"Wow, I feel so refreshed now. Thanks for the help, Ashley," Bryan said as he sat on his bed shirtless. He was only wearing his pants.
"Now wear your shirt," Ashley said as she helped Bryan to wear his shirt.
"I'll get your breakfast and then you need your medicine."
Bryan smiled and stared at Ashley, who at first didn't seem to mind but after some time she asked, "What?"
"Aren't you tired?" Bryan asked quietly. "You have been constantly taking care of me, and not even once I have seen you taking a rest."
Ashley smiled gently, "because I don't rest in front of you."
"The dark circles under your eyes say something else."
Ashley sighed, "They are nothing, it's just I have a lot of work nowadays so..."
"And on top of that, you have me, a burden."
Ashley sat beside Bryan. "You are a precious burden. No one takes care of a burden as I do. If you were really trouble, I wouldn't have been here with you."
"I am glad you a

Constant murmurs were invading his ears, disturbing his peaceful sleep.When Bryan came to his senses, he was lying on the bed. His head was in pain and so was his shoulder. With pain, he tried to open his eyes and saw Ashley's blurry figure. It seemed like she was talking to someone, but Bryan couldn't see anyone else in the room."Hmm..." a painful groan escaped his mouth, which made Ashley turn to him instantly."Bryan! Are you okay? How do you feel?""Terrible." Bryan replied in a rough voice, "Can I have some water?""Sure," Ashley quickly poured water for Bryan, which he drank in one go, " Are you mad Bryan? What were you thinking? When did I say rest? Then why weren't you resting?"Do you have any idea how dangerous it would be if something happened to you? Why do you have to do something opposite of what I tell you to do?" Ashley finally exploded. She was shaking and her eyes were red as well.Bryan stared at Ashley with a bla

"A necro...what?""A necromancer...basically you are the opposite of me.""How?"I exorcise spirits that send them to the afterlife, netherworld, a necromancer, on the other hand, summons spirits and souls, to communicate with them.""Wow, that's cool."Ashley shook her head. "Cool? let me remind you that you cannot use your abilities yet and you would be killed by now if I wasn't there besides do you think it's easy to be a necromancer?""What abilities do I have other than summoning a ghost?"Ashley drank some water before replying, "The stronger a necromancer is, the stronger is his ability. He can control the spirits and use them as weapons and the strongest necromancer can bring back someone from the dead.""Really?""Don't let that get to your head. Only the strongest of the strongest necromancers can do that...you, on the other hand, don't even remember your name."Bryan leaned on the bed, "Well, that sucks

Ashley sighed as well, feeling as happy as Bryan. "Now let's go home.""Home? you say.""Yes, home. Our home."The two sat in Ashley's car, with Ashley in the driver's seat and Bryan in the passenger seat."So where is your home?""It's situated on the outskirts of the city.""That must be far.""It is far.

Bryan was speechless for a while. "It seems that being an exorcist is a dangerous job."Ashley smiled slightly, but that smile was not a happy one. "Yes it is Bryan, it's an extremely tough job.""What exactly happened that day?""I don't know. I was too small. All I know is that it just took one day for me to become an orphan"Bryan finally shut his mouth and controlled himself from asking any more questions, although he had plenty."You know what?" Ashley said suddenly."What?""We need to go shopping. We need to buy you some clothes and shoes and your own mobile phone."Bryan furrowed his eyebrows. "How come I don't have the basic necessities of life? Was I living on the streets before?""No," Ashley shook her head, "Actually, those people had burned your house, so all of your things were burned as well.""Oooh, I see, then we really need to go shopping. Then my bank cards and phones and legal documents must ha

Bryan woke up, covered with sweat and erratic breathing.His hand subconsciously reached his chest, and he could feel his fast heartbeat.Bryan took a few deep breaths before wiping the sweat off his forehead with his hand. He drank a whole glass of water before heading out of his room.All of that was a dream? Or maybe a part of his memory.And if that's true then it means that he had a brother? But Ashley said that there was no family from Bryan's side.It was late in the afternoon and he felt hungry and uncomfortable.Just as he was about to get out of his room, he heard the doorbell ring, and as soon as he stepped out of his room, he came face to face with Ashley as well, who had just opened the door of his room as well."It must be the food I'll go get," Ashley said, and quickly ran downstairs.Even if Bryan was still in a state of confusion, he still didn't miss the way Ashley looked, sweaty forehead and hea

Today Bryan and Ashley were going shopping.It was Bryan's first day out after getting discharged from the hospital and after losing his memory, so everything was sort of new for him."I think I need to learn to drive again.""Of course, you have to."Bryan sighed and leaned back in the chair. “When can I use my hand freely?""The doctors had said that you have to come for a check-up later and then he will remove your bandages...but...""But?"Ashley sighed. "Your hand will become weak.""I think it has already become weak." Bryan said while moving his hand here and there, "But still usable, I guess."Ashley stole a glance at him before focusing on the drive again."Hey, is that a graveyard?" Bryan asked as he was looking out the window."Yes, it is now. Stop looking in that direction."Bryan didn't question Ashley. He may have lost his memory, but he still knew very well that graveyards are no

"THROW IT OUT!! HURRY UP." Ashley yelled.Bryan didn't question anything because this unknown feeling of terror and horror urged him to just get rid of this thing."It's not open," Bryan said as he tried to open the window.Ashley wanted to say something, but before she could say anything, the car's steering wheel also got out of control."Shoot," Ashley said and tried to break the window and when that didn't work she took the box from Bryan's hand and enclosed it between her hands with her eyes turning blue, eventually, the car stopped, and Bryan opened the window to throw the box outside.But before he could do anything, the box itself burst out of Ashley's hand and flew out of the car through the windshield, breaking it in the process.But the first thing Bryan was worried about was Ashley's hands because they were bleeding."We are too late," Ashley said.Bryan took Ashley's hand in his own. “What do you mean?"

"Our shopping went to waste," Ashley said"So did your money," Bryan added."Don't remind me."Now the two of them were sitting in a cab. Thinking about the stressful event which happened just now."What was that thing, anyway?""It was a poltergeist.""Okay, so it is like...what?...ghost?""They aren't ghosts, ghosts are the spirits of dead people. That thing was never alive. To begin with, you can say it was a free spirit who likes to harm humans.""I see. Looks like I really need to learn to control my powers as well."“Yes, the faster the better...And Bryan next time when you encounter something like these then make sure to check their shadows, ghost, demons and poltergeist don't have shadows"Bryan leaned back on the seat.
