Missed Meeting
I glanced at my phone, checking the time.
The clear sky was dyed orange as the sun slowly started disappearing among the skyscrapers, the last lingering rays falling onto the rooftop bar where I was waiting for Alyssa. It was already summer, and the temperature during the day was hot, but now that the evening came, I could feel a pleasant chill on my skin.
I took out a cigarette and lit it up, observing people passing on the streets below.
She was getting late.
Which was extremely unusual. In fact, it was the first time ever when I arrived before her. She was always the one waiting for me. As she should.
It was already the second world the boy and I had been transferred to since I made the deal with her, the second transfer taking place only a month ago. Everything has been going perfectly fine, to the point that it was a bit boring.
Well, at least everything for me was going fine. I can't say the same about the girl.
