A promise: That changed my life

And at the time, I don't know, neither was I able to figure out who was more stupid Adah or me...Definitely both of us at some point. Me for giving her such an idiotic yet dangerous task and She who even got ready to do it, with a bit of hesitation and slight fear on her face which was reasonable.

"Are you sure?" I asked, calmly yet amused.

She gulped the saliva, staring at the ocean before it turned towards me, "I-I will jump." She says, hastily.

"Go ahead," I indicated to her to do it. She looked at me with the hope that I will stop her or something and when she didn't find that in me, she turned around towards the railing of the bridge.

"I will jump!" She told me.

I chuckled silently. I know I am too bad but I can't deny I am enjoying this too much. She slowly lifts her feet from the ground, preparing herself for the jump.

"Waiting!" I replied, sensing the panic in her body with every minute passing by.

"Fine!" She responded, jumping into the ocean, I began to walk in her direction after I heard the water splash.

"This girl...has managed to win my heart," I mumbled, taking my shoes and watch off from me as I jumped into the cold ocean, diving in, holding my breath, I went a bit more inside when I saw Adah's body was going down, it wasn't struggling to come up, maybe she was just letting body drown, not knowing what else she can do. But I need to get her out of here before she goes too deep into the darkness, blocking my view and chance to save her in time.
