Tyler fell to the ground after the entire process was finished. His eyes half-closed as he stared at the distance dully. When the exorcist was doing his thing, he had felt as if something was being sucked away from his body. As the exorcist dragged away from the energy, he felt a dull ache in his eyes where the Yin-Yang eyes were situated, and after that, he didn't remember what happened anymore.
Only when his entire body fell on the floor with a thud that he regained his consciousness and glanced around. The dorm was empty as it had never been before. His eyes were stuck at the place where he saw his senior the last time before Tyler closed his eyes.
The ghost was still here. He could feel the residue of coldness in the air. It was clear that his lover was furious. Right now, Tyler knew that no matter what he did, he wouldn't be able to coax that person, but he still had to try.
He placed his hand on the ground and pushed his body up with difficulty. Suddenly, he felt a wisp of cold air surrounding him.
Was that ghost trying to help him up?
A bitter smile formed on his lips. "You don't have to help me. I'm fine." It seemed as if Tyler was talking to no one in particular, but he knew that the ghost was still here and that person had likely heard his words. It was because just after that, not only did the cold recede but also increased ten-folds.
When he still had his Yin-Yang eyes, even though the touch of his senior's hands had felt cold against his skin, Tyler had never felt that the aura of the ghost was freezing. But right now, when the magic had ended, he realized that the presence of the ghost made it seem like the season had suddenly changed into winter.
But if that was what it took to make him feel the presence of his lover, he was ready to live in winter all his life. After thinking of this, Tyler finally gathered him and took a deep breath.
He already knew this would happen, but when such a situation occurred in reality, Tyler couldn't help but feel a trace of sadness engulfing his heart. His throat choked up at the thought of how his senior was going to suffer along with him as well.
But what else could he do?! He couldn't just ruin all the storylines just because of his heart! He knew that the result of acting hastily would never be good. So he could only try to calm himself before lying on the bed and covering himself with the blanket.
Perhaps after sleeping for a while, he would be able to feel better. His body was still weak, and he wasn't ready to walk to his classroom when he couldn't even walk properly.
In a while, he closed his eyes and slept soundly as if he didn't have a trace of worry in his eyes.
But there was someone who couldn't accept this situation at all!
The male lead stared at Tyler's sleeping form for a long time without blinking. His gaze was cold as he continued to gaze at the human before him. His heart earlier had jumped up to his throat after seeing Tyler's weak body falling on the floor, and as per habit, he had levitated there to help the human only to realize that his body passed through the man.
He had never in his life felt so useless. The ghost couldn't even touch his baby and help him in need. And this was all because of that little girl, those school authorities, and that exorcist! They would all have to die!
Anger embraced his heart as his eyes turned blood red. But how did they all know that Tyler had a ghost following him? He knew that the school authorities should have been professionals who wouldn't ever believe in such supernatural rumors. Clearly, they had felt doubtful after the ex-female lead had told them everything, but they shouldn't have believed her words so naively.
Then the ghost suddenly realized what had happened.
That day, in a fit of anger, he had gone to the female lead to scaring her off, and Tyler also followed him since he was worried that he might murder Mae Whan. So at that time, it was possible that the authorities had sent people after Tyler and seen it all.
That was probably the reason why they came here instantly and sucked away his human's Yin-Yang eyes. So everything that happened right now was only because of Ja Seok's anger that day. If he had stayed by Tyler's side obediently, he knew that the authorities wouldn't have found out about his presence at all!
The ghost pursed his lips and lowered his head. If he still had a body, he would have cried already because of how regretful he felt.
But what could he do now when things had taken the worst turn in his life? He could only stand in the room and stare at his baby's face with a feeling of longing in his heart. Maybe he shouldn't even think about haunting anyone anymore. Otherwise, he might end up making things even more difficult for Tyler.
Just when he thought that he was about to drown in his sorrows, he heard the human sleeping inside the blankets uttering some words. The ghost scooted closer and heard those words coming out of Tyler's mouth. "Senior, don't go…."
The male lead's eyes softened at that. He raised his hands to caress the human's forehead only to remember that he couldn't touch his human anymore. And if he did, Tyler would only feel colder, which would disturb the human's sleep.
So the male lead curbed his desire to touch the man before him and stared at the latter for a long time. The corners of his eyes had turned red whenever he thought about what kind of unfortunate things were happening to them.
But he couldn't do anything. All he could do was wait: wait for Tyler to grow up, wait for his baby to become old and die of sickness. And this ghost knew that he would definitely meet his human and reincarnate together.
