"WHAT?!"
I nodded.
"WHY?!"
"Because, I want to bring Bobby back to life for Olivia." I said, smiling.
"...Wh-what?"
"He died saving my sister."
"Oh..." The Origami Craftsman nodded. "Alright then. Fine. Do it if you want. For your sister."
"Oh, thank you! She'll be grateful from the very bottom of her heart!" I opened a drawer on his Origami table and counted the remaning sheets. "We hardly have enough."
"How many are there?"
"Not even ten." My beaming happiness vanished. "It won't work this time."
"No way! We'll make your sister happy!" The Origami Craftsman said. "Why don't you find all those cranes you used that time?"
"Sorry to upset you but...those "cranes" was the Princess' army."
"They were Toads?"
I nodded. "Unfortunately."
The Origami Craftsman counted the paper. "Nine...out of a thousand." He hesitated for a moment. "I'll be the tenth."
"What?!" I shook my head. "No way, father! You won't be able to come back after you become a crane! I will not do that to you!"
He smiled. "Nice to see how much you've changed, Olly. Before, you wouldn't have even cared and done it without hesitating. Now look at you." He spread his arms out to either side of himself. "Fold me, Olly! I want to see why you like being Origami!"
"Father, no! I won't!"
"You're not doing this for yourself this time, Olly! You're doing it for Olivia, remember?"
I smacked him. "What has gotten over you? I will not do this, even if I had to die!"
He pat me on the head, as I had fallen to my knees. "Olly, I won't be gone forever."
I said nothing.
He smiled. "Don't worry, Olly. I know what I'm doing. I've known Origami my whole life!"
"R-really?" I gasped. "You'll come back? I know I had not..."
"Ohoho! The only reason you didn't was because you had died before that!" He laughed. "If you hadn't you would have been alive and well for two whole years!"
I stood. "Alright. This is your last chance to choose. Do you want to be folded?"
"Fold away, Olly!" He held his arms out again. "For Olivia?"
A slight smile appeared on my face. "For Olivia."
