"W-wait..." The word I spat out sounded so pathetic and desperate. The figure that was walking away turned her head towards me.
"Ehh? What now? Why are you hesitating now, you've gone this far. What's holding you back?" I saw her smirk.
"I'm... I'm not hesitating. I just wanna make the deal. Why not? I'll be gone in a few anyways."
The smirk widened. She did a little chuckle before her face straightened and talked again. "So what is it? What do you want?"
I thought for what seemed like a few minutes, while she kept the same, bored expression on her face, staring directly at me.
"I wish [everything could go exactly as I wanted]."
I expected her expression to change. The change of her eyes to light up and tilt her head at a slight angle. It would always happen when something at least mildly interesting happens, but it didn't. She kept standing there like a statue.
"Hmph." She turned around, nearing the door. "You're all the same, asking for the same things."
She slammed the door on her way out, causing the windows to vibrate violently. I looked back at the rope above me, remembering my task. I stepped on the bucket in front of me and swung the circle around my head.
