Chapter 8

From here I heard the car re-run outside. I sighed, I think the Grim Reaper had already left.

There I lay down on the queen size bed with the book I was still holding in my left hand.

This was so tiring day. I am so thankful that that evil spirit has also left my sight. That one is annoying, he was constantly harassing me.

Ever since the plane landed in Plamour Airport, he has done nothing but reminds me that I am no longer a normal human, and we have a mission to do.

At first, the little girl gladly used it. She dances and dances with all her heart. A week passed the little girl didn't notice that she slowly forget how to take the glass shoes out.

I close my eyes and sighed again.

"Seems like your irritated with my presence babe?" I almost jumped at what I heard when I opened my eyes and a man with a black hat appeared on me. He sits in front of the queen size bed of the room where I am lying by now.

Okay, Just calm down Sean! Calm down.

"You! Can you not use your dark powers on me every time you pretend to be Albus Wesley!" I shouted. Extremely disgusted by the presence of the Grim Reaper who is here again.

When I said that, his forehead quickly furrowed.

"Dark Powers? What the hell." He said emphatically. He obviously couldn't believe what I just said.

"Don't you know the annoying word? I can now introduce you." I sarcastically uttered. "I get irritated every time you say something with your ability. I've not used it. At least I'm still human and—" I didn't finish my word when he spoke immediately.

"Rule no 3." I sighed with that.

That's it, he won.

Annoyed by the grim reaper in front of me, I threw a lotion at him from the side table. There is nothing in the rules that is forbidden to do that. And even if I do that, he will not be touched because it will just penetrate him.

"What was that?" Unlike when the Grim Reaper is in Albus body that he always smiled and smirked. He's an actual face now is blank.

Nothing, no emotion at all.

"I hate you!" I glared at him. He looked at me amazed as if I had done something ridiculous in front of him. Yes, it was stupid to throw that at him even though I knew he would not be hit then.

I hate him. 

Doesn't he see, I'm just adjusting myself from everything but here he is, putting more pressure on me?

I took another deep breath. I'm the person that when I'm annoyed I don't hold back that's because I only get annoyed once.

"I will kill you now!" I threatened while looking at him badly. He would have spoken when I rushed him. I hit him and immediately throw punched at him. That's when his hat was removed, and I was surprised when my fist hit his face.

I was stunned and my eyes widened.

"Oh my gosh!"

"Fuck!" There was a hint of anger in his voice. When I looked at him, his whole body was wrapped in black aura again. There I was stunned. Only now did I fully see his face not wearing his hat.

The parting of her dark black hair suits him. He is also had a white complexion and his lips are very red. His eyebrows are just so beautifully drawn. So, are his puffy eyes. It is so deep like it can hypnotize. As if by the time you stare at him, you will go insane. This is probably the so-called masterpiece of heaven.

I sighed for the fifth time.

Why the heck this Grim reaper became this gorgeous in my eyes right now? Damn it!

I swallowed. Especially when I hear my sudden heartbeat speed up.

This is not good.

I was about to get up from running after him when he suddenly smiled. I was just surprised when he squeezed my waist. He lay down on the bed and now I am below him.

At that point, I felt very nervous.

"Hey! W-what?" He just smiled more because of that. I cried and struggled. "Let me go! Please! I'm sorry okay, I won't do it again I swear!" But instead of letting me go, he just pulled me closer to him. I almost chased my breath when his lips touched my ear.

"Better do something with your beating heart babe, remember the rules. Dating is forbidden." there was when my eyes widened again.

Oh my gosh! What the hell is he talking about?

I was about to scold him. When he swapped our position. Now I was on top of him.

With that, I swallowed again.

However, I bravely met his loving eyes. We were stunned for a moment and just stared at each other until he suddenly smiled. There I felt like I had a cardiac arrest. That was the first time he smiled at me genuinely. All this time he always had no expression to express every time he was out of Albus' body.

"Sleep tight Sean, Sweet dreams" then he kissed my forehead. He softly caressed my cheeks and there, he suddenly disappeared.

It was only then that I noticed that I had been holding my breath for a while.

I closed my eyes and touched my chest.

"This is a problem." I silently whispered.

But not until the day that the little girl wanted to take the glass shoes off, but she doesn't know-how. With that, the little girl dance for the rest of her life.

The End!

The good message of the children's story, entitled, A Dancing Glass Shoes is not to pick things up everywhere. But in my opinion, what it wants to convey is that sometimes dreaming of what you know is impossible is also tiring. Not all our dreams can be achieved, or we have enough money to reach them. And if we can reach it, not for the rest of your life you will want to be bound by the dream you once asked for.

Just like my dream of having a happy and complete family. The fact that I did reach that through Hailey's body can be seen. But without pleasure, joy and gladness. Maybe because I know this dream of mine has long been fulfilled.

We all have dreams but some dreams are better to just keep a dream.
