𝗪𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗨𝗣 𝗜𝗡 𝗛𝗘𝗥 𝗣𝗔𝗦𝗧 𝗖𝗢𝗧𝗧𝗔𝗚𝗘 gave Keres a heartfelt emotion. All the early days she spent by herself in this former house of hers caused her to feel a solemn sense of happiness.


"Good morning, eveyone!" her bright mood made her greet all the living creatures around the abode, ranging from her cat, flowers, mosses, and even microorganisms.


The guest room's door was half open, which was where Techno stayed, so she decided to acknowledge him as well.


"Good morning, Tech- OH!" Keres' smile turned into a jaw drop, realizing he was standing with no shirt on, fresh from the shower.


The woman flew away in a flash.


"Good morning, huh?" he teased her when he got out of the room, now wearing a white dress shirt and gray pants. "I bet it is."


"Sorry! You left the door open, okay?!" she reasoned, but staring at him longer made her remember his exposed chest and broad, muscular shoulders...


"Sure. Good morning to you, too." he winked, pouring himself a cup of tea yet the ghost hid her face on the table.


Harper was confused as to why the two had some sort of tension, nevertheless ate the raw salmon the man fed her.


"Have you ever thought about wanting to become a human again?"


"Always." she murmured. "I miss being one. Being able to move objects, eat, drink... not walk, though. Flying is cool."


"What's the first thing you'd do if you turn back into one?"


"Hmm... there's a lot. Maybe eat?" she shrugged. Techno gradually took a bite of his cookie to show off. "Fuck you."


The pig chortled. "Would you rather be a human again, or still be a ghost?"


"Human. So that I could slap you in the face." she shook her head at him sarcastically. "If I was given the chance to transform back into a being, what should be the first thing we'd do together?"


Techno paused, glancing at her up and down silently, causing her to scold him. "What? I didn't say anything."


The girl gave him a skeptical look as he resumed to innocently chew on his cookie. Great. Now the image of Techno's body reoccurred in her brain.


"I'd give Harper the biggest hug if I could turn into my living self again." she peered at the cat with a pout. "Why are you asking me these questions?"


"I'm just genuinely curious."


"Do you like me?"


"Why? Do I need an excuse to ask you questions as I please?"


"Techno, do you like me?" she interrogated once more. The man inhaled a deep breath, and this time, he didn't let go his eyes off of hers.


"What would you do if I do?"


Keres stood from the table and laughed without answering. She departed from the kitchen and whizzed to the front yard to grasp some time to herself, overwhelmed with what happened all in one morning.


For five years, we were the closest friends. But do you really want to know why I actually care? I loved you. For the longest time. That was what Techno told her.
