Ghost Dusk
Chapter 26 - Managing Molly's Problems

...༻◈༺...

Julie slowly calmed down. Especially when Molly says June's name. The girl did not go and listened to Molly talk.

"So what do you want?" ask Julie while sitting on the couch.

"I've asked June for help several times to tell you about me" Molly replied. "But it seems like he never told me anything" he added.

"What do you want to ask me for help?" ask Julie.

"So you're willing to help me?" molly's eyes twinkled with pleasure.

"I want to hear it first. I'll just decide."

"Yes already." Molly nodded. He immediately informs Julie of his wishes. The ghost wants Julie to meet her father who lives alone.

Molly said her father was the biggest obstacle to her return to the afterlife. Because the man named Anthony is still not able to let Molly go for the last few years. The longer Molly becomes a ghost, the more likely she is to become an evil spirit.

"I'm going to see your father. Tell me where he lives?" julie.

"I'll take you there!" sahut Molly enthusiastic. He and Julie quickly move out of the apartment. Now the two are walking down the sidewalk. Accompanied by June who is still in the form of orange smoke.

"What a pity, June. He's not the only one who was the victim of an accident at dusk" Molly chirped as she watched June wander near Julie.

"You mean?" Julie curious.

"All humans who die at dusk will suffer the same fate as June. I don't know for sure. But that's how it is twilight. I also heard that the afterlife can only open at dusk" explained Molly.

"You seem to know a lot about ghosts and the afterlife. Will June be able to turn into an evil spirit one day?"

"He just became a ghost. I don't think he's going to be an evil spirit in a short time. And one more thing, I know a lot of this stuff from an old ghost named Elliot. He also made me know how I died first."

"really? Then does she also know how June died?" Julie's pupils were enlarged.

"June's? He died in an accident, didn't he?"

"Yes. I-i know. My point here is how and what the reason that made June crash. I also want to know where it is!"

"Maybe Elliot could have helped. He had many friends who lived in several places. Elliot usually asked his friends. If one of them was a witness to June's accident, then maybe you can figure it out." Molly explained at length.

"You're so excited that you forget I'm a ghost" Molly said.

"I'm sorry... I'm just glad to hear that there's a figure who can answer my problem right now" Julie said. "You can take me to meet Elliot, right?" tanyanya expectantly.

"of course. But I want you to solve my problems first," responded Molly.

Julie nodded. His eyeballs immediately glanced towards June. "June, you should have told me about Molly sooner," he said. Then continue walking down the street.

...***...

After taking a few minutes on the way, Julie, Molly, and June finally arrive at Anthony's house. His house looks so quiet.

Julie pressed the doorbell. Shortly after, the door opened. Anthony's figure appeared with a flat expression.

"My last name is William" whispered Molly. Just before Julie spoke.

"Who are you?" anthony asked with a dislike look.

"Hello, Mr. William. Meet me Julie. Molly's best friend at school. Sorry just got here now, but--"

"You're Molly's friend?!" cut Anthony. His eyes glared sharply. He seems angry at Julie.

"L-yes, I'm Molly's friend." Julie was shocked at the reaction Anthony showed.

"I don't think Molly ever had any friends!" Anthony is closing in on Julie. In a state of eyes that are still blocked. "The only person who cares about Molly in this world is me!" emphatically.

"Sorry, Julie. But honestly, until now I also wondered why my father was being rude to everyone. Especially when they're talking about me" Molly said. He stared in wonder at the father who certainly could not see his existence.

"Go!" expel Anthony. He walked into the house slamming the door. The wind that was released by the door when it closed, instantly hit Julie's face.

"That's why I asked for your help. It is very difficult to find a human who has the ability like you in this city. Sorry for bothering you" said Molly.

"You're willing to help me, so I'll have to help you back, too. I'm sure I can get your dad to talk" Julie said.

Different ways Julie does it. Including returning to Anthony's house while bringing gifts. But the various ways he did, Anthony still refused to talk to him. The middle-aged man seemed to hate the world so much.

"Hello, Mr. William. Can we bi-" Julie hasn't finished talking, Anthony has already closed the door. It was Julie's third arrival in a day.
