You Open The Door... And It's You

By Evan Sanders


One night right before I was heading to bed, I heard a knock.

Uhmm Hello? Who is there?

"It's you?"

What?

"It's you... kindly open the door it's cold out here."

What's this some type of joke?!

"Answer the damn door. "

::door opens::

"Whatsup dude? Long time no see. I am keen on the place! Small but I am keen on it. "

Make yourself comfortable.

"Look I really don't have much time here because I have to run but I would like to chat to you really quick. Well, to be honest, I just wanted to turn up and surprise you. You know, start a fun relationship here? "

Who...who are you?

"I'm you... I believe that I told you this already. "

This isn't real. This really can't be real.

"It is my friend. It is. I am you."

...

"Alright I will explain. I am the version of you behind all the fears, worries and doubts. I am the version of you...just the better version of you...the one that runs a bit faster than you currently on the treadmill, lifts harder, focuses more, and reads more than the...you...right now. I mean basically I am absolutely awesome. I am the you...you've always wanted to be. "

So you mean to tell me...you are me...but like version 2.0?

"Lets not kid ourselves here, this has got to be like version 6.0. I mean look at you. "

I see...

"I just wanted to turn up and remind you of what you are working towards. I cannot actually tell you when you may show up again, but hey...I think I would like to make a fun habit of seeing this dumb look on your face. Anyway, I needed to show you the true you...the one that isn't fearful of making decisions and standing by them irrespective of everything else. That blog you started, well you are not really meant to actually hear about this right now, nonetheless it is crushing. Oh and really do not fret about girls, just keep your head down for a while and everything will work itself out. Oh...last thing, don't take the bad things people say personally. A great deal of the time they do not even mean it. "

So...

"Got to go! Things worth doing. Places to be. Good luck!."

::door opens and then slams shut::

::sits down on couch...::

Woah.
