Enigma: Being Chased By A Sly Ghost Husband

"He? Who is that he?" Ryujin asked.

Although she was inquisitive to know the answer, a sharp pain went through her head, and all of a sudden, a certain type of nervousness began to rise within her. She could exactly pinpoint the reason behind it, but it appeared that she was reluctant to hear the answer now.

"You are not ready yet to know," Aera replied, "Any way, if you are done with the breakfast, just watch the television or something. I have to leave for work now, and don't you dare leave the premises. I swear I will be breaking your legs if that happens."

"You won't do that; you are too sweet for such a violent task," Ryujin vocalised.

"Shin Ryujin, are you challenging me? I don't mind doing it," Aera spoke out— staring at Ryujin sternly.

"Your overprotective side is so hot, Aera. Keep up with it, and you will have me head over heels for you in no time. I swear you are like my prince from the fairy tales.

I knew that they were lying when they said how princes from fairy tales don't exist. They were just being sour how they are not there in their life," Ryujin stated while a sparkle appeared in her eyes.

Shaking her head, Aera spoke out, "Someone should truly learn how to butter up from you."

"I am bored!" Ryujin exclaimed as she fell back on to the bed.

Although Min Aera told her to make herself at home, there was not many things Ryujin was able to do at here, considering how it was still a stranger's house.

Shin Ryujin tried to keep herself entertained with the television, but it did not take her long to get tired of it.

Maybe the fact that she was not allowed to go outside made her more restless today. Usually, she would have no problem with sitting over at him, but today, she did not have the mood to do so.

"Shin Ryujin, stop. You can't think of something crazy. You have a damned stalker after you, and you have actually gone mad. Even if I manage to survive from that stalker, there is no assurance that Aera would not be killing me later on.

I am sure she will be tying me up for real if I step out of this house! Ugh! Why is this so tempting!? Just count the sheeps and go to sleep, Ryujin! That's the only thing you can do now. You're strong; you can do this."

All of a sudden, a noise reached into her ear. It was of someone releasing a chuckle, and Ryujin's eyes widened at that. Instantly, she sat up on the bed and looked around.

As her heart began to beat rapidly within her c.h.e.s.t, negative thoughts began to pile up inside her mind, and Ryujin began to contemplate on whether or not this house as haunted when she remained incapable of spotting someone.

"Don't be such a scaredy cat. Aera mentioned on how tight the security here is. You will be just fine," Ryujin mumbled to herself.
