Chapter 7: Chapter 7

"You're really nice, Quinn." I brag to myself while looking in the mirror, wearing my vintage red dress. I even turned around in front of the mirror, because it was my first day there–second day by the way. I must look good.

I stopped cute in the mirror when suddenly there was a knock.

"Quinn, your boss is here." I thought for a moment about what mom said, why would my boss come here? He didn't know our house.

I hurried out to see what mama was saying. I dropped my jaw while looking at Grim reaper, what is he doin–I mean, how does my mom see him?

"You have a job now in Baguio, I said we just got there." I even swallowed and faced mom.

"Can you see him?" Her forehead furrowed at my question.

"Most likely, can I talk to him if I can't? Your boss is handsome." Mom whispered the last thing. How did that happen? Is her third eye also open and can she see it?

"Wait, I'll get you something to drink first." Mom quickly went to the kitchen, I immediately approached Grim reaper.

"You're Grim–"

"Keir is my name, when people see me." At the same time he smiled again and his dimple reappeared.

"Okay, whatever your name is...wait, can you show up to people?" He nodded at my question. What the! What's going on? It looks like I'm going crazy.

"We can do it, but only on things that are important." Now I nodded at what he said. Really different. Meaning, maybe people I've met before are different like them?

"I told you, come on?" It pulled me quickly but I pulled away.

"Wait, those things of mine are in my room and I haven't let you know yet." I pulled my hand away and ran to the kitchen, where mom was putting stuffing on the bread.

"Mom, we're leaving." I kissed her cheek again and went to the bedroom, to get my things. He was even shaken because of the size of the luggage I was carrying, of course, maybe my stay there was too long I needed clothes.

"Be careful!" Mom shouted before we could finally get into his car. He's also cool, it's good that he has a nice car. It is also black in color and super shiny.

"I'll only be taken to that hotel, not to the next life, will I?" I jokingly asked him as I adjusted the seatbelt.

"Do you really prefer to be with me at the hotel?" This is his teasing smile again. My whole life was a lie, the Grim reapers are very naughty and not scary.

"As if, you should be thankful and I helped you."

He should just be thankful for what I did to be with him, even without certainty. Am I aware of those I will encounter? It's a good thing I'm not scared.

I looked at the Grim reaper whose name was Keir or whatever. He almost burst out picking at his laugh, frowning at me as I watched him.

"What's funny?" He swallowed first and faced me, he looked me in the face down to my red dress, I arranged a seat to show him how beautiful I was.

"Am I beautiful?" Even the Grim reaper can't deny the charm I possess. I'm not Quinn for nothing.

"No, you're ugly."

It was as if heaven and earth fell on me with its insulting laughter. My teeth chattered and my fists clenched. I screamed internally, I really wanted to punch him because of what he said. Only now have I received such a word from a man who is not alive, lest his taste be lost.

"When you're there, you'll still see the old building, when it's three o'clock, it will automatically change shape just before your eyes. Someone will take care of you there."

I just let him speak. I was still disgusted with what he told me, how was he able to say that I was ugly? He's handsome with the same bad temper.

"Get out, here we are." Annoyed, I went out, slammed the door down and even watched it shake, as if I was still glad that he had bored me.

Aside from the fact that he brought me here, I didn't know he would leave me either, but the speed with which we got here. Probably someone went through it so quickly.

As he commanded I went inside, an old building opened up to me. I looked around again, only now I realized that this place is also beautiful even though people have forgotten and abandoned it.

Honestly it wasn't scary, probably if my third eye hadn't opened, I would have thought it was just an old hotel in Baguio that was damaged and abandoned.

I backed away when the ground suddenly shook, my jaw immediately dropped as I watched the beautiful change around. The recently cracked and old -fashioned wall was changing, I was surrounded by a very bright, very beautiful and large hotel.

It even surpassed a five star hotel because of its cleanliness and nice workmanship, even the chandeliers are really different. Everything you see here and it's like you're in another country.

I continued to marvel around and didn't notice the other people–souls walking around, they were just a few but they looked like newcomers as well.

"How are you?" I immediately turned to the woman who spoke, this voice familiar.

"H-hello." I greeted them and bowed.

"Let's go up." Polite command of a man. They were probably the two talking when I fell. They are old, maybe 60 years old but I don't know how long they have been here.

They walked ahead of me and I saw their beautiful uniform, it was blue black and the fabric was also beautiful. Why are ghosts so rich?

"Just come in, sir Florence has been waiting for you for a while." They wandered my way into a room, it was probably the owner's office.

"Thank you." I bowed again and smiled, they did the same and left at once. I looked around again, it was really nice.

I first took a deep breath before opening the door. I expected this office to be really nice. I couldn't help, but to be really amazed at what I saw.

It is wide and full of paintings, various paintings are surrounding, there are also gold figurines around. It was so quiet that I heard my footsteps approaching his table, his chair was turned upside down but I knew he was sitting there because of a little movement.

"Excuse me. Hello." Smiling and full of respect I call him that. I was still pure confident while facing it, his chair gradually rotated at the same time the gradual loss of a smile on my lips.

"Grim reaper? All right! You left me alone in here just so you could have a moment?" I keep my promise here. It's a different kind. I was even sent here, he was the owner of the hotel. He is now wearing a blue polo.

"Excuse me? I'm not a Grim reaper." Frowning forehead and its rude answer. He stood up to face me.

"You! You know you're annoying!" I'm stuck here while I'm so stubborn and want to punch him, I don't care if he's still the owner.

"You know what? If I only knew that your tongue was sticking like that I wouldn't let you come back here!" I felt the angriness of how he answered. His eyebrows met and he looked at me sharply.

"Wait, haven't you come after me yet? I hope you haven't forced me to come here again."

Am I still to blame for the two of us? Who else pretended to be someone just to pick me up. He's probably a grazy ghost.

"Me? Why would I fetch you? Another one, I won't beg for someone like you." He even looked at me with sarcasm, which you thought I was too ugly for him to dislike. The evil habit of this man.

"Keir–""

"Florence is my name, I'm not Keir!" I was still close to cry, when I opened my eyes I saw its angry face.

I was even swallowed up by the nervousness, the different attitude and face he was showing me now. It seems like a while ago he was charming and cute, now he seems to be a rude type, that when you talk to him you just want to look at him.

"I don't know who came after you, my name is Florence and not Keir. May I remind you ms. Abellana, I am the owner of this hotel and I am your boss. So you have no right to raise your voice, while talking to me! "

I was looking at him. I would have liked to raise my voice too. But I can clearly see the annoyance on his face, I don't want to be early in the next life, I'm still here at his hotel.

But how did that happen? The hotel owner and the Grim reaper are alike?

They have the same face shape, even the gray eyes. But how did their behavior different? Are they twins? Or maybe there is another explanation? I don't know, my brain just hurts more.
