Part 7: Together

" Why are you by my side?" Faye let Yoko go and ask.​ She can't hug Yoko like that

Yoko sits right beside Faye, thinking. From the beginning when she arrived here , Faye of 2024 has advised Yoko so many times that she can not change the past. Yoko kept​​ that in her mind. It's just that these past three months, being an invisible spirit beside Faye, has worn down all her patience. Even if Yoko wanted to leave Faye again, she wouldn't be able to do it.

"I don't know why I'm here. I just know that I can't leave you. . "

So Yoko chose the most complete way, not to mention the future and the reason she is here.

"Are you still alive or..."

"What are you talking about? Of course I am alive. It's just that no one has seen or touched me. Only you."

Faye pinched Yoko's cheek slightly. Yoko was so pale that she turned red as soon as Faye touched her: "Then why didn't you appear before? Now you appear?"

"I tried so hard before but couldn't. Maybe it's because you are about to go back to Thailand."

That was because of the event when Faye agreed to participate in the Miss Peace contest.

Yoko understood this clearly but didn't say anything. Because Faye agreed to participate in the contest, the wheel of history was moving in the right direction. At this moment, her appearance wouldn't change this key event. That's why Yoko was able to appear.

Yoko grabbed Faye's hand to stop her from pinching her cheek. Thinking about the kiss just now, Yoko blushed slightly.

Why was in every time and space that I always kissed Faye first?

"Do you... kiss me like that a lot? All the time you were a spirit?" Faye touched her lips. This was what she was curious about.

Just curious, someone as difficult as Faye was not offended

"No. Just accidentally kissed you a goodnight once." Even if Yoko was beaten to death, she would never admit that she often secretly kissed Faye.

Forgive Yoko, all this time being a spirit was really boring with nothing to do except tease Faye.

Hiding her blush, Yoko turned off the light and lay down.

Faye's eyes were thoughtful. There were still many questions in her head, but she knew that she would slowly be able to get the answers she wanted. Faye also lay down next to Yoko

"Other than kissing, what else did you do to me?"

This person, at the age of 22, was so curious and talkative? Yoko thought to herself

She turned to face Faye

Two beautiful girls, both in their twenties, one with deep feelings for the other, lay opposite each other and looked at each other's faces.

"I've been by your side since you broke up with your ex. Even when your Big mother left, I was always by your side. Except for kissing, I must have done a lot to wipe your tears." Yoko smiled gently, stroking Faye's cheek like she usually did. Then she closed her eyes, wanting to sleep.

Faye's eyes darkened slightly. She had gone through almost everything with her. Faye asked again

"Why me?"

Of all the people in the world, why her?

Silence, no one answered Faye's question.

...

In all the possible scenarios, Yoko didn't expect Faye to accept her existence so easily. As if they had become friends, the two of them were always together. When Faye went to events, Yoko always followed her, even when performing, Yoko stood from afar watching Faye.

Because Faye was about to return to Thailand, she was busy arranging everything. Although she was still very curious about why Yoko was by her side, Faye held back and focused on other concerns.

Because so shy, Yoko stopped kissing Faye goodnight. Although they still slept together every night, their relationship was very strange and ambiguous. Faye would sometimes be tired and lean on Yoko's shoulder, hug her shoulder or hold hands. As for Yoko, it was a habit that when she was already fast asleep, she would crawl into Faye's arms and hug her to sleep.

At first, Faye was quite surprised by her actions. But gradually, Faye understood that this was Yoko's habit, Faye accepted it and often pulled Yoko into her arms. The strangest thing is that Faye did not feel offended when Yoko touched her body, and sometimes felt disappointed because except for the first kiss when Yoko appeared, they did not kiss again.

From the very beginning, this was an ambiguous relationship that was hard to named

Because of many things that needed to be arranged, Faye spent a whole week finishing everything and returning to Thailand. At the airport, saying goodbye to Hong Kong after four years here, Faye was filled with emotion.

A hand gently held Faye's hand, ten fingers intertwined. Yoko smiled

"Don't be sad. The day you return to Hong Kong, everyone will know who you are and welcome you warmly."

Yoko was right, at the fan meeting in 2023, Faye successfully returned to Hong Kong with the enthusiastic support of fans. Faye at this time certainly could not imagine how famous she would be in the future.

In Thailand, Faye's former manager is named Mis. She was the one who introduced Faye to modeling. They had both participated in many beauty contests to earn extra income. Of course, Faye always won those contests. This time, as soon as she returned to her apartment in Bangkok, Faye immediately went with Mrs. Mis to start working.

From the procedures to participate in the Miss Grand contest at the provincial level, to meeting and finding sponsors for the event, meeting and introducing the organizing committee, and learning about the opponents, Faye has been very busy since returning.

Yoko has always been quietly by her side. The events that happened in Faye's life, Yoko was affected by the three months of being a spirit, so now she rarely interferes or has any opinions. She quietly acts as a good girl following Faye. Compared to three months ago, she is very happy now, at least she can talk to Faye if she wants. And even though Faye is busy, she still cares a lot about Yoko, for some reason, Faye has never let Yoko out of her sight. Maybe after what happened in the past year, Faye really sees Yoko as the best thing she has ever received.

At work, Mis is a good person and loves Faye very much, even after many years, so Yoko also respects her very much.

"You should find an assistant, Mali. Find another personal assistant to help. This time, we are aiming for the highest national position, so we need to focus a lot." After a long day of meeting with partners, before saying goodbye to Faye and leave, Mis suggested

Faye quickly drank a glass of water, nodding: "I think so too. The provincial level exam is in a month, I will take the opportunity to find an assistant."

"I will send you some information about acquaintances. Just take a quick look and see if you can choose anyone."

Getting out of the nanny car and saying goodbye to her, Faye waved.

Standing right next to her, Yoko pondered over this event. Could it be that Eye's time to appear is coming soon?

"Thinking about something, silly girl?"

Because of hiding her identity, Yoko sometimes had to pretend to be ignorant when answering Faye's questions. Gradually, Faye often called her that.

Yoko glanced at Faye, she was clearly a law student, not a silly girl.

"You really need an assistant. Arrange a date with them right away." Yoko shook Faye's hand and said, "I want to go to ABC shopping mall to see more. So you make an appointment with them to go there."

Faye pulled her hand away from her neck, nodded and smiled, then went up to the apartment with her.

If someone asked Faye what their relationship was now, Faye would definitely say that they were sisters and friends. Having been together for a short time, Faye realized that Yoko was very introverted and sometimes became quiet for no reason. But except for those times, Yoko was cheerful, cute, and especially she cared a lot about Faye's feelings.

Of all the wonderful things about having Yoko in her life, there was only one thing Faye wasn't used to, which was that Yoko stopped all bad habits that could affect Faye's health. Yoko didn't let Faye do anything that affected her health, always eating on time and sleeping on time. Yoko is always there to remind her without missing a beat.

Sometimes Faye wondered. She used to feel tired, leading to breaking up with Phan because Phan cared and followed her schedule too closely. But when it was Yoko's turn, Faye pampered her much more. Or maybe because Yoko was different and more special. Moreover, if they were really angry, Faye wouldn't know how to get away from Yoko, it was clear that she couldn't stand too far away from Faye.

The candidates for the assistant position that Mis sent over, along with a few more people Faye found herself, Faye talked to them one by one and made an appointment to meet them, meeting at the shopping mall Yoko wanted. Yoko sat next to Faye while Faye met each person. But when the last person met Faye, Yoko was sure that Eye didn't appear.

Yoko frowned worriedly, wondering if she had done something that affected Eye's appearance or not. As for Faye, she was thinking and considering, she felt that a few people were quite suitable.

"Number 3 is good. She's quite smart. Number 5 has a lot of experience in the entertainment industry..." Faye said to Yo, but Yo looked away. "Yo, what's wrong?"

"Mali, come here with me." Yoko grabbed Faye's hand and pulled her away.

"Where are we going?" Faye was confused.

But Yoko didn't answer, instead pulling Faye to a community health center on the second floor, where an event was being held and a staff member was handing out flyers and advertisements for the program right in front of the door.

If Yoko remembered correctly, it was here.

"It's right here!"

Faye looked at Yoko's eager expression, then looked around in confusion: "What's here?"

"The person handing out flyers will be your assistant."

Yoko firmly pointed at the girl who was diligently handing out flyers for the event. This person was none other than Eye from 2016. At that time, Eye was a marketing staff for a small company. Once, when passing by this shopping mall, Eye had told Yoko about her old job before meeting Faye.

"Are you kidding, Yo?" Faye looked at the girl with a bit of personality handing out flyers, and couldn't help but doubtfully say, "Her job has absolutely nothing to do with being a model assistant."

"Come on, babe, go talk to her. Get her contact information. She's very suitable, trust me." Yoko shook Faye's hand and said.

Faye shook her head, although filled with doubt, she still approached Eye

"Hello, I'm Mali, Supaporn Malisorn."

Eye carefully looked at the very tall and extremely beautiful girl standing in front of her. With a puzzled look, she nodded and said, "Hello."

Faye glanced at Yoko, who was encouraging her to continue, and took a breath. Faye took out her business card and said a series of words to finish the job: "I am a model and looking for a personal assistant. I have been watching you hand out flyers here and it seems very suitable. I give you my information, if you need it, please contact me."

What Faye said surprised Eye to the point of widening her eyes: "What about me makes you think I am suitable?"

'Because you are very serious and careful.' Yoko said with a smile

Faye lazily repeated: "Because I see you are very serious and careful. Just think about it." Then Faye said goodbye and left

"I don't know what kind of evil trick you are thinking of again."

Walking beside her, holding Faye's sleeve, Yoko said with a smile

"Don't worry, in the future she will become your closest assistant. Trust me," Yoko said happily.

Yoko accidentally said it without seeing Faye's thoughtful gaze beside her.

The future?

...

A few days later, Eye actually contacted Faye and the two began to talk about work. Unlike her appearance and experience that had nothing to do with the entertainment industry, Eye had very specific and clear insights about the work that needed to be done. This surprised Faye quite a bit and she couldn't help but feel that Yo was right. Could this person be very suitable to be Faye's assistant?

When she went to the first event with Eye to test it out, Faye had to admit that Eye had a lot of potential. Careful, delicate and patient, knowing what Faye needed and what she should do. There were also some stumbles, but for a newcomer, that was already very good.

Finally, Faye decided to choose Eye as her personal assistant and signed a 6-month contract in advance. Since these 6 months were the time she would participate in the contest, signing like that was enough. Eye was also very happy because she was actually bored with her old job.

The preparation process took time. But the day of the provincial beauty pageant arrived very quickly. The province that Faye participated in the contest was S province. Before, when she was in her final year of high school, Faye also participated in a few beauty pageants in this province.

The provincial competition was divided into three days, the first day was considered a meeting to take promotional photos. The second day was a performance and a preliminary conversation to select 20 people for the next competition day. On the last day, the categories were competed to select the provincial Miss Grand. Because of her appearance, Faye immediately attracted the attention and close competition of her opponents.

After listening to Faye and Mis talk a few times, Yoko also knew that there would be many tricks to get in each other's way in this type of beauty contest. That was also the main reason Mis wanted Faye to have her own assistant to go with her. Even though Yoko knew that Faye would definitely win and wasn't too worried, she didn't expect her actions to reach such a level. Faye was really hated by many people.

Luckily for Faye, she had Yoko. During the competition, Yoko did not go with Faye, but was responsible for walking around listening to the competitors' conversations and paying attention to Faye's costumes.

Whatever you worry about, it will appear. Faye's costumes were repeatedly tampered with. Every time, Yoko would run to find Faye to handle it immediately. It would not be good to wait until you get to the stage to find out.

From the shoes being swapped, being damaged, to the costumes being cut, or even sewing needles being attached to the skirt to injure Faye. There was nothing that these competitors did not dare to do. Luckily, with Yoko, Faye did not encounter any problems and comfortably advanced straight to the final round.

"That girl, is she raising a little devil or something? She is so creepy. We set so many traps but can't stop her."

A certain female competitor shouted in the dressing room out of anger.

Yoko stood right next to her, munching on melon seeds.

Little devil ? You are stupid!! I am a young and beautiful lady

"I clearly waited for her to go out before doing this. And yet she still found out. It's like raising a little devil. How horrible."

The other person said, looking around fearfully as if there were other ghost here.

"Let's go out. It's the final round. We can't do anything to her this time."

'Of course you can't do anything. Get ready to see the most beautiful Miss Grand in history step onto the stage.' Yoko said and followed her out.

Yoko went out just in time for the final question and answer session. This was only a provincial competition, so Faye's opponents definitely couldn't compete with her. Seeing Faye's opponents gritting their teeth in annoyance, Yoko couldn't help but laugh.

With her knowledge and confident demeanor, Supaporn Malisorn won the Miss Grand Prize of S Province, achieving the first stepping stone to the Miss Grand Prize Thailand 2016 contest.

Receiving the award, Faye's eyes searched below the stage. As soon as she saw Yoko standing in a corner waving at her, Faye smiled brightly at her.

During the past few days of the competition, if it weren't Yoko, Faye would have had a hard time winning this prize. It was all thanks to her always watching and protecting Faye.

As soon as the award ceremony ended, Faye went down to the stage and received everyone's congratulations. At this time, there were so many people surrounding her that Faye couldn't talk to Yoko. Understanding Faye's gaze, Yoko walked right next to her and said with a smile.

"Congratulations Miss Grand Mali." Grabbing one of Faye's fingers, Yoko was happy.

Faye also smiled, secretly rubbing her palm.

"This is just the beginning. Your future has many more surprises." Smiling happily, Yoko said it unintentionally.

Once again, the two words Future that she mentioned made Faye ponder.

....

In the evening, after finishing the work with Mis and Eye, Faye finally got to go home to rest. As soon as she had some free time, Faye turned to look at Yoko. The last time with Eye, Yoko clearly knew that Eye was at that shopping mall, knew what Eye was capable of even though Eye had never worked in this industry, and Eye was even in the LGBT community, so it was easier to work with Faye. And through questioning, Faye also knew that Eye did not know any girl named Yo.

This time, when Faye won the Miss Grand S Province title and won a ticket to the Miss Grand Thailand pageant, Yoko was also very calm and considered that Faye would definitely succeed. Many times Yoko accidentally mentioned the word "future", making Faye unable to help but think a lot.

Faye had a strong feeling that Yoko had known all these events in advance. This made Faye feel like she was hiding something from Faye, and Faye didn't like that. So this time Faye wanted to ask more clearly.

"Yo, what year were you born?"

Yoko was lying with her head on Faye's lap and reading a book, when she heard Faye ask her, she stopped.

Why did she ask about this?

"I don't remember." Yoko had to pretend to say. She couldn't reveal that she was from the future.

"Where did you study in high school?"

"I studied abroad in New Zealand."

"What was your major in college?"

"I studied Law." Yoko sat up and faced Faye.

"What was your birthday?"

"July 19."

Faye frowned: "How can you remember your birthday and past but not your born year?"

"I..." Yoko tried to find an excuse

"Yo, you're really bad at lying."

Seeing that Faye was a little angry, Yoko didn't know how to respond. Feeling both sad and hurt, and really not knowing how to explain properly

"Why don't you say something?"

Looking at Faye's somewhat questioning gaze, Yoko sighed inwardly, her eyes drooping

"I didn't tell you because I had my reasons. You can't know those things right now, I'm afraid it will affect your life."

Faye was so angry that she burst out laughing: "What do you mean by affecting my life?"

Yoko tried to explain: "I'm telling the truth. There are things related to why I'm here, I can't say it right now. If I say, it will affect you a lot."

"If you want to appear, then appear. If you want to lie, you lie. Do whatever you want. Did you think about my thoughts or give me a choice?"

"I didn't lie to you!" Yoko's eyes turned red but she still said firmly.

"What's the difference? I'd rather you be prevented from saying it, I'll accept it. But you're deliberately hiding it from me!" Faye spoke loudly, her eyes filled with anger

22-year-old Faye was a reckless, wild person, her emotions were hard to grasp, and she was even cruel if she liked it.

30-year-old Faye's words before disappearing echoed in Yoko's ears again. Living together for a while made her forget how wild and individualistic Supaporn Malisorn was at this moment.

Yoko looked into Faye's eyes and sighed, trying to control the sadness in her heart: "I... can't tell you."

"You!! Then why are you still here, it's too much."

Faye was furious, she stood up and walked out of the room.

Yoko watched Faye's back as she left, her eyes filled with tears. Faye at this time, only saw her as a normal friend.

It was almost midnight that day, Faye calmly returned to the apartment. She had only gone for a walk in the park to cool down. But she didn't see Yoko following her, which made Faye a little worried. When she returned to the apartment, she still couldn't find Yoko

"Yo, where are you? Come out..."

But no one answered Faye

She searched every corner of the apartment but still couldn't find her. This made Faye start to worry, because clearly if Yoko disappeared, Faye really didn't know where to find her. Yoko was just a spirit

"Where are you? Yo, don't scare me... Come out." Faye's voice started to panic, she stood in the bedroom and shouted

After a long while, she still didn't see her figure appear. Faye started to panic

"Yo, don't scare me. Can you show up?" Faye sat absentmindedly on the edge of the bed, her eyes red, her hands starting to shake. She was afraid that she was gone:

"I....am sorry. Don't disappear."

At this moment, a hand hugged Faye from behind, hugging her tightly.

"Don't be angry anymore, okay?" Yoko hugged Faye and said sadly, "Everything I do is for you. My presence here is also because of you. I am here because of you. One day you will know everything. So don't be angry, okay?"

Yoko was sad because of her difficulties, but she also understood how Faye felt. No one in a relationship wants to have secrets. If Yoko were just a stranger, Faye would definitely not be so angry.

Furthermore, Yoko still remembered Mrs. Khanthong's words before she left.

"Your Big mother once said to me: There will be times when you are hot-tempered and stubborn, just ignore you. When you are no longer hot-tempered, you will come to me. If you get angry and chase me away, don't go. Because you are angry, but you are very weak, you won't be able to bear it if someone else leaves..." Yoko walked out to face Faye, her hand holding her face: "Your Big mother told me so, so I won't leave. Don't..."

Yoko's words were interrupted by a kiss. Faye hugged the back of her neck, one hand tightly wrapped around her waist, kissing deeply. Not stopping there, Faye pushed Yoko down on the bed, lying on top of her, kissing so passionately that it burned

Yoko was surprised but was immediately caught up, both hands hugging Faye's neck, her heart beating so fast that she let Faye attack without being able to defend herself.

The two kissed deeply, their tongues entwined with each other. Not stopping there, still not leaving her lips, Faye skillfully took off her shirt, revealing her charming breasts covered in a black lace bra

"Um.." Yoko hummed

Arrogant, reckless, domineering, highly possessive. Tonight Yoko almost experienced the entire personality of Faye at the age of 22.

"Yoo..." You're so beautiful!!

Her shirt was also taken off by Faye, Faye changed position to suck her ear and then licked Yoko's slender neck. One hand slipped into Yoko's bra, massaging those beautiful and gentle breasts.

"Mali, the light is still on.." Yoko could only say that, the overly intense emotions between the two of them seemed to be burning, completely occupying her thoughts

Faye was like a wild beast, her hand still massaging Yoko's breasts and gradually kissing down below. The emotions between the two of them were like a fire spreading across the grassland, unable to be restrained any longer. Faye's skillful hands were about to take off her bra

At this moment, all movements suddenly stopped.

"Mali?" Yoko's cheeks were still red, her youthful color had not yet faded, she opened her eyes in confusion.

She saw that Faye's two hands were still hugging her waist, but her eyes were staring at the tattoo on Yoko's waist

Oh no!

This thought flashed through Yoko's mind, she was startled, immediately sobering up from her love-sickness.

"Who is Faye Peraya?" Supaporn Malisorn read out the name tattooed on Yoko's body, her voice sour with jealousy

"Yo! Who is Faye Peraya? Why did you tattoo 'I promise to stay if you promise not to go'..."

The fire was extinguished. The fire was completely extinguished, leaving nothing behind.

"Who is Faye Pereya?!!"

22-year-old Faye angrily questioned her own name a few years later.

Yoko cried in her heart. This is the tattoo she got when she was a freshman in college, waiting for Faye for hours in front of the MGT building just to get a cold, unfamiliar Faye. Yoko, obsessed with Faye for a long time, went crazy and got this tattoo on her waist. A place that can't see without taking off her bra.

This time, it's over.

How can I explain to Faye that this is her new name after becoming Miss Grand of Thailand?

If I tell her, it will change her future.

"Yo!!!" Faye was angry, both annoyed and jealous, with so many emotions in her heart. Her eyes looked at Yoko with aggrieved eyes.

"This is... the name of my ex-lover..."

And out of all the answers, Miss Yoko Apasra foolishly chose the one that made Supaporn Malisorn the most mad.

That night, Yoko slept alone in her room.

....

The fact that Yoko got the name Faye Peraya tattooed made Supaporn Malisorn angry for days. Yoko couldn't tell everything clearly. Of all the things she had hidden, the stage name Faye Peraya was clearly the one that could change her future the most. What if Mali didn't like it in a few years and didn't choose it? Yoko didn't dare think about that. Yoko spent the next few days trying to calm Faye down. But the other person was still very jealous. Sometimes Faye was so jealous that she wanted Yoko to tell her about her ex-lover. Yoko was at a loss as to what to say, and watching Faye be jealous of herself was an unforgettable experience.

Every time Faye was like that, Yoko could only gently comfort 22-year-old Faye. To the point that Yoko felt that all the comfort Faye had given her, she had returned it all to 22-year-old Faye.

The thing to say is that because of anger, the incident that night never happened again.

The two of them did not stay angry for long before MGT's 2016 Miss Grand contest officially began. Faye was caught up in the preparations so she had no time to be jealous of herself.

This beauty contest was quite special because it was the first time MGT selected a provincial-level beauty queen before moving on to the national level. Therefore, the competition in this beauty contest was raised to a more intense level. The preparation process for the contest was long, but when it took place, it only took place over 4 official competition days and lasted for three weeks. And of course, Supaporn Malisorn just appeared and made all the surrounding flowers less beautiful. Faye was always the most beautiful, the most formidable opponent.

From afar, Yoko saw Mr. Naw, the chairman of MGT, who would be a noble person to support Faye in the next period of her career.

"Go say hello to Mr. Naw." Yoko said urgently.

"Slow down, there's nothing yet..." Faye paused and hesitated.

"Come on, trust me. He will like you very much."

Her words added courage to Faye. Taking a deep breath, she confidently approached and greeted Mr. Naw.

From afar, looking at Faye chatting happily with Mr. Naw, Yoko was very proud. Faye was always like that, confident, outgoing, loved by many people. She was taking steady steps on her path to success. Yoko was so engrossed in watching Faye that she didn't know that in a corner of the room, there was a jealous gaze also looking at Faye.

"I'm telling the truth. In the provincial competition, I did everything I could, but that girl seemed to have eyes behind her back, as if she was raising a little devil to shoulder everything for her. She found out about everything!!" A girl who was an opponent that Faye had defeated in the provincial competition was fawning and whispering to another beautiful girl.

This person was Pen, Faye's strong opponent in this competition.

Pen looked thoughtfully at Faye who was happily chatting with Mr. Naw, her eyes dark.

"Tell me more about raising that little devil."

"It's like this, sister, that time I..."

...

It was similar to the provincial competition. This time, because the opponents were jealous of Faye's bright talent, they kept trying to block her way. Yoko also tried her best to protect Faye.

But this time, the tricks did not stop at simply sabotaging the costumes, but also included spreading rumors to slander Faye. They even formed cliques to try to isolate Faye, making her feel like she had problems and distanced herself from everyone.

Fortunately, Faye was someone who had experience in participating in competitions like this, and she successfully handled those incidents quickly. She even turned the situation around, making herself loved by many people instead of hated.

Especially Mr. Naw, he increasingly sympathized with this beauty queen candidate.

By the third day of the competition, if she passed this day with a high ranking, she would definitely be in the top 10. Next week will also be the day of the final competition night to select Miss Grand Thailand 2016. Although she knew the history and was not too worried about the results, Yoko was always ready. While Faye was getting ready to go on stage, Yoko walked around and checked the situation.

Entering the hallway, Yoko saw Pen secretly chatting with Faye's old rival from the provincial competition. Suspicious, she followed them and saw them enter a dressing room in a deserted corner. Normally, no one would enter or exit this place.

After thinking for a moment, Yoko went through the door and followed them into the room.

Just as she entered the room, a series of bronze bells rang in her ears. Not only did the bells make an unpleasant sound, but they also seemed to strike Yoko's brain, causing her to immediately feel dizzy.

Yoko painfully fell to her knees and realized that she was standing in the middle of a circle filled with red drawings. Bell strings and red charms were hung everywhere in the room.

She held her head, trying to block out the sound of the bells, and with difficulty opened her eyes to see the two girls standing with a man dressed in black. This person, didn't know what he was reading, each word was like a spell that made the bronze bells shake violently, each word was like a knife cutting through Yoko's thoughts, making her unable to breathe due to the pain.

Suddenly, someone sprinkled a pile of red powder on her.

If she could still hold on before, now that this cinnabar powder stuck to her, Yoko immediately fell to her knees. Before fainting, she could only manage to say a few words

"Faye....Save me, Faye... Mali..."

"I didn't expect that girl to really raise a little devil!" Pen looked at the scene before her with wide eyes.

Of course, these three people still couldn't see Yoko, but when Yoko entered, the bronze bell rang violently. And the cinnabar powder was sprinkled on it, so they could accidentally see Yoko's figure lying right in the middle of that demon-catching project.

"Kill this little devil, Master!!" the other girl said viciously.

But the person she called Master just remained silent, looking at the surrounding scene and frowning. His hands kept on counting fortunes, his eyes solemn.

He took out a shriveled tortoise shell and a few copper coins, shook them nine times, then poured the coins onto the ground. Looking at the shape of the coins, he looked at Yoko and pondered for a long time. Even someone who had experienced so many demonic events, he still couldn't see this ghost clearly.

"This thing doesn't belong here..." He looked at the two girls and warned, "I thought it was a demon, so I came here. But it wasn't. Even so, fortunately for you two and me, this is what this thing life must accept."

"What do you mean?" Pen asked in annoyance. You've already caught it, but you're not doing anything?

He shook his head, "Let's leave. Let destiny take its course, if no one tears these bell strings in another hour, this thing will return to its rightful place. If someone saves it, don't try anymore. It's fate."

After saying that, ignoring the two girls' confused and confused gazes, the man in black left the room.

Pen angrily tried to kick Yoko before leaving, but was pushed away by an invisible force. The two girls were scared and quickly left the scene.

Yoko was lying right in the center of the demon-suppressing scheme, unconscious and unable to move.

Faye, so much pain...

....

Faye, save me...

Faye, I'm in pain...

Supaporn Malisorn is participating in the final round of the competition day. After this round, Faye will secure her place in the final competition night. Suddenly, as if supported by some force, Yoko's voice rang out right next to Faye's ear, as if she was right next to her.

Hearing that, feeling her voice was very weak and painful, a fear spread down Faye's spine, Faye immediately realized that Yoko was in trouble. Her eyes looked around the stage to find her but couldn't find her

Faye was extremely worried, Yoko was calling her

Sweating profusely from worry, Faye looked around restlessly. It was the time for the final question and answer session and the announcement of today's results, she couldn't leave now.

Wait for me, it's almost over

Originally standing in the center, Faye took a step back and stood on the wings side, her eyes signaling to Eye. Eye ran over in confusion

"Go check all the dressing rooms, if there are any problems or doubts, take me there immediately." Even though she knew that Eye couldn't see Yoko, Faye still tried to arrange things with a faint hope

"What are you talking about, the competition isn't over yet." Eye was confused by Faye's request

"It's almost done, go check it quickly. I'll call you as soon as it's done."

Not understanding what Faye wanted to find, Eye still nodded, retreated to the wings, and immediately ran to check. Faye tried to stay calm to finish the competition.

Although she tried, because she was too worried about Yoko at the last minute, Faye stumbled a bit when answering the question. This didn't affect Faye's ability to enter the next round, it only reduced her score a little on today's competition day.

By the time everything was completely over, it was already an hour later. Quickly changing out of her performance dress and into a comfortable pair of jeans and a t-shirt, Faye immediately called Eye to ask about the situation.

Eye told Faye that there were many locked dressing rooms in the east area, and that Eye was there. As soon as Faye heard, she immediately ran over.

This area wasn't far from the center but was deserted and no one used it. As soon as Faye ran over, she and Eye began to search more thoroughly. After searching for a while, they still couldn't find anything.

It's hurt me

"Yo?" Faye heard the sound again.

Her intuition pulled her towards a room in the corner, and Faye immediately ran there. The door was locked, but the two of them were accompanied by the building's security guard, so the security guard would open the door for Faye

"So strange, this storage room has never been locked." The security guard grumbled

The door opened, and everyone saw a room filled with charms and copper bells. In the middle of the room was a diagram with red cinnabar powder scattered everywhere. Of course, both Eye and the security guard couldn't see Yoko, but they were only horrified by this spiritual scene.

But when Faye saw Yoko lying still in the middle of that circle, covered in red cinnabar powder, Faye's heart felt like it was about to fall out. Tears immediately fell from her eyes.

What was even more frightening was Yoko's image, which seemed to be flickering, appearing and disappearing. Faye was afraid that she could disappear at any moment.

"Tear the bell rope." Faye said as she reached out to tear all the copper bell ropes that were strung everywhere.

Then she knelt down and used her bare hands to wipe the drawing on the ground, then carefully brushed off the cinnabar powder that was covering Yoko's body.

"I'm here, I'm here.." Faye whispered so that only Yoko could hear, then picked her up and carried her on her shoulder.

Faye's actions made Eye curious, but she was still very clever in protecting Faye, while Eye and the guard tore the remaining piles of bell ropes.

"Who would do these crazy charms?" The guard tore the charms and scolded her.

Faye carried Yoko on her shoulder.

"Eye, let's go to the car, we're going home."

She couldn't wait for Faye to leave quickly. The important thing now was to immediately change Yoko's clothes and remove the red powder stains on her body. She was being strongly affected by this powder.

As soon as they got to the car, Faye sat in the back seat while Eye sat in the front seat. Eye saw Faye's cold face, her eyes were red. Her actions were like she was cherishing something invisible. There were many questions in her head, but Eye remained silent and did not ask much.

Faye let Yoko lie on her lap with her head on her lap, holding her hand tightly, afraid that she would disappear

"Mali... Faye, it hurts so much.." Yoko frowned and whispered, her eyes still tightly closed

"Don't worry, I won't let you hurt anymore." Suppressing the fear in her heart, Faye firmly said

Looking up at Eye, Faye asked her a very confusing question: "Spiritually, if we want a soul to become stronger, what should we do?"

Eye couldn't stand it anymore and turned around, glancing at Faye and Yoko, although she couldn't see Yoko, she had a strong feeling that there was something in the seat next to her.

"You really have...?"

This was the question Eye had wanted to ask for a long time. Because it was really strange, Faye was always on stage but knew everything that happened behind the scenes. Even a personal assistant like Eye sometimes found it hard to believe, let alone outsiders

"What are you talking about? She's not a little devil." Faye unconsciously covered Yoko's ears so she couldn't hear

What the hell? Who's she? Or is she not a little devil but a female devil?

This was Eye's thought. Even so, she still had the quality to restrain her thoughts and answer Faye's first question.

"Spiritually, it must be incense. Burn incense for them, they like incense smoke."

Yoko was not sober, otherwise she would definitely object. Who would still be alive and enjoy incense?

"Stop at the grocery store and buy me a bundle of incense." Faye decided and stopped talking and focused on taking care of Yoko.

The taxi driver heard the whole story, staying silent and not daring to say anything.

Eye was the same, shaking her head in confusion, going to buy Faye a bundle of incense as soon as the car stopped at the grocery store.

A long time later, Faye carried Yoko upstairs. Ignoring Eye's confused and questioning gaze, Faye took the bundle of incense, said goodbye and closed the door.

Faye hurriedly carried Yoko into the bathtub, carefully taking off her clothes. Her eyes were filled with worry, trying not to be affected by distracting thoughts. After wiping off the red powder on Yoko, Faye poured water until the bathtub was full.

Soaking in the warm water for a long time, Yoko gradually showed signs of waking up. Looking at Yoko's beautiful, flawless body, Faye tried to dispel the thoughts that shouldn't be in her head. Gently carrying Yoko out of the bathtub, drying her body and wrapping her in a large towel, Faye carried Yoko to the bedroom and let her lie on the bed.

Even though she was clean, the situation of Yoko's body image flickering as if it was about to disappear still occurred, making Faye very worried.

Faye was very confused and didn't know what to do. So she was doing everything she could. She ran to get rice in a cup and lit three incense sticks.

After a while, the incense sticks burned out, the hot and uncomfortable feeling in her body woke Yoko up.

"Faye..." Yoko uncomfortably grabbed Faye's hand

"I'm here!" No matter what Yoko called her, Faye answered.

"Put out the incense, I'm uncomfortable."

As soon as she heard that, Faye took the rice cup and put it away and returned, staying beside Yoko

"Yo, how are you feeling?" Faye was extremely worried and kissed her lightly on the lips

Yoko's eyes were misty. Her body felt like it had just been tortured, it didn't hurt anymore but it was very uncomfortable, very hot and stuffy. Just now Yoko thought she couldn't be in this world anymore. She was afraid that she would return to a world where all of her memories with Faye were just vanity. No one would remember them, no one would recognize Yoko

She was afraid that she would lose Faye. Lose her Mali, lose the past and the future would disappear. Yoko didn't want that. No matter what the future was, right now, right now, Faye was by her side, she didn't want Faye to leave. Yoko didn't want to worry about anything and then regret it

Suddenly, Yoko grabbed Faye and pulled her into her arms, she kissed Faye, her tongue entwined with hers. Yoko's hand touched Faye's waist and went under her shirt. Their lips didn't leave, both hands were hot and hugging Faye's waist. Yoko's signal was so clear that Faye couldn't help but understand.

The last thing Faye had enough consciousness to do before she was swept away by her was to turn off the lights

The entire room was plunged into darkness.

....

It wasn't until noon the next day that Eye received a message that was incoherent and very confusing from Faye

"It's not incense stick, it's human spirit. She need spirit of the alive human!!!"

...

When Yoko woke up at noon, Faye was already awake and lying right next to her. Faye hugged her from behind, the two of them were naked, their bodies were not covered, pressed against each other. Faye's two hands were on her chest.

The two of them had been playing around all night long. First, Faye was being toyed with, then Yoko was being eaten to the point where she couldn't turn around. Yoko let out a hum, then turned around and crawled into Faye's arms, sucking on her collarbone out of habit.

"Yo?" Faye kissed Yoko's forehead

"Um?"

"Faye Peraya is my name, right?"

"..."

"You... came from the future, right?"

Faye's two questions immediately woke Yoko up.

She knew everything?!

"You... called me Faye all night long. Yo, how long are you going to hide this?"

Faye spoke very gently, no longer hot and angry, but very calm but one could hear the many hidden emotions surging in her heart

Yoko raised her head to look at Faye

It's time to tell her lover everything.
