Anne was lying on her bed, her mind wandering around as she tried to count the time. The witch came to check on her every day, she counted the hours and somehow predicted the visit. Whenever she heard her footsteps, Anne would jump into the bed and pretend that she was sleeping, she never knew if the ruse was successful or not, but at least she didn't have to deal with her story.
She took her time on the window, as the witch had already done her daily visit for today, Anne would have room for a breather, she counted the time once again, and called for her only companion in this lonely castle room.
"Chikara, are you there?"
A pair of eyes appear from her shadow, 'Yes, master.'
