20th Ghosting: Chasing Mystery

ASHEY LOOKED at her mother from leaning against the kitchen door jamb. She's cooking that morning.
"By the way, you can stay here, as long as you want. I forgot to tell you," she said in the absence of something sensible to say to her mother.
She turned to her with a smile.
"Thank you, you're awake. Good morning. Coffee?"
"I can get it myself." I did live alone, Ashey said to herself.
When her mother did not answer, ahe continued washing and brushing her teeth.
She woke up early because she slept early last night. The stories her mother told to her companions were already told to her by Randall last night. Whatever the reason behind its adoption of her and its non -redemption of him in the orphanage, she just let it be. She doesn't care anymore. She has been indifferent for a long time. The past in the past, anyway.
"Why do you seem to be hurting? The indifferent doesn't get hurt, 'remember?" She was just blown away by the wind when she finished brushing. Sometimes really, our mind is worse than our hearts.
"I hope you can forgive me ..."
Excuse me? Again, did she chose to give birth to herself in the world?
"I did talk to Azraelle about your second life ... I'm happy that you were given the chance to do things you didn't do in your first life. At first, I'll admit I was scared when I found out, because your grandmother used to be a doctor in the village who was also one of those who was given a chance to live like Azraelle.She became greedy even in her ability and she doesn't want to die again where she deserves.I just don't want you to be like her."
"The thing you're afraid of won't happen to me. People intend to be like that mostly because they're greed in money and power. I have power too, alright. But I have money. I don't need money anymore. Yes, this ability would be big money here in the world. Like your mother did. Okay, but don't ever think that history can really repeat itself. Because as far as I know from Azraelle, your mother never left you in pain and comfort." Okay, she sounds bitter there and even beat the one who ate a kilo of an ampalaya, but isn't she and she has the right to be bitter? She left her.
She didn’t become a mother to her then.So, whre she'd get the courage to preach to her and tell her those things? hah! Pathetic old woman. With a sigh, Ashey just continued to enter the bathroom. More better to take a bath than talking to her so called mother. Besides, the gang will go to the funeral of her students.
"You are not eaten by greed for power and money, but you are eaten by bitterness. How are you, Ashey?" She immediately wiped away the chastisement of her own thoughts on her.
"I'm sorry and life hasn't been easy for Ashey, like I've told you"
"I understand, Azraelle."
"Please don't leave her... again. She needs you before she can go upstairs again."
"Life is so annoying. When I'm with my daughter, then I learned that she's dead. When I'm not watching over her house, then something bad happened to her."
"It's not your fault. You don't have to blame yourself. That's what happened to Ashey is for a reason. It's destined to happen even if you were still there that night and saved her. Believe me."
"Is Ashey awake yet?"
"Wow you're early, you're afraid of being left behind?"
"It's too early too, for you to get angry with me, Azraelle. I'm still sleepy." The young man Xian even rolled his eyes and looked drowsy.
"Go to sleep. I'll wake you up when we leave." Xian suddenly opened his narrowed eyes.
"No! I'm already awake! Azraelle, look, I'm not sleepy anymore. Besides, I don't trust you, 'Men. You don't want me to beat you." Azraelle laughed when the special young man stared at her.
"Have some coffee. So maybe you can get nervous about what you're saying."
"WHY IS SHE? Is she a cop?"
"Fatima, you don't understand me ..."
"No, Adan! You're just going to throw everything at Teacher Ashey! Are you stupid ?!" Fatima is annoyed with her friend Tricia's boyfriend.
He insists that they need Teacher Ashey’s help. Now that the teacher has appeared on Arielle's funeral, Adan wants them to talk to her and Adan has a hunch that the three of them will die next.
She doesn't believe in that. How can she believe it? Even if she thought that what Adan was saying was nonsense! We're on a year 2021, gosh!
"I don't think it's better to tell the police, Fatty. If Adan's suspicion is correct," Tricia whispered, careful that someone might hears what they are talking about.
"That's it. He just suspected that. You two are not sure. What if it's just a coincidence?" Because really, there's such a word 'coincidence', damn it!
"No. I have a strong feeling, it all had something to do with that night ..." Adan caressed Tricia's shoulder.
Tricia became his girlfriend just this month after the length of his courtship here that they started when they started elementary school so he can't allow anything bad to happen to his beloved.
"Or maybe you're just crazy? Oh, it's up to you! Hmp!" And Fatima marched away and did not pay attention to Tricia and Adan's conclusion.
WHEN Azraelle looked at Ashey, she immediately got what it meant-- they had to talk to the group of Adam, Tricia and Fatima because the angel had clearly heard that they were hiding something and had a hint as to the reason for Arielle's death and Hera.
It also looks like his student Adam is going to talk to her and when he looks back he is also looking at her.
"Bring it on!" Ashey heard Xian whisper before they approach her students, Adan and Tricia. He really loves this adventure.
"Oh, when you really run later, I will laugh at you," Of course Azraelle tease the ability of Xian, from time to time.
