Not a Contest Winner, But I Like It
A fun read
(I entered this into a contest at my previous workplace).
“Uuugh,” he said as he woke up with a throbbing headache. He slowly began to regain his sight, and realizing from the little he could see that his surroundings were unfamiliar, he shrieked in fear exclaiming, "Where am I?"
In the palm of utter confusion and soaked by its sweat, he tried desperately to remember the events preceding his current situation, all to no avail. He then started to scope the scene around him in hopes of finding an object of familiarity.
Just as he began to lose all expectancy of something close to relief, his eyes were drawn to a familiar blue silhouette. He quickly jumped on his feet and rushed toward what he thought was his only hope of understanding his o-so-peculiar situation, slowly but steadily approaching his destination.
He finally reached his sea-blue joy-bringer after what felt like an eternity. Noticing what it was, he lighted up in ecstasy, at long last comprehending his predicament. How just a few words on a sky-blue paperback can bring so much clarity.
He read out the words in nostalgic euphoria as if to confirm that he had indeed received his greatly desired peace of mind, saying, "We’re the One for you."
I tried 😅😅
What do y’all think?
Let me know in the Comments.
