"So? What's the thing you need? " Asked Lily.

"I - I need a soul. " Replied the witch.

"You need a soul?! "

"Uhm.. Yeah. I do. "

"Hm.. "Lily starts pondering over what to do.

" I just need. One. Pure. Soul. That's it, and it's also one of the main reasons why I chose you. "

"You chose me? "

"Yeah. I did. "

"Oh."

"To turn back the curse. I need a soul. A pure soul , and you!...... Your soul is really pure. If you agree to give me your soul. I will return your family back! I promise. I really promise! I swear I have never. Ever! Broke a promise. Please, help me. "

"What......! I- I need some time to think about all this. This is too much to take in. " Said Lily trembling in fear, thinking about the consequences she might have to face just because of one wrong decision.

"Oh! Well. You can stay at my home for tonight, and think about it all tomorrow! " Said the witch.

"O-ok! "

They both headed over to the witch's house for the night and peacefully slept. Or did they?

At morning,

The witch, and Lily are still asleep. But why? It's already 11:46 a.m. No one should be asleep for that long.

Last night,

Lily and the witch went to the witch's house and they had a green drink before heading over to bed. Then they slept. Is it something with the drink?

Present time.....

Lily suddenly woke up just to find out that it was already, " 1:30 p.m.?!..... What had happened? I never slept that much! I can't believe it! "

She wandered out to find the witch but couldn't find her anywhere in the house. So she headed outside and started roaming around the forest.

"What are you doing? " A voice came from her back.

"A-ah! " Saying this Lily turned back just to find out that, " Oh, it's just you Ms. Witch. "

"Ah. Yes. It is me indeed, but, can you like..... Uh..... Not call me Ms. Witch.? It's a little bit too formal and I'm not that old either. "

"Ah! Ok!... That's fine with me. So... What should I call you? " Asked Lily as they both started walking around the forest.

"Hm.... Just call me Lorinda. That's my name."

"Ok then, Lorinda. "

Who knows how they were asleep for that long? Maybe HE knows? We'll see......
