The Jerk is a Ghost

35

Even though my feet were still sore I was still happy to stand up and pull on it.

"Waaah? pancake? In Bali?! Bangsi?! Coffee!"

I said enthusiastically while happily enjoying the menu next to me. The beautiful scenery around me added to my excitement.

"Didn't I tell you, you'll like it" he said showing his trademark smile to me.

Hey ... that's you again Fireel Simon. Those kind of smiles of yours again !.

“I might melt Marian Irish.

Yes, I know you are handsome to me. I'm embarrassed, don't make it public pls "he said freshly.

"Tsk tsk. Whatever" I replied annoyed.

Before I was completely bored, our food arrived and I happily left it.

"Bon Appetit" he said smiling.

As we ate we talked about how Fire found this diner.

He said he found out about this place while they were on a mission nearby and their colleagues brought him here so after that it was one of his favorite places to go and eat.

After we ate Fire took me to a residential area surrounded by stunning scenery. The place is simple and straightforward so it's comfortable to look at.

"We are here" he said cheerfully and showed the place.

I looked around and noticed that many were looking at us. Maybe they were surprised that Fire was with someone so nice, right? Fire was still holding my hands when he took me to the place where people were talking. They immediately noticed us and gave us a nice smile and greeting.

Fire introduced me to them and in the middle of our conversation there came a man who was 45yrs old ata.

"Father!" Fire shouted. What Fire called stopped in front of us and gave us a sweet smile.

"Fireel. Long time no see" it replied.

"When did you get back, Father? By the way, I want you to meet Marian Irish. Marian Irish, meet Father Kiko" he said while looking at me.

Ive noticed Father Kiko's reaction after Fire introduced me to him. He looked like he knew something in me. Are you married, Father? o Parites?

"Nice to meet you sister !! Finally, I also saw you in person. Not just a picture ......."

"Father! How long have you been here? Have you eaten yet? Let's go there" he said and pushed Father Kiko while I was still close.

As we were talking about Fire’s concerns in this area Father Kiko suddenly spoke up.

"So, when are you two getting married?" Father asked directly. My eyes widened in shock and Fire coughed in shock.

Padre just laughed at our reaction.

"Father! Blow your horn! You suddenly turn the topic!"

Hirit ni Fire ng kumalma na sa narinig.

He couldn't help but laugh when he spoke again.

"You know Fireel, the fact that he's with you here, I thought the next one was a wedding. Your weakness, brother! I'll teach you how to get strong. Do you want to? Pity you, let me help you?" It said to Fire and turned its gaze to me.

"Daughter, forgive me for this chicken, because it's not a seasoning chicken, and it's still a bit weak. But I'll ask you, What is your state now?" Question it.

Jusko Parites Father. What shall I answer? Its complicated? "Haha I'm sorry sister. I'm just really like this. You'll get used to it too. But you probably love this shiver, don't you?" Its a laughable question.

I gave him a little smile then i nod my head.

Will I still be ashamed to let others know that I love Fire.? Would I go somewhere with him if not right?

I’m actually excited for Father Kiko. It's cool to talk, I thought at first he was like the Priests at our school before. Not all priests are rude.

I saw Fire grinning showing his dimples as always. The madman is trembling.

"Nax. My chicken is really young. He still has long hair. But since you're with him now, does that mean you're going to join his missions in different places?

You know, sister, that's part of what we talked about before, he wants to serve God for the rest of his life? Are you willing to join him and go to mission? As a couple? ”She asked.

I dont need to find answers, because for me, as long as Im with Fire, ill go anywhere with him.

"Please don't be offended by my question. I'm really like this, there's gossip." laughing it says something that made the three of us laugh.

Before I answer Father Kiko, Fire butted in.

"You don't need to answer Marian Irish. Father won't be angry even if you don't answer."

"Your KJ is Fireel. We're the ones talking here. Tsk tsk." Father Kiko's office.

As I smiled at their conversation I thought there was nothing wrong with answering Father's question, so I spoke up.

"Ok lang Fire. Actually Father, to answer your question. Yes, i am willing, as long as I'm with him" i said smiling to him. I also saw Fire's smirk that made him tremble again.

From Padre's wide smile earlier it narrowed and looked at Fire and looked at me.

I was confused on his reaction. Is it sad?

"Father, is my answer wrong?" I ask here with concern.

He smiled sweetly again and answered me.

"You know sister, there is no right or wrong answer to my question before. What is in your heart, and you think that's what makes you happy is no problem." “But I just want to remind you that you always just do something not for other people, but for yourself.

When Fireel is not with you on the mission, will you be happy, sister?

All I can advise is that you come with Fireel when you know the answer to my question. "She answered with a smile.

I was stunned on what he said. He has a point. Am I really happy?

"She's lovebirds, I'll just go to the young people in the band there. See you both later. If you want to get married right away, call me right away, right?" Its a joke before we leave the table.
