres: Season 1 - Male OC x Dreamcatcher JiU

Chapter 40

We have come a long way.

==========

The digital clock on the table beside a queen-size bed belongs to the girl called JiU showed the numbers 3:37 AM.

There was still more than two hours before the alarm will scream like hell, but a slender hand already slithered toward the button, turning it off.

JiU emerged from her thick warm blanket to the side of the bed, yawning loudly and scratching her head several times to mess up her already messed up hair even more.

She sighed and got up. Turning the light on, grabbing the towel, and kicked open the bathroom's door before getting inside.

Looking at herself in the mirror at the white clean sink, her face furrowed. "My god, I look so bad." She commented.

'What do you expect from someone who slept not more than one hour?'

"It's not like I don't want to, I couldn't." She said dejectedly.

'That's why I told you to empty your mind.'

She rolled eyes at the voice in her head. "Sure~ Easier said than done."

'Not really. I've tried and it's easy.' Gahyeon said with the sole purpose of to annoy her host which she succeeded.

JiU wasn't in the mood to entertain the spirit so she just ignored her and opened the mirror cabinet which displaying her reflection right now.

She took a bottle of shampoo and then closed it before she started washing her hair to every nook and cranny of her scalp, even to the roots of her hair.

'So, you're not gonna take a shower?' Gahyeon asked.

"I will, later. It's easier to shampoo your hair first rather than doing it while showering." She told Gahyeon her usual method.

Gahyeon was quiet but she imagined the girl probably nodding her head right now. She wished she can see her instead of just talking. That way it will be easier to figure out what was in her head.

During the process, both girls were quiet as JiU focused on washing her hair and Gahyeon focused on watching. It was kind of satisfying to watch so we couldn't blame the dead girl for doing so.

'Thank you for not telling them about my existence.' Gahyeon suddenly spoke.

"If you don't want them to know, why you didn't remind me last night?" JiU asked as she already prepared the question some times ago. Inside her head went silent before she heard Gahyeon chuckle seconds later.

'I don't know. Part of me wants them to know and the other part didn't. But now, I know for sure that I'll only trust you.' She said, totally making up her mind.

She knew that this isn't the end for JiU and she will be with her to help. She herself alone was enough to have this cruel fate so she won't ever let JiU face the same thing. For that, she needed to trust her and it was the same for JiU.

'Do you remember what I said last night about this won't be the last?'

JiU nodded.

'Will you trust me?'

"I already do." She replied short but with a firm answer.

Gahyeon smiled but of course, JiU couldn't see that.
