Questions?

'No wait, the people who say they are cool aren't cool at all,' I remembered this suddenly and…

"Yeah, I am not cool, like totally so not cool," And with those words, I went to see the administrator of Ai's world walking down a path while a starry sky was above my head.

'The meeting should be over quickly,' Was my thought till I went to meet the person…

"Why did you even come here?" That was the question I was asked as soon as I met this small girl that looked about 6 years old.

"To ask if I could enter your world in order to fulfill a contract," I said naturally since I couldn't understand why this kid was frowning so much.

"Did you just think that I am a kid?" she asked and…

"Well, I won't really think 'Oh! It's the gigachad!!' when I see a 3-and-a-half-foot girl having a lollipop," My words made her eyes narrow in a slit.

"Are you trying to be funny?" She asked and I shook my head since I wasn't.

"Anyway, I am really too busy, there is no need to visit me and you should know that," She said and I sighed, I knew that but…

"I thought I should at least visit unless that causes some problems," She clicked her tongue as soon as she heard my words.

"So, you're the type of person who follows orders to a T, huh? Your types are so annoying always sticking to things and troubling others when you can just work your way around it, like no one gives a shit if you work while following the proper order, as long as you get the job done that is all that matters," She seemed to be ranting and I couldn't care less.

'I don't have many chances you know? I am trying to make sure that I don't fuck things up and lose this rare chance that came to me after 8000 years,' I clicked my tongue in my mind but didn't say anything.

"So, I am clear to do what I need to do, right?" I just needed to confirm this.

"Yeah, but seeing that you are here already, tell me what are you about to do?" She asked and I told her about it.

"Oh, that's great, do it quickly!!" She seemed enthusiastic about it.

"Does this have anything to do with you being so busy?" I asked and got an immediate nod.

"There are a lot of people who wish for Ai and her kids to live a happy life while this Kamiki Hikaru gets punished for what he has done, This is the main reason why so many twisted timelines are getting created in my universe and keeping a track of them is too overwhelming for me alone since by the time I track one, five more pop up," The girl sighed after taking out another lollipop and started to eat that.

"So, if I solve this, your workload will decrease since many will get their wish?" I concluded and she nodded her head quickly.

"Yes, I will get a brief period of rest before something crazy happens again," She said and I was a little confused.

"Why would something else happen?" I asked and she sighed like she was annoyed but not with me.

"It is like this, When you are hungry what do you wish for?" She asked and I replied.

"Food,"

"Yeah, then if you eat your fill, your mind will instantly look for something that you don't have and wish for that instead," She continued as I nodded since that was true.

You can only think about philosophical shit and other needs when you have the basic needs like food and clothes covered. No hungry man is going to care about world peace or why racism exists?

"Humans are greedy by nature, if they get one thing they wish for another, and when they get that, they want something else again, Humans from the day they are born till the day they die, they always want something that they don't have," But hearing this made me question.

"How would these people know that their wishes were fulfilled?" From what I understood the people who wished for Ai's happiness weren't from this world.

'So, how would they see? No, how did they even know her story in the first place?'

"That I do not know, maybe they'll see it in the form of a dream or some other form that could be accessed by a large number of people," She said and then looked at me.

"For all we know we might just be a bunch of words and pictures in a book in some other universe we don't know about, It has happened in my world where the worlds inside the storybooks are real universes that exist. So, the question is, did the world come into reality because many humans wished for it to be real after reading about it? or did it exist already and the writer of the story was able to connect to this universe through his imagination?" She was talking about some really profound things in the body of a 6-year-old while a eating lollipop.

"I guess there isn't actually any real answer for this," I also had the chance of visiting the worlds that I had once read about. So, I have also had this type of question a lot of times.

It was kind of a tricky question like that one question, What was it?

Ah! Did the chicken come first or the egg?

"We can just speculate but it won't do anything other than wasting our time, so let's just get to work," She said and I nodded.

"Here take this," I took out a lollipop that I made before.

"Should I call the FBI, maybe?" She said as she moved back and I deadpanned.

"Shut up, I am just giving this to you cause you seem to like lollipops," I sighed as she took it without saying anything since she wasn't in the mood for more jokes.

"I have tons of them anyway," She said and I shook my head.

"This isn't a normal lollipop, have you ever heard of a jawbreaker?" I questioned and she nodded.

"So, this is like a lollipop version so have fun, Bye," I said and went back to my shop.

'I spent too much time in there, Ai must've been feeling nervous,' I thought as I opened the door quickly.

"Ah, Ai it too-" But what I saw when I entered was.

"Mister you're back already? This cake is delicious I can't stop eating it~!!" Ai was smiling brightly while eating the last piece of the cake I had left on the table. She ate it all.

'Yep, she is cute...' I thought as I looked at the cream on her lips and her small tongue that was licking her fingers to get the cream there, '…and hot at the same time.'

"Anyway, I got the green light, I can start the job as soon as you want," I said while sitting down in front of her.

"I see, Thank you, mister," Ai smiled happily in front of me and there was a hint of her real feelings in there, she was actually happy.

"So, are you going to form a contract?" I asked a question that was basically a no-brainer but I needed to ask it for the sake of formality.

"Yes," And Ai nodded.

"So, you just want him dead?" I asked while setting up the contract.

"I'll leave that in your hands, Mister, I just want him gone," Ai didn't seem to care as she wasn't doing this for vengeance or anything, she just didn't want him around because he will cause problems for her and her kids.

"Ok," I nodded and gave the contract to Ai but unlike before she checked the contract this time and then signed.

'She is really serious about having her ex dead huh,' I didn't really say much as the contract became a ball of light and entered Ai's body.

And since this was taken care of...

"Mister, are we going to start right now?" Ai asked as she stood up and….

'Let's Fucking GOOOOOOOOOOO!' There was no way I am saying no to that so I nodded and kept my excitement contained within.
