The Strings

         I wrote a lesson plan for my internship yesterday, but today's internship had to be canceled because I had an epileptic incident yesterday. My girlfriend helped me a lot with the incident, even helping me to the front seat of the car while it happened, the look in her eyes was of a strong kindness and empathy, I appreciate her help greatly.

Here's today's story:

The Strings

         A deity laid in a place that wasn't quite part of our reality, but also not separate either. She lazily held out her hand and strings fell from her fingertips into our reality. They attached themselves to an ordinary young man. Everyday he passed by a girl he had a crush on but couldn't bring himself to speak to her. But this day the strings of the deity latched onto him and pulled him close to his crush. The strings then pulled his mouth open and made him speak. The crush blushed and agreed to join him for dinner.

         The deity then pulled her strings away from the young boy and attached them to a woman many miles away. The woman was in a job interview, her possible new boss locking his eyes on her. Some of the strings attached to her knees and make them shake. The others grabbed hold of her heart and shook at it. The woman grew nervous and lost all composure. The employer wasn't impressed by her lack of composure and sent her away.

          The strings then flew to a middle aged man who stood next to the edge of the roof. The man looked over the edge with both conviction and doubt. He had many reasons to step over the edge, but many others to step back. One string attached to his head the others to his arms. His arms were then pulled over the edge. The man screamed as his head was pulled over as well and he plummeted to the ground.

           The deity laughed at her game as she enjoyed it so much. The strings then broke. She always hated it when this happened as her game had to stop for her to make new strings. So she pulled out a spinning wheel enchanted with the essence of emotions to weave more strings for her game.
