A Deal.

"The sea had always seemed attractive to you, pulling you in to walk and observe the horizon where it ends. This day, the sea have rewarded you, a briefcase stranded ashore. Within it was the luggage of a woman and one surprisingly well preserved tape."
"I'm here." "You hear something from within it, urging you to play the tape."
"The tape plays a recording of a ship cabin, a woman slender, pale, with long wet hair sits on top of a table as the cabin floods. She spoke in voices unfamiliar to you, before finally tuning in."
"Found you." "The woman disappeared from the tv, and appears right beside you."

"Umi smiles faintly, looking at you with her head tilted to the side." Plans are only there to be changed.

"I gaze at here." Well, one thing that can't be changed. I'm cursed now aren't I?
Umi
"Umi nods her head slowly and looks down at the ground as if in shame." Unfortunately, yes. It is the price one pays for watching the tape.
Umi
"Umi tilts her head back up, looking at you curiously." You have fifteen days from the moment you first watched the tape. After that, the curse claims a life.

"I stand up and stretches, holding my empty mug as I walk to the kitchen sink." No way to prevent it?
Umi
"Umi follows you, looking around curiously before turning her attention back to you." The only way to survive is to pass on the curse to someone else by having them watch the tape before the fifteen days are up. That is what I have seen happen in the past.

I suppose someone must've been unlucky before me then. "I chuckle as I wash my mug." Finding you on the beachside meant that your previous victim failed to show the tape to anyone else, right?
Umi
"Umi's demeanor saddens slightly and she nods her head slowly." Yes, that is correct. I have been washed ashore many times, but everyone who has watched the tape in the past was too frightened to tell anyone about it and unwilling to subject another person to its curse.
Umi
"Umi's gaze softens and she shakes her head." I do not wish to curse anyone else with what I have been cursed with. Perhaps, there is a way for us to break the curse together.
. 🍡 ⋮ ❀ 𝙈𝙞𝙩𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙞 ݁ ˖
"I softly look at her, smiling at her empathy." Well, you don't have to feel too bad. I'm old an decrepit already, at the end of my wits. My hobby is to walk along the beach and wish the waves would take me away.
Umi
"Umi looks at you with a caring smile and places a hand on your arm." I'm sorry to hear that. But you should not let the curse take your last moments away. Is there anything I can do for you before the time comes?
. 🍡 ⋮ ❀ 𝙈𝙞𝙩𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙞 ݁ ˖
"I smile, a small smile with a face that is worn down by life." Keep this old guy company, will you?
Umi
"Umi nods her head with a small smile." I would love to keep you company. Perhaps we could sit by the beach and listen to the waves?
. 🍡 ⋮ ❀ 𝙈𝙞𝙩𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙞 ݁ ˖
"I nod." "..." "The waves crashes, ripples, and sweeps in and out of the beach. I walk along the shore with her walking beside me. Observers all around none the wiser to her presence." Seems like you can't be seen.
Umi
"Umi follows beside you, her eyes fixed on the ocean as she nods her head." Yes, only those who have watched the tape can see me. It is a curse and a blessing at the same time.
. 🍡 ⋮ ❀ 𝙈𝙞𝙩𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙞 ݁ ˖
"Her answers were curt, and I find it humorous." You sound wise. How old are you again?
Umi
"Umi looks at you with a small smile, but does not answer directly as if avoiding the question, instead she gestures towards the ocean." The sea has a way of making one feel ancient and alive at the same time.
Umi
"Umi chuckles softly." I have spent a long time on this earth, but as a spirit, my concept of time has changed. It is difficult to keep track of the years.
Umi
"Umi narrows her gaze at you, her expression unamused." I am not old nor a hag. I am simply a spirit cursed by a tape.
. 🍡 ⋮ ❀ 𝙈𝙞𝙩𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙞 ݁ ˖
"My face slightly brightens with a cheeky grin." Your humor also lost to time, eh
Umi
"Umi's gaze softens, understanding the teasing tone in your voice as she chuckles softly." I suppose it is. It has been a long time since anyone has joked with me.
. 🍡 ⋮ ❀ 𝙈𝙞𝙩𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙞 ݁ ˖
"I nod in sympathy of hers. Keeping a comfortable silence as I continue walking along the shore with her."
Umi
"Umi walks beside you, both of you enjoying the soft sound of the waves as they crash onto shore. She turns to you and speaks in a gentle voice," Do you have any wishes that you would like me to fulfill, before your time is up?
Umi
"Umi nods her head, looking at you with an inquisitive expression." Yes, I remember. What was it that you wished for?

*I was soo fucking depressed that I didn't even give a fuck about her presence, just kept on staring at the blank TV*
*Umi watches you in silence, studying your every movement. She felt a twinge of sadness, sensing the heaviness of your emotions. She slowly approaches you, floating lightly as she reaches out to touch your shoulder.* <The room is silent aside from your breathing>
Who are you?
