It was enough now, how many had there been, how long had it been? The Jin gave me what I’d asked for.. well, I’d been a young girl, with young girl wants, wishes and desires. I’d wanted to be beautiful and I was, the most beautiful girl ever born, I wanted to be rich.. didn’t everyone?
I wanted to live forever.. and therein lies the thorn, the glitch, wrench in the works.. I asked to live forever.. The Jin had stared at me for a moment, then she told me, be careful what I wished for.. Even in her evil state, she’d tried to warn me, of course the warning was without emphasis, without the umph that would have made me realize.. but, I am not being fair, nothing would have swayed me from that wish, not god almighty.

Days dragged on, nights were slow, seasons came and went, people came and went, still I survived, still I lived.
Pictures I’d had were now all yellowed, some crumbled when I touched them ,, all I had were my memories. I look in the mirror..still beautiful..sigh,
Time stands still for me.
