Yeri's P.O.V

It's already 11:30 nang lumabas ako sa bahay at pumunta sa park. I need to think. Do I need to wait for him? Nagdadalawang isip ako. It's been 1 year already. It is.

Pagdating ko sa park, umupo ako sa may bench. Pag-upo ko pa lamang, nabigla ako ng may nagmessage. Since nakafree data ako, makakareceive ako ng messages sa messenger. Tinignan ko nalang. At nanlaki ang mga mata ko ng si Jungkook pala yung nagmessage.

jeon jungkook: yeri.

jeon jungkook: you're the one who calls me ghost right?

jeon jungkook: i love you. and i always will.

Three straight messages. Napaiyak ako sa sinabi niya.

 i love you. and i always will.  

Umiyak ako habang nagrereply. It's been 1 year since hindi siya bumalik, yet he still loves me? 

kim yerim: jungkook..

kim yerim: JUNGKOOK! BUMALIK KA NA!

kim yerim: PLEASE.. MISS NA MISS NA KITA.

kim yerim: HALOS ONE YEAR NA AKONG NAGHIHINTAY SA'YO JUNGKOOK.

kim yerim: bumalik ka naman.. para makita kita ulit..

kim yerim: even though you're a ghost, i can see you right?

Sineen niya ako and i can see him typing. I was waiting his reply. And finally, he replied me back. 

jeon jungkook: hehehe

jeon jungkook: hindi mo lang ako nakikita, you can also feel my heart beating beside you.

My heart was beating fast. I feel the cold breeze sa likod ko. Ang lakas ng hangin kahit walang bagyo. Nabigla naman ako ng nagreply siya. 

I cannot believe it.

jeon jungkook: i'm here beside you.  

Nabigla naman ako nang may yumakap sa'kin at napansin kong umiiyak siya. I can feel this ghost.

I can see him.

I can feel his heart beating. 

I can hear his breath.

I can feel his tears falling.

It's Jungkook. He came back.

"Yeri.. Diba sabi ko sa'yo, I will be here by your side always."

"I'm a ghost remember?"

Umiyak ako habang nakangiti. I'm so happy. 

I am really happy. 

"Ghost.. I cannot believe I can love you like this. I love you Jungkook." I said and he kissed me.

"I love you too, Yeri."

"Mom, is dad always there by our side?" tanong ni Yna sa'kin. 

I just smiled at her. She was my daughter. Our daughter.

"Yes Yna. Remember he was a ghost? So don't be afraid of ghosts okay?"

She nodded and hugged me.

"I really miss dad. I hope I can hold his hand." she said, still hugging me.

Muntik na akong umiyak. It's been 4 years since Jungkook passed away. May sakit siya sa puso. Nagkastroke siya. I still remember the time when he first messaged me. Every night, binabasa ko pa rin lahat ng messages namin. I keep on going to the park na madalas naming puntahan ni Yna noong baby pa siya. But now, it's not the same. He's not here already.

Umiyak na talaga ako. I cannot imagine us without him. Without Jungkook.

I'm a Ghost, remember? I'm always there beside you. Forever and Always Yeri.

Nabigla ako ng nakarinig ako ng boses at tinignan ko ang nasa pintuan ng sala namin.

I saw him. Smiling. 

Yes, I believe in Ghosts. I saw him. I feel him. I know that his heart is beating for me. I feel his warmth. I feel him beside me. 

Jungkook.. I love you. Forever and always

I smiled at him. And he vanished while smiling warmly.

Still, I cannot believe I believe in ghosts. Because in the beginning, I never thought I loved a person even death do us part.

Even though when I was a child, I was really scared of ghosts.
