You Open The Door And It Happens To Be 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... open the door it's cold out here."

What is this some type of joke?!

"Answer the damn door. "

::door opens::

"Whatsup dude? Long time no see. I admire the place! Little but I like it. "

Make yourself at home.

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

Who...who are you?

"I am... you... I thought I told you this already. "

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

"It's my man. It is. I am you."

...

"Alright I will explain. I am the version of you behind all of the fears, time wasting, and doubts. I am the version of you...just the better version of you...the one that runs a bit faster than you ... on the treadmill, lifts harder, focuses more, and reads more than the...you...right now. I mean essentially I am absolutely incredible. I am the you...you've always desired 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 take a second to remind you of what you are aiming at. I cannot truly let you know when you'll show up again, but hey...I think I'd make a bit of a habit of seeing this dumb look on your face. Anyhow, I really wanted to show you the genuine you...the one that's not afraid of making choices and standing by them regardless. That blog you started, well you actually aren't meant to truly hear about this now, nonetheless it is crushing. Oh and don't worry about girls, just keep your head down for some time 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 don't really even mean it. "

So...

"Got to go! Things to do. Places to be. Good luck!."

::door opens and then slams shut::

::sits down on couch...::

Woah.
