She spotted the house and went up to the room, poking her head through first to make sure it was the right one before bringing in her entire body. It was, and it made her glad that she could at least do one simple thing right. Time is running out though, and there’s not much time to look around. She gets straight to it, and goes in for the dive.
They aren’t on a stage, but she can almost feel the lights dim, someone directing the spotlight onto them. How corny, she thinks, but that’s not the point. She can do it, she can do it. She has to; it’s her last chance to see him. This is it, this is really it…just a little further, and she’ll kiss him. She deserves that much at least, even if she’s not the one he loves. A little more, a little more…
But she can’t, and she stops. It’s pathetic, but good all in the same. Her goodbyes are said, wishes that will never come true, and she’s done. That’s it. Her grand finale for her last appearance and the best thing she could do was a confession. She’s gives one last smile, and takes her leave. The spotlight goes out, and all that’s left is the darkness that the act began with.
