Wizard's Confession Part 2

"I never asked you to earn me. I want only that you should need me. Your path is not one of merit. Bring the recurring desires of your mind to me, every time they emerge. They cannot shock me, for I willed them! Bring me your confusion, your fear, your craving, your anxiety, your inability to love the world, your hesitation to serve, your jealousy, all the deficiencies that defy your spiritual disciplines."

My first impression of Chase was back when I stumbled upon him and Maya back at Brass bar. I was there to ask Kathy something of utter importance, but instead I ran into the two. "THIS IS TERRIBLE!" he shouted, spitting up bits of food as Maya furrowed her eyebrows.

"What? But I followed your instructions exactly!" she spoke as Chase looked to her, glaring. "Well then, I suppose you missed a step or…ALL! I don't understand why I agreed to teach you!" Scary was the first thought that crossed my mind when I watched them as Maya was brought to tears running out of the Bar. That was back in winter of last year.

I tapped my knuckle on the door as it echoed in my head.  I nervously waited for Chase to answer the door while my heart began to beat like crazy. There was a long silence before the door swung to the side, opening as a male of orange hair and purple eyes poked his head out. "What is it?" He asked. I took a deep breath and swallowed the lump in my throat.

"Hello, Chase!" I smiled to him, "Um..." Shoot, I came here without thinking of a reason to hang out with him.

"Look, if you don't have anything to say then I'd suggest you leave." He sighed, now standing in front of me. He's wearing his usual summer clothes: a white class shirt, dark blue navy jeans with an apron over his chest down to his ankles. His way of…greeting me…puts more pressure on me.
"Um, well you see, I-"
"You know it's daunting to speak to someone you don't know very well." I froze, rejected before even starting. "If you're not going to say anything then I'm going back inside." He said, closing the door. I hung my head in depression, now heading to Harmonica town. Finn flew by my side, "I-It's okay Hikari-chan! We'll get him next time!" he said, trying to cheer me up. I sighed as I dragged my feet up the slope towards the Wizard's home.
