Forty Nine -(R18)

I waited for her to grab the rope, but she was still pouting.

Is she a few screws loose or what?

"Please hold onto the rope," I requested softly.

Her expression softened, and she held the rope with both hands.

Seeing that she was ready, I braced my leg against the well and pulled hard.

"WHAT THE HELL!" The rope didn't budge…at all!

That was shocking.

I looked down to see, and she was still waiting. The bucket was still floating on the water; nothing was stuck, so why couldn't I pull?

It might be something stuck, so I tried again.

Forget pulling; it didn't even move.

I looked down again. "Lady, are your legs stuck somewhere?"

She raised one leg to show and then the other.

Although it was dark, I could see that her legs weren't stuck.

What the hell is going on?

This time I bent down and looked inside the well, grabbing the rope so I could see where it might be stuck.
